Leaving the palace, Baigan went all the way to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Taking advantage of Zhou Jin's time in Guangyao County, he wanted to deal with the matter as soon as possible so that he could go back to Shanshui Town for a good year. Yuan Bao probably didn't know what happened at home. Speak to him.

As for the incident with the mother and concubine, Feiying has already found evidence of Guan Jian. The court lady who risked his death to send him to Baifu is still alive, and Feiying has found and protected her. The queen is concerned about the most important witness, and Baigan also asks Feiying to take care of the palace lady, she is his savior.

The leader of the dark guard trained by Zhou Jin has been captured by Feiying himself all year round, and confessed to many scandals committed by Zhou Jin. Now he is under house arrest by Feiying in a secret courtyard. At present, only Zhou Jin is left to unite with the neighboring country Qiandu for treason. As long as this evidence is found, Zhou Jin will be beyond redemption.

Back at the Prime Minister's Mansion, Shu Chenggong and Chen Xingzhou were playing chess. Shu Chenggong was thinking hard at this moment, scratching his head and thinking about what to do next. On the other hand, Chen Xingzhou looked relaxed and didn't pay attention to the other party at all.

In the end, Shu succeeded in losing, and he had to admire Chen Xingzhou's chess skills. A joke, Chen Xingzhou was a member of the chess club when he was in college, and he studied chess hard for four years. How could Shu succeed in the competition?

Seeing Baigan came back, Chen Xingzhou said to Shuchenggong, "Prime Minister Shu, we won't leave this one today, we are going to visit Shungan Mansion."

Shu successfully waved his hand, "Go, go."

Only then did Chen Xingzhou go out with Baigan.

Walking on the road, Chen Xingzhou asked Baigan curiously, "Brother Bai, did the emperor say anything to you? You look serious."

"The same emperor took a look at the former residence of the mother and concubine, and sailed. Things need to be speeded up. After finishing, we can go back to Shanshui Town for the New Year."

"Brother Bai means that you don't intend to obey the emperor's orders and become emperor?" Chen Xingzhou was expecting Bai Gan's answer.

"I won't be the emperor. We promised to live in seclusion together. How could I break my promise?"

"Brother Bai, then let's make an agreement, and then we will live in seclusion together." Chen Xingzhou's mind instantly calmed down, and he was looking forward to the future.

"it is good."

Along the way, all the people who passed by were the mansions of important ministers in the court, such as royal envoys, Taiwei, etc., but Shunqian Mansion is very close to the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Imperial City, and Shunjin Mansion is Zhou Jin's mansion on the opposite side, so it was named after it. It's quite casual, but the meaning is good. Fortunately, Zhou Jin is not there, otherwise it would be unlucky to see him.

The Shunqian Mansion has already been cleaned up, and they must have started to prepare to clean it up when they went to Guangyao County. The gate is guarded by heavy soldiers, and the grade will be improved immediately.

When the two came to the door, they were directly stopped by the gatekeepers, "Who are you? Don't you know that this is the second prince's residence? Are you the ones to break in?"

Going home and being stopped, how can this be justified?Are these officials blind?Can't you see that Baigan and the emperor have an eight-point resemblance?As everyone knows, how have low-level officers and soldiers like them seen the emperor's holy face?

Baigan took out a token, which was given to him by the emperor before he left, and could prove his identity, with the character "Qian" engraved on it, whoever sees this token, sees the second prince.

After looking at the token, the gatekeepers knelt on the ground and kowtowed to beg for mercy, "I have seen the second prince, but they are too small to see Mount Tai. I offended the second prince, and I ask the second prince to forgive me." They felt a pain in their hearts. Ah, I only heard that the second prince is back, but they have never seen the second prince, so they were sent to guard the Shungan Mansion, and even bumped into the second prince, they are about to lose their heads.

The so-called ignorance is not guilty, besides, they also abide by their duties, Baigan waved his hands, "Get up."

"Thank you for not killing the second prince." The officers and soldiers also breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the second prince was kind and didn't punish them for the crime of disrespect.

Being able to enter the Shungan mansion smoothly, Chen Xingzhou and Baigan slowly admired the new mansion. The decoration is quite elegant. Once inside, there is the main hall, and there are two side rooms next to it, which should be guest rooms. A large garden and a fish pond, but it is now September and autumn, and the scenery is not pleasant.

Not halfway through the sightseeing, I saw a middle-aged man hurried over and knelt down and said, "Second prince, this servant is the housekeeper of Shungan Mansion. I didn't know you came and didn't greet you. Please don't blame the second prince."

"Get up, go and do your work, let's take a look." Baigan sent the housekeeper.

The housekeeper stood up and answered "Yes." Then he left in a hurry.

"Brother Bai, this Shungan Mansion is really nice, it is big and luxurious, and there are night pearls for lighting, it must be very beautiful at night." Money is good.

"Yeah, it's a pity we won't be staying for long." Baigan also thinks this place is good.

Chen Xingzhou pulled Baigan back, watched him make up his mind and said, "Brother Bai, after the matter is settled, I will tell you all my secrets."

Baigan stroked Chen Xingzhou's head, looked at him with tender eyes, and said hello.

Chen Xingzhou's heart is like the sky in May, it is very warm, and being able to get a hundred dry is the greatest blessing he has come across.

When the two were looking at each other tenderly, the sound of footsteps sounded from far to near. Baigan let go of Chen Xingzhou. The two of them looked at the direction of the footsteps as if nothing happened. It was the butler trotting over again. It must be laborious to go back and forth.

The butler didn't care about the smoothness, and saluted and said: "Second prince, the empress is here." What's the matter today?Not to mention the arrival of the second prince, even the empress came here in person, but I was lucky enough to pay my respects to the empress' demeanor, and I can brag about it with his old partner for a long time.

Baigan and Chen Xingzhou looked at each other, and within a day of recovering their identities, the queen came to the door, presumably to show him off.

The visitor is a guest, so why not miss him? Baigan ordered: "Please come to the main hall and prepare tea."

"Yes."

The butler ran away in a hurry.

Chen Xingzhou held Baigan's hand, a little worried, "Brother Bai, are you alright? Why don't you let the housekeeper refuse?" Baigan must be in a bad mood when he was about to face his mother-killing enemy.

Baigan put his hands on Chen Xingzhou's, "Xingzhou, don't worry, you have to face what you have to face. It's already 23 years late, and you can't escape anymore. Besides, the person who came is the queen, so there's no reason to refuse to see her. At this time, she can't do anything to me."

Chen Xingzhou was still worried, "Brother Bai, I'll go with you."

"I'm afraid that the queen won't touch me, and instead will punish you. Be obedient, and obediently go to the backyard and find a room to wait for me."

"Alright then." It's better not to trouble Baigan.

When Baigan came to the main hall, the queen had obviously been waiting for a long time, and she drank most of the tea on the table beside her.

When he saw Baigan's appearance, his expression froze obviously, it was too similar, so similar to the emperor, not even Jin'er was so similar, no wonder he confirmed his identity so quickly.

Baigan was also looking at the queen, dressed in a luxurious red palace dress, although he was old, he did not look old, and his delicate face was serious.

Baigan knelt down and saluted, "Zhou Gan has seen the empress."

The queen didn't care about Baigan's self-proclaiming, and said indifferently: "Get up, I heard that the second prince was found a few days ago, and I didn't catch him until today, so I came here to see."

"Thank you, Queen, for your concern."

The queen took a sip of tea and said: "Sit down, don't stand still, you are the emperor's son, and you are also my son. There will be more opportunities to come and go, so don't be cautious."

Baigan sat down after hearing the words, "Thank you queen."

Baigan's behavior was very decent, and he couldn't fault it at all, maybe he didn't know about Concubine Yue.

"I have no other purpose in coming here today, just to see if you are used to staying in Shangjing."

"It's quite a habit."

"I heard that there are three out of twenty sons who are not married yet."

"Yes."

"When everything settles down, I will pick a good girl for you to be the second imperial concubine."

Baigan knew what the empress was thinking, and he just wanted to insert someone from his side. There was nothing more perfect than the second imperial concubine's eyeliner.

"Thank you for the empress's kindness, but the emperor's brother has not yet married a wife. How can the minister get married before the emperor's brother? It doesn't make sense, so the matter of marrying a wife is still waiting."

It's really not easy to deal with, completely different from his mother's weak temperament, Bai Lianyang taught well, but didn't the whole family die in his hands in the end?Dealing with Zhou Gan is nothing more than spending some effort.

"Ganer, don't refuse, your brother's health is not very good, so the matter of marrying a wife can only be postponed, and you can't delay your wife's marriage. Besides, this is also my wish, you should bear it. Don't make it difficult for me." At the end, it was already a threatening tone.

Baigan also became tougher, "I don't need to bother the empress with my son's marriage. Maybe Erchen's mother concubine Yue Guifei is present, and my son will listen to it for now." Dare to do anything to him, that's why he dared to speak like this.

When she heard the words Yue Guifei, the queen asked coldly, "What do you mean?"

"The son and minister have no other intentions. It is just the words of the matchmaker ordered by the parents. The emperor did not mention this matter, and it is even more impossible for the mother and concubine to mention it. The empress naturally cannot interfere. Please forgive me."

The empress can't hear the words "Yue Guifei" the most. These three words are like shackles, which have locked her up for the rest of her life.

The queen had no choice but to swallow this breath, stood up and said: "In this case, then I will not interfere any more. I will delay here for too long. I still have something to do, so I will leave first."

Baigan sent the person to the door in person, "My son respectfully sends the queen off."

It seems that their mother and son need to be resolved as soon as possible. If the queen speaks a few more times in front of the emperor, then he will really be unable to hide from the imperial decree of engagement. I don't know how Feiying will do it?

Baigan came to the backyard and found Chen Xingzhou in the third room on the left. He was sleeping soundly on the table. He didn't hear him coming in. He must have been so exhausted during the journey that he could fall asleep lying on the table. , Baigan gently hugged him to the bed, covered him with the quilt, watched for a while, and then closed the door and left.
