Xie Chengli walked into the garden, the sky was already completely dark, thinking of Yan Fei's suddenly changed face just now, a strange feeling rose in his heart.

The candles in the garden had been lit by the palace maid, and Zhou Yuqiao saw a familiar figure in the distance.

Today, he is wearing an indigo blue court dress, more energetic and handsome than he used to wear in civilian clothes, and the hem of his clothes is flying with his footsteps.

A gust of breeze blew, bringing the unique smell of Xie Chengli's body.

Zhou Yuqiao was happy like a child, and happily ran towards Xie Chengli, shouting coquettishly: "Brother Xie, you don't have a house today?" ”

Xie Chengli froze, isn't Zhou Yuqiao waiting for himself?

"I've been busy with the affairs of the household department these days, and the matter of teaching for His Majesty has been delayed, so I don't want to leave the palace for a few days."

I wanted to see Zhou Yuqiao's reaction, but I didn't expect her to be happier and said: "This is really good, we can see each other often in the palace."

I'm still thinking that I won't see you in the past few days, but I didn't expect the emperor to be so considerate and thank you, big brother. ”

Now Xie Chengli can be completely sure that Zhou Yuqiao is not here for himself, and wondered: "Miss Zhou, why did you enter the palace?" ”

"The queen mother met me before she got married, and now that Brother Xie, you are always by Your Majesty's side, and the queen is naturally closer to me."

Zhou Yuqiao said and spoke, her little face flushed and shy.

But Xie Chengli felt faintly uneasy, the queen was a member of the Sun family, and Sun Tong was even more bent on giving birth to the crown prince and eliminating the emperor.

And Zhou Yuqiao and himself were even more single-handedly matched by Sun Tong, and no one was arranged to investigate the reason for this these days.

Presumably this week, Yusheng has also colluded with Sun Tong!

In this way, Yan Fei's situation will be even more difficult.

Zhou Yuqiao's face was like a delicate flower waiting to bloom, and he murmured: "Brother Xie, you live in that palace at night, can we..."

Before he could say the word "live together", he was interrupted by a light cough.

Zhang Jiang came out from the side and said with a wry smile: "The miscellaneous family has disturbed the two of you?" ”

The corners of Zhou Yuqiao's mouth twitched and said with a smile: "What did Father-in-law Zhang say, Father-in-law Zhang has something to discuss with Brother Xie?" ”

Zhou Yuqiao secretly rejoiced in his heart, fortunately this Zhang Jiang came out in time, otherwise Brother Xie would be embarrassed to death when he asked.

After all, a lady who is a well-known lady in the capital, and when it comes to living with a man, it is really a bit of a profligate.

Zhang Jiang nodded shallowly, and then said with a smile: "Recently, the household department has been busy, and the Taifu has never entered the palace to teach with His Majesty, and His Majesty does not want to delay the cultivation of the relationship between the Taifu and Miss Zhou."

But the slave has to say more, His Majesty is still immature, and many aspects still need a lot of support and help from Taifu. ”

Zhou Yuqiao smiled awkwardly in an instant, remembering that when he gave Xie Chengli soup a few days ago, Xie Chengli said that he was going to enter the palace to teach His Majesty.

I still felt that he was perfunctory, but I didn't expect to know that this thing was true today, and I instantly felt a little sorry for him.

I wanted to ask if I could be punished, but I thought that if the emperor didn't think about such a thing at all, but because he brought it up and let Xie Chengli be punished, it would be worth the loss.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhou Yuqiao bent down and saluted: "It's not early, so the courtiers will retire first." ”

Zhang Jiang nodded, and after she walked away, he looked at Xie Chengli and frowned, and wondered, "Taifu, when is he worried?" ”

"Miss Zhou and the queen are familiar with each other, and I hope that my father-in-law will take care of them more when I come to the palace this time, so as not to have anything inappropriate in the palace."

Zhang Jiang was surprised when he heard this: "Miss Zhou was invited by the queen's mother?" The slave thought that Miss Zhou had come to see Master Xie on purpose, and since this was the case, the slave must take good care of her. ”

As he spoke, Zhang Jiang summoned the little eunuch beside him and ordered him to find someone to take care of him, which was actually another kind of surveillance.

After all, the discord between the emperor and the middle palace is something that the six palaces know, and it is not good to offend the two of them for this little thing.

When Zhang Jiang came back with Xie Chengli, Yan Feifei was studying the matter of the water pipe, and the matter of finding rubber trees had been ordered for a long time, but there was no news.

I'm afraid this matter will have to be cool, Yan Feifei can only think about another excerpt.

Hearing the sound outside, Yan Feifei said, "Go get some ice cubes, and find a few doctors in the hospital." ”

Zhang Jiang didn't answer, Xie Chengli stepped forward and asked, "Why did Your Majesty find the Imperial Doctor's Office?" But what's wrong with your body? Wechen can help you see one or two. ”

Yan Feifei heard Xie Chengli's voice, and there was no surprise, after all, Zhang Jiang is the best at speculating people's hearts, and it is expected that Xie Chengli will come.

"I'm all right, I just want to invite some imperial doctors to come and discuss some things, it hasn't rained in the north for a long time, and now it's autumn.

If we don't use any more measures, I'm afraid that going north will face a situation of no harvest this year.

It occurred to me that if I could make a pipe to divert the water from the river, the dilemma of going north would be alleviated. ”

Xie Chengli stepped forward to look at the sketch drawn in front of Yan Feifei, nodded appreciatively, and said, "The idea is really good." ”

However, after a moment, he changed his words and said: "But this idea is not practical, and it can't solve the dilemma of going north." ”

Yan Feifei raised his eyes and looked at him stunned, his face was slightly unhappy and asked, "Why is it not practical?" If this is successfully developed, it will naturally become a great convenience and welfare for the people. ”

"Your Majesty is reasonable, but I don't know how long it will take for this research process, seeing that the autumn harvest is just a few months away, it is better to dig channels to divert water.

It's just that in this way, it is inevitable that the people will lose their money. ”

Yan Feifei thought about the key to this, his eyes lit up, and he said happily: "Taifu has this wonderful method, why don't you say it earlier, so that you don't have to think hard about it."

As for the loss of money and labor, there is no such thing, I think we can use the victims who went north to dig channels, and our court is at most directing them to do things and provide some money.

There are some truths that have to be taught to the people, and there is nothing wrong with water being able to carry a boat and capsizing a boat, but this boat also has the right to choose whether to go into the water or not. ”

Xie Chengli listened a little fascinated for a while, when she had grown into an emperor who could really take charge of one side.

Or an empress......

Yan Feifei didn't hear Xie Chengli's voice for a long time, and looked up at him, but he didn't want the faces of the two of them......
