The carriage finally arrived at the palace before the court.

The prime minister wiped the sweat from his forehead, slowly got out of the carriage with the support of the butler, and walked towards the main hall while looking back from time to time to check if Hua Xuanji had arrived.

"Prime Minister, Prime Minister." The servant of the Ministry of Officials and the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites walked over to the prime minister with a spring breeze on their faces, and said with a little respect: "Xiaguan congratulates the prime minister on his recovery from a serious illness. ”

"No need to be polite, no need to be polite." The Prime Minister said distractedly, and after a while, when he was sure that Hua Xuanji's figure had not arrived, he sighed worriedly.

The two only thought that the prime minister was worried about yesterday's incident, and hurriedly said: "The two of us will not forget what the prime minister said yesterday, and the prime minister doesn't have to worry about us." ”

"Hmm." The prime minister lightly squeezed out this sentence from his nose and reminded in a low voice: "The gun shot the first bird, and the old man is very grateful to the servants for being willing to be this bird." ”

"The Prime Minister praised it falsely, but the minister was carried by the Prime Minister, if this little thing can't be done well, it's not a shame for the cultivation of the Prime Minister." The smile lines in the corners of the officials' eyes became deeper, and the distance between him and the prime minister couldn't help but increase a few points.

"Oh, isn't this the Prime Minister?" Before the prime minister could reply, a joking voice slowly came.

Immediately afterwards, Bai Yan shook into the prime minister's eyes in a white shirt.

"The Six Princes." The servant of the Ministry of Officials and the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites hurriedly saluted Bai Yan.

"No need to be polite." Bai Yan replied lightly, the slightly narrowed peach blossom eyes never left the prime minister's body, and when the servants of the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rites saw this, they hurriedly found a reason to retreat. Leave the prime minister and Bai Yan behind.

"Is the Prime Minister feeling better?"

Bai Yan deliberately approached the prime minister, deliberately showing that the two were very close.

"The sixth prince is worried, and the old man's health is already better." The prime minister was lukewarm, and he didn't see the slightest joy or anger.

"Hmm." Bai Yan pinched his chin gently, and his peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly: "I don't know what kind of illness the prime minister has, this king has sent people to see the prime minister so many times, why hasn't he seen it?" Bai Yan's words were faint, with a bit of banter, and he couldn't hear the slightest blame, but it brought an invisible pressure to the prime minister.

The prime minister took a deep breath: "It is an infectious disease, and the old man is also worried that this disease will spread to the six princes and disturb the health of the six princes, so he avoided it, and asked the six princes to forgive me." ”

"How so? The Prime Minister is also for the sake of this king. Bai Yan smiled without the slightest defense, and suddenly realized as if he remembered something: "By the way, I heard that the prime minister's serious illness was cured because of that little daughter, and I heard that the emperor specially allowed her to go to the court, I don't know if she has arrived now." ”

As he spoke, he pretended to glance around: "Hey, it seems that you didn't come with the prime minister?" ”

"Yes." The prime minister replied lightly: "The little girl said that she had some things to do, so only the old man came alone today." ”

"Oh?" Bai Yan's words still had a playful tone: "Is it not finished, or must it not be finished?" ”

As he spoke, the slightly narrowed peach blossom eyes flashed with a fierce light.

"Sixth Prince, you ...... What do you mean? The prime minister only felt a chill on his back, and his voice couldn't help but tremble: "Could it be that the little girl is there with you?" ”

"Not only that, didn't Hua Xuanji tell you, your grandson and her children are also guests in this palace." Bai Yan stretched out his hand to support the prime minister's unstable body, and smiled extremely charmingly.

"What do you want to do?" The prime minister took a deep breath, and then slowly spit it out again: "Even if I agree alone, how can anyone else agree?" ”

"No, as long as you agree, Prime Minister, this king confirms that the others will definitely stand on the king's side." Bai Yan didn't want to hide anything anymore, and Gujing confided all his thoughts without waves. Then he slightly hooked the corners of his lips and said lightly:

"Prime Minister, your eldest daughter suffered misfortune, the only son and died on the battlefield, Hua Xuanji is your last daughter, this king thinks, you don't want to die alone in your old age, in a word, for two lives, it's really not a loss."

As he spoke, Bai Yan slowly let go of the hand holding the prime minister, raised his legs and slowly stepped into the main hall, leaving the prime minister with a white playful figure.

Taking a deep breath, the prime minister slowly opened his sweaty palm, looking at Bai Yan's figure farther and farther away from him, and then slowly exhaled this breath.

Raising his hand to slowly wipe the cold sweat off his forehead, the prime minister calmly followed the ministers who greeted him as usual and greeted him, and his afterglow swept towards Bai Yan from time to time.

At the same time, he gradually understood Hua Xuanji's intention to let her do those things last night.

Immediately afterwards, all the ministers walked in one after another, and the prime minister knew that Hua Xuanji would not come, so he didn't look anymore, and stood in his previous position and whispered to the ministers behind him about some small things that happened when he didn't come.

"The emperor has arrived." When the sun was fully rising, Gonggong Li's sharp voice pierced the noise of the entire hall, and everyone knelt on the ground respectfully, and said in unison: "Long live the emperor, long live, long live, long live." ”

Today's emperor looks a little more tired than before, under his narrow eyes are dark circles that have not slept in the middle of the night, his face is very pale, and even the few steps he walked are a little swaying.

The emperor first talked about some major events in the court, including the recovery of the prime minister. He also degraded some petty officials in the border areas who withheld people's food, and then, quietly raised his eyebrows at the prime minister, and said lightly:

"I'm a little sick today, I don't know if there's anything else going on in your family? If nothing happens, retreat. ”

The emperor's eyes, of course, the prime minister looked at them all in his eyes without moving for a moment, and hurriedly took a step forward and said respectfully:

"The old minister has been at home for a long time, during this period, he also considered the big and small events in the court, although the emperor is still old and strong, however, if the emperor is in charge of the small things at the border, it is really tricky, the position of the prince of the court is still hollow out, and the minister has the courage to propose, please ask the emperor to establish the prince as soon as possible."

After saying a word, it immediately provoked a commotion among the ministers.

But Ye Hua didn't want to listen to this, and was focused on Hua Xuanji's sudden disappearance and Qi'er is own child, and he was surprised and happy in his heart, how could he have time to take care of so much.

In other words, getting used to it and liking it is a terrible thing.

If it was Ye Hua in the past, he would definitely be in good spirits when he heard this, but now it is not what it used to be.

At this time, in his heart, that shadow had already overshadowed the prosperous world.

Perhaps, he just hasn't noticed it yet.

And the white flame on this side was slightly hooked up quietly, and there was no excessive commotion.

Of course, all their performances were meticulously in the eyes of the emperor, and the emperor reached out and stroked his beard and nodded in agreement.

"What the prime minister said is not unreasonable, even if you don't say it directly, I also understand that my body is not as good as day by day, Ye Sheng is gone, and I can't live in the past forever." The emperor's voice was a little hoarse, and then he raised his eyebrows and threw the burden back to the prime minister:

"The prime minister actually said so, I don't know if the prime minister has the best candidate in his heart."

The prime minister pursed his lips, took another step forward unhurriedly, and said in a deep voice: "Yes." ”

This word was as if the emperor had just arrived, and the entire main hall immediately fell silent, quiet, and even the sound of the occasional flying flies flapping their wings could be heard.

"Oh? Who is it? But it doesn't hurt to say that. "The emperor seems to like to play with the prime minister very much, and the two of them sing and behave very naturally.

"Weichen believes that the six princes have both ability and political integrity, although they are concubines, but all the years of hard work, everyone is in the eyes, and respect the teacher, and the emperor is also filial piety to the extreme, so the old minister has the courage to push the six princes as the prince."

As soon as this sound came out, the crowd was a little quieter than just now, I don't know if it was because I didn't react or because I had been in love for a long time, and after a long time, I made a few noises.

Although Ye Hua didn't hear it just now, in such a quiet situation, only the prime minister said it, and it was difficult not to hear it.

The two handsome eyebrows frowned slightly, and looked at the prime minister with some confusion.

In the afterglow, he felt that a gaze was on him, and suddenly remembered that this morning Yu Wufang said to himself that he should be calm about whatever happened.

The frowning brows immediately unfolded slowly, and returned to their previous indifference.

However, Bai Yan's side can't hide the joy in his heart, how to say, it is also his own plan for so many years, and finally succeeded, even if he is calm and can hide it, he will not be as indifferent as before.

The corners of his reddish lips were slightly hooked, Bai Yan's narrow eyes looked straight at the ground in front of him, he took a deep breath, his fist hidden under his sleeve was clenched tightly, and a voice in his heart slowly drifted away.

"Mother, have you seen it, your son, finally got his wish, mother, son, did not disappoint you!"

"Oh?" The emperor's voice carried a hint of affirmation, nodded slightly and pretended to think, and some pale lips slowly opened: "I also think that the character of the six princes is very good in handling state affairs, and it is indeed a good material for being a monarch. ”

"Thank you Prime Minister for your kind words for your son, your son feels that he is not as good as the Prime Minister said, and there is still a lot of room for continued development. As he spoke, Bai Yan slowly took a step forward, and the smile on his face slowly became indifferent.

However, before Bai Yan's feet fell, the servant of the ministry suddenly took a step forward and said coldly: "Your Majesty, the old minister has other proposals!" ”
