After hearing that the emperor only wanted Huo Lingxiao to follow Wei Xiyue to deal with the drought, the prince was very surprised.

Father was obviously worried that no one was willing to deal with this drought before, but now how could he only let Huo Lingxiao solve this matter with the heroine alone, and even did not allow others to follow. This knowledge of drought is not a trivial matter, one more person also has one more insurance, so isn't my father worried, only Wei Xiyue and Huo Lingxiao will mess things up?

The crown prince was really puzzled, and finally decided to enter the palace and ask the queen about the situation on the emperor's side.

After the prince entered the palace, he told the queen what he knew, and the queen didn't know about it, but seemed even more surprised than the prince.

"When did the emperor trust this Wei Xiyue and Huo Lingxiao so much? I haven't heard of any of these things, is your news fake? The queen looked at the prince with some suspicion and said.

The crown prince's brows furrowed slightly, but he shook his head, "My news should not be false, I think my father may really have issued this order, so I entered the palace to find the queen mother, you asked about the situation, but I didn't expect that even you didn't know about it." ”

When the queen heard the prince say this, she couldn't help but habitually stretch out her hand to her eyebrows, rubbed it, and closed her eyes slightly, "If this is really the case, and Huo Lingxiao really happens to complete this thing by then, then this situation is not good for us." ”

Hearing the queen say this, the crown prince also looked solemn, "That's true." ”

After feeling that Meixin was a little more comfortable, the queen slowly opened her eyes and looked at the crown prince, "Anyway, we have to confirm whether this news is true or false first, so let's go and let people inquire first, you can wait in my palace for a while, and then we will discuss how to deal with this matter." ”

The crown prince did not hesitate, just nodded directly, and then sat down in the queen's palace.

The queen also sent her own henchmen to inquire into the matter.

The emperor did give this order, yes, this is not a difficult thing to find out, but in half an hour, the henchman gave the queen and the crown prince a positive answer.

Hearing that the henchman confirmed this matter, the queen dared to affirm the authenticity of this matter, and couldn't help but be a little dignified for a while, and asked the henchman again, "Then have you found out why the emperor gave this order?" ”

The henchman nodded and said, "I heard that the third prince specially begged the emperor to say that too many people should not be involved in this matter, so as not to interfere with people with intentions, so the emperor issued an order not to allow others to interfere in this drought again." ”

Hearing the words of the henchman, the queen and the crown prince were not surprised at all, but felt that this matter was even more tricky.

"Queen Mother, you say, could it be that Huo Lingxiao discovered something, so he went to ask his father for this order?" The prince asked with some alarm.

The queen shook her head and denied the prince's conjecture, "No, although Huo Lingxiao is now favored by your father, whether it is in terms of connections or anything else, his strength is definitely not as great as ours, and he has not yet been able to find out what we have done." ”

The prince was still a little uneasy, "But I always feel that Huo Lingxiao is not as simple as we seem, he must have left his hand." ”

The queen glanced at the crown prince, "You, you are still too young, let's relax in this matter, even if Huo Lingxiao has a spare hand, his hole cards cannot be bigger than ours, knowing this matter, we can put our minds on other things." ”

The crown prince had no choice but to nod, and then he grabbed the key words in the queen's words and asked, "Queen Mother, what is this other thing you are talking about?" ”

The queen shook her head, "Prince, didn't you notice it?" Your father's mood has not been very good recently, looking at your recent style, it is really a little not restrained, other things are to let you learn to observe words and feelings, especially look at your father's face, remember to be cautious in words and deeds recently, don't recruit him. ”

Hearing the queen's reminder, the prince understood, and after saluting the queen, he took his leave and left.

Not long after the crown prince came out of the queen's palace, he bumped into Huo Lingxiao and Huo Zeshen, who were about to go to the queen mother's palace.

Thinking of the things he had just talked about with the queen, the prince stopped the two directly.

"Fourth Emperor Brother, Eleventh Emperor Brother, where are you going?" With a somewhat fake smile, the prince asked the two of them.

Huo Lingxiao also replied to the prince with a false smile, or because he didn't like the prince very much, he put on a straight face and said in a not very good tone, "Isn't Kunning Palace Cining Palace in the future?" The prince's question may not be too unnecessary. ”

The prince laughed dryly, but he didn't refute Huo Zeshen, his eyes were always on Huo Lingxiao's body.

Huo Lingxiao naturally noticed the prince's gaze, and couldn't help asking, "What has the prince been watching me do?" Could it be because there's something on my face? ”

The crown prince shook his head and said with a smile, "It's not true, it's just that as soon as I saw the imperial brother, I remembered the drought in the northwest." I heard that the emperor's brother specially asked the emperor for an order, is that so? ”

Huo Lingxiao did not shy away from it, and said directly, "That's true, I just think Wei Xiyue is quite right, many ill-intentioned people covet the fat of disaster relief to avoid people with intentions from interfering, so I asked my father for the order, does the imperial brother think there is anything wrong?" ”

The prince looked at Huo Lingxiao, paused for a long time and didn't speak, Huo Lingxiao let him see, the prince really didn't see the clue, so he spoke again, "Then isn't the imperial brother afraid of others gossiping about you?" For example, Brother Huang, you are here for this piece of fat and want to guard and steal yourself? ”

The light in Huo Lingxiao's eyes flashed, and before he could respond, Huo Zeshen directly blocked in front of Huo Lingxiao, "The prince is inevitably a little too worried, right?" We're all royalty, so what do we need to do? People who can think of these things are all in the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. ”

The prince's words were suddenly blocked back by Huo Zeshen, and he was even more embarrassed for a while, and in the end, no one spoke.

Huo Zeshen said directly, "It's not too early now, my third brother and I are still in a hurry to see the Queen Mother, so I won't accompany you, the prince forgive me." ”

After speaking, Huo Zeshen directly pulled Huo Lingxiao and left.

On the other hand, Huo Zeyu also encountered the same situation as the crown prince, and hurriedly entered the palace to ask Concubine Yao, and was very dissatisfied after learning that Huo Lingxiao had made the emperor's order.

"Huo Lingxiao actually wants to take over this errand by himself, if this thing is really done, then isn't he the only one in the eyes of his father?" Huo Zeyu said indignantly, and what he said was exactly the same as the queen.

"It's not necessarily, if he can't do it and messes up this matter, then we will benefit." Concubine Yao looked at another level and comforted Huo Zeyu.

Huo Zeyu listened to Concubine Yao's words, but he was even more uneasy, "I have also heard Wei Xiyue's theory, it is indeed a feasible method, if they do it, maybe it is really possible to succeed......"

As Huo Zeyu spoke, he fell into thought again, and paused for a while, until Concubine Yao wanted to call him, Huo Zeyu opened his mouth again, "No, we must not let Huo Lingxiao take over this matter alone!" Either way, we're going to have to get involved. ”

Concubine Yao didn't know what Huo Zeyu was thinking, but it was really a bit troublesome to meddle in the matter of the drought, "The emperor has given orders, how can it be so easy to meddle?" Not to mention this drought, even if we intervene, we may not be able to do it, so it is better to forget it. “

Concubine Yao retreated, but Huo Zeyu did not allow her to do so.

"No! Mother, you must help me with this matter, no matter what, this matter must be solved. Even if there is no way to pass my father, I must meddle in this matter! Huo Zeyu said very firmly.

Seeing Huo Zeyu like this, Concubine Yao couldn't help frowning, "This Huo Lingxiao is not something I can control, if it is really as easy as you say, then we don't have to worry." ”

Huo Zeyu was even more anxious and angry, "Mother, what else do you think we can do?" We have to solve Huo Lingxiao! ”

Concubine Yao was not so confused, but she was disturbed by Huo Zeyu at this time, so she could only close her eyes first and calm herself before she opened her mouth.

"Zeyu, you're too emotional, so let's be calm. This matter is related to the interests of our mother and son, and I am sure that I will not ignore it, but after all, this matter is not as simple as it sounds, you know? Concubine Yao said word by word.

I don't know how recently, Huo Zeyu is easy to get angry as soon as he encounters something related to Huo Lingxiao, Yao Guifei can't stand it, but she can't say anything about him, so in the end, she can only persuade him like this.

Huo Zeyu naturally found out that something was wrong with him, but he felt anxious when he thought of Huo Lingxiao, and his emotions were out of his control, and now that Concubine Yao was talking to him like this, it also made him feel a lot more comfortable, and he could barely control it a little.

"Then concubine, tell me, how are we going to solve this matter?" Huo Zeyu looked at Concubine Yao and asked.

Concubine Yao pondered a little and said, "Although the emperor does not allow others to follow, Wei Xiyue and Huo Lingxiao will definitely bring some people with them, I am ready to buy those who go with them to deal with the drought, understand the situation, and help you, what do you think?" ”

Hearing this, Huo Zeyu also felt that this matter was feasible, so he nodded, "Then let's do it like this." ”

After speaking, Huo Zeyu didn't stay long, and directly said goodbye to Concubine Yao, and hurriedly went back to prepare for this matter.
