"Your Majesty, Emperor, the hour is not early." Qiu Yan bent her knees slightly, "Slave maid wait for Your Majesty to go to bed." ”

Zixi nodded.

Half an hour later, the two were lying on the bed, and Chu Chen took the initiative to talk to Zixi about some things about the government - although Zixi didn't ask and didn't care too much, Chu Chen still wanted her to know something.

She is the Empress, the true king of the country.

Whether it was Chu Chen or Nan Mohao, they were just helping her take care of it temporarily.

"What did you just say?" Zixi turned his head and heard a familiar name, "Xiang Nan?" ”

"Hmm." Chu Chen nodded, "This person is the son of Xiang Shangshu, and he is good at literature and martial arts, but his personality is a little wild and uninhibited. A few days ago, there was a break in the imperial history, impeaching Xiang Shangshu for teaching his son and conniving at his son to do things that were immoral. I went to find out, and I was a little embarrassed by the hidden secrets. ”

Zixi was slightly surprised.

Xiang Nan, Qin Shang mentioned when he was in Xiling, his father was originally a squire in the military department, and he was just qualified for the post of Shangshu at the end of last year.

Qin Shang once said that he was a genius, but he was withdrawn, arrogant, and disdained to submit to an empress.

Zixi did not lack people in his hands, and knowing that he was arrogant, he did not mean to be a strong man, so he didn't take Qin Shang's proposal to heart.

However, when he heard Chu Chen say this at this time, he couldn't help frowning: "What did he do that was immoral?" ”

Chu Chen turned around and looked at her fixedly for a moment: "He likes his sister." ”

Zixi was surprised, and her first reaction was, "Sister who is not related by blood? ”

"For now, I should kiss my sister." Chu Chen said, and couldn't help frowning, "The reason why this matter makes me embarrassed is that he is not an official in the court, he is not a courtier, and it is difficult for a Qing official to decide family affairs." Even if I have any thoughts on this matter, I can't just meddle in someone's house. ”

Zixi was silent for a moment.

She didn't expect that in the imperial city at the feet of the Son of Heaven, there were people who could be so uninhibited, even if they disdained the worldly eyes, they couldn't have this kind of affection with their own sister.

Qin Sheng had said before that Xiang Nan's biggest weakness was his sister.

But there is a lot of brother and sister love in this world, it is normal for a brother to protect his sister, Zixi never thought that Xiang Nan would like his sister.

It is estimated that even Qin Sheng himself has not thought about it.

"Xiang Nan married a wife a few years ago, but the relationship between husband and wife doesn't seem to be very good." Chu Chen frowned slightly, "Cai Yushi, who was impeached by the bullet, is Xiang Nan's father-in-law." ”

"In this way, these two families are a little stiff, and they are impeached in front of the Son of Heaven, and they are obviously going to tear their faces." Zixi thought for a while, "Have you summoned Xiang Shangshu to ask?" ”

Chu Chen nodded: "Although this matter is a family matter, it can have a very bad impact. If you don't ask, it will inevitably affect the atmosphere among the powerful families. But you have to pay attention to proportion, so I let Xiang Shangshu deal with it himself. ”

Zixi was silent for a moment: "I always feel that things should not be so simple. ”

"I think so too." Chu Chen nodded, "Most of the things in this kind of official's house have a lot of hidden secrets, and you can't listen to anyone's side of the story, so you must be cautious." ”

Zixi pondered.

Xiang Nan......

"That's it, I'll let Qiu Yan go out of the palace tomorrow and go to investigate this matter privately." Zixi said, "You need to find out the inside story before you can make a decision." ”

Chu Chen nodded and stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around her waist: "It's not early, let's sleep." ”
