Chapter 503: A two-pronged approach
"You can go if you like." Bai Weiying threw Si Huazhen a stinky face, and then blasted Si Huazhen and Liufeng out of the room together.
Liufeng looked at the appearance of his prince being driven out and smiling, and the expression on his face was even more like seeing a ghost, what did Si Huazhen experience?
Fortunately, after a while, Si Huazhen returned to his usual calm and unsmiling posture, looking like an unapproachable kaolin flower, but the flowing wind that witnessed all these changes was messy in the wind, and it was not until Si Huazhen turned around and urged the flowing wind with a trace of impatience that he woke up from his chaotic thoughts and followed quickly.
At this time in the palace, the emperor looked at Si Yuanqiong and Si Helin who were kneeling in front of him, but he was angry, and reprimanded coldly: "The two of you, one is my son and the other is my own brother, why are you all talking to Si Huazhen now?" Could it be that you all feel that I am old and unworthy of this throne? ”
Not only Si Yuanqiong and Si Helin, but what the emperor minded more was what Li Yanran said to him before he died, what made him dare to be unfavorable to Si Huazhen and Bai Weiying, she would not let him go.
Originally, the emperor was immersed in the grief of Li Yanran's sudden death, but now that he has calmed down, he has some other thoughts, no matter how stupid the emperor is, in the final analysis, he is the king of a country, and the person who can sit in this position will not be really stupid.
Li Yanran desperately set up an invisible confinement for the emperor, reminding the emperor all the time that if the emperor wanted to do something to Si Huazhen, it would be in vain to ignore the wishes of the dead Li Yanran, and if such a big hat was buttoned down, the emperor would naturally feel uncomfortable.
And more importantly, although the emperor really loves Li Yanran, he is also greedy for life and afraid of death, this ghost and god theory must not be believed, if he really did something unfavorable to Si Huazhen, Li Yanran knew about it, and then attracted something unclean, it would be bad.
Thinking like this, the emperor's face became even more ugly, and his idea was to find a suitable time to drive Si Huazhen back to the fiefdom, out of sight and out of mind, but now Si Yuanqiong and Si Helin are singing and harmonizing, directly forcing the emperor to the cusp.
If the emperor promised, he would feel depressed in his heart, he promised not to take the initiative to harm Si Huazhen, but this does not mean that he will watch Si Huazhen make contributions and have a deeper foundation.
But if it is not promised, the floods in the south of the Yangtze River are menacing, and I am afraid that no one in the court can compare to Si Huazhen, and the emperor thinks about the relationship and the stakes, and he is even more angry.
"Father's forgiveness." Si Helin said loudly according to what Si Yuanqiong taught him early in the morning: "This natural disaster, if the imperial court does nothing, it will inevitably cause the people's hearts to fluctuate, and then I am afraid that it will cause chaos. ”
When the emperor heard this, his expression of extreme displeasure was a little dark, but there was still a faint anger hovering in the corner of his eyes, "You are just a twelve-year-old boy, how can you fight the scheming Si Huazhen, don't be eaten by others when the time comes, you don't know anything!" ”
The emperor's words sounded like he was reprimanding Si Helin, but he only needed to think about it carefully to be able to show that the emperor had already wavered about this decision.
Si Yuanqiong seized the opportunity, raised her eyes and looked at the emperor's cloudy eyes, as if with silent demagogy, and said step by step: "Brother Chen's brother also thinks like this, Your Majesty, Brother Chen'er and Lin'er are your dearest people, whenever you encounter something, you will inevitably put Your Majesty first, Your Majesty should focus on the overall situation, and now you have sent someone to summon King Jingping, but don't let him detect any clues." ”
Hearing Si Yuanqiong mention the so-called summons, the emperor's already improved face became ugly again, "Do you still have the face to say?" Taking advantage of my distraction, he actually pinched his head and tail, passed the oracle to Fang Hai's old thing, and kept saying that there was no joke about you, I see, you are deliberately playing tricks on me. ”
For some reason, today's emperor is particularly difficult, Si Yuanqiong persuaded him for a long time, and actually went back to his original position.
Si Yuanqiong lowered her eyes, hiding the impatience and disgust in her eyes, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, natural disasters and blessings are unpredictable, how can you be sure that King Jingping can survive the punishment from God unharmed?" ”
The emperor was about to say something, and a sound sounded outside the imperial study, and the emperor's words were blocked in his throat.
Si Huazhen walked into the hall and saluted the emperor, and the emperor called out lightly, "Get up", and then said: "Brother Zhen, do you know what I passed you into the palace for?" ”
Si Huazhen arched his hand with kindness, and said with a respectful look on his face that did not make any mistakes: "Weichen knows that it is for the matter of the floods in the south of the Yangtze River, and Weichen is willing to take the order to go to the disaster relief." ”
Seeing that Si Huazhen agreed so happily, the emperor only felt that the unhappiness in his heart was even stronger, but Jun Wu joked, coupled with what Si Yuanqiong said just now, it really touched the emperor's heart.
Since he can't take the initiative to harm Si Huazhen, then this natural disaster took Si Huazhen's life, Li Yanran always can't blame him, right?
The emperor skillfully exploited a loophole, and then exhaled a breath of turbidity, trying to control the ups and downs of his emotions: "In this case, then I will appoint you as the minister of the Qincha, and Lin'er will walk with you, and I hope that you two will cooperate sincerely and return to Beijing victoriously as soon as possible." ”
Si Helin and Si Huazhen said in unison: "Weichen, Erchen obeys the order." ”
The emperor finalized the disaster relief at a very fast speed, and then did not stay in Si Huazhen more, and directly found a reason that was not good, and sent Si Huazhen out of the imperial study.
Si Huazhen didn't want to be a snake with the emperor in the imperial study, he held the bright yellow holy decree in his hand, and the curvature of his mouth rose.
This trip to Jiangnan can not only protect the people from the flood, but also investigate the truth of the events with Bai Weiying, which can be described as a two-pronged approach.
The only fly in the ointment is that Si Helin also has to go with him, and if he wants to find Bai Weiying unknowingly, I am afraid it will be a little difficult.
Looking at the scene in Fang Cai's imperial study, Si Huazhen also knew that most of the things this time were Si Yuanqiong's ghost behind his back, and what the specific idea was was naturally Sima Zhao's heart, and it was obvious that it was revealed.
But this time, Si Huazhen wanted to thank Si Yuanqiong for his help, but as for Si Helin, Si Huazhen didn't see him as a threat.
