"The battle of Hanshan Pass has been over for many years. After the war, Fang Shaoxing continued to guard Hanshan Pass. He was a general of Hanshan Pass."
"Last year, the courtiers thought that when he was guarding, there was a lot of trouble on the border, which made all the Central Plains and Western Regions uneasy, so they wrote a letter together to ask him to return to the capital, and he enjoyed the good fortune at a young age. , as the envoy of Yun Hui."
"This is the guard by the emperor's side. Once he has the emperor's blue eyes, what high-ranking officials are not rich in?"
"He's good. He is often seen flirting with the maids and officials around the emperor, and he has never been formal. The emperor knows that he is young and bloody, and also heard that when he was at the border, he was a romantic person in his bones, so he didn't mind. , I think he is a talent, and he will be able to restrain him soon."
Having said that, Princess Yongning glanced at Lu Jinxi and laughed.
Angry.
Lu Jinxi was already a little curious, and was slightly surprised: "As you say, the emperor loves talent and can't bear to blame him, isn't it good? How can the ministers refer to him?"
"Who told him to do something wrong?" Princess Yongning shook her head and sneered, "A few days ago, I heard that he really restrained himself. Unexpectedly, he was caught that night and made him frivolous. The maid next to the concubine, the girl is in her twenties, and she is about to be released from the palace when she is old. When this happened, she was unbearably humiliated and died in a well."
Lu Jinxi was surprised.
"You also know Wei Yi, and you know it's a temper that can't be humiliated. She is so favored in the palace that even the queen is a little arrogant to her. How can you take a breath when this happens? Go look for it now. The emperor wants an explanation."
Princess Yongning's eyes flashed with a little sigh.
"I can't cover up such scandals. Within two days, everyone in the court and the public knew about it. Even if Fang Shaoxing is young and promising, he can't stand this life lawsuit, so the emperor has no choice but to remove him now. I haven't figured out a way to deal with it yet."
this……
Is there a reason for such twists and turns?
But Lu Jinxi thought about it and felt that it was not quite right.
Liu Jin, the Admiral of the Nine Sects, she has not had much contact with.
Only because the other party had given her a centennial ginseng when she was seriously ill, which was particularly prominent on the gift list, that she remembered the name and deduced that the other party attached great importance to the General's Mansion.
That's why she only mentioned this when she told Pan Quan'er to invite Guishou Zhang.
I just communicated with this person. Although there are not many words, can know that this person has a clear mind and is not as rude as he seems.
And how can someone who has reached this position not even have the ability to distinguish right from wrong?
But he happened to come out to toss like this, and he had to give Fang Shaoxing a head start...
It shouldn't.
Lu Jinxi looked at Eldest Princess Yongning, and had doubts in her heart, but did not ask.
Princess Yongning could see that she didn't ask, but she admired her smartness in the bottom of her heart, so she couldn't help but squinted and laughed, put her forehead lazily, and squinted at her porcelain white face.
"On the other hand, it looks like this. There is no secret in it, but there is no evidence of death."
"Fang Shaoxing is too young, and the edges and corners are too heavy. Although it is not as arrogant as Gu Juefei's back then, it is not far away."
After Lu Jinxi heard it, he hesitated: "But if they are making trouble like this, won't something happen?"
And kneeling to one of her "Mrs. Generals" in the street, would it be too much?
Princess Yongning was not worried at all.
Thinking of the changes in this group of people in the past six years, her eyes dimmed, and she only said: "They are smarter than you think. When Xue Kuang was still there, he was careful everywhere, for fear that Xue Kuang would be branded as the master of power. Head. Now that Xue Kuang is gone, I don’t have this worry, so I respect you a little more. You don’t have to be afraid, the emperor knows it all, and you know that these rude people are not happy.”
"Not happy?"
Lu Jinxi remembered the sentence that Princess Yongning had just mentioned when she said Fang Shaoxing, "The courtiers thought that when he was guarding, there was a lot of trouble on the border, which caused all the troubles in the Central Plains and Western Regions", and there was speculation for a while.
The answer of Princess Yongning also confirmed her guess, she only gave three words: "Negotiated."
Negotiated...
Daxia and the Western Regions, after fighting for so many years, actually negotiated peace?
Lu Jinxi felt a little dazed, and said, "The soldiers in the infantry barracks that were all over the street just now, my niece looks dignified and tidy, and it's not as loose as other capital garrison..."
"They're all from the battle of Hanshan Pass."
Princess Yongning let out a long sigh, but she didn't want to say any more, she just said, "These are all matters of the imperial court, and it has nothing to do with you. I tell you, just to make you feel more in your heart, lest he When we meet each day, we are blinded by both eyes."
"My niece can save it."
Lu Jinxi nodded, thoughtfully and respectfully thanked him.
At this time, the car had already entered Changshun Street, and it took about a minute or so.
After the incident just now, everyone knew that this car belonged to Princess Yongning, and that the general's wife, Lu Jinxi, was sitting in it, so everyone fled.
The eldest princess' car drove unimpeded and ran all the way.
After a short while, they had come to the end of the long street on the side of Tiehuangcheng. From a distance, they could see that the carriages and horses in front had stopped, and the officials in fancy clothes came down and greeted each other.
The two large stone lions on the north side of the street were squatting, and the three front doors were all opened.
Many servants were waiting outside, watching the invitations, receiving the stream of guests, and another person recording the gift list at the door.
"Princess, here we are."
The driver in black threw his whip and got out of the car, and waited beside the car.
Lu Jinxi had been sitting outside, but at this moment, she took the hand handed over by the maid next to her, came out, and stood aside for a while.
At this moment, the surroundings were quiet for a while.
One is because of the car driving, and the other is because of this master who got out from here—
Many people didn't witness what happened on Changshun Street just now, and the people who have been stuck here all wiped their eyes with fright: the facial features are so delicate, they seem to be gifted by God, and there are not many people in the capital. !
It's still in the car of the eldest princess...
The identity of the person in front of him is self-evident!
It was the widow wife of General Xue Kuang!
Isn't she not going out?
Many people were surprised and couldn't help looking at each other.
Of course, Lu Jinxi also felt those gazes, and felt amused in his heart, but he felt as if he had come out of a zoo.
In the car, Princess Yongning had already leaned out.
The low stool had already been set up beside the car, but it was not any of the palace maids who just handed over to help her, but a cold-faced man standing beside him with his hands down.
Lu Jinxi was startled for a moment, her eyelids twitched.
However, Princess Yongning put her hand in his very naturally, and he helped him down steadily, and her feet fell to the ground.
He just said to him: "Lao, you are the driver for me. Can you also go to the birthday banquet in the Grand Master's Mansion?"
"I still have to go back to the palace. It is not convenient to show up at the birthday banquet of the Grand Master's Mansion." The man's face did not change in the slightest, but he was still cold, and his voice was even more solemn, "I'm afraid I can't go."
"Alright."
Princess Yongning didn't mind, but when she looked up and saw Lu Jinxi's gaze, she laughed for a while.He just waved his hand at will and let the man in black go, while he walked to Lu Jinxi's side, a little two steps ahead.
"He is the first-class bodyguard by the emperor's side. Ben Gong finds him pleasing to the eye, so he called him to be a coachman once, but he can't be considered wronged."
