Xiaosi was waiting outside, scratching his head.
After the secret guard went in, he didn't come out for a long time, which made him even more worried, not knowing what happened.
"Little Four."
Finally, when Mo Chuan called him, Xiaosi opened the door excitedly, walked out, and stood with his eyes down.
"Your Majesty, this servant is here."
He glanced out of the corner of his eye and found that the secret guard had left at some point, and Mo Chuan was the only one in the imperial study.
Xiao Si immediately became bolder and raised his head slightly to observe Mo Chuan's expression, but he found that Mo Chuan's expression was still as cold and calm as ever, with no expression at all on his face.
I don't know if he is happy or unhappy.
"Xiao Si, guess what is written in Zhui Feng's letter?"
Mo Chuan held a letter in his hand. It had been opened and contained only a thin piece of paper.
Xiaosi shook his head: "I can't guess it."
"It's okay to guess wrong, just be bold in your guess."
Xiaosi's heart moved.
He noticed that although there was no expression on the emperor's face, his tone was relaxed, which showed... that the emperor was in a good mood.
"Ah, I know this. This boy Zhui Feng must have taken a fancy to some girl outside, so he asked the emperor to grant him a marriage." Xiaosi said deliberately.
Mo Chuan shook his head: "That's not right. Zhui Feng is simply an ignorant idiot. I'm afraid he still can't tell the difference between girls and men. In his eyes, there are no men and women, only tasks."
Xiaosi chuckled: "Your Majesty is right, Zhui Feng is just a piece of wood."
Zhui Feng, who was thousands of miles away, suddenly sneezed inexplicably. He rubbed his nose and looked around inexplicably.
There's no wind.
"Keep guessing," Mo Chuan said.
"Then... Zhuifeng must have felt that the mission given to him by the emperor was too boring, so he asked to return to the palace." Xiao Si guessed again.
In fact, he didn't know that he was talking nonsense. The content of the letter must be related to the Queen, but he didn't dare to say it out loud.
His heart had long been tickled by that letter, but the emperor was deliberately trying to whet his appetite.
"Presumptuous!" Mo Chuan glared at him.
"The emperor asked the slave to make a bold guess. The emperor has such good words that he cannot punish the slave."
"That's all, I'm sorry you couldn't guess it, but I can tell you that you must have never imagined that this boy Zhui Feng actually asked me for an official position in his letter." Mo Chuan raised his eyebrows and lightly dusted the letter paper with his fingers.
"What? Asking for an official?" Xiao Si was startled and asked in astonishment: "Does Zhui Feng not want to be a guard anymore, but an official?"
Mo Chuan shook his head: "It's not that he wants to be an official, he wants to be an official for others."
"Someone else? Who?"
Xiao Si thought to herself, could it be that the Queen wants to be an official
He felt that he must have guessed wrong. Because since the founding of Western Chu, there has never been a precedent for women to serve as officials.
"Who else is there besides her?" Mo Chuan raised his head slightly, with indescribable pride in his expression.
So you guessed it right
Is it really the Queen who wants to be an official
Xiaosi's mouth was so wide that she couldn't close it.
"Your Majesty, you... you mean..." There was a person's name on his lips, but he didn't dare to say it. At the same time, his face was full of disbelief.
"Whatever you want to say, just say it boldly!" Mo Chuan glanced at him.
But Xiaosi didn't dare to mention Shen Ning's name in front of Mo Chuan even if he was brave enough.
