"What happened last night?"
Emperor Xuanwu sat on his head and looked at Rong Yi who was kneeling down, his always peaceful face was full of anger.
At the feet of the emperor, his favorite minister was attacked. Is this hitting him in the face
"How is your wife?"
"Just sober!"
Rong Yi lowered his head, but Emperor Xuanwu could still hear his unwillingness from his words.
"Don't worry, I have asked Jing Zhaoyin's people to investigate. I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter. You and your wife will not be wronged."
"Xie Emperor."
Rong Yi twitched the corner of his mouth and responded faintly.
I am afraid that the results of this investigation will disappoint him.
After leaving the hall, Rong Yi walked to the gate of the palace, only to see Xiao Ce who was about to enter the palace. Rong Yi walked straight towards Xiao Ce without squinting his eyes.
At the moment when the two crossed, I heard Xiao Ce say, "In order to achieve his own goals, Master Rong can use everything. I admire him."
Rong Yi paused, but did not respond to Xiao Ce, instead he got into the carriage and left.
Xiao Ce frowned as he looked at the leaving car shadow, but didn't dare to delay any more, and hurriedly went to Emperor Xuanwu's Hall of Nourishing the Heart.
"The minister has seen the emperor."
"Get up!"
Seeing Xiao Ce, Emperor Xuanwu's complexion improved a lot, "You won't see you walking around in the palace when you come back this time, your aunt misses you very much!"
"The grace of Emperor Xie and Niang Niang, but the minister is a foreign minister after all, it is inconvenient to walk in the palace, so..."
Hearing Xiao Ce's words, Emperor Xuanwu nodded. The reason why he allowed Xiao Ce to sit in such a high position at this age was that he admired his knowledge of advances and retreats, just like his father.
"You are not an outsider. You are my nephew by all accounts. It's okay to come and walk a lot. What about your father? I may not see him in the palace for a long time."
Hearing this, Xiao Ce said quickly, "My father reads books and tastes tea at home every day. He said he has been tired for half his life, and now he wants to rest."
"He has a good fate, and he has handed over the burden to you early."
Emperor Xuanwu sighed, "Yes, I am old too, and it is time to find someone to help me share the burden."
Hearing the words of Emperor Xuanwu, Xiao Ce buried his head lower, knowing that this is definitely not a good time for him to speak.
"Have you seen the third child when you came back?"
Hearing this, Xiao Ce replied without any hesitation, "I've seen it before the emperor."
He didn't intend to conceal these things, because the relationship between him and Ji Fengxi was good. If he said that he hadn't seen it before, it would really be suspicious.
"The third child has the same temperament as his mother, concubine, and your aunt. It is the most elegant thing, with a soft heart..."
Hearing Emperor Xuanwu’s sigh, Xiao Ce did not speak. Suddenly, Emperor Xuanwu changed his conversation, “Have you heard about Rong Yi’s assassination last night?”
"Yep!"
It would be strange if he said that he didn't know about such a big thing.
"I don't know who is so courageous, who wants to be against Rong Yi over and over again. Have they still put me in their eyes?"
Xiao Ce bowed lower when he heard the words, a solemn flash of his eyebrows.
Is the emperor suspicious of him
That's right, Jin Yiwei is the only one who dares to challenge Dongchang.
Emperor Xuanwu stared at Xiao Ce closely, but he didn't see any strangeness on his face. He loosened his eyebrows and said, "I have ordered Jing Zhaoyin's people to investigate this matter, and you go too. Check it out, I want to see who is so courageous who dares to do it at the feet of the emperor."
"Yes!"
Xiao Ce knew that the crisis had passed, he straightened up, and said, "Please rest assured, the emperor, the minister must investigate the matter and find out."
"I am naturally relieved when you do things. You can go see your aunt later, or she will complain to me that you didn't let you see her again at night."
"Yes, thank the emperor for grace!"
"By the way, I just remembered when talking about your aunt. A few days ago, your aunt mentioned your marriage to me. In the past few years, you have been running around for me, and your marriage has been delayed. Your aunt Let me point out a marriage for you. You can tell me first, do you have a girl you like?"
Xiao Ce was shocked when he heard this, the girl you like
The girl he likes has already been pointed out to others.
There was a bitterness in Xiao Ce's heart, "If you go back to the emperor, Weichen doesn't have a girl he likes."
"Since there is no such thing, then I will personally choose a marriage for you."
Emperor Xuanwu said with great interest, maybe it was because of his age, he also likes to marry people very much now. Especially in the last marriage between Rong Yi and Gu Qingluo, seeing Rong Yi taking care of Gu Qingluo, he felt that his marriage was the right one.
emperor! "Xiao Ce knelt down," begging the emperor to take his fate back, the Weichen has no plans to get married yet, and the Weichen still wants to make contributions and make plans again, so as not to delay others. "
His heart is full of that person, how can he marry another woman
"You are now the commanding history of Jin Yiwei at a young age. Who would dare to say that you are also making contributions? Okay, I know you are sincere, but you are not young anymore. If you drag on, your aunt will not quarrel with me. No. Okay, that's the matter. I'll take a good look for you, so go back and look for your aunt first!"
Emperor Xuanwu made a decision with a single word. Xiao Ce couldn't say anything, so he had to retreat and went to the concubine Xiao's palace.
"aunt."
"Cer, you finally came."
Even though Concubine Xiao Gui is not young, she still looks like a girl in her gestures, which is why she can still endure in the palace for a long time.
Concubine Xiao made people lead Xiao Ce to sit down before speaking, "You have been back for so long, but you never come to see your aunt in the palace once, do you still think of me as your aunt?"
"Auntie forgive me. Ce'er is a foreign minister, so it's not easy to go in and out of the palace all the time."
:"I see!"
Concubine Xiao Gui sighed. This is the sorrow of the royal woman. There are many rules and inconveniences for her relatives to meet.
"What did the emperor say to you today?"
Concubine Xiao asked.
Xiao Ce frowned when he heard this, feeling that his aunt was a little wrong to ask this, but he still said, "Let me thoroughly investigate the incident of the thousands of households that were attacked last night."
"Huh, it's for Rong Yi again!"
Concubine Xiao Gui snorted coldly, with a look of dissatisfaction, "It is better to treat an eunuch than to his own son. I am too busy to point to an eunuch to marry him and don't even remember to point to his son and nephew.
"Auntie, be careful!"
Xiao Ce quickly reminded him.
Although those who can stay in the sleeping hall are the aunt's confidantes, after all, the walls have ears, especially this deep palace.
When reminded by Xiao Ce, Concubine Xiao Gui took a deep breath and said, "Let Ce'er laugh, and my aunt has lost his temper. Not to mention that eunuch, this time my aunt must make a decision about your lifelong event."
"Auntie..."
Xiao Ce wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Concubine Xiao Xiao, "Okay, don't make excuses, this is all set. You stay in the palace today, I have sent someone to call Feng Xi Yes, I haven’t seen him for a few days, just getting together."
Xiao Ce had no choice but to respond.
