The Empress Wants To Be Deposed! - Chapter 42

Song Jinning quickly understood why the Mrs. Lin Chuan did not bring her daughter, but her son to come to see the Queen Mother Song.

In fact, it was shown to the Queen Mother Song.

But it was not for the Empress Dowager Song to see Li Chengxuan, but for Li Xiyan to see the Empress Dowager Song.

In short, this is just about his son Princess Shang.

Because the meaning expressed in her words is too obvious.

First, I praised my son. From his appearance to the point of learning, I wish I could say that there is nothing in the sky. At the end, there is a saying that this child is not yet married. No one is a fool. No one can hear her. What does it mean?

Song Jinning sat in the upper position and turned his head to look at the son of Mrs. Lin Chuan.

She couldn’t tell if she had learned it, but in all fairness, she looks pretty good.

It belongs to Junmei. As the saying goes, the face is like a powder, and the lips are covered with vermilion. That’s probably what you are talking about, right?

He wears a light lilac round neck brocade robe with lotus flowers embroidered on the cuffs. With a white jade crown on his head and black hair like ink, he looks like a wealthy young man, and his gestures are also very decent.

But Song Jinning always felt that there was something missing on this person.

It may be the spirit, spirit, or connotation?

Anyway, if Song Jinning were to be chosen, Song Jinning would definitely not choose such a person to be her husband.

She turned her head to look at Li Xiyan, and saw that the child turned her head away and looked out the window, not looking at anyone in the house at all.

But Song Jinning saw that her cheek facing her was flushed like a layer of rouge, and she knew she was shy.

Originally, no one could be as thick-skinned as her. The average woman in this era would be shy to hear someone say this kind of lalang match in front of her face, not to mention that Li Xiyan was originally a very quiet girl.

The Queen Mother Song didn’t think about it, but didn’t like Mrs. Lin Chuan’s son. It’s very simple. Even Song Jinning didn’t look down on anyone, and she would definitely not look down on someone as shrewd as the Queen Mother Song.

Seeing Li Xiyan sitting uncomfortable, she told her: “It’s hot in this room. Go upstairs with your emperor’s wife to cool off.”

Li Xiyan was anxious, and hurriedly responded with a yes, got up and stood up.

Song Jinning was too lazy to sit here and talk to these ladies. Either to praise them, or to promote their own daughters and sons and so on, which is so boring.

Now that he got this beautiful job with Li Xiyan, he naturally agreed immediately.

The two cousins ​​went upstairs side by side. After going around every floor, finally slowly climbed to the fifth floor.

Song Jinning was a little afraid of heights and didn’t dare to get too close to the outer railing. Standing by the door, while holding the door frame with her hand, she slowly looked out.

How about climbing high and looking into the distance, it feels different when standing high and looking at the scenery.

The wind at high places is stronger than that on the flat ground, and the hair and clothes are blowing. Song Jinning felt that she was very happy now, and she really felt like she wanted to go to the blue sky and see the moon.

Compared with Song Jinning who dared not lean too close to the railing, Li Xiyan was obviously more courageous in this regard.

Because she actually sat directly on the outermost beauty. One arm was still on the railing, and the probe looked down.

Gu Yu and Bai Lu were even worse. They stood by the railing, only half of their bodies were pushed outside. The other servants who followed were all standing under the promenade outside looking at the scenery.

Song Jinning: …

So she is the only one for the coward.

Gu Yu, the little conscientious person, even beckoned to her: “Manny, come here. It’s very windy here, and it’s blowing so comfortable.”

Even Bai Lu, who had always talked little, nodded in agreement.

Song Jinning: The wind on the roof is bigger and it blows more comfortably. Why don’t you two just jump on the roof and blow the air?

Then I thought about it, with the efforts of the two of them, it is really very common for them to jump to the top of the building…

Forget it, she’d better stand by the door frame honestly.

I didn’t want Gu Yu to come over for a while, helping her to move forward.

Song Jinning was frightened, her legs were a little soft, and she repeatedly asked what she was going to do.

I saw Gu Yu winking and beckoning her to look downstairs. While leaning over, he whispered in her ear: “The princess has been looking at a man. I don’t want to go over and see?”

Song Jinning: What does it mean that the princess has been watching a man? She is obviously a good girl with a thin face, and she blushed just now when she heard Mrs. Lin Chuan’s promotion of her son downstairs.

But I was still very curious. He asked Gu Yu: “Where, where? Help me go and take a look.”

The heart of gossip is burning, and there is no fear of heights.

The hand holding Gu Yu slowly moved forward, standing still two steps away from the railing. Looking down Gu Yu’s fingers, he saw a group of men below.

But even if there were a group of men, it did not prevent Song Jinning from being able to immediately lock onto the man Li Xiyan was watching.

Because that man’s figure is really tall and straight.

About twenty years old, he wears a black arrow jacket with a black leather belt around his waist, with a shoulder width and a thin waist. Based on the height, it must be a pair of long legs.

He still held a machete in his left hand, his profile was sturdy, and he was full of vigor no matter how you look at it.

Song Jinning glanced twice, then quietly turned to look at Li Xiyan.

Seeing that Li Xiyan seemed to be stunned, the corners of his lips were raised unconsciously. A little white jade face was blushing all over.

The whole thing is a young girl who is pregnant with a little deer.

Song Jinning pursed her lips and chuckles. After laughing, he asked Gu Yu to help her walk back.

When she sat down in the room, she realized that her legs had weakened.

Taking the tea cup handed over by Bai Lu and sipping two sips of tea, Song Jinning glanced at Li Xiyan, who was still leaning on the railing and looking down, and quietly told Gu Yu: “You go find out who the princess is looking at.”

Looking at his attire just now, and his posture in commanding other people beside him, he was an officer of the Soldier Mars.

Song Jinning knew that Bing Ma Si belonged to the Ministry of War. If this person is really good, he might be able to enter the Ministry of War.

Gu Yu replied and turned away lightly.

When he returned to Weiyang Palace in the evening, Gu Yu came forward, removing all the beaded hairpins from Song Jinning’s head while reporting the news he had inquired about at that time.

“The man’s name is Li Jian’an, the third son of Dongping Hou’s family. I heard that since he was a child, he likes to dance knives and shoot guns. He wanted to enlist in the army to gain military merit, but Mrs. Dongping Hou couldn’t bear it. He relied on himself. The individual’s ability has entered the Bing Ma Si, and now he has achieved the position of deputy commander.”

Gu Yu naturally knew that Song Jinning asked her to investigate Li Jian’an’s real purpose, so after simply reporting Li Jian’an’s family background, he began to report other things.

“Although the third son of Li dances knives and guns, he is also good at poetry, writing and writing. He is also very vulgar, and he is very humble and polite in dealing with others. I just gave a weak crown last month, and I heard that he is already at home. Started to find his wife.”

In other words, this Li Jian’an is still single?

Although Song Jinning didn’t know much about Dongpinghou’s mansion, he also knew that Dongpinghou himself had no real power in his hands.

This is because the dynasty has experienced three emperors since the founding of the country. Although Haiyan and Heqing are not mentioned, it can also be said that the whole world has risen to peace except for the occasional riots on the border.

It is very difficult to earn a title in ordinary times. Most of the people with titles nowadays were earned by their ancestors when the country was founded.

The so-called gentleman’s zeal has declined for three generations and zeal for the fifth generation. How many of them are still as prominent as they were at the beginning?

Moreover, once the world is settled, the kings do not want these founding fathers to hold too much real power in their hands. Because that would threaten oneself.

So either it is just to find an excuse to give it directly, or it is to slowly take back the real power.

The ancestors who broke out from all kinds of hardships and obstacles, the plight of the dead mountain and blood, were clearly arranged by the superiors, not to mention that they were all born in the Qiluo bush, and they did not know what the hardship was. Offspring. You can only guard the ancestral properties and titles handed down from your ancestors, collect rent, earn some salaries, and live your life in peace.

But this Li Jian’an is not bad. He did not lie down on his ancestor’s merits like the princes of other families, and were willing to fight on his own.

Song Jinning wondered, otherwise a few days later, pick a suitable time to talk to the Queen Mother about this matter?

Although this Dongping Marquis may have no real power, the Empress Dowager Song originally had only Li Xiyan a daughter. She only hoped that she would be healthy and happy to spend her life happily. She never thought of asking her to be a dancer.

Naturally, she never thought of asking her husband-in-law and her in-laws to play the role.

Because the Queen Mother Song knew very well that power is the most dangerous thing in the world, not to mention royal people.

As long as Li Xiyan, her future husband-in-law, and her husband’s family are responsible for their duties, as the only imperial sister of Li Chengxuan, they will naturally enjoy endless glory and wealth. But once her husband-in-law or her in-laws are dishonest and want to interfere with the imperial power, which emperor can tolerate?

At that time, for the sake of brothers and sisters, Li Chengxuan would spare Li Xiyan’s life, but she would never forgive her husband-in-law and her in-laws.

Even if it is her child, he may not be willing to forgive.

Li Xiyan is also a crystal glass-hearted person. If that time is really reached, he can’t wash his face with tears all day, and end up depressed for a lifetime?

The Empress Dowager Song is a person who has been in the power field. She knows the stakes more than anyone else, so she may not be willing to marry her only daughter to a power official’s house.

Otherwise, I would not wait until now that Li Xiyan’s marriage has not been finalized.

And most importantly, according to today’s situation, is Li Xiyan obviously interested in this Li Jianan?

It is better to marry someone you like than to marry someone you don’t like, so can you find a suitable time to mention this Li Jian’an to Queen Song?

While thinking about this, Song Jinning took off the layers of clothes she was wearing, and changed into a dress that she usually wears.

In an instant, I felt that the whole person was lighter by four or five kilograms, and even when I walked, I felt that my footsteps were lighter.

After washing off the makeup on her face, and then simply applying some pearl cream, Song Jinning sat down on the wooden couch by the window and began to eat the Guiling Ointment that Bailu had just brought.

After taking a couple of bites, I heard the waiter outside announce in a loud voice: “Your Majesty is here.”

Song Jinning thought of the sentence Li Chengxuan said when she was about to leave in the morning, when you come back from the garden today, I still have a good thing for you, and her hand shook involuntarily.

The Guiling paste in the spoon also fell into the bowl of blue and white lotus pattern.
