Chapter 144: A Stick and a Date

"Aiqing, please speak."

Under the emperor's calm expression, there was a look of satisfaction that no one could understand.

Why didn't he think about making Princess Xie Yun Ashhang?

It's just that his background is there, and the incompatible relationship between the queen and Concubine Lian is in his eyes and in his heart.

Even if Xie Yunyan changed his background, he would call him as a colt early regardless of Xie Yunyan's consent or not.

If nothing else, it's for Xie Yunyan's observation of words and expressions that always knows his thoughts.

For example, now, the emperor has already guessed what Xie Yunyan is going to say.

Marrying Princess Huairou is bound to make the four princes and factions, such as Lian Shangshu, chilling.

Not to mention Concubine Lian, who doesn't know about it.

If you hit a stick, you have to pay a sweet date to appease.

This sweet jujube is naturally to be rewarded to the four princes.

In this way, the courtiers can be silenced, and the hearts of Concubine Lian and the four princes can also be appeased.

Xie Yunyan really lived up to his expectations and smiled:

Although this is not the time to mention this matter, Weichen really can't do it. Today, I just got a quick report, the king of inquiry abandoned the palace and absconded, the army is fighting, it is really difficult to draw out manpower to pursue the king of inquiry. It would be fine if the king fled to Jiangnan, but if the king chose extreme measures and fled to Xiliang across Gucheng Countyโ€”โ€”"

Needless to say, the rest of the words can be understood by others.

Xiliang and Qi have been at war for a long time, and although they have disappeared in recent years, they will no longer invade, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that Xiliang is recuperating.

Ask the king whether he is from the Qi country, although all the minions have been pulled out, there should be more than one or two pieces of information that have been collected.

There is still a Khitan in the north, and it is the limit that the border can draw out 80,000 troops, and then to support and capture the king of Xun, it can only be reinforced by Kyoto.

The emperor was silent, and glanced at Lian Shangshu with a complicated expression, as if he was pondering.

Even Shangshu's beard trembled.

Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, if you can't see this bit of thought, then he doesn't have to be a scholar.

Then he rose up, "Your Majesty, Weichen has the courage to recommend the Fourth Highness to lead the troops to pursue the King of Inquiry!" โ€

Xie Yunyan smiled kindly and sat back in his seat quietly.

Now that his goal has been accomplished, it's up to the old foxes to make a move.

"Oh?" The emperor turned his head sideways, glanced at the four princes, and asked with a smile: "There must be many dangers in this trip, fourth, are you willing?" โ€

"Erchen takes orders!" The fourth prince seemed to have expected this result, and although he got an errand to accumulate meritorious deeds, the taste of being secretly put together by the emperor and Xie Yunyan still made him very disgusted!

The emperor waved his hand and laughed loudly: "Okay, Feng - the fourth prince Chu Huaiye is a mighty general, leading 20,000 light horsemen, and set off from Yuzhou three days later to capture the rebel thief and ask the king!" โ€

Seeing the four princes receiving the order, the queen on the high platform smiled slightly, and the boulder hanging in her heart finally landed.

Her meaningful eyes swept over Xie Yunyan, and seeing that Xie Yunyan also happened to be staring at her, the queen nodded slightly, and finally, the dust had settled!

โ€ฆโ€ฆ

The palace banquet finally ended in the middle of the night.

Ning Shu leaned against the wall of the car a little tiredly, waiting for Xie Yunyan.

As soon as Xie Yunyan stepped out of the palace gate with his front foot, the voice of the Seven Princes came from behind.

"Master Xie, please stay, cough cough."

"Your Highness the Seven?" Xie Yunyan looked back when he heard the voice, although he was surprised, he still walked quickly to meet him.

"Your Highness the Seventh has something to do with Wei Chen?"

The Seven Princes clasped their hands together and solemnly bowed deeply to Xie Yunyan.

"I'm here to thank Master Xie."

Xie Yunyan smiled mildly: "The Seventh Highness is too serious, I haven't contributed much to this matter, it is all His Highness's profound blessings, and the fate should have this kind of creation." โ€

The Seventh Prince learned that Miao Jiang would send Sheng Luan grass soon, and he was overjoyed and had a rare drink.

At this time, his complexion was slightly ruddy, but he had a rare and excellent complexion.

He smiled faintly and said, "Don't thank you for your kindness, when Sheng Luancao arrives in Kyoto, I will trouble Mrs. Xie to heal me." โ€

Xie Yunyan arched his hand, "That's natural, Xie Mansion welcomes His Highness at any time." โ€

Sheng Luan Grass's ability to detoxify was proposed by Ning Shu, and naturally it should also be healed by Ning Shu.

Xie Yunyan didn't care much about this.

After the farewell salute, Xie Yunyan strode away.

The Seventh Prince hugged his cloak, his dark eyes suddenly lit up, and he whispered softly: "Since you helped me, then I should also give a return gift-"

After boarding the carriage, Xie Yunyan's eyes were tender, and he stroked the broken hair in front of Ning Shu's forehead, and said with a doting tone: "Tired, right?" โ€

Ning Shu shook her head and said calmly: "There are endless good shows to watch tonight, how can you be tired?" โ€

Xie Yunyan also felt that the dancing skills of the Holy Maiden of Miao Jiang were too weird, and asked lightly: "That group of butterflies suddenly flew here, does Madame know the strangeness?" โ€

"Hmm." Ning Shu twisted a piece of hibiscus cake and handed it to Xie Yunyan's mouth, at the banquet, she kept observing Xie Yunyan and found that he hadn't eaten much at all.

"It's just a child's trick."

Xie Yunyan ate hibiscus cake and said curiously: "Children can not do things for husbands, please Mrs. Solve your doubts." โ€

Ning Shu glanced at him with a faint smile, "Of course Husband, that thing is very common in Miaojiang." It's just a low-level Gu worm, which can't harm people, and can only attract bees and butterflies. โ€

"Madame knows so much, I admire and admire my husband!" Xie Yunyan looked at Ning Shu with incomparably adoring star eyes, Ning Shu was stunned for a moment, and casually pinched another piece of hibiscus cake and stuffed it into her mouth.

smiled: "I can't stop your mouth if I eat." โ€

Xie Yunyan innocently said that his mouth could still speak besides eating.

Especially for a cabinet minister like him!

Back at the Guogong Mansion, Shuang'er was carrying a basin of water and hurriedly walked by.

Seeing her solemn face, Ning Shu asked puzzledly, "Shuang'er?" What are you going to do in a hurry? โ€

Shuang'er was stunned for a moment, as if she had seen a savior, and looked at Long Shan behind Ning Shu and said, "Madam, you are back!" Sister Long Shan, the Xuanfeng guards want to freshen up, and the slave is preparing water for himโ€”ahโ€”"

As she spoke, Frost walked down the stairs with a basin full of hot water, the soles of her feet loosened, and she staggered a few steps before she could barely stand still.

But all the hot water in the basin has been spilled.

Long Shan shook his head helplessly and walked over to support Shuang'er, "Be careful, this step is slightly loose, how many times have I told you?" โ€

"Iโ€”I forgot in a hurry." Shuang'er stuck out her tongue at the mischievous Chong Long Shan, grabbed Long Shan's arm and said, "I went to the housekeeper to talk about it last time, why hasn't it been repaired for so long?" โ€

Xie Yunyan glanced at Yuan Wu, and Yuan Wu immediately stepped forward to look at the steps.

Moving away from the steps, I found an egg-sized stone cushion underneath, no wonder Frost would lose its center of gravity when stepping on it.

After taking out the stone, Yuan Wu waved it proudly at Xie Yunyan, "Master, don't bother the official family to repair it, the subordinates have already taken out the stone." โ€

Ning Shu didn't do anything originally, she looked at the stone in Yuan Wu's hand, her eyes suddenly froze, and she pulled Xie Yunyan and walked towards the house.

"I probably know where the official silver of the Great Sky Temple is hidden!"
