MTL - Unparalleled Concubine-Chapter 19 future and present
Chapter 19 Future and Present
Above the court, you don't have to understand anything else. There is only one thing you must understand, that is, you need to know how to advance and retreat. Take a few steps.
For example, in the current Pingnanhou Mansion, the big-character poster incident in the capital, no matter what, the Pingnanhou Mansion would also be implicated, and the minimum fine is also required. Although the Pingnanhou Mansion does not care about the money, as long as it is After the official punishment came down, the face of Pingnanhou Mansion was also lost.
However, the emperor had an old relationship with the Li family and was unwilling to embarrass the Pingnanhou Mansion, so he only let Dong Cheng sneak into the Pingnanhou Mansion and scolded Mrs. Yu for a meal. There was no official punishment at all, but the Jingzhao Yin Li Ye fell badly and fell from the position of the third-grade to the fourth-grade for no reason.
This is the difference between closeness and distance in the imperial era. Sometimes it doesn't matter what you do, what matters is your identity.
After Dong Cheng left Pingnanhou Mansion, the gate of Pingnanhou Mansion was closed, and it was announced that from today onwards it would be closed to thank guests, and that Jing Zhaoyin, who had blood mold, was not only demoted, but also continued to suffer. Working in Jingzhao Mansion can be described as a tragic event in the world.
Just when Dong Cheng returned to the palace to resume his life, the seventh son, dressed in a normal cotton-padded suit, personally carried a leg of lamb and knocked on the door of the small courtyard where Li Xin was.
Li Xin opened the courtyard door and bowed his hands to this mysterious Seventh Young Master: "I have seen Seventh Young Master."
Seventh Young Master showed Li Xin the leg of lamb in his hand, and then said with a smile: "The barbecue that I ate at your place last time was very delicious, and this Young Master specially asked someone to get a sheep on the grassland, just now Kill it, and you will bake a few skewers for this young master later."
Li Xin was speechless and looked at this might be the seventh son of the royal family.
These guys, are they fed up and have nothing to do? For a few skewers of mutton, they made a special trip to find themselves.
But now, he has no way to refuse this Seventh Young Master. After all, the lives of their "family of three" still depend on this Seventh Young Master, and they have to bow their heads under the eaves.
After a while, another charcoal fire was lit, and a few skewers of mutton were placed on the fire and grilled back and forth. Li Xin handed the grilled skewers to Qi Gongzi, and opened his mouth tentatively. Asked: "Seventh Young Master is here to find you... is this for this?"
Seventh Young Master took a bite of the mutton kebab, chewing it and said, "It's mainly for this, and the other is to tell you that your matter is settled, probably tomorrow Jingzhao House will withdraw the wanted for you, the people of Tianmujian. I won't catch you anymore, you don't have to hide in the yard every day."
Li Xin stood up and bowed to the Seventh Young Master: "I'm here, thank you Seventh Young Master."
In the past few days, Li Xin thought about the incident carefully, and finally found that he was indeed too impulsive. If nothing else, his big-character poster suspected of "smearing the emperor" was enough to be deceived. He had been beheaded more than a dozen times. If it wasn't for this Seventh Young Master, even if the Son of Heaven didn't trouble him, the people in Jingzhao Mansion would probably not let him go.
Fortunately, this time, the Seventh Young Master, who did not know where he came from, helped Li Xin out of this siege.
Seventh Young Master smiled and said: "Don't be so polite, this matter is mainly because you will come to it yourself, and after you get the poem out, this Young Master can follow the trend, otherwise this Young Master will not be able to confront Jingzhao Mansion head-on. "
Li Xin sat next to the charcoal fire again and continued to grill the mutton kebabs. After a long time, he raised his head and asked, "Young Master Qi... After all, there will be no purpose, can I ask Master Qi's purpose? "
Seventh Young Master threw the bamboo stick in his hand aside and said lightly, "It's useless to tell you these things now, you just need to remember that you owe this Young Master a huge favor, and if this Young Master needs your help in the future If you can help the place, you don't need to deny the account."
Li Xin fell silent.
He has guessed some of the purpose of the seventh son in his heart. The seventh son's surname is Ji, so there is a high probability that he is one of the princes today. If he wants to successfully ascend the throne, he must obtain the support of as many ministers as possible, and Pingnan Houfu is a good target to win over.
Because the Marquis of Pingnan is not only high and powerful, but Marquis Pingnan also has... military power!
Thinking of this, Li Xin suddenly opened his mouth and asked thoughtlessly, "Seventh son...isn't your relationship with Li Chun?"
Li Chun is the son of Pingnan Houfu, the cheap brother of Li Xin.
Young Master Qi was stunned for a while, looked at Li Xin in surprise, then smiled relievedly, and said softly, "I can't say it's bad, I can only say that I'm not familiar."
Seventh Young Master hesitated for a while, and then said.
"Li Chun is very close to one of my older brothers."
Having said that, this seventh young master has almost admitted his identity as a prince, Li Xin handed over a skewer of grilled meat, and said, "Seven young masters, there are some things I need to clarify with you, before I go down. I just said, I will never have any connection with the Pingnan Marquis Mansion in the next life. If the Seventh Young Master wants to use it to influence or control the Pingnan Marquis Mansion, then the Seventh Young Master...you don't have to waste your efforts."
Seventh Young Master threw an empty bamboo stick aside, wiped his mouth with a silk handkerchief, and smiled: "What a smart Li Erlang, he can guess so many things with just a few words."
"Don't worry, it's never mandatory for this son to be kind, and no one can tell what will happen in the future. In the future, if you can help this son, you can help me, if you can't, then pull it down, and this son won't blame you for anything. ."
Having said this, the seventh young master laughed and said: "But you are so smart, even if you don't enter the Pingnanhou Mansion, you may be able to have a career of your own in the future."
Li Xin stuffed a bunch of grilled meat skewers into his mouth, and then said softly: "Don't worry, Seventh Young Master, you are a person with a good memory. I will remember the kindness of Seventh Young Master today, and there will be opportunities in the future. I will definitely repay Seventh Young Master."
Seventh Young Master squinted his eyes and said, "Let's not talk about things in the future, this Young Master has something that you can do right now, and I want your help."
"Seventh Young Master, please speak."
Seventh Young Master pointed to the fire in front of him, squinted his eyes and said, "You have to write down the method of kebabs and give it to me. I won't be able to see you for a while in the future, so I will bring the method to you. Go home and let the servants at home follow along."
Li Xin heard the words, and after a pause, he said, "Seventh Young Master...why can't you see me?"
"Oh, I forgot to tell you."
Seventh Young Master smiled and said: "From tomorrow onwards, the internal guards in the palace will send people to protect you. With them, it is inconvenient for me to show my face, lest your Majesty know that I am the push-hand in this matter, but it is not good. It's over, so I won't see you again in the future."
Li Xin nodded, went back to the room and wrote down the specific process and ingredients of the mutton skewers on a piece of paper, and then handed it to the seventh son.
Seventh Young Master took the piece of paper, carefully tucked it into his sleeve, and smiled softly at Li Xin: "That Young Master will go back now, if you are in a hurry to find this Young Master, go to the proud building to find Jiuniang. , she has a way to contact me."
Li Xin bowed his hands to him.
"Thank you, Seventh Young Master."
