He lynched the murderer, and ordered him to be thrown into a mountain stream.

Even if the court investigates it, it is just a "fall".

"This king knows, let's take people down the mountain first."

Bo Zhaoxu didn't give any thoughts to Nan Chen, he was sure that he would be able to pick up Xiang Yeqi here from the beginning, so when he went up the mountain, he ordered someone to prepare the carriage for Xiang Yeqi to ride down the mountain, so as not to lead Xiang Yeqi down.

Then does he, the prince, want to lose face?

After tossing and turning all night, the sky was half bright, just when the sky was just breaking.

He glanced up at the sky and hugged the night closer.

When he returned to the mansion at the foot of the mountain, the coachman suddenly stopped and said to Bo Zhaoxu: "Lord, the carriage is parked outside the mansion, but there are distinguished guests in the mansion today?" ”

Xiang Yeqi curiously opened the curtain and glanced twice, and Wu Zixi, who was sitting in the carriage on the other side, also tacitly chose to open the curtain at this time, and smiled slightly at the same direction as Yeqi.

Xiang Yeqi slept soundly on the carriage, and now he was full of energy, and jumped off the carriage in one leap, which can be called a model of remembering food and not remembering.

It's Bo Zhaoxu, who didn't dare to close his eyes all day long.

Wu Zixi was also about to get out of the car to meet Yeqi, but he turned around and glanced at it very stiffly, as if he was asking for Gu Yanchao's "permission", Gu Yanchao nodded indifferently, and Wu Zixi finally stepped down from the carriage.

"How long has the county lord of the Chang Dynasty been waiting here?" Xiang Yeqi is very hospitable at this time.

"You and the Fourth Highness, weren't you in the house last night?" Wu Zixi tilted his head in surprise, "I didn't wait long, but it was only two or three hours, and I was to blame us, but I forgot to inform us in advance, even if you are not in the house for a few days, you can't find anyone to blame." ”

"It's hard for Lord Gu to take Mrs. for a ride, go in and sit."

Bo Zhaoxu yawned lazily, and hugged his wife lovingly, but he refused to look at it directly, as if he was reluctant.

Wu Zixi glanced at Bo Zhaoxu's compassionate movements, and then glanced at Gu Yanchao - this person didn't seem to see his existence, and strode to follow Bo Zhaoxu's side, looking like a monarch and a minister.

She had to take difficult steps alone, enduring the back injury left a few days ago, and she really didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction from her face.

When Xiang Yeqi and Wu Zixi were unaware, Bo Zhaoxu and Gu Yanchao's sight had already had a secret competition, and as for the better one, it was obviously Bo Zhaoxu.

"Where did the Fourth Highness go last night? Listening to the doorman of the house, the prince and the princess were not in the house all day, and Weichen almost went back to Beijing with his insider. ”

Gu Yanchao seemed to be testing Bo Zhaoxu's tone, but others couldn't see the deep meaning of it.

It's just that this person has a slightly stronger purpose, and he even sees a little eyebrow at the night.

Luzhou is not far from the capital, and it is not difficult to arrange a good itinerary, not to mention that it is not troublesome to send someone to carry a letter to inform you, so what is the need to rush over without mentioning it?

What Bo Zhaoxu thinks is more profound than Xiang Yeqi.

I'm afraid that the purpose of Gu Yanchao's trip is not to visit Bo Zhaoxu, but to find out whether Bo Zhaoxu is in Luzhou.

Gu Yanchao's faction is not obvious, it seems that everyone is an inconsequential move, and there is no need to win over, or there is no possibility of winning over.

However, every faction in the court is quite concerned about Gu Yanchao, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are good friends.

And Gu Yanchao is much more shrewd than Bo Zhaoxu's brainless second brother, if he really regards Bo Zhaoxu as a variable, he will care whether Bo Zhaoxu is safe and stays in Luzhou.

Or in the name of asking for the inner seal, to plot the next thing.

After all, in the eyes of the world, Bo Zhaoxu is a young talent with unlimited prospects and great promise, how can he invite himself to the fiefdom in a good manner, and he looks like he has no intention of power?

Anyone should be suspicious of one or two, and see if he Bo Zhaoxu is in the name of leaving Beijing to go to the fiefdom, and privately weaving his own forces to enrich his ambitions.

Let's take a look at the fact that Gu Yanchao is hostile to Bo Zhaoxu, but he is not as stupid as Bo Chengkan, and before he has a firm foundation, he is anxious to tear Bo Zhaoxu's face and make trouble seeing each other, which is very ugly.

"My own princess has a lot of petty temperament, and she wants to go to the mountains to see the stars, so this king naturally wants to indulge her."

Bo Zhaoxu's reply was biased in favor of Xiang Yeqi, otherwise the mere fact that he was taken captive up the mountain by someone of unknown origin would give Xiang Yeqi a headache for a while.

"It's just that the mountain is not peaceful, and the local county official is a corrupt official who does not act, so the king had to take action to solve those murderers for the local people, so he delayed the time to return home."

"I see."

Gu Yanchao nodded suspiciously, and with his identity, it was difficult to ask any further.

Although he was able to gain a firm foothold in Beijing by virtue of his identity as the husband of the county lord of the Chang Dynasty, he did not reach the point where he could be on an equal footing with Bo Zhaoxu.

"Lord, the little maid in the porter has passed the word - saying that someone is coming from the palace."

"The king knows."

Bo Zhaoxu looked sideways and retreated, but his eyes looked at Gu Yanchao's face, but he saw that this person also frowned a little inadvertently, naturally he didn't know.

The Fu Gonggong who came from the palace was born with a fox statue, which made Xiang Yeqi look very uncomfortable, and his speech was not very good: "The slave has seen the prince, but I don't know that the prince's mansion is so lively, and the slave seems to be a little abrupt." ”

"Nothing to be abrupt about."

Bo Zhaoxu omitted the process of greeting each other with his familiar father-in-law.

"What arrangements did your father send you here, you just said it."

The old slave bluntly said that it was not His Majesty's intention to dare to come to see His Royal Highness this time...... It is the will of the Queen's mother. ”

Gonggong Fu glanced at Gu Yanchao very defensively, what is it if it is not precaution? This means that Gu Yanchao is here, he can't say it, this is the style of the old man in the palace.

Gu Yanchao was also very knowledgeable, and he got up to find the steps for himself: "Gonggong Fu will discuss with the Fourth Highness first, and the official will take his inner people to wander around in Luzhou for a few days." ”

"I see, I hope the old slave didn't disturb Lord Gu and the prince, otherwise it will cut off the head of the old slave, and it will not be enough to make up for the two adults."

After saying politely, Gonggong Fu stayed by Bo Zhaoxu's side: "The queen wants to invite Your Majesty back to the palace." ”

"Why?"

Bo Zhaoxu asked.

"This ......"

Father-in-law Fu was so frightened by Bo Zhaoxu's interrogation tone that he trembled, and when he saw it in his eyes, he quietly muttered in his heart that Bo Zhaoxu was quite good at interrogating people.

"The prince can rest assured that letting you go back to Beijing this time will not be a crime for you! It's really that something happened to His Majesty's side, and there is no one in the court who can help the presiding officer, and His Royal Highness is under house arrest by His Majesty......

Bo Chengkan was actually placed under house arrest?

This is one of the expected results of Xiang Yeqi, Bo Chengkan is such a demon, and it is not strange to put himself in, but the punishment of this old emperor is really indescribable......

"What's wrong with my father?" Bo Zhaoxu's face changed slightly.

"Strange disease! It's a strange disease! ”

Gonggong Fu muttered thoughtfully: "The old slave doesn't dare to talk about what kind of illness His Majesty has, but he has no energy all day long, and he can barely support his body to maintain the government at the beginning. The worst thing is ......"

This Fu Gonggong wanted to speak and stopped, as if he was going to lose his head if he continued.

"How?"

Ren Bo Zhaoxu asked again, but Gonggong Fu refused to reveal half a word: "You better go back to Beijing to have a look by yourself, the old slave really doesn't dare to say more!" ”

He and Xiang Yeqi were originally going to escort a kind of bandit on Partridge Mountain back to Beijing, but now that the old emperor has something to do, then he has one more reason to stay in Beijing.

Therefore, it is not a bad thing to return to Beijing at this time.

Xiang Yeqi and Bo Zhaoxu hurried back to Beijing that night, and before returning to the house to rest, they first rushed to the Qilong Palace to visit the old emperor who had an accident.

"The concubine won't go in, right?" Xiang Yeyan was a little nervous and coquettish to Bo Zhaoxu, "The concubine is waiting for you outside the palace gate, and she will definitely not move around at will." ”

Her impression of the old emperor was so bad that she lived for one more year when she saw each other!

Bo Zhaoxu probably also felt Xiang Yeqi's resistance to these trivial matters in the palace, so he didn't force it, and went to see the emperor who was lingering on the sickbed alone, and there was a sleeping concubine next to the emperor.

The old emperor lay on the couch with an earthy face, his eyes half-open, like a dead body, and a little sound could make him collapse into ashes.

Bo Zhaoxu let go of his footsteps, lest he disturb the old emperor's rest.

However, the old emperor suddenly sat up in shock, pointed at Bo Zhaoxu and shouted angrily: "Rebel, who allowed you to come back!" I obviously sealed you to Partridge Prefecture, do you want to rob me of the throne? ”

Without waiting for Bo Zhaoxu to answer, the old emperor picked up the celadon next to the couch and smashed it back, forcing Bo Zhaoxu to retreat step by step: "Okay, you all want me to die early, you can rob me of the throne!" ”

Seeing that the old emperor was groping for other artifacts that could be smashed at Bo Zhaoxu, in order to protect himself, Bo Zhaoxu had no choice but to withdraw from the Qilong Hall first.

"Didn't hurt you, did you?"

Xiang Yeqi smiled bitterly, the old emperor made such a big move, and she was scared to guard outside the door, why bother Bo Zhaoxu, who was head-to-head with the old emperor.

Bo Zhaoxu shook his head and said, "It's strange. ”

This is not surprising.

Although the old emperor also protected the throne to the extreme point before, he would not be like a madman.

"The Fourth Highness is finally back, and this palace is really dying!"

The queen rushed over from a distance in a huffy manner, and complained to the two like pouring beans: "Since His Majesty got a strange illness a few days ago, he has refused to see anyone, only the rumored concubine." If Your Majesty dotes on the sister of the concubine, the palace will admit it, but Your Majesty refuses to even see the imperial doctor now, otherwise he will smash things. ”
