Chapter 167: Uncle Huang's palace is very lively
The atmosphere became a little tense for a moment.
No one has ever dared to speak to Xiao Mingrui like this, but he, Xiao Tingyi, is the only one of the scorpions.
All the precedents that Daqian has never broken were broken by him.
All the behaviors of Da Qian who have not been connived at are connived at him.
Xiao Mingrui looked at this imperial uncle who had behaved perversely and lawlessly everywhere since he was a child, and he didn't know how, and a kind of grievance came to his heart.
The two of them grew up together, but the smile of their father only bloomed at the emperor's uncle, and for him, there was always only harshness and lessons.
Although he knew very well that his father was thinking about him, at that time, in his young heart, there was still a great lack of his father's generous love.
This is an irreparable regret forever.
He was very jealous of Xiao Tingyi.
Grandpa Huang, as well as his father, are so good to him, he just needs to be happy and enjoyed, and he doesn't have to worry about life in the future at all.
But he has been educated since he was a child to be on par with the throne.
Therefore, since he was very young, he hated Xiao Tingyi!
This is why, once when he was a child, he was so ghostly and pushed Xiao Tingyi into the water!
It's a pity that he didn't drown, and let Liao Zhi save him.
Hum!
"Your Majesty, is this king determined to make a change, and he doesn't want to be ashamed of his father and brother, but it bothers you?"
Xiao Tingyi's voice sounded again, which made Xiao Mingrui's thoughts turn.
However, how could this kind of thing be admitted to his face, so he subconsciously shook his head again, "Uncle Huang, this is impossible, it's too late for me to be happy." ”
Immediately, he said, "In this matter, I immediately asked the Ministry of Rites to do it and sent an envoy to southern Xinjiang. ”
Xiao Tingyi looked at him, and before he could answer, he heard him ask again, "Uncle Huang's palace is really lively, I heard that a few days ago, there was a woman crying at the door of your mansion, saying that she was pregnant, is it true?" ”
He spoke quickly, as if he wished that Xiao Tingyi would admit it.
"Not bad."
"Uncle Huang, no matter what, the bloodline of our royal family must be protected, and the imperial aunt will not persuade you."
Xiao Tingyi looked at the look of 'sure enough' flashing in his eyes, and seemed to be a little relieved, so he said slowly, "However, that woman is Nan Rongdi's apprentice. ”
Suddenly, Xiao Mingrui's mouth was closed.
He must have done it on purpose!
So, almost gritting his teeth, he said, "I will also let people write this matter in the letter!" ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Xiao Tingyi nodded without being salty, stood up and wanted to leave, but as if he remembered something, he asked, "When will the post-sealing ceremony of the concubine be held?" ”
"Why does Uncle Huang care about this?"
Xiao Mingrui was a little prevaricating, "Concubine Yue was frightened last time, her body has not been very good, and the procedures of the post-sealing ceremony are cumbersome, I am afraid that she will be tired, so I plan to see her situation later before deciding." ”
"Your Majesty is really considerate, compared to the previous queen, Concubine Yue is more blessed."
Xiao Tingyi's expression seemed to be smiling, "These days, the folk have been circulating that Concubine Yue has long fallen out of favor, and the real queen is afraid that Concubine Rong will fall into disgrace." ”
"It's just gibberish!"
Xiao Mingrui was immediately a little angry, "What should I do, when will it be their turn to put their beaks!" ”
"What did Your Majesty say?"
"Nothing."
Xiao Mingrui suppressed his irritability and said, "Thank you Uncle Huang for telling me about this issue, I will arrange it well." ”
And Xiao Tingyi didn't stay on this question any longer, so he nodded, "Then in this case, the king has retired, and the princess is still waiting for the king to go back and coax." ”
After saying that, he left as if no one was around, and he didn't even close the door.
Although it is now February, the spring cold is still cold, and the cold wind is like no money, pouring it into the imperial study, hitting Xiao Mingrui's face, and blowing his robe hunting.
Xiao Mingrui stared at his departing back, and the warm face that he had forcibly maintained finally showed a crack.
Just now, in front of Xiao Tingyi, he lost his temper.
"Humph!"
A fine glazed teacup was slammed to the ground by him, falling to pieces.
Why is he so arrogant!
……
However, what people didn't expect was that before Xiao Mingrui sent someone to send the document that had just finished writing the 'strong reprimand' and sent it together with the messenger, someone from southern Xinjiang actually came.
The people who came were Nan Xiaomo, the princess of Southern Xinjiang, and Nan Kongyan, the prince of Southern Xinjiang, and the two sisters and brothers.
As for the purpose of coming to Daqian, it is also very clear -
For the sake of Nan Rongdi.
Princess Nan Xiaomo is a calm and calm girl, her eyebrows and eyes are handsome, although she looks petite, but her dignified and old-fashioned bearing cannot be ignored.
Compared with his sister, Prince Nankong Yan is a lively and jumpy young man, handsome in life, and his mouth is extraordinarily clever.
On the way into the palace, the palace maids he met along the way, whether they were old or young, beautiful or ugly, all of them were praised again and again.
And Xiao Mingrui met them in the glass hall dedicated to receiving foreign guests.
"I've seen Your Majesty."
Nan Xiao Mo was polite, "I am Nan Xiao Mo, the princess of Southern Xinjiang, this is Brother Wang, Nan Kongyan." ”
"Your Majesty."
Nan Kongyan also showed a sunny smile, full of vitality, which made anyone envious when they saw it.
"The two of you are too polite, I don't know ......"
Xiao Tingyi hurriedly invited them to sit and let the palace maid serve tea, and then planned to pretend that they didn't know and continue to make a polite opening.
But he didn't want to, but Nan Xiao Mo got straight to the point and said directly, "Your Majesty, this time my sister and brother came to Daqian to confirm the news of a person, and I hope to get help from you and Daqian, Xiao Mo is very grateful on behalf of Nanjiang." ”
Although Nan Xiaomo is a woman, she is bold and neat, with a vigorous and resolute taste, Xiao Mingrui looked at her a few more times, and felt that she seemed to be more suitable to become the next king of Southern Xinjiang than Nankong Yan.
In modern times, it is a proper image of a strong woman.
"Oh? Princess, please speak. ”
Xiao Mingrui pretended to be surprised, and Nan Kongyan said, "This person used to be our uncle Wang, whose name is Nan Rongdi, who was expelled from Southern Xinjiang by his grandfather twenty years ago, leaving him to fend for himself, but since then he has disappeared, until two years ago, we rediscovered the traces of his activities, but we have not been able to find him." ”
"I see."
Xiao Mingrui nodded, and said secretly in his heart, but it was exactly what Xiao Tingyi said.
It's just that he still feels uncomfortable in his heart.
That's right! Isn't the steward of his house dead? You can send another one yourself!
"Your Majesty?"
Nan Xiaomo's puzzled voice came from his ears, and Xiao Mingrui realized that he was distracted, and hurriedly coughed lightly to hide the embarrassment, and said, "That...... I'm thinking about how to work with you. ”
"Your Majesty means that Uncle Wang did appear in Daqian?"
Nan Kongyan was also extremely smart, and he immediately heard the key.
It's just that he secretly thinks that this emperor is unhappy, pretending to be confused, and doing so much hypocrisy.
"Actually, before the two of them arrived, I was still asking people to investigate the truth of this matter."
As if sensing what Nankong Yan was thinking, he explained, "Before, the Central Plains region rarely had any dealings with the inhabitants of the territory, whether it was the Southern Frontier, the Western Regions, the Northern Desert, or the legendary East China Sea. ”
"Some time ago, my imperial uncle, King Xian, something happened in the house, his housekeeper was killed, and surprisingly, this housekeeper turned out to be the only survivor in the Southwest Poison Valley, and was found by the enemy, that is, your uncle Wang, and a tragedy occurred."
"Although, that person calls himself Nan Rongdi, but before, there has been almost no communication between the two parties, and no one can determine the authenticity or falsehood, so cautious, I am also worried that if someone fakes, it will cause a deep misunderstanding between the Central Plains and the territory."
The reasons that Xiao Mingrui gave himself are extremely sufficient.
But it sounds quite convincing, and I feel that he is an excellent emperor who can consider everything.
It's just that Nan Kongyan rolled his eyes in his heart.
But Nan Xiaomo didn't show any doubts, and said, "Your Majesty is thoughtful and thoughtful, which makes Xiao Mo admire." ”
"Well, that's not true."
Xiao Mingrui shook his head and said, "I'm just afraid of war, once I succeed, it's always the people who will suffer, and I can't bear it in my heart." ”
Yes, he still continues to concave his image of a virtuous emperor who loves the people like a son.
"Your Majesty is really a good and merciful emperor."
Nan Xiaomo nodded, and asked calmly, "In that case, can I let my sister and brother meet His Royal Highness Xianwang, understand what happened at that time, and continue to track Nan Rongdi's whereabouts." ”
She didn't call him Uncle Wang anymore, but called him by his first name, and it was obvious that her attitude towards Nan Rongdi was that she must be arrested and then disposed of.
"This ......"
Xiao Mingrui seemed to be thinking about something, and said with some hesitation, "I, the imperial uncle, is always used to lawlessness on weekdays, I'm afraid it will make the two of you laugh." ”
Nan Xiaomo shook his head, as if he didn't care at all, "It's okay, the top priority is to find Nan Rongdi as soon as possible, he is an out-and-out madman, and if you let it go for any more day, you will be in danger for one more day." ”
Hearing her say this, Xiao Mingrui couldn't help but be shocked, and his expression became serious, "In this way, I will let someone take you to the Xianwang Mansion." ”
Finally, he added, "I'm not sure, he's definitely here." ”
After all, a person like Xiao Tingyi is easy to change his nature, and if he really wants to become a dedicated person, it will be terrible.
In fact, he didn't even notice that he was deliberately smearing Xiao Tingyi's image, and he hated to let everyone in the world know that Xiao Tingyi, the idle king, was an out-and-out ridiculous prince!
"It doesn't matter, even if it's not there, we'll keep waiting and get the most details."
Nan Xiaomo was not disturbed by Xiao Mingrui's words at all, which made Xiao Mingrui a little unhappy.
Kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs!
Although her crisp and crisp appearance is inferior to many women, Xiao Mingrui feels that she is a little ignorant.
But at this point, he could only nod his head and promise, "Okay, I will summon someone to accompany you to the Xianwang Mansion." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Nan Xiaomo still didn't have too many expressions, and Xiao Mingrui instructed the eunuch beside him, "Go and pass on Ye Shilang." ”
