Happy Little Scholar

Li Yi handed the letter to Liu Yishou and said, "You should gain something if you keep an eye on Qin Yu."

Liu Yi took the letter, read it, nodded and said, "I understand."

Li Mingzhu seemed to understand what he wanted to do. When she walked into the yard, she turned around and asked, "Are you planning to use the same method you used to deal with the Chu family to deal with the Cui family?"

"The Cui family has many members, and they will not do many things personally. As long as the affairs of the King of Shu are not exposed, and unless the Cui family rebels, it will not have any big impact on the general situation." Li Yi shook his head and said: "Take a step forward Just look at one step, a thousand-mile dike breaks in an ant nest, and if things add up one by one, it may not be the straw that breaks the camel’s back.”

Li Mingzhu said firmly: "That matter must not be known to my father under any circumstances."

"Of course I know this, otherwise, this one crime would be enough to kill the Cui family countless times." Li Yi has thought about this contradictory issue many times. It is obvious that through that incident, it will be very difficult to bring down the Cui family. It's easy, but it's even easier to bring down the old emperor. They can't take this risk.

The two reached a tacit understanding on this matter, and there was nothing to discuss. Li Yi saw Miss Liu Er on the other side of the yard, who seemed to have just finished practicing. He thought about it and waved: "Ruyi, come here. one time."

Miss Liu Er put down her autumn water, walked over from there, and cast an inquiring look.

Li Yi looked at the two people standing together. After a while, he looked at Miss Liu Er and said in surprise: "I found that you are really growing recently. I remember that at the beginning, you were shorter than the princess. Now you have grown." Same height..."

Miss Liu Er looked at him, "When have I ever been shorter than her?"

"Ah, no?" Li Yi shook his head and said, "I must have remembered it wrong again. I don't know what's wrong with my memory recently..."

As he sent Her Royal Highness out, he saw the Fang family's sister-in-law coming from a distance. When he saw the person next to her, Li Yi was stunned for an instant. He closed his eyes in disbelief. When he opened them again, the Fang family's sister-in-law He was already smiling and talking to the woman next to him.

Li Yi looked back at Miss Liu Er and asked, "Who is that girl next to the Fang family's sister-in-law? I haven't seen her before?"

Miss Liu Er glanced over there and said: "Yesterday, when Aunt Fang's family went to the temple to offer incense, she met Miss Xiao on the road. She came to Kyoto to seek refuge with relatives. She didn't find anyone, and was robbed and paid for. , Aunt Fang felt sorry for her, so she took her home temporarily. "

"Miss Xiao..." Li Yi nodded and sighed: "Sister-in-law from the Fang family is really kind-hearted."

"Sister-in-law Fang actually treats people very well, and uncle Fang is also nice, but he seems a bit fierce on weekdays..."

Li Yi nodded, "Speaking of which, you are quite similar in this regard, but you can't hold a broom with your hands, which is much better than her..."

Miss Liu Er's temper has really gotten better recently, and Li Yi can't help but feel that her youth is gone forever. She can even cook a bowl of noodles that tastes pretty good by herself. The unruly, willful and unreasonable Miss Liu Er, who had enjoyed a little bit of human fireworks, seemed to be gone forever.

Of course, it was Lao Fang who made him feel the most that time can change a person.

Li Yi didn't think he had the ability to just quietly send the Fang family's sister-in-law's biggest class enemy to her side, and make the two of them live happily together like sisters. There was harmony inside and outside the family.

"Some things always have to be faced. I don't have the skills of my uncle, so of course I have to find another way." When Lao Fang said this, his face was filled with sacred light. This was indeed a big event for him. , being able to allow Fang's sister-in-law and Xiaohong to get along with each other like real sisters, this was something that was simply a fantasy, unbelievable, and something that I couldn't even think about before.

In comparison, his own affairs were more difficult to deal with. Although Zui Mo's tone had relaxed somewhat these days, he still wasn't completely mentally prepared.

This is just drunken ink... Comrades still need to work hard, the road is long and the revolution has not yet been successful.

In the old house of the Zeng family, Zui Mo made tea for them. When they walked back to the room, Zeng Shichun said, "After this incident, the Cui family probably doesn't trust me much anymore."

This was not beyond Li Yi's expectation. The case was very involved and focused the attention of the entire Kyoto. It would undoubtedly be hellishly difficult to pluck him out. A single mistake would arouse public opinion.

When the Cui family knew that they could not save the Chu family, they actually used the power of the court to keep him as the capital order, but they encountered great obstacles and had no choice but to stop.

In this way, the subsequent reversal of public opinion seemed extremely suspicious, and with that girl's protection, if the Cui family had not been suspicious, they would have been eaten up in Kyoto long ago, and not even the dregs would be left.

"Although the King of Shu is still in Shuzhou, if His Majesty does not appoint a crown prince, he will still be the most promising." Zeng Shichun looked at him and said slowly: "Once something happens to His Majesty and the King of Shu succeeds to the throne, it will almost There is no doubt about it. Until now, are you still unwilling to tell me which side you are on? "

"Although the Cui family probably won't attack you yet, you still have to be careful." Li Yi didn't answer, just warned him, turned around and went inside.

Zeng Shichun had a thoughtful look on his face. After a moment, he dipped his finger in tea and wrote two words on the table.

Quickly, he crossed out the words "Prince of Jin" on the stone table. With His Majesty still having adult princes, the possibility of a child succeeding to the throne is too small. For the sake of the overall situation, His Majesty will not make such a choice. Li Yi is definitely more clear about this than him.

The other princes are far inferior in status and talent. More importantly, those princes are far away in their fiefdoms, and Li Yi has no contact with them.

Except for the Prince of Jin, there is no prince who has both a noble status and a close relationship with him.

On the contrary, several princesses have a close relationship with him. She offended the King of Shu for Princess Yongning, which led to the Cui family seeing him as a thorn in their eyes. Princess Shouning was also very close to him and there was no barrier between them...

As for the eldest princess, it goes without saying that they were close friends when they were in Qing'an Prefecture. In the past few years in Kyoto, the eldest princess established a women's college and a women's federation, and was deeply loved by Kyoto women. She founded a college and won the hearts of scholars all over the world. Since she took over the government, the civil and military officials in the court would praise the eldest princess when they mentioned her. There were countless officials in the court who were loyal to her as if they were loyal to His Majesty. Who would dare to treat her as a woman again?

Not to mention that Chu Daru's actions this time backfired and he lost the hearts of the people. Her Royal Highness reformed the law, and the people also applauded..., behind all these things, there was actually his shadow.

It's strange, I don't know what he was thinking, not supporting a prince, but doing all these things for the princess, what was he thinking...

Zeng Shichun put down the teacup he picked up, his expression frozen.
