Because Doudou's itinerary changed, Huo Xiao left the Dou family that afternoon under the pretext of arranging manpower.

As soon as he returned to the palace, he didn't even have time to change his clothes, so he went straight to King Fu's courtyard.

It was the first time that King Fu saw Huo Xiao since he came back from the racecourse, and when he saw him in a hurry, he smiled angrily: "The stinky boy is still willing to come back, Lao Tzu still thinks that you went to the Dou family to be a son-in-law." ”

Where did Huo Xiao still have the heart to listen to King Fu's jokes, and said solemnly: "Second old man, has the emperor's uncle made any moves recently?"

King Fu stopped joking, and said, "What do you mean?"

Huo Xiao said: "Recently, I didn't care about the news from Beijing, Xiao Lian's father suddenly wrote to her to return to Shandong as much as possible, this must be the emperor's uncle has vacated his place, so I came to inquire from you." ”

King Fu pulled Huo Xiao to his side and sat down, "I know that your kid is now full of the affairs of the Yuan family, and he hasn't become someone's son-in-law yet, so it's just a fool's concern!"

Seeing that Huo Xiao was still looking straight at him, King Fu continued: "Naturally, there is news, half a month ago, the official Shangshu Zhishi returned to his hometown, and this position must be prepared for your father-in-law." And your quasi-father-in-law seems to have won the emperor's heart, and yesterday's secret report also said that the second prince and the fourth prince had left the capital five days ago. ”

Huo Xiao raised his eyebrows: "Do you mean that the emperor's uncle sent Yu Wenheng and Yu Wenkai to Shandong in person, the purpose of which is to accompany Lord Yuan back to Beijing?"

King Fu said: "Don't think too much, after all, Yuan Zongzhi is only a four-grade prefect now, and it is not easy to go back to Beijing to directly serve as the secretary of the ministry, just the group of old ministers in the court is difficult to convince, and the two waiters in the ministry are not vegetarians, and His Majesty's move is deliberately to build momentum for him." ”

Huo Xiao sighed and said: "The old man is also well-intentioned, in order to make the emperor's uncle's kindness bigger, he has really wronged Lord Yuan in the past few years." Now that he has to face such a difficult environment when he returns to Beijing, he doesn't know how much effort he has to spend. "That worried little lentil is probably going to be in a hurry.

"You underestimate Yuan Zongzhi, if you can't even settle this matter, how can your imperial grandfather value him so much. I want to remind you kid, don't mix blindly with those princes, although Your Majesty also loves you, after all, you can't compare with your imperial grandfather, you have to be more careful. "King Fu is a little embarrassed, and he is very annoyed when he mentions these royal.

Huo Xiao stood up and said, "Che'er remembered." Then I'll go back and change my clothes, and I'll come back to dinner with you later. ”

Fu waved his hand, leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.

Huo Xiao returned to his courtyard and immediately asked Shumo to call the captain of the guard, Tie Liang.

Although Tie Liang's position is still the captain of the guard, the person who really commands the guards around Huo Xiao has been replaced by Zhou Guard, and he has been changed to be mainly responsible for collecting intelligence.

There has been a lot of news from Beijing in the past few days, but his little prince seems to have taken root in the Dou family, and he didn't even go back to the palace to fight one, which really made Tie Liang anxious.

Just after hearing Shumo say that the little prince had summoned him, he hurried over with a thick stack of secret reports.

※※※※

In the study outside the Yuan Mansion in Qingzhou, Yuan Zheng received a secret report that the two princes had left Beijing, and his head was as big as a fight for a while.

Although Emperor Yongtai is also well-intentioned for him, he really doesn't need the princes to create any momentum for him, compared to the little east wind that can be borrowed, the arrival of the princes is a big trouble.

First and foremost is security.

Although he is not solely responsible for this, if anything goes wrong with the two princes, this account will inevitably be counted on his head in the end.

What's more, he never believed that there could be any brothers, friends and brothers in the royal family, and naturally there would be no difference between the two.

The second prince, Yu Wenheng, is the queen's concubine, and his status is not to mention. The fourth prince Yu Wenkai was born by Concubine Shu, although Concubine Shu's mother family is not obvious, but she has been honored and favored for more than ten years, and she is also very rich in means, how can the son born by such a woman be simple.

The two princes may not dare to make any big moves under the emperor's nose, but as soon as they leave the capital, who knows if they will hide the murderous intention, after all, they are only teenagers, and they are not mature enough to consider the problem, and it is not impossible to be impulsive.

The second is his unobtrusive daughter-in-law.

Gu Chao was still dreaming of the prince's mother-in-law not long ago, and he finally used various excuses to make her temporarily suppress this thought, but His Majesty gave him such a play again.

No matter how stupid Gu Chao is, at this time, when she looks at such a battle, she can understand that she must be able to return to the capital this time. His husband is about to "soar", and two princes fell from the sky, this is simply a good son-in-law sent to the door, and it is difficult for her to be unhappy.

As soon as she was happy, Yuan Zheng should have a headache.

According to Gu Chao's deep-rooted concept, although she didn't look at the couple of God Queen at the beginning, but now it is different from the past, and what she sees at a glance must be the second prince Yu Wenheng, but Da Zhou Danfan who has a little source does not know that the second princess has been decided a few years ago, and the candidate is still Gu Chao's mother, Gu Old Lady Su's niece and granddaughter.

Of course, Gu Chao is also aware of this situation, but she is obviously the person who will not take this so-called "internal determination" in the eyes of the entire Great Zhou.

Back then, she could be kicked aside as a prospective princess who was married, not to mention such an "internal decision" that was nothing.

Take 10,000 steps back and say, if Yu Wenheng's side really can't succeed, Yu Wenkai's substitute is also quite good, in short, Gu Chao can wake up with a smile in his dreams.

The third is the second daughter.

When he mentioned this Yuan Zheng, he regretted that his intestines were almost green, he took the wrong medicine before he wrote a letter to ask his second daughter to come back early, but now it is too late to regret it, if it is smooth, she will probably be on the way back.

Except for King Fu, the royal men are all romantic.

Not to mention the appearance of the second daughter, her temperament is more likely to attract attention.

The princes grew up in the pile of beauties, and they may not have too many ideas when they see a girl with outstanding appearance, but the personality of the second girl is too unique, and it is difficult for the princes who are used to seeing all kinds of beautiful and small jasper to not pay attention.

If the two princes don't come to Shandong, and their family lives in the Jingnan Hou Mansion after returning to Beijing, and the daughters stay at home obediently, it is rare to encounter high-risk people like the prince, so he will naturally not worry.

But now that his mansion is such a big place, the two princes are more or less related to Gu Chao, and they will inevitably come to the inner mansion when the time comes, and the second daughter is simply unavoidable.
