The story of Princess Xiatang's counterattack

Chapter 669 Speculation
Chapter 669 Speculation
In Zhongyun Courtyard, Wanyue heard that Siyun came to report that the butler had come, she couldn't help being a little surprised, she didn't know what was going on, and ordered Siyun to invite him in.

The steward greeted Wan Yue first, and then relayed, "The old slave was only busy with the affairs of the house, and didn't come to ask you if your trip went well in the past two days. It's really the old slave's fault."

"The housekeeper is serious," Wan Yue was quite patient with the housekeeper, "the people in the house are very considerate, there is nothing wrong with it."

The butler breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good. I don't know if the princess will still go to listen to the book tomorrow? The old slave should make arrangements earlier."

Hearing what the housekeeper said, Wan Yue waved her hand and said, "The storyteller in Bailu Pavilion is really good, the story is short and concise, not procrastinating at all, I'm in a good mood, I've finished listening to the short paragraph today, and I won't talk about it tomorrow." I have gone. Besides, if you leave the mansion again, I will let you know in advance, and it is hard work for you to take care of the family affairs of the Wangfu, so you don't have to worry about me anymore."

The housekeeper finally breathed a sigh of relief, said some polite words to Wan Yue, and then bowed to leave.

After leaving Zhongyun Courtyard and entering Xiaoyun Courtyard again, the housekeeper polished up Wan Yue's words and reported it to Xia Houxian.

Xia Houxian nodded after hearing this, because Wanyue was out of the mansion these two days, he was also afraid that Wanyue would be a demon, so the battle he sent out was a bit big, and the talkative people added fuel and jealousy, and the matter had already spread to his father. in the king's ears.

If Wanyue leaves the mansion tomorrow, Xia Houxian is considering whether to reduce the number of people by half. Although he is proud of himself now, he can't be a prodigal in the eyes of his father.

If Wanyue is not going to leave the mansion tomorrow, it will save a lot of energy, Xia Houxian asked the steward to call the accompanying guards, and he had to ask if anything happened.

The butler came out of Xiaoyun Courtyard, wiped his sweat in reality, and was sandwiched by two hostile masters, it was really hard to be a human being.

In particular, both of them are not worry-free masters.

Sighing, the butler went to find the accompanying chief guard.

The chief guard was called to the study room, and when his master asked if anything happened, he told the story about how the princess met Ning Wang's family at the gate of the White Deer Pavilion today, and then that the princess Ning invited the princess to sit with her.

After he finished speaking, Xia Houlian let him go down.

When the two women got together, they just chatted about family affairs. There was nothing worthy of his attention, just.I don’t know when Princess Ning liked Wanyue very much. Last time she invited Wanyue to talk to her mansion, and now she heard all the books and went together. With Wanyue’s temperament, she can still make friends. Xia Houlian really felt a little bit Incredible.

Xia Houlian was surprised, but he didn't pay much attention. Jinse happened to come over. Every day at this time, Jinse would bring some freshly made snacks for him to taste. Xiahoulian was quite happy immersed in the gentle countryside , There is no time to think about those who have not.

In the palace, Xia Houzan had more and more excerpts secretly playing Xiahou's title.

Because Xia Houzan acted too much when he first gained power, and violated Xia Houzan's taboo, Xia Houzan has been ordering people to watch Xia Houzan's every move.

At this time, just after reading the various actions of Xia Houzan in the memorial, the anger in Xia Houzan's heart seemed not as strong as before.

It's not that he's not angry, but he's used to it.

Xia Houzan browsed through one by one in a very flat manner, then put the notebooks aside without any fluctuation in his expression, and then began to deal with the daily notebooks.

Such a calm look, if others saw it, they might think that Xia Houzan was only looking at some unimportant things, but the great eunuch Chen Jinzhong who stood beside him read the contents of the memorial verbatim.

He was shocked, obviously he had already reminded the queen before that Prince Duan's behavior had angered the emperor, and he repeatedly emphasized to the queen that Prince Duan should restrain himself, even if it was only a month or two, it would be better than now.

Why did Prince Duan act more and more perversely after he said it?
How good is this!

As an official in the palace, there is no one who does not seek a way out for himself. Chen Jinzhong was able to report to the queen before. One of the meanings is that the queen once helped her. He did this to repay her kindness, but more because he wanted to stand Duanwang team.

Duan Wang is not the leader, but he has the respect of the emperor, and it is undoubtedly a certainty to win the throne in the future.

If Chen Jinzhong can join King Duan's faction in time, when he ascends the throne, he will be able to find a place for himself.

He is old and has nothing to ask for, he just wants to spend his old age in peace and die.

However, by acting like this, King Duan was obviously cutting off his own way out. The calmer the emperor is now, the more dissatisfied he is with King Duan.

To what extent this dissatisfaction will accumulate and explode, Chen Jinzhong has no idea at all.

Now, Chen Jinzhong can't help but wonder in his heart, for the sake of his past kindness, he has done a lot for the Queen and Prince Duan, will he find another way out in the future?

Now it seems that Prince Duan is no longer the best candidate in the emperor's heart.

It's just that Prince Ning's qualifications are too mediocre, and his background is not good, so the emperor never thought of passing the throne to King Ning.The sixth prince, Xia Houyu, has no ideas of his own, but King Duan follows his lead and is impulsive, which is not within the scope of the emperor's consideration.The fourth and fifth princes were never noticed by the emperor.

Only the youngest Prince Rui, Xia Houqi, was left, but Prince Rui was too young to be playful, and although he had a good background, Prince Rui didn't seem to care much about the throne.

The imperial concubine has been working hard secretly, but the effect is not great, the imperial concubine is more anxious than Prince Rui himself.

After guessing and guessing, Chen Jinzhong was in trouble for a while. Although he had served the emperor by his side since he was a child, he was not a roundworm in the emperor's stomach. He could guess some things, and some things he couldn't.

It is fine to assist the emperor in an steady manner, but once the emperor abdicates, all the eunuchs who have assisted the emperor will be transferred to places far away from the political core, and few will stay with the emperor to serve him.

Chen Jinzhong has served the emperor for many years, and he always said the same thing everywhere in the palace. It is even more common for someone to feel dissatisfied with him. Who didn't come here in the palace like this?
If the eunuchs at the bottom were living comfortably, who would try their best to climb up?

After those old people who served the Supreme Emperor were transferred to various places, the final result would not be very good. Chen Jinzhong didn't want to end up in that kind of result, so he wanted to plan a way out for himself when he was in power.

What Chen Jinzhong is looking for is a place to stay. It would be best if he could be released from the palace. It is his extravagant desire to spend the rest of his life in peace with one mu of land outside.

He has seen too many intrigues in the palace, and Chen Jinzhong doesn't want to experience these things again when he is old.

Now it seems that Prince Duan has almost been given up by the emperor, so how to choose the master next is a big matter.

Standing behind the emperor, Chen Jinzhong seemed to be serving the emperor conscientiously, but in fact he had already made several turns in his heart.

Fortunately, when the princes came to test him before, he behaved normally, as if he was impartial, and he didn't show any particular affection for Prince Duan. Now it seems much easier to stand in line again.

Chen Jinzhong's heart turned a thousand times, Xia Houzan didn't know that this playmate who served him since childhood had grown to such an extent.

When Xia Houzan finished the last memorial, the anger in his heart had already been extinguished, and what he got instead was a bone-chilling coolness. Xia Houzan really impressed him with admiration.

Or the prince has already acted like this, if he is established as the prince in the future, what will he do?
Do you dare to kill the king and father?
