Five days have passed, and the days in Chong'an Mausoleum are like idle clouds and wild cranes. On weekdays, He Jingying went to the west side to ask for some vegetables, and guarded the hens that Old Man Mo bought back from the town to lay eggs. Xiao Lian went to the nearby stream to touch a few fish and chop wood to carry water. Life is not sad.

On this day, Xiao Lian was diligently chopping wood. A person outside the courtyard shouted, "Dharma body, can you do it?" ”。

Xiao Lian poked his head out, and Xiao Chen stood outside the courtyard. Xiao Chen has been on duty in front of the emperor for a long time, and he is meticulous in both dressing and dressing. Looking at it this time, Xiao Chen hadn't even changed out of Yulin Supervisor's uniform. Dressed like this, the food box Xiao Chen was carrying in his hand looked a little abrupt, quite a taste of a rough man's girl's heart.

"Why is Commander Xiao here?" It is still a pleasure to meet an acquaintance in a place like Chong'an Mausoleum, where birds and beasts are company.

Xiao Chen put the food box on the table, looked at the humble room, and sighed: "Law body, this can be wronged by you." ”

Xiao Lian pulled over a chair and sat down: "What are you wronged about?" Isn't that everything? Where is it worse than the palace? ”

Xiao Chen smiled: "It's good if you think about it." Others say that you are pampered and pampered. I can't see it at all. ”

"Commander Xiao, you're not just here to make fun of me today, are you?"

Xiao Chen also pulled out a chair and sat down: "I came to see you on the order of the emperor." ”

"Your Majesty?"

Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Lian with some hatred: "Law Body, you said you." The crown prince died, in such a sensitive period, why do you have to deal with those courtiers? Do you know what those old ministers have to say about you these days? ”

"What did you say about me?"

"Say that you don't pay attention to etiquette, you have no social responsibility in your heart, and it is difficult to take on a big responsibility."

Xiao Lian sneered: "I'm a prince, what kind of society do I have in my heart?" That's what the emperor and the crown prince should do. If you want to be a big responsibility, and the prince is going to be a big responsibility, what does it have to do with me? ”

Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Lian with a solemn expression: "Law body, you are the eldest son, the ancestor is ......."

"The eldest son succeeds to the throne?" Xiao Lian smiled: "Don't you ask my second uncle what he thinks?" ”

Xiao Chen frowned and said: "In the past two days, after the ministers of the court and the central government returned from Chong'an Mausoleum, they made a proposal to the emperor and proposed to make Xiao Yunying the crown prince. The folds of the above table were handed to the emperor one after another. The emperor pressed it down. ”

He Jingying walked in with hot tea and a few newly made taro cakes. "Commander Xiao, there is nothing here in Chong'an Mausoleum, only these coarse teas, I hope Commander Xiao will not dislike it."

Xiao Chen saluted and said, "Yanfu thanked the princess. ”

"Commander Xiao, you just said that the courtiers proposed to make Xiao Yunying the crown prince, do you know what the emperor thinks about this matter?"

Xiao Chen shook his head: "I don't know what the emperor thinks." The emperor of those concerts has been suppressed, and in the past two days, he still has the intention of using the five kings Xiao Yun, not only commending Xiao Yun greatly, but also letting Xiao Yun enter the cabinet deliberations. Xiao Chen patted Xiao Lian's shoulder: "Law body, you still have to find a way to come back soon." Now that the situation is unknown, you can still fight. ”

Xiao Lian smiled coldly: "Is the position of the prince so contentious?" I think the rich prince is quite good. Look at my third uncle Xiao Yunchang, isn't it good for him to do that? The wife is on the side, the wealth is in the hand, and if you don't deal with anyone, you can scold if you want, it's not good. ”

Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment: "Law Body, are you serious about this?" Let's not mention that Xiao Yunchang is a fierce woman next to him, you really don't have any feelings for Xiao Yunchang? ”

"What?"

"If it weren't for Xiao Yunchang's accusation that the first prince raised the White Deer Rui Beast in the Dongtian Courtyard, the first prince would not have suddenly become seriously ill."

Xiao Chen reminded He Jingying of this, but she remembered this matter. The first prince mentioned that it was because of the position of the prince that he fell ill. Could it be related to this? But if the person who harmed the prince was Xiao Ziqing, why did Xiao Ziqing help Xiao Lian on the altar the day before yesterday?

He Jingying asked Xiao Chen, "Commander Xiao, do you know how the rift between Xiao Yunchang and Xiao Yunying came about?" ”

Xiao Chen said: "I have always been puzzled. It was in the year when the former prince was reprimanded and fell ill, just when the courtiers thought that Xiao Yunchang would fall to Xiao Yunying, Xiao Yunchang and Xiao Yunying had a bad relationship. And almost every time it was picked by Xiao Yunchang. As long as the two get together, whether it is Chinese New Year's Eve or Mid-Autumn Festival, there will always be a quarrel. Xiao Yunchang originally listened to his wife the most, but Yunchang and Yun Ying quarreled, but Princess Luling did not persuade him at all. ”

Xiao Chen has been by the emperor's side for more than ten years, and Xiao Chen knows the most about the big and small affairs in the court, and Zhu Shou in the palace is what Xiao Chen knows best. If Xiao Chen doesn't know, it is estimated that others will not understand.

Xiao Chen opened the food box, and there was an eight-treasure duck, a few plates of dim sum from the palace, and a bowl of peach gum bird's nest in the food box: "I said so many things that I forgot about it." This is what Fan Guifei asked me to bring, as well as the golden silk blood swallow prepared for the princess. ”

He Jingying didn't like bird's nest so much, and the eight-treasure duck looked a little more attractive. But since Fan Guifei specially asked Xiao Chen to bring it, she still has to drink it. He Jingying took the bird's nest and smelled it, perhaps because it was a little cold, the bird's nest was a little fishy.

He Jingying took the bird's nest and asked Xiao Lian, "Do you want to make up for it?" ”

Xiao Lian hurriedly shook his head: "This is what you women eat, what's the matter with me eating?" ”

He Jingying pouted, the door slammed, and was suddenly pushed open vigorously. Xiao Flin and Yan Xiaodao stepped into the house in a panic.

He Jingying was stunned: "Why did you come together?" ”

Xiao Fulin's face was a little ugly: "The Yan Catcher I met on the stone road came together. ”

Yan Xiaodao's face was more ugly than Xiao Fulin's, almost pale. I don't know if it's because of the cold or for some other reason, Yan Xiaodao's hands trembled slightly, he was even thinner than when he was in prison, his beard flew randomly on his face, and he limped when he walked.

"Yan Catcher, you?" He Jingying looked at Yan Xiaodao strangely.

Yan Xiaodao looked at He Jingying, and then at Xiao Chen who was standing aside, his face became even paler. "Princess......

"What's wrong with you?" He Jingying asked.

Yan Xiaodao took a deep breath and suddenly pounced, He Jingying was startled and jumped up. The bowl of bird's nest in his hand had already been brought over by Yan Xiaodao. Yan Xiaodao picked up the bird's nest, took a few gulps, and then ripped off the duck leg of the eight-treasure duck and stuffed it into his mouth, and then picked up one of the small dishes and stuffed it into his mouth.

Yan Xiaodao suddenly burst out, and even Xiao Chen didn't react, until he saw that a table of dishes was all messed up by Yan Xiaodao, and he couldn't help but say angrily: "Presumptuous!" This is a gift from the king, how can you be allowed to do this? ”

Xiao Chen lifted Yan Xiaodao up, Yan Xiaodao frowned, and the body that Xiao Chen held in his hand twisted, and black blood flowed out of his nose.
