MTL - Unparalleled Concubine-Chapter 144 night returner
Chapter 144
This kind of question is the most test of the character of a prince. If the seventh prince is angry with Li Xin at this time, or begins to become suspicious, then Li Xin can no longer continue to cooperate with him no matter what.
The Seventh Prince lowered his head slightly, reached out and poured a glass of sake for Li Xin, and said softly, "It's not a bad thing for Brother Xin to go to Prince Qi's mansion..."
Having said that, he looked up at Li Xin and smiled: "After all, our biggest opponent in the future is my fourth brother. If Brother Xin knows him better, we will be more confident in the future."
This answer can be said to be the perfect standard answer.
This kind of answer cannot be answered without a certain emotional intelligence.
Li Xin squinted his eyes and smiled: "I thought His Highness would care a little about this. Since His Highness doesn't mind, I can rest assured."
The seventh prince moved slightly in his heart.
For now, Li Xin has become an indispensable assistant in the Wei Palace. Before he ascended the throne, he could not lose Li Xin as an assistant no matter what.
In the past, Li Xin only had the choice of Prince Wei's Mansion, so the seventh prince was not too worried. Now it seems that the fourth prince, Ji Huan, has also noticed Li Xin, so Ji Wen must bet on Li Xin. .
He wants to keep Li Xincaicheng.
This Prince Wei squinted his eyes and laughed softly: "If I remember correctly, Brother Xin is sixteen years old this year?"
Li Xin raised his head and glanced at the seventh prince, put down the chopsticks in his hand, and said softly: "I am a second-year born in Chengde. According to the virtual age, this year should be seventeen years old."
In this era, age is generally calculated according to the fictitious years. In the past, Li Xin was based on the habits of his previous life, so he called himself sixteen years old. If you calculate it carefully, he should be seventeen years old this year.
Ji Wen chuckled and said, "It's time to marry a wife and have children at the age of seventeen. You are very familiar with my sister, she is one year younger than you. I will write to the royal father in a few days and ask the royal father to promise her. How about you?"
Now, Li Xin has no worries about food and clothing, and has become an official in Yulinwei. In a short period of time, the seventh prince Ji Wen can take action, except for future promises, there is only such a girl left.
The promise of the future is illusory, but the ninth princess is real, and His Royal Highness King Wei also knows that his sister is interested in Li Xin, and this smooth relationship is perfect.
If Li Xin became his brother-in-law, then he would no longer be able to get off the chariot of the Wei Palace.
Li Xin lowered his head and said softly, "Your Highness, this matter...don't worry."
Ji Wen chuckled: "Why, Brother Xin doesn't like that girl of mine?"
Li Xin shook his head slightly.
"Princess of Qinghe, Zhong Lingyuxiu, is also golden branches and jade leaves, and others would not dare to look at them at first glance. How could Li Xin have the idea of choosing among others, but Li Xin's status is too low now, and His Majesty will probably not allow it, even if it is allowed, in the future... It doesn't look good either."
If Li Xin married Ji Lingxiu, the ninth princess now, he would become the consort of the Ji family. When he does things as consort, then no matter what he does, he will be labeled as nepotism.
In fact, Li Xin still likes the greedy little princess, but at this time, his "stature" is still too short. In the future, when his status is similar to that of Princess Qinghe, or even higher, let's talk about it again. This is more appropriate.
He is 16 years old this year. The Qinghe Princess is only 15 years old. It can be said that he still has two children. It is too early to talk about marriage at this age.
The seventh prince nodded and said in a low voice, "I can probably understand what Brother Xin means, don't worry, if Xiao Jiu's marriage is brought up by the father, the queen, and the concubine, I will try to suppress it."
The seventh prince is the elder brother of Ji Lingxiu, the ninth princess, and he is quite powerful in the court and the opposition. If the ninth princess wants to marry, it must be approved by the seventh prince.
However, the marriage in the heavenly family cannot be held for too long. With Ji Lingxiu's age, she must get married in three years at most.
Thinking of this, His Royal Highness King Wei glanced at Li Xin.
Three years...I don't know where you and I will go after three years.
The two exchanged cups while discussing their future actions. When the moon was in the middle of the sky, Li Xincai stood up staggeringly and cupped hands to Ji Wen: "His Royal Highness, I'm here today, I'll go back first. already."
His Royal Highness King Wei stood up to keep Li Xin, hehe smiled and said, "Brother Xin, it's already midnight, so you stay here for one night, and I'll ask the servants to arrange a guest room for you, and you can leave tomorrow morning."
Li Xin was the overlord of the wine field in his last life, but his body has not been trained by alcohol after all, and now he is a little dizzy, he shook his head and said, "His Royal Highness, there is a girl waiting in my family, If I don't go back, she probably won't sleep."
The seventh prince kept him in every possible way, but Li Xin still insisted on going home. In desperation, Ji Wen could only send a carriage to take Li Xin back to Datongfang.
Before getting on the carriage, Li Xin's wine had sobered up a bit, he bent over to Ji Wen and said, "Your Highness, folks sell wine, I can start from the proud building, most likely there will be no problem, but this wine can If I can't enter the army, I have no way to intervene. It all depends on His Highness to mediate in the court. This is the most important thing for us in the recent period of time, and His Highness must do his best."
His Royal Highness Prince Wei nodded and said solemnly: "Don't worry, Brother Xin, I will take advantage of it, and I will definitely try my best to accomplish this. If it really doesn't work, I will go directly to the father and give it to him. old man."
Dedicating it directly to the emperor, although the effect is slightly inferior to the strategy set by Li Xin before, but it is also a backup method. Li Xin nodded and stepped into the carriage of the Wei Wangfu.
"His Royal Highness, I won't go out for a few days. After the wine has been steamed for dozens of jars, Your Highness remember to have someone come to the Princess Palace to let me know."
Steaming wine is naturally impossible to do in the palace of the King of Wei. You need to find another workshop, and you have to use your own people. The most important thing is to do confidentiality work.
These are all very trivial troubles, but Li Xin doesn't need to worry about these things. He only needs to make up an idea and hand it over to the Wei Palace to do it, and this Prince Wei will do all the trivial things beautifully.
This is also the reason why Li Xin temporarily attached to the Wei Palace.
If this is himself making steamed wine, it is estimated that someone should come to the door and **** something soon after making it.
Ji Wen said softly, "Brother Xin, don't worry."
The purple carriage slowly left Yonglefang and headed towards Datongfang in the south of the city.
Despite the curfew, the Jingzhao Mansion, which was patrolling the city, did not dare to stop the carriage of the Prince Wei Mansion. In the second half of the night, the carriage arrived at Datongfang smoothly. Li Xin stepped out of the carriage and looked up to see his yard.
In the yard, the lights were still dimly lit.
Zhong Xiaoxiao is an extremely insecure girl. After the charcoal seller left, she dared not turn off the lights by herself, and she didn't dare to sleep.
Only Li Xin or Cui Jiuniang can sleep peacefully when they are near her.
Li Xin shook his head, took out the key from his sleeve, and opened the gate to the courtyard.
