Seeing him hesitate like this, Liu Hai softened a little and said, "Actually, Your Majesty may not really be suspicious of them, right?" ”

Emperor Tianqing pursed the corners of his mouth.

Liu Hai said: "Xue Nuo saved your life, if it is really the person sent by Xue Chen, he can only sit on the wall and watch you die from the wolves when you are in the hunting ground, and any grudges will be avenged, as for the soft words of Mrs. Jing Anbo, it doesn't look like a person from the capital, and the Xue family doesn't need to deceive you for a traitor who has been expelled from the clan." ”

Emperor Tianqing looked at him when he heard this: "Do you think they are not?" ”

Liu Hai shook his head: "The old slave has always lived in the Guangning Palace, and he doesn't know much about the affairs of the outside world, the old slave just thinks that there is nothing more important in this world than your life." If you are gone, the court will be chaotic, and the purpose of Xue Chen and Yongzhao will be achieved. ”

"If you are suspicious of that Xue Nuo, why don't you imagine that day when the hunting ground was in distress, if there is no other person to save Your Majesty, can you have the confidence to escape?"

Emperor Tianqing remembered the wild wolf that bit his arm and almost made him lose his arm, and he somewhat understood the meaning of the bangs.

If the situation was not so dangerous at that time, if there were other people around him, he could have a chance to escape, then Xue Nuo might have saved him in order to earn a credit for saving him and gain his trust, but this was not the case at that time, at that time, Yan Ling and Xiao Chi were entangled, and the guards could not rescue him, so the wild wolf only had to go one step further to kill him.

If the prince has the heart of rebellion, if the Shen family colludes with Xue Chen, they can push the prince to the throne by just sitting back and letting him die in the mouth of the wolf, so why bother to save him?

Treat others with himself, if he is Xue Chen, there is a chance that he can ask for his life to avenge Yongzhao, will he let it go?

Emperor Tianqing's first reaction was that he would not let it go.

Not only will he not save him, but he will help him die!

Seeing that his expression softened, Liu Hai said to him: "Yongzhao has been dead for eight years, and many things have been settled, so what can Xue Chen do even if he is alive, Zuo is just a rat hiding in the dark." The crown prince and Shen Yuanfu are not stupid people, all their glory is tied to His Majesty, how could they abandon His Majesty and choose a dead person? ”

"As for that Xue Nuo, if Your Majesty can see it too much, you can take it a little bit, if you can't see it and find a reason to deal with it, can the Shen family and the crown prince really stop you?"

"The whole world is not the king's land, and life and death under the imperial power are all in your thoughts, why should Your Majesty worry about him."

Emperor Tianqing heard this, but the killing intent in his heart faded, and he took a sip of tea full of boredom: "I just hate people related to her. ”

Liu Hai didn't say anything when he heard this, but shrugged his eyelids and added tea for him.

Emperor Tianqing relaxed, looked at the clear tea and said, "It's still your tea here to drink smoothly." ”

Liu Hai smiled lightly: "It's Your Majesty's favor, but it's all coarse tea." ”

Emperor Tianqing rarely had a time to be completely relaxed in front of people, and only when he was facing this old servant could he completely relax, he half leaned on the table and rubbed his eyebrows and said:

"Don't you know how many troubles I have had recently, things in the court are constantly going on, King Xiling is ambitious, my sons are not stopping, and even Feng Yuan is becoming more and more useless."

"When I saw that he was able to do things, I handed over Jinlinwei to him to take care of, but during this period of time, one after another, I wondered if Jinlinwei should still be in his hands."

Liu Hai added some water to the teapot, put the teapot on the small stove and said casually: "You are the Son of Heaven, you have the final say in everything in the court, if you have to use it, you will use it, and if you can't use it, you can change it." ”

Emperor Tianqing glanced at him: "It's easy for you to say!" ”

Feng Yuan is in charge of the twelve prisons, and he has Jinlinwei in hand, and he has done a lot of unsavory things for him over the years, how can he easily change it.

However, Emperor Tianqing was thinking about Zhan Changdong's previous words in his heart, thinking about whether Feng Yuan was useless or he really had a different heart.

He didn't mind that the people around him were a little selfish, and he didn't mind that Feng Yuan was using Jinlin Wei to make profits, but the premise was that his loyalty was always there.

This whole court is like a fish pond, he can tolerate the fish preying on it, and it doesn't hurt to be careful.

But if it's a devourer......

Then you can't stay.

Guangning Hall is actually not remote, but because there are few people around, it seems a little barren, and everyone in the palace knows that this is a forbidden place for the Son of Heaven, and no one will trespass here to find themselves uncomfortable.

Emperor Tianqing and Liu Hai sat for a while to relieve their minds and drove away, and after waiting for people to leave, Liu Hai called the dumb slave to come over and clean up the quiet room, and he went around the Buddha hall again.

The three sticks of incense that had been lit earlier were only half burned, and Liu Hai stepped forward and took out the incense and put it aside for the dumb slave to take out and throw away, while he himself lit another three sticks of incense and sent them into the incense burner.

When the incense was burning, he took half a step back and looked up at the Buddha statue for a long time, and muttered in a low voice: "This palace has been stable for a long time, and the old slave thought that it would go on like this, but who knew that what should come would come after all." He was silent for a long time before he said in a hoarse voice,

"You'll be happy."

No one answered in the hall for a long time, only the dumb slave bowed his head and hung his head as if he had not heard anything.

Liu Hai looked at the Buddha statue quietly for a long time before reaching out to brush away the dust falling on the niche platform and sighed faintly.

……

Shen family.

It had been snowing heavily for several days, and a thick layer had accumulated in the Flynn courtyard.

Xue Nuo was almost wrapped in a rice dumpling, with a thick cloak on her body, a fluffy fox fur collar covering half of her chin, and a furry hat on her head, only a pair of eyes were exposed when she squatted under the corridor of the Flynn courtyard, and Xue Yu was half-leaning on the door beside her, wearing a purple jacket skirt and a slightly lighter cloak, smiling at the few people playing in the courtyard with a smile.

The four-room sons and young ladies who had followed Mrs. Shen in her mother's house to keep filial piety before also returned.

Shen Changrui and Shen Changlin led them to have a snowball fight in the yard, Shen Yuechan and Shen Xiangru built a snowman, and just found a silk scarf to make a scarf before the snowman could get it, the snowman was smashed off half of his head by the snowball that suddenly flew over.

Shen Yanran, a four-room girl who was less than five years old, stayed directly, and Shen Yuechan was so angry that she stomped her feet: "Third brother!" ”

Shen Changlin hurriedly raised his hand: "It's not me!" ”

Shen Yuechan turned her head to look at Shen Changrui.

Shen Changrui was stared at by several little girls, and reached out to drag Shen Changxu, who was still in the fourth room on the side, over with a snowball: "It was the fifth brother who did it." ”

Shen Changxu is only ten years old this year, he looks as strong as a calf, his face is red from the cold, he is pouting his ass and squatting on the side with a snowball, he doesn't know what is going on.

was dragged by Shen Changrui and bumped into the angry eyes of several sisters, Shen Changxu's face was dazed: "What's wrong?" ”
