Chen Xi was also resting on this day, and took Du Mingxin and Brother Kun to the flower market in Dongcheng. Du Mingxin found two rare exclusive springs, and Brother Kun got a newborn puppy, and the family happily rode back to the palace in a carriage.

As soon as Chen Xi helped Du Mingxin get out of the carriage, he heard the concierge come up and report: "Lord, Lord Zhang Jian Zhang from the palace gate guard has been waiting in the outer study for an hour. ”

Chen Xi frowned and said, "Didn't you tell him that I took the princess out?" If something happens again tomorrow, it will be the same, so why make him wait so hard? ”

The porter hurriedly laughed and shouted: "The little one is back!" said that you went out with the princess and uncle, and I don't know when you will come back, so that Lord Zhang might as well come back tomorrow. But he didn't comply, saying that the matter was big, and it would be difficult for him to wait at home, so it was better to wait in the palace......"

Du Mingxin led Brother Kun inside, and said to Chen Xi: "Since that's the case, you can go over quickly." ”

Brother Kun pulled Chen Xi's sleeve and didn't let him go, shouting in his mouth: "Dad, make a nest, make a nest!" ”

Chen Xi hugged his son and kissed him, and said with a smile: "You go back to the house with your mother first, and when your father returns to the house, he will take you to make a nest for Xiaomao." ”

Brother Kun was unhappy, and he was about to start crying with a grin, but when he saw Du Mingxin's sharp gaze, he had no choice but to hold back and reluctantly leave.

Chen Xi smiled, shook his head and went to the outer study.

"Lord Wang!" As soon as Zhang Jian saw Chen Xi coming in, he stood up abruptly and said anxiously, "You can come back!" ”

Chen Xi smiled and let him sit down, and said, "I don't know why Brother Zhang came to me in such a hurry?" ”

At this time, the maid came up with two cups of tea, served them to Chen Xi and Zhang Jian respectively, and then went down quietly, leaving only the two of them in the study.

Zhang Jian saw that everyone in the Jin Palace's mansion was already magnificent, but Chen Xi still retained the old title, and his heart was moved.

He took out the list of items from the Huaishun Marquis Mansion, explained the ins and outs of the matter, and then waited for Chen Xi to speak.

Chen Xi pinched the piece of paper and didn't make a sound for a long time.

His first reaction was to enter the palace immediately and tell Chen Yuantai, but seeing that it was dark outside, the palace gate must have been locked.

After thinking about it, he thought of the queen, the prince and the Anguo Mansion again, and felt even more embarrassed. He was not afraid of offending the Deng family, but there was a prince in the middle, and he was afraid that he would hurt the jade bottle for beating mice.

Zhang Jian looked at Chen Xi's expression and said cautiously: "Lord Wang, did I bring you a troublesome matter?" ”

Chen Xi smiled: "Yes! You thought about all this twists and turns before you came to me, right? ”

Zhang Jian smiled apologetically: "I've been thinking about it at home for two days...... But Zhaorong and Huaishun Hou's family are innocent in the end. Now in this matter, the public says that the public is reasonable, and the mother says that the mother is reasonable, and the emperor is also very ......."

Is that trying to solve problems for the emperor? Chen Xi was slightly surprised, could it be that in the past two years in Beijing, Zhang Jian has also learned to speculate?

He thought for a while and said, "Now that the palace gate is locked, we won't be able to see the emperor." Wait for me to enter the palace tomorrow to explain the reason to my father, and you will wait for the summons. ”

Zhang Jian hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I came to you just to ask you to talk about ......it," he smiled embarrassedly and said, "I'm timid and afraid, but I can't see anyone wronged...... Lord Wang, you can take this piece of paper to help me solve a big trouble, don't let me go to the emperor again. ”

Chen Xi smiled: "You also know that the emperor is worried about this matter, you can solve this troublesome matter by going here, maybe you, the fifth-grade official, can move again!" ”

Zhang Jian's head shook like a rattle, and he said continuously: "Don't say that! followed the emperor at the beginning, also because the emperor was generous. If it weren't for the emperor, I wouldn't even be able to buy a thin-skinned coffin, let alone send my father decently. ”

Chen Xi saw that his expression did not seem to be fake, so he didn't say anything anymore.

After sending Zhang Jian away, Chen Xi returned to the main room. Brother Kun had already fallen asleep, and after Du Mingxin had washed up, he was reading on the bed.

Chen Xi took her book away and closed it, and said, "How many times have I told you, don't read at night, no matter how bright the light is, it's a bit eye-catching." ”

Du Mingxin pushed him with a smile, and said angrily: "I'm almost finished reading one section!" ”

Chen Xi ignored her, put the book on the dressing table, and went to the clean room to wash himself.

Du Mingxin followed, and while helping him twist the handkerchief, he asked, "What is the urgency of this Zhang Jian to find you today?" ”

Chen Xi said Zhang Jian's intention, and Du Mingxin asked, "Does the prince want to take care of this matter?" ”

Chen Xi nodded and said, "My father treats me like a mountain, I don't know about such a thing, since Zhang Jian sent it to me, I must tell my father." ”

Du Mingxin didn't say anything more, just quietly waited for Chen Xi to wash and change clothes. After a while, she smiled again: "This Zhang Jian is a wonderful person, he himself knows that everyone avoids such things, how can he still hand it over to you regardless of it?" Aren't you afraid that you will annoy him with many things? ”

Chen Xi heard what she said, so he took her hand and asked seriously, "Do you not want me to take care of this matter?" ”

Du Ming thought for a while, and replied seriously: "Yes, I don't really want you to meddle in such a thing. ”

"The common people still know that the son can't control the affairs of his father's room, let alone the heavenly family? This is a palace secret, how many people know about it and pretend not to know, why do you insist on getting together? ”

Chen Xi looked at Du Mingxin's face, and stopped talking.

"I know that since you know about this, you must tell the emperor." Du Mingxin smiled, "I'm just thinking, if there is a more tactful way, wouldn't it be better than you coming forward directly?" The prince doesn't know his heart, I'm afraid that he will annoy you. ”

Chen Xi didn't expect the two of them to have a dispute over this matter, and he patiently explained: "Originally, I just wanted to help Zhang Jian deliver a message in front of my father, but he was timid and afraid of offending people. The family only relies on him, and he doesn't have any backers, if he is remembered by someone who cares, his situation will be difficult......"

That's why two people think differently.

Du Mingxin didn't say anything more, only served Chen Xi to finish washing, and then went to bed and lay down.

Chen Xi looked at her back, and stopped talking several times. After a while, he heard Du Mingxin's long breathing, and he actually fell asleep!

Chen Xi was helpless, and he tossed and turned until midnight before falling asleep.

Early the next morning, when Chen Xi woke up, he saw Du Mingxin putting the clothes he was going to wear on the hanger, so he leaned out and took her hand.

Du Mingxin turned around and smiled: "You're awake." ”

Chen Xi looked at her expression carefully, and saw that this smile did not seem to be reluctant, so he asked with some flattery: "Aren't you angry?" ”
