Su Zimo walked out of the gate of Xiushuiju, and Dugu Die saw him off. It's just an eighteen-year-old boy, and it seems that the burden of a thousand gold is weighed on his shoulders, and when he walks, it is quite laborious. Yushu approached and called the princess, Dugu Dieyi's thoughts, and then Yushu pulled back.

"Duanwang is gone?" Dugu Dieyi sat down.

Yushu replied: "Duan Wang Ye hasn't left yet, he is wandering outside the door of Xiushuiju, and the five princes are about to meet when they go out." ”

Dugu Dieyi didn't speak, it was a matter of time before they met, it just depended on how Su Zimo would solve this matter.

"Princess, aren't you worried that Duan Wang Ye will make a stumbling block for the fifth prince?" Yushu couldn't help but worry.

Duan Wangye's mother is Queen Sun of the Middle Palace, and she has been crowned king for many years, whether in the palace or outside the court, she has a certain amount of power.

But Su Zimo is different, when he first returned to the capital, he had no backer behind him, although his uncle was the Duke of Jinguo, he had been tired for many years, and he had no power.

Now, Dugu Dieyi shows that he is closer to Su Zimo, which will inevitably ignite the jealousy of Duan Wangye.

"If he can't even solve this little stumbling block, it will be in vain that I expect too much from him." Dugu Dieyi said lightly, having said that, she still has to make her own plans. "Send a message to Sun Cheng and arrange thirty masters to be distributed around the Jinguo Mansion."

Yushu responded and retreated. Dugu Die snuggled on the soft couch, her body looked very lazy, but her spirit was like a nighthawk, and her eyes were like torches.

Xiushui lives outside the door, and King Duan is wandering not far away. Seeing Su Zimo walking out of Xiushui Residence, at that time, Duanwang's eyes were lit with anger.

Originally, he didn't believe in Dugu Dieyi's reasons for being tired, but he dared to have Su Zimo with her. It seems that this younger brother of mine has to be guarded against.

Seeing King Duan, Su Zimo was not a little surprised, he hurried forward and came to King Duan's side. He bowed to King Duan.

"I've met Brother Duanwang."

is also a prince, although King Duan has a title, but in the end he is a brother, and he will not make any big gifts.

King Duan put away his anger, forced his tone, and said lukewarmly: "The fifth brother is leisurely, the first time he returned to the palace, he actually knew where to exert his strength......

In King Duan's words, the irony is very obvious. Su Zimo couldn't understand it.

But seeing him bow his hand again, he smiled and said: "Brother Duanwang thinks too much, my father is not feeling well, and I want to drink a bowl of hawthorn and pear mandarin duck porridge, the porridge I boiled, it is always a little hot, no, I heard that the princess of Xixia is smart, come and listen to the princess's opinion......"

A sneer appeared on Duanwang's face. The curvature of the corners of his mouth pulled half of his face out of shape a little.

"There are more people in the palace who can make porridge. Why did the fifth brother just want to ask this Xixia princess for advice? I'm afraid it has ulterior motives, right? Duanwang's words are still full of irony.

Su Zimo was not angry, he said without hurry: "Indeed, in order to let my father and emperor drink a bowl of delicious porridge, I have consulted the women of the entire harem, and even the queen mother asked me to disturb it." ”

When King Duan heard Su Zimo's words, he was simply angry, this Su Zimo actually made an article on a bowl of porridge. It seems that he is not far from the time when he will receive the Sacred Heart. Emperor Tianwei likes filial children the most, and he has to be careful.

"Fifth brother, it's been half a month since you returned to the capital, do you remember Concubine Mei of Guhan Temple? Brother Duanwang got the news and said that after the winter, Concubine Mei was infected with the wind cold, when did the fifth brother plan to go back to the Guhan Temple to accompany her? ”

Duanwang is an obvious temptation, it depends on whether Su Zimo understands current affairs. If he knows the current affairs, he will leave the capital as soon as possible and go back to his lonely cold temple, if he does not know the current affairs, then he will not blame his brother Wang for ignoring his brotherhood.

Su Zimo understood that King Duan was just using his mother Concubine Mei to let him take care of it, and then achieve King Duan's own goals.

These words, which sound approachable, are in fact dangerous. Su Zimo's current power is weak, and with the love of Emperor Tianwei alone, he can't gain a foothold in the capital at all, let alone compete with the deep-rooted Duanwang. Therefore, in front of the powerful and insidious Duan King, he must retreat step by step in order to protect himself.

"If I go back to Brother Duan, I already have a plan to go back to Guhan Temple to take care of my mother, but my father doesn't allow me to leave for the time being. When spring dawned, I told my father that I would leave Beijing to fulfill my filial piety to my mother. ”

After receiving Su Zimo's reply, King Duan's heart relaxed slightly.

"Fifth brother, you are really a filial child, no wonder your father likes you." A satisfied smile appeared on Duanwang's face. He stretched out his hand and patted Su Zimo's shoulder lightly, as if he meant something.

"Zhongjin Guogong is sick, Brother Wang is very worried, and he has sent someone to prepare a gift for the visit, which will be delivered before the fifth brother goes to Guogong's Mansion tomorrow. Zhongjin Guogong is the uncle of the fifth brother, Concubine Mei is not in the capital, and she can't take care of it. ”

It's a threat again, King Duan always likes to threaten people, the meaning of his words is quite obvious, but he is telling Su Zimo, what tricks do you play less, your uncle is also in my hands, you better be honest.

Su Zimo's face was extremely calm, and there was no change at all, and he arched his hand again: "Thank you Brother Duanwang for your heart." ”

King Duan left, passing by the gate of Xiushui Residence, in the courtyard, a head secretly poked out, looking at King Duan.

Duan Wang suddenly turned around, and actually saw Yuhuan's shy little face, Duan Wang was a veteran in the love field, so he naturally understood what information was hidden in Yuhuan's affectionate and silent eyes, so he smiled at Yuhuan very casually.

Yuhuan was extremely shy at that time, and ran into the courtyard of Xiushuiju.

The brief eye contact between the two clearly fell into the eyes of Yushu, who happened to go out, and Yushu turned around and went back to the house.

Xiushui was inside, Dugu Die was sitting on a chair, her eyes were not angry, and in front of her, there was a trembling girl kneeling.

Ying Gu stayed respectfully to the side, her expression extremely calm.

The little girl's name is Xianglian, and at this moment, she is sobbing fiercely, as if she is wronged.

"Ask the princess for mercy, the slave will never dare to ...... in the future"

Dugu Dieyi glanced at Aunt Ying, and said slowly: "Aunt Ying, you are an old man in the harem of the Heavenly Empire, you know the rules in the palace, you say, it is like Xianglian committed this thing, how should it be punished?" ”

Aunt Ying slowly spoke: "According to the rules of my Heavenly Empire's harem, I should be killed with a cane......"
