The question of whether to let Murong He go has been pestering Xuanyuan Mo, he has always refused to bow his head to himself, if he is let go like this, Xuanyuan Mo is a little unwilling in his heart, but now he is still unwilling to tear his face with Qi Fangfei, after all, she still has some use value now.

"Come here." Xuanyuan Mo shouted his henchman to his side and explained softly, "I asked you to investigate the matter of the Eighth Emperor before, but there is a result?" ”

"I'm sorry!" The henchman cautiously explained, "The people we sent out haven't heard anything back yet, and I'll urge you again today." ”

Xuanyuan Mo glared at his henchman dissatisfiedly and said, "Now you don't even listen to my words, and the things I explain are actually the same thing." ”

"I don't dare." The henchman immediately knelt down and explained, "The loyalty of the humble position to the three princes can be learned. ”

"What are you doing here, don't hurry up and do what I told you." Xuanyuan Mo said angrily.

After Qi Fangfei and Xuanyuan Mo separated, the more they thought about it, the more angry they became, so they didn't go back to the Great Prince's Mansion, but went to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Daddy!" Qi Fangfei angrily pushed open the door of the study, and saw Qi Yangzhen sitting there with a sad face, so she immediately rushed over and asked in an unkind tone, "What's going on?" How could you do such a thing? ”

"Fang Fei." Seeing Qi Fangfei appear, Qi Yang seemed to see a life-saving straw, and immediately said excitedly: "You came just in time, you hurry up and help your father think of a way." Now the Eighth Prince has been investigating the corruption in the court, and if I am found out, then not only will I be finished, but our entire Prime Minister's Mansion will be implicated, and you will not be an exception. ”

Qi Fangfei, who was already unhappy, heard the hidden threat in Qi Yang's words, and was even more unhappy in her heart, but she didn't show it, she held back her temper and asked: "The matter of business and official position is not trivial, how could you do such a foolish thing?" ”

"Dad doesn't want to, but those people are holding a lot of silver and sending it to the door, and I can't push the silver sent to the door out!" Qi Yang was still quibbling: "Besides, I have always done these things seamlessly, and there has been nothing wrong for so many years, who would have thought that the Eighth Prince would investigate the corruption in the DPRK and China so seriously this time, and several officials have already been found out." ”

Qi Fangfei was angry and didn't know what to say, although she took care of Xuanyuan Mo and asked him to release Murong He, Xuanyuan Jue might not continue to investigate in order to give Murong He an innocence, then the Prime Minister's Mansion would be able to drag it out, but what Xuanyuan Mo would do was still unknown.

"Fang Fei, hurry up and help Dad think of a way, Dad can't have an accident!" Seeing Qi Fangfei with an indifferent face and not speaking, Qi Yang was a little anxious, and kept urging Qi Fangfei.

"You asked me to find a way, what can I do now?" Qi Fangfei asked Qi Yang at a loss, "Now that the eldest prince is still unconscious, there is no one who can help, what can you do if you let me be a woman?" ”

"If you don't go and beg the eighth prince, maybe you will let us go for the sake of the emperor's relatives." Qi Yang said whimsically.

Qi Fangfei looked at Qi Yang incredulously, and said speechlessly: "Dad, you are confused, the Eighth Emperor and the Ninth Emperor are all the way, and the Nine Emperors and the Great Prince are hostile, how can you think that the Eighth Emperor is willing to help us, maybe he will investigate more deeply after knowing about you." ”

Hearing Qi Fangfei say this, Qi Yang looked at her with a dead face, and the silence in the study was like a pool of stagnant water, and after a long time, Qi Yang's eyes slowly had killing intent, and he said ruthlessly: "It's not as good as us-" Qi Yang didn't say the next words, but made a killing move towards Qi Fangfei.

Qi Fangfei also looked at Qi Yang with a solemn face, calculating the method Qi Yang said in her mind.

"How's that? Dad really can't think of any other way other than this. Qi Yang asked helplessly.

"You make me think about it again." Qi Fangfei was still a little hesitant, pacing back and forth in the study.

"Master, the palace is here." Just when the atmosphere in the study was tense, the servants in the house shouted at the door.

"What's the matter?" Qi Yang was startled for a moment, but quickly calmed down and asked through the door.

"The emperor let you go to the palace." The subordinate replied loudly.

"I know, you go and tell the messenger, and say that I will change my clothes and enter the palace." After Qi Yang sent his subordinates away, he turned to look at Qi Fangfei, who looked more solemn, and whispered: "The emperor suddenly asked me to enter the palace for some reason, I will enter the palace first, and you will help me find a way when I go back." ”

"I see, I'll figure it out." Qi Fangfei nodded, watching Qi Yang leave, feeling irritable in her heart, feeling that everything was not going according to her heart, she kicked the chair next to her foot hard, and then left the study in a hurry.

When Qi Yang walked into the emperor's study, he was slightly surprised when he saw Xuanyuan Jue also inside, but the surprise on his face was only a flash, and he quickly calmly asked the emperor and Xuanyuan Jue to say goodbye.

"Prime Minister Qi, I called you into the palace today because the Eighth Prince said that he had something to say to you." The emperor said with a smile.

"Yes!" Qi Yang turned slightly to look at Xuanyuan Jue and asked respectfully, "I don't know what the Eighth Prince has to say to his ministers." ”

"The prime minister doesn't have to be formal, the prime minister is an old minister in the court, I just want to ask the prime minister." Xuanyuan Jue said flattering words, but there was no smile on his face, and the coldness made people feel very pressured.

"Don't dare, the eighth prince, please speak." Qi Yang lowered his head and waited for Xuanyuan Jue's question.

"I recently heard about a major incident in the DPRK and China, and it is said that some officials will use their positions to sell and sell their official positions for profit, I wonder if the prime minister can hear about this?" Xuanyuan Jue asked coldly.

Qi Yang's heart tightened, but fortunately he lowered his head, and neither the emperor nor Xuanyuan Jue noticed the panic that flashed on his face. He took a deep breath, plucked up his courage, raised his head, looked at Xuanyuan Jue calmly, and said, "Is there such a thing?" I don't know, I don't know where the eighth prince heard about this? ”

"I'm free, it turns out that the prime minister hasn't heard of this!" Xuanyuan Juepi looked at Qi Yang with a smile, and said with some mockery: "Then if this matter is true, how does the prime minister think to put an end to this evil phenomenon?" ”

"Of course, we have to be strict." Qi Yang pretended to be indignant and said, secretly glanced at the emperor's expression, and saw that the emperor had his eyes closed, as if he was asleep, and he couldn't guess whether the emperor heard the conversation between himself and Xuanyuan Jue, and he didn't know what the emperor thought.

"It turns out that the prime minister is the same as I thought." Xuanyuan Jue smiled, then turned to look at the emperor and said: "Father, the prime minister and his sons have the same idea, and I also ask my father to continue to agree to investigate the corruption and bribery of officials in the court." ”

The emperor opened his eyes, sharply looked back and forth between Xuanyuan Jue and Qi Yang a few times, and finally looked at Xuanyuan Jue's body and said lightly: "Since the eighth prince has this heart, then I am ready." I will issue an order for you to clean up a batch of pests for the court. ”

"Yes, the son will not live up to his father's expectations." Xuanyuan Jue said firmly, then looked at Qi Yang, saw the panic in his eyes, and sneered in his heart.

After leaving from the emperor's study, Xuanyuan Jue called out to Qi Yang, who was about to leave, and said with a smile: "Regarding the investigation of corruption and bribery of officials in the DPRK and China, I also ask the prime minister to help me with all his might." ”

"The Eighth Prince is very smart, why do you need my help." Qi Yang, who had slowly calmed down, said smoothly.

"It's all ginger is old and spicy, Prime Minister Qi has been an official for decades, whether it is experience or others, he is much better than me, of course it is best to ask you for help." Xuanyuan Jue said with some compliments.

"Thank you for the love of the Eighth Prince, but I am old and a little powerless, I am afraid that I will lose the mind of the Eighth Prince." Qi Yang politely refused.

"In that case, then I won't be reluctant to take my leave." Xuanyuan Jue didn't continue to force Qi Yang, and left first with a smile.

Neither of them realized that this conversation would fall into the eyes of some well-intentioned people.

"Did you find it?" Xuanyuan Mo sat leisurely in the hall, watched his henchman walk in, and asked seemingly casually.

"Yes, I found it. Concubine Huangxian has indeed been a little unwell in the past few days, and even the emperor and queen have gone over to see that on the night when there were assassins in the palace, the eighth prince did come back from the palace. The henchman replied solemnly.

After thinking silently for a while, Xuanyuan Mo's expression did not change, but he asked in a somewhat sharp tone: "There was nothing unusual in the Eight Princes' Mansion that night, but the strange thing was that on the second day, the Eighth Prince and a maid beside the Nine Emperor Princesses left the Eight Princes' Mansion together. ”

"Oh? Is there such a thing? Xuanyuan Mo was slightly amazed, with a playful smile on his face, "The Eighth Prince has always been not close to women, and there is not even a woman in the mansion who sleeps, and now he actually sends a maid back to the house in person, which is rare." Do you know who this maid is? ”

"It's a maid next to the Nine Emperor Princesses, called Baoqing." The henchmen had already done a good job of investigating, so when Xuanyuan Mo asked, he could answer without thinking about it.

"Baoqing, why is it so familiar." Xuanyuan Mo thought about it carefully, and finally had some impressions, "It's her, that maid seems to know martial arts." ”

"Yes, she is the personal maid of the Nine Emperor Princesses, and she knows martial arts." The henchman nodded and replied in the affirmative.

"I know that these Eight Princes and the Nine Princes have a good relationship, and I have always wondered why these Eight Princes are doing so hard to help Murong Mansion, it turns out that it is because of a woman." A sneer appeared on Xuanyuan Mo's face, "But has he forgotten his identity?" Who doesn't like it, but actually takes a fancy to a maid. ”

"Master, the minion has heard about something, but I'm not sure." The henchman suddenly whispered to Xuanyuan Mo: "After the Eighth Emperor sent that maid back to the palace, he stayed in the Nine Emperors' Mansion for a long time, and then left unhappily and went directly to the palace. Listening to what the palace maid and eunuch in the palace of the imperial concubine said, the two didn't know what they said in the house, and the eighth prince was full of anger when he left. ”

"Could it be that the Imperial Concubine knows that the woman that the Eighth Prince likes is a maid?" Xuanyuan Mo said guessingly: "Although the Imperial Concubine and the Nine Emperors' Mansion are close, but let their son go to a maid, I don't think any person who is a concubine will agree." ”

"Master, if the Eighth Prince insists on doing it, it is not impossible." The henchman Ling said thoughtfully: "Although that maid is just a personal maid beside the Nine Emperor Princesses, the person who can be trusted by the Nine Emperor Princesses is by no means an ordinary person. ”

Xuanyuan Mo raised his hand to stop his henchman from continuing, he already had other ideas in his heart, thinking of the previous discussion with Chu Wanwan, he always suspected that Xuanyuan Jue wanted Murong Mansion to support him, if he married the maid next to Murong Xuanji, then the relationship with Murong Xuanji and the Nine Emperor Princes' Mansion and Murong Mansion would be one step closer.

"You go to the temple and ask the imperial concubine when she will come back." Xuanyuan Mo thought for a moment and explained to his henchmen. After seeing his henchmen leave, Xuanyuan Mo left the hall and came to the courtyard where Chu Wanwan lived.

"Why are you here?" Chu Wanwan was slightly surprised to see Xuanyuan Mo, since he came back from the paddock, Xuanyuan Mo has come here only a handful of times, looking at his expression, Chu Wanwan guessed that there must be something wrong with him coming this time.

"What are you doing?" Xuanyuan Mo walked to Chu Wanwan's side, saw some messy threads and fabrics in front of the table, asked curiously, picked up a piece of cloth casually, and saw the pattern made of other cloths on it, and felt a little novel.

"This is called patchwork in our Western Qi country. Even if you use some unwanted cloth to put it together and make various patterns. Chu Wanwan glanced at the maid beside her, and the maid immediately cleaned up the things on the table with understanding.

Seeing that there was no one else in the room, Xuanyuan Mo focused his eyes on Chu Wanwan, and said unintentionally: "You have been in Beiming Kingdom for some days, don't you plan to go back?" Don't you miss home, don't you miss your family? ”

"Are you pushing me away?" Chu Wanwan looked directly at Xuanyuan Mo and asked expressionlessly.

"Of course not, you are about to become my third princess, how can I let you go." Xuanyuan Mo explained with a smile, "It's just that I've been busy with other things, and I haven't talked to you very well, and I don't know what kind of person your family is in the Western Qi Kingdom?" ”

Chu Wanwan looked at Xuanyuan Mo with some puzzlement, I didn't know what his purpose was when he suddenly came to find him, and he also mentioned what the purpose of his family was, but Chu Wanwan, who had a heartfelt eye, said with a smile: "They are all family members who love me very much, and they are very happy after knowing that I am going to marry you." ”

Xuanyuan Mo smiled and nodded and said: "It's my rudeness, I want to marry you and I didn't go to Xiqi Kingdom to visit your family, tomorrow I will submit a letter to my father, I hope he can allow me to accompany you back to Xiqi Kingdom, I will ask your family to agree to our marriage." ”
