Although the Crown Prince fined Rong Hao three months' salary, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the East Palace had already intervened in the marriage.It stands to reason that the East Palace has already temporarily regented, so it is not considered overstepping.It's just that the prince's meaning seems to be different from that of the current emperor, which is a bit tricky.

The officials in the court are also divided into factions. Most of them are veterans of the Qingde Dynasty. They are high-ranking and powerful, and they are used to catering to the Holy Will. They also have a foundation. If they want to make peace, they will naturally make peace.

As for the main battle, it is much more complicated. Some are young officials who have been admitted from poor families, and there are also descendants of fallen princes who are just waiting to fight and make contributions.Some have read the books of sages and sages, learned the integrity of the literati, claim to be clean, and refuse to bow to the barbarians easily.There are also border generals who know the ambitions of the Xirong people and are unwilling to condone traitors...

Among them, some of them saw Donggong's tendency, and wanted to speculate and fish in troubled waters, and came here to exploit.

Rong Hao and Ao Ji, now seeing no one every day, shuttling around the palaces of the princes in various places in central Beijing, socializing and lobbying, bringing back a lot of news, but the crown prince is as immobile as a mountain, only studying in Sihong Hall.

Ao Ji came back early that night, and his face was not very good.

"I've done all the inquiries here. The generals in the west and south are in harmony. I have some opinions on the northern border, and they are limited. After all, it is the place of the Yanbei Palace."

Xiao Jingyan's expression was light: "The king of Yanbei is already old, so it's normal for him to be more calm."

"There is no good news from Rong Hao." Ao Ji fell down on the couch and sneered: "This group of civil servants are screaming loudly, and they only say it is the main battle, and they say it is Qingliu, a joint memorial. If you can’t get it all together, you can just deceive those young scholars.”

All the officials in the court, except for the thick-skinned and oily old minister like Prime Minister Yong, whoever dares to say that they are the Lord's peace, will be scolded to death by the Qingliu scholars.Every one of them was impassioned when they wrote poems, wishing they could kill the thieves immediately, but in fact they were more honest than anyone else when they met the emperor.Otherwise, at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, when King Xi Rongnan proposed to marry him, all the officials would not have been silent.

This group of people is more difficult to deal with than those old ministers who openly advocate peace, because their public position seems to be unassailable. When you say the main battle, he shouts louder than you, almost pretending to be real.

Only Rong Hao, who bears the title of accompanying student in the Eastern Palace, has a noble status and slick methods, goes to the mansion to socialize one by one, drinks tea, chats and plays Tai Chi, can he grind out a little truth.

Rong Hao didn't come back until dark.He was also so angry that he took off his big clothes and crown as soon as he entered the door, sat down on the couch, drank a cup of tea, and then sighed: "These mediocre officials are really not easy to get along with. Thanks to the main battle outside It’s so hot to turn against Yingtian, in fact, the surname of the whole dynasty is 'he'."

"They also have wives and children, so it's common for them not to take risks." Xiao Jingyan remained calm.

Yan Junyu was rubbing ink for him beside him, and was eavesdropping, Rong Hao wanted to provoke him, and said with a smile: "Xiaoyan is a lot bolder, after hearing this news, he is not afraid anymore."

"I'm not afraid." He muttered softly, "This is not a critical moment."

When Rong Hao heard this, he was taken aback for a moment, and asked with a smile: "How do you know it's not a critical moment?"

"Do you really want to hear it?"

"I really want to listen."

"Then you call me brother."

Everyone laughed, Yu Yanran laughed so much that he almost fell off the bed, Rong Hao didn't get annoyed, and clapped his hands: "Xiao Yan is really promising. I'm still a kid, I want to be an older brother."

"Then what should I ask?" Xiao Jingyan asked amidst the laughter of the crowd.

He was sitting and Yan Junyu was standing, obviously looking down at him from above, but Yan Junyu blushed when he saw him, and said in a low voice, "Then I'll tell you."

"Hey, you're really promising!" Rong Hao kicked Ao Ji: "Look, you've brought up a good son."

"Master Rong probably doesn't even want next year's salary." Yun Lan warned.

Only then did Rong Hao feel sorry, bent his eyes and smiled, and changed the subject: "Then I'll borrow your Highness's light and listen to Xiao Yan's reasons, why isn't it a critical moment now?"

"When you discuss important news, you are all locked in the study, and Yu Yanran and I are not allowed to listen. So it is not a big deal to say it in front of Yu Yanran and me."

As soon as he said this, not to mention Rong Hao, even Yun Lan took a look at him.Yan Junyu is always a bit "stupid" at ordinary times. In fact, compared to Rong Hao who is so smart and exposed, he is more likely to startle people, because he often listens to many words quietly in his heart, and he doesn't know how many times he has pondered them.

Yan Junyu didn't care about their reaction, he just secretly looked at Xiao Jingyan, he was strong in the first place, Xiao Jingyan and the others didn't bring him to discuss matters, so he could only sulk secretly, determined to squeeze in, and be a qualified prince to accompany him.

But Xiao Jingyan's reaction was really discouraging.

"I heard that tonight's supper is good."

Yun Lan felt sorry, and laughed: "Yes, there is also roasted river knives, porridge is the best."

Yu Yanran's eyes lit up immediately: "This thing is best served with wine, Xiaoyan won't stay here for supper."

When the supper was delivered, they went in to discuss matters, leaving only Yan Junyu and Yu Yanran outside, Yu Yanran was happy, and advised Junyu: "You come to eat too, wait until you get fatter, I will take you Going to the frontier, riding a big horse, wearing heavy armor, and fighting Xirong wolves, it's so much fun, why worry about those intrigues."

Yan Junyu ignored him, just lowered his head to drink the porridge, and when Yun Lan left, he suddenly stood up and glanced around.

As soon as Yu Yanran saw him like this, she guessed it. He was also fearless, not only did not stop him, but also encouraged him: "What are you going to do, go quickly, I will watch over you."
