Chapter 35 (1/2)
Liu Shuang's dismissal is regarded as a turning point in the death of the queen, which is also recorded in historical books. After Liu Shuang's dismissal, empress Wang and concubine Xiao Shufei were beaten 100 times by Wu Mei and then executed.
Li Hong opened, closed, opened and closed the wooden boxes of the two Linglong pagodas that Wang Jingjin dedicated to himself. In order to confuse Liu Shuang and Wang Jing, let them believe that they are just an active child.
”Daiwang, this is what the Marquis of Jinyang has found for you. At that time, the minister once told Wang Jing about the fact that you were in the lakeside hall and accidentally smashed the envoy of Kucha state and entered the Linglong tower dedicated to his majesty. Unexpectedly, Wang Jing was a man of heart. He had gone through many hardships to find these two buildings for you. In this way, you can go back to the palace and make amends to your majesty. What's more, if you are young this year, your majesty will not blame you. ” Liu Shuang looked at Dai Wang's absent-minded turning over the box and said.
”Yes, Daiwang. On that day, when I heard my uncle talk about it, I was very anxious. Although I had never met him, I was well known for his brilliant intelligence in Chang'an city. Naturally, I admired him very much. So I visited Chang'an, Luoyang and other places, and finally let the Minister find the blessing of the king.” Wang Jing listens to Liu Shuang already in speak for him, hastily follow say.
”Cluck, thank you for Jinyang Marquis's intention. If it wasn't for your exquisite pagoda, I would not dare to go back to the palace. Now that I have this treasure, I will not be afraid to be reprimanded by my father and mother.” Li Hong was paralyzed on the futon like no bones, and said with his upper body lying on the table.
”Ah?” Liu Shuang was surprised and said, ”Daiwang, you don't plan to go back to the palace today. I also want to invite you to enjoy the night view of Chang'an. The newly built big wild goose pagoda rises into the clouds. But as a symbol of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, how about tomorrow's Minister accompanying you to enjoy the big wild goose pagoda before returning to the palace?”
”Thank you for your kindness. I've been out of the palace for more than a month. If I don't go back, I'm afraid it's not appropriate. My father and mother will blame me even more. What's more, it's reasonable to go back to the palace with the treasures of the Marquis of Jinyang today. Alas It's just
Liu Shuang and Wang Jing look at each other and listen to each other. The king of this generation is afraid to say that he lost his maiden.
”Just what? I also ask the acting king to show you that if you can do it for the king, you will die and do your best. ” Wang Jing asked in a hurry.
”When she returned to the Marquis of Jinyang, it was the maid who was close to the king who had escaped. Yesterday, the king ordered her to go out to do some errands. Unexpectedly, she never came back, and there was no news.” The summer solstice stood aside to answer for the vexed Daiwang.
”Ah, what else?” Wang Jing's tone is full of excitement and a trace of pity.
Excited, Dai Wang never thought that his maiden had been hijacked. Unfortunately, the pair of Linglong pagodas were given to him in vain.
”No, I met you at the gate of Ci'en Temple yesterday. I was leading them to look for you.” Li Hong depressed small face said, Wang Jing and Liu Shuang look changes have been his eyes.
”I don't know if you can find him?” Liu Shuang's eyes flashed a trace of ease and asked.
”I didn't find it. Forget it. It's just a maid in palace. With this exquisite tower, I don't blame me for losing a maid.” Li Hong carefully handed the wooden boxes of the two Linglong pagodas to Xiazhi and asked her to put them away.
”Well In that case, I will not delay your return to the palace, and you will leave first. ” Liu Shuang looked out at the gradually dark sky and said.
”Well, you should step down. Li Hong, thank you again for your kindness. On the summer solstice, send me the Zhongshu order and go back with the Marquis of Jinyang. ”
After Liu Shuang and Wang Jing disappeared, the laziness on Li Hong's face disappeared. His small face became a little dignified and murmured: ”I can't imagine that Liu Shuang has also participated in this, but what is a maid in waiting for
”Why did Dai Wang conclude that Liu Shuang was involved in abducting Bailu?” Mang Zhong was a little confused. He had heard the conversation from the beginning to the end. He didn't think that Liu Shuang was involved.
”Liu Shuang asked me to stay in Chang'an City for more than one night, which proves that there must be a deal between them.” Li Hong patted his forehead and explained, ”Liu Shuang invited me to appreciate the fake Dayan Pagoda, and tested the truth of my return to the palace today. If I agreed to his invitation, he would naturally doubt whether I had any motive. This would only make him act carefully, and even for the sake of safety, it would probably arouse his suspicion. It would not be to kill Bailu to kill his mouth No way. ”
”Will he not kill Bailu when you go back to the palace today?” Grain size is still not clear.
”Well, that's stupid. Those two Linglong pagodas are the reason why they give me back to the palace. I can't go back until I go back. Only in this way can I prove that I don't care about the maids, but only the Linglong tower, which can make them relax their vigilance. At least they won't want to kill Bailu to get rid of the suspicion. ”
He nodded thoughtfully and then suddenly asked, ”do you plan to go back to the palace today?”
”Come back to you. Bailu hasn't been found. How can I go back to the palace? I can't let my mother clean me up when I go back. I don't want to talk nonsense with you. You go and get Jingzhe and Cheetah back. Now it's basically certain that Bailu is in Ci'en Temple. It's useless for them to stay there. If they are found out, they may harm Bailu. ”Grain of grain should be busy to run out, but dare not ask why, ask again, Daiwang will certainly be impatient, and then he should have good fruit to eat.
