Chapter 144: Gossip

Huo Ting and Xiao Qi in the imperial study were blushing and their necks were thick, the two stared at each other and refused to back down, no matter how much the big eunuch persuaded him, he couldn't wait to kneel down and knock one for Huo Ting, so as not to make the emperor angry again.

"Master Hou, it's a great thing that the emperor wants to accept Jingyi Gongzi as his righteous son, and no matter how many people can't ask for it. Jingyi Gongzi is your bloodline, the emperor loves him so much, it is beneficial to Jingyi Gongzi. After persuading him bitterly, the great eunuch didn't understand why the head of the Marquis of Zhenyuan couldn't turn around.

"Hmph, it's not uncommon!" Huo Ting didn't appreciate it, he didn't even look at the big eunuch, and clasped his hands into fists: "I heard that the emperor recruited ministers into the palace to ask about the Great Parade Army, the minister asked the emperor to put it down, The arrangements for the Great Parade are going well, if there is nothing else, the minister will retire!" Without waiting for Xiao Qixing to speak, Huo Ting turned around and walked out of the imperial study.

Huo Ting came and went quickly, and he didn't see an extra sack on the ground from beginning to end.

"The emperor's ......" The big eunuch carefully observed the emperor's face on the side, and saw that his iron was extremely blue and did not dare to step forward, and the entire Great Wei dared to be so rude to the emperor, but they became fish in the pond, and the emperor who did not go well should be more careful.

"Your Majesty, you also know the temper of the Hou Ye, he is so ......stubborn" and thought about saying a few more good words, so as not to make the emperor angry.

Xiao Qixing, who had a stiff face, waved his hand: "I see that Jingyi likes this child, so I will have this proposal, if I don't want to, forget it, I don't lack a son!" "I'll just be alone with that kid later.

"The emperor is wise." The big eunuch saw that the emperor didn't mind so much, so he breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly complimented.

Let the great eunuch step aside, and the imperial study will be quiet again. Xiao Qixing pondered for a moment and looked at the sack in the corner. This matter is very important, and Xiao Qixing is not prepared to hand it over to either Huo Ting or Guan Jun to deal with. The assassination involving foreign races was aimed at him, and all the people involved were not credible, including Huo Ting and Guan Jun, who fought with him.

At the beginning of the construction of the Terracotta Division, Huo Ting and Guan Jun had both seen the construction drawings, and the secret passage of the secret prison was clear. Although Jingyi's child is young, he looks at problems very objectively. can quietly hide gunpowder in the Terracotta Division overnight, and no one notices. This person must know everything about the Soldiers and Horses, so whether it is Huo Ting or Guan Jun, they are all suspicious, and they are all suspects before the matter is investigated.

Whether it was interrogation or gunpowder, Xiao Qixing decided to dispose of it secretly.

"Speechless."

When the words fell, a black shadow flashed out, and a man dressed in black knelt in the middle of the main hall of the imperial study and saluted respectfully.

"Keep this person secret for interrogation, and remember, don't kill anyone."

"Yes!" Speechless.

His eyes narrowed slightly, Xiao Qixing's fingers unconsciously stroked the beads on his wrist and rubbed gently, and his brain turned rapidly. Chen'er is right to Jingyi, such a good opportunity, to catch turtles in an urn to catch all the people behind the scenes.

dared to collude with foreigners in the capital to rebel, such a rebellious act, no matter who it was, he would never let it go!

Hook your fingers, let Wordless come closer, whisper a few words in his ear, and let him leave with the sack.

Contrary to the somewhat oppressive atmosphere in the imperial study, the nobles in the imperial garden all gathered around a woman who looked fifteen or sixteen years old and wore a goose-yellow skirt because of a sentence.

"What you said is true?" A fan embroidered with delicate patterns covered her slightly open mouth, and the woman in a light green skirt asked shyly.

Although being robbed of the limelight made Mu Mengyao a little unhappy, she was also curious about what kind of person the handsome young man who followed His Royal Highness the Prince, secretly looked at the woman in the goose yellow skirt, and vaguely remembered that she seemed to be Meng Qianqian, the second daughter of the Jingzhao Yin family.

Meng Qianqian's goose egg face was a little blushing because she suddenly became the focus of everyone, and a smug look flashed in her eyes.

"Well, I overheard that too. The famous Baixiang Building in the capital before, I don't know if you know? It is said that this Huo Gongzi is a frequent visitor there, and because of a small man, he fought with others and made a lot of noise. I also heard that he was the guest of many red card girls in the Qinlou Chu Pavilion. This kind of words made her bow her head shyly, as if she was too ashamed to speak, if it wasn't for a few people to ask, she would definitely not say it. Her father is Jing Zhaoyin, although in terms of rank, Jing Zhaoyin's official position is not low, but in the capital where he is the prince and the prince at every turn, Jing Zhaoyin is no different from a sesame petty official, and no one can afford to offend him.

Her father didn't even recommend her to participate in the draft, but she could find a scholar or a rich family in the capital to marry and live in her life, but she was a hundred unwilling. She thinks that she looks good, since she has such a good opportunity, why not fight, if she can enter the prince's mansion, the entire Meng family will rely on her in the future, and no aunt will dare to bully her mother anymore.

Her mother is obviously a wife, but because she gave birth to two daughters, she has not been treated by her in-laws. Under the pressure of his grandmother, his father brought two or three concubines into the house, and he wanted to give birth to a boy for the Meng family. Maybe her mother really didn't have the life to give birth to a son, and the concubines who entered the house gave birth to three sons one after another. Her mother injured her body after giving birth to her, and she could no longer have children.

If it weren't for his reputation, his father might have given up his wife and raised the concubine who gave birth to his eldest son to be his wife according to his grandmother's wishes. The eldest sister got married three years ago, but she just found a match, and her life after marriage was unsatisfactory.

She didn't want to live like her sister, so she would do whatever it took to enter the royal family, even if it was a concubine.

"Ahh How can such a person with no character and no virtue deserve to stand with His Royal Highness the Prince? ”

"That is to say, just having a skin, it turns out that he is such a lowly person, he feels dirty even more than he looks at it."

"I heard that he has been living a precarious life with his mother outside, and only later returned to the Hou Mansion, maybe because of this, he was contaminated with such a ninth-rate problem."

……

Ladies and gentlemen, every word you say to me is all disgust for Jingyi. Mu Mengyao, who had been silent, saw their disgusted appearance in her eyes, and agreed very much in her heart.

Xiao Yichen is like a god in her heart, and she will never allow such a man to follow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and affect His Royal Highness the Prince's reputation.

When a few noble ladies whispered, a palace maid came to pay the money, and Ying Ying bowed: "Ladies and gentlemen, the banquet is about to begin, and the ladies are chatting with the Queen Mother, and the ladies can go to the Queen Mother to say goodbye." ”
