Hou Ye's condition improved naturally couldn't hide the eyes and ears of those dignitaries in the capital, so it also made the news of Hou Ye's recovery spread all over the capital one day.

And the emperor, naturally, also knows it clearly.

'Bang-'

Hou Ye's previous illness was recurrent and his stubborn illness was difficult to treat, which made the emperor inadvertently relax his surveillance of the Hou Mansion. After learning the news this time, even if the emperor wanted to intervene again and use the spies planted in the Hou Mansion to investigate, he would not be able to contact him.

The people in the Hou Mansion are all human spirits, and these days are enough for them to find out those spies. As for whether it is dead or alive after finding out, the answer is obvious.

"The emperor is angry." Zhang Xiaotian was recruited into the palace overnight, and as soon as he entered the imperial study, he saw the fragments of the teacup spread all over the ground, "Although the condition of the Hou Ye has improved, he is already old, even if he is good, he will not be able to jump for much time, why should you be angry for a dying person, Your Majesty?" ”

"Although Qin Fengyi, the prince of the Hou Mansion, looks young, he is not easy to deal with." Although the emperor trusts Zhang Xiaotian very much, he is not stupid, which is also the reason why Zhang Xiaotian has not stretched his hand to the imperial power, "Since the old horseman has improved, the Hou Mansion will definitely not be able to fly in now." ”

"There's always a way."

Zhang Xiaotian knew that what the emperor said was true, but he didn't care about it. The emperor may have forgotten Zhou Yunxi, but Zhang Xiaotian can remember it clearly.

Zhou Yunxi, Zhang Xiaotian would not let her follow Qin Fengyi's side.

"What a way."

The emperor narrowed his eyes, looking at his henchman a little more scrutiny. The emperor with such a appearance made Zhang Xiaotian kneel on the ground and kowtow respectfully.

After that, he continued: "Your Majesty, think about it, the woman she brought from the remote place before can now be with the prince of the Hou Mansion. ”

"Aiqing is the woman who has colorful cattle and sheep in her hands and can make them dance?" Although the emperor didn't think of Zhou Yunxi before, as soon as Zhang Xiaotian reminded him, Zhou Yunxi's existence became clear, "That woman has a close relationship with Qin Fengyi?" ”

The emperor knew what Zhang Xiaotian meant after a little pondering, but why did that woman get close to Qin Fengyi? Could it be that Qin Fengyi fell in love with a country woman as rumored?

If this is the case, the faces of those noble ladies in the capital will have no place to rest.

"I heard that Master Hou has acquiesced to the marriage between the two." Zhang Xiaotian also said directly, of course, a lot of information was also omitted, "The minister estimates that the two of them will get married in March at most." ”

After Zhang Xiaotian's words, the emperor's eyes sank.

Emperor Hou Ye also has some understanding, he was born as a military general, but he does not dislike literati, but he is most disgusted with those who intend to climb the dragon and the phoenix.

It stands to reason that Zhou Yunxi's identity as a country woman will not be seen by Hou Ye.

Unless, there's something between them that he doesn't know.

Thinking like this, a thousand thoughts flashed through the emperor's heart. The emperor is suspicious by nature, and this time he was deliberately led by Zhang Xiaotian with ambiguous words, and it is inevitable that he will think more.

"Where did that woman come from?" The emperor thought about it, but he didn't remember the nobles or officials in Beijing who were surnamed Zhou. As for the petty official, the emperor couldn't remember, "I can make the old man acquiesce, I'm afraid he has some ability." ”

"The minister thinks that the problem must be that the woman can make the colorful cows and sheep dance."

Zhang Xiaotian hesitated a little, as if he was not sure.

But it was this kind of uncertainty that made the emperor more and more convinced. 88

"Check it out to me!"

The emperor slammed the table, and at this moment, the emperor also felt that Zhou Yunxi was not simple. Although he had seen Zhou Yunxi's appearance, the colorful cows, sheep and dancing, no matter which one they were, were enough to make the emperor interested.

Especially when Wang Jin made a fuss about this matter before, he also added beautiful and praising words such as 'Guotai Min'an' and 'Xiangrui' -

It is even more impossible for the emperor to leave it alone.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Third Prince has arrived."

"Xuan."

Hearing the whispering of the attendant guarding the door, the emperor's eyes became a little darker. Chu Ci was recruited by him, but he never thought that he would come so late.

"Father, what happened when you summoned your sons over late at night?" Chu Ci gave people a feeling that they couldn't open their eyes, and the whole person looked even more dazed, as if he hadn't woken up, "The guards in the palace came suddenly, and they made a fuss about the three princes' mansions, and they came to the palace with the pressure of the sons...... Father, did the son do something wrong? ”

Chu Ci was a little aggrieved when he said that, but his appearance was a little more similar to his mother.

Seeing Chu Ci's appearance, the emperor also suppressed his anger, and it seemed that he cared about Chu Ci's biological mother's face, and did not get angry directly.

Of course, his tone was no better.

"I asked you to investigate the matter of the colorful cattle and sheep, and you had an accident halfway so you turned back, and you are not to blame for this matter." The Emperor paused, "But the woman's appearance ...... Third child, do you remember clearly? ”

I know that when Zhou Yunxi entered Beijing, he was invited by Chu Ci to the teahouse to 'catch up' in front of the public, so how could Chu Ci not remember?

"I remember it clearly, but I only saw it once, and I can't remember the details." Chu Ci guessed the emperor's intentions, so he hesitated slightly.

But the emperor only thought that Chu Ci really had some vague memory, so he didn't blame it.

"Father-in-law." The emperor didn't continue to ask, but glanced at the big eunuch who had been standing beside him, "Take a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, carry a table, and give the third prince a seat." ”

Hearing the emperor say this, the guess in Chu Ci's heart became an affirmation.

The emperor, I want Chu Ci to draw Zhou Yunxi down!

"Father's ......"

Although he guessed what the emperor was going to do in his heart, Chu Ci still didn't show half a point on his face. He hesitated to speak, made way for the palace people who carried the table and brought pen and ink, and looked at the emperor with puzzled eyes.

Seeing this, the emperor only felt that Chu Ci was really stupid, and what he did was so obvious that Chu Ci still didn't understand. But the emperor did not get angry because of this, but became more and more concerned about Chu Ci.

Because of such a rhetoric, there is no threat to his throne.

"Draw the appearance of the country woman and show it to your father." The emperor's tone was soft, and it was a difference from the previous anger at Chu Ci, "The dancing colorful cow and sheep father emperor is very curious. ”

"But she doesn't have colorful cows and sheep, and those cows and sheep can't dance." Chu Ci tilted his head, as if he couldn't understand the meaning of the emperor's words, "It's just an extremely ignorant woman, why does my father care about her?" ”

"Presumptuous!" Although the emperor's tone towards Chu Ci was milder than before, he was also suppressing a fire in the end. If Chu Ci had come according to his intentions, he would not have been scolded, but at this time, since Chu Ci showed signs of 'disobedience', the emperor naturally sprinkled his anger, "I let you draw you, you will paint, grind and chirp, you can't resist the decree!" ”
