After saying goodbye to Xiao Qi, she went back to Huanxi Building, and she was absent for two months, but Huanxi Building didn't seem to have changed much.

The only thing that may have changed is that there are two more palace maids by her side, which is the first thing she did when she returned to Huanxilou.

The two newly promoted palace maids are none other than the secret guards who managed to infiltrate the palace before.

With these two secret guards present, it is more convenient to mobilize the secret guards outside the palace.

Xiao Han named them 'Ziluo' and 'Lan Ruo', and after two months, they have adapted quite to the identity of palace maids, and they can't see anything unusual in their gestures.

After dinner, she first completed the homework assigned by the Taishi, because the difficulty coefficient was too high, which made her particularly difficult for a while.

In the end, it was with the help of the two newly appointed palace maids that they completed their homework with difficulty.

Under her exclamation, Ziluo smiled: "This is not a difficult matter, we need to learn all kinds of knowledge in order to become a qualified secret guard since we were children.

Among them, it is necessary to learn not only martial arts, hidden weapons and poisons, but also camouflage.

Of course, if the master needs it, we also need to learn the scriptures, musical instruments and archery, and various etiquette.

In order to allow us to better assist you, we have learned all the above knowledge.

And, only all qualified people can stay and become your secret guards. ”

Hearing her words, Xiao Han thought of what he said to Dark One, and not only regretted it a little.

knew that Grandpa's requirements were so high, so she told Dark One that it was not impossible to lower her requirements.

If it is according to the current requirements, I think I will know that it is impossible to do it in the time she said!

I have to say that Grandpa was indeed prescient, if it weren't for his high requirements, it would be impossible to help her at this moment.

Thinking of Grandpa, she thought of what she promised Xiao Qi, and she instructed Ziluo: "Find a way to send a message to Dark One, let him go to Grandpa, and tell Grandpa that I want to see him." ”

"The slave understands."

She actually knew that Grandpa didn't want to return to the capital, and if he could, he would rather stay at the border for the rest of his life to defend against foreign enemies.

Because once he returns to Beijing, it means that he will be forced to get involved in the political struggle between the DPRK and China.

But his age is really not suitable to continue to stay at the border.

During the period when he returned to Beijing, except for the last dynasty, it can almost be regarded as a closed door.

The problem is that Grandpa wants to avoid the political struggle between the DPRK and China. But his son, that is, her second uncle, and now Qi Ziyang, the son of the Guogong Mansion, doesn't think so.

If it weren't for the fact that she sorted out the relationship between the DPRK and China during her illness, otherwise, she wouldn't have known that her second uncle had a close relationship with Wu Yanyu, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites!

Her second uncle has been in close contact with Wu Yanyu for several years, if Wu Yanyu is really related to the Xie family, then the Zhenguo Mansion may also become the Xie family's party in the future.

remembered that in her previous life, she went to beg her second uncle, but she was treated like that.

If after Grandpa's death, the second uncle took refuge in the Xie family, and his attitude towards her would be reasonable.

Of course, all this was just her suspicion, and even so, she had to avoid that situation as much as possible.

Since the Zhenguo Mansion has always been unable to escape the whirlpool of political struggle, it is better to become your own side from the beginning.

And the only way to do this is to turn the Zhenguo Mansion into a princeling while Grandpa is still alive!

Of course, whether you want to or not depends on Grandpa's own wishes.

That's why she asked her grandfather to meet and spread out the matter.

A few days later, she appeared in a small tea shop in the capital, and in the private room on the second floor, she saw her grandfather who she hadn't seen for a long time.

Milk Yan threw herself over like a forest, and the white-haired Zhenguo Gong smiled kindly: "It's all big girls, why are you still so frizzy!" ”

Xiao Han said coquettishly: "No matter how old I am, I am Grandpa's most beloved child." Grandpa, are you saying I'm right?! ”

Zhen Guogong said helplessly: "Yes, yes, no matter what Ah Han says, it is right." ”

The two ancestors and grandsons who hadn't seen each other for a long time talked about the old days, and it was Zhenguo Gong who spoke first, and his tone could not hide his worry: "Use the secret guard to ask Grandpa to come out to meet, but what happened?" ”

was about to get into the main topic, and her expression became serious, "I can't hide it, this time I asked Grandpa to meet because of His Royal Highness the Prince." She got straight to the point.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?!" Zhen Guogong wondered.

"I don't know if Grandpa knows that the emperor's uncle intends to let the prince enter the court, but Grandpa should know that the prince has no foundation in the court now..."

Although she didn't finish speaking, Zhen Guogong already understood the meaning of her words.

"Ah Han, you should know that the military power in my hands is what His Majesty fears the most, and once it involves the government, the Zhenguo Mansion is in danger." Zhenguo Gong was full of sorrow.

She knew Grandpa very well, and naturally understood his worries, but she didn't give up.

"Grandpa, this is not the same, the emperor's uncle's heir is only the crown prince."

After a pause, she continued: "You also know the situation in the court, instead of being wary of the crown prince, it is better to say that the emperor's uncle hopes to see the prince rise up and compete with the family!" ”

"You mean, the emperor is going to do something to the family?!"

She said in a low voice: "Now that the court is 'strong and weak', if this situation continues, it will threaten Your Majesty's rule." My Majesty probably will not allow such a thing to happen, and the entry of the crown prince into the court will be an opportunity to break the existing situation. ”

Zhen Guogong's attitude was somewhat relaxed by what he said just now, but he still had difficulty making up his mind, and she understood that it was time for the next dose of strong medicine.

She put the results of the Secret Guard's investigation in front of him, "You should probably take a look at this and make a decision." ”

"Bastard!" After reading it, he slapped the table angrily, obviously angry.

There is no other reason, all that is written on it is Qi Ziyang's secret dealings with the Wu Mansion and the Su family.

Zhenguo Gong has been an official for decades, although he has stayed at the border most of the time, which does not mean that he knows nothing about the government and politics, on the contrary, he has a very clear understanding of the current government and politics.

Therefore, after seeing the situation of his son's dealings with these two and several other families, he immediately understood the current situation.

He blushed with a face: "How dare he!" I told me a thousand times, but I didn't expect that this unfilial son would all be regarded as a deaf ear! ”

Xiao Han sighed: "Grandpa, don't be angry, presumably the second uncle didn't mean to." It's just that you should also know that now the four great families have become a big trouble for Your Majesty, but the second uncle is not involved with the Su family, if this falls in the eyes of Your Majesty, I don't know what to think! ”

How can Zhen Guogong not know?! Otherwise, he wouldn't have strictly asked his sons not to get involved in party struggle, but he didn't expect to be negligent!

He said with a tired face: "Since Ah Han has investigated clearly, you might as well tell me your opinion." ”
