Cao Xuan was speechless about Empress Dowager Cao's strong self-confidence, and he respectfully responded, obedient and humble.

Empress Dowager Cao was very satisfied with Cao Xuan's attitude, called the female official around her to come in and draft the decree, read it twice in person, felt that there was no objection, and asked the female official to use the phoenix seal, handed it over to Cao Xuan, and told him: "If you don't have a good horse, go to the palace to find Liu Qingming of the Treasure Pavilion and let him find a way for you." I remember that last year, the Western Regions also paid tribute to a sweat-sweated horse, so if you can't borrow it for a few days. Remember to bring the official seal or something, the guards also have to pick a master, the outside is not very peaceful, I remember that before I came to Wanshou Mountain, the political secretary of Shanxi also went to the fold to ask the court to help suppress the bandits. People like them, it's not that things can't be cleaned up, and they won't go to such a fold. It can be seen that Shanxi is already in chaos, which is why I agreed with the Li family to return to Shanxi. ”

Cao Xuan nodded.

Empress Dowager Cao confessed a few more words, and then let Cao Xuan leave.

Cao Xuan took the edict and walked slowly like a hot potato.

When he left the Yiyun Pavilion, he met Min Chuan, followed by several waiters carrying food boxes.

"Grandpa Guo, you are going back!" he saluted Cao Xuan with a smile and said, "Seeing that it is about to be lunch, Grandpa Guo will not eat here before leaving?"

"No!" Cao Xuan said absentmindedly, "The Queen Mother has something to tell me, I'm in a hurry to do something!"

Min Chuan smiled and stepped aside, and said, "Grandpa Guo, you go slowly! It's a pity that I won't go to the Zongren Mansion until tomorrow to get the summer clothes, otherwise I can go back to the city with Grandpa Guo." ”

Cao Xuan was stunned when he heard this, and then secretly scolded himself for being "stupid".

No wonder the Queen Mother said that he was not as good as Li Qian.

Why didn't he think that in addition to Jiang Zhenyuan in this world, the Empress Dowager loved Jiang Xian the most.

The Empress Dowager will not think as much as Jiang Zhenyuan thinks.

If her old man knew that the Queen Mother wanted to force Jiang Xian to marry Li Qian, she would never agree.

How could he have forgotten this great god?

Cao Xuan patted Min Chuan's shoulder, said "thank you", turned his head and hurriedly turned back to Yiyun Pavilion.

Min Chuan was stunned, looked at Cao Xuan's background in confusion and blinked, and unhurriedly took the group of small waiters holding food boxes into the Yiyun Pavilion.

Cao Xuan gasped and rushed into the side hall, where the Empress Dowager Cao was being served by two little palace maids and putting on her shoes, preparing to go to lunch.

Seeing this, he couldn't help but say, "Ah Xuan, what made you lose your temper so much?"

Cao Xuan already had a solution in his heart, and was secretly excited, he just smiled when he heard the words, and then drove the two little palace maids out, sat beside the Empress Dowager Cao and said softly: "Auntie, why did you forget the Empress Dowager!"

Empress Dowager Cao didn't expect to come over for a while.

Cao Xuan said: "Think about it, then Jiang Lu and Wang Zan must have brought a lot of guards and entourage in the past, the Jiang family's guard entourage is not those fancy shelfs used by the children of the gentlemen to support the scene, think about it, I will take so many people with me, what if Jiang Lu does not accept the order and does not recognize this family business?"

Isn't this also the reason why the Cao family needs to rely on the Li family?

Without force, there is no right to speak!

Empress Dowager Cao looked at Cao Xuan's faintly joyful face, and couldn't help laughing: "Then what good idea do you have?"

Cao Xuan calmed down, and let his tone be as calm and soothing as possible: "I think, instead of this marriage decree by you, it is better for the empress dowager to make it!"

"You mean......" Empress Dowager Cao immediately understood, and her eyes lit up.

Cao Xuan said: "Think about it, if the Jiang family can not listen to us, can they still not listen to the Empress Dowager? Even if they don't listen, it is their business with the Empress Dowager, what do we have to do with it? Moreover, the phoenix seal is here, if the Empress Dowager wants to make an order, she can only use the emperor's jade seal." If the Jiang family does not comply, it will be a rebellion. ”

The Holy Decree is more formal and majestic than the Decree.

"Not bad, not bad!" Empress Dowager Cao looked at Cao Xuan with satisfaction, "You finally did something with a brain." ”

Cao Xuan was embarrassed.

I thought that if one day you found out what I had done, don't tear me up.

However, the Empress Dowager and his aunt have always been kings who don't see the king, it shouldn't be such a coincidence, he just did something against his aunt and was discovered, right?

Cao Xuan rushed back to the capital.

When he asked to see the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager was having lunch with the Empress Dowager.

After listening to the palace maid's advice, she couldn't help but look at the sky outside, and said confusedly: "At this time?"

The palace maid nodded hurriedly and said, "Cheng Engong said that I am looking for you in an urgent matter, so that you can see him no matter what." ”

There are almost no such words at the time of the audience, and the Empress Dowager suddenly thought of Jiang Wan, who had not yet returned to the palace, and suddenly became a little anxious, put down her chopsticks and went to the side hall.

Cao Xuan was turning around the side hall, and when he saw the Empress Dowager, he immediately ran over, and said to the Empress Dowager who came with him: "Please help us watch the door, I have something to say to the Empress Dowager alone." ”

The faces of the two old men changed, and the imperial concubine took away the people who served with them without asking a word.

Cao Xuan helped the Empress Dowager to sit down on the Arhat bed in the side hall, and then took the Empress Dowager Cao's edict and told the Empress Dowager what had happened in the past few days.

The Empress Dowager almost fainted when she heard this.

Cao Xuan was frightened enough, and couldn't help but regret that he acted too recklessly, and didn't take into account the fact that the Empress Dowager was too old to be stimulated, so he hurriedly called Meng Fangling to come in and gave the Empress Dowager a pill that comforted and protected the liver.

The Empress Dowager closed her eyes and recuperated her spirits, sent Meng Fangling, and asked Cao Xuan: "You mean, no one knows now whether Jianan eloped with Li Qian or was kidnapped, but the Cao family wants to insist that Jianan eloped with Li Qian, you want to run in person, let me write you two holy decrees, if Jianan eloped with Li Qian, give marriage." If Jianan was kidnapped by Li Qian, Li Qian would be killed. Is that what it means?"

"Yes!" Cao Xuan hadn't figured out what the Empress Dowager meant, but in order to save time and show his sincerity, he showed his hole card to the Empress Dowager, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in his heart, and said cautiously, "Empress Dowager, I grew up watching Jianan, and when it comes to it, I'm still her brother-in-law." The grievances of the Cao family and the Jiang family are one thing, but if it is Jianan's marriage is another thing, I don't want Jianan to become another princess of Taiping.

Now Jiang Lu and Wang Zan have rushed over.

"If Jianan went to Shanxi with Li Qian voluntarily, and Jiang Lu and Li Qian met, Jianan would definitely protect Li Qian. But how could Jiang Lu let Li Qian go? If Jianan was kidnapped by Li Qian and Jiang Lu chased after him, then if Li Qian used Jianan as a hostage to coerce Jiang Lu, Jianan would probably be worried about his life.

"Wouldn't that make the relatives hurt the enemies quickly!"

The Empress Dowager pursed her lips tightly, her eyes gloomily leaned on the big pillow, and she didn't speak for a long time.

Cao Xuan didn't dare to urge, and waited on the side with bated breath.

"I understand!" After a long time, the Empress Dowager said slowly, "Qinghui said that Jianan would not elope, but she did not deny that Jiang Xian often met with Li Qian in private, right?"

Cao Xuan nodded and said, "Qinghui did say so. ”
