Yongshou Palace is no different from the past, Qi Miao and Bai Xiyun followed behind the second prince to bypass the shadow wall, stepped on the neat bluestone brick floor and walked slowly to the main hall, and went to the Danqi, but saw Su Gongcheng beside the emperor talking to Luoxia at the door.

Seeing the second prince coming, Father-in-law Su saluted with Luo Xia and the palace maids.

Qi Miao and Bai Xiyun also saluted Father-in-law Su and Luo Xia.

"The slave was talking about Mrs. Shizi, and Mrs. Shizi came. Gonggong Su said with a smile: "Just now, the emperor also said that I want to eat the medicinal food prepared by Mrs. Shizi today, as well as the mustard duck paw you made." ”

Qi Miaowan smiled and said, "It seems that the emperor has taken a fancy to come here today." ”

Everyone laughed.

The emperor's low and smiling voice came from the hall: "Look at this girl, you are so spoiled that you even dare to make jokes." ”

The emperor in a brilliant purple robe walked out slowly, and his dragon and tiger steps were very majestic, but the smile on his face diluted the sternness. Wan Guifei, who was wearing a light lotus tunic skirt on the side, bent her arms and held a pea-green light gauze shawl, graceful and luxurious, elegant and smart, with a melancholy and noble beauty, just like a hibiscus fairy. The two of them stood together, against the backdrop of the splendid palace, it was really a very beautiful picture.

Everyone knelt down and bowed together, shouted long live, and greeted Wan Guifei.

"Let's all be flat. The emperor raised his hand casually and said with a smile: "Bai Xiyun came just in time, I happened to be free today, and I was looking for you to kill a game, but you left me with an unbreakable endgame last time, and I couldn't sleep well." ”

Bai Xiyun smiled and arched his hand: "The emperor is joking, it can't be called an endgame, but you can see it clearly from another angle." ”

"Oh, come over here and talk to me. The emperor actually took Bai Xiyun's hand and pulled him to the palace, intimacy wanted to treat his nephew.

Qi Miao hung her head and didn't dare to reveal the slightest emotion.

The second prince didn't care, and said with a smile: "Mother, let the prince show you the pulse." ”

Wan Guifei let out a lukewarm "um". Turn around like a temple.

Qi Miao and the second prince followed, Qi Miao smiled bitterly and said, "Your Highness will not be able to call me Mrs. Shizi in the future." ”

"How?"

"The premise that I am Mrs. Shizi is my husband-in-law, and now that both of us have been expelled from the house, you also know, my father-in-law said that I want to remove my husband-in-law Zongmu from the name, and I am not even allowed to have the surname Bai, how can I talk about the son, and how can I talk about Mrs. Shizi?" Qi Miao's tone was bitter, and he lowered his head and sighed.

What she said did not avoid people, because she knew that this matter could not be hidden from anyone, the second prince would tell Wan Guifei, and the emperor's banner in Dongchang would also return to the courtiers in the city, even if none of them said it, she also believed that if she didn't know it today, they would definitely know it tomorrow.

The emperor and Bai Xiyun, who were sitting in the side hall, were both in their hands.

The emperor asked, "Really, are you going to remove you?"

Bai Xiyun didn't have any expression on Bai Junxiu's face, just nodded lightly.

The emperor looked at him like this, but he felt reluctant for some reason. If he took the opportunity to complain or complain, the emperor might feel a little better, but this kid obviously had the opportunity to explain, but he didn't speak. He also asked his quirky little daughter-in-law to speak.

The emperor said, "Qi, come here." ”

Qi Miao had just opened the medicine box, took out the pulse pillow and put it on the table, when he heard the emperor's voice. raised her eyes to look at Wan Guifei, and Wan Guifei nodded at her.

When their eyes met, Qi Miao felt Wan Guifei's reassuring meaning.

But outsiders looked at Wan Guifei as cold as usual.

The second prince was a little worried about Qi Miao, so he followed Qi Miao to the side hall where the emperor and Bai Xiyun were playing chess.

"Your Majesty. "Qi Miao saluted.

The emperor held a cannon in his hand, and he didn't say a word, just played with it, and said: "Tell me, why did you get you out? If you do something wrong, I will punish you, if it is about the same, I will go and help you talk to An Luhou, and let you go home after all." ”

Qi Miao's heart warmed when she heard it.

Although the person in front of him is the most capable person in this feudal dynasty, he is also Bai Xiyun's father. She has always believed in the inexplicable emotional echo between blood and family, otherwise the emperor would not be so special to Bai Xiyun.

Qi Miao looked at Bai Xiyun.

Although she wanted to say it, she didn't know the scale, for fear of provoking the emperor. And I don't know what Bai Xiyun means.

Bai Xiyun stood up and saluted: "Your Majesty, the minister must have made a mistake to make his father unhappy, there is a good saying, the king wants the minister to die, the minister has to die, the father wants the son to die, and the son does not die." If the minister's father said one day that he wanted to take back the life given to the minister, the minister would never hesitate. is not wrong with my father in this matter, please don't ask the emperor to ask. ”

"I didn't say what Bai Yongchun did wrong. The emperor raised his eyebrows: "You defend your Lao Tzu so much, could it be that he really did something wrong?"

Bai Xiyun and Qi Miao both lowered their eyes and shut up.

The Son does not speak of the Father.

The fact that these two children can still abide by this etiquette in front of the emperor makes the emperor like it very much.

The second prince said: "Father, the son knows something. ”

"Oh, by the way, you and Bai Xiyun are close, so you can talk about it. ”

The second prince glanced at Qi Miao, hesitated and said, "This matter is a long story, the mother concubine is still waiting for the Qi family to see the disease, why don't you let him go first?"

The emperor also looked at Qi Miao.

Today, Qi Miao is wearing a goose-yellow arrow-sleeved jacket and a light green eight-panel skirt, although the clothes are new, the material is not bad, but it doesn't fit well. And she only used a silver-inlaid jade hairpin on her head to pull her hair. Although the appearance is stunning, it is a little hasty to dress up.

The emperor has read countless beauties in the palace, so he naturally understands these things of the woman's family, so he looked at the second prince with some doubts, and then said, "Then let's go." ”

Qi Miao bowed and retreated.

Seeing her leave, the emperor asked: "You two grew up together, and it is not an exaggeration to say that you are brothers, I am not a person who likes to beat around the bush, so if there is anything to say, just say it." Pointing at the second prince again: "Bai Xiyun is inconvenient to say, you can say it." ”

"Yes. The second prince thought about it, and said bluntly: "Father, when Chu Zijin was seriously ill, he said this family business, but he actually wanted to be happy. ”

The emperor was dumbfounded.

Although the emperor has Dongchang's banner and brocade guards in hand, it can be said that he has the most powerful and delicate intelligence network in the world, but he has not paid attention to the Bai family, a "small family" because he doesn't know much about these pasts, what he knows, is that Bai Xiyun is said to be a sick ghost who is about to die, and he can still get better.

The emperor nodded and said, "It can be seen that Chongxi is still right." Qi's medical skills are superb, and even the illness of the third child of the Anjun Wang family can be alleviated, and I think Bai Xiyun will definitely be cured in the future. ”

Bai Xiyun smiled contentedly and nodded.

The second prince said: "Father, but it was actually their second daughter who Qi Dayong promised to marry Zijin. The Qi family has a total of three daughters, the eldest daughter and the second daughter were born to Qi Dayong's original partner Han, and the second daughter was born to the stepfamily Miao, at the beginning, An Luhou actually told Zijin about the second daughter of the Qi family, but because there were some unknown transactions, the Miao family felt sorry for their own daughter, so they forced the eldest daughter of the Qi family to marry with the happiness of the eldest daughter who was pregnant at the time, but no one thought that Xiao Qi's medical skills could cure Bai Zijin. An Luhou's temperament, his father should know something. At the beginning, Zijin was indeed dying, An Luhou said that he was marrying a wife for Zijin, but in fact, he also prepared a beauty for himself to raise at home, and this matter was nodded by Qi Dayong and his wife. ”

"Ridiculous. The emperor said in a deep voice: "This is really ridiculous, second brother, don't lie to me just to talk to your brother." ”

The second prince hurriedly saluted: "The ministers don't dare! This matter is indeed incredible, but didn't you also know last time that the Miao clan arranged for the bandits to kidnap the Qi clan?"

The Emperor nodded.

The second prince continued: "This An Luhou has always had a heart for the Qi family, and the battle in the mansion can be imagined, after Zijin's body gradually improved, in order to protect the Qi family, he closed the door to the courtyard where they lived, and did not want to interact with other houses in the mansion. An Luhou was sick and dismissed from his post a while ago, and he has been depressed in his heart, but now the illness has been cured by Qi's family, and he can move around again, which coincides with Qi Dayong's abandonment of Miao's affairs, An Luhou and his in-laws are not very happy, and when they return home, they go to Zijin's yard to make a fuss, saying that Zijin is not filial piety and disrespect, and Zijin and Qi should not be allowed to take away a stitch and thread, so even the minions who took them to Qinyuan were driven away. The old lady of the Bai family did not approve of opening an ancestral hall to get rid of Zong, but Mrs. An Luhou did not listen, as if she wanted to favor the second son. Because of the siege in two days, Erchen went to look for Zijin yesterday, just in time for them to leave, Mrs. An Luhou and her subordinates were looting Qinyuan, that scene was really ...... Appalling. ”

"Ransack?"

"Yes. The place where he passed was like a wasp transiting, whether it was a master or a slave, when he saw a good one, he carried it into his arms, and Qi's clothes and jewelry were probably looted. Erchen knew that Zijin had saved up money to buy a Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the city, so he hurried over, and when I went, they had just arrived. They walked over in a group. From Ping'an Fang, Marquis of Anlu, all the way to the outskirts of the city. The second prince said heartbrokenly: "Zijin is not in good health, Qi is three months pregnant, because he didn't have silver with him, he could only walk." Anyway, Erchen was really angry when he saw it. asked Zijin and Qi's family, these two stuffy gourds didn't speak, and they only found out after inquiring about the minions. ”

For a while, there was silence in the side hall.

The emperor's confidant, Gonggong Su, was already shaking his head and sighing. The emperor's face sank like water.

The second prince said: "Father, there is not a word in what the sons say today, and they will never dare to deceive their father." Please ask your father to call the shots for Bai Zijin. ”
