Chapter 515 Liu Xi’s identity
Liu Xilai said that Leng Yu would soon be sent to the Yu Prince's Mansion if he entered the palace. Leng Yu and Luo Lan could guess that Liu Xi must have something urgent, otherwise he would not have come to the palace early in the morning.
Leng Yu did not dare to delay, so he quickly changed into formal clothes and headed straight to the palace.
Liu Xi was waiting at the gate of Yangxin Palace. When he saw Leng Yu coming over, he hurriedly met him.
"Prince Yu, the emperor is infected with the cold and will be cured in about seven days. In these seven days, I'll help you handle memorials and court affairs as before."
"I don't agree..."
Before Leng Yu could respond, a voice with objection appeared out of thin air. Leng Yu and Liu Xi both turned around and saw Leng Xi strode with a black look on his face. Before the person arrived, the voice could not wait to arrive first.
When he saw him, Liu Xi frowned, while Leng Yu looked calm.
When he came close, Liu Xi bowed and asked politely:
"Why did Prince Xi disagree? The last time the emperor was sick, it was Prince Yu who handled state affairs on his behalf. Is there anything wrong with this?"
"Last time he was the prince, but now he has been deposed for making a big mistake. How can he take on this important task? I want to know, is this the emperor's idea or Eunuch Liu's idea?"
Seeing that he had said this, Liu Xi simply raised his eyebrows and replied calmly:
"The old slave does not have such great power. It was instructed by the emperor. The old slave just passes the message on his behalf."
"Impossible, the father will not instruct him. I will go to see the father and ask about this."
After saying that, he was about to walk to the gate of Yangxin Palace. Liu Xi took two steps quickly, stopped him, and said with a serious expression:
"Prince Xi, the emperor is seriously ill and needs to take care of himself. I have ordered the Ministry of Rites to issue a notice to all the princes and ministers. It is inappropriate for you to go in and see the emperor now, so you might as well please go back."
Seeing Liu Xi deliberately blocking him, Leng Xi's face suddenly became gloomy. He looked at Liu Xi and asked word by word:
"When I came yesterday, my father was still fine, why did he suddenly get seriously ill today? I suspect you are lying...
"If Prince Xi doesn't believe it, you will know if you go to the Imperial Hospital to ask Doctor Wang. He just came in the morning and prescribed a medicine to calm the spirit. He can confirm that the emperor is indeed sick."
"Even so, the state affairs in the court should not be handed over to Prince Yu for handling, which is too hasty."
Sloppy?
Hearing these two words, Leng Yu's handsome eyes, who had been standing in the silent words, instantly became cold. He raised his eyebrows and sneered:
"What does Fifth Brother mean? Is it a hasty way to hand over the State Council to me? Then who else is not a hasty way to hand it over? Are you?"
Leng Xi turned his face to the side with guilt, and snorted lightly.
"I dare not take on this important task. When my father was seriously ill, who would handle the state affairs, should be decided by the ministers, or if there was an imperial edict from my father, instead of just passing a word by Eunuch Liu."
Seeing Leng Xi doubting him, Liu Xi was unwilling to explain too much, but said coldly:
"The emperor instructed the old slave to convey the words. If Prince Xi feels something is wrong, please come and ask the emperor again in seven days."
After saying that, he turned to look at Leng Yu,
"Prince Yu, don't waste time here. Please ask for your study room. I guess all the people who come to deliver the memorials will arrive in a while."
Seeing that Liu Xi and Leng Yu actually ignored him, Leng Xi was so angry that his face was bulging with blue veins. He took big steps and headed towards the Yangxin Palace regardless of concern. Leng Yu was about to stop him, but was stopped by Liu Xi. He shook his head at him and signaled him not to act rashly.
Before Leng Xi could arrive at the gate of Yangxin Hall, several eunuchs bowed and stopped him.
"Prince Xi, the emperor is in a state of discomfort and has fallen asleep, so it is not convenient to see guests."
"Get out."
Leng Xi's voice became sharp, and the little eunuchs were still standing there without moving.
Seeing this, Leng Xi raised his hand and slapped a little eunuch in the face. The moment his slap fell, his hand was pinched tightly.
While a sensation of soreness came, he looked up in surprise and saw Liu Xi looking at him calmly, putting his hand down from the air, bowing slowly and said:
"Prince Xi, please come back!"
Liu Xi's words were concise and neat, but Leng Xi was speechless.
He stared at Liu Xi in a daze, and a surprised and ruthless look appeared in his eyes.
He gritted his teeth, turned around in resentment, and took big steps away.
This Liu Xi, as rumored, has profound martial arts skills. Just now, he just gently snatched his wrist and felt like his bones were about to break. This is why he dared not continue to break through.
It seems that if you want to successfully take up the throne, you not only need to defend Leng Yu and Liu Dechang, but also add Liu Xi, the dike.
But what method should be used to make Liu Xi use for his own use?
Thinking of this, he turned around and headed straight for Liyuan.
To put it, he hadn't come to Liyuan for about a few days. To be more precise, he had never been to Liyuan again since his mother's ceremony was cancelled. He was angry with his mother and hated her for being so impatient that she wanted to cause trouble before the ceremony, so that someone caught the handle, and the ceremony was cancelled.
When he came to Liyuan, Concubine Li was sitting upright in the main hall drinking tea. He hurried forward and bowed and said:
"Mother, are you in good health recently?"
But Concubine Li didn't look at him at all. She casually picked up the lid of the cup, gently brushed the tea foam floating on the tea water, and snorted coldly with disdain.
"I rumored that you didn't come a few times, so I just wanted to come to invite you in person. Why did Prince Xi have time to come to Liyuan today?"
Judging from the tone of Li Fei, she must be angry. Leng Xi hurriedly bowed and apologized:
"I am ashamed. I have a lot of things on hand recently, so I don't have time to come to Liyuan to pay my respects to you. Don't blame me."
"If you are polite, don't say it. I know your personality better than anyone else. Tell me, what's the matter with me?"
Seeing that Concubine Li guessed his thoughts, Leng Xi shook her head and denied it.
"It's okay. My son just went to Yangxin Palace and was rejected. I thought I hadn't seen my mother for a few days, so I came to see you."
"Isn't the emperor sick? What else are you doing? It would be strange if you don't get turned away."
"What I care about is not this. What I care about is that my father actually handed over the power of state affairs to Leng Yu again. This is not a good phenomenon. My son is a little worried."
Concubine Li picked up the teacup on the table and turned it around in her hand, with a sharp snorkeling.
"Is this all the tricks that Liu Xi did?"
"How do you know about the mother?"
Concubine Li stood up, walked slowly in the hall a few steps, and while standing still, she continued with her eyes half-squinted:
"The emperor trusts him very much. Now he is suddenly seriously ill, so he naturally has no intention of arranging who will handle state affairs. This made Liu Xi take advantage of the situation. Moreover, he ordered someone to spread Leng Yu early in the morning. This concubine had expected this would be the result."
Concubine Li's words made Leng Xi's face pale in an instant. When he thought of Liu Xi, he asked in confusion:
"Does the mother know the origin of Liu Xi? I just learned about it when my son-in-law was fighting with him. He had a very deep internal skills and his skills were definitely not inferior to Liu Dechang. But since he had such a high skill, why would he be a eunuch beside his father? What can we control him?"
