Chapter 14: Suspicion
"Father, are you scared?" In the end, it was Xuanyuan Hao who broke the emperor's suspicions, and Xuanyuan Hao got up and stood beside Yan Xiruo, his face full of concern.
Yan Xiruo tilted his head and glanced at him, but did not speak.
"I'm fine, it's still your filial piety, and you still know how to care about me." The emperor retracted his gaze, somewhat relieved that Xuanyuan Hao cared about him.
"Father, don't praise your son, your son believes that the prince also cares about his father, but it's just a little sudden, scared, right?" As he spoke, he looked at the prince with concern, who had obviously not returned to his senses.
Prince Xuanyuan Ye sat there, seemingly really frightened, but only Xuanyuan Ye himself knew that he was not frightened by the runaway horse, but by the girl in front of him, the seventh lady of the Yanfu, Xuanyuan Ye couldn't figure out how she suddenly appeared in front of her father at that time, that speed is not comparable to ordinary people, and the Phantom family suddenly mentioned by the envoy of Beiyan made him even more puzzled, so that he fell into his own thoughts and even his father and emperor couldn't care.
At this time, when I heard the third brother suddenly mention himself, I realized that I was really a little derelict in my duty, and hurriedly stood up: "Father, son, ...... minister"
"Okay, I know you have a heart, and you were scared, I don't blame you." In the end, it is his most beloved son, and compared to others, the prince undoubtedly takes advantage of this point.
"You saved me today, but what reward do you want?" The emperor shifted his gaze from Yan Xiruo, who was still standing in front of him, and asked.
He is very grateful to the people who have helped him, he is not a ruthless emperor, he is just a little suspicious.
Yan Xiruo smiled respectfully, bowed, and then slowly spoke: "The courtiers don't have what they want for the time being, but can the courtiers dare to ask the emperor to agree to the courtiers' request." Yan Xiruo raised his head slightly and looked at the emperor's frowning brows, and then said, "The courtier's request will not embarrass Your Majesty." And Your Majesty will be able to do it. ”
The emperor frowned and thought for a while, and asked, "Tell me, what are your requirements?" ”
"The courtiers can't say it for the time being, but can you ask Your Majesty to agree to the courtiers first." She can't say it now, because the effect she wants hasn't gotten yet.
"Okay, I promise you, as long as I do it, I will agree." The emperor considered the stakes of this, and nodded and agreed, after all, this was in front of the civil and military officials, if he didn't agree, wouldn't it be a matter of words.
"Then the courtiers thanked Your Majesty first." Yan Xiruo made a big salute, and then slowly retreated to Mrs. Yan's side. smiled at the worried eyes of the old lady and comforted her.
"Presumably, all of you Aiqing were also frightened today, so let's disperse first." Emperor Xuanyuan rubbed his forehead, which was a little painful, it was originally a good party, but since it was mixed up by a crazy horse, it was really unexpected.
"The ministers thanked Your Majesty, and the ministers retired first." The ministers got up and left one by one, and after a while, only the crown prince and the princes were left in the entire hall, as well as the people of the Yan Mansion.
Emperor Xuanyuan glanced at the Yanfu people who were about to leave, and frowned slightly, the Yan Xiruo who turned around and walked at the end made him suddenly a little interested, I don't know if it was because the phantom family in the mouth of the Beiyan envoy made him interested, or if the girl was interested in communicating with animals.
He suddenly looked forward to what kind of surprise this girl would bring them in the future.
If she is really a phantom family, then whether the folk rumors are also true, if this girl can really decide the future direction of his country, then who will get him, his princes, or others.
"Father, but you have something on your mind?" The crown prince has always been a delicate person, just a subtle expression, he can see what others are thinking, which is why the emperor has always been very reassuring to him.
Emperor Xuanyuan glanced at the crown prince, this son is always the most attentive and the most intimate: "Ye'er, what do you think of this seventh lady of Yanfu?" ”
His question made Xuanyuan Ye slightly stunned, and he didn't know the meaning of his father's words for a while: "Erchen doesn't understand what his father means. ”
"I'm asking you, what kind of person do you think this Yanxi is?" Emperor Xuanyuan asked again patiently.
Xuanyuan Ye then understood, it seems that his father had listened to the words of the Beiyan envoy just now, and must have known the folk rumors: "Miss Yanqi is a very good girl, even if she has not returned to the imperial capital for ten years, but the characteristics of her belonging to the Yanfu people have not changed at all." ”
"But I heard that Miss Yan Qi ten years ago was a rude and arrogant person, and she almost killed Xiaoli back then? Is there such a thing? "After all, Emperor Xuanyuan is also in his sixties, even if his body looks very tough, but his memory is declining day by day, not to mention this incident ten years ago, although Yan Xiruo almost killed his most painful daughter at that time, but in the end it was his own daughter who was wrong, plus the intercession of the Yan family, and the queen's non-accountability, he didn't pay much attention to it, and even when he saw Yan Xiruo again, he didn't think about it. I suddenly mentioned it today, but I suddenly remembered it, and I was a little surprised, what has happened to the seventh lady of this Yanfu in the past ten years, and how her temperament is completely different from what he has heard of.
Xuanyuan Ye didn't seem to expect that Emperor Xuanyuan would turn up this past, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.
"Father, the son thinks that this person will become, maybe it was because of Xiaoli's incident that Miss Yan Qi realized that she was afraid, so she changed her temperament and said that it is not necessarily, right?" The one who spoke was Xuanyuan Hao, who had been standing by Xuanyuan Ye's side, and Xuanyuan Hao finally took over the conversation with a good-looking smile: "Erchen heard that the reason why Miss Yanqi was sent away back then was because of Xiaoli's matter, so Erchen thinks that it is not a strange thing that Miss Yanqi will change her temperament." ”
Emperor Xuanyuan nodded in agreement: "Maybe." After thinking about it, he looked at Xuanyuan Hao and Xuanyuan Ye again and asked, "Then do you believe that she is a phantom family?" ”
Maybe this is what Emperor Xuanyuan wants to ask in the end.
"Erchen doesn't know, and he doesn't dare to guess at will." Xuanyuan Ye bowed his head respectfully, his heart was also full of doubts, it seemed that he was going to Yanfu later.
"Erchen thinks that no matter whether Miss Yan Qi is a phantom family or not, she will not be a threat to Da Liang, if she is a phantom family, it will also be a benefit to my Da Liang, if she is not, then it is very good." Xuanyuan Hao is more able to see things than Xuanyuan Ye, and it is no wonder that Emperor Xuanyuan values him so much.
"That's right, okay, you all stand down, I'm a little tired." Waving his hand, he was indeed a little tired, and the feeling of being frightened by Crazy Horse just now suddenly surged to his whole body at this moment, making him soften for a while.
"The retainers retired." Xuanyuan Ye turned around and left after Xuanyuan Hao, Emperor Xuanyuan's somewhat shaky body he really saw it, and wanted to go up to help him, but he turned away in the eyes he saw.
After all, he is the emperor of Daliang, and he doesn't want people to see his vulnerable side at any time.
On the carriage of Yanfu on the other side, Prime Minister Yan frowned and asked Yan Xiruo puzzled: "What are you doing today?" ”
Yan Xiruo looked at him and smiled: "Uncle, I said that paper can't keep the fire, no matter how well I hide it today, there will be a day when it will be discovered, rather than waiting until someone finds it one day, it is better for me to take the initiative to let them find out." ”
"Then why didn't you admit it when they asked?" The frowns became tighter and tighter, and they were not clear about Yan Xiruo's approach at all.
"If I admit it in front of the envoy of Beiyan, won't I indirectly tell others that I can control the fate of this world, isn't it just provoking a war? And I obviously don't have the ability to control the fate of the world, and I can't provoke a war, and those rumors against Yu Huan's family are just rumors. Yan Xiruo was still smiling, laughing very lightly, but very unreal.
"Okay, don't ask again, Xiruo is also a little tired." Prime Minister Yan wanted to ask something, but he couldn't ask under the old lady's stop, so he had to give up.
In fact, he doesn't need to ask anything, Yan Xiruo may still be very young, but what she does will definitely have her considerations, they just need to be her backing, and the rest, they all believe that this girl thinks very clearly.
