In the Qingxin Palace, it was very quiet, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while, Manager Li looked left and right, and after receiving the signal of the Emperor, he said: "Master Yan, forgive me for taking the liberty of being presumptuous, I don't know who you are and where you come from?"

"I don't dare to call myself a master, idlers are used to traveling all over the world, and there is no home everywhere."

Master Ran took a sip of tea on the side, with a faint smile on his face, but praised in his heart, worthy of being a great sacrifice, this answer was seamless and full of Zen.

Xiao Ji raised his eyes and glanced at Zhan Li, and his answer was both surprised and natural, which showed that he was really a transparent and worldly person.

Manager Li didn't ask this question, he didn't get any useful information at all, and he knew that it was not easy to talk about it, so he turned to Master Ran and said: "Master Ran, I'm very curious, how did Master Ran and Master Zan become friends for the year?"

"Oh, hehe, the poor monk thought about it many years ago", Master Zhiran put down the teacup, as if he was reminiscing, with a gentle smile on his face, and continued: "The past is the past, I am afraid that it will not be able to be explained for a while, this time it is also due to fate, and the son can come to Xiangguo Temple, and he can have a long talk, discuss the law and enlightenment, it is really the creation of the poor monk."

Manager Li responded with a smile, but he was extremely depressed in his heart, and he asked in vain, so he could only go back and let people secretly investigate.

Xiao Ji looked at it, from his expression, it can be determined that he agrees with this Zizi very much, it can be said that he is sympathetic, so analyzed, this Zhanzi should be a person from the Buddhist family, but he can put forward a profound and insightful policy for the government in the blessing book, presumably I have a good understanding of the folk customs and agricultural and commercial decrees of my free country, and he is really an extraordinary talent. But if I'm a free-spirited person, why haven't I heard of it? If you are not a person from the free country, it is naturally best if you can keep it, if you can't, it's a pity.

Xiao Ji's eyes turned to Yu Li, and he always felt like a mystery, and people couldn't help but want to explore it.

Zhan Li already felt the eyes of Xiao Ji, and there was a little speculation about the meaning in his eyes, but everything should not be rushed, the more you want to get closer, you must know how to garrison and retreat, deliberately it often makes people suspicious, and natural penetration can penetrate into the hearts of the people, so quietly drink tea, and do not say much.

"Master Yan, he is a man of few words", Manager Li inadvertently threw out another sentence.

"It's not that he doesn't say much, but I don't know what to say here", and he didn't pretend to be profound, and answered the situation truthfully.

The detached words broke the game, so that Xiaoji suddenly had a new understanding of him, and felt that he was actually a lover of personality, frank and casual, and not pretentious.

"Hehe", Mr. Li said with a smile: "Master Yan has been in the country for many days, tell me how you feel about the terroir of the country"?

Hearing Manager Li's question, the corners of his mouth twitched with a smile that was not easy to understand.

"It's only been three days since I came to Xiaoyao, and I don't know much about the terroir of Xiaoyao, so I can't say how I feel. But to see the people living and working in peace and contentment, the market is bustling and lively, this Xiangguo Temple is full of incense, the people's hearts are good, and there is a peaceful image everywhere, it can be seen that there is a way to rule, there are virtuous ministers inside, and the country has a bright monarch."

deviated from these words, without losing the truth, and without praising the merits of one person, he slapped a sycophant in the overall evaluation of Xiaoyaoguo.

When Xiao Ji heard Zhan Li's words, his heart was naturally happy, firstly, for the prosperity of the Xiaoyao Country, and secondly, for the recognition of the Xiaoyao Country, the stronger the idea of wanting to accept the Xiaoyao Country.

Seeing that Xiaoji's face was happy, and he knew that he had obtained the Sacred Heart, and his heart was also a little peaceful, he asked more boldly: "Master Zhan, it's good to travel all over the world, and you will eventually have a place to return, I wonder if you will consider Xiaojing?"

Xiao Ji glanced at Manager Li, and felt that this was a good question, so he raised his eyes and looked at Zhan Li, but he was looking forward to his answer.

After listening to the words, he thought about it for a while, and replied: "Things that are too far away in the future, and I don't want to think about it for the time being, but for now, I am willing to stay in Xiangguo Temple for a little longer, and it is also a great blessing in my life to be able to comprehend the classics with Master Zhiran, and I can't ask for it."

"So, how long will the master stay?" Mr. Li asked.

If you answer that you are willing to stay in Xiaoyao, it means that you have something to do, and as an idler like yourself, there should not be too many mundane things, so she said: "It's not good to say, it's okay for a few months, the world will go naturally, practice is not obsessed, and you are at ease in your heart."

After listening to the answer, he was even more relieved, and it was expected that this sentence had entered the ears of Xiao Ji, so far, Yu Li has completely given Xiao Ji a good impression, if there is no accident, just a little light, it will be a matter of course.

Xiao Ji was very satisfied with Yan Li's answer, looked at Manager Li, and signaled that he didn't need to ask.

Seeing this, Master Ran changed the topic and talked to Xiaoji about the preparations for praying for blessings and some taboos for praying for blessings. During the whole process, Xiao Ji consciously or unintentionally asked Zhan Li's opinion, and Zhan Li had a good grasp of the proportion, and answered calmly and appropriately.

It was nearly noon, and the master of Ran asked people to prepare a meal, and left Xiao Ji to eat, originally intended to let Yan Li sit at the same table, but he was rejected by Yan Li, but seeing the news of Yan Li's secret transmission, he realized that he was in a hurry for quick success, so he explained the situation to Xiao Ji, and sure enough, Xiao Ji was not only not annoyed, but felt that Yan Li's nature was unrestrained, and he was a clear person.

During the banquet, Xiao Ji asked some things about the separation, and motioned to Manager Li to write them down one by one, but after remembering them for a long time, there was really not much useful information.

After the meal, Xiao Ji returned to the Summer Palace in Qiongyuan, and then told Manager Li to secretly investigate everything that had been left and reported it quickly.

In the afternoon, he came to the small courtyard of Zhan Li, and saw that Yan Ziyue was talking, so he walked straight over.

"High priest, can the poor monk be disturbed"?

"Master Ran, from today onwards, the master will call me a pant."

"Hehe, Zhanzi, it should be like this, it's the poor monk's negligence."

"Master, it's serious."

"Haozi, how do you feel about meeting His Majesty the Emperor today?"

"Thank you for your advice first, so that you can deal with it smoothly today."

"Hey, don't thank the poor monk, today's things are all due to the wisdom of the people, and the response is appropriate. According to the poor monk, His Majesty the Emperor will carefully verify everything about you in the future, especially what you and I say today."

"Hmm... Fortunately, he was prepared, and I believe he couldn't find out anything", Yu Li said, but he still had some worries in his heart.

"His Majesty the Emperor has always been suspicious, it's better to be safe, I have sent someone to inform Mrs. Su, and someone will arrange one or two in advance."

"The master is thoughtful, and he is grateful", and he bowed down.

"It's a lot of courtesy, this matter has nothing to do with you, so, it's a righteous act of Zhanzi, it should be the poor monk who thanked him", and he put his hands together to bow.

"Master, I can't help it", Yu Li helped him and said: "If this matter is successful, I am afraid that I will not be able to do it, and I hope that the master will take care of Yue'er one or two more."

"Naturally, the poor monk must do his best to protect Princess Ziyue."

"Father-in-law, I can protect myself", Yan Ziyue interjected.

"Yue'er...", Yan Li glanced at Yan Ziyue and motioned her not to say more.

"In this way, the poor monk went back first, and the son should also prepare as soon as possible."

"Okay...", Yan Li accompanied Master Ran out of the courtyard and watched him leave.

"Come in with me...", Yan Li called Yan Ziyue to go in when he returned to the hospital, and he told him a lot, but he said a lot of things, but the truth of everything, the sinister nature of people's hearts, the weight of the trade-off, and some of the situation of the royal family of Xiaoyao Kingdom, and then the behavior of the emperor, etc., everything that can be said has been said, I only hope that Yan Ziyue can listen to some of it.

Yan Ziyue also listened to it, not only did she remember it clearly, but she also figured out something in her mind while listening, and a plan to cooperate with Yan Li came out spontaneously, but it still needs to be considered carefully, of course, you can't talk to Yan Li.

On this seemingly calm afternoon, in some unbeknownst corners, a hatching conspiracy is beginning to unfold, plunging one person after another into danger, despair, and even death.

Seeing that it was about to fall at night, Xiao Huang came to the door of Xiao Yan's study again, and knocked for a long time but no one answered.

"Brother Jiu, haven't you ever come out?" Xiao Huang pulled a servant girl and asked.

"Back to the Thirteenth Prince, the Ninth Prince has never come out, and dinner is useless."

"Brother Jiu... Ninth Brother...", Xiao Huang knocked desperately on the door and called loudly.

Xiao Yan sat on the Taishi chair in front of the bookcase, curled up, handsome and haggard, it can be seen that the pain in his heart is overwhelming, and Yan Ziyue's words have been lingering in his ears, making him unable to escape.

"You... And you... Come here, knock the door open", Xiao Huang was really worried about Xiao Yan. Since the mother concubine was confined to Mingqiong Garden, she has been growing up with Xiao Yan over the years, and often secretly comes to Qiongyuan to visit her mother here. Xiao Huang knew that the reason why Xiao Yan was often moody, and sometimes he could become particularly terrible, was actually because he was full of worries and no one to discuss, so he had to be strong alone and bear it on his own, and he always liked to lock himself in the house for a few days and nights, but it had not been like this for a long time. There have been too many things happening in the past few days, Xiao Huang always has a bad premonition, and he is even more afraid, I really hope that someone can come to help Brother Jiu, and finally come to Brother Jiu for a month, he will definitely help Brother Jiu, and Brother Jiu still likes him so much, so no matter what means, he has to keep him.

The maidservants and eunuchs did not dare to knock on the door, so they could only stand outside the door and wait, Xiao Huang was also a little helpless, lying on the door, muttering: "Brother Jiu, open the door, I am Huang'er, I will be obedient in the future, and I will never run around again."

After a long time, the door was opened, Xiao Yan smiled gently, hugged Xiao Huang and said, "I'm sorry for worrying you."

"Brother Jiu, are you hungry"?

"Hungry... Walk... Eat something", when Xiao Yan walked down the steps with Xiao Huang in his arms, several maids had already gone to prepare.
