"Mr. Chai, in order to prevent leaks in the future, we need more secret contact information." Xiang Nan added, "Let's do this, let's set up two signal stations and a secret contact point.
I pass by Zhuque Street every day. You rent a house along the street and put a pot of paper flowers on the windowsill. If you have a message for me, place a pot of white flowers. If you open another wine shop, if I come to you for anything, I will order someone to buy Wuliangye.
The secret contact point is set up in the hole in the big willow tree at the back door of the palace. If you and I have anything to do, we will contact each other through the tree hole and try not to meet each other.
After all, the capital is no better than Xizhou, and too many people are staring at me now. If we don't take precautions, you will be exposed easily. "
In the play, Chai Mu and Li Chengyin were quickly exposed because of their close contact, which aroused the suspicion of the emperor and Gao Ming, and also made Li Chengyin very passive for a time.
As the saying goes, if the king is not secretive, his ministers will lose; if the ministers are not secretive, they will lose their virginity; if matters are not secretive, there will be harm. Chai Mu and Li Chengyin wanted to dominate the world, but they acted so carelessly, which is really not the right thing to do.
Besides, Xiang Nan doesn't really need Chai Mu's help.
On the one hand, he has the cheating device of advance knowledge, and he can figure out many things by himself; on the other hand, although Chai Mu is known as a military advisor, he is often not very clever when giving Li Chengyin ideas.
For example, he asked Li Chengyin to investigate the copper coins by himself. Not only did he fail to bring down the prince Li Chengye, but Li Chengyin was framed by Li Chengye and imprisoned. If Gu Jian hadn't risked his life to save Qu Xiaofeng, Li Chengyin would have definitely been doomed.
For example, he and Li Chengyin deliberately leaked information to Rong Shuang to test the queen Zhang Meiniang, and then asked Li Chengyin to act as bait to lure the queen into taking action. As a result, Li Chengyin almost died...
Xiang Nan felt that he was like Wu Yong, the wise man in "Water Margin", who came up with some bad ideas that were not very bright.
The reason for this is because, like Li Chengyin, he never saw clearly that Emperor Li Hao was the biggest BOSS.
Even if they expose the crimes of Li Chengye, Zhang Meiniang, and Gao Ming to the world, as long as Li Zuo doesn't nod, they will still be able to run around.
On the contrary, if Li Zuo nodded, even if they were innocent, they would be executed by the whole family, and no one would be spared.
Chai Mu was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
…
Two days later, the emperor officially went hunting in the Forbidden Garden.
Xiang Nan arrived at Forbidden Garden early in the morning and immediately greeted Li Chengye, Li Chengyuan, and Li Chengwen, "Second brother, third brother, fourth brother~"
After a while, all the princes and ministers arrived with their children.
This winter hunting was nominally a hunt, but in fact it was a social party for the high-ranking officials of the Toyo Dynasty.
All the princes, grandsons and ladies will come here. At that time, when we look at each other, we can discuss the next step.
Of course, for ladies, it is best if they can be favored by a prince, then they may become a queen or a concubine, and one person can achieve enlightenment and ascend to heaven, bringing unlimited glory to themselves and their family.
Therefore, today all the ladies are dressed up to attend, and all of them are beautifully dressed.
Fortunately, Xiang Nan has seen the world, so he was not dazzled by these warblers for a while.
On the other hand, although Prince Rong and Prince Yun pretended not to look sideways, their eyes were actually looking at the ladies from time to time, and they seemed to be looking for their princesses.
It can also be seen from this point that the drama "East Palace" is actually quite ridiculous.
In ancient times, people's lifespan was not long, with the average lifespan being only more than thirty years. Therefore, men and women generally got married very early. The law of the Tang Dynasty stipulated that "a man who is fifteen years old and a woman who is thirteen years old or above must marry."
If Li Chengyin were according to his age in the play, he would already be twenty years old. Li Chengye, Li Chengyuan, and Li Chengwen are naturally older and have already married and had children. It is impossible for them to wait until now to marry the princess.
Therefore, this drama is an imaginary drama, which is very different from real history.
…
At this moment, General Zhao Jingyu of the auxiliary country arrived with his son Zhao Shixuan and daughter Zhao Sesu.
"Your Majesty, Zhao Jingyu, pays homage to King Xuande, King Rong, King Yun, and King Yi!" Zhao Jingyu stepped forward to salute, and Zhao Sese followed suit.
Although in the play
, Li Chengyin flirted with and exploited Zhao Sese in every possible way. One is to win over the Zhao family, and the other is to help Qu Xiaofeng attract hatred.
But Xiang Nan didn't do that.
First of all, he didn't bother to win over the Zhao family through marriage. Because Zhao Jingyu followed the trend and was only interested in profit. As long as there is profit, he will take the initiative to come to your door. If there is no profit, even if you come to him to ask for help, he will kick you out. Therefore, if you want to use him, just give him enough benefits, and don't risk yourself.
Secondly, Zhao Sese himself is a bit sinister, and he has tried to harm others several times. Such behavior is not what he likes.
Therefore, it has been almost two months since he returned from the western border, and Xiang Nan has not even looked for Zhao Sese. She just asked her personal attendant Shi En to give Zhao Sese a white bear fur and a pair of ruby earrings as a return gift for the sachet she had given her earlier.
It was the middle of winter and the weather was cold. Zhao Sese was wearing the white bear fur that Xiang Nan had given her, and the ruby earrings on her ears made her even more delicate and beautiful.
"Thank you, His Highness King Yi, for sending Sese the furs and earrings." Zhao Sese said to Xiang Nan with a smile.
"Miss Zhao, you don't have to be polite. Swords are sold to martyrs, and pink powder is given to beauties." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "This fur and these earrings are really a gift to the right person. Only a beauty like Miss Zhao can match them." "
Hearing what Xiang Nan said, Zhao Sese was happy and a little regretful.
She was really flattered by Xiang Nan's praise for her. But the title "Miss Zhao" still seems a bit unfamiliar.
…
At this time, three more people came in a carriage.
As soon as the carriage stopped, a wisp of red clouds poured out from the carriage, immediately attracting the attention of everyone present.
I saw it was a woman in a red riding suit, heroic and gorgeous. Although there were many women present, they were all covered by her at once.
It was from Xizhou that the ninth princess came - Qu Xiaofeng.
The two people who got out of the car behind her were Yongning and Luo Xi.
"Xiaofeng, wait for us." Yongning said with a smile, and then brought Qu Xiaofeng to Xiang Nan and others, "Second brother, third brother, fourth brother, let me introduce to you. This is the ninth princess of Xizhou— —Qu Xiaofeng."
"Xiao Feng, these are my second brother, King Xuande, my third brother, King Rong, and my fourth brother, King Yun. My fifth brother, King Yi, needs no introduction. You must know me." Yongning smiled again.
The two parties met immediately.
"Li Chengyin, thank you for helping me prepare the riding clothes." Qu Xiaofeng smiled.
"You're welcome. Xiaofeng, you look really good in this red riding suit." Xiang Nan nodded and smiled.
"Yeah, how do you know I like red?" Qu Xiaofeng nodded.
As soon as this red riding costume arrived, she couldn't put it down. From the style to the color, it really suits her.
"Is your name "Xiao Feng"? Maple leaves are red. Xiang Nan smiled and said, "Besides, I was in Xizhou and I saw you wearing red clothes several times, so I think you must like this color."
"That's it." Qu Xiaofeng smiled and nodded.
