In front of the imperial study room of Tianchen Palace, the great eunuch Liu Xi was standing at the door wearing clothes like ordinary eunuchs. Only the three golden horizontal stripes on the cuffs indicated that he was the great eunuch of Tianchen Palace. In this palace, Liu Xi There will always be only one master, the current Emperor Zongwen.
Of course, most people in the palace are polite. When they see the old eunuch who is close to Emperor Zongwen, they will bow respectfully and call him "Eunuch An". Even the Queen will politely ask him "Eunuch" when she sees him. Therefore, in the palace, Eunuch Liu and Liu Xi were synonymous with power.
Of course, this word cannot be used on His Highness Prince Xuan!
So, it's almost dinner time, and His Highness Prince Xuan hasn't calmed down yet. He is still talking in the imperial study room. Looking at his posture, Emperor Zongwen doesn't agree to come down. This matter can't be settled. As for what the emperor said. Liu Xi really didn't dare to steal it, so he simply stood in front of the door and waited.
A young eunuch appeared around the corner of the palace. He took a sneak peek. Liu Xi's face darkened. He raised his hand and cooed at the young eunuch standing outside the door. This was so cool that he even dared to deal with matters related to Tianchen Palace. Snooping is really life-threatening.
The little eunuch ran over smartly and grabbed the eunuch who had just retracted his head. He pulled him aside and scolded him before letting him go. Then he walked back to Liu Xi and lowered his voice and reported back: "He is from the empress, please ask the emperor." We will have dinner there, do we need to go to Tianfeng Palace? It is said that the Queen Mother forwarded a letter from Queen Yan to the Emperor."
The Queen of Yan State is Princess Yun Ruochang, the biological daughter of the Queen Mother, and Bai Yihao's biological mother. Although she is married to the State of Yan, she still exchanges letters with her brother from time to time, and the letters usually reach Emperor Zongwen directly. Here, at this time, it was passed to the Queen Mother, and then conveyed by the Queen, but it was a little different from usual.
"What did you say?" Liu Xi thought for a while and asked.
"My servant asked him to go back first. He said that if the emperor comes with an order later, he will naturally inform the queen first." The little eunuch spoke in a smooth voice, with a sharp accent and a child's voice, but it was not unpleasant. .
"That's right, you little bastard. Let's go outside to provide support first. When His Highness Prince Xuan comes out, we will bring the tea in." Liu Xi smiled and scolded him and patted his head. No matter what, the Queen's face must be given to her, even though it is not Knowing when that person would come out, it was always right to wait first. Thinking that His Highness's publicity was really limitless, and the Emperor was so angry that he kicked people out several times, he shook his head.
The emperor is such a strong person, but he still has no choice but to see his own son! As a slave, he looked anxious for the emperor.
"Yes, I will go and prepare now." The young eunuch responded and ran quickly.
With a "clang", an angry voice came from the royal study: "You evil son, you are going to make me angry to death."
"Father, my son only wants her. No one else wants her. Don't be in a hurry to choose a beautiful girl for your son. Anyway, the son you chose doesn't like her, so you've ruined her life. You're going to I can't explain it to your ministers." Feng Jueran said in a lazy voice, nonchalantly.
Liu Xi sighed, okay! The father and son are doing it again! Smashed the tea.
He took the tea from the young eunuch and walked quietly to the door. As expected, he saw Emperor Zongwen sitting angrily at the table, with broken white jade porcelain all over the floor.
On the other side, Feng Jue dyed an ordinary purple robe, and the purple robe was blooming with peonies outlined in gold embroidery. The handsome face was more blazing and noble than the peonies on the purple robe.
Being used to seeing the ups and downs in the palace, Liu Xi had to sigh. This person's appearance is so top-notch, and she is so similar to Concubine Xian back then. No wonder the emperor gave in again and again for this. Who let that person die? It's so miserable! He is the son of his beloved, and if he shows even a little bit of pity, how can the emperor withstand it...
He carefully put the tea aside, and the little eunuch following him had already stepped forward to clean up the broken porcelain that fell on the ground.
"Father, my son is not very old now, so what if he waits for another year? Anyway, even if it is decided now, it will still take more than a year before the ceremony is completed. She will have already entered her filial piety period by then, and her children are not as good as those of her elder brothers. If you want to make progress, it is enough to marry the daughter of a third-grade official. Anyway, the prince will be idle all his life and he does not need help from any wife clan." Feng Juoran raised his head and looked at Emperor Zongwen.
These words were extremely scoundrel, but they made Emperor Zong Wen so angry that he couldn't say anything. He picked up the tea cup and wanted to take a sip, only to find that it was hot. He simply placed it heavily on the table with an ugly look on his face: "Who is that girl?" People like this don’t know, you just want to marry her as your concubine, how can you, how old you are, be able to control that rich beauty in your house.”
"Father, don't worry, I will definitely treat her well. The group of girls in Erchen's backyard will not dare to make her angry. No one will bully her even if they are small. Since I personally begged in front of Father, , I will naturally treat her well, otherwise I would be sorry for my father's face." Seeing Emperor Zongwen's words loosened, Feng Juoran had a smile on her face, her phoenix eyes curled up, and she hurriedly promised, It was almost written on his face that as long as Emperor Zongwen agreed to this, he would be able to do anything he asked him to do in the future.
Such a helpless look is so infuriating that I can't even say anything.
As expected, he was the most dandy prince. He dared to speak so sweetly just for a woman. Liu Xi couldn't help but shook his head secretly.
"You go, I'm tired." Emperor Zongwen looked very tired, touching his hands with one hand and waving with the other.
"What do you mean by your father?" Feng Juoran stood up and asked with salivation on his face.
"I'll wait until I figure it out." Emperor Zongwen said helplessly.
"Your Highness, please come this way." Liu Xi had a sharp eye and hurriedly stepped forward to open the curtain respectfully.
Although Feng Juoran didn't look satisfied, he wasn't very angry either. He even raised his eyebrows at him in a rare good-tempered manner. The old eunuch was so frightened that he didn't dare to say a word. This guy really can't be messed with. Get up.
Waiting for Feng Jueran to come back, Liu Xi wiped his sweat while entering the study. He saw Emperor Zongwen still standing in front of the window, silent. Thinking about what happened just now, the emperor still felt confused. That son was actually like this. He talked to his father and even came to the imperial study room over a woman.
"Liu Xi, is there someone from the Queen's Palace just now?" Emperor Zongwen, a middle-aged man about fifty years old, sat down and said, touching his forehead.
"Yes, the Queen asked the Emperor if he wanted to go over for dinner, and there is a letter from Princess Yunruo that he wanted to show the Emperor." Liu Xi lowered his hand and replied softly.
"Xiao Ba wants to marry Mo Huawen's legitimate daughter as his concubine." Emperor Zongwen sighed.
Liu Xi knew Mo Huawen, not only that he was familiar with him in the past, but that Mo Huawen was an old friend of the emperor when he was hiding in the residence, and he and Liu Xi were also considered acquaintances. It was only after he defeated the emperor and entered the palace that Mo Huawen was released to Yuncheng. It has faded. It is said that he is marrying the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Fuguo. Could it be that daughter that Prince Xuan wants to marry? If so, even though Mo Huawen is now in the third rank, the background of this young lady is not low.
It’s just that the Emperor’s favorite Princess Xuan is still missing a little!
"Your Majesty, His Highness Prince Xuan has always been willful. If you don't agree..." Liu Xi only felt that he was sorry for Mo Huawen for marrying His Highness Prince Xuan, who liked impermanence. With that His Highness's temperament, he could like anything or not. It's hard to guarantee how long his temporary passion will last.
As the legitimate daughter of Mo Huawen, it was definitely enough for her to marry a descendant of an aristocratic family as her first wife. I just lamented that her fate was not good, and she was favored by His Highness Prince Xuan, and she could be somewhat cherished.

Emperor Zongwen didn't speak. He was silent for a while and then said: "Show me in Tianfeng Palace."
"Yes, I will prepare now."
Mo Xuetong had already returned home at this time and came to a small side room in her Qingwei Pavilion. There was also a stove burning in the side room. Although it was not big, it was enough to give people a sense of warmth when they came in from the outside.
There was a pale, almost transparent woman sleeping on the bed in the wing room. She opened her eyes and looked at Mo Xuetong excitedly. She reached out and pulled Mo Xuetong's clothes and said in disbelief: "Miss, Is it you? Is it really you?"
Because of her excitement, her hands trembled slightly and she failed to hold Mo Xuetong's clothes as she wished.
"He Xia is me, it's really me." Mo Xuetong smiled softly, sat down by the bed, took the medicine bowl from Mo Lan's hand, handed it to He Xia's mouth, and said with a smile: " Don't be impatient yet, drink the medicine and talk slowly."
It took a few days for He Xia to wake up, so she hurriedly entered the wing after coming back from outside.
He Xia took the medicine bowl and swallowed it without looking at it. She put down the bowl and burst into tears: "Miss, I didn't expect that I would be able to see you here. I didn't expect that I would be alive to see you..." She cried so hard that her face was pale and without a trace of blood, but she was suppressed and did not dare to speak out.
"It's okay, don't be afraid, nothing happened." Mo Xuetong reached out and patted her shoulder to comfort her. It seemed that she had been depressed for a long time. She seemed to be in fear all the time, even if she was emotionally excited. , and did not dare to speak out, only tears fell one by one.
"Sister He Xia, are you really okay? This is the capital, why did you faint in front of the lady's car?" Mo Yu blinked and asked, looking at the shabby beggar's clothes that he had changed into. With this look, it's really hard to tell whether she's a woman or a man.
"Is this the capital?" He Xia was so frightened that she grabbed Mo Yu's hand and asked urgently. Her eyes were full of fear and she was trembling. This look clearly showed that she was greatly frightened. Xue Dong seemed to be so crazy. of.
Mo Xuetong glared at Mo Yu and said softly: "This is my Qingwei Garden. When I was in Yuncheng, my mother took it down for me. At that time, my mother put a plaque for me. It was Sister He Xia. , you asked me to hang it up, and you will show me later whether it is hanging upright or not, it won’t be different from before.”
Mo Xuetong smiled softly, and her voice was sweet and charming, which was very comforting. When she talked about some trivial household matters, the surprise in He Xia's eyes receded a little.
"Miss, where is the madam? Has the madam also come to the capital? I want to see the madam." Holding Mo Xuetong's hand, He Xia looked around with wide eyes, and suddenly took a breath and said urgently.
Didn't He Xia know that his wife was dead long ago? Several people looked at each other in astonishment, and each saw the surprise in the other's eyes. Could it be that He Xia left when his wife had nothing to do.
How come I've never heard anyone talk about it before? (To be continued)
