Chapter 2: The king is here to apologize

Tianchen Palace, Imperial Study.

It's midsummer, and the weather is already hot, but in order to isolate the cicadas, the windows of the imperial study are still tightly closed, and there is no cool breeze to penetrate.

In the air, although the smell of ambergris was refreshing, the little eunuch who was guarding the side smelled it for a long time, and only felt pain in the skull.

I couldn't help but secretly look at the young emperor who was still engrossed in front of the dragon case, and the zhu pen was reviewing the folds.

Xie Wuyi was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, handsome and abnormal, and his appearance was obviously almost demonic, but a pair of phoenix eyes were deep and bottomless, and the occasional essence was sharp and majestic, which suppressed the demonic feeling in his appearance, leaving only the power of the emperor that people dare not look at directly.

"Your Majesty." The door of the imperial study was pushed open, and the chief eunuch Chen Fu walked in quickly.

"What?" Xie Wuyi didn't stop the pen in his hand, and he didn't raise his head to speak.

Chen Fu frowned, "Your Majesty, yes, it's the Seventh Prince, he ......"

"Haven't you been in love again?" Xie Wuyi said calmly, "I know, you can then arrange for other candidates." ”

"It's not." Chen Fu hurriedly shook his head.

"Could it be that this time we have succeeded?" Xie Wuyi raised his head, and there was a faint expectation of liberation in his tone.

Chen Fu bowed his body and said with a frowning face: "Emperor Qiqi, it is Lord Pei who has seen the daughter of the family and the prince before, saying that the prince instigated Miss Pei to elope, and also injured Pei Gongzi in the teahouse, and now he is kneeling outside, asking the emperor to uphold justice." ”

"What is instigating elopement, isn't it that the young lady of the Pei family didn't take a fancy to Xie Changye?" Xie Wuyi frowned.

"This ...... The old slave doesn't know what's going on? ”

"That's it, let Pei Yuan come in." Xie Wuyi threw down the pen in his hand and rubbed his eyebrows a little irritably.

Thinking of the last words of the first emperor before his death, I only felt a headache.

And Chen Fu didn't let people talk for long, and soon they arrived at the imperial study.

Pei Yuan has just passed his fiftieth birthday, his sideburns are gray, he has been an official for many years, and he has been serving in the Hanlin Academy.

As soon as he entered the imperial study, he immediately knelt down in front of Xie Wuyi, and accused Xie Changye of instigating elopement and injuring his own son in tears.

"Your Majesty, my Pei family is a scholarly family, but I was humiliated by the Seventh Prince, it is really insulting to Sven, insulting to Sven!"

Pei Yuan opened his mouth in pain, and when he said the excitement, his face turned red, as if he was going to be angry to death in the next moment.

Xie Wuyi furrowed his brows, listening to the insulting Sven who was louder than that, he only felt that his headache was even worse.

"Don't be impatient for the time being, if this matter is really as you say, I will naturally make decisions for you."

"Your Majesty, what the minister said is true, the seventh prince violated the etiquette and disregarded benevolence and righteousness, which is simply insulting and ......"

"That's enough." Xie Wuyi interrupted Pei Yuan, although he was a literati, but his voice was not ordinarily loud, and he continued to listen to his insulting howl, he didn't want this ear.

Pei Yuan was stunned for a moment, and knelt down again.

"Your Majesty, you ......"

Xie Wuyi took a deep breath, "Chen Fu, you immediately send someone to pass on the Seventh Prince's entry into the palace now......"

"The imperial brother doesn't need to send someone to summon him, the younger brother has already come."

Xie Changye appeared at the door of the imperial study, still dressed in red, dazzling, and looked in with a smile.

"Not coming in yet." Xie Wuyi said with a cold face.

"The courtier brother has seen the imperial brother." Xie Changye swaggered into the imperial study and bowed to Xie Wuyi.

As soon as Pei Yuan saw Xie Changye, he stood up suddenly, and was just about to speak, but he didn't expect Xie Changye to take the lead in saying: "What Master Pei wants to say, this king knows it, so you don't need to repeat it." ”

As he spoke, Xie Changye looked at Xie Wuyi with a flattering smile.

"The royal brother is diligent and diligent in his daily work, and he is already very hard working for the country and the people, so naturally he can't waste the royal brother's time."

Although Xie Wuyi was quite tolerant of her on the surface, after all, there was no blood relationship, and in the final analysis, it was only for the sake of the face of the first emperor, and he might not know how to annoy himself in his heart.

As the saying goes, thousands of clothes are worn, and sycophants are not worn, so let's talk about it after coaxing it first.

The generous statements that had been rehearsed several times at home were all blocked in his throat, and Pei Yuan almost choked and didn't come up in one breath.

After coming back to his senses, he hurriedly said to Xie Wuyi: "Your Majesty, please be the master of your ministers!" ”

Xie Wuyi frowned and looked at Xie Changye, "Master Pei accused you of instigating Miss Pei to elope, injured Pei Gongzi, and ripped his robe, do you admit to this charge?" ”

"Brother Qiqi, when Pei Gongzi fell down the stairs, he made a mistake, and his brother wanted to save him, but Pei Gongzi was too heavy, and he didn't even hold it when his belt was torn." Saying that, Xie Changye sighed regretfully, "But don't worry, the imperial brother has always been enthusiastic, and immediately let Pei Gongzi, who broke his leg, be sent to the hospital." ”

"Is the Seventh Prince planning to shirk the quibble? Well, even if you don't mention the matter of the teahouse, you can't deny it if you instigate the daughter of the subordinate official to elope with someone! ”

Xie Changye nodded, "That's the case, but that's because Miss Pei already has a sweetheart." Seeing that Miss Pei was sad and desperate, this king really couldn't bear to encourage Miss Pei to pursue love bravely. Brother Huang, think about it, how difficult it is to meet your sweetheart, and the younger brother helps a lover to eventually become a family, which is also accumulating virtue for the royal brother. ”

Xie Wuyi looked indifferently at Xie Changye, who had a sincere face.

Accumulate virtue for yourself? You don't have to!

As for meeting his sweetheart, he doesn't know whether others are difficult or not, but according to Xie Changye's repeated glances and rejection by women, his seventh brother is indeed very difficult.

Feeling Pei Yuan's angry gaze, Xie Wuyi came back to his senses slightly and spoke.

"That being said, you shouldn't encourage a woman to elope."

"The emperor is right!" Pei Yuan looked at Xie Changye with anger on his face, "The Seventh Prince instigated the little girl, and now he is still here with clever words, refusing to admit his mistakes, and not having the slightest remorse, it is really ......"

Before Pei Yuan could say anything, Xie Changye interrupted him again.

"Who said that this king refused to admit his mistake and apologize, this king came here today to admit his mistake and apologize."

Pei Yuan was stunned for a moment, "Does the Seventh Prince mean that he is willing to admit his mistakes?" ”

Xie Wuyi also raised his eyebrows, Xie Changye is willing to admit his mistake? How did he think it wouldn't be that simple.

"Alas, although this matter is also a good heart, but after all, it still affects the reputation of the Pei family and Miss Pei, so ......"

Xie Changye raised his voice and said with a righteous face: "So this king not only wants to apologize, but also in order to show his sincerity, this king plans to take a team of people tomorrow, beat gongs and drums, and travel all over the imperial city, so that everyone knows that this king is apologizing for Miss Pei's elopement under my influence." ”
