Chapter 235: Cooperation
"Rebellion?" A chill flashed in Qi Yuan's eyes.
In today's court, everyone is used for their own purposes, but they have hidden evil intentions, everyone has party henchmen, colludes with each other, and officials protect each other.
All of this is now reserved for Huang Ama to himself, plus a sixth elder brother, it is really enough for Qi Yuan to have a headache.
"Could it be that he also has a counter-intention?" Qi Yuan touched the rough teacup while observing the old man's movements.
"Not necessarily." The old man just smiled and shook his head, "In these years, who is right, although we are nominally doing things for the emperor, but in fact, the emperor needs us to do those private actions on the one hand, and on the other hand, he is unwilling to admit our existence." ”
"The emperor is cautious, how can he allow others to offend? If it is known to the people of the world, saying that the emperor does not govern state affairs well, and has to rely on an unsightly organization to manage the affairs of the harem, and only thinks about deceit every day, what will they think? ”
Qi Yuan nodded thoughtfully, Huang Ama has always felt that women are a disaster and a disaster that hinders the governance of the country, but in fact, one of the reasons why he created this organization is that he will not let anyone disturb the order of the imperial city.
And after the death of his mother, Concubine Shu took power, and her various behaviors are also obvious to all, but Qi Yuan is just a prince, and Huang Ama has also been ill for a long time, and she is sick in bed, so there must be no way to take her.
"So in fact, the people in the twelve hours are a little dissatisfied with the emperor?" Qi Yuan didn't think it was anything, if he changed himself, he would be in a state of disgrace for a long time, and he was afraid that he would not be much better than them.
"The old slave is just guessing." Seeing Qi Yuan's gloomy face, the old man comforted. "Besides, the third child is low-key and has never fought with others, and during the rebellion of Dong Yu in Shuzhou, he did not have the slightest movement, at least, within the scope I know, he does not seem to know and is unwilling to get involved in these things, and he has already returned to the mountains and forests."
"Dong Yu?" Qi Yuan frowned, although this matter is known to women and children, few people know that Dong Yu did it, although Qi Yuan and the emperor are just guesses, besides, the spy sent by the sixth elder brother obviously wants to blame Dong Yu for the matter.
"How do you know it's him?"
"That's what was said inside and outside the court." The old man smiled slyly, "However, in my opinion, this is the news released by the sixth elder brother, although Dong Yu and the sixth elder brother cooperated, it didn't seem to be so pleasant." Moreover, both of them have their own ghosts, and neither of them will accept the other. ”
"It seems that the old gentleman has not done much investigation." Qi Yuan quietly moved the teacup elsewhere, lest he would get into a fight and splash his clothes.
"Huh." All this was naturally seen by the old gentleman, "It seems that the prince still doesn't trust me very much." ”
"I don't trust anyone casually, and the old gentleman is not surprised."
Yes, Xue Tan, who was still fighting side by side with him just a while ago, now he doesn't know where to go, and he is even thinking about taking Yin Qingqi away, how can he believe it?
Qi Yuan smiled bitterly, he deserved to be the prince, and he really failed, he originally thought that he could subdue everyone after taking over, but now it seems that it is just wishful thinking.
"The old gentleman has been discovered by me now, and I think the sixth elder brother has naturally noticed it."
In the past few days, the old man has frequently appeared in Jinghong Building, I am afraid that he has long been noticed by the eyeliner of the sixth elder brother, and it is difficult to hide such a conspicuous target.
"What are you going to do now? Do you run away, or do you stay in the palace and use it for me? ”
"Huh." The old man's expression changed from cunning to serious, "Prince, do I still have a choice at this time?" ”
Qingmu Palace.
A dark shadow flashed and scurried up the wall.
A few little maids were chatting in the garden, and they didn't see Yin Qingqi's shadow.
"What can I do?" The men in black waited anxiously, but several of them didn't seem to show signs of leaving.
"There it is." The man in black had a plan, picked up a tile casually, waved his arm into the distance, and threw it with a "whoosh" with all his might.
"Smack." There was a crisp sound of the tiles hitting the wall.
"What's wrong?"
"I don't know, let's take a look."
A few little maidens went in groups, poked their heads out, and looked at the broken and crisp tiles in the corners.
"What's going on?"
"Isn't it like the wall is going to fall?"
"It's so unstrong, what if you hit the little master one day?"
"It's better to inform my aunts and call someone to fix it quickly."
……
What the maids didn't notice was that a black-clothed man quietly sneaked into Yin Qingqi's boudoir along the trunks of several trees.
Yin Qingqi was reading and writing, and didn't notice the figure coming in.
The door squeaked shut, and the man in black froze in place.
This sucks!
"Who's there?" Yin Qingqi poked his head out of the house and vigilantly picked up a sword beside him.
This sword was left here by Qi Yuan for her self-defense.
"Who is it? If I don't speak, I'll be called again. ”
"Shh The man in black shook his head helplessly and turned around, "If you have a quiet voice, it will be difficult to run away if you are discovered in a while." ”
"Run? Do you think what kind of place is the inner courtyard of the deep palace, you can come when you want, and you can leave when you want? Yin Qingqi frowned, looked coldly at the man in black in front of him, and the sword light was cold, and it was already against the neck of the man in black.
"Okay, be careful, don't really cut me."
The man in black dodged in panic, and then took off the mask on his face.
"It's me."
"Xue Tan?" Yin Qingqi was a little surprised, "Why are you here?" ”
"Why can't I come." Xue Tan sat down and poured himself a cup of tea, not treating himself as an outsider at all.
"Besides, you haven't married Qi Yuan yet, theoretically, we can still compete fairly."
"Xue Tan, don't make trouble." Yin Qingqi shook her head helplessly, "If it is discovered by Qi Yuan, it is difficult for us to explain." ”
"Explain? Why explain? Xue Tan's eyes were cold, he put down the teacup, and became serious.
"Qingqi, you are a Qi Yuan, if you really love him, why don't you marry him earlier?"
"I haven't figured it out yet." Yin Qingqi lowered his head, it wasn't that he hadn't thought about it, maybe he just wanted to accept the reality and didn't want to do those useless battles anymore.
"Didn't expect it? Okay, I'll give you time to think, one day won't work, two days, two days won't work three days, anyway, you still have more than half a month, Yin Qingqi, let me tell you, if you make a choice again this time, the rest of your life will only be spent in regret. ”
Remorse? Isn't it enough that I regret it now? Yin Qingqi didn't know why she had to obey her father's entry into the palace, and finally ended up like this.
I'm already like this, and if I regret it, where can I regret it?
"Xue Tan, let's go."
After being silent for a moment, Yin Qingqi turned around and said coldly with his back to Xue Tan.
