In Satsuki's concept, the emperor and queen are the most honorable people in the world.

Since she entered the palace, her cognition has been completely broken.

Let's not talk about the emperor, let's just say that the queen, although in front of everyone, she looks like a mother, but in private she is a child's temper, all her thoughts are written on her face, and she can't say clearly, whether this is good or bad.

The emperor is even stranger.

In front of the civil and military officials, he is still holding a shelf, in front of the queen, a proper sycophant, whatever the queen says, that is, there is no objection at all.

In the inner hall, the emperor had already seen the queen's bandaged fingers, his heart tightened, and his face sank, "Wan'er, you shouldn't fiddle with these things, it's not suitable for you." ”

Xue Yuwan sighed, "Our son is still outside, how can you let me not worry?" ”

The two sentences that seem to be unrelated just point out the key to the matter.

She was injured, not because of embroidery, but because she put her mind on her son.

Li Xuan also sighed, he gently put the queen's palm into his palm, "His temperament, if he doesn't find out, he won't come back." ”

The two of them sighed for a long time, not at all like the supreme ruler in the world, but like a pair of ordinary parents, worried about their son's future.

Xue Yuwan asked cautiously, "Then you say, when will my son come back?" ”

Li Xuan's eyes flashed, and he replied with some uncertainty, "The appointed time is almost up, I want to ......"

He didn't finish his words, but Xue Yuwan's heart jumped, listening to this meaning, his son's errand this time was not going well!

She couldn't help but be angry, picked up her fist and smashed it on Li Xuan's chest, "Look at it, what do I say, I'll just say, don't want An'er to inherit this broken prince, you don't listen, you can't go back to your home now, and you still wander outside all day, something happens, can you afford it?" ”

As soon as the emperor heard this, his head began to hurt again.

It's like this every time, the queen just doesn't want their children to be the crown prince.

However, who could be more suitable than An'er?

His mother is the most noble woman in the world, which no one can match.

Besides, his brothers are either too young, or they are submissive and unworthy of the task. Only An'er's character, ability, and appearance are all dragons and phoenixes among people.

Even if he doesn't agree, I'm afraid that the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty will be on the table one after another, not to mention those trembling concubines, who have princes in everything, from the same age as An'er to the infants, all of them have refused the way to the prince.

It's as if the position of the crown prince is not a good thing, but like a hot potato.

"Wan'er, why did you say this again? I also have no choice, whoever lets An'er have such an excellent mother as you, he will inevitably embark on this most noble path. ”

Xue Yuwan's cheeks turned red, turned her head, and no longer looked at Li Xuan's face, Li Xuan saw that her face was as bright as a peach blossom, and secretly rejoiced that she had escaped again, but she was still muttering to herself in her heart, An'er, you have to come back soon, I am about to be nagged to death by your mother.

......

Xue Zimu let out a big sneeze.

Zhou Cheng stood beside him obediently, his lips tightly pursed into a straight line, as if he was fighting against something.

Xue Zimu hooked his index finger, and Zhou Cheng stepped forward with a little weakness, "Childe, what do you command?" ”

Xue Zimu grabbed Zhou Cheng's ears and shouted vigorously, "Are you embarrassed to ask me, looking at you like this, things are messed up again?" ”

Zhou Cheng's legs trembled, and he almost didn't kneel, but in Xue Zimu's terrifying eyes, he straightened his bent legs back again, "Childe, don't scare the villain, I really have to investigate carefully, but there is no news, saying that everyone is dead." ”

Zhou Cheng finished saying everything that should be said, and lowered his eyes as if he had collapsed.

After so many years of cases, he has worn out his mouth, and he can only see a few strokes on the file of Dali Temple, saying that the big families of the year were all wiped out, and no one survived.

Xue Zimu frowned, could it be that he was thinking wrong?

He paced back and forth in the room, almost about to circumvent Zhou Chengmeng, before he spoke, "No, I remember that this Dali Siqing is also a close friend of King Nanyang, he may be able to know useful information, you continue to check it for me, it's best to get useful clues from his mouth." ”

This time, Zhou Cheng didn't blink, and knelt directly on the ground, "Childe, I really don't dare to deal with this iron-faced and selfless Hades, the thing he recognizes must be that oil and salt don't enter, even if I go, it's useless, as soon as his old man is unhappy, he will lock me up, Childe, have pity on me......"

Xue Zimu looked at him lightly and muttered softly, "Pity you? ”

Zhou Cheng's body couldn't help but tremble, how did he feel that the prince's eyes were gloomy?

He swallowed hard before nodding cautiously.

Xue Zimu's long figure, like a haze, hung over Zhou Cheng's head, as if he didn't intend to give him a chance to be lazy, "I want to pity you, but I have a question I want to ask you." ”

The more respectful Xue Zimu's tone was, the more frightened Zhou Cheng felt, as if an invisible net was rushing towards him, unable to shake off or escape.

Still, his fears came true.

"Zhou Cheng, are you really afraid of him, or are you afraid of causing trouble for your father?"

Zhou Cheng's eyes widened suddenly, how could the prince know?

He scratched the back of his head helplessly, and replied a little dejectedly, "Prince, you know my identity, don't embarrass me anymore, it's not that you don't know my father's temper, even if I go, he will only blast me out!" ”

A smile suddenly appeared on the corner of Xue Zimu's mouth, but with a cool breath, Zhou Cheng's heart jumped slightly, but he couldn't say why, "Of course I didn't let you sneak in, I just let you go in generously, with the prince's handwriting, I want to investigate a small case, it shouldn't be difficult." ”

Zhou Cheng swallowed his saliva vigorously, and added cautiously, "Prince, are you planning to reveal your identity?" ”

Xue Zimu smiled and slapped Zhou Cheng's head hard, "Who said I was going to let him know my identity?" You can just take the oracle, but there is no need for your father to know my identity, and he has never seen the real prince. ”

Zhou Cheng nodded as if he didn't understand and ran away.

......

For several days, the wind and waves were calm.

Wan Zibing felt that something was wrong.

What's wrong?

It's Ouyang Yi!

She seems to have not seen him in a long time, and according to what she knows about him, he should be by her side from time to time, but.... No, not even a ghost.

Wan Zibing's heart had a ball of fire that went straight to the top of his head, so he gave up?

She hurriedly picked up a cup of tea and was about to put it to her lips, but was stopped by a plain hand.

The phantom snatched the teacup from Wan Zibing's hand, and then reminded faintly, "Sister, there is no water in this cup, are you drinking air?" ”

Wan Zibing was reminded by the phantom, and then looked at the empty cup, a burst of chagrin flashed in his heart, but he replied calmly on his face, "No... I just saw the chic shape of this tea cup, and I came to play with it. ”

Can such an explanation also be?

The phantom cleared his throat, his pure eyes revealing a certain hint of banter, "Sister, you look lost your soul today, but it's for ......"

"I didn't..."

The phantom changed to a puzzled expression, "Sister, I haven't finished my words yet, do you want to know what I said?" ”

Wan Zibing realized that the phantom, the little girl, was digging a trap for herself, and she retorted hatefully, "Xiaoying, have you been with me for a long time, have you forgotten your sister's temper?" ”

The phantom stuck out his little tongue mischievously and shook his head boldly, "I didn't, sister, when are we going to go back?" ”

Wan Zibing became silent again.

Actually, she originally planned to leave in the next few days, but she didn't see Ouyang Yi, her heart was really relieved, but she couldn't be cheeky to find him, and her heart was like hundreds of drums and hammers beating at the same time.

Seeing that Wan Zibing didn't speak, the phantom put on a coquettish smile, like a child, pulling Wan Zibing's sleeve and not wanting to let go, "Sister, I think it's fun here, there is still some time until the end of the month, let's play for a few more days, okay?" ”

Wan Zibing only thought naughty again when the phantom was very doting, "You, how old are you, you know how to play!" ”

The phantom's voice remained unchanged, shaking Wan Zibing's arm but secretly stopped, "Sister, are you agreeing?" ”

"If I don't agree, you won't torture me to death?"

"Sister, what you said is so scary, I didn't think about it that way..."

"It's okay if you don't think so, let's go back quickly, I still want to make money..."

“......”

While laughing, Wan Zibing and Phantom set their schedule, they planned to play in this town for a few more days, at this time, a fiery red shadow rushed in and shouted out of breath, "Sister, something happened to that kid!" ”

Wan Zibing frowned, "Red Shadow, you make things clearer, what kid?" ”

Qian Hongying breathed a sigh of relief, and then said slowly, "Who else could it be, of course it was that Shao Gongzi, I don't know what kind of crazy he smoked, and he fought with people." ”

Wan Zibing looked at Qian Hongying with a puzzled face, it stands to reason that this little thing is not worth her panicking.
