Chapter 641: Gaining Trust
Tan Qingxuan swallowed, wondering how to explain......
This explanation is too crucial for her now!
First, if you are a little careless in your words, you will be in danger, even if you are a daughter of a relative in southern Xinjiang, I am afraid that you will not be able to save yourself. Second, Dan Qingxuan was thinking about how much he had to say about Meng Jiaochen.
Her purpose was not to bring down Meng Jiaochen, nor to let the emperor arrest Meng Jiaochen back immediately, but just to assist the emperor and let Meng Jiaochen ascend to the throne as soon as possible.
If the former emperor could order himself to go and find Meng Jiaochen, it would be excellent.
But fortunately, the emperor's reaction was okay, but he had a cold face, and he was actually willing to listen to Tan Qingxuan's explanation.
"The emperor is angry, Xuan'er just met the prince of the suburbs when she was in southern Xinjiang before, at that time Xuan'er didn't know that Meng Jiaochen was the prince of the suburbs, and a lot of things happened in the middle, until later, by chance, Xuan'er married to Beihuan, and only knew about ......it in recent days" After a while, Danqing Xuan spoke nervously.
"What is Chen'er doing in Southern Xinjiang?" The Emperor was puzzled.
For so many years, Chen'er, is he living alone in southern Xinjiang......
Listening to Dan Qingxuan's tone, it doesn't seem like he's lying.
Anyway, if Concubine Xuan is really deceiving people, the next panic to make up is not so simple.
Thinking like this, the emperor had some faith in what Dan Qingxuan said, and he glanced at Dan Qingxuan and motioned for her to continue.
"Back to the emperor, the suburban prince was alone in southern Xinjiang, selling some calligraphy and painting for a living, at that time Xuan'er liked to travel in micro-clothes, and only felt that the suburban prince was really interesting, so he would often patronize the business of the suburban prince......"
Tan Qingxuan was very satisfied with the emperor's reaction and continued.
This sentence is true, Meng Jiaochen at that time was just a triangular cat kung fu, he dared to set up a stall to sell calligraphy and paintings in the downtown of southern Xinjiang, if it wasn't for Dan Qingxuan secretly taking care of his business, he would have bought some from time to time, I'm afraid this Meng Jiaochen would have been unable to survive in southern Xinjiang for a long time.
"The emperor is angry, at that time, Xuan'er really didn't know that that person was the prince of the suburbs."
Seeing that the emperor's brows were furrowed and his expression was solemn, Dan Qingxuan thought that he had accidentally said something wrong, and explained again and again.
But he still cares about Meng Jiaochen, after listening to these explanations, whether he believes it or not, in fact, he has already forgiven Dan Qingxuan.
Just now he listened not only to explain, but also to the life of his own son, which he has never set foot in in the past few years!
Tan Qingxuan babbled a little more, and it was about how Meng Jiaochen was in southern Xinjiang......
The emperor listened very fascinated.
"That calligraphy and painting, Concubine Xuan still has it with me now." The first emperor interrupted Dan Qingxuan's words and asked.
Tan Qingxuan hurriedly nodded.
I didn't bring all of them here, but I liked some of them, and I took them when I came to the North Ring Road.
"Concubine Xuan, can you take it and let me take a look?" The first emperor saw that Dan Qingxuan nodded, and he was ecstatic for a while.
Hearing Chen'er's story and looking at Chen'er's calligraphy and paintings, the first emperor felt that he was closer to his little prince.
Although the calligraphy and painting are crooked, not large, and there is no momentum, the emperor can feel it, this calligraphy and painting, Meng Jiaochen wrote it with extra care......
He picked it up lightly with one hand, and stroked it with the other, as if he had returned to his youth, when he was a father, he was teaching young Meng Jiaochen how to write with a pen.
After looking at the calligraphy and painting for a long time, the emperor suddenly raised his head, looked at Dan Qingxuan, gradually calmed down in his mind, and regained some reason.
At this time, Dan Qingxuan didn't know, and still smiled faintly, looking at the calligraphy and painting in the emperor's hand.
"Then how did Concubine Xuan know later! Since returning to the North Loop, I have never talked about dust in front of people! The emperor put away the calligraphy and paintings and asked sharply.
"But that day...... Xuan'er was in the queen mother's room and saw the portrait of the prince in the suburbs. Tan Qingxuan said cautiously.
Fortunately, I really saw it in the queen mother's room, otherwise I really don't know how to end it.
"Portrait ......" The emperor raised his head and looked at the upper beam of the imperial study, muttering incessantly.
The Queen Mother is worried about Chen'er, and she is also very worried.
It's just that many times, the queen mother is afraid that the emperor will be sad.
"I see......," the Emperor sighed deeply.
Tan Qingxuan only felt that it had only been so long that the emperor looked a lot older.
"Since you and Chen'er used to be such good friends, do you know where Chen'er is now?" The emperor spoke slowly, and finally asked the most critical question.
Dan Qingxuan frowned.
She naturally knew that if she told the emperor that she knew Meng Jiaochen, the emperor would definitely ask about Meng Jiaochen's whereabouts.
But at this moment, she hesitated.
She was hesitating to tell the emperor that Meng Jiaochen was Bai Lao's identity.
In this way, after all, Bai Lao was also brought into the palace by Lin Zuiliu at the beginning, and the emperor blamed her, she couldn't get out of it, so Liao Luan naturally couldn't hide from it.
It's a win-win-win-win thing to think about......
But thinking of Meng Jiaochen's resolute words in his heart, Dan Qingxuan couldn't help but feel heartache.
Last time, I was drunk, and I accidentally and unconsciously said that I leaked my mouth, so that Feng Xiaohan knew the news that Meng Jiaochen was Bai Lao, and he hadn't had time to explain it to Meng Jiaochen yet......
If he told the emperor today in a sober state, then the matter would be even more unclear.
In that case, even if Meng Jiaochen ascends to the throne in the future, there must always be an insurmountable gap between her and him!
"That's it, I know that Chen'er must have a grudge against me in my heart, and I don't force you to say it, presumably you are friendly with Chen'er, and it will be difficult for you to betray Chen'er."
The first emperor spoke, interrupting Dan Qingxuan's thoughts.
"If Chen'er knows, I'm afraid she will be unhappy."
The first emperor looked at Qingxuan and hesitated, and he didn't open his mouth for such a long time, but he stopped it.
From the bottom of his heart, he hoped that Liao Luan and the others could be one step ahead of Imperial Doctor An and learn the whereabouts of Chen'er.
After all, in that way, it would be possible to save Chen'er's life after the age of twenty-five!
"Hmm."
Tan Qingxuan was a little surprised that the emperor didn't delve into it anymore, but he didn't ask anything more, just responded lightly and nodded slightly.
In my heart, I am endlessly lonely.
The emperor still understands Meng Jiaochen's temperament, but it's too late.
White House.
"Let's go." Mu regretted knocking Meng Jiaochen's door.
"Why do you wake up so early?" Meng Jiaochen opened his eyes in a daze and opened the door sleepily.
Mu regretted that he was already neatly dressed and cleaned up.
"Why don't you care at all!" Mu regretted seeing him like this, and was anxious.
Meng Jiaochen rubbed his eyes, opened his mouth, and did not speak.
He was naturally anxious, but when it came to what Nanzhao was going to do next, he hadn't thought it out yet, or rather, what they should say when they saw Liao Luan, and Meng Jiaochen himself hadn't thought it through.
I was going to discuss it with Mu Xi in the morning, and I will set off in the afternoon, but looking at Mu Xi's current posture, I'm afraid I won't leave in the morning.
In this case, it is good to save some time on the road and discuss it in the car.
"You...... This face? ”
Meng Jiaochen noticed that Mu regretted that today's face was so overwhelming, and he couldn't take his eyes off the people who looked at it.
I am usually used to getting along with her, but suddenly having such a face made Meng Jiaochen feel uncomfortable.
Moreover, this is usual, Mu regrets that he has become ugly, and today I don't know what is going on, which is abnormal.
"Just practice the disguise technique, what a fuss, look at your little bit of talent." Mu regretted rolling her eyes at him.
Meng Jiaochen sighed, and sure enough, as soon as the "beauty" in front of him opened his mouth, it was still the same as before.
"Are you ready?" He asked.
"When you're ready, it's time for you to get in the car, and breakfast is also wrapped up for us to eat in the car!" Mu regretted happily carrying breakfast and urging Meng Jiaochen.
Meng Jiaochen was very surprised.
I just got up a little late, and this girl actually took care of everything.
Meng Jiaochen has been used to being alone and rough over the years, especially during the period when he was recuperating by the mountains and lakes in southern Xinjiang, he almost didn't eat for three or four days, and occasionally ate some fruit or something.
It's not that there is no food to eat, but it is a period of cultivation, so you either eat the best or you don't eat.
At that time, he didn't have any high-quality ingredients, and even if he did, he didn't have the effort and heart to make the ingredients bring out the ultimate taste.
So I just made do with it day by day, hungry.
Now suddenly everything was taken care of by Mu Regret, and he carefully prepared a steaming breakfast that he loved to eat.
Meng Jiaochen's heart can be described as mixed.
To exaggerate a little, he even felt that this warmth was almost comparable to mother's love.
"Why are you stunned, eat. It's cold for a while. ”
Mu regretted watching Meng Jiaochen staring at the breakfast in his hand in a daze, and couldn't help but tug his arm.
"Uh-oh." Meng Jiaochen came back to his senses suddenly, uncovered the kraft paper wrapped in the big bun, and took a hard bite.
"Satisfied! Let's go. He smiled happily at the wood and got into the carriage.
"In this way, this white mansion, the prince's mansion, is empty."
Sitting in the carriage, Mu regret suddenly sighed.
"So, it's been such a short time, and I'm still a little reluctant to North Loop?" Meng Jiaochen asked unequivocally while eating.
But after a while, seeing that Mu regretted not answering, but with a faint sadness on his face, Meng Jiaochen suddenly stopped eating.
"You don't have a home in the North Ring, what's so reluctant, I haven't said I can't bear to Baifu yet!"
Seeing Dan Qingxuan like this, Meng Jiaochen was uncomfortable, and spoke again.
