In the empress's gaze, Zhou An, who was a little weak-hearted, could only explain honestly.

Bai Xiaokui, she ...... was seriously injured and unconscious during the mission, so the minister asked Master Miaoyan to go south and take Bai Xiaokui back to the capital......" After Zhou An finished speaking, he hurriedly pulled a few mouthfuls of food, looking so hungry, tired and pitiful.

"You asked Master Miaoyan to pick up Bai Xiaokui? Master Miaoyan went? "The empress felt incredible, both points were incredible, one was that Zhou An actually asked Master Miao Yan to summon him, and the other was that Zhou An actually asked Master Miao Yan to pick up Bai Xiaokui.

You asked the world's No. 1 martial arts master to pick up your concubine?!

Is Bai Xiaokui so important?!

You stinky shameless!

"The minister promised Master Miaoyan something...... Zhou An whispered.

"Huh!" The empress sneered, and was about to be.

She didn't ask Zhou An what he promised Master Miaoyan, because she knew the purpose of Master Miaoyan's coming to Qianjing, and Qing Wu had revealed to her that Zhou An's approach was not suitable, and also said some good things for the rivers and lakes.

The meaning of the words is to let the empress persuade Zhou An, and don't let Zhou An harm the rivers and lakes.

And on this matter, the empress did not make any statement to Qing Wu.

The empress didn't care about the rivers and lakes, Zhou An did a good job, and the empress didn't want to get involved, so she cared about Zhou An asking Master Miaoyan to take over Bai Xiaokui.

It's been so long, Master Miaoyan lives in the Yamen of Dongchang, and he grinds hard and hard to Zhou An, Zhou An should not have agreed to anything, otherwise Master Miaoyan will leave.

I haven't agreed for so long, but I never expected that for the sake of a Bai Xiaokui, Zhou An changed the arrangement of the rivers and lakes that he had always insisted on.

"Bai Xiaokui was born and died for the imperial court, and she has been in a coma and has not woken ......up from this injury," Zhou An felt that he should explain, but he couldn't say anything.

You also said...... "The empress is going to lose her temper."

"Sister Huang, what's wrong with Bai Xiaokui?" Princess Yunjing suddenly spoke, her small eyes constantly scanning the two of them, and she smelled something unusual.

The empress glanced at Princess Yunjing, as if she was angry, and her face softened: "It's nothing, eat yours, what are children asking about?" ”

"Where is it small...... Princess Yunjing didn't dare to talk back, so she muttered quietly.

She is the same age as Zhou An, and she is one year younger than the empress, of course, not young.

Zhou An could see that the empress was not really discouraged, but Princess Yunjing was here, and she was not good at attacking, after all, "family ugliness should not be publicized".

If she knew that she, the emperor's sister, couldn't control her man, Zhou An's shame and not say it, the empress would definitely be ashamed.

This kind of bad thing, the empress doesn't want the pure Princess Yunjing to know.

"Holy Lord, where is the Jincha Tusi now?" Zhou An changed the topic and chatted with the empress.

"Still in Honglu Temple, Jincha sacrifices are always by his side, and I also dispatched two thousand Tiance troops to station in Honglu Temple." Empress Dao.

Zhou An nodded.

This configuration is ok.

Although there are 2,000 more Heavenly Commanders than before, the High Priest of Jincha guards them all day, which is very different from before.

"The minister went to see after eating, and asked him something about it." Zhou An said again.

"Don't you sleep?" The empress glared at Zhou An.

"Holy Lord, you care so much about your ministers......" Zhou An grinned at the empress.

The empress, who was sulking with Zhou An, suddenly became even more angry, Zhou An was too angry.

"Don't laugh, you have cabbage leaves on your teeth, and you're sick to death!" The empress said in disgust.

"Sister Huang, aren't you going to eat?" Princess Cloudview spoke again.

The empress was silent for a while, but still picked up the chopsticks, she hadn't eaten with Xiao Anzi for many days, why did the empress come? It's not for a "reunion dinner".

Anger is anger, and the meal still has to be eaten.

didn't call anyone else to serve, the empress got up to serve the meal herself, Zhou An followed and wanted to take the bowl for her, she hid for a while, and didn't let Zhou Ansheng.

"Holy Lord, has something happened recently?" Zhou An seemed to have nothing to say.

"Southern War...... The exiles have already ......" The empress opened her mouth twice, but she paused, and finally said: "Lack of money, lack of money in the court!" ”

Money is not everything, but no money is everything.

It's all about the money.

If the imperial court is rich, disaster relief will not be difficult, the people's grievances will not be great, there will be no poor people who can't survive, and the major families will have no basis for rebellion.

Zhou An was silent.

Money matters, no hurry.

In fact, it is a good thing that the empress answered like this, at least it shows that the internal situation in Dongqian has not deteriorated further, otherwise the empress will definitely say it.

"Xiao Anzi, do you still want to retreat?" Princess Cloudview spoke again.

"Hmm!" Zhou An nodded, and said, "It depends on the situation, the matter of the Beirong Heavenly Maiden...... The minister needs to ponder. ”

Outside the window, the night was thick.

It's dinner.

Ate it for a long time.

Zhou An eats a lot, because the deficit is a bit big these days.

The empress was angry with Zhou An because of Bai Xiaokui's matter, but it didn't take long for her to start asking Zhou An about the Heavenly and Human Treasure Map again.

Saying a thousand things and ten thousand, for Zhou An personally, this matter is the most important.

Zhou An didn't hide anything.

The desolate veins are opened to one, and there are eight more to pass, and when the nine desolate veins are all connected, he will try to enter the world of the Heavenly and Human Treasure Map again, and then ...... You can only take one step at a time.

Click.

Hurried footsteps suddenly sounded outside the door.

"The little pavilion is here, go and have a look." Zhou An got up directly, put down the dishes and chopsticks and walked out.

Knock knock!

"Factory Father." With the knock on the door, the sound of a small pavilion sounded outside the door.

I don't know if Xiao Tingzi heard that Zhou An had temporarily ended his retreat to report, or if something happened to happen.

Zhou An opened the door and raised his hand to signal to the outside world.

It means to say it outside.

Don't disturb the Empress and Princess Yunjing for dinner.

Zhou An went out, and the small pavilion turned around and followed Zhou An until he walked to the courtyard.

"Factory Father, this is important information in the past few days, and the White Lotus is back......" Xiaoting Zizi said.

Zhou Ancai took a few intelligence documents that had to be passed from the small pavilion, then looked up at the small pavilion sharply, and then raised his hand to make a "shhhhh

"When did you come back? Just returned? Zhou An's voice formed a line, and only the small pavilion could hear it.

Xiao Tingzi didn't know why Zhou An was suddenly so mysterious, and he didn't dare to speak indiscriminately, so he just nodded.

The White Lotus refers to Bai Xiaokui.

What a coincidence!

Zhou An just finished the retreat, and Bai Xiaokui returned.

"Master Miaoyan escorted her back?" Zhou An transmitted the sound into the secret again.

The little pavilion nodded again.

"But what's the urgency?" Zhou An asked again.

The little pavilion shook his head.

"Go ahead!" Zhou An said, took the paperwork and turned around and walked towards the door.

Pushing the door into the main hall, Zhou An, who was holding a stack of intelligence documents in his hand, walked towards the table and said, "Holy Lord, the minister has to go to the Dongchang Yamen......

"Who is the White Lotus?" The empress squinted and asked directly.

She's eavesdropping!

Tiangang's ears are spirits.

A woman's instincts are terrifying.

"Hmm...... It's Bai Xiaoaoi. Zhou An could only admit it.

"You're going to see her?" The empress asked with squinted eyes again.

"Yes......" Zhou An said stiffly, and explained, "Bai Xiaokui is extremely seriously injured and needs to be treated." ”

"I'll come with you." The empress didn't say anything to lose her temper, but what she said made Zhou An feel terrified.

Shura field!
