The two ate and chatted, and before they knew it, it was night.

But fortunately, neither of them loves to drink, so they didn't make any drunk jokes.He went back to the palace without any risk, because Rong Yan specifically asked him to rest in the afternoon, but no one in the palace bothered him, so no one knew that the lawless little emperor had secretly left the palace.

No one in the palace knew about it, but someone outside the palace had their teeth crushed.

Wen Zheng received a secret letter from his subordinates, saying that General Chi took a young man to the Zhou family restaurant in the south of the city in a sneaky way.Wen Zheng rushed to the tavern, Zhou Bo was very happy to see him, "What a good day today, Mr. Wen, you are here too!"

"Could Mr. Chi come here today?" Wen Zheng asked straight to the point.

"It's true that Mr. Wen came here for Mr. Chi?" Zhou Bo asked.

"Yes."

"Unfortunately, they have already left."

"They? Who else is with Mr. Chi?"

"A flour-faced scholar, he looks young, his surname is 'Qi'."

Qi?There is no Qi family in Qingyang City.Wen Zheng thought for a while, "What does that person look like, and how does he compare to Mr. Chi?"

"It's excellent, the two are almost on par."

Wen Zheng understood who that person was.

Rong Yan.

How dare someone miss me!Wen Zheng gritted his teeth, and his eyes were gloomy, as if he wanted to cut that person into pieces.

Uncle Zhou wanted to ask Mr. Wen why he hadn't been here for so long, but seeing Wen Zheng's expression was terrifying, he didn't ask anything in the end, but just poured a cup of hot tea silently.

Wen Zheng didn't drink any tea, and left the south of the city angrily, heading straight for the imperial city.

Wen Zheng met with the Queen Mother overnight.Wen Wenting hadn't rested yet, and was very surprised to see her younger brother visiting late at night. "What's so urgent about King Wu Xuan, in such a hurry?"

Wen Zheng then told about Rong Yan leaving the palace privately.

"How could Yan'er do such nonsense!" Wen Wenting was really angry when she heard that, "Aijia, call that child over here."

"No, Empress Dowager, Yan'er is still young, so it's inevitable that he will play hard. If you tell the truth, it will not only embarrass him, but it will also be bad for his reputation if it is spread."

"King Wu Xuan means..."

"Since Yan'er's temperament is still uncertain, why don't you go to court first, listen to the government behind the curtain, and assist Yan'er for a while. After he gets married and his heart calms down, you can return to this harem to enjoy the happiness."

"No!" Wen Wenting never cared about the political affairs of the previous dynasty, and she panicked when she heard her younger brother say this, "The Ai family is not like the former queen, who cares about the national conditions and government affairs. Wouldn't it be a mistake to call the Ai family here!"

"Does my sister just want to watch Yan'er make mistakes step by step? Everyone says 'see the big from the small', Yan'er left the palace today and no one cares about him, and he will only make even more unforgivable big mistakes in the future!" Wen Zheng's voice and demeanor were stern, and Wen Wenting was flustered when she heard it.But she knows very well that the more impulsive she can be at this time.

"Zheng'er, it's not that my sister underestimated herself, it's just that you are aware of her situation. Yan'er's affairs can't be sloppy. If Zheng'er is really good for Yan'er, and my sister has a plan, I wonder if Zheng'er will be willing."

"Oh, what does sister want to do?" Wen Zheng knew that this sister was indecisive, and couldn't think of any ideas she could have.

"It's better to invite the national teacher to come forward and let Zheng'er be the regent for the time being. When Yan'er is sealed up and married, he will retire."

Wen Zheng opened his eyes wide in surprise, "Is sister serious?"

"Sister, if it wasn't for Yan'er's good, how could she have made such a bad plan. I just don't know where the national teacher is..."

"The national teacher has the Shangfang sword left by the former emperor in his hand. I am afraid that the national teacher will not agree to my sister's candidate."

"If the national teacher doesn't agree, isn't there still General Chi?" Wen Wenting said coolly, "The former emperor trusted these two people the most. In addition to Prime Minister Gu, the Ai family didn't believe it. How long can the national teacher be stubborn."

"I think my sister has already planned it." Wen Zheng said with a smile, "It's my younger brother who is worrying too much."

"Who said that Yan'er was not raised by her side since she was a child, after all, it is better to watch Zheng'er grow up to be more caring." Wen Wenting changed her face after speaking, and smiled softly.

With a satisfactory result, Wen Zheng left the palace contentedly.

After the next day, Wen Zheng stopped the national teacher and General Chi.

"National Teacher, General Chi, please stay! I have something to discuss with the Holy Majesty and the two of you."

"Oh, I don't know what King Wu Xuan is doing?" Chi Chong asked.

"We'll talk about it after seeing the Holy Majesty."

The three of them rushed to the Hall of Peaceful Peace, Rong Yan happened to have something to do and wanted to find the national teacher and Chi Zhong, seeing them were overjoyed, "What east wind brought the three of you here?"

Wen Zheng took a step forward, "Report to Your Majesty, the minister and the Queen Mother have important matters to report to each other."

"Oh, the Queen Mother is coming too?"

Before he finished speaking, he heard the message from the little eunuch, "The Empress Dowager is here!"

"The child greets the queen mother."

"See the Queen Mother."

"Let's all get flat." Wen Wenting thanked her, and walked straight to Rong Yan, "I haven't seen you for a few days, the emperor has lost weight again."

"Thank you mother for caring, the baby is doing well recently."

"It's really good, so good that I left the palace without telling everyone." Wen Wenting's expression changed instantly as she spoke, squinting her eyes and saying in displeasure.

"It turns out that the queen mother knows all about it." Rong Yan didn't want to hide it, and readily admitted it.

Chi Zhong and the national teacher looked at each other and didn't think it was a serious matter.

"Look at your attitude, not only did you not regret it, but you are actually quite proud!" Wen Wenting said sharply, intending to make matters worse.

"The empress dowager calm down." The national teacher and Chi Zhong said in unison.

"Yan'er hasn't raised this child by his side since he was a child, and he hasn't seen him for more than ten years. He has such an unruly temper. The Ai family thought that it would be better if he ascended the throne, but he didn't expect to be so stubborn!"

The national teacher and Chi Zhong listened, feeling a little uncomfortable.Although Rong Yan is not very diligent, he is definitely not the kind of person Wen Wenting said.

"It seems that just being enthroned can't make you realize the burden on your shoulders, you have to settle down after becoming a family." Wen Wenting changed the subject, "There is no one in the harem now, this is indeed the family's mourning Negligence. Once the three-year period is over, Aijia will start to help the emperor fill the harem. So now..."

The three looked at Wen Wenting suspiciously, and Wen Wenting smiled slightly.

"I also ask the three to nominate one person to manage the government on Yan'er's behalf."

The national teacher and Chi Zhong opened their eyes wide in shock, "The Queen Mother is serious?"

"There is absolutely no falsehood in mourning the family."

"The Holy Majesty did not make a big mistake, so it is not in accordance with the etiquette." The national teacher said.

"When he makes a big mistake, it will be too late. The late emperor left early, and the foundation of Ningguo is not stable, so we must not allow even the slightest mistake!" Wen Wenting said ferociously.

"The Queen Mother calm down!"

"Queen mother, calm down." Rong Yan also persuaded, "I think what the queen mother said is reasonable, I don't know the national teacher, General Chi and uncle, what do you think?"

"I have no objection." Wen Zheng said first.

The national teacher and Chi Zhong hesitated to speak for several times, and finally saluted, "Since the Holy Majesty thinks it should be so, I have no objection."

"Who do the three think this person is suitable for?" Seeing that the two of them were relieved, Wen Wenting hurriedly asked.

"Who does the queen mother think is suitable?" Rong Yan asked.

"The national division is busy with affairs, and General Chi is stationed in the border area all year round. In the opinion of Ai's family, although Zheng'er is young, he is perfect."

Rong Yan understood, nodded and said, "I think so too."

"Please think twice, Your Majesty!" Chi Zhong and the national teacher looked at each other in disbelief again, and both begged.

"Do you two have other suitable candidates?" Rong Yan asked.

"This..." Chi Zhong hesitated for a moment, "I want to report to the Holy Majesty, I just think that the matter of taking over the administration of the government can be discussed in a long-term way, and there is no rush."

"I agree with General Chi's opinion," said the national teacher.

"I think what my mother said is reasonable, but I just want to trouble uncle. I wonder if uncle is willing?" Rong Yan looked at Wen Zheng and asked.

"For the sake of the Holy Majesty and Ningguo, I will do my best."

"Since uncle has no objection, let's make a decision like this. I'm just drafting the decree. However, before I formally issue the decree, I have one more question to ask."

"What's the matter?" Wen Wenting asked nervously, for fear that Rong Yan would regret it.

"National Teacher, I heard from Little General Chi that my father ordered General Chi to go to the northwest with the army before his death. Is this true?"

Hearing Rong Yan mention Chi Qiuyi, Wen Zheng's eyes darkened.

"It's true." The national teacher said, "It's just that the first emperor just mentioned it casually at the beginning, and didn't make an order. The original words were 'If necessary, you can go with the autumn.'"

"In other words, if it's not necessary, General Chi won't go, right?" Rong Yan asked happily when he heard that things had turned around.

"This..." The national teacher looked at Chi Zhong, and Chi nodded, "That's true."

"Then, General Chi, why did you go to the northwest this time?"

"The main thing is to farm in spring and build fortifications." Chi Zhong replied.

"Does General Chi have to do these things?"

"This... there is no such statement."

"Then Chi Qiuyi won't go this time, what do the National Teacher and General Chi think?"

"Everyone who listens to the Holy One."

Rong Yan applauded, "In this way, the contest between General Chi and King Wuxuan will go smoothly. King Wuxuan won't suddenly regret it?" He looked at Wen Zheng and asked.

Wen Zheng was distracted, when he heard Rong Yan talking to him, he replied in a panic, "No, no."

"Then today's matter is successfully concluded, is the queen mother satisfied?" Rong Yan asked Wen Wenting with a smile.

Wen Wenting laughed awkwardly, "If the child is satisfied, the Ai family will be satisfied."

"In this case, please go back, everyone, I am tired."

"Wait a moment!" The national teacher hurriedly said, "I still have something to discuss with the Holy One."

"The national teacher will discuss with King Wuxuan in the future, I am tired today." Rong Yan was not interested in these messy things at all, and waved his hand.

"This matter can only be decided by the Holy One!" The national teacher was very firm.

For a moment, both Wen Wenting and Wen Zheng's complexions were not good.

Rong Yan said seriously, "What does the national teacher want to say?"

The national teacher looked at the others in embarrassment.

"Since the national teacher has something to do with the saint, then the minister will leave first." Wen Zheng was the first to react and said to leave.

"Have a good rest, baby, and Ai's family is leaving." Wen Wenting also left with Wen Zheng.

Chi Zhong looked at the national teacher, the national teacher shook his head, and Chi Zhong also resigned.

"National teacher, what exactly do you want to say?" Rong Yan was puzzled when there were only the two of them left in the room.

"My junior brother Qin Se, have you forgotten, Your Majesty?"
