Transmigrated into the book to become the villain prince, the son of the plane to destroy

Everyone in the hall fell silent for a moment, all cast their sympathetic eyes on He Yi, and secretly speculated how the emperor would punish him.

Xiao Jie sighed secretly in his heart, no matter what, this matter happened because of him, and he still saved He Yi's life.

Anyway, no matter whether I come forward to save He Yi or not, others will think that this matter is related to me. If I just sit idly by and refuse to save He Yi, who will dare to vote for my camp and support me in the future.

"Your Majesty, can you listen to the old minister?"

Just as Xiao Jie was about to speak, an angry voice came first from the hall, it was Shang Shu Zuo Pu shooting Su Hong.

Xiao Jie secretly sighed in his heart, it really was his own grandfather, he said he would support him with all his strength and he would do it, he stood up at the critical moment.

Although Su Hong's status was a bit awkward because of Xiao Jie, none of the ministers in the court knew that Su Hong was known for his uprightness, and he treated his son Su Jing as business as usual, let alone his son's son-in-law.

Xiao Ji remained expressionless, and said in a deep voice, "Su Qing's family, please tell me."

Su Hong bowed to Xiao Ji first, and then said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, if other people dare to ask the emperor to make King Qi the crown prince at such an inappropriate occasion at the first month banquet, the old officials will definitely think that he is a follower of power, just for the sake of It's all about currying favor with the King of Qi, but He Zhongcheng is an old minister who understands that he has always been loyal and upright, and he is definitely not someone who strives for fame and fortune. I will be instigated by others, and I hope Your Majesty will learn from it. But he did go against the imperial court tonight, so Your Majesty might as well punish him with a small punishment."

Sure enough, the old cadre's speech was level, and a few casual words not only picked up Xiao Jie cleanly, but also brought He Yi's crimes away with a light and flimsy faux pas.

Su Hong took the lead, and other officials also pleaded for He Yi one after another. Not only Su Hong's disciples, but also many other officials. After all, He Yi's character is obvious to all. Although he has a bad temper, he is really not a follower. .

But Xiao Ji suddenly laughed: "Your family, what's the reason? When did I say that He Aiqing was going to be punished? It's just that I saw him drink a few more glasses. I was afraid that he would get drunk, so I asked the guards to send him home to rest first. .”

Seeing so many people pleading for him, He Yi knew that if he persisted, it would only make it difficult for these people to step down, so he had no choice but to apologize, and the guards took him away from the hall and sent him home.

As soon as He Yi left, the banquet continued to play music and then dance, and everyone in the hall continued to exchange glasses and exchange glasses, as if nothing had happened.

It's just that Xiao Jie still keenly felt that because of the episode just now, everyone was somewhat unnatural.

He glanced at the calm father again, he never asked himself a word from the beginning to the end, Xiao Jie couldn't figure out what was going on in his heart...

……

As soon as the banquet was over, Xiao Jie drove back to the mansion immediately, and ordered Yao Ce to meet him in the study.

Yao Ce was a famous scholar in Yingchuan, who was called "Fengchu" at that time.

At the beginning, Xiao Jie sent Jiayi and the others to Yingchuan County to ask "Wolong" and "Fengchu" to come to Jiaozhou to help him. Unexpectedly, when his people arrived in Yingchuan, the two of them had already traveled together. I don't know where to go.Jiayi and the others couldn't find anyone and dared not go back to Jiaozhou. After discussing with them, they could only inquire about the whereabouts of the two of them. Their hard work paid off. The humble inn saw the two of them.

Jiayi directly stated their intention to come, "Fengchu" Yao Ce felt Xiao Jie's sincerity and readily agreed, while "Crouching Dragon" Tai Shizheng expressed that he would think about it all night, but he disappeared early the next morning and died helplessly. The scholar had no choice but to bring Yao Ce back to Xiao Jie, who had only arrived in the capital two days ago.

Xiao Jie didn't say anything, after all, it was in line with their characters in the book. Yao Ce was extremely utilitarian, and wanted to be famous all over the world, while Tai Shizheng was indifferent to fame and wealth, and yearned for wandering around the world even more. Life, in the original book, if Xiao Huang hadn't relied on the halo buff of the protagonist of "The World Comes to Heart", I am afraid that he might not be able to take him under his command.

Xiao Jie can only pray that Tai Shizheng does not travel to Liangzhou or the Western Regions, otherwise, once he is attracted by Xiao Huang's aura of the protagonist and joins him, his success will fall short.

It's just that in the past few days, due to the many things during the New Year, Xiao Jie is exhausted, and he still has time to have a good talk with this "phoenix chick".

Fortunately, Yao Ce didn't feel left out, either staying in his room to read a book these few days, or going to the street to drink tea and listen to music, he felt free and easy.

Not long after, Yao Ce appeared in Xiao Jie's study, and Xiao Jie directly activated the skill of "Seeing the fire through the eyes", and Yao Ce's attribute panel soon appeared in front of him.

Character: Yao Ce

Command: 85

Force: 62

Intelligence: 98

Politics: 89

Charisma: 75

Morality: medium

Favor: bosom friend

Xiao Jie was a little surprised, he didn't expect Yao Ce to regard him as a confidant.

But think about it, in order to recruit him, his people can spend more than half a year chasing him from the Central Plains to Bashu, isn't that sincere enough?Can't Yao Ce give birth to the emotion of dying for a confidant?

The only regret is that I touched Yao Ce, but failed to touch Tai Shizheng's heart yearning for freedom.

Xiao Jie told Yao Ce everything about tonight's banquet, and wanted to hear his opinion.

Yao Ce pondered for a while when he heard the words, then shook his head and said, "Your Highness, although the Emperor did not punish He Zhongcheng nor blame His Highness for what happened tonight, the Emperor may already have a grudge."

Xiao Jie frowned: "You mean that Father would really think that He Yi was instructed by me?"

Yao Ce still shook his head and said with a smile: "Since your highness and the emperor are father and son, the emperor must know what your highness is like, and know that your highness will not do such stupid things, but because of this, it also means that He Yi sincerely wants to support him." Your Highness is the crown prince, He Yi is definitely not the only courtier who has such thoughts in the court, although the emperor doesn't say anything, he is naturally very displeased."

"Your Highness naturally understands the character of the Emperor. He regards imperial power more than anything else. Now there are ministers in the court who love His Highness and want to support His Highness into the East Palace. Isn't this a threat to the imperial power?"

After hearing this, Xiao Jie broke out in a cold sweat secretly. No wonder he felt uneasy on the way back. It turned out that he also vaguely felt something was wrong. Now after Yao Ce's few words and a few words, he finally understood the mystery. .

He never thought that performing too well would be an original sin, and that he had inadvertently threatened the imperial power.

Although the father was not dissatisfied with himself for a while, but now because of He Yi's incident, a seed of suspicion has been planted between their father and son. If it is not eradicated as soon as possible, it will lead to disaster sooner or later.

"Sir, can you solve it?" Xiao Jie looked at Yao Ce. He felt that since Yao Ce could see the crux of the problem at a glance, he should have a countermeasure.

Yao Ce smiled lightly: "Your Highness should go to the palace to meet the emperor and queen in a few days. I'll go prepare a gift for His Highness, maybe it will have a miraculous effect."

Xiao Jie secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he was also curious about what gift Yao Ce would prepare for him.
