20. Suspicion

"My father has just resigned from His Majesty as a scholar of Wenyuan. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Xie Jinzhi's first sentence caused a sensation: "Your Majesty has agreed to be invited by my father." In this way, after becoming a father, he does not have to go to the court every day, but only once at the end of each month. ”

Li Shi was shocked: "Husband, how can this be? You are in the prime of life, how could Your Majesty do that? Is it because of the Han Palace? Your Majesty thinks we're standing with Han Wangfu? This...... What can I do? Let's not get married, okay? ”

"Nonsense!" Xie Jin said unhappily: "The Golden Butterfly is fateful, which Emperor Taizu has praised." Whoever dares to oppose it is disrespectful to Emperor Taizu! If he could refuse, the emperor would have refused a long time ago. ”

"But Your Majesty is obviously annoyed by our Xie Mansion! How does the Xie Mansion have the ability to fight against the royal family? Although Li has stayed in the Xie family for so many years, he has never had the experience of directly dealing with political affairs. In her heart, the emperor is the heaven that cannot be disobeyed.

"What if you're annoyed?" Xie Jinzhi had to patiently explain at this time: "The Xie family has been inherited for so many years, and it has its own set of survival skills. The royal family didn't dare to move the Xie family easily! ”

"Oh!" Li sat down in a daze, Xie Qinghua's face turned pale, and Xie Qingchen looked calm and motionless.

Xie Jinzhi looked at the boys and said, "What do you think? ”

"Your Majesty has agreed with my father's resignation!" Xie Qinghua said slowly: "Aunt is still the queen, can you ask the queen to help say a few words?" ”

Xie Jinzhi was noncommittal, his eyes sank, and he looked at Xie Qingchen.

Xie Qingchen said slowly: "My father stepped down from the post of Doctor Wenyuan, but he still retained the title of Duke Yongguo and the power of 200,000 troops of Yunzhou Wei. The Great Jin Kingdom had a total of 1 million troops, Xie accounted for 200,000, and Han Wangfu and Murong each accounted for 400,000. The Yunzhou Wei of the Xie family is the result of inheritance and accumulation over the generations, and the elite and brave are even more ordinary. Because it is stationed in Yunzhou City on the border of the Great Jin Kingdom and the Northern Zhou Dynasty all the year round, it can also be called the division of a hundred battles. Therefore, the weight of these 200,000 soldiers is not insignificant.

The title of Duke Yongguo of the Xie family was given by Emperor Taizu, and Yunzhou Wei was also raised by our Xie family at their own expense, and His Majesty has no right to deprive it. And Master Wen Yuan is in charge of etiquette classics and also participates in political affairs. Although the position is high, the real power is not large, and it is particularly easy to be convicted for various reasons, so it is better to be removed first than to be impeached. As long as the military power is still there, the foundation of our Xie family will still be there. Everything else can be figured out. ”

Xie Jinzhi nodded approvingly: "Not bad!" Yunzhou has always been the top priority, and with the elders of the family in charge, there will be no problems for a while. Everything else can be laid out slowly. ”

"So, what about Han Wangfu?" Li asked anxiously: "What about our marriage with Han Wangfu?" ”

"It's impossible to get out of the marriage, so let's keep it like this!" Xie Jinzhi smiled and said, "The relationship between Xie Mansion and Han Wangfu is still the same as before, just not far away!" ”

"Husband, do you mean that we don't help each other?" Li asked confusedly.

"That's how you understand!" Xie Jinzhi was a little impatient, he stood up and said to the Li family: "The queen wants to see her nieces, you can take them into the palace later!" ”

"Yes!" Li Shi hurriedly got up and responded. Xie Jinzhi called Xie Qingchen to the study again, leaving Xie Qinghua, whose face was not very good-looking, standing in place.

The girls hurriedly went back to the room to pack up their things, and Xie Qinghua slowly walked towards the residence with his little servant Mohan.

"Eldest Prince, you should be closer to Eldest Miss." Mo Han couldn't help but whisper a reminder: "After all, they are biological brothers and sisters, and the head of the family loves the eldest lady so much, as long as she says a few more words on the side, your identity will naturally be a little more secure." ”

"Identity? What an identity! Xie Qinghua said impatiently: "Is it possible, Xie Qingyao can take away the identity of my eldest son with a word?" ”

"However, the heir of the Xie Mansion, that is, the son of the Yongguo Mansion, has not yet been decided!" Mo Han muttered in a low voice, "The head of the family has been paying more and more attention to the second son recently, you have to be careful." ”

"What about the importance?" Xie Qinghua was touched in the sore spot, and suddenly his heart ached, and his eyes looked in the direction of Qingyao Pavilion.

Father suddenly valued Xie Qingchen, is it because Xie Qingyao is fanning the flames behind his back? Xie Qingyao and Xie Qingchen suddenly got close not long ago, how wrong they thought about this! Could it be that Xie Qingchen took Xie Qingyao's shortcut? It's really confusing, it's obviously my own half-sister, but I ******** to help others!

said that when Xie Qingyao returned to his residence, he found that there were two more people in front of the door.

These are two men with long figures, also inconspicuous appearances, also wearing inconspicuous gray clothes, one eyes as sharp as a sword, and the other eyebrows as deep as an abyss. In this gorgeous Qingyao Pavilion, they are like a pair of native chickens standing in the group of cranes, looking so out of place.

"Five-star samurai? Are you my father's secret guards for me? Xie Qingyao looked at these two and said.

"Exactly!" The two gray-clothed men bowed their heads in unison: "My subordinates have seen the Lord, please give me a name!" ”

"Nightowl, Nighthawk!" Seeing the contempt in the eyes of these two people, Xie Qingyao smiled disappreciatively and said, "Let's stay in Qingyao Pavilion first, I will give you orders when you need to do something." ”

"But...... Your subordinates can't be left with you. The man on the left, with a deep eyebrow, said.

"In that case, follow me if you want to!" Xie Qingyao didn't insist, and went out to change her clothes.

At this time, the two secret guards had already become invisible, and Xie Qingyao couldn't sense their location.

got into his own carriage, and in a rumbling sound, the carriage drove to the palace gate.

In front of the palace gate, there were already people waiting on the side.

"Yun Qian has seen his aunt!" It was Han Yunqian who was guarding the side, and when he saw Xie Qingyao and the others coming out, he stepped forward to salute.

"You're welcome!" The Li family had already seen Han Yunqian, and at this time, he couldn't help but take a closer look. I have to say that Han Yunqian's appearance and demeanor are excellent, and she should be happy to have such a talented and good-looking son-in-law. However, for some reason, she was not happy at all. But this place can't be made out of mood, so she had to respond in vain: "The prince also wants to enter the palace?" ”

"Exactly!" Han Yunqian said with a smile: "The mother concubine entered the palace to meet the queen, and Yun Qian was an entourage!" Saying this, his eyes unconsciously looked at Xie Qingyao.

"The son of the world has a heart!" Li said politely, but there was no smile in his eyes.

"Aunt has a good reputation, Yun Qian deserves it!"

Li Shi politely said a few words, Xie Qingshu and Xie Qingyao, two peers, greeted Han Yunqian as if nothing had happened, and a few people slowly walked into the depths of the Nine Profound Palace.

"The princess is also in the queen's palace at this time?" Li walked for a while and asked.

"Exactly!" Han Yunqian replied: "The mother concubine brought a few girls from the palace over, and several princesses in the palace were also in front of them. ”

When Xie Qingyao heard this, she smiled faintly, and it seemed that it would be lively again for a while.
