After King Yan left the palace, he immediately ordered someone to bring a message to Xiao Rui and ordered him to come to King Yan's mansion.

Xiao Rui was waiting for the result of his entry into the palace, and he was already anxious, and hurriedly rushed to Yanwang's Mansion when he heard the news. When he saw King Yan's calm and smiling appearance, somehow, his heart suddenly relaxed, and he couldn't help but smile: "Father, it seems that you have good news?" ”

"Good news indeed." King Yan motioned for him to sit down beside him, and ordered someone to serve refreshments, and waited for the next person to retreat, before he modified his face of the saint slightly, and then said it, and finally said, "Although the emperor still has some residual anger and is not willing to let Yaozhi enjoy the wealth of the world, Yaozhi's temperament is not uncommon. She has been eating fasting Buddha for many years, and has been praying for the pearl, and now she is just changing places to continue to live this kind of life, there is nothing not used to it, and you don't have to worry about her. When we return to Beiping in two days, we will take her back directly, and let the princess and Qiong Ye find a proper nunnery for her in Beiping City, and it will be easy for you to visit her, and she will no longer have to suffer from the idleness of Xiao Mingde's wife and concubine, and she will live more comfortably. ”

Xiao Rui reluctantly smiled back at him, but his mood didn't improve. He also thought about taking his aunt out to be raised, so that she could enjoy a few years of happiness. In the future, when he marries Mulin and comes back and gives birth to children, his aunt will definitely be even happier. Now, because of the emperor's will, my aunt can't stay in his home to enjoy the joy of family, so she can only find another nunnery to become a monk...... It's so bitter!

He asked King Yan in a low voice, "Father, this matter ...... Is there really no room for turnaround? What did my aunt do wrong, causing the emperor to be so angry, and even you pleaded for mercy in person, and refused to let her go. If I go to the palace to intercede for my aunt, will the emperor's anger calm down a little? ”

No, his anger will only burn harder.

King Yan quietly pressed Xiao Rui's shoulder: "Don't worry, the emperor is angry right now, he may not be able to listen to what you say, and maybe he will be punished more severely because he is annoyed." Let's take Yaozhi back to Beiping first, when we get to Beiping City, the emperor is far away, as long as the kung fu on the surface is passable, how did you arrange your aunt in private, how will the emperor know? Since I said that I want to record you in Mingzhu's name, then others will not pay much attention to your aunt, and she can live quietly for a few years. When things have changed, the situation in the capital has stabilized, and you have made a contribution, you can find a time when the emperor is happy, and quietly beg him for mercy, how can he not agree? ”

Xiao Rui thought so, and hurriedly got up and saluted King Yan: "Thank you for the reminder!" ”

"Good boy, what are you polite to your father?!" King Yan grabbed him, pulled him back to his side and sat down, "We will be the closest relatives in the future, and we will live together." Over the years, my father has been derelict in his duties, and you have suffered a lot, as long as it can make you happy, what is this little request? You can be more bold, don't worry about being coquettish with your father and me! ”

Xiao Rui has never liked to be coquettish in front of his father, so he can only laugh twice about it, and laugh haha.

He still felt a little sad in his heart. Even if King Yan didn't mention it, he noticed it, although Li Yaozhi gave birth to his son for King Yan, but more than ten years have passed, and King Yan no longer has any feelings for Li Yaozhi. Maybe he has a deeper affection for his childhood sweetheart Xiao Mingzhu, who has been dead for more than ten years, than for Li Yaozhi, an old lover. The reason why he was willing to help save her was simply to fulfill her son's wishes. Aunt Li Yaozhi not only lost the love of her husband, but also because of the emperor's will, she had to leave her son's side in the future and go to the nunnery to cultivate. Xiao Ruida felt sorry for his biological mother from the bottom of his heart.

King Yan quickly sensed Xiao Rui's sadness, but he didn't have to think about it to know that it must be related to Li Yaozhi's going to become a monk. The emperor has already made an edict, what else can he do as a courtier? If you want to find a way, you have to be patient and find the right time, and now is really not the time to think about this. It also took him a lot of effort to transfer the emperor's anger to Empress Cao, the Cao family, Xiao Guifei and the three princes. As long as the emperor's anger is vented, how Li Yaozhi will be resettled in the future is really just a trivial matter. Anyway, on the territory of Yanwangfu, he has the final say in everything. As long as he brings people back to Beiping as soon as possible. Before the battle for the succession in the capital comes to an end, he doesn't plan to get into this muddy water again.

In order to cheer up Xiao Rui again, King Yan changed the topic: "The emperor asked about your marriage with concern, and I told Xie Pu's second daughter. The emperor was not very satisfied, but he knew that you liked it, and he did not object again. But if you don't live in harmony with the Xie family in the future, the emperor may give you a beauty at any time, or pick a side concubine from everyone or something, so don't be too willful in whatever you do in the future. When Xie marries you, the glory and joy of his life will be tied to you. Think about the relationship between the two of you when you knew each other, the girl has been waiting for you for two or three years, you can't be too unconscientious! ”

Xiao Rui's face suddenly turned grim: "Father, don't worry, my son understands." In addition to the second sister of Xie, the son can't tolerate the second person in his heart! ”

King Yan smiled: "When the love is strong, what love can't be said?" But if this intention is to remain unchanged for a lifetime, it is difficult. I hope you will remember those words for the rest of your life. Otherwise, I, the father, have the cheekiness to deceive other people's precious daughters for you, but I have been wronged by you, and my father will not have the face to meet his right-hand man in the future! ”

"I won't......" Xiao Rui muttered twice unconvinced, but did not argue. There is nothing to argue about this kind of thing, anyway, he will prove it with his whole life.

King Yan smiled, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "The Queen Mother wants to see you, she doesn't know about your biological mother yet, and the emperor and I are a little vague." But I will accompany you into the Cining Palace to visit, and when the time comes, I will mention the pearl, and then say that your aunt is a loyal maid who raises orphans for the old master, and the queen mother is kind and will definitely reward her. Knowing that the emperor was angry and ordered your aunt to become a monk, the queen mother would also compensate. When you say a few more good words, you will make the Queen Mother happy, and it will be easier to intercede for your aunt in the future. ”

Xiao Rui hurriedly agreed.

It was not early, King Yan asked Xiao Rui to stay with him for dinner, and personally sent this son out of the palace after the meal: "Go back and pack your things, Ming'er will move over directly." Your aunt doesn't have to worry, the fleet of Yanwangfu is parked on the dock, let your people send your aunt over, and someone will arrange for her to stay on the boat in advance. When we leave the capital, it's not too late for you to pick a time to go over and see her. Until then, it's better to be patient a little bit and don't attract the attention of outsiders. ”

Xiao Rui naturally has nothing to do. On the way back to General Zhuguo's mansion, his feet became brisk, and he thought in his heart that he had to deliver a letter to Xie Mulin, so that she could rest assured, and solemnly thank her by the way. If it weren't for her reminder, he wouldn't have saved his aunt so quickly.

As he was walking, a figure suddenly flashed in front of him, and a black shadow came out from the side of the road and called: "Second cousin young master!" ”

He was almost startled, but when he looked at it, he recognized it as the former servant of the third prince, and couldn't help frowning: "Why are you here?!" ”
