Jie Jiming's face was startled. He didn't expect that Kong Changhui would have any official duties when he returned to Dali Temple at this moment. Didn't Xiao Mubai enter the palace just after Xiao Mubai had been settled
Moreover, judging from his tone, I am afraid he will stay at Dali Temple today.
Jie Ji Mingliang thought about it for a while. Kong Changhui had already resigned and turned around to get on the carriage. Before he could ask any questions, he could only see the shadow of the carriage gradually disappearing into the night...
When Kong Changhui returned to Dali Temple, Xiao Yanjun had already returned to the palace. He took Nie Hongyang into the house and asked him, "What's going on?"
Nie Hongyang briefly explained what he had learned outside the palace gate. The young Marquis had been acquitted, and a notice should be announced tomorrow to inform the world.
At this time, the emperor had not made any decision to deal with His Highness King Mo. As for other words, he voluntarily suppressed them due to his strong desire to survive.
Xiao Yanjun happened to hear some fragments of words from a distance and asked him: "What do they mean by 'he Niba' they keep shouting about?"
The veins on Nie Hongyang's forehead inevitably popped up again. He was thinking in his mind whether he should tell a lie and hide it, or report the truth and get beaten and scolded. There was a "Dudu" knock on the door and a message from Simon. : "Your Majesty, your Majesty sent a message from the palace."
Nie Hongyang's heart suddenly relaxed, and he looked at Si Nan who came in, with hot eyes as if he had seen the savior.
Xiao Yanjun took the letter from him with a gloomy expression. After reading it, his gloomy expression actually softened, and the corners of his mouth curled upward.
Si Nan and Nie Hongyang looked at each other and knew that Concubine Li must have conveyed some good news, so that Xiao Yanjun could not conceal his joy at this moment.
Nie Hongyang happened to take the opportunity and said to Xiao Yanjun: "It seems that Concubine Li has already come up with a countermeasure. It doesn't matter if the prince doesn't enter the palace tonight."
Si Nan had already brought the brazier and asked him to throw the letter in. Xiao Yanjun snorted coldly: "Second brother has exhausted his plans and wants to take full responsibility for himself. Little does he know that the mother and concubine's people have already taken action. Xia Chu is dead, and he All this is in vain.”
Si Nan looked stunned, still a little unbelievable, and murmured to himself: "The young Marquis is dead?"
Xiao Yanjun glanced at Si Nan. He was in a very good mood at the moment. It was rare that he did not reprimand him. He just said happily: "The people under Mother and Concubine have never made mistakes in their affairs. Since they say they are dead, they must be dead."
Si Nan and Nie Hongyang quickly saluted and congratulated: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, for eliminating future troubles."
Xiao Yanjun glanced at the two of them coldly: "Can you two be more angry? My mother and concubine have to take care of everything. I have lost all my face by you."
Nie Hongyang was scolded by him and nodded repeatedly. Si Nan didn't want to ruin the scenery at this time, but for the sake of his future promotion, he gritted his teeth and reminded him: "Your Majesty, will the death of the young Marquis happen? What impact will it have on you?"
Originally, Xia Chu was accused of burning corpses and unfortunately died in exile. Naturally, this was the wish of the people.
But now that he is innocent, Kong Changhui will definitely send people overnight to pick him up quickly. When the news of Xia Chu's death comes back, he is afraid that the rumors will be detrimental to Xiao Yanjun.
Xiao Yanjun was not angry but nodded approvingly at him, as if to praise him for having some brains to think of this.
"It doesn't matter. When the killers sent by the mother-in-law come back along the way, they will naturally silence the people who went to welcome the young marquis back home. There is no problem in dragging out this news for ten days and a half. Even if he finds out in the future, I will already know it. A big wedding, once the New Year is over, this event will be considered a thing of the past. Besides, given you such a long time, can't you still calm the people's emotions? "
Nie Hongyang and Si Nan both clasped their fists and responded: "Yes, I will definitely take good care of myself."
When Si Nan heard what Xiao Yanjun said, he felt that he had hope for promotion again, and then he flattered him: "Your Majesty is thoughtful and thoughtful, and my subordinates admire him very much."
Nie Hongyang rolled his eyes at Si Nan in disgust, and when he saw Xiao Yanjun smiling, he immediately said, "Your Majesty is thoughtful and thoughtful, and my subordinates admire him very much."
But Xiao Yanjun seemed dissatisfied with this flattery and gave Nie Hongyang a cold look.
Si Nan glanced at Nie Hongyang proudly and continued to speak to Xiao Yanjun: "Your Majesty, the fifth prince has returned to Chenglu Courtyard. Do you want to go there?"
Xiao Yanjun nodded: "Pick some poems and songs and bring them over. I want to have a good talk with the fifth prince at night."
Si Nan walked in front and opened the door for Xiao Yanjun first. After seeing him step out, he raised his chin to Nie Hongyang and said, "Why don't you hurry up and pick some poems and songs for the prince?"
Nie Hongyang walked to the door reluctantly and rolled his eyes at him: "Why are you so proud? It's only because your wife can speak well in front of Concubine Li that she overwhelms me."
Si Nan's face turned livid after being teased by him. Just when he was about to yell at his back, Xiao Yanjun scolded him displeasedly from the front: "Why are you dawdling?"
"Here we come." Si Nan had no choice but to respond, and when he turned around, there was Nie Hongyang there.
At the same time, You Rui walked quickly to Yongning Hall. When Xin Ya saw her, he scolded her angrily: "What are you doing here?"
You Rui knew that he was remembering that the last time she told Xiao Zi the news of Mu Xia Chu's exile, which caused His Highness to go crazy and hold a grudge against her, but now she came with good news, so she told Xin Yafu With a salute: "I have good news to tell His Highness, please let me in quickly."
How could Xin Ya believe it? Xiao Zimu had finally been deceived by him for a few days, and now he really couldn't stand the slightest stimulation. He took out his sword from its scabbard and placed it on her neck. His face was angry and his tone was cold: "Don't force me. Make a move on you."
Seeing his attitude, You Rui really didn't intend to give in. She bit her lip and shouted quickly into the study: "Your Highness, I have news about the young Marquis."
Xin Ya looked startled. He didn't expect that she would dare to shout so loudly in front of the study, so he quickly stepped forward to cover her mouth.
But it was already too late. As soon as he finished saying the words "Little Marquis", the study door was opened with a loud bang. Xiao Zimu saw Xin Ya's actions and quickly scolded him: "Stop."
Xin Ya held a sword and put it on her neck, while the other hand was still covering her mouth. He had no choice but to sheath the sword with a look on his face, but his eyes were fixed on You Rui.
You Rui glanced at him and took two steps forward. Xin Ya then stopped him.
Xiao Zimu looked coldly and scolded Xin Ya: "What are you doing? Get back."
Xin Ya was still standing there with his neck bent and refused to retreat. You Rui stamped her foot and said directly to Xiao Zimu who walked out of the study: "The young marquis has been pardoned by the emperor."
