The eldest princess is so annoying!
Chapter 37
Inside the study.
Qie Ge raised her head without showing any emotion on her face. She stopped the movements of her hands, stared at the hidden guard kneeling in front of her, and asked, "Is this really true?"
The dark guard said: "Return to the master, it is absolutely true!"
Qi Ge lowered his eyes and continued to write. If he said it, Qi Ge would not be surprised. He should be beheaded if he disrespects the royal family. "Can you be beheaded after a few days?"
"Not yet determined."
"Go back."
"Yes!"
Qingqian stood beside Qiege, grinding.
After writing down a few words, the song seemed to remind her of something. Since she reminded Mu Xu that day, she hadn't seen Mu Xu for a while, "What has Mu Xu been doing these days?"
"My son-in-law is in Nuanxiang Xiaozhu as usual."
"Did you do anything strange?"
Such as suicide.
It's true that Mu Xu is soft-hearted, but rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry. This is not afraid of ten thousand, just in case.
Qingqian understands the meaning of the song, "Peach Blossom and Green Bamboo have followed the son-in-law all the time since they were punished."
And the song nodded, it's always good to be looked at by others. Although Taohua Cuizhu and the others are slaves and cannot disobey their master's orders, at least they will not let Mu Xu do some stupid things.
"Prepare the sedan chair and enter the palace."
Qingqian put down the ink stick, "Yes, Your Highness!"
Mu Xu, who is still in Nuanxiang Xiaozhu, is full of sadness. These days, Peach Blossom and Green Bamboo have changed their previous style. No matter what she does, the two of them are inseparable. Like suicide.
It would be okay if they just followed her, but the two of them still looked at her with pitiful eyes. As long as she picked up the pen, the eyes would be even worse. Drop a word, then put it down again.
Mu Xu let out a long sigh. She couldn't succeed after repeated attempts. What should she do to stop and sing?
Go to the palace to find the emperor?
As soon as this idea came up, Mu Xu vetoed it. Not to mention that she had beaten the emperor by mistake before, but she hadn't. She is just an outsider, how can she help her?
Green Bamboo and Peach Blossom stood aside, they pretended not to hear the son-in-law's sighs.
The two know that the son-in-law is kind-hearted, so they don't need to do anything, they just need to pretend to be pitiful. Although they know this is not kind, but as long as the son-in-law can give up the idea of Princess Xiu, they can do whatever they want .
Mu Xu couldn't sit still anymore, she got up and walked out the door.
Taohua and Cuizhu hurriedly followed after seeing each other, they couldn't let the son-in-law have a chance to be alone.
The two followed Mu Xu out of the eldest princess's mansion, and Mu Xu walked aimlessly all the way, constantly thinking about the way to rest and sing.
As she was walking, she came to Dongshi unknowingly, and heard the cries of hawkers from time to time. Mu Xu raised her eyes and looked around, her eyes fell on an old man who was laying lanterns.
There are about ten lanterns placed beside the old man, and he is seen holding the skeleton of the lantern in one hand and brushing the paste with the other.
Mu Xu approached, "Old man, is the painting on the lamp a willow catkin?"
Following Mu Xu's gaze, the old man set his eyes on the small pasted lantern at his feet, and said with a smile, "Girl, this painting is exactly Liu Xu."
Because the name of the current eldest princess Qiege is Yangliu, and willows are also called Yangliu, if someone draws willows, it is disrespectful to the royal family. In order to avoid the taboo, he can only draw catkins.
Mu Xu looked at the willow catkins flying all over the sky in the painting, with a wry smile on her lips. It would be great if she could fly away from this place of right and wrong like the one in this painting.
Seeing this situation, Tao Hua and Cui Zhu thought that Mu Xu was so sad because of the sudden song, Liu Xu and Liu Xu, didn't there be words for His Royal Highness and Prince Consort in it, but they didn't know that Mu Xu was just melancholy at his own encounter.
The old man saw the sadness in Mu Xu's eyes. Although Mu Xu was dressed gorgeously, she didn't have the arrogance of an official lady on her body. On the contrary, she made people very comfortable. He should not be a bad person. After weighing it, the old man spoke Asked: "What's wrong with the girl?"
Mu Xu calmed down, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, "Thank you for your concern, old man, it's just a trivial matter."
The old man nodded, and understood that Mu Xu probably didn't want to mention that sad thing.
Mu Xu knelt down and picked up the little lantern with catkins on it, "Old man, how much is this lantern?"
"Three pennies."
Mu Xu took out three Wen coins and was about to hand them to the old man when he saw the old man's hands full of calluses and scratches, feeling pity in his heart.
Mu Xu took out all the money on her body and handed it to the old man. Anyway, she wanted to die, and she might get what she wanted one day. It is useless to keep the money, if it is all given to those who need it.
Looking at the money in his hand, the old man thought that his voice was too low for Mu Xu to hear clearly. Although he needs to sell lanterns to make ends meet, he would not charge more money from customers against his conscience.
The old man raised his voice a little, "Girl, you gave too much money, this lantern only costs three Wen."
"Old man, you can take the money."
The old man understood now. It's not that Mu Xu didn't hear clearly, but he deliberately gave him so much money, which he couldn't accept.
"My old man appreciates the girl's kindness. Although the old man's body is not as strong as before, his hands are still flexible and he can do it. I can't take this money. You should take it back!"
Mu Xu smiled and said, "The old man misunderstood. The silver is not given to the old man for nothing, but used to buy all the lanterns of the old man."
"This..." The old man looked at the money in his hand. I am afraid that the money would have to buy a hundred or so lanterns. The daughter of the mansion? Why do you need so many lanterns?"
Mu Xu avoided answering, "After the old man is done, he just needs to send the lantern to Yunqi Private School."
It turned out that it was given to the students, and this girl is really kind-hearted.
But in the blink of an eye, when the old man came back to his senses, Mu Xu's master and servant had all gone away.
The old man lowered his eyes. He looked at the money in his hand. If his granddaughter hadn't passed away due to the flood, she would be as old as this girl by now.
Thinking of the sadness in Mu Xu's eyes, the old man was worried, he turned around and chased the three of them with old steps, and shouted while chasing: "Girl, girl, please stay!"
"Girl, please stay!"
Taohua turned her head and saw that the old man was chasing after her, and Mu Xu looked very worried, obviously she couldn't hear the old man calling her, so Taohua reminded: "My son-in-law, the old man is chasing up."
Mu Xu stopped when she heard the sound, she turned around and walked quickly to the old man's house, with puzzled eyes, could it be that the rhetoric just now was seen through?
"Old man?"
The old man took several breaths before blurting out what he wanted to say, "Girl, no matter what happens, if you take a step back, the sea and the sky will be brighter."
Taohua and Cuizhu nodded at the same time, the old man is right, as long as the son-in-law is willing to subdue His Highness and say something nice, although it is difficult to guarantee whether His Highness will spare the son-in-law because of this, but he will definitely be punished leniently.
Mu Xu's eyes were slightly surprised. Is her mind so obvious?
Even the people who didn't want to do it with her could guess a thing or two, Mu Xu nodded and said with a smile: "Thank you for your concern."
Taking a step back is the sea and the sky?
If she retreats, and at the same time convinces her to be soft, will Jiang Huaisheng really survive?
Heh, not necessarily, Jiang Huaisheng is dead now when retreating or advancing, so why does she bow her head to Qige?
Yang Hao was sitting on the dragon chair, his eyes were fixed on the memorial on the table, his head was propped up in one hand, and the writing brush was in the other. His expression was tired. Just as the pen was about to fall, Xiao Lezi walked in and whispered in his ear. He whispered: "Your Majesty, let Your Highness ask to see you."
"What?" Yang Hao was terrified, all the exhaustion disappeared, and he almost couldn't hold his pen steadily. Could it be that Huang Jie knew that he had summoned Prime Minister Zuo, right?
Yang Hao slammed the writing brush in his hand firmly at Xiao Lezi. He lowered his voice, gritted his teeth and scolded: "You bastard! Didn't you order someone to seal your mouth? How could Huang Jie come?!"
Xiao Lezi's grievance, he did follow His Majesty's order and sealed everyone's mouths, but how did he know how His Highness Qige knew about it? In order to avoid being offended, Xiao Lezi hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Perhaps His Highness is not here for Miss An Ran's affairs?"
Yang Hao looked anxious, "Then what's wrong with the emperor?"
"This... this... this...", Xiao Lezi wiped off his cold sweat, even if he was killed, he would not know, he is not the roundworm in His Highness Chia Ge's stomach, anyway, there are many There is no possibility, but seeking peace is absolutely impossible. It is more difficult than reaching heaven to make His Highness Qiege bow his head. His Highness lowered his head.
Yang Hao's temper was already in a hurry, and this was at a critical juncture, Xiao Lezi dared to hesitate, he gritted his teeth and said, "Xiao Lezi, I think you don't want your head anymore!"
Xiao Lezi flicked his sleeves when he heard this, and there was a handkerchief in his hand. He raised his orchid fingers, wiped the corners of his eyes, and sobbed a few times. With a few beeps, the word grievance was vividly interpreted.
"Boom, Your Majesty, the servant really doesn't know. Boom, Your Majesty, you should spare the servant. If Your Majesty summons His Highness Qiege in first, then after His Majesty Qiege comes in, you will know everything. Is it?"
After speaking, Xiao Lezi looked at Yang Hao, only to see that the anger in his eyes was even worse.
But in the blink of an eye, Xiao Lezi's shirt was soaked in cold sweat. If he didn't persuade Yang Hao, then his head would really have to move. He hasn't lived enough yet, and he doesn't want to die yet! ! !
Xiao Lezi raised her orchid fingers, wiped the corners of her eyes lightly with a handkerchief, and the eyeballs were also spinning rapidly in the sockets, "Your Majesty guesses so now, there must be a long delay, and His Highness Ge is waiting outside the hall..." Seeing Yang Hao's eyes Xiao Lezi's anger subsided a little, and Xiao Lezi hurriedly continued: "Your Highness is so smart, if you didn't think about it, then His Majesty will do this, I'm afraid..."
What Xiao Lezi said is right, Miss Huang is suspicious by nature, she thinks a lot, if she doesn't know about this, but because of his action, what should she do if she sends someone to investigate?
"Quickly, let Miss Huang come in!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Xiao Lezi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it was really frighteningly scary, but his head was saved!
Xiao Lezi walked outside the hall, and after saluting Qie Ge respectfully, he said, "Your Highness Qie Ge, please come in!"
Qie Ge walked into the hall. Usually, if she came to see Yang Hao, Xiao Lezi would go in with a word, but why did she wait so long today?Could it be that something happened?
At the same time that Qiege stepped into the hall, Yang Hao put down the memorial in his hand, looked at Qiege, he got up and said with a smile: "Sister Huang? Why did Sister Huang come to see Hao'er today?"
There was joy in his tone, pretending as if he just knew that the song was coming.
Xiao Lezi lowered his head and continued to watch as if he had no eyesight. This drama is too much! ! !
Yang Hao's move made Qie Ge suddenly not know what to say, didn't Xiao Lezi pass it on?
"Leaving the mansion today, I walked to the gate of the palace, thinking that I haven't seen Hao'er for a few days, so I came into the palace to visit."
Yang Hao smiled more and more happily, but his eyes kept staring at Qiege, trying to see the flaws on her face, but unfortunately he didn't see anything. Could it be that he really came to visit him as Sister Huang said?
"It's Hao'er, but what kind of trouble did you encounter?" Qiege asked tentatively, otherwise why did it take so long to let her in.
Yang Hao is the emperor, and he deals with those old foxes all day long, and he knows that Ge Ge is testing him. The smile on his face gradually collapsed and turned into a worried one. It's just because of several memorials that I have been having trouble sleeping and eating in the past few days."
"Oh?"
Yang Hao picked up several memorials on the table and handed them to Qiege, who read them carefully after receiving them.
Although Huang Jie knew him, he also knew Huang Jie. He knew that Huang Jie's thoughts were all in blue, so it would not be wrong to use state affairs to divert Huang Jie's attention.
Seeing that Qie Ge's expression was serious and serious, and his thoughts were all on the memorial, Yang Hao also believed in Qie Ge's words just now.
After reading it, he closed the memorial, "This Zhong Yao, although he is the prefect of Suzhou, has been bullying men and women in recent years, committing all kinds of evil, and he should really get rid of it!"
Yang Hao nodded and said: "In the past, there were ministers who impeached Xu Yao, but Suzhou is far away from Chang'an City, and considering Prime Minister Zuo's status in the court, I suppressed all those memorials."
Qiege moved lightly, went to the chair and sat down, "Hasn't Hao'er been witnessed, why didn't you move him back then?"
Yang Hao was not surprised and Ge knew about this, "I wanted to wait until Xu Yao's power gradually increased, and after he became Prime Minister Zuo's confidant, I would pull him down in one fell swoop and deal with Prime Minister Zuo together, but who would have imagined that?" , Those people died inexplicably a few days ago."
Qiege played with the white jade bracelet on his wrist, "Then what is Hao'er going to do now?"
Mentioning this, Yang Hao sighed, "There is no proof of death now, and I don't know when we can deal with him." He looked at Qie Ge, with distress and guilt in his eyes, and said: "The reason why the people suffer so much is that I am also sorry. Get away with it, Miss Huang, I..."
"Am I...I..." Yang Hao finally couldn't say that sentence.
What Yang Hao wanted to say was clear in her heart, she said with a slight smile: "Hao'er, do you remember when we were young, you and I played chess together with the emperor?"
"Sister Huang...but you want to talk about abandoning the pawn and bailing the car?"
"Exactly, a mere Xu Yao, no matter how serious his crimes are, is nothing more than a chess piece of Prime Minister Zuo." Qige looked at Yang Hao again, seeing his gloomy expression, she changed the topic, "But... ..."
Yang Hao looked at Qige, "But what?"
"However, Xu Yao has done a lot for Prime Minister Zuo now. If Xu Yao is eradicated now, although Prime Minister Zuo cannot be eradicated, he will definitely be able to pull out one of his fangs." The implication is that Yang Hao It was poorly done, but well done.
Yang Hao was overjoyed, his previously gloomy gaze returned to its former expression, Miss Huang was praising him!
But not long after, Yang Hao's eyes dimmed again, "But now that the witnesses are all dead, Xu Yao will definitely take precautions."
"Since we have already started to scare the snake, how about Hao'er to send an imperial envoy to Suzhou for inspection."
Yang Hao thought about what Qie Ge said, "Xu Yao has succeeded, he must have thought that we would continue to investigate secretly, but now he is sending people to deal with the imperial envoy face to face, but secretly worrying about this matter, With such a two-pronged attack, he will surely lose his balance, and then we will seize his criminal evidence in one fell swoop?"
Qie Ge nodded, with a smile on her lips, and even more relief in her eyes. She deliberately didn't finish the rest of the sentence just now, in order to wait for Yang Hao to comprehend it by herself.
"Then Miss Huang has a favorite candidate for the imperial envoy?"
And with a smile in his eyes, he said the candidate in his heart, "Mu Xu!"
Yang Hao was startled, "Huh?"
"Ah?" Qingqian and Xiaolezi were as surprised as Yang Hao.
His Royal Highness Qie Ge has always been unselfish, and the previous consorts have never been protected by His Highness Qie Ge in the court, and now His Royal Highness Qie Ge has taken the initiative to ask the concubine to be an imperial envoy? !
How could this surprise them! ! !
Yang Hao asked again: "Emperor... Is Mu Xu the imperial envoy that Miss Huang wants???"
Is it true that he heard wrong?
Qiege nodded and said, "Yes!"
"Sister Huang, the son-in-law is a woman, Canglan has no precedent for a woman to be an official!!!"
Xiao Lezi really wanted to say something, why didn't she think of this when she gave her a marriage! ?
"I didn't say that the son-in-law would be an official in the court."
Yang Hao was even more puzzled. He didn't want Mu Xu to be an official in the court, but also let Mu Xu be the imperial envoy for this inspection. What does the emperor mean?
"Then what is the meaning of this, Miss Huang?"
"The son-in-law is from Suzhou. I have been married to the son-in-law for a few days, and I haven't met my parents-in-law yet. This time I go to visit the two elders together."
And Ge paused, and continued: "Because women are not allowed to be officials, who would have thought that the imperial envoy would be a son-in-law? And the identity of the imperial envoy...you can just fabricate someone at will, the lower the rank, the better."
Mu Xu has been away from home for a long time, she will definitely miss her relatives, and it happens that Xu Yao is in Suzhou, when Mu Xu knew what she did, she couldn't believe that Mu Xu would hate her that much!
Yang Hao suddenly said, "Sister Huang's plan is very good, then I will send Xiao Lezi to announce the decree tomorrow!"
After this matter was resolved, Yang Hao was very happy, but it didn't take long for him to be happy, and Ge not only stopped talking, but also looked at him with unclear meaning.
Yang Hao touched his face, could it be that there is something wrong with his face, otherwise why does Miss Huang keep looking at him?
I don't know how long it lasted like this, Yang Hao couldn't bear it anymore, he said: "Sister Huang...do you want some snacks?"
"No need."
Yang Hao became more and more guilty, and his body gradually tensed up. Didn't he divert Huang Jie's attention? Why hasn't Huang Jie's doubts been dispelled?
In the end, Yang Hao shifted his gaze to Xiao Lezi, and he suddenly reprimanded: "Xiao Lezi, I think you have lived a good life recently, the emperor has been sitting here for a long time, you bastard, you don't give it to the emperor. Serve tea!"
Xiao Lezi was so frightened that he immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed and said: "I know my mistake, I know my mistake, please forgive me, please forgive me!"
And the song squinted her eyes, she just did it on purpose, to scare Yang Hao, so that he could mess himself up, and now Yang Hao's move is also in line with her guess.
Qiege stood up and said, "There is no need to use this tea, I should go home too."
"Miss Huang is going back to the mansion now?"
A trace of luck flashed in Yang Hao's eyes, but he was caught by Qiege, "Jingshu is still waiting for me to discuss matters in the house with her."
"Then...then I won't keep Miss Huang, please go slowly, Miss Huang."
Qiege turned around and walked out of the hall, Qingqian closely followed her footsteps.
After Qiege disappeared from his sight, Yang Hao's tense body was relaxed, and he finally left!
But it didn't take long for him to relax, and the song came back.
Yang Hao stood up suddenly, with some panic in surprise, "Sister Huang?"
Qie Ge said with a smile: "Just now when I walked out of the hall, I realized that this memorial has not been returned to Hao'er."
After she finished speaking, she handed the memorial in her hand to Yang Hao, and Yang Hao took it and laughed a few times, his movements and demeanor were extremely unnatural.
Besides, I forgot the song, it was obviously brought out on purpose, just to kill the carbine.
Yang Hao pretended to cough lightly, "Cough...Xiao Lezi, what are you still kneeling on, why don't you get up quickly, and send the emperor off!"
Xiao Lezi hurriedly got up, "Yes, the servant obeys the order!"
"There is no need to send it."
Qi Ge approached Yang Hao, the closer the two got, the more nervous Yang Hao became, what did Miss Huang find? !
And the song stopped in front of Yang Hao, the corner of her mouth slowly curled into a smile, her hand climbed onto Yang Hao's clothes, because of this action, Yang Hao's heart rose to his throat.
Qiege stared at Yang Hao's clothes, smoothed out the folds on it, and said: "Although Hao'er is the king of a country and shoulders the responsibility of the country, he should rest well."
Yang Hao felt warm in his heart, "Sister Huang said yes, and Hao'er will remember it."
And the meaning in Ge's eyes was unclear, she smiled and said: "In the past, Hao'er was as tall as me, but now Hao'er is much taller than me, Hao'er has really grown up!"
Yang Hao couldn't figure it out, why did Sister Huang say these words?
Before Yang Hao could ask a question, Qie Ge said, "I'm going first, I can't let Jing Shu wait for me, it's always bad to break trust."
The word "broken promise" surprised Yang Hao. Is Miss Huang talking about Jiang Huaisheng at the wedding banquet? !
If this is the case, then it is not difficult to explain what Huang Jie did today, because Huang Jie said that she spared Jiang Huaisheng that day.
But why did Miss Huang ask him to let Jiang Huaisheng go?
Even if Jiang Huaisheng had ten heads, it would not be enough to cut off the royal family.
Jiang Huaisheng died, who is most sad?
Don't even think about it, except for the Jiang family, that's the son-in-law, but the son-in-law is sad, what does it have to do with the emperor's sister?
Unless the emperor fell in love with Mu Xu, she would be sad because she was sad.
This...how is this possible! ! !
Sister Huang and Mu Xu have only been married for a few days. It's not long since they first met and got married. How could it be possible to fall in love with her.
But if the imperial sister fell in love with Mu Xu, wouldn't he be self-defeating? !
No, he must not allow this to happen!
Yang Hao said: "Xiao Lezi, pass on my order to let Jiang Huaisheng go!"
Jiang Huaisheng can't die right now, the only way to put an end to the two of them is to let him go and make Mu Xu feel concerned.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Qie Ge raised her head without showing any emotion on her face. She stopped the movements of her hands, stared at the hidden guard kneeling in front of her, and asked, "Is this really true?"
The dark guard said: "Return to the master, it is absolutely true!"
Qi Ge lowered his eyes and continued to write. If he said it, Qi Ge would not be surprised. He should be beheaded if he disrespects the royal family. "Can you be beheaded after a few days?"
"Not yet determined."
"Go back."
"Yes!"
Qingqian stood beside Qiege, grinding.
After writing down a few words, the song seemed to remind her of something. Since she reminded Mu Xu that day, she hadn't seen Mu Xu for a while, "What has Mu Xu been doing these days?"
"My son-in-law is in Nuanxiang Xiaozhu as usual."

It's true that Mu Xu is soft-hearted, but rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry. This is not afraid of ten thousand, just in case.
Qingqian understands the meaning of the song, "Peach Blossom and Green Bamboo have followed the son-in-law all the time since they were punished."
And the song nodded, it's always good to be looked at by others. Although Taohua Cuizhu and the others are slaves and cannot disobey their master's orders, at least they will not let Mu Xu do some stupid things.
"Prepare the sedan chair and enter the palace."
Qingqian put down the ink stick, "Yes, Your Highness!"

"Old man, you can take the money."
The old man understood now. It's not that Mu Xu didn't hear clearly, but he deliberately gave him so much money, which he couldn't accept.
"My old man appreciates the girl's kindness. Although the old man's body is not as strong as before, his hands are still flexible and he can do it. I can't take this money. You should take it back!"

Yang Hao slammed the writing brush in his hand firmly at Xiao Lezi. He lowered his voice, gritted his teeth and scolded: "You bastard! Didn't you order someone to seal your mouth? How could Huang Jie come?!"
Xiao Lezi's grievance, he did follow His Majesty's order and sealed everyone's mouths, but how did he know how His Highness Qige knew about it? In order to avoid being offended, Xiao Lezi hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Perhaps His Highness is not here for Miss An Ran's affairs?"
Yang Hao looked anxious, "Then what's wrong with the emperor?"
"This... this... this...", Xiao Lezi wiped off his cold sweat, even if he was killed, he would not know, he is not the roundworm in His Highness Chia Ge's stomach, anyway, there are many There is no possibility, but seeking peace is absolutely impossible. It is more difficult than reaching heaven to make His Highness Qiege bow his head. His Highness lowered his head.
Yang Hao's temper was already in a hurry, and this was at a critical juncture, Xiao Lezi dared to hesitate, he gritted his teeth and said, "Xiao Lezi, I think you don't want your head anymore!"
Xiao Lezi flicked his sleeves when he heard this, and there was a handkerchief in his hand. He raised his orchid fingers, wiped the corners of his eyes, and sobbed a few times. With a few beeps, the word grievance was vividly interpreted.
"Boom, Your Majesty, the servant really doesn't know. Boom, Your Majesty, you should spare the servant. If Your Majesty summons His Highness Qiege in first, then after His Majesty Qiege comes in, you will know everything. Is it?"
After speaking, Xiao Lezi looked at Yang Hao, only to see that the anger in his eyes was even worse.
But in the blink of an eye, Xiao Lezi's shirt was soaked in cold sweat. If he didn't persuade Yang Hao, then his head would really have to move. He hasn't lived enough yet, and he doesn't want to die yet! ! !
Xiao Lezi raised her orchid fingers, wiped the corners of her eyes lightly with a handkerchief, and the eyeballs were also spinning rapidly in the sockets, "Your Majesty guesses so now, there must be a long delay, and His Highness Ge is waiting outside the hall..." Seeing Yang Hao's eyes Xiao Lezi's anger subsided a little, and Xiao Lezi hurriedly continued: "Your Highness is so smart, if you didn't think about it, then His Majesty will do this, I'm afraid..."
What Xiao Lezi said is right, Miss Huang is suspicious by nature, she thinks a lot, if she doesn't know about this, but because of his action, what should she do if she sends someone to investigate?
"Quickly, let Miss Huang come in!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Xiao Lezi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it was really frighteningly scary, but his head was saved!
Xiao Lezi walked outside the hall, and after saluting Qie Ge respectfully, he said, "Your Highness Qie Ge, please come in!"
Qie Ge walked into the hall. Usually, if she came to see Yang Hao, Xiao Lezi would go in with a word, but why did she wait so long today?Could it be that something happened?
At the same time that Qiege stepped into the hall, Yang Hao put down the memorial in his hand, looked at Qiege, he got up and said with a smile: "Sister Huang? Why did Sister Huang come to see Hao'er today?"
There was joy in his tone, pretending as if he just knew that the song was coming.
Xiao Lezi lowered his head and continued to watch as if he had no eyesight. This drama is too much! ! !
Yang Hao's move made Qie Ge suddenly not know what to say, didn't Xiao Lezi pass it on?
"Leaving the mansion today, I walked to the gate of the palace, thinking that I haven't seen Hao'er for a few days, so I came into the palace to visit."
Yang Hao smiled more and more happily, but his eyes kept staring at Qiege, trying to see the flaws on her face, but unfortunately he didn't see anything. Could it be that he really came to visit him as Sister Huang said?
"It's Hao'er, but what kind of trouble did you encounter?" Qiege asked tentatively, otherwise why did it take so long to let her in.
Yang Hao is the emperor, and he deals with those old foxes all day long, and he knows that Ge Ge is testing him. The smile on his face gradually collapsed and turned into a worried one. It's just because of several memorials that I have been having trouble sleeping and eating in the past few days."
"Oh?"
Yang Hao picked up several memorials on the table and handed them to Qiege, who read them carefully after receiving them.
Although Huang Jie knew him, he also knew Huang Jie. He knew that Huang Jie's thoughts were all in blue, so it would not be wrong to use state affairs to divert Huang Jie's attention.
Seeing that Qie Ge's expression was serious and serious, and his thoughts were all on the memorial, Yang Hao also believed in Qie Ge's words just now.
After reading it, he closed the memorial, "This Zhong Yao, although he is the prefect of Suzhou, has been bullying men and women in recent years, committing all kinds of evil, and he should really get rid of it!"
Yang Hao nodded and said: "In the past, there were ministers who impeached Xu Yao, but Suzhou is far away from Chang'an City, and considering Prime Minister Zuo's status in the court, I suppressed all those memorials."
Qiege moved lightly, went to the chair and sat down, "Hasn't Hao'er been witnessed, why didn't you move him back then?"
Yang Hao was not surprised and Ge knew about this, "I wanted to wait until Xu Yao's power gradually increased, and after he became Prime Minister Zuo's confidant, I would pull him down in one fell swoop and deal with Prime Minister Zuo together, but who would have imagined that?" , Those people died inexplicably a few days ago."
Qiege played with the white jade bracelet on his wrist, "Then what is Hao'er going to do now?"
Mentioning this, Yang Hao sighed, "There is no proof of death now, and I don't know when we can deal with him." He looked at Qie Ge, with distress and guilt in his eyes, and said: "The reason why the people suffer so much is that I am also sorry. Get away with it, Miss Huang, I..."
"Am I...I..." Yang Hao finally couldn't say that sentence.
What Yang Hao wanted to say was clear in her heart, she said with a slight smile: "Hao'er, do you remember when we were young, you and I played chess together with the emperor?"
"Sister Huang...but you want to talk about abandoning the pawn and bailing the car?"
"Exactly, a mere Xu Yao, no matter how serious his crimes are, is nothing more than a chess piece of Prime Minister Zuo." Qige looked at Yang Hao again, seeing his gloomy expression, she changed the topic, "But... ..."
Yang Hao looked at Qige, "But what?"
"However, Xu Yao has done a lot for Prime Minister Zuo now. If Xu Yao is eradicated now, although Prime Minister Zuo cannot be eradicated, he will definitely be able to pull out one of his fangs." The implication is that Yang Hao It was poorly done, but well done.
Yang Hao was overjoyed, his previously gloomy gaze returned to its former expression, Miss Huang was praising him!
But not long after, Yang Hao's eyes dimmed again, "But now that the witnesses are all dead, Xu Yao will definitely take precautions."
"Since we have already started to scare the snake, how about Hao'er to send an imperial envoy to Suzhou for inspection."
Yang Hao thought about what Qie Ge said, "Xu Yao has succeeded, he must have thought that we would continue to investigate secretly, but now he is sending people to deal with the imperial envoy face to face, but secretly worrying about this matter, With such a two-pronged attack, he will surely lose his balance, and then we will seize his criminal evidence in one fell swoop?"
Qie Ge nodded, with a smile on her lips, and even more relief in her eyes. She deliberately didn't finish the rest of the sentence just now, in order to wait for Yang Hao to comprehend it by herself.
"Then Miss Huang has a favorite candidate for the imperial envoy?"
And with a smile in his eyes, he said the candidate in his heart, "Mu Xu!"
Yang Hao was startled, "Huh?"
"Ah?" Qingqian and Xiaolezi were as surprised as Yang Hao.
His Royal Highness Qie Ge has always been unselfish, and the previous consorts have never been protected by His Highness Qie Ge in the court, and now His Royal Highness Qie Ge has taken the initiative to ask the concubine to be an imperial envoy? !
How could this surprise them! ! !
Yang Hao asked again: "Emperor... Is Mu Xu the imperial envoy that Miss Huang wants???"
Is it true that he heard wrong?
Qiege nodded and said, "Yes!"
"Sister Huang, the son-in-law is a woman, Canglan has no precedent for a woman to be an official!!!"
Xiao Lezi really wanted to say something, why didn't she think of this when she gave her a marriage! ?
"I didn't say that the son-in-law would be an official in the court."
Yang Hao was even more puzzled. He didn't want Mu Xu to be an official in the court, but also let Mu Xu be the imperial envoy for this inspection. What does the emperor mean?
"Then what is the meaning of this, Miss Huang?"
"The son-in-law is from Suzhou. I have been married to the son-in-law for a few days, and I haven't met my parents-in-law yet. This time I go to visit the two elders together."
And Ge paused, and continued: "Because women are not allowed to be officials, who would have thought that the imperial envoy would be a son-in-law? And the identity of the imperial envoy...you can just fabricate someone at will, the lower the rank, the better."
Mu Xu has been away from home for a long time, she will definitely miss her relatives, and it happens that Xu Yao is in Suzhou, when Mu Xu knew what she did, she couldn't believe that Mu Xu would hate her that much!
Yang Hao suddenly said, "Sister Huang's plan is very good, then I will send Xiao Lezi to announce the decree tomorrow!"
After this matter was resolved, Yang Hao was very happy, but it didn't take long for him to be happy, and Ge not only stopped talking, but also looked at him with unclear meaning.
Yang Hao touched his face, could it be that there is something wrong with his face, otherwise why does Miss Huang keep looking at him?
I don't know how long it lasted like this, Yang Hao couldn't bear it anymore, he said: "Sister Huang...do you want some snacks?"
"No need."
Yang Hao became more and more guilty, and his body gradually tensed up. Didn't he divert Huang Jie's attention? Why hasn't Huang Jie's doubts been dispelled?
In the end, Yang Hao shifted his gaze to Xiao Lezi, and he suddenly reprimanded: "Xiao Lezi, I think you have lived a good life recently, the emperor has been sitting here for a long time, you bastard, you don't give it to the emperor. Serve tea!"
Xiao Lezi was so frightened that he immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed and said: "I know my mistake, I know my mistake, please forgive me, please forgive me!"
And the song squinted her eyes, she just did it on purpose, to scare Yang Hao, so that he could mess himself up, and now Yang Hao's move is also in line with her guess.
Qiege stood up and said, "There is no need to use this tea, I should go home too."
"Miss Huang is going back to the mansion now?"
A trace of luck flashed in Yang Hao's eyes, but he was caught by Qiege, "Jingshu is still waiting for me to discuss matters in the house with her."
"Then...then I won't keep Miss Huang, please go slowly, Miss Huang."
Qiege turned around and walked out of the hall, Qingqian closely followed her footsteps.
After Qiege disappeared from his sight, Yang Hao's tense body was relaxed, and he finally left!
But it didn't take long for him to relax, and the song came back.
Yang Hao stood up suddenly, with some panic in surprise, "Sister Huang?"
Qie Ge said with a smile: "Just now when I walked out of the hall, I realized that this memorial has not been returned to Hao'er."
After she finished speaking, she handed the memorial in her hand to Yang Hao, and Yang Hao took it and laughed a few times, his movements and demeanor were extremely unnatural.
Besides, I forgot the song, it was obviously brought out on purpose, just to kill the carbine.
Yang Hao pretended to cough lightly, "Cough...Xiao Lezi, what are you still kneeling on, why don't you get up quickly, and send the emperor off!"
Xiao Lezi hurriedly got up, "Yes, the servant obeys the order!"
"There is no need to send it."
Qi Ge approached Yang Hao, the closer the two got, the more nervous Yang Hao became, what did Miss Huang find? !
And the song stopped in front of Yang Hao, the corner of her mouth slowly curled into a smile, her hand climbed onto Yang Hao's clothes, because of this action, Yang Hao's heart rose to his throat.
Qiege stared at Yang Hao's clothes, smoothed out the folds on it, and said: "Although Hao'er is the king of a country and shoulders the responsibility of the country, he should rest well."
Yang Hao felt warm in his heart, "Sister Huang said yes, and Hao'er will remember it."
And the meaning in Ge's eyes was unclear, she smiled and said: "In the past, Hao'er was as tall as me, but now Hao'er is much taller than me, Hao'er has really grown up!"
Yang Hao couldn't figure it out, why did Sister Huang say these words?
Before Yang Hao could ask a question, Qie Ge said, "I'm going first, I can't let Jing Shu wait for me, it's always bad to break trust."
The word "broken promise" surprised Yang Hao. Is Miss Huang talking about Jiang Huaisheng at the wedding banquet? !
If this is the case, then it is not difficult to explain what Huang Jie did today, because Huang Jie said that she spared Jiang Huaisheng that day.
But why did Miss Huang ask him to let Jiang Huaisheng go?
Even if Jiang Huaisheng had ten heads, it would not be enough to cut off the royal family.
Jiang Huaisheng died, who is most sad?
Don't even think about it, except for the Jiang family, that's the son-in-law, but the son-in-law is sad, what does it have to do with the emperor's sister?
Unless the emperor fell in love with Mu Xu, she would be sad because she was sad.
This...how is this possible! ! !
Sister Huang and Mu Xu have only been married for a few days. It's not long since they first met and got married. How could it be possible to fall in love with her.
But if the imperial sister fell in love with Mu Xu, wouldn't he be self-defeating? !
No, he must not allow this to happen!
Yang Hao said: "Xiao Lezi, pass on my order to let Jiang Huaisheng go!"
Jiang Huaisheng can't die right now, the only way to put an end to the two of them is to let him go and make Mu Xu feel concerned.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
