Huo Xiao's words made Yu Wenheng confused. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

He had a faint bad premonition in his heart, but he didn't think much about it.

Yunni Villa is not far from the capital, and it is only an hour to ride a horse.

It's only five years of Yongtai now, and my father rarely lets them get in touch with political affairs, so he doesn't have any reason to go out of Beijing at all, so why have a smooth journey?

He continued to stay in Huo Xiao's courtyard cheekily, and stuck between Huo Xiao and Doudou to talk to the two.

Huo Xiao reluctantly played a few games of chess with him, and the three of them even had lunch together.

Contrary to the calm of Yunni Villa, the Second Prince's Mansion was like water about to boil, and the gurgling began to bubble.

The news that His Majesty the Emperor intends to send the second prince to Jiangxi to investigate the salt affairs has not yet come out, and even Empress Pei, who has placed eyeliner in the imperial study, does not know.

But Dong Bi was in the cabinet, and he saw the Jiujiang Mansion Salt Transport Envoy Si Yun and that twist and turn.

Seeking wealth and danger is clear to everyone in the court, and Dong Bi understands it better than anyone else.

People come from different backgrounds, have different environments and statuses, and naturally look at problems from different angles.

In the eyes of nobles like Huo Xiao and the princes, the risks of investigating and handling salt affairs far outweigh the opportunities, and it is really not worth the risk.

In the eyes of Dong Bi, a person who has no background and has purely relied on himself to climb to a high position step by step over the past decades, this is a God-given opportunity.

The court is too calm, the capital is too calm, the princes are all stable, and I don't know when I want to stand out.

This is like his life in the Hanlin Academy when he was just a junior high, which makes people breathless.

Huo Xiao once said to Doudou that the war more than 20 years ago achieved Pei Tingyan's first-class marquis title, and also achieved the marriage between Master Huo and Princess Yongfu.

As everyone knows, it was also that war that made today's Dong Ge Lao.

If he hadn't risked his life back then, he might still be a sesame petty official in a corner today, and continue to eat and wait for death.

Huo Xiao can guess Emperor Yongtai's thoughts, and so can Dong Bi.

His Majesty the Emperor attaches great importance to the matter of salt affairs in Jiangxi, but obviously does not want to make too much trouble.

It is only fitting to send a prince who has no real power in his hands and an unparalleled dignity to visit such a thing.

So, which prince will His Majesty the Emperor send?

Dong Bi immediately made a decision in his heart, this matter must be fought for his son-in-law.

But His Majesty the Emperor has not yet revealed his intentions, and Dong Bi is not good at taking the initiative to ask for his son-in-law, in case he is suspicious of His Majesty, the gains outweigh the losses.

For a while, he was a little embarrassed.

After simply leaving the court, he hurried to the Second Prince's Mansion, intending to inform his son-in-law in advance, so that he could be fully prepared, and once the opportunity came, he should not push it out.

He also knows Yu Wenheng too well, smart, treacherous, and thick-skinned, but he is greedy for enjoyment and afraid of hardship in his bones.

This is also a common problem among the children of the royal family, and it will not change in another 10,000 years.

What disappointed him was that his son-in-law was not in the house!

Emperor Yongtai did not let the princes participate in politics, they did not need to go to the court.

At this time, it was not good to study in the house, and he actually sneaked out to play! But Dong Bi was angry.

The second princess, Dong Yuexin, was smart and delicate, and soon understood her father's intentions.

She resolutely disagreed with her father's suggestion that the second prince go to Jiangxi to investigate the salt affairs.

Seeing that Concubine Su Wan's belly was getting bigger and bigger day by day, her heart was indescribably anxious.

She knows better than anyone else the second prince's romantic nature.

Their husband and wife are no longer as affectionate and sweet as when they were newly married, but the second prince always respects her, and he is always with her for about ten days a month.

She can't conceive a child just like this, and she won't have a chance after the second prince leaves Beijing!

Maybe when the second prince returns to Beijing, Su Wan has already given birth to her eldest son, and the fox spirit is the best at seducing people, what can she do to fight with her?

Dong Bi was even more angry when he saw his daughter's attitude, sure enough, it was the long hair and short knowledge, the woman's opinion!

Dong Yuexin has been the princess for a year, and she is no longer the little girl who obeyed her father in the past.

The father and daughter couldn't help but argue.

"Xin'er, Your Highness has no future, and it's useless for you to give birth to a hundred sons-in-law!"

"Father, the daughter has no sons-in-law, and it has nothing to do with you that Your Highness has 10,000 sons!"

Both of them have a point, and neither of them tries to persuade anyone.

The subordinates all hid far away, and did not dare to persuade half a sentence at all.

Dong Bi blew his beard and stared, hating to shake off the two big-eared shavers of the second princess.

The two were at a stalemate, and a eunuch in the palace came to pass on His Majesty's message, summoning the second prince to enter the palace early tomorrow morning to meet him.

Dong Bi's anger disappeared in an instant, His Majesty the Emperor summoned the second prince definitely to investigate the matter of salt affairs, this is to experience the meaning of the second prince!

He hurriedly explained a few words to his daughter and left.

It is a good thing for the second prince to go to the training, but the risk still exists, and he has to arrange all the affairs of the trip for his son-in-law.

Dong Yuexin almost didn't hold back in one breath, her father is ruthless, and His Royal Highness's father is not a good thing!

However, she was angry, but her mind was very clear, and she immediately summoned the little servant who was waiting for the second prince and asked him to find Yu Wenheng.

At the same time, he instructed the maid to dress her up and change her clothes, and got into the carriage and entered the palace to find Queen Pei.

In addition to the fact that she is not pregnant, Queen Pei is basically satisfied with Dong Yuexin's daughter-in-law.

But today, seeing her in a hurry, Queen Pei's heroic brows furrowed, and she said coldly: "Dong, what about your demeanor?"

Dong Yuexin quickly reined in her steps, and when she saw that there were no outsiders next to her, she knelt down and said, "Queen Mother, Your Highness is going to Jiangxi to investigate the salt affairs." ”

Empress Pei's eyes suddenly widened: "What did you say!"

I can't help but be impressed by this daughter-in-law, what she doesn't know, the daughter-in-law is actually clear!

Dong Yuexin knew that she was a little reckless, after all, His Majesty the Emperor only said that he would summon the second prince early, and did not say the purpose of the summoning at all, she was simply speculating on the holy will by saying this, and it could be said that she had committed a big taboo.

She hurriedly explained the incident in detail with Queen Pei.

Empress Pei rubbed the jade bracelet on her wrist and muttered, "These words were said to you by your father?"

Dong Yuexin was busy, and picked up Dong Bi's previous words again.

Empress Pei's brows loosened a lot.

Dong Bi is an old fox, everyone knows this, and there will be absolutely nothing wrong with his words.

Heng'er's trip to Jiangxi is indeed an opportunity.

Of course, on the premise that he successfully completed his errands and returned to Beijing unscathed.

Dong Bi has been an official for decades, and there are many people who can be used under him, even if Heng'er can't make a big contribution with his help, he can't make a big mistake.

And she knows Emperor Yongtai's temper best, and no one can persuade him to settle down.

She motioned to Qi Su to help Dong Yuexin up, and said softly: "The queen mother knows what you are worried about, don't worry, Your Majesty is very distressed about her son, and she will definitely let Heng'er return to Beijing before the year." ”
