yes sire

Chapter 53 Suspension

Too many things happened one after another, Xia Siyan was worried that Han You would go back, and insisted on letting him stay overnight.

It's just that they both had things in their hearts, and when it was time to go to bed, no one seemed to have that kind of thought, so they each lay down after receiving a not-so-sexy kiss.

Hearing Han You's breathing, Xia Siyan knew that he was not asleep, and the surroundings were very quiet, just like the last night before the storm.

After getting scared at first, Xia Siyan's heart pounded in his chest, and when he closed his eyes, he recalled the scene of Han You pulling his fingers out of his palm one by one.In fact, he didn't really see that scene, but he felt it was very clear. He could even see clearly how Han You's fingers turned white from being pinched by him, and how hard he pulled his joints when he pulled them out.The emptied palm and the emptied heart gave out a dull pain, which made it difficult for him to breathe.

Xia Siyan knew very well that if the imperial concubine really hanged herself today, Han You would never set foot in Changle Palace again.He never hoped that the imperial concubine would live a long life like today.

"Sir." After all, he couldn't help turning over and hugging Han You's waist, buried his head in his neck, and was so wronged that he was about to cry, "Will sir leave me because of this kind of thing?"

Han You kissed the top of his hair and said softly, "Go to sleep."

"Will it be?" Xia Siyan asked stubbornly.

Han You didn't answer.

Xia Siyan arched his neck and said sullenly, "If you can, then I'll kill them all."

"You are not a tyrant, Your Majesty." Han You inserted his fingers into Xia Siyan's hair and stroked it gently, "You will be the best emperor in the history of Zhao Kingdom."

"If you don't look at me, I'll be a tyrant."

Han You sighed softly, "I have taught you for ten years, if you are not a good emperor, I will be responsible."

Xia Siyan was silent for a while, "Han Jinglue, I heard that people closest to you stab the knife the hardest, because you know where the pain is the most. You stab each time very accurately."

"Go to sleep," Han You also turned around and hugged Xia Siyan, "I'll go to the cabinet early tomorrow."

"You don't want to go tomorrow."

"The more it is like this, the more I have to stand up. Why should I have a guilty conscience?"

"I don't want you to be upset by those rumors."

"There's nothing to be unhappy about." Han You closed his eyes, "If I can't even bear this, I won't be able to walk by His Majesty's side."

"Do you need me to coax you?"

"No need." Han You's voice was very low, as if it came from his chest.

Xia Siyan pressed his ear against his chest and listened to his heartbeat beating against his ears. He didn't fall asleep with his arms around Han You until their heartbeat frequency was the same.

The next day Han You arrived at the cabinet very early, only to find that several other cabinet ministers were earlier than him, and everyone was standing at the door of his office waiting for him to give an explanation.

"I didn't." This was the first sentence Han You said when he saw them.

Wu Wenci believed in Han You in this regard, so he just asked him, "What's going on? How did the Empress Dowager get involved? What did your majesty say?"

"Your Majesty naturally believes me," Han You opened the door and asked them to sit in, because Wu Shijie's name was written on the list of suspects the night before, and people who dawned today should go to investigate the Wu Mansion, Han You was a little afraid Looking into the teacher's eyes, "It should be that the official camp has offended some people, and they want to force me to leave."

Zhan Yu said: "The Sixth Division has always been at odds with our cabinet, and it's been an old problem for many years. Those people have to beat the Dengwen drum from time to time, otherwise they will appear to be unimportant. Don't pay too much attention to it. As long as His Majesty believes in you, there is nothing to worry about."

That is to say, but several cabinet ministers know that things will not be so simple.When the fake is true, the real is also fake. The more speculative things are, the more unclear they are.

At noon, the Secretary of General Administration sent over a large pile of papers, all of which were impeachment of Han You.Not only impeached him for having an affair with the concubine, but also impeached him out of thin air for having sex with prostitutes and raising singers privately.

Han You didn't know whether to laugh or cry, the fact that he raised a singing girl privately meant that he raised a Yunniang in his house, but what about sex with prostitutes, he had never even been to a brothel.

These notebooks all have a common feature, that is, none of the crimes that require actual evidence, and some of them are all things that cannot be found, and they can do what they say with just a word.What's more, things like raising a singer privately are not a problem at all.The only thing that actually hurt him was the affair with the Empress Dowager. If this rumor was not broken, it would indeed make it difficult for him to stay in Beijing.

According to the Zhao Kingdom tradition, if an official is impeached a large number of times in a short period of time, he or she will be suspended from office.Seeing that the booklets piled up more and more, Han You had almost reached the "large amount" standard, so he packed up his belongings, told a few courtiers to leave, and left the palace to return home.

Scarlet rumors with ambiguous words always spread very quickly. In just a few hours, this matter has become well known in Beijing.Han San also heard about this, and his heart was in a mess.He didn't know about government affairs, he only said that Mr. was harmed by others, and he sulked at home.Hearing Han You's return, he rushed to meet him, only to find that there were a few more guards around Han You.

The guards seemed to have been with the emperor before, and two of them had had breakfast in the Han residence, and Han San looked familiar.

Han You entered the door and handed him the things on his handle, and smiled comfortingly: "I can rest for a while."

Han San took it with both hands, observed his expression carefully, and saw that his expression was as calm as usual, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and asked softly, "Do you know who did this, sir?"

Han You shook his head, "Still checking. I'll go change my clothes first, and you make a pot of tea for me and send it to the flower hall."

"it is good."

Although it is already the middle of winter, the weather is not so cold.At this time in previous years, the first snowfall had already fallen in the capital, but this year there was no sign of snow at all.

There is no need to burn a stove to keep warm, and only a six-fold wood carving screen is erected in the flower hall to keep out the wind.

Han You changed into the moon-white lake silk gown at home, and sat down at the small square table behind the screen.

Han San sat opposite him, with unconcealable anxiety on his face: "What should we do now?"

Han You poured himself a cup of tea, held it under the tip of his nose and sniffed it lightly, and said, "Wait."

"Wait for what?"

"They did this just to drive me away. The more secure I am in Beijing, the more anxious they will be. So it's best to do nothing at this time. Wait until you find out who is behind the scenes. Find a way to dispel this rumor."

Han You couldn't explain clearly to Han San that the matter involved the power of the major families in Beijing, conflicts of interest in setting up official camps, and political planning to support new officials.

Han San frowned and thought for a while, "Could this matter have anything to do with your affairs with His Majesty?"

Han You put the tea cup back on the table, "It can be said that it is related, or it can be said that it is not related. It is because His Majesty met me outside the palace earlier, and someone in the court saw it, so there was me and a dancer in the palace. Ji Youran's rumor, this rumor just left room for speculation on this matter. It doesn't matter because the other party doesn't know about me and His Majesty, otherwise they wouldn't have to involve the Empress Dowager."

"Is the imperial concubine tall?"

"Not high."

"Then," Han San didn't understand, "Your Majesty is also very tall dressed as a woman. Since the gentleman said that some officials in the court have seen it, don't they know that it can't be the Empress Dowager?"

"After all, there are only a few who have seen it, but the rumor has spread widely. What's more, the reason why rumors are rumors is precisely because people only believe what they want to believe."

"Your Majesty, too," Han San said with a bit of complaint unconsciously in his tone, "Go out of the palace as soon as you leave the palace, and what kind of veil do you wear to pretend to be a woman, which makes you flirtatious! It's not a big deal to go out in normal clothes Are they all gone? Where can I go to clarify now?"

Han You lost his mind at this time, he suddenly realized that every time the emperor came to him dressed like that, maybe he just wanted to walk hand in hand with him in the crowd, just like ordinary people.

Xia Siyan was secretly using various methods to make him forget the estrangement between them.Think about it carefully, since when did he stop using honorific words to the emperor, stop kneeling when meeting each other, and stop choosing his words carefully.First I got used to this way of getting along, and then I got used to each other's bodies. Now when I think of Xia Siyan in my heart, the first thing I think is that it is my lover, and then the emperor of Zhao Kingdom.

Surprised by this, Han You's scalp tingles.

It was as if they were stepping on both ends of a tightrope while walking towards the middle, and they finally embraced at the most dangerous place.Now he can neither move away nor turn back, and the precarious balance is waiting for a mistake to break, causing him to fall heavily.

The south wind knows what I mean

The matter of the imperial concubine was a warning, let him rehearse his mood when his relationship with the emperor was revealed.At that time, would he still be calm like this, and would he still be in the mood to sit in the flower hall and drink a cup of Miyunlong?

He was also asking himself the question that Xia Siyan asked him last night—Han Jinglue, would you leave Xia Siyan because of this kind of thing?

He once thought that this question was easy to answer. He originally planned to be with Xia Siyan with the intention of leaving Xia Siyan one day, but now this question has become difficult.

As a courtier of the Zhao Kingdom, Han You would leave without hesitation. In order to preserve the reputation of the emperor and his unfulfilled wishes, Han You would become a feudal official and bury his political ideas in the country of Zhao Kingdom like sowing seeds.And the Han You who likes Xia Siyan is weak and worthless, he is reluctant to leave.

Seeing that he was stunned for a while without answering, Han San called him softly, "Sir?"

"Huh?" Han You managed to pull back his thoughts, "What?"

"I said..." Han San suddenly noticed that Han You's eyes were a little red, not the pupils were red, but the eyes were red with tears. He stopped talking, reached out to touch the teapot, and changed his words: "The tea is cold, I'll go change it." The pot is hot."

Han You responded, and looked in the direction of the palace, only to see the dazzling white sky above the courtyard.I don't know what Xia Siyan is doing at this time.When Han You left in the morning, he was anxious and didn't kiss him.

Now that I regret it, I should kiss him, hug him, and coax him before leaving.
