Is Your Majesty jealous today?

Fans and white clothes are what Xi Chi takes most when he goes out.

He stretched out his hand towards Xiaojing, and Xiaojing took out a folding fan with white jade fan bones from his sleeve and gave it to Xichi.

Xi Chi didn't put it on the table this time, he just held it in his hand: "This one is also my favorite."

Xiao Jing muttered softly beside him: "My lord, as long as it is for your own use, there is nothing you don't love."

If a thing is accepted by Xi Chi, then this thing must be liked by Xi Chi.

Duan Wenbin, the young master of Guangping Hou Mansion, was at another table. He was sitting with Qiao Yun, and he was a little curious when he heard others talking about the past between Xichi and Shengyue: "Brother Qiao, that Mr. Song Is it true or not?"

Qiao Yun nodded: "What Song Mao just said is true. Shengyue is indeed at odds with Junior Brother Yao. If Junior Brother Yao has feelings for Shengyue, the sun will come out from the west."

Duan Wenbin secretly looked in Xichi's direction.

Looking at it from a distance is not as good as looking at it up close. Xi Chi's face is too perfect, which is the most suitable for careful appreciation, but among a group of people, Xi Chi's face is the best. Wine. Both of you are in the capital, why don't you communicate much?"

Qiao Yun said: "Forget it, so as not to be said that I am a high-ranking son. When Mr. Yin was imprisoned, I couldn't say anything. What are you doing now? I'm afraid people like Junior Brother Yao look down on me, and the emperor is beside me." , I dare not."

Duan Wenbin gave the drink to Qiao Yun: "Brother Qiao, Mr. Qiao, just go over and toast. I poured this glass of wine myself. I have admired Xi Chi for two years, so I will definitely ask him to drink it. Don't worry, you With such a low official position, you don't even have the qualifications to go to court, the emperor will definitely not remember you."

There's nothing Qiao Yun can do about Duan Wenbin's self-willedness as a young master.

Duan Wenbin came from a famous family, Qiao Yun couldn't afford to offend the other party, he saw two juniors in front of him went to Xi Chi, so he had no choice but to take the wine from the young master.

Zhong Ye is in a much better mood. He doesn't like such crowded occasions. He has other things to do right now: "You and your seniors continue to feast, and I'll go out to get some fresh air."

Gu Liang got a look from Zhong Ye, and walked out after a while.

Zheng Ru followed Zhong Ye: "What I want to tell the emperor is what the surnamed Song just said. Mr. Xi and Sheng Yue have nothing to do. I asked several people, and they were there when Sheng Yue was there. They all said Xi The Young Master and Sheng Yue hate each other, and usually they don't talk to each other."

Zhong Ye said coldly: "I should have inquired about this matter long ago."

Xi Chi never wanted to mention Sheng Yue, so Zhong Ye thought that the other party was sad, so he felt that the rumors were all true.

It turned out that I was wrong at the beginning.

Xi Chi was unwilling to mention Sheng Yue because he never cared about Sheng Yue.To Xi Chi, Sheng Yue is just a very annoying classmate, because of disgust and indifference, so that Xi Chi never wants to talk about each other's affairs.

Zheng Ru said: "It's the slave who was negligent. The slave should have shared the emperor's worries, so that the emperor doesn't have to worry about it for so long."

Gu Liang came over from behind. Seeing no one around, he bowed to Zhong Ye: "My subject, Gu Liang, pays homage to the emperor."

Zhong Ye turned around and said, "Get up. In the past two years, we have done a good job in Chun'an Mansion. The embankment and flood control have been very effective. There is no flood in Weili Province this year."

Gu Liangdao: "With the emperor's guidance, the minister will be handy. Everything is due to the emperor's wisdom."

"I don't need to say more about these flattering words, how about the newly appointed governor of Weili Province?" Zhong Ye said, "I will transfer you to Yuejiang, and then go to the south, and I have nothing to do with him, so tell the truth. "

Gu Liang didn't dare to lie in front of Zhong Ye. Zhong Ye's eyes made people submit with fear: "I have seen Mr. Zhongcheng before, and I often heard him mentioned by his colleagues. Mr. Zhongcheng has a clean and upright family, and the two young masters in the family are still studying. They are all first class gentle and courteous, and he himself acts vigorously and decisively, and there is nothing wrong with him except that the punishment for the subordinates is too severe."

Zhong Ye nodded: "I single-handedly picked him up, I hope I didn't misjudge him. You have made political achievements here, and I sent you to Yuejiang to be a Taoist priest. You still have the secret authority, no matter your superior Subordinates, they should tell me if they have trouble. Gu Liang, I have great expectations of you, so don't let me down."

Gu Liang tends to be indecisive and indecisive in his actions. After two years of experience, he has grown a lot.Although he does not have the courage and courage of Xi Xiuyuan, his ideas are purer and easier to manipulate than Xi Xiuyuan.

The Taoist is the fourth rank, and the magistrate is from the fourth rank.This recalls that Liang has been promoted, and if he goes up, he will either be a big official in Xinjiang, or he will be transferred back to the capital.

He is still so young, less than 30 years old, and there is no official in the family to help him, so Gu Liang was ecstatic when he heard Zhong Ye's words, and quickly knelt down: "Thank you, Lord Long En."

Zhong Ye had a half-smile but not a smile: "You have to thank you for being lucky and having a good junior who recruits blessings."

Gu Liang naturally remembers Xichi, he has today, which is closely related to Xichi.

If Xi Chi hadn't appeared back then, Zhong Ye would not have been able to cultivate and train him in the past two years, so he is still a small county magistrate in Qing County.

Zhong Ye didn't take Gu Liang too seriously.

He has countless pawns like Gu Liang, and Zhong Ye's eyeliner is everywhere.He has a strong desire for power, and the power must be firmly held in his hands, and local officials should not be allowed to be too arrogant.

He is the only emperor, and he is the only one who can receive the treatment of the emperor. All the feudal officials, princes and nobles are his subjects, and they need to submit to him.

They cannot be overridden at all.

Zhong Ye said: "Go down."

Gu Liang kowtowed and stepped back. He had just taken two steps when Zhong Ye stopped him again: "That scholar named Song Mao, tell him my identity later."

Gu Liang rolled his eyes: probably the emperor thinks that people like Song Mao who follow the wind are not gentlemen, so he wants to dismiss Song Mao from his position.

"He is articulate and can speak well. I want to transfer him to the capital. What do you think?"

Gu Liang was taken aback.

But he didn't dare to say anything, the emperor can use whoever he likes, anyone like himself can be a fourth-rank Taoist, even though Song Mao is a villain, he is full of talent, maybe he can be taught by the emperor to be a good person.

Zhong Ye knows what Gu Liang is thinking, he has this ability to read minds.

But he didn't want to turn Song Mao into a good person at all.

Whether it is a gentleman or a villain, Zhong Ye will take advantage of it, and both have their own advantages and disadvantages.

Gu Liang immediately reacted: "Senior Brother Song is very good, your majesty is wise, I think Senior Brother Song will appreciate your kindness and virtue."

Xi Chi drank a lot of wine today, Bai Ming and Zhao Li helped him block some, but he was still drunk in the end.

I don't know what kind of wine is so strong, and the weather is very hot, and Xi Chi's white robe is very stuffy.

Seeing that his face was blushing, Bai Ming hurriedly said: "Junior brother Yao, you are drunk, I will send you back to rest."

Xi Chi felt that he was so hot that he didn't have a clear consciousness. He staggered back: "I'm a little drunk, where is Xiaojing? Let Xiaojing accompany me back."

Bai Ming said: "He was just called away to move things."

Said Bai Ming helped Xi Chi: "Let's go, where did you go last night?"

Xi Chi walked unsteadily, his body was on fire, the memories of last night came to mind unconsciously, he didn't feel anything last night, but now when he thinks about it, he feels dry mouth.

"The tryst is gone."

Bai Ming didn't believe it: "Nonsense, there is no good-looking maid in Liu's family, who are you going to have a tryst with?"

"With the emperor."

Bai Ming grabbed Xi Chi and kicked open the door, and threw Xi Chi on the bed: "Junior Brother Yao, you are so drunk that you are talking nonsense, if you have a tryst with the emperor, I can marry a hundred princesses and go home tomorrow."

Xi Chi turned over after falling asleep: "Brother Yi..."

Bai Ming didn't hear what Qing Xichi was saying, he went out: "I asked Xiaojing to serve you, and asked someone to cook some sober soup. Those people are really, they don't answer us, but they just keep going." Toast to you."

As soon as Bai Ming went out, he saw a young man with a fair face in a Chinese robe. This young man was Duan Wenbin, the lingering young master of the Guangping Hou Mansion.

Duan Wenbin saw Xi Chi drink the medicinal wine Qiao Yun gave him, and followed him all the way just now.

Bai Ming glanced at him: "Your Excellency—"

Duan Wenbin said: "I'm the son of the Marquis of Guangping. He made friends with Xichi in the capital. You let me in. I have something to say with Xichi."

Ordinary people are about to let go.

Duan Wenbin felt that his rhetoric was perfect.

Xi Chi is not a girl's house, so he pretends to be Xi Chi's friend and goes in to molested Xi Chi. After being drugged, Xi Chi naturally caters to him. The two try it secretly, maybe there will be a second or third time when they return to Beijing.

Bai Ming leaned against the door and refused to let him go: "You and Yao Xi are good friends, then tell me what he is best at, what he is not good at, what he usually likes to eat, what he doesn't eat, what kind of wine he likes to drink, what kind of wine he doesn't like to drink What is his birthday, and how old is he this year?"

Duan Wenbin was not very happy: "Brother, are you deliberately making things difficult for me?"

"Good friends always drink and chat together. You don't know about this? I'm more reliable than you if I recruit any junior." Bai Ming said, "He's so drunk that he's unconscious. You go in and talk to him, and he can understand you. ? Why didn’t he say it when he was sober? It would kill him later when he was sober?”

Duan Wenbin said: "Do you know who I am? I am the direct son of the Marquis of Guangping, and I am related to the royal family. My aunt is the princess of this dynasty."

Bai Ming raised his chin: "Who are you? It's none of my business? Who hasn't had a famous person in eighteen generations? I won't leave, but I won't let you in to see my junior brother."

Duan Wenbin couldn't help threatening Bai Ming: "I can kill your whole family with just a little movement of a finger."

Bai Ming is not a fuel-efficient lamp, he sneered and said: "Come on, move your finger and see if I will die now. Don't say you want to go in, even if the emperor wants to go in, I have to stop it. I won't stop it But you know that someone likes to do this, don't tell me you've taken a fancy to my handsome junior and want to do something wrong while he's drunk?"

Bai Ming is the concubine of the family, and he has no ambitions, so he can just find an errand to cope with and make a living.

But his family is an imperial merchant, much higher status than Gu Liang's family, Duan Wenbin is just the son of a marquis whose family is going into decline, Bai Ming doesn't believe that the other party can really lift a finger to kill his whole family.

At this time, Zhong Ye and Zhao Li came together, with Zhong Ye in front and Zhao Li behind.

Just now Zhao Li reported on his work, and incidentally talked about the current situation in the Southwest. Turning around, an eunuch told Zhong Ye that Xi Chi was drunk, and Zhong Ye came to see Xi Chi, so Zhao Li had to come with him.

The conversation between Duan Wenbin and Bai Ming was heard clearly.

Cold sweat broke out on Zhao Li's forehead in an instant. The two careless people at the corner hadn't noticed them yet. Zhao Li hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Junior Brother Bai offended you with his young and outspoken words. I beg you to punish me lightly."

Zhong Ye didn't care about Bai Ming's offensive words: "Go and have a look."

Duan Wenbin froze for a moment when he saw Zhong Ye, and swallowed back the threatening words, and he was dumbfounded.

It's still unknown what's going on inside Xi Chi, but Duan Wenbin clearly knows that even if he doesn't go in, he can't let Zhong Ye in.

After all, Xichi is the son of King Cheng, and the emperor has been fond of King Cheng's family recently, so he cannot let the emperor know that he is plotting against Xichi secretly.

Zhao Li scolded: "Bai Ming, quickly kneel down to the emperor! What bastards were you talking about just now! Where have you read all the sage books for so many years?"

Bai Ming looked around: "Where did the emperor come from?"

Duan Wenbin had already knelt down: "My minister pays homage to the emperor, long live the emperor."

Bai Ming was silent for a moment, then suddenly remembered that the current emperor is also King Rui's nephew, his knees softened, and he knelt down in front of Zhong Ye: "My humble minister Bai Ming pays his respects to the emperor."

Zhong Ye said: "What happened?"

Duan Wenbin was the first to say: "Just now there was a little conflict with Brother Bai. I was at fault for this matter. Your Majesty, let's go back together. I will punish myself with three cups of apology."

Zhong Ye sneered: "Oh? Where's Xi Chi?"

Bai Ming said: "Junior Brother Yao was drunk and sleeping inside. This young master said he has a good relationship with Junior Brother Yao, so he insisted on going in to have a look."

Zhong Ye looked at Duan Wenbin with a very gloomy gaze: "Really?"

Duan Wenbin said: "I just care about Prince Cheng's son, there is no other meaning."

Right now Duan Wenbin is dead in Zhong Ye's eyes.

Zhong Ye said coldly: "Everyone back off, I'll go in and see how drunk he is."

Duan Wenbin scratched his head and tried to stop Zhong Ye, but he didn't dare to speak.

Zheng Ru chased people away for Zhong Ye: "Everyone, please."

After leaving, Duan Wenbin was covered in cold sweat. He didn't know what disaster he would bring to the Duan family this time. He hoped that he wouldn't be like Prince Chen and Young Master Chen.

Duan Wenbin thought that he hadn't made a mistake yet, so he was definitely not guilty of this.

Next to Bai Ming was punched by Zhao Li, and he covered his head in aggrieved way: "Why didn't you tell me before? I was the only one kept in the dark."

Zhao Li rolled his eyes: "Didn't you just have the courage to say that even if the emperor came, you wouldn't let anyone in?"

Bai Ming rubbed his head: "That useless young master can't separate my head from my body. It's obvious that the emperor can. Even if he doesn't move his fingers, someone will take the initiative to help him do this."
