Chapter 43 The fairy enters the palace

"Madam, if you want to enter Linjiang Palace, you just need to find another opportunity. Just follow the steps, why bother to commit yourself to him, Li Ke, and ruin yourself in vain." Xiao Yuexian went back to the backyard in the morning, with her lips pale and her journey was not very steady. Wen Qing'er looked at Xiao Yuexian and thought about the situation last night. Wen Qing'er didn't know what had happened, so she asked Xiao Yuexian in a hurry.

Xiao Yuexian said, "I have been deducing it for a long time, and I just said that the changes in the southeast should be between Meng and Zhong and now it is less than a month away from Meng Yue. If I don't look for an opportunity to approach Li Ke, wouldn't I miss the opportunity?"

Wen Qing'er hated the Tang Dynasty because his father Wen Shihong died at the hands of the Tang army. Li Ke was the prince of the Tang Dynasty and the grandson of Li Yuan. Wen Qing'er naturally regarded Li Ke as a hater, and Xiao Yuexian was committed to Li Ke. How could Wen Qing'er be willing to do so?

Wen Qing'er said, "Li Ke is your enemy and I am irreconcilable. There are many ways in this world. Why should you take this path and make yourself wrong?"

Xiao Yuexian is also a noble person in her bones. If it weren't for the sake of major events, why would he be willing to be despised and give Li Ke an innocent body.

When Xiao Yuexian heard Wen Qing'er's words, he frowned slightly and asked, "Li Ke is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, and he has countless attendants. Even he himself is cautious and is definitely not an easy person. If not, how can I get close to him?"

Wen Qing'er said, "My wife is thinking too much. Li Ke is young and not more military. There are many people who are not convinced by the Southeast Prefecture Army. And we still have some forces in Jiangling. If we take advantage of the chaos in the southeast, raise an army from Shannan and cooperate with Xiang Chong from Danyang to surprise Yangzhou, we will never have a chance to succeed."

When Xiao Xian established the capital of Jiangling, Jingzhou, and Xiao Liang's roots were in Jiangling. Although Li Xiaogong led a large army to pacify Xiao Xian, Xiao Liang's remaining power had not been completely removed. Xiao Liang still had some power in Jiangling. If they took advantage of the chaos and gathered more than a thousand people, it would be a big deal, and it would be enough to disturb one side.

However, Xiao Yuexian shook his head and said, "If it is decided today, the people in the southeast are at peace. What can we do with the people in Jiangling alone? If we want to subvert the southeast, we have to rely on the power of the court and the power of the military governments in various places, which is the right way."

"Taking the power of military governments in various places?" Wen Qing'er's face showed a look of surprise after hearing Xiao Yuexian's words.

Xiao Yuexian could barely control only one Danyang Prefecture commander Xiang Chong. Nearly twenty Southeast Prefectures, what is one Danyang Prefecture worth? How big a storm can it cause? What's more, Xiang Chong is not a reliable person, and must not believe it.

However, Xiao Yuexian looked at Qing'er's face full of surprise, but said confidently, "I have my own way to do this. You just need to listen to my arrangements."

Wen Qing'er looked at Xiao Yuexian, who had been struggling with Li Ke until midnight last night. Because of the bad rest, she looked a little haggard, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Xiao Yuexian is the daughter of Xiao Xian. She has been carrying national hatred and family hatred since childhood. The burden on her body has long been terrifying.

Wen Qing'er grew up with Xiao Yuexian since childhood. She knew Xiao Yuexian's stubbornness very well. As long as it was something she decided, no one could persuade her. For a moment, Wen Qing'er felt a little distressed when she looked at Xiao Yuexian.

————————————

When Xiao Yuexian was taken to Li Ke, Xiao Yuexian did not wear makeup anymore, but just washed and dressed up a little, and her haggard appearance could still be seen from her face.

Li Ke looked at Xiao Yuexian's appearance and felt more and more unbearable.

"I'm a fairy lady to pay homage to Your Highness." Xiao Yuexian walked to Li Ke's side, bent her knees like a willow that was weak, with a hint of weakness in her voice.

Li Ke stepped forward and helped Xiao Yuexian up and said to Xiao Yuexian, "You are my wife. How can I keep you here again and be looked down upon by others? You should follow me back to the palace. I will take care of you."

Xian Niang was already Li Ke’s person last night, and everyone knows that who else in Yangzhou City dared to touch her half finger?

Even if Li Ke did not take her away, she would not have any benefit to Yan Yu Building. It would be better to have a favor for Li Ke.

As for the so-called reputation of romanticism, Li Ke didn't care even more. It was common for the powerful and nobles to accumulate a girl, not to mention that Xian Niang was just a zither of Yanyulou. Her zither skills were so good that she could not be as good as the musician in the palace. Even if it was spread, it was just a beautiful story. Moreover, this incident happened to Li Ke, and others had long been used to it.

"Thank you Your Highness to protect me, I thank you for your Highness."

What the fairy lady did was to play hard to get. Since Li Ke had already taken him back to Linjiang Palace and stayed by his side to serve him, Xian Niang would never refuse again, and he was happy and upset and responded.

When Li Ke came to Yanyu Tower last night, he was leading a group of guards to ride a horse. Now that he returned to the palace and brought Xiao Yuexian, he naturally couldn't ride a horse, so he ordered the servant from Yanyu Tower to get a carriage.

But just as Li Ke and Xiao Yuexian were waiting in the lobby, they found that there was still someone standing in the lobby. The man was Zhou Dingfang, the owner of the Southeast Salt Store.

It was not afternoon and the Yanyu Building had not yet opened. Zhou Dingfang naturally came here for fun, but it was probably because of last night.

"The grass man Zhou Dingfang paid homage to His Highness the King of Chu." Zhou Dingfang saw Li Ke appearing in the lobby and hurriedly stepped forward to worship.

When Li Ke saw Zhou Ding coming forward, he asked, "Is Master Zhou Xing here?"

Zhou Dingfang said, "Mr. Zhou is here to wait for Your Highness, and has been there for a long time."

Li Ke then asked, "Oh? But I don't know why Master Zhou Xing was waiting for me?"

Zhou Dingfang said, "Zhou made a special trip to apologize to Your Highness for the sake of the child."

Li Ke pretended to be ignorant and asked, "But I don't know what the son is doing?"

Zhou Dingfang leaned over and said, "My child is blind and has no eyes, but he doesn't know the emperor's master. He actually fought with him here yesterday. It's really not. Zhou came here to apologize to His Highness."

Upon hearing this, Li Ke waved his hand and said, "What's wrong with me? It's okay. If I hadn't been in a dilemma with me last night, I would not have had the opportunity to spend a lot of money for the fairy lady. How could I win the hearts of a beautiful woman?"

Li Ke said, seemingly he did not take Zhou Shuping's offense last night's heart, but Zhou Dingfang did not dare to be careless at all, because Li Ke's words used the word "difficult".

Zhou Dingfang said to Li Ke, "Your Highness is generous, and we are grateful. However, you are kind, how dare we be arrogant? Your Highness specially brought a gift of apology."

Zhou Dingfang said, and a wooden box taken from the servant behind him came to Li Ke's eyes.

"What's this mean?" Li Ke opened the wooden box, looked at the two night pearls the size of a child's fist lying in the wooden box, and asked Zhou Dingfang.

Zhou Dingfang replied, "This is a night pearl bought by Zhou from the barbarians in the sea last year. One is worth a fortune. One is worth a fortune from His Highness last night, and the other is to congratulate His Highness on his happiness. I hope His Highness will accept it with a smile."
