Will succeed

Chapter 73

Li Jue smiled wryly. It is not known whether it is a blessing or a curse to have such a living treasure in the Prince's Mansion...

After waiting for a while, what was waiting was not a delicious meal, but Guo Guo's anxious face.Guozi hurried in from the outside, gasping for breath.

"His... Your Highness, there are people in the palace."

"who?"

Seeing Li Jue's calm face, Guo Zi also calmed down miraculously: "It's Eunuch Sheng who is beside the emperor. He said that he heard that your highness woke up, and then the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming again. Taking this opportunity, at the Mid-Autumn Festival feast for your highness You choose the right concubine!"

Li Jue frowned when he heard this. Although Pei Yuru was abolished, at this time, the Concubine Zhengzheng probably hurt the heart of Zhongyi Hou.

The emperor is trying to drive a wedge between him and Marquis Zhongyi!After thinking about it for a while, he visited Hou Zhongyi and settled the matter satisfactorily.

It seems that the emperor is very dissatisfied with his disappearance this time!

While Li Jue was thinking, Guo Zi was already sweating profusely: "Your Highness? Your Highness!"

Hearing the shout, Li Jue came back to his senses, concealed the embarrassment in his heart, and said solemnly: "What's your name? I was thinking about something very important just now, and I can't interrupt it!"

If he doesn't want to do the pure fruit, Li Jue will do whatever he wants.He scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Yes... I'm sorry, it's because the fruit is not good, so I disturbed Your Highness."

Li Jue coughed, and suddenly felt that it was not good for him to be such a fool, so he went out without saying anything.When he reached the door, Li Jue looked at Guo Zi who was still standing still, and pretended to be dissatisfied: "Why don't you leave, do you want me to help you?"

Hearing this, Guozi suddenly looked at Li Jue, with a mournful smiling face, everyone wanted to laugh: "Guozi is wrong, Your Highness, don't be angry."

However, Li Jue didn't speak, just turned and left.Guozi was so frightened that she trotted after Li Jue, apologizing and saying good things all the way.

The fruit of not daring to look at Li Jue's face, how could he know that when he hurriedly explained, there was a comfortable smile on the corner of Li Jue's mouth?

When they arrived at the reception room, Duke Sheng stood in the center, and did not look down on Li Jue because the emperor expressed his dissatisfaction with Li Jue in the court hall.

His eyes were full of respect, the same as usual.Come to think of it, this was the reason why he was able to stay with the emperor for so long. A person who could ponder people's hearts and have a good eyelid would naturally live for a long time.

Seeing Li Jue's arrival, Eunuch Sheng hurriedly saluted, and performed his role as a slave very well in every move: "I have seen Your Highness, I wonder if His Highness is in better health?"

He didn't immediately explain the purpose of coming, but asked about Li Jue's body, no matter who it was, he would feel good about it.This Eunuch Sheng is not easy after all.

Going to the chair and sitting down, Li Jue's pale lips highlighted his current state.In order to make the emperor think that his situation is more serious, and to make those people in the dark take it lightly, Li Jue coughed a few times on purpose, in an extremely weak voice: "Ahem, Eunuch Sheng is being polite, get up."

Seeing that Eunuch Sheng got up as he said, Li Jue covered the corners of his mouth with his hands, and tried to hold back his cough: "Eunuch Lao Sheng is concerned. Your Highness is fine. I don't know why Eunuch Sheng is here?"

A gleam flashed in Eunuch Sheng's eyes, and he said: "If you go back to Your Highness, the Mid-Autumn Festival will be in four days. The Emperor specially asked the servants to inform His Highness that there will be many ladies from aristocratic families during the Mid-Autumn Festival feast. At that time, I would like to ask His Highness to choose the one you like." , the Emperor will marry His Highness."

Hearing this, Li Jue showed a surprised look on his face: "Marriage?" Immediately, as if thinking of something, Li Jue suddenly became depressed again: "Hehe, the father really has a heart. But the crown prince has not passed away. , how can His Highness abandon her?"

"This..." Eunuch Sheng showed hesitation, he was very smart, he knew that Li Jue's words were just a formality, but he still tried his best to cooperate.

It can be said that if Li Jue ascends the throne in the future, he will either completely subdue Eunuch Sheng, or completely get rid of him!

Li Jue sighed deeply, and the sadness in his eyes could not be concealed: "Eunuch Sheng, at the beginning, His Royal Highness and the Crown Princess were in love with each other, that's why I married her. She has become like this now. Your highness can't bear it. Father-in-law, you are a popular person beside the father, why don't you tell the father for me, let him take back his life!"

From Li Jue's self-proclaimed change from "My Highness" to "I", it can be seen how "sincere" his attitude is. However, Eunuch Sheng pretended he hadn't seen or heard anything, and evaded: " Your Highness, this matter is the emperor's decision, the slave is just a servant, how can he have the right to say such things?"

Li Jue lowered his head so that no one could see his expression, and he said after a while, "Forget it, this is a matter of my power, so don't worry about it, Duke Sheng."

Eunuch Sheng was shocked, and hurriedly bowed and said: "How can you be a slave, let Your Highness say such insulting words to this slave? Since His Highness is so considerate of this slave, even though this slave can't say anything, this slave will definitely tell His Highness what you want. The emperor knows."

What they were waiting for was this sentence. Li Jue had done so many dramas before, but it was just to let the emperor know his thoughts.But he couldn't talk about it himself. According to the emperor's temperament, if he said it in person, not only would it not succeed, but it would also be counterproductive.

Therefore, the best person to do this is Eunuch Sheng.Although I don't know the truth of Sheng Gonggong's words, but since he said so, his meaning will eventually reach the emperor's ears.

Eunuch Sheng is an old man by the emperor's side. Like Mu Xi, Eunuch Sheng was already serving the emperor when the emperor was not yet the emperor.

The emperor believed in him, and the emperor also talked to him about many things, including his views on himself and other princes, and Eunuch Sheng knew it very well.

No matter what it was, even if the emperor disagreed with Eunuch Sheng's words in the end, he would listen to them.

And if he wanted to ascend to the throne of God with less obstacles, Eunuch Sheng was the one who had to be wooed.However, Eunuch Sheng never asked about these matters, and treated every prince, even Li Jue as the prince, equally.

However, Eunuch Sheng has Zhang Liang's plan, and Li Jue has the wall ladder.No one can always stand in a neutral position. Li Jue is confident that one day, Duke Sheng will be used by him.

And that day is not far away.

Li Jue raised his head, gave a thankful glance at Duke Sheng's referendum, and coughed a few times "couldn't help it", only asking Guozi to help him down to rest: "I'm really sorry to bother Mr. Sheng so much."

Hearing this, Eunuch Sheng looked terrified: "Your Highness is serious, it is a slave's blessing to be able to do things for His Highness."

Li Jue got up and walked slowly towards Eunuch Sheng, fully showing the appearance of a patient who has not recovered from poisoning.Lifting Eunuch Sheng up, Li Jue smiled and said, "Then I will trouble Eunuch Sheng."

"Don't dare."

After the matter was finished, Eunuch Sheng didn't stay any longer, he accused Li Jue of a crime, and left to return to the palace.

As soon as Eunuch Sheng walked away, Guo Zi couldn't bear it anymore.He quickly ran to Li Jue's side, put his hand on Li Jue's arm, and said anxiously: "Your Highness, what's the matter with you? I didn't have anything to do in the room just now, why did I cough when I came out? It seems that the medicine is not very good. Well, Guozi, how about asking Mr. Fang to take a look?"

A series of questions made Li Jue dizzy.

He glanced at the fruit in a funny way, and Li Jue's words were full of jokes: "Oh, it's because you were too slow just now, which caused me to walk a few more steps outside, and then the wind blew, so I coughed. Say, are you Not intentional?"

Seeing Li Jue's complaining eyes, Guo Zi panicked and didn't even care to support Li Jue, her hands kept shaking in the air: "No, no, Guo Zi... Guo Zi just has short legs, so she can't walk fast! Your Highness , don’t blame the fruit.”

As he spoke, Guozi pouted.Li Jue looked at him suspiciously, and asked, "Why can't I blame you?"

Guozi hesitated for a while, then pulled his sleeves and said: "Because... because Guozi will be sad! Once Guozi is sad, he forgets everything, and His Highness will not be able to eat delicious things made by Guozi!"

"Oh? Are you threatening me?"

Hearing this, Guozi's eyes widened, wondering why Li Jue's reaction was different from what he imagined?He said that, shouldn't Li Jue hurry to comfort him for the sake of delicious food?

But looking at Li Jue's slightly squinted eyes, Guo Zi didn't have the courage to ask, and replied weakly, "No...don't dare."

That aggrieved look made Li Jue want to laugh. In fact, Li Jue did exactly that.The hearty laughter spread far away, and the servants outside couldn't help but wonder what happy things happened to Li Jue to laugh like this.

Seeing Li Jue's smile, Guozi immediately turned cloudy and looked at Li Jue with a smile.

This scene, no matter how you look at it, is so warm.

Li Jue suddenly thought of Fu Li, if Fu Li also wanted Guo Zi to center everything on him, it would be good to be a fool.It's a pity that Fu Li's center is not him, and she can't be fooled.

Moreover, if Fu Li wasn't Fu Li, he wouldn't have liked her either.

After thinking about it, Li Jue stopped laughing, and the smile in his eyes was replaced by melancholy.Guozi looked at Li Jue strangely, but didn't ask any further questions.

As time went by, Li Jue's complexion became more and more rosy when Guo Zi kept asking him to drink tonic soup and tonics for three days.

Finally, the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet came.

On this day, Li Jue found Fu Li and handed her a set of clothes and a mask.Fu Li was puzzled and asked, "Your Highness, why did you give these things to your subordinates?"

"Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet. You must dress in accordance with the rules of the palace. Even the guards must abide by it. And this mask is specially prepared for you to prevent anyone in the palace from beheading you with your appearance."

Hearing this, Fu Li fell silent. Did his face actually cause trouble for Li Jue?Fu Li thought so.

She would never know that because Li Jue saw her face, he would think of everything she had done for Fu Qingshi.After all, it's just jealousy.
