Facing Nan Jinyan's inquiry, Xiao Lizi hurriedly said: "Lord Shoufu went to the Queen Mother's bedroom, and other slaves and maids were not allowed to enter, so the slave couldn't go in, and I don't know what he was doing inside." ”

Nan Jinyan nodded, he went straight over, he wanted to see in person what Xiao Qian could find.

When Nan Jinyan entered, he saw Xiao Qian in front of the spiritual platform.

"See the Emperor."

"Excuse me, have you found anything?"

Xiao Qian has thought about the matter of the jade seal, and he can't say it, otherwise the people around the emperor may leak it out, and it will be troublesome at that time.

Thinking of this, he showed a helpless expression, "If you go back to the emperor, you won't find anything valuable." The room has been cleaned by the palace maid, so even if there is a clue, it has been destroyed, and now I don't know where to start. ”

Hearing this, Nan Jinyan was a little disappointed but a little lucky. He was conflicted and wanted to find out where the Queen Mother's body had gone, but he was afraid that Xiao Qian would find clues that were unfavorable to him.

He pretended to blame himself a little, "This matter is also my mistake, I couldn't find a clue at the time, so I allowed the princess to let people take care of everything here." The princess said that the Queen Mother loved to clean, and if it was dirty here, she would definitely be unhappy when she returned. After all, we all thought that the Queen Mother had left temporarily before, and it was impossible not to come back. But now several days have passed, and the Queen Mother still hasn't heard from her. ”

"If I had thought it was so serious, I wouldn't have done it. You also know the character of the Queen Mother, I hate it when others ask about his private affairs, and his personality is also a bit arrogant, I have said several times before that I want to leave the palace to go outside to take a look, so when the Queen Mother disappeared at the beginning, I thought she left to go out for a walk, and I didn't think it might be serious until I didn't come back for a few days. ”

"I am also responsible for this matter, if I am more careful, I will look for the Queen Mother when she is gone, maybe I will find the Queen Mother a long time ago, and now I don't know where the Queen Mother has gone, and the ministers of the court are also waiting for the results. So I hope that Shousuke-sama can solve this problem. ”

Nan Jinyan said such a big talk, Xiao Qian didn't speak, he was thinking about a question.

Seeing Nan Jinyan stop and ask him, he spoke: "The emperor doesn't need to blame himself too much, how can this be your fault?" The Queen Mother has a strong personality, and at the beginning, even if you interfered in this matter, there might be no result. ”

"But I don't understand what the emperor means, you let the ministers solve this problem, how do you want to solve it! If the minister must find the whereabouts of the queen mother, the minister may not be able to do it. ”

"Of course I know that this is a bit difficult for a strong man, after all, the Queen Mother disappeared without a trace, and no one knows where she went? But now all the civil and military officials are waiting for this result, and there is no way to delay it any longer. ”

But in fact, the Queen Mother did disappear. Of course, if you tell everyone the news now, it will definitely cause agitation. Xiao Qian was also worried.

"So I hope that Shousuke-sama will solve this problem and minimize the negative impact."

Hearing this, Xiao Qian was a little skeptical: "Your Majesty, no news is equal to good news." Now I don't know if the Queen Mother has met well, is it a bit inappropriate to do this? ”

He felt that Nan Jinyan was not particularly afraid that the Queen Mother would not come back, but was just worried about the rebellion of the civil and military officials.

Nan Jinyan was a little embarrassed, "Don't misunderstand, Lord Shoufu, I was also forced by the civil and military officials to be in a hurry, and I don't know how to deal with it." ”

Xiao Qian nodded, he also believed that the emperor gave such an order because he didn't think it through, after all, he was only a teenager, how could he be all-encompassing when he considered national affairs?

If the first emperor had not died, then he would still be a carefree prince. At this time, at most, I am learning from my husband, and I don't need to stand alone, so from a certain point of view, the emperor and the princess are actually pitiful.

He said seriously: "Your Majesty, the ministers have their own opinions on this matter. ”

"If you have any opinions, just say them. Although I am the emperor, you also know the situation, because I am still young, so I can't grasp many things well. When my father was still alive, Shousuke-sama was a trustworthy person. So now I hope you don't hold back and tell me what you think. This is for the sake of the good of the people. ”

Xiao Qian was silent for a moment, he nodded, since Nan Jinyan said so, he didn't want to worry a lot, just like Nan Jinyan said, he had to think about the people of Limin.

"Your Majesty, since you trust the minister so much, then the minister will be outspoken."

"Please Shousuke-sama speak up, even if it is inappropriate, I will never blame it."

"The minister feels that the current situation is very serious, why do so many people pay attention to the whereabouts of the Queen Mother? Because the Queen Mother affects the situation of the entire imperial court. The emperor is still young, which makes some people feel that there is an opportunity. So if the Queen Mother is not there, then they may act in advance. ”

"Some time ago, when the Queen Mother was dealing with court affairs, there were many people who were not busy, but they didn't dare to show it too obviously, but now it's completely different, and the court openly refuted the emperor's decision. Nothing like this would have happened before. ”

"Yes, I know it, but I can't help it. Some ministers have great power in their hands, so they have nothing to fear, and in their opinion, this is just a young emperor who does not have much in the group. ”

said that he was a little sad, he used to think that without the power of the queen mother, he would be concentrated in his own hands, and he would become a veritable king of a country.

But now I realize that things are often more serious and tricky than I think. If I had known this, I wouldn't have taken this step, at least not so quickly.

Xiao Qian looked at Nan Jinyan's appearance, and was a little unbearable, so he comforted: "Don't be too sad, the emperor shouldn't be too sad, things haven't reached the point of being out of control." As long as the affairs of the Queen Mother are unclear for a day, those people will not dare to act. Therefore, the emperor's investigation of the queen mother's affairs can only be carried out secretly, and the longer it can be delayed, the more beneficial it will be to the emperor. ”

Nan Jinyan wondered, "What the adults think is exactly the opposite of what I think. But now I think your words make more sense. I really thought it would be better to find out about the Queen Mother earlier, but now I finally understand. ”

"You can't be in a hurry about this matter, if the Queen Mother comes back, it will be a good thing. In case the situation is not good, the emperor should also have plenty of time to prepare. ”

"I can only rely on you now, and my lord must help me get through this. Otherwise, I can only give up my father's country. ”
