Yan Xiye's voice was warm and his tone was very gentle, but his eyes were full of determination.

The Empress Dowager was slightly stunned, but soon regained her composure, shook her head lightly, and no longer insisted.

It was she who was confused, and she thought that Ye'er in front of her was the child who needed to grow up in her shadow. Xing Fu asked to see the crown prince, and Xin Zi asked for help from him, if in the end, he couldn't even pass the simple first hurdle of finding out the truth, how would he gain a foothold in the palace in the future, let alone rule the entire country.

It's time to let go. This is the experience of the prince, and it is even more reassuring to himself. Knowing that her grandson has grown up and can be on her own, if she goes one day, she will also have an explanation for the first emperor.

Thinking of this, the Empress Dowager was also relieved, she nodded in agreement, and decided not to ask about this matter anymore.

The crown prince and the imperial grandmother said goodbye, and took Xing Fu out of the side hall.

"I have written down this matter, and I will do my best to investigate it in the past two days, and once it is implemented, I will definitely do my best to give Xin Zi an explanation." Out of the Sacred Heart Temple, Yan Xiye gave Xing Fu such a promise, and asked, "Xin Zike told you what she plans to do next?" ”

Xing Fu did not hide it: "Go to Gaoxiang Town and find Zuo Qiyang." ”

Yan Xiye nodded, agreed with this approach, and said, "I'll transfer a few people to leave with you, and they will escort Xin Zi to Gaoxiang." ”

Xing Fu believed that Li Yuanzhuben and the three of them were enough to protect Xin Zi and find Zuo Qiyang smoothly, but since the prince proposed it, it was a good intention, so naturally there was no reason to refuse. Maybe at this time, he was sandwiched between Xin Zi and his father, and the balance in his heart was still wavering, and it was also the intention of letting people go to Xin Zi's side to monitor? But everything is not absolute, with the prince's people by his side, the journey will definitely be much smoother, that is, when he arrives in Gaoxiang Town, if Zuo Qiyang can't take care of Xin Zi because of his loss of power, with the support of the people on duty in the palace, the local officials must not dare to make a mistake.

As for whether these eyeliners will make Xin Zi unable to move freely...... Then you can only take one step at a time, and then you will see the move.

Xing Fu thought to himself, and respectfully thanked the prince for his grace.

After sending Xing Fu away, Yan Xiye called Wang Qing and asked him: "The emperor sent Zuo Qiyang, who is making up for his lack now?" ”

Wang Qing is the person next to the prince, the emperor deliberately concealed the West Palace, and naturally he was kept in the dark with Wang Qing, at this time, hearing the prince say this, he couldn't help sweating on his forehead, but he didn't dare to have any complaints, so he only replied with a smile cautiously: "Your Highness, the slave is not very clear...... The minion will go find someone to check......" and he was about to turn around and go down.

Yan Xiye stopped him.

At this time, he went directly to find out who replaced Zuo Qiyang's position, which was tantamount to telling the world that he knew about Zuo Qiyang's transfer, and the emperor was not a fool, how could he not see the clue like this.

Wang Qing didn't dare to say anything more, so he could only stand there respectfully, waiting for orders.

Yan Xiye pondered for a while, and then asked, "Do you know who often goes to Funing Hall recently?" ”

Funing Hall is the emperor's bedroom, and the ministers will not go, so what the prince is asking at this time is the person who is regarded by the emperor as a confidant or intends to reuse.

Wang Qing carefully searched for what he had seen and heard these days, and a figure appeared in his mind.

"I only heard that the guard named Ruipeng has been walking around the Funing Hall very diligently recently...... The minion will go to find someone to check on him," Wang Qing said, found his direction again, and mustered up his strength to go out again.

Yan Xiye waved his hand a little impatiently, signaling him to calm down, Wang Qing held his breath and condensed, and didn't dare to say anything more on his own, Yan Xiye groaned.

"Ruipeng? The young man from Dongyuan who followed Zuo Qiyang before? ”

Yan Xiye tried hard to recall, looking like a young man, completely forgetting that he was just a thirteen-year-old boy.

Wang Qing naturally didn't poke it, and replied respectfully, "Exactly".

Yan Xiye's brows stretched slightly, and he finally saw a little direction in the dense fog, and said anxiously: "Go and call Zhao Huan to me." ”

Wang Qing bowed respectfully and retreated, and came back after a cup of tea, with a tall guard in his twenties behind him - it was the prince's henchman Zhao Huan.

Zhao Huan clasped his sleeves with both hands, knelt down and saluted Yan Xiye.

Yan Xiye shouted at him and asked, "There is a guard by Zuo Qiyang's side, named Ruipeng, do you recognize him?" ”

Zhao Huan replied with a "recognize" and said no more.

Yan Xiye nodded and said calmly: "Bring him to me," and said again, "Remember, don't be seen by anyone." ”

Zhao Huan's heart was shocked, and his stomach was full of confusion, but he knew that his identity did not allow him to ask questions, so he didn't say a word, saluted Yan Xiye respectfully, and retreated.

Yan Xiye nodded with satisfaction when he saw this, what he needed was someone like Zhao Huan who was heartfelt enough, not extremely smart, but who clearly knew his identity and how to act.

He has such people around him, but they are far from enough.

He began to go through the people under his mind one by one, only to find that now when it came to employing people, he was almost in a situation where no one was available.

Whether the news brought by Xing Fu this time was a false alarm or the beginning of another path he was about to go, he had to plan early.

He thought of Zuo Qiyang, he had only been in the palace for a few years, but he seemed to be at home left and right...... Whether it really allowed him to find his own place or he deliberately created such an illusion, this person's ability should not be underestimated, maybe he can learn from one or two.

As soon as Zhao Huan went, there was no news for a day, but the next morning, Yan Xiye had breakfast and was about to go to the prince and concubine as usual, when a eunuch came to Zhao Huan to ask to see him.

To Yan Xiye's surprise, Zhao Huan actually led Ruipeng in directly, and the guards who were not escorted behind him, and even went to see Na Ruipeng again, looking calm, without the slightest sign of being forced.

Yan Xiye immediately became suspicious, and still asked Ruipeng in a deep voice: "You are now on an errand in front of my father?" ”

Ruipeng saluted respectfully, and there was no anxiety or uneasiness between his eyebrows, but a sense of relief.

Yan Xiye was even more sure of his judgment, where was this Ruipeng used by his father to replace Zuo Qiyang's henchman, and it was Zuo Qiyang's eyeliner that Zuo Qiyang in turn placed beside his father.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing, thinking that if his father knew about it, with his good-looking temperament, he didn't know how he would be angry, Zuo Qiyang was really bold, he was already difficult to protect, and he dared to play with fire like this. (To be continued.) )
