However, after the three little girls left, the two monarchs and ministers in the side hall stopped talking.

This had never been done before, at least not between Emperor Chengping and the Marquis of Huaiyang, so that the atmosphere in the room was a little gloomy, and the internal officials inside and outside were even more condensed and quiet.

Xie Chunshan stood there, standing with his hands down, not moving,

Everyone is waiting.

I don't know how long it was quiet, and finally waited for Emperor Chengping to speak: "Xie Qing also thinks now, there are demons and evil in this capital?" ”

The tone and attitude are all ordinary, but it is this normal, which makes people listen to it, but they feel even more scary.

It's the internal officials, and they don't even dare to breathe.

Xie Chunshan responded: "Your Majesty knows that ministers never believe in ghosts and gods, if you talk about demons and evils, it is better to say that they are just some races that are not mine, and they will not be the climate after all, otherwise why hide your head and tail like this?" He even wants to assassinate the minister's daughter? According to the ministers, I am afraid that more people are making trouble through the evil words. ”

The tone was gentle, without nervousness or panic, but the last sentence was not just about Xie Xiaoyu.

Emperor Chengping understood in his heart, smiled indifferently, and asked rhetorically: "In this way, Xie Qing thinks that they are not to be afraid?" ”

Xie Chunshan did not hesitate, and said directly: "There are people with extraordinary abilities in the world, and they have their own ability to subdue demons and eliminate demons, and there are such real capable people around Your Majesty, and the ministers also respect them, but these things are not the duty of the ministers, so naturally they should not say more." But now, all kinds of things only make the minister feel that the people who take advantage of the evil and evil to make things are more fearful and hateful than the demon itself. ”

Emperor Chengping pondered what he said, and when he saw that he didn't want to speak, he said: "I understand, you are also tired, and go home to rest for a few days, after the first month, I have something to tell you." ”

"Yes." Xie Chunshan arched his hand, and he was about to leave after regressing.

Don't argue, don't say much, as if you don't know about the recent situation in the capital.

Emperor Chengping waited for him to walk out of the side hall door, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, and called: "Spring Mountain." ”

The internal official outside immediately said: "Master Hou, Your Majesty will pass you on." ”

Xie Chunshan immediately returned, still standing in Fang Cai's position: "Yes, the minister is here, Your Majesty, please command." ”

"Don't you have anything to explain or defend with me?" Emperor Chengping asked very calmly, as if he was chattering, as if he didn't realize the murderous intent in these words.

Xie Chunshan listened, but smiled.

"Your Majesty, if the minister really makes His Majesty feel that he needs to explain or justify something, then the minister has done something wrong, and he doesn't have to explain or justify, the minister only needs to reflect on himself and let His Majesty punish him."

Emperor Chengping didn't expect him to say such a sentence, and after being stunned for a moment, he laughed angrily: "Are you blocking my mouth?" ”

The officials felt that this was not good, and immediately held their breath.

"No, it is the minister who understands, the minister's mind, the sun, the moon, the sky and His Majesty know," Xie Chunshan said, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing, "That's it." ”

This sentence is said in the heart of Emperor Chengping.

Emperor Chengping looked at the general who was kneeling in front of him, who had been fighting for himself for many years, and suddenly found that he was also a person with white hair.

When I first met him, he was still a young man who was not afraid of tigers when he was a newborn calf, and he was full of spirit, as if he would never get old.

And now, in the end, it is also old.

They are all old.

The scale in Emperor Chengping's heart was even more biased to Xie Chunshan's side.

As he said, those who take advantage of evil spirits are more terrible than the evil spirits themselves.

Those who use those gossips to create rumors and try to divide the monarch and ministers are more terrible than the rumors themselves.

But the most terrible thing is that the monarch and the minister are really separated.

He should have believed in him more than anyone else.

Finally, Emperor Chengping's heart was knotted a lot, and he sighed and said:

"Stand down, I know your heart, and I am willing to believe in you."

"Yes, Your Majesty, the minister will retire." Xie Chunshan said, got up and withdrew from the side hall.

……

After Xie Chunshan walked out of the side hall, he found that it was already evening, and the remnant sun was like blood on top of this majestic palace, and the aura of slaughter was suddenly born.

His undershirt was already wet with sweat, and the feeling in his heart for the rest of his life made him smile bitterly.

From today onwards, I'm afraid some things will be different.

He has a lot of political enemies, he knows but doesn't care, and with those political enemies, he can also reassure Emperor Chengping.

The previous words about his rebellion would pop up from time to time, but Emperor Chengping would never listen to him, nor would he ask him to explain, but this time, it was different.

The rumors spread by those people through the matter of the Spirit Turtle Bridge did touch the heart of Emperor Chengping, and the shattering of trust was only in an instant.

But Xie Chunshan understands that if it weren't for the so-called "river god in the world", he was afraid that the affairs in southern Xinjiang would not be settled so easily.

He thought for a moment, sighed, and stepped down the steps.

I couldn't think of the gods and ghosts he didn't like in his life, and he didn't want to pay attention to the affairs of the Xuanmen, but today, he almost lost his life because of such things.

Ridiculous, but not ridiculous.

As soon as he walked down the steps, he saw Yu Heng coming from there, and after seeing him, he arched his hand and said:

"Master Hou."

Xie Chunshan hurriedly returned the salute: "His Royal Highness Sixth has just returned to the palace today, why hasn't he rested yet?" ”

"Father's summons." Yu Heng said.

Xie Chunshan understood that it was probably for Zhao Nan'er's injury, so he nodded: "Yes, Your Highness, go quickly, Your Majesty is still in the side hall now." ”

Yu Heng smiled: "Yes, Master Hou doesn't have to worry about Ling's niece's injury. It's a matter of Ling's daughter, so Master Hou should pay attention to it. ”

After that, it was another salute, and he went up the stairs and went to the side hall.

“？？” Xie Chunshan frowned slightly, looked back at Yu Heng's back, and didn't understand why he suddenly told Xie Xiaoyu about it.

What does it mean to hear this, as if you didn't know it today?

Xie Chunshan was confused at the moment, and he really couldn't understand the meaning of this newcomer to the palace.

It's not the time to think about this, so let's go back and see home.

……

Over there, Xie Chunshan was thinking about his family, and in this room, the Huaiyang Hou Mansion had already turned into a pot of porridge when he heard about the accident.

First, news came that Xie Xiaoyu's carriage was assassinated, and both the family and the coachman died.

Then he said that Xie Xiaoyu and Zhao Nan'er were gone.

It was easy for Bi Tao and Hua'er to be sent back, but they said that not only was Zhao Nan'er injured, but also summoned to the palace together with Xie Xiaoyu.

Mrs. Zhao and Weng only thought that the child was safe, and kept chanting Buddha, only Zhao's heart sank suddenly, suspecting that things were not good.

At this time, someone came to report again: "Madam, Vice General Liu brought a son surnamed Ouyang to the front hall, saying that he was here to treat Miss Biao's injuries." ”

"Huh?" Zhao was completely stunned.
