Chapter 138

Changchun Palace.

Queen Cheng lay on the chaise longue to rest, and the two maidservants beside her knelt beside her and pinched her body.

"King Qi hasn't arrived yet?"

Queen Cheng closed her eyes and said lightly.

Mama He glanced out of the door, and saw King Qi striding from a distance, bowed her head and responded, "King Qi has arrived." ”

Empress Cheng opened her eyes.

Mama He immediately sent all the people in the temple out.

Xiao Hongxuan looked at the departing maidservant, and his face became even colder.

"The Queen Mother."

Queen Cheng was lying on the chaise longue and glanced at Xiao Hongxuan coldly: "Xiao Yanhao is in court today?" ”

"Yes."

"For what?"

Xiao Hongxuan's expression was grim, there was no smile on his face, and he stood straight aside and said, "Xu is for the matter of the bandits in Baili Mountain." ”

"Xu yes?" Empress Cheng's eyes shot at Xiao Hongxuan like a knife, "Only by knowing each other and knowing oneself can you survive a hundred battles, and you don't even know what he is going to do." ”

The atmosphere in the hall instantly dropped to freezing, and it was terrifyingly quiet.

Xiao Hongxuan pursed his lips, his eyes lowered, and he didn't answer.

After a long time, Empress Cheng picked up the tea on the side and took a sip, and asked calmly: "I heard that he went to Yongdehou Mansion yesterday?" ”

Xiao Hongxuan's thin lips opened and replied coldly: "Yes, if you come out in the rain, you should be rejected." ”

The corners of Queen Cheng's mouth hooked up a sneer: "Yongdehou is a person who understands current affairs, and this eldest lady is also self-aware." ”

"If Yongdehou rejects him, there will be a gap between the two sides." Empress Cheng paused, and the smile on her face grew, "Without the help of the Yongdehou Mansion, he can only seek good help, as long as he gets the Yongdehou Mansion, I am afraid that there will be no military power to help him in the future." ”

"In the past few days, Mrs. Yongdehou has taken her two young ladies out of the house, you find time to meet them, as long as you catch up with them, the palace is talking about it, marry one and come back as a side concubine, Yongdehou doesn't want to stand here with us."

Xiao Hongxuan's phoenix eyes drooped slightly, his heart was disgusted, but his face was not obvious, and he said calmly: "Yes." ”

Queen Cheng looked at Xiao Hongxuan, her face suddenly sank, and she picked up the cup on the side and threw it away: "With a bitter face, I am still complaining about the palace." ”

"If you dare to go to see them with this stinky face and mess things up, do you know the consequences?"

Xiao Hongxuan took a deep breath and responded, "Erchen understands. ”

Queen Cheng got up, slowly walked in front of Xiao Hongxuan, straightened Xiao Hongxuan's collar, and said softly: "Don't blame the queen mother for being ruthless, the queen mother is doing this for you." ”

"Kiki has been in the house for many years, and it's time to give birth to Lin'er."

Queen Cheng stretched out her hand to touch Xiao Hongxuan's face, and said softly: "Xuan'er, when everything is settled, the queen mother will return her to you." ”

Xiao Hongxuan pursed his lips and nodded for a long time.

Seeing Xiao Hongxuan nodding, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in Queen Cheng's eyes, and then she turned around and said in a deep voice: "Regardless of whether Xiao Yanhao is for the Baili Mountain bandits, you can't let him get this errand." ”

"Meritorious, heh, how easy it is to return to the court with meritorious service."

Xiao Hongxuan's sleeves were clenched tightly.

Empress Cheng sat back in the chaise longue, looked at the armor on her hand, and asked, "What did Su Yibo say?" ”

Xiao Hongxuan replied: "Agreed." ”

"Although it is a rich family, if they can give up a son in exchange for a lifetime of glory to save their ruined family, they should also agree." Empress Cheng sneered, "The Yongdehou Mansion will definitely agree, it is not easy to find someone in Kyoto who can make a fortune." ”

**

In the imperial study, the emperor sat on the upper seat, and said lightly while criticizing the folds: "What do you want to do?" ”

Xiao Yanhao raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Marry a wife." ”

The movement in the emperor's hand stopped, and he raised his eyes to look at the man in front of him, his eyebrows and eyes were extremely similar to her, and he usually wore just the right smile, which seemed to be careless, but in fact he was indeed careless.

"Yongdehou's eldest daughter?"

Xiao Yanhao walked to the chair on the side and sat down directly, nodded and said, "Since my father knows, he will definitely bless his son." ”

"No, I can't. Change one. After the emperor finished speaking, he continued to review the recital, and then said slowly, "You should know that you are different from others, if she is healthy, I will be sure, but she ......" sighed lightly, "I can't afford to be the princess of Xiang." ”

Xiao Yanhao supported his head with one hand, tilted his head to look at the emperor who was already with white hair on his temples, and said unhurriedly: "If she can't afford it, this king doesn't mind letting this position be empty for a hundred years, so that there is no successor to the Xiangwang Mansion." ”

"Presumptuous!" The emperor raised his head violently and glared at the person with a light smile, looking at the smiling man who said something rebellious, he couldn't get angry, "Are you threatening me?" ”

"Yes!"

"The fox of the Yongdehou Mansion bewitches the lord, and his heart can be punished." The emperor's phoenix eyes were slightly sunken, and his gaze was stern.

The corners of Xiao Yanhao's mouth hooked up a sneer: "If you dare to move her, this king will dare to move himself, and by the way, bring a little five." ”

The emperor was angry and picked up the paperweight directly.

Gonggong Fu couldn't help but stretch out his hand to stop it, but saw the emperor's hand in the air, then looked left and right, put down the paperweight, picked up a book and smashed it on Xiao Yanhao's body: "You are worthy of them!" ”

Xiao Yanhao casually changed his lazy posture: "They have been dead for so many years, what are you sorry for, this king has always only done things for his own heart, I call you father, you are my father, this country is so thick, this king has no intention or willingness." ”

"Even if you pass the throne to your son, your son can give it up, so why bother."

The arrogant phoenix's eyes were full of disdain for the throne.

"Presumptuous!" The emperor was furious, his whole brow was quietly furrowed in one place, and his tone was deep and angry.

"You are his only son, this country should be yours, even if you don't want to take on this responsibility, you can't marry the eldest daughter of Yongdehou, how can she be worthy of you with a sick and weak body."

"Father, in the Northwest Campaign, you gave your son a promise, and your son will come to take it today." Xiao Yanhao sighed softly, got up and walked to the hall, folded his hands and stretched them forward, and said respectfully, "Erchen has never wanted anything for more than 20 years, only she, Erchen wants, ask my father to fulfill it." ”

The man in front of him bowed down, and it was the first time he had spoken to him with great solemnity, even on that rainy night fifteen years ago, and he had not begged him.

The emperor took a deep breath and said, "Your promise has been used on Xiao Wu, and I will not force you to become the crown prince." ”

Xiao Yanhao raised his eyes to look at the emperor, and his arrogant phoenix eyes had a depth that people didn't dare to look at directly: "The mountain bandits of Baili Mountain, have you dealt with them?" ”

The emperor glanced at the folds on the ground.

Father-in-law Fu immediately stepped forward to pick it up and handed it over.

The emperor took the crack on it, threw it to the side, and said, "I have arranged for General Zhenbei to go." ”

"Fujian, Zhejiang, and Haikou ...... wantonly"

"This matter has General Shao."
