Chu Xuan has been paying less and less attention to He Pingchuan recently, which makes He Pingchuan feel very unhappy.

But now in front of the civil and military officials of the court, he could not refuse directly, so he had to present the note to Chu Xuan with a dark face.

Chu Xuan yawned and took it over to take a look. He suddenly lost his drowsiness and exclaimed: "What, Princess Jingnan is the reincarnation of Emperor Xihe, who said this?"

The quiet hall exploded with a bang.

The courtiers looked at each other, wanting to ask but not daring to ask. They whispered among themselves:

"What did His Majesty say?"

"Who is the reincarnation of Princess Jingnan?"

"Emperor Xihe, His Majesty said she is the reincarnation of Emperor Xihe."

"Absurd, where did this rumor come from? It's just nonsense!"

"Who is so bold as to spread rumors about Emperor Gaozu?"

"Silence, silence..." Chu Xuan slapped the dragon chair and shouted, "Shut up, uncle, where did this news come from? How did Princess Jingnan become my ancestor?"

"Your Majesty, please don't lie!" He Pingchuan said, "These are all spread by people outside. As a king, how can you spread lies?"

"But……"

"There is no but, this is impossible!" He Pingchuan interrupted him sharply, the majesty of a powerful official clearly revealed.

After all, Chu Xuan was still afraid of him, so he shrank his neck and didn't dare to say anything again.

He Pingchuan said solemnly: "Your Majesty, please retreat from the court first. I will wait until I find out more about this matter before reporting to Your Majesty."

Then he turned around and ordered the civil and military officials: "No one is allowed to believe or spread rumors before the matter has been decided. Otherwise, they will be punished for the crime of misleading the public with evil words."

The courtiers also changed their expressions under his pressure, and they all bowed in response.

At this time, He Yunjie had no intention of maintaining order in the court with his father. When he heard the eunuch shouting to retreat, he put away the wat board and walked out of the hall first.

Just as he was about to leave the palace to inquire about the situation in person, the young eunuch from Ci'an Palace hurried over: "Xiao Ge Lao, the Queen Mother would like to ask you and Ge Lao to come over."

He Yunjie didn't need to think about it to know why the Empress Dowager summoned him, so he had to give instructions to his confidants who had been waiting outside the palace, and went to Ci'an Palace with his father.

As soon as the father and son arrived, Chu Xuan also followed. As soon as he entered the door, he shouted to the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother! Weird thing! Weird thing! Some people actually say that Princess Jingnan is the reincarnation of Emperor Gaozu!"

The Queen Mother was having a headache over this matter. When she heard him shouting, her headache almost exploded: "Shut up, stop talking nonsense. You are the emperor, how can you believe anything you say?"

Chu Xuan had just been scolded by his uncle, and now he was scolded by his mother. He was very aggrieved: "I don't believe it. I was shocked. I think this thing is weird."

"As long as you know it's weird, stop talking now and listen to what your uncle and Yun Jie have to say." The Queen Mother said helplessly, rubbing her temples.

Chu Xuan was most disgusted that his mother valued his uncle and cousin more than him, but he did not dare to disobey the Queen Mother, so he had to shut up and sit quietly aside.

The Queen Mother asked the father and son to sit down and asked He Pingchuan: "In my brother's opinion, should we first control Princess Jingnan?"

Just as Chu Xuan closed his mouth, he couldn't help but interject: "What are you trying to control her for? She didn't make this rumor."

The Queen Mother gave him a sullen look.

Chu Xuan also tried his best to defend Chu Zhao: "That's right. How can anyone create their own Yao?"

"Get out!" The Queen Mother finally couldn't stand him anymore and pointed to the door, "Go back to your Qianyuan Palace. You are not allowed to ask any more questions about this matter."

"Why?" Chu Xuan's face dropped, "I am the emperor, why am I not allowed to intervene in such a big matter?"

"Aijia wants you out!" The Queen Mother grabbed the tea cup and threw it at him.

Chu Xuan hurriedly dodged, and the tea cup fell to the ground and shattered.

Seeing that the Queen Mother's anger was getting stronger and stronger, he did not dare to talk back anymore, so he had to get up and leave angrily.

"Auntie, calm down."

He Yunjie's cold voice came from behind, and Chu Xuan felt even more angry after hearing it.

Obviously he was the queen's only son, but the queen only saw her nephew and didn't take him seriously at all.

In this case, why not just give him the throne and save yourself from having to get out of bed before dawn every day to go to court.

The more Chu Xuan thought about it, the angrier he became. He left Ci'an Palace and went straight to Chu Zhao's Chaoyun Palace.

In Chaoyun Palace, Chu Zhao had just had breakfast and was sitting in front of the window holding Princess Huai'an in his arms and teaching her how to write.

The early morning sunlight shines in from the window, and the two figures, one large and one small, are enveloped in a golden halo, looking warm and beautiful.

Chu Xuan didn't let anyone know. As soon as he walked in, he saw this peaceful scene. The anger he had just suffered in Ci'an Palace immediately disappeared. He wished he could transform into Princess Huai'an and feel the beauty of Princess Jingnan. embrace.

Chu Zhao was slightly surprised by his arrival. He put down his pen and greeted him with Princess Huai'an. He asked with a smile: "Why is your majesty so interested in coming to my place?"

"Don't mention it, I'm almost mad to death." Chu Xuan said angrily, "I, the emperor, are really useless. No one takes me seriously."

"Why did Your Majesty say this?" Chu Zhao said, "Hasn't Your Majesty done a good job recently?"

Chu Xuan sighed, stopped talking, waved to Princess Huai'an and said, "Huai'an, please go outside and play for a while while father and princess say a few words."

"Okay, Father." Princess Huai'an nodded obediently and resigned.

Chu Xuan looked at her and said with emotion: "The princess really knows how to teach children, Huai'an is completely different now and before."

Chu Zhao smiled and said: "Children are easy to teach. As long as you have enough patience, there is no child who cannot be taught well."

Chu Xuan couldn't help feeling: "It would be great if my mother was as gentle as the princess to me."

Chu Zhao raised his eyebrows slightly: "It seems that Your Majesty has learned a lesson from the Queen Mother?"

"That's right!" Chu Xuan said depressedly, "I was just kicked out of Ci'an Palace by my mother."

"Why?" Chu Zhao asked, "Your Majesty and the Queen Mother stumbled over each other?"

"Well, speaking of it, it's for the sake of the princess." Chu Xuan said, not hiding anything at the moment and telling Chu Zhao exactly what happened just now.

While he was talking, he suddenly stopped, looked at Chu Zhao with burning eyes and asked: "Princess Jingnan, you are not really the reincarnation of the great ancestor, are you?"

Chu Zhao laughed and asked instead, "Your Majesty, do you think I am?"

Chu Xuan shook his head: "I don't know."

Chu Zhao asked again: "Does Your Majesty hope that I am, or am I not?"

This time, Chu Xuan did not answer immediately, and frowned and fell into deep thought.

On the one hand, he has a crush on Princess Jingnan. If Princess Jingnan is the reincarnation of his ancestor, then he can no longer have any undue thoughts about her.

On the other hand, Princess Jingnan is really capable. If she is really the ancestor of his family, she will have the most powerful backer in the world.

With the support of such a powerful ancestor, not to mention the He family father and son, not even the queen mother can do anything to him.

That feeling makes me so happy just thinking about it.

Therefore, he is now very entangled, wavering between the love between man and woman and the love between ancestors and grandchildren. He is undecided and his intestines are knotted with worry.

Seeing him like that, how could Chu Zhao not know what he was thinking? He resisted the urge to slap him away and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, please stop worrying. No matter whether I am the reincarnation of Emperor Xihe or not, the prince and I will remain firm." I will stand unswervingly on His Majesty's side, help His Majesty solve problems, and stabilize the country."

"Really?" Chu Xuan was immediately overjoyed and grabbed her hand excitedly and said, "Princess Jingnan, the only one I have not missed in all these years is you. You are really my lucky star."

Chu Zhao: "..."

What does this grandson look like?

Is he sure he really didn't make a mistake?

"Since your Majesty trusts me and the prince so much, I will explain my plan to your Majesty."

Chu Zhao forcibly pulled out his hand, asked him to sit down in front of the case, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty has also seen that the power and ambition of the He family and his son have expanded unprecedentedly. If not eradicated in time, it will definitely threaten your Majesty's throne. Therefore, I Prince He and Eunuch Feng secretly collected all kinds of crimes committed by the He family and his son, and planned to unite some officials to get a copy of them at the morning meeting.

But since the prince came to Beijing, he has been constantly monitored by the He family and his son. He cannot enter the palace to meet the saint, nor can he go to court to discuss matters. This rumor comes at the right time. Tomorrow morning, your majesty will use this reason to announce that the prince and I will go to Chengtian. We can also take the opportunity to impeach the He family and his son to His Majesty. What does Your Majesty think? "

"Great, I think this plan is feasible."

Chu Xuan's eyes shone with excitement, and he grabbed Chu Zhao's hand again after a few cases.

"Princess Jingnan, I really didn't expect that you would secretly plan such a thorough plan for me. I am really, really grateful to you."

Chu Zhao: "..."

Does this grandson have some disease that makes him unable to speak without holding hands?

I really want to give him a few injections.

"Your Majesty is the Emperor, and we are your ministers. It is our duty to plan for you." Chu Zhao said, "Since Your Majesty thinks this plan is feasible, then without further delay, we will formally declare war on the He family and his son tomorrow morning. "

"Okay, okay." Chu Xuan nodded repeatedly, his voice trembling slightly with excitement, "Declare war, declare war, I have wanted to kill them for a long time!"
