His Royal Highness King Ning sat here in Concubine Tang's Shoukang Palace for a while, and I don't know what the two chatted about for a while, in short, except for the maid who delivered tea for the first time, no one went in to serve.

Shen Mi only got the news after King Ning left Shoukang Palace, and listening to what Li Dehai said, he almost couldn't believe it: "What!?" Has King Ning returned to Beijing? The little imperial uncle who left the capital early to go out to seal the faction? ”

"Yes, that's him." Li Dehai hung his head and clicked a few times, indicating that he definitely did not deceive Shen Mi.

"Are you mistaken? King Nanning hasn't returned to Beijing for ten years," Shen Mi asked, even though he said so, he unconsciously stopped what he was doing, and his face became a little serious, "Returning to Beijing without an edict is a serious crime." ”

"Although the old slave is old and dizzy, he will not be unable to recognize King Ning," Li Dehai said firmly, "Besides, the old slave just looked at the figure of that person at first, and walked out of the Shoukang Palace, but he didn't dare to be hastily convinced, so he followed the person to the palace gate, and the token for the person to leave the palace was indeed His Royal Highness King Ning!" ”

Since they all followed to check the waist card, it must be King Ning? Even if it is not him, it is someone who has arranged for him to enter the palace, after all, a prince who is in the border land should not even have the slightest trace in the capital.

Thinking about it, Shen Mi's face darkened when he heard this, and he suddenly felt as if there was a nameless fire in his heart, he slapped the pen in his hand heavily in front of him, and the ink splashed on the snow-white rice paper in the shape of teeth and claws: "Wow, this imperial uncle is really bold!" It's just a matter of returning to Beijing without an edict, and he didn't come to me to report on his work, but only went to Shoukang Palace to find the concubine, what kind of heart did he have!? ”

Li Dehai bent down and didn't say anything, over the years, Shen Mi's foundation has not been stable but he has frequently turbulent the court, and now King Ning, who has been away for ten years, suddenly returned to Beijing, not to mention that he went to visit Concubine Tang instead of looking for the emperor's position in Beijing, which anyone who heard it felt like a particularly ironic thing.

Unable to hear a reply, Shen Mi continued to scold: "I think he lives in the poor countryside over there, and he doesn't know the rules of the capital!" ”

"Your Majesty, don't be impatient for a while, the top priority is to find out why King Ning came back and why he didn't come to see you," Shen Shu heard Shen Mi's angry voice from afar, and he also hurried over after hearing about King Ning, but he didn't expect Shen Mi to already know about it, but he also saved his own tongue effort.

When Li Dehai saw him come in, he hurriedly turned sideways and bowed to him, Shen Shu nodded, walked up and saluted, and then continued: "Although King Ning has been away for ten years, he will not completely forget the rules of the palace, and the fact that he has done such a felony of killing his head is so rampant, which shows that he must be fearless." ”

Speaking of which, the two brothers and this Uncle Ning Huang did not have much intersection.

I only know that he is young, and he will be ten years older than them at most, so he has been a prince for a while in the early years. Later, the first emperor Shen Lun gave birth to several children, and the evil minister Mo Ruan colluded to abolish the Mo clan to gain power and set up the straw bag Shen Xuan as the crown prince, and the position of the prince naturally drove him down.

Later, when Shen Mi and them were teenagers, this King Ning was sent to the southwest border by the first emperor, and before that, at best, he had met a few times at the palace family banquet, but King Ning had always had a strange temper, and he rarely participated.

To put it mildly, if he hadn't suddenly returned to Beijing to make such a play, they would have almost forgotten the existence of this imperial uncle.

"Fearless?" Shen Mi sneered, his tone was full of banter, "What 'support' does he have to support him?" Such contempt for imperial power...... I don't think he wants to live well! ”

Shen Shu understands Shen Mi's anger very well, he is the emperor, the first thing he did when he returned to Beijing was not to find the emperor, but to meet the person who was not even the emperor's biological mother, this was not an intentional provocation, or he did not put the current Son of Heaven in his eyes at all.

Shen Shu couldn't believe that King Na Ning was just playful, and he couldn't be sure if he really forgot the rules, so he wanted to help Shen Mi come up with ideas, but after thinking about it carefully, he still felt that he didn't know the whole picture, so he didn't comment.

So he tentatively asked, "What...... What is the emperor going to do? Will you directly send him to the palace? ”

Directly edict him into the palace?

This King Ning just swaggered away, he didn't think that there was still an emperor sitting in the Heart Cultivation Palace, if Shen Mi was so anxious to edict him in, I was afraid that everyone would make fun of him, and the emperor didn't have any majesty - the courtiers returned to Beijing without permission, and the emperor was still in a hurry to find him, who wouldn't make fun of him if he heard it?

Shen Mi thought so in his heart, but he didn't say it for the sake of face. He only shouted: "Why did I rush to find him myself!?" If he doesn't want to come to me for the rest of his life, then he will be a turtle with a shrunken head in his small Ning Wang's mansion for the rest of his life! ”

Shen Shu also heard that Shen Mi had something to say, and he didn't pierce him.

Speaking of which, if he went to find King Ning, it would not be very suitable, so he had to let King Ning himself can't bear it anymore according to Shen Mi's intentions, and then come out to speak.

But he was also faintly worried, King Ning would never come back for no reason and be so rampant, he must have some purpose and some backing to dare to do this. If Shen Mi is going toe-to-toe with him...... It may not be able to take advantage of the opportunity.

"Your Majesty, why did this King Ning return...... Could it be because of ......"

Looking at Shen Shu's eyes, Shen Mi's expression also changed slightly, as if he suddenly remembered something in disbelief.

Shen Shu straightened his body and said: "The emperor should first go to inquire about the news of King Ning, he has almost never contacted the capital in the past ten years, whether to accept talents, how well the southwest border is governed, and what people and things did he bring with him when he returned to Beijing this time...... It's all some big breakthroughs, whew...... If it is really the thing we are talking about, there must be a trace. ”

Shen Mi also nodded, took out a pen and paper to write something on it, and folded it carefully before handing it to Li Dehai: "Li Dehai, you go and ask someone to send this to the deputy general of Huangquan in the suburbs of Beijing." ”

Then the two of them sighed in unison - it was a blessing or a curse, it was a curse that could not be avoided, what should come would always come, and they never seemed to have any choice.
