When Xu Beiyou returned home, Han Xuan had already come back one step ahead of schedule and was sitting in the main hall drinking tea.

Han Xuan lowered his head and took a sip of tea and asked, "Have you talked to Duanmu Ruisheng?"

"In three days, he will bring Duanmu Yu over. Xu Beiyou stood in front of Han Xuan and replied softly.

Han Xuan held the teacup in both hands and said softly, "Don't leave any hand tails." ”

Xu Beiyou said in a deep voice: "I know it in my heart. ”

Han Xuan asked, "How sure are you that you will recover the Immortal Sword Qi in Duanmu Yu's body?"

Xu Beiyou didn't hide it for a while, and said bluntly: "Fifty percent, when the time comes, it will be up to fate, if it is taken back, it means that God does not accept Duanmu Jade, if he can't take it back, then he can only blame his own thin life, and he has no blessing to continue to live." ”

Han Xuan snorted, splashed the residual tea in the cup, and got up to leave.

After Han Xuan walked away, Xu Beiyou sat in Han Xuan's position, resting his elbows on the armrests and supporting his forehead with his hands.

After a short time, Feng Lang came to Xu Beiyou's side, slightly respectful and cramped, and said in a low voice: "Young master." ”

Xu Beiyou asked, "How?"

Feng Lang said softly: "Today I went to the celebrant with the sign of Xiangye, and when I saw the chief eunuch Zhang Gonggong, he said that someone had been sent to handle that matter, please rest assured that the young master is." ”

Xu Beiyou snorted.

Feng Lang couldn't help but ask curiously, "Young Master, what is the matter?"

Xu Beiyou didn't hide it, and said bluntly: "It's about the Dark Guard Mansion, I want to know what Duanmu Ruisheng, the Governor of the Dark Guard Mansion who covers the sky with one hand, did in the twentieth year of Taiping and the first year of Chengping." ”

The Great Qi court paid attention to the way of controlling the size of the system, with the cabinet secondary auxiliary to check and balance the first auxiliary, the right governor to check and balance the left governor, the squire to check and balance the Shangshu, the local according to the inspection of the political envoys, and the command of the envoys in all places to check and balance the major forbidden armies, one large and one small, and the small to control the large.

Of course, the chief eunuch is no exception, and the chief eunuch is also used to balance the eunuch of the palm seal, although the chief eunuch does not have the right to approve the red to compete with the cabinet chamber, but he has the right to the governor to guard the mansion, only because the current eunuch is too trusted by His Majesty the Emperor, and the chief eunuch Zhang Bao is Zhang Baisui's son, so it seems that the chief eunuch is far less than the cabinet assistant Xuanhe, but after the next celebrant seals take the position, I am afraid it will be a different situation.

Today's chief bingbi is Zhang Bao, who can take the tribute in the palace as his own, and his power can be seen.

In terms of Xu Beiyou's current identity, he is still a lot worse than the chief eunuch, but with Han Xuan's face, and they are all people in the same boat, Zhang Bao is still willing to help Xu Beiyou.

Hearing the three words of the Secret Guard Mansion, Feng Lang didn't dare to continue to ask deeply, for fear of hearing something that he shouldn't have heard.

Xu Beiyou didn't have any scruples, and then said: "Actually, it's not a shameful thing, the celebrant has the responsibility of supervising the secret guard mansion, and there should be a file record on this matter, so I asked Zhang Bao to 'check', the reason why Zhang Bao didn't give an answer immediately is that it depends on the meaning of the top." ”

Feng Lang was shocked, above the chief eunuch, isn't there only two people, one is the eunuch with palm prints, and the other is His Majesty the current emperor.

No matter who it is, it is an amazing big man today, and for him Feng Lang, he is an unattainable celestial figure.

He never imagined that he could be so close to these big people in his life.

......

In the early morning with a slight chill, a man in a dark python robe walked into the imperial city.

The Tiger Battalion armor soldier who was responsible for defending the imperial city did not make too many obstacles to this person's swaggering into the imperial city, and even the leading commander was very familiar with the man's salute, and after the man responded with a smile, he entered the Chengtian Gate, and walked straight to the inner court without stopping.

Today's emperor Xiao Xuan only has one queen and two concubines, so there are not too many strict rules in the inner court, if it is a close person, even a man can enter directly.

The man who entered the inner court was no stranger, it was Xiao Xuan's eldest son, Xiao Bai, the king of Qi, and the person he wanted to see was his mother, Empress Xu.

Before coming to the Flying Frost Palace, after passing the ceremony, Xiao Bai entered the hall, where he saw Queen Xu who had just had breakfast, looking at his mother, Xiao Bai's mood was a little complicated, for him, there are two most important women in the world, one is the biological mother, the other is the sister of the compatriots, and now the mother and sister are not in harmony, but it gives him a little headache.

As a son, he can't blame his mother for anything, and as an elder brother, he can't bear to be too harsh on his sister, in his opinion, this matter should still be handled by his father, but his father chose to stand by, so he couldn't help but feel a little angry that he shouldn't have.

Queen Xu didn't think about it so much, she said that the child was the meat that fell from her mother's body, although Xiao Bai was already in her prime, but in the eyes of Queen Xu, who raised Xiao Bai in person, he would always be a child.

She looked at her son's increasingly angular face, looked at it carefully, as if she couldn't see enough, and said distressedly: "I haven't seen you for half a year, although my face is whiter, but I have lost weight, and I will stay longer when I come back this time." ”

Xiao Bai smiled: "The queen mother is wrong, it's not that she's thin, it's strong." ”

Empress Xu beckoned, let Xiao Bai take a few steps closer, then reached out and pinched his arm, and said softly: "In a blink of an eye, you have also been in Qizhou for ten years, and you can only come back a few times a year, and you will leave after staying for a few days each time, this time your father will officially canonize you as the crown prince, and the queen mother wants to beg your father to ask him to directly crown you as the crown prince and stay in the imperial capital in the future." ”

Xiao Bai half-jokingly said: "Queen Mother, it's about the crown prince's position, you can't talk nonsense, it's easy to make taboos." ”

Empress Xu lowered her eyes and said softly: "That's right, but he only has one son, you, who else can you seal if you don't seal it?"

Xiao Bai sighed and said: "The heavenly family has no relatives, and the emperor's heart is unpredictable. ”

"What are these words?" Queen Xu raised her hand to fight when she heard this, but she raised her hand and immediately put it down. First, Xiao Bai's skin is rough and thick, and it doesn't hurt or itch to hit it, and secondly, he is reluctant to fight. For so many years, between the mother and son, let alone fighting, there has never been even a red-faced heavy talk.

Xiao Bai pulled an embroidery pier and sat in front of Queen Xu, and said softly: "Mother...... Mother, in fact, I know that you have not had a good time these years, in the early years when the Queen Mother was alive, you, as a daughter-in-law, had to be careful everywhere, and later there was a case of the Xu family, and the uncle's family was also ......"

Xiao Bai paused for a moment, looked around slightly from the corner of his eye, and then said softly: "Over the years, you have supported the Xu family alone, this is love, but you have also committed the taboo of your father, so that your father has refused to give you any real power for so many years, for fear of raising a second relative, and now I have been absent from Beijing for many years, and I can't help you anything, fortunately, the girl in Zhinan is big, if you have anything unsatisfactory to discuss with her, it is better to talk to the mother and daughter." ”

Queen Xu pursed her lips and shook her head: "No one bullied my mother, and no one gave my mother any anger." ”

Xiao Bai said seriously: "Mother!"

Empress Xu straightened her face and said, "Mother is fine, really." As long as you are good, your mother will be satisfied, and you must not say this kind of thing again in the future. ”

Xiao Bai sighed and did not speak.
