"You actually know the name of Brother Xun Wang!" Li Hong's expression did not change. It turned out that Concubine Xiao Shu had a son and two daughters. Perhaps because they were sons, after Concubine Xiao Shu was killed, Li Lian was not punished, but the king The title was demoted from King Xu of the big country to King Xun of the small country, and he was appointed as the governor of Shenzhou from afar.
In ancient times, it was very impolite for a man's peers to call him by his first name. Usually, he would call him by his first name, but not many people knew his name. This situation was called using his first name, such as Gao Aocao and Qu Yuan. , Xiang Yu, Wu Zixu, Chiang Kai-shek and other historical figures are like this.
Only those who are close to him know his name. Li Xiayu could tell his brother's name, and Li Hong already believed it.
"Forget it, you two will go back to the palace with me to freshen up and have a rest for the night. We will confirm it tomorrow when the king goes to meet with the Holy Emperor!"
"Thank you, His Majesty Donggong!"
"Your Highness!" Wang Wenzuo stepped forward and whispered: "Can you let these two people stay here for one more night? Tomorrow you will tell the Holy Spirit that the truth will be revealed before it is too late. At most, I will send you some bedding and utensils later. Just come over here!”
"I can already confirm the identity of these two people, how can I still let them live in a place like this?" A trace of anger appeared on Prince Li Hong's face.
"Your Highness!" Jin Ren asked: "If these two people are really Princess Gao'an and Princess Yiyang, then they are now in Yeting Palace on behalf of their two majesties. Although you are His Highness the Crown Prince, you have not agreed with the two majesties. It is against the law to bring these two people to the East Palace. It will be safer to follow Wang Shenjun's approach!"
"Aye's mother locked the two sisters here?" Li Hong looked around. An overturned bed was the only furniture in the room. The straw scattered on the floor gave off a musty smell, and the damaged ones The wooden windows couldn't be blocked at all, and the cold wind was pouring in through the gaps. The brazier in the corner had no warmth at all. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he couldn't believe that there was such a dilapidated residence so close to the East Palace. Or her half-sister.
"This is the only possibility!" Jin Ren asked in a lower voice. If Wang Wenzuo hadn't been right next to him, he wouldn't have been able to hear what was said.
"I understand!" Li Hong nodded and glanced at Wang Wenzuo: "Wang Canjun, I will do as you say. Later you will send two beddings, as well as an incense burner, a wooden barrel and other things to me. Two sisters!”
"Here!" Wang Wenzuo responded. He noticed that Li Hong's childish face showed the kind of sadness that only adults can have, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "It's really strange that the couple of Wu family and Li Zhi could give birth to such a kind-hearted child. It's a pity that in In this imperial family, good intentions can sometimes harm oneself!" The prince left, and only Wang Wenzuo, Li Xiayu, and Li Suwen were left in the house.
The sudden silence made Wang Wenzuo suddenly panic. He had not felt this way for a long time. The three years in Baekje had eliminated every bit of weakness and fear from him. He thought he would never have this kind of feeling again. It feels like it's wrong.
"Thank you, Mr. Lang, for saving my sister!" Li Suwen's voice broke the silence in the room, and Wang Wenzuo hurriedly returned the favor: "Your Highness, you don't have to do this. This is the responsibility of a humble minister!"
"Nonsense!" Li Suwen's voice was clear and urgent, like a firing machine gun: "Aye's ministers are all in this palace, but my sister and I have been imprisoned in Yeting Palace and endured cold and hardship for so many years. I don’t see anyone doing their part, but there are many who bully us sisters. My sister is right, we sisters have long been no longer your royal highness, so don’t call us your highness, call me Suwen, call me your sister. It’s Jade!”
"Shut up!" The more Li Xiayu listened, the more he felt it was outrageous. He even told Wang Wenzuo the names of his sisters. He quickly stopped his sister and bowed to Wang Wenzuo: "My little sister is speechless. Please don't stop me." Take it to heart.”
"Your Highness is innocent and childish, and I understand!" Wang Wenzuo returned the courtesy and said, "You two have heard the instructions given by the East Palace just now. I don't know what you want. Please tell me so that I can deliver it!"
"Please give me two beds of blankets and some charcoal!" Li Xiayu said.
"Just these? Don't you want anything else?" Wang Wenzuo was a little surprised by Li Xiayu's answer. The furnishings in this room were extremely simple. Not to mention the two princesses with golden branches and jade leaves, they were not as good as an ordinary farmer outside Chang'an City. It was really I don’t know how these two noble people who were born with fine clothes and fine food survived.
It is indeed strange that some people have promised to send various utensils, but then refused.
"It's enough to have sheep felt for covering and charcoal for heating!" Li Xiayu said: "If you ask for too much, it's too good, and you might get into trouble. It's better to ask for less, but you can still get more. Enjoy it for a few days!" Wang Wenzuo glanced at Li Xiayu in surprise. Suffering can indeed make people grow. Compared with her younger sister, this elder sister understands much better. She also knows that her two sisters have suffered in the Yeting Palace over the years. All the pain he suffered was due to that woman. As for his biological father, even if he did not directly cause harm, he at least ignored it or even acquiesced.
Therefore, even if Prince Li Hongnian intercedes for his sisters in front of their father because of their brother-sister relationship, the result will not be optimistic. Most of his sisters will still stay in Yeting Palace. If they want too many good things now and annoy the woman, they will He devised strategies to take revenge, even harming his own sisters.
It's better to just have two blankets and a little charcoal, maybe it can cause a little pity and save the lives of the two sisters.
"Then bring two beds of rough felt. What do you think, Your Highness?" Li Xiayu was stunned when he heard the words, and glanced at the man in front of him in surprise. He saw that he was tall, with high cheekbones and a thick beard connected to his temples. , a pair of bright black eyes, shining with gentleness, and her cheeks could not help but blush. She has been imprisoned in the Yeting Palace since she was a child. The only men she can see are feminine and cruel eunuchs. Where could I see such a heroic and understanding man? For a moment, I couldn't help but feel something I had never felt before.
"If His Highness doesn't say anything, then I'll take it as a yes!" Wang Wenzuo smiled, turned around and went out.
Li Suwen on the side became anxious when she saw this. She was about to shout but was stopped by Li Xiayu: "Sister, don't shout, this Wang Canjun is a kind-hearted person!"
"Sister, are you dizzy!" Li Suwen became anxious upon hearing this: "Brother Prince asked him to bring many things, but he said he would only bring two pairs of rough felts. How can he be a kind-hearted person!"
