Chapter 245: Discussion
Listening to the arrival of Shen Wenwen by the eunuch at the door, Xie Yuan's gloomy eyes suddenly lit up, flicked his sleeves, and signaled to bring him in.
"His Royal Highness the Prince." Shen Wenwen saluted respectfully according to the usual practice.
With one jaw head, the two looked at each other.
"Come on, why don't you show Shen Gongzi tea."
As soon as the words fell, Shen Wenwen was led to a seat by the palace maid and sat down.
He hesitantly took the teacup and took a sip.
"Recently, there has been a slight change inside and outside the court, and Shen Gongzi will not be unaware."
Xie Yuan bluntly stated his purpose, and his sharp gaze stared directly at Shen Wenwen's expression.
"I don't know what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince means?" Shen Wenwen planned to pretend to be stupid, and vaguely guessed something.
"You have a close relationship with Xie Shiyun, if you can help me, it will naturally be great." Xie Yuan tapped his fingertips on the table, revealing a meaningful smile: "If you can take the opportunity to come up with Xie Shiyun's plan, you will definitely not be given a share of the knighthood when the time comes." ”
In the face of Xie Yuan's pure temptation, Shen Wenwen was unmoved.
In his eyes, glory, wealth, fame, fortune and status are not important at all.
"You should know who sits on the dragon chair at the end. If you don't stand in the team well, and then you will fall into the end of the distribution frontier, it will be too late to regret it. Xie Yuan carefully analyzed the pros and cons with him, hoping that the other party would submit to him and stop doing some useless struggles.
"Your Highness, please invite someone else for this matter." Shen Wenwen was silent for a moment, but still gave his own answer.
No matter what Xie Yuan asked him to do, his only bottom line was Xie Shiyun.
"Shen Gongzi, it's just a woman, grab a handful of them at will in the capital, why do you want to hang yourself on a tree?" Xie Yuan saw that he was a lover, and it was inevitable to persuade him.
Before, he wouldn't have had to worry about this kind of thing.
But now this woman is starting to be restless, and if he doesn't stop it, it is very likely to threaten his position.
He's not a fool, how could he not know what's wrong with this.
"Your Highness, if there is nothing else, Shen will retire first......"
"Shen Wenwen, don't toast or eat!" Xie Yuan called him by his first name and slapped the small square table in front of him.
The palace maids and eunuchs who were standing outside were so frightened that their bodies trembled three times, and they didn't dare to look into the room.
Although it is not that he has not seen the prince get angry on weekdays, but now in front of the prince, Shen Wenwen is definitely the first.
Shen Wenwen got up and moved slightly, glanced at the angry Xie Yuan, still stood up straight and gritted his teeth, "Your Highness, Shen can do other things by himself, and she is alone, I hope Your Highness will not embarrass me." ”
"Embarrassed? A mere woman who tries in vain to destroy the relationship network that Prince Ben has worked so hard to build! How can something that is beyond its own strength not get rid of this trouble in the heart! Xie Yuan gritted his teeth in anger, eager to come forward to solve that woman himself.
But the only reason left was to let him force himself to calm down.
Since Shen Wenwen toasted and didn't eat and drink, there was no need for him to be polite to him again and again.
"Shen Wenwen, at the moment, you have two paths, you can choose. The first is to submit to me and try your best to inform me of Xie Shiyun's plan. The second is to see with my own eyes that I was dismembered by five horses! ”
As the most brutal torture in the court, the cruel scene is well known. To date, not a single person has survived such torture.
In other words, the whipping of corpses.
Shen Wenwen clenched his fists, knowing that Xie Yuan wanted to force him in this way and submit to him.
However, he didn't have the slightest intention of wanting Xie Yuan to succeed.
"If you want to kill or chop, listen to it. Shen will never say a word! He was sonorous and powerful every word, for fear that Xie Yuan would not hear clearly, and he was still staring at the other party's eyes.
This Shen Wenwen is really a guy who doesn't know what to do!
Xie Yuan had a flash of inspiration, and the corners of his mouth suddenly hooked up a meaningful smile.
Regarding the appearance of Shen Wenwen, Xie Shiyun was slightly surprised.
Counting the days, she was busy with affairs during this time, and she didn't seem to see Shen Wenwen much.
"Why are you here?"
Shen Wenshu barely evoked a smile, and stopped talking.
Until now, Xie Yuan's warning still echoed in his mind.
The words were beautiful, and the words in his heart tugged at his crumbling heart.
He clenched his fist, loosened, and subconsciously took a step back.
What could he do for the woman in front of him who knew nothing.
"Shiyun, I ......"
Before he could speak, a shout from outside the door interrupted their conversation.
"The Queen has summoned you."
Shen Wenwen's heart tightened, and he looked at Xie Shiyun's back as he left with a complicated expression.
"If you have something to talk to me about, I'll talk about it when I get back."
"I'm afraid you'll have something." He muttered to himself and silently poured himself a cup of hot tea.
Xie Shiyun, under the leadership of the palace maid, came to the queen's bedroom.
"The Queen." Xie Shiyun saluted, and the queen hurriedly called someone to ask her to sit down.
"Today, this palace is looking for you because I have something important to discuss with you."
As soon as the words fell, the queen's eyes scanned the door vigilantly, and as soon as she raised her hand, she motioned for everyone to withdraw.
"In the past few days, this palace has been fighting with the prime minister, which has given him a lot of hardship. But his old fox, after all, has stayed in the court for too long, and he is always scheming. I have to force this palace to meet him. ”
The queen told Xie Shiyun what she had done in the past few days.
Xie Shiyun listened intently, interjecting from time to time.
"The dog jumps over the wall in a hurry, and the rabbit bites when he is in a hurry." She saw that the queen was angry, and responded to her words.
"Shiyun, although Bengong seized the opportunity and gave him a blow, he would never give up so well." The queen raised her hand and rubbed her eyebrows.
Half of his henchmen have been cleared in the court, but it does not hinder the prime minister's position in the court.
Above one person, under ten thousand.
With his own rights, there are still many opportunities for him to make small moves behind his back.
"Just yesterday, he bought the person in the imperial dining room to poison the dinner in the palace, but fortunately, the palace left a hand and tried it with a silver needle in person. Otherwise, today, I am afraid you will not see this palace. ”
A sneer tugged at the corner of her mouth, and the hand hidden under her sleeve clenched into a fist.
Fighting this tough battle with the prime minister will not end in a while.
If they are not careful, they are very likely to fall into each other's traps.
"Queen Mother, the more times like this, we must be more careful. Maybe they're going to do something shady. ”
Xie Shiyun's face was serious, her right hand was held on the tea handle, and she didn't hold it up for a long time.
"It's really the other way around!" The more the queen thought about it, the more upset she became, and she always felt that the prime minister would carry out something behind her back, an unspeakable secret operation.
