Princess Yuanxiu

Chapter 280 What is more important?

In the quiet room, the sandalwood fragrance is soft and diluted. When Du Qingtang came in, Xuanhong was facing him and looking at the Sanqing statue hanging in the main hall of the quiet room.

Cyan Taoist clothes, jade lotus crown, this former emperor who was also known as Chang'an, now only has a plain figure.

Du Qingtang entered the quiet room without saying anything. Shiran found the first seat and sat down, put his hands in his sleeves, and closed his eyes to refresh himself.

"Are you still here?" After a lot of incense, Xuanhong turned around and said softly as if he had just found him.

"Hmm." Du Qingtang seemed to be very casual in front of her, and her eyes did not open, but just answered.

Xuanhong didn't care. He slowly walked to the side, made a cup of tea and put it beside him with his own hands. He said indifferently, "I remember you have always liked this Shenquan Xiaotuan."

Du Qingtang listened, then opened his eyes, picked up the tea bowl and sniffed it, and said with a smile, "I don't want you to be so good here."

"It is said to be a monk, but although the meat in the annual case is reduced, there are still these things." Xuanhong said indifferently that she was the youngest sister of Emperor Xianzong. Although there were many concubines and ministers of Xianzong, because Wang Taiqing ruled the royal family at the beginning, among the heirs of Emperor Huaizong, only Xianzong, the current King of Lu, and the late King Guang, as well as the three emperors Jiashan, Yanqing and Xuanhong, lived to adulthood, so the tribute When he arrived at the palace, Xianzong always had to leave some for his brothers and sisters.

When it came to Fengchun, it still followed.

"You haven't been here for many years, but I don't know what's wrong with this time?" After Xuanhong finished speaking, he suddenly changed his words and asked directly.

Du Qingtang smiled and said, "I've been complaining before, but this time I'm still complaining, but this time it's good that I'm not all bitter."

"Oh?"

"Your lord... Oh, it's Princess Yuanxiu. A few days ago, she asked herself to drop down." Du Qingtang said lightly, but Xuanhong was stunned and almost didn't drop the tea bowl in his hand: "Jiu Niang?!"

Du Qingtang nod his head.

"I knew that you were a eloquent before the emperor ascended the throne, but I also knew Jiu Niang's temper. That's not a girl who could say what she did. What she decided was useless to persuade... At the beginning, for the sake of the eldest son, she didn't even give the face of me and Xue. What did you say? Take her?" Xuanhong's face was incredible. Although her niece was not raised by her, at least she was the only daughter of the Empress Dowager Wenhua. Every time she sent something to the palace, she always asked a few questions. She grew up with a heart - isn't Yuan Xiu's temper easy to provoke? It's enough to let her push away the outstanding children full of Chang'an and drop the nameless Du Furi, but she still took the initiative to ask for the decline?!

"This is difficult here. Although you have mentioned it to this, you may not be willing to agree today." Du Qingtang frowned and sighed.

Xuanhong held the tea bowl and thought for a moment and said, "When I became a monk, Wulang was still young. I don't know what kind of temperament he is now, but he loved Jiu Niang very much when he was young..."

Du Qingtang smiled and said, "Don't you know who you are today? Although he made up his mind not to accept this matter, he only said that Fu'er was not honorable after listening to your request. Besides, it is not a matter for the princess to decline for a day or two. It's better to wait until the next year to open the subject and ask Fu'er to enter the exam, and then lower the marriage after getting the ranking. In this way, your face is also glorious. Now there is still Eight or nine months, not to mention eight or nine months, three or five groups of people have been found in the Duke's mansion in the past two days - today, I have not refused your request. Is it possible that I will pester you to force him to admit that he intends to kill Fuer before the beginning of the subject?

Xuanhong has been speechless for a long time. Although she has gone out of state, she will never forget all the royal methods. After thinking about it, she said, "Do you know about this?"

"This is your purpose." Du Qingtang sighed, "She chose Fu'er for me. If I can't even protect her, why should she believe me?"

"..." Nephew and niece were actually of the same heart, and Xuanhong was also a little speechless. For a long time, he said, "What can I do?"

Du Qingtang smiled bitterly and said, "I'm not doing anything, but I'm here to ask you about your temperament." He explained, "When the late emperor was there, your lord was still young, and Empress Dowager Zhaoxian always raised her in the deep palace and refused to let her out easily. At that time, she was busy with political affairs. Although I had seen some of the temperament of the kings, the emperors were not very clear from Princess Changyang, and now they are a little uncertain about the nobleman's intention. "

Xuanhong also felt a headache after hearing this: "Juniang's temperament is also just listening to the people who came to greet and send things during the New Year's Festival in the palace - after the Empress Dowager Wenhua went, she was taken care of by Wang, who was still Huifei at that time. Huifei had no daughter under her knees, and King Peng disappeared early. Moreover, she raised Jiu Niang or the former emperor. Naturally, she will not be treated badly, and Xue, the wet nurse around her, is not a loss, so sex. Zi heard that she was a little indulgent, but whether it was Zhaoxian or Xue, although she loved her, she was the daughter of the Wang clan and could not teach unreasonable girls. Therefore, in my opinion, Jiu Niang is certainly very sexual in trivial matters. Son, you are not confused about the big thing... This time you forced her to ask herself to go down to Du Furi, and you must have seen through this point?"

"Even so, there are differences in major events." When Xuanhong talked about Princess Yuanxiu, Du Qingtang closed his eyes and listened. Her face was calm, but her tone was a little mocking.

Xuan Hong was stunned: "What?"

"Mencius said that the people are the most precious, the society is second, and the king is the light." Du Qingtang said indifferently, "I have read the books of sages since I was a child. I came from two lists, and naturally I also followed the words of ancient sages."

He opened his eyes and looked at Xuanhong, smiling and said, "In the eyes of people like me, Li Min is the heaviest!"

Xuan Hong frowned and only heard Du Qingtang ask slowly, "But in the eyes of the royal family? Although life is heavy, it is difficult to weigh more than the country, and the country often becomes less than the safety of the king himself! The former Sui Dynasty has never flourished. If Sui Shizong had not regarded the people as grass mustard and was so happy, he first conquered Goryeo and returned to the south of the Yangtze River, which made the people unable to live and shake the society, how could he have fallen to a position of being slain by his ministers and even his wife and children?

"Your lord is also a member of the royal family. I don't doubt that she has the awareness of taking the overall situation, but what I want to know is whether the overall situation in her eyes is the world first or the royal family first?" Du Qingtang's eyes were heavy and he looked directly at Xuan Hong!

When Xuanhong heard this, he finally understood: "Are you worried that Jiu Niang may do this to test you, or she may cooperate with Goro to deliberately slowly explore your ability and consume the power in your hand?"
