Pei Qingyan did not speak.

The black bird looked at him in surprise.

What's wrong with Lord Pei today?

He stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Pei Qingyan.

Pei Qingyan reacted.

"Your Excellency, are you alright?" The black bird asked with concern.

Pei Qingyan shook his head.

After half a sound, he said in a deep voice: "In the future, if everything you want in the palace, you will send it according to your orders, and you don't need to ask more." ”

"Huh?"

How can the black bird be by Pei Qingyan's side for so long, how can he be stupid, as soon as Pei Qingyan said this, he immediately understood, dare to love the information of Youzhou was passed on to the emperor?

What does the emperor mean by this?

However, Pei Qingyan didn't say much, and he didn't want to ask much.

For some words, it is enough to click on it.

The two talked about some official matters again, and Pei Qingyan asked him out.

In the palace.

The emperor took the dossier from the people below and looked at it carefully.

Father-in-law Fuquan waited on the side, and said with a low smile: "Your Majesty, the people from the Embroidery Division said that when I sent the file today, I met Master Pei, and Lord Pei seems to have known that His Majesty wants these things." ”

The emperor was stunned and frowned.

"And how did he react?"

Father-in-law Fuquan said with a smile: "Master Pei is Your Majesty's nephew, and he is loyal to His Majesty, so naturally he will not object, and His Majesty's move is also for his good, after all, he is young, even if he is strong, he is afraid that he will deviate from the path and miss the future when he is in charge of the embroidery department alone." ”

The emperor snorted coldly, how could he not see that he was deliberately saying this to please himself.

He said in a deep voice: "I am the emperor, the idea of forming the embroidery department was given to him by me, he is my right-hand man, I naturally will not treat him badly, I checked the past files, just to see what cases he has handled, how to deal with the cases." ”

"Yes." Father-in-law Fuquan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty's hard work, it's really singable and crying, if it is someone else, Your Majesty is too lazy to bother with him, so Lord Pei relies on the relationship of the eldest princess to let Your Majesty worry so much." ”

The emperor was noncommittal.

The eldest princess's sister saved his life, and he was naturally grateful.

So he raised Pei Qingyan by his side since he was a child, regarded him as if he had come out, and gave him higher favor and honor than the princes and princesses.

In such a situation, Pei Qingyan should be content.

The emperor said to Fuquan fairly: "You order to go down, call Yan'er into the palace tomorrow, and accompany me to eat together." ”

Father-in-law Fuquan replied: "Yes." ”

Day 2.

Pei Qingyan received the edict, changed his clothes and entered the palace.

The emperor was already waiting for him in the palace.

The dishes on the table are very light, most of them are dishes from the eldest princess's mansion.

After Pei Qingyan entered the hall, he first saluted the emperor, and the emperor said lightly: "Sit down." ”

"Yes."

He pulled his robe and sat down.

The emperor waved his hand, and immediately someone brought wine.

Emperor Duanming asked Father-in-law Fuquan to personally pour a cup for each of them, and then asked everyone to retreat.

"Yesterday, I asked Xiao Quanzi to go to the Embroidery Division to get the file, and after reading it, I realized that you have helped me do so many big things over the years, and you have worked hard."

The Emperor spoke lightly.

Pei Qingyan frowned slightly.

His instincts told him something was wrong.

According to his relationship with the emperor, the emperor should not be like this.

But now that the emperor has spoken, he must also respond.

So, Pei Qingyan stood up and arched his hand: "It's all the duty of the minister, Your Majesty has a good reputation." ”

Emperor Duanming raised his hand and motioned for him to sit down.

Only then did Pei Qingyan sit down again.

Emperor Duanming smiled: "In the blink of an eye, you are already twenty-two years old, and I think you were only so old when I just carried you back to the palace." ”

He spoke, gesticulating.

That was Pei Qingyan's figure when he entered the palace when he was a child.

Pei Qingyan watched silently, and Emperor Duanming continued: "You do things for me, do your best, I see it in my eyes, the reason why I gave you and Danyang a marriage before is also to let you get married as soon as possible, I don't want to see you lonely, I am old after all, I can't live for many years, and I can't protect you for a lifetime, if I leave, the old ministers you offended before will definitely attack you in groups, the prince is young and weak, and he can't help you too much." ”

As soon as the emperor's words fell, Pei Qingyan suddenly looked frightened and stood up excitedly.

"Why did Your Majesty say this, Your Majesty is in good health, long live long live, long live, if anyone dares to be unfavorable to Your Majesty, even if the minister goes to the soup and fire, he will never give up."

Pei Qingyan responded excitedly.

This time, the emperor did not rush to ask him to sit down.

Instead, he looked at him quietly.

Nephew Uncle Xiao, in fact, Pei Qingyan and Emperor Duanming look a little similar.

If you look closely, the eyebrows, eyes and nose look like they are carved out of a mold.

He used to treat him as a parent.

It's a pity......

The child has grown up after all.

When he grows up, he is no longer his child.

Emperor Duanming picked up the wine cup, took a sip of himself, and said: "Yan'er, I am going to set up another Governor Division, which complements you, you supervise hundreds of officials, ask for orders for the people, and are in charge of prisons, and the Governor Department will be used to guard the palace and collect intelligence, what do you think?" ”

Pei Qingyan's heart sank fiercely.

Guarding the palace ban and collecting intelligence has always been done by the embroidery division before this.

And now, the emperor wants to revoke the rights of the embroidery department, and he is undoubtedly suspicious of him.

Pei Qingyan felt bitter in his heart, but he had no reason to refuse.

He said respectfully: "Your Majesty Xie is sympathetic, the minister is feeling that the affairs of the Embroidery Department are busy, and the department is too busy, if there is the help of the Governor's Department, the efficiency of the work will inevitably be faster, and more worries can be shared for Your Majesty." ”

The Emperor looked at him silently.

He cut his power, and not only did he not have any resentment, but he thanked him.

Oh, who believes?

Emperor Duanming said lightly: "Okay, there are only two of us nephews and uncles here, you don't want to take a bite of your majesty and a majesty's, or call my uncle as usual, come and sit down." ”

Pei Qingyan straightened up and walked over and sat down respectfully.

The emperor took the flask with his own hands and wanted to pour wine for him.

Where did Pei Qingyan dare, he hurriedly reached out and took the wine jug, poured it for Emperor Duanming, and filled a glass for himself.

Emperor Duanming said earnestly: "I don't know if you will blame me for doing this, but you have to believe that I am doing this for your own good, my body is not as good as a day, I always feel night sweats at night recently, and there are many dreams, and the dreams are all more than ten years ago." ”

"You are in charge of the embroidery department, although you are in a high position, but you are always on the cusp, I am really afraid, I am afraid that one day if I fall, you will be targeted by their old ministers, if you have three long and two short, let me go down to see my sister."

The emperor spoke with sincerity.

Pei Qingyan couldn't help but be a little moved.
