Chapter 254: Tacit Understanding
The emperor stared at Prime Minister Yan's black head with a calm face, and said in a very impatient tone: "Prime Minister Yan, say something quickly!" ”
"Back to the emperor, here's the thing. Today is the Harvest Festival, and it is also a day for us ordinary people to cheer. Now that Princess Ning is a little lonely with her children in the palace alone for the holidays, why don't you let Princess Ning go back to King Ning's mansion to reunite with her family. Prime Minister Yan lowered his head and said word by word, and his tone was firm.
As soon as Prime Minister Yan's words came out, there was a burst of boos in the hall. The ministers all felt that Prime Minister Yan was too bold, how could he dare to ask the emperor about this kind of question?
"Hmph, what do you mean by Prime Minister Yan?" The emperor's tone was full of suppressed anger, and a terrifying cold light shot out of his half-squinted eyes, "Ning Wangfu is my son and the granddaughter-in-law of the Queen Mother, and Cheng Wei is still my imperial grandson." This palace is their home, where else do they need to go for the holidays? ”
When the emperor said this, his eyes looked at Prime Minister Yan's head steadily, as if he wanted to shoot a hole in Prime Minister Yan's head with his gaze. Prime Minister Yan still lowered his head, but his lowered eyes were full of deep hatred for the emperor, which is why he has been reluctant to raise his head.
Prime Minister Yan was worried that he would want to tear the emperor apart when he looked at him. This is the first time Prime Minister Yan has seen a biological father arrest his son's child as a threat, this emperor is really exterminating humanity! Prime Minister Yan was very angry, he had endured it for a long time, and he always couldn't help but bring it up to the emperor today. Unexpectedly, the emperor still refused.
Seeing that Prime Minister Yan still didn't speak, the emperor knew that Prime Minister Yan was still dissatisfied with his decision, and the faces of some of the ministers below were as unsightly as Prime Minister Yan, and the emperor felt that he still needed to explain to them: "Now that King Ning is being detained for making a mistake, King Ning's Mansion has no male master as a pillar." It is not easy for Princess Ning to be a weak woman with a child, so I and the Queen Mother decided to bring their mother and son close to the palace to take care of King Ning. ”
Hearing the emperor say this, the ministers knew that it was impossible for the emperor to release Princess Ning and the little imperial grandson. But the emperor's words make people sound really hypocritical, and the ministers can only hold back from showing the disdain in their eyes if they bow their heads like Prime Minister Yan. Although there are still people who want to correct the emperor's statement that King Ning made a mistake and was imprisoned, they are all worried that they will get angry with the emperor when they talk about it. For the sake of their own lives, they still endured this impulse.
"Okay, there's nothing to do." The emperor waved his hand impatiently, and before the ministers could shout long live the emperor, the emperor retreated from the rear.
"Let's go, accompany me to see my little emperor." The emperor came out of the hall and felt relaxed. Suddenly, he missed the little emperor and grandson who had a loud voice when he cried, and he realized that it seemed that after Chen Xi and Cheng Wei entered the palace, he hadn't seen them yet.
"Okay." Gonggong Li smiled doggedly, then shook the dust on his hand towards the back, and shouted loudly: "Drive Ningfu Palace!" ”
Ningfu Palace is the place where King Ning lived when he was the prince, and it is the name of the palace that uses his name and Queen Yan's expectation of "happiness" for him. Chen Xi and Cheng Wei were taken into the palace, and the Queen Mother asked people to clean up some and let their mother and son live in directly.
"The emperor has arrived!" Chen Xi, who was teasing Cheng Wei in Ningfu Palace, heard his father-in-law's summons, and immediately tidied up his clothes, and asked the nurse to take Cheng Wei, who was already drowsy, to rest.
"The concubines participate in the emperor, and the emperor is blessed with peace and security." When the emperor arrived at the gate of the palace, Chen Xi greeted him and saluted.
"Get up." The emperor said lightly, and kept moving forward. When the emperor saw that there was no shadow of the little emperor and grandson he wanted to see in the hall, the emperor's face sank, and his gaze at Chen Xi was no longer so restrained, "What about Cheng Wei?" ”
The emperor felt that Chen Xi deliberately hid Cheng Wei because of his arrival.
"Back to my father, Cheng Wei just fell asleep not long ago, and he was in the inner hall." At the mention of Cheng Wei, Chen Xi's face floated with the light of his mother, pointed in the direction of the inner hall, and said with a happy face.
The emperor looked at Chen Xi without saying a word for a while. Chen Xi met the emperor's gaze, with a puzzled look on his face. After seeing Chen Xi's expression like this, the emperor no longer had doubts about Chen Xi's words, so he withdrew his gaze and said, "Well, then, I will go back first." In the afternoon, it is the harvest festival of the year, and you should bring Cheng Wei with you to attend. ”
"Okay, thank you, Father." Chen Xi bowed slightly.
The emperor turned around and walked two steps, suddenly stopped, turned back, looked at Chen Xi and asked, "Do you complain that I and the Queen Mother left you and Chengwen in the palace?" ”
"Where is the father, this is the love of the father and the emperor's grandmother for the concubines and Chengwen, and the concubines are too late to be grateful, how can they complain!" Chen Xi said with gratitude on his face.
It's really resentful, but she's a weak woman, and her husband is locked up by you disgusting people. No matter how much she complains, she doesn't dare to say it! It's not that I'm dying. Chen Xi lowered his head, and after the emperor nodded in satisfaction after hearing her answer, Chen Xi's face showed a mocking smile.
The bridal grandmother saw endless sadness on Chen Xi's face, and the marrying grandmother had a tacit understanding that she did not bother Chen Xi in the past. Just looking at Chen Xi, her heart was also sour.
"I'm going to enter the palace in the afternoon, and you guys are going to get ready." As soon as Princess Pi handed over Hua Xin to her subordinates to carry her to rest, she turned around and said to Shen Yafei and Xu Shizi.
"We'll save it, Princess." Xu Shizi said seriously.
"Well, you know. I don't know if I can see Princess Ning and the little emperor this afternoon? Princess Hai remembered the first time she saw Cheng Wen.
Cheng Wei looks so well-behaved, and his smile is both innocent and sweet. How could anyone bear to use such a cute child as a bait for blackmail! For the sake of rights and interests, humanity is exterminated. Princess Pi wanted to see if Chen Xi and Cheng Wei were doing well in the palace at this palace banquet, hoping to help the mother and son.
"I guess so." Shen Yafei was not sure, "However, if the emperor is not afraid of being criticized, he will definitely let Chen Xi and the little emperor and grandson attend today's palace banquet." After all, their external rhetoric was to take Chen Xi and the little emperor into the palace to take care of King Ning, not to put them under house arrest. ”
"Yes." Princess Pi still couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
"By the way, I asked someone to get two bottles of medicine, and you asked someone to find a way to hand it over to Chen Xi." Shen Yafei said to Xu Shizi.
"Okay." Xu Shizi agreed directly without thinking about it.
"Wait a minute, Dabao will bring it to you." Shen Yafei said.
"Hmm." Xu Shizi nodded in response.
In the afternoon, the carriage drove from the palace to the palace. When he arrived at the gate of the palace, Cheng Fang stopped the carriage, turned around and said to the master in the carriage: "The prince, the princess, we have arrived." ”
Xu Shizi was the first to get out of the carriage, and when he passed by Cheng Fang's side, Cheng Fang whispered quickly in Xu Shizi's ear: "Chen Gongzi has also arrived." ”
The voice was very light and thin, and after Cheng Fang finished speaking, the expression on his mouth and face did not change. However, Xu Shizi still received the message from Cheng Fang, and Xu Shizi nodded slightly to Cheng Fang almost invisibly, and then jumped out of the car.
Xu Shizi followed Shen Yafei before turning around, pretending to suddenly find Chen Si: "Asi, what a coincidence." ”
Chen Si heard Xu Shizi's call, and when he turned around and saw Xu Shizi, his eyes were full of surprise: "Ah Xu, such a coincidence." ”
Chen Si walked over, hugged Xu Shizi, patted Xu Shizi on the back excitedly and said, "I haven't seen you kid for a long time." Since you went to Wuzhou, I met you at the gate of the city, and I haven't seen you since. Ouch, you kid, you've changed a lot. ”
"Not really." Xu Shizi also suddenly sighed, "This is still thanks to the Holy Lord for letting me go to Wuzhou, so that I can exercise myself." ”
"Yes, when you went to Wuzhou, we were all worried about you. In our hearts, we are going to envy. I didn't expect Wuzhou to have such a charm, which can turn a swinger into a calm and steady man. Chen Si pinched the two bottles in his sleeve, stunned for a moment, and soon had a smile in his eyes.
"If you are really envious, you will let the emperor send you out to exercise as well." Xu Shizi laughed.
Then, he whispered in Chen Si's ear: "This is the medicine that the princess of my family prepared for Princess Ning." ”
Chen Sima waved his hand in fear and said, "It's better to say goodbye, I still like to be in the capital." It doesn't matter if you don't become a man, as long as Lao Tzu is now my father's son. ”
"You kid, you'll talk about it." Xu Shizi shook his head.
Then, he whispered to Chen Si: "Adults and children can eat it, one every three days." ”
Chen Si nodded in agreement, and then patted Xu Shizi's shoulder with his hand to express his gratitude.
"Let's go inside." After Xu Shizi finished chatting with Chen Si, he turned around to pick up Shen Yafei, he walked in front of Shen Yafei and stretched out his hand towards Shen Yafei.
Shen Yafei looked at him with a smile, and then put her little hand into the palm of Xu Shizi's palm.
Xu Shizi held his beloved's little hand, his heart was beautiful, his palm was gently rubbed a few times, and he pulled Shen Yafei forward, the corners of his mouth quietly raised.
Seeing the affectionate appearance of Xu Shizi, the girls in the capital began to be nymphomaniac again, looking at the intimate backs of Shen Yafei and Xu Shizi, their eyes were full of envy and jealousy, and their minds automatically converted Shen Yafei led by Xu Shizi into themselves, their faces were confused and intoxicated.
When Princess Pi saw this scene, she was very proud, took the wrist of Princess Li, held her head high in front of the girl in the capital, and walked over slowly.
