Xie Xiang

Liu Zao said this to deceive the Queen Mother, she couldn't let Xie Yi be used as a handle, and let the Queen Mother tease and restrain her.However, just as the word "plaything" came out of her mouth, a picture appeared in Liu Zao's mind.

Xie Xiang was lying on her dragon bed in disheveled clothes, his face was flushed and charming, his eyes were full of tears and he was unyielding. He wanted to resist but was helpless, so he could only let her play with her.

Liu Zao suddenly felt excited, and his fingertips felt hot and trembling.She raised her sleeves, covered her hands under the sleeves, and looked at the queen mother calmly.

The Empress Dowager was almost pissed off by her. A few months ago, the Emperor was still shy and at a loss when he was interested in Xie Yi. How long has it been since he changed his mind?

"So it turns out that His Majesty wants to thank you just to humiliate her?"

Liu Zao smiled: "Different gameplays have different interests, so why talk about humiliation?"

She said it easily, the smile only floated on her lips, but her eyes were as calm as water, without fluctuations, as if Xie Yi was really just a dispensable plaything to her.

The Empress Dowager's eyes darkened: "So, with regard to the imperial husband, is Your Majesty really unwilling to give in?"

Liu Zao met her gaze, and said calmly: "Whether I give in or not, it depends on Liang Cheqi's sincerity."

The Empress Dowager finally showed her anger, but Liu Zao was secretly happy, her anger meant that her steps were chaotic, only when she was chaotic, could she benefit from her and take advantage of the situation to expand the power of the imperial party.

Unexpectedly, after only a moment, the Empress Dowager put away her anger and said with a smile: "Duplicity is not a good habit. What is Your Majesty thinking about Xie Xiang, Your Majesty knows it well, why bother to lie to me with some powerful words?"

She didn't believe it, and Liu Zao was not surprised, if she said a few words, the Queen Mother would believe it, and she would be suspicious instead.Liu Zao's posture was leisurely, and his tone was very casual: "What do I think about Xie Xiangneng? Is it reasonable to compose a song of Guanju with her? The queen mother is too small for me."

The Queen Mother frowned.

Liu Zao said again: "Xie Yi ran rampant in the court and bullied the emperor with arrogance. I have hated him for a long time. I wanted to get rid of it long ago and then quickly. If it wasn't for..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Hu Ao's trembling voice came from outside the door: "Your Majesty, the prime minister begs to see you."

Liu Zao bit her tongue all at once, the queen mother glanced at her with arrogance, and said loudly: "Xuan."

Hu Ao's voice outside can be heard in the palace, so the emperor's words in the palace can also be heard outside.When the empress dowager talked with the emperor, she didn't lower her voice, because there were confidantes outside the palace, she would definitely push back irrelevant palace people.But Xie Yi, if she wants to come, no one can stop her.

The door of the main hall was pushed open, and the sunlight entered the hall, Liu Zao suddenly felt dazzling, and his eyes narrowed involuntarily.Xie Yi calmly stepped over the threshold and came into the hall. She stood on the hall, raised her sleeves with the two of them, and said, "Empress Dowager, Your Majesty."

The queen mother said: "Why do you want to see Mrs. Xie?"

Liu Zao knew that she must have listened to the words just now, otherwise Hu Ao wouldn't have trembled in his voice when he announced, but he didn't know how much she had listened to.She looked at Xie Yi, but saw Xie Yi's expression was calm, as usual.Sensing her gaze, Xie Yi also looked over, just glanced at her, then turned to face the Queen Mother.

This glance was so fast that Liu Zao couldn't even distinguish the emotion in her eyes.

"There is something I want to report to Your Majesty. The Empress Dowager is here, and I think the matter I want to report is the same." Xie Yi's voice was cold and calm, which made Liu Zao's heart ache.

However, the queen mother is here, if she panics, all previous efforts will be wasted.She tried her best to hold back her panic, and said calmly: "Set up a seat for the prime minister."

Hu Ao entered the hall with his head bowed, and quickly set up a seat under the emperor.

Xie Yi walked over and sat down on the table.

After the Queen Mother waited for her to sit down, Fang continued, "The Grand Tutor also came here for the imperial husband's business?"

"My nephew Xie Wen, the second-grandson of the great general, the eldest grandson of the imperial censor, and the youngest son in the family of the censor, are all handsome and handsome, worthy of your majesty. The matter of the emperor's husband has been discussed for a long time. According to my opinion, it is better to make an early decision." Next." Xie Yi said.

When she heard that the Empress Dowager came to Weiyang Palace, she knew that she must have come here for this matter, and came here in a hurry to help His Majesty fulfill his wish.Who would have heard His Majesty's resentment towards her outside the hall.

Xie Yi didn't go to see Liu Zao, but said the words that he had thought up early in the morning.

The weight of her words is different from that of the emperor.The Empress Dowager couldn't hold back her smile immediately, and said coldly: "There is no need to be so anxious, it will be fine in a few years."

The few people Xie Yi mentioned were all her followers.There are only so many positions of power in the court, and the new relatives would have divided the Liang family's authority, if they came from Xie Yi's sect, they would have bitten off a piece of Liang's body.

Xie Yi turned to look at Liu Zao: "What do you think, Your Majesty?"

Liu Zao's heart trembled, and he said in a steady tone: "I think this matter should be urgent, but I am not limited to the people mentioned by the Taifu. Ting Wei's nephew, Wen Bi Song Yu, is talented, and he can also be elected."

Ting Wei Li Wen is an imperial party on the bright side, Liu Zao mentions him, and if he falls into the eyes of the Queen Mother, he is fighting for himself.

The three have clear positions and act independently.Liu Zao and Xie Yi had already reached an agreement on the matter of establishing an imperial concubine early.As soon as Xie Yi arrived, the empress dowager, who was still in the upper hand, immediately retreated steadily.She turned her gaze between the two of them, feeling extremely annoyed in her heart.

"The position in the middle palace is related to the country, and it needs to be discussed by the courtiers before making a decision."

Saying this again, it is a strong external force.

Xie Yi said, "It's only natural."

She spoke lightly and didn't care.The queen mother immediately understood that she had to back down.

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Xie Yi didn't want to stay here for a long time, so he stood up and said, "The court will be in three days' time, why don't you discuss it with the court at that time." After finishing speaking, she saluted and turned around to leave.

She came suddenly and left in a hurry.Liu Zao felt that Xie Xiang came this trip, as if he came here just to support her.The Empress Dowager was a bit suspicious, thinking that Xie Yi was using the little emperor's hand to squeeze her out of this dispute, and when the queen's wife was elected, the little emperor was no match for her, he must be one of her party members.

Instead of making Xie Xiang powerful, it is better to temporarily enrich the emperor's wings.

The Queen Mother waited for Xie Yi to leave, and then said: "How can it be considered sincerity, Your Majesty might as well say it frankly."

Liu Zao got his wish.The dispute between the imperial husbands in the past few days ended with the empress dowager giving way.

It was a small victory, but Liu Zao was not happy at all.Seeing this, the Empress Dowager also thought of what she had said in Xie Yi's ears, and she smiled sweetly: "Teacher Xie must be more vigilant when treating His Majesty. Your Majesty must be careful of your own safety."

Liu Zao's mood fluctuated towards Xie Yi, but he was very calm towards her, and said calmly: "The heart of a rebellious minister is inherently sinister, and it doesn't make much difference if you listen to this sentence more."

The Queen Mother nodded: "It's good that Your Majesty knows." After saying that, let's go.

As soon as she left, Liu Zao immediately summoned Hu Ao to ask, "When did Prime Minister Xie come?"

Hu Ao said with a bitter face: "When Your Majesty said the last sentence, Mr. Xie Fang came, and he just heard that sentence in his ears."

Liu Zao sat paralyzed on the couch, she couldn't help but recall Xie Yi's figure when he entered the palace, coming with the light, but with a sense of bleak coldness.She heard it, and how she looked at her.

They also get along well on weekdays, such as bandaging her wounds, such as sitting in silence relative to each other. After listening to her words, how would Mr. Xie treat those times, whether he thought she was sweet-talking, slick, and always thinking of plotting against her.

In fact, the two of them, one is the young emperor and the other is the minister of power, it is normal for them to plot against each other.But Liu Zao just felt that this should not be the case, not to mention the delusion in her heart, even Xie Xiang treated her very differently.Others don't know, but she can feel it when she is in it.

Thank you for treating her with no warmth.

Liu Zao panicked badly.She sat paralyzed in the palace for a while, then suddenly remembered something, got up and said: "I want to leave the palace."

It's still early, she is leaving the palace right now, just in time for Xie Xiangxia to go back to the mansion.She wants to explain to Xie Xiang.

After Liu Zao finished speaking, he hurried to change clothes, took people with him, and went out of the palace.

Liu Zao hasn't been to Shangguanli for a few days.But she has an excellent memory, the last time she came with Xie Yi once, she remembered the way.Along the way, Liu Zao didn't bother to observe the scenery on both sides carefully, clamped the horse tightly, and swung his whip repeatedly.Hu Ao also knew that His Majesty was impatient, so he didn't dare to go forward to persuade him, but only looked at the servants and followed His Majesty closely.

The Prime Minister's Mansion is still magnificent, and because of Xie Yi's title of Grand Tutor, it even adds a bit of dignity.The towering lintel is becoming more and more unattainable, making people afraid to go to the door.

Liu Zao went to the door and got off his horse. Hu Ao hurriedly went up to inquire with the door. Xie Xiangke went back to his house.

Seeing this group of people, they were well dressed and elegantly behaved, especially the little man in the middle, who looked familiar, so he didn't dare to be rude, so he asked nicely, "May I ask the little man's name?"

Liu Zao was silent for a moment, recalling the alias Xie Yi gave her last time, said, "Liu Meng."

The surname is Liu, and he has a kind face, and his door is very winking. He replied truthfully: "Your Majesty has not yet returned to the mansion. If you want to come to the door, Mr. Xiaolang, you might as well leave a name stab."

Liu Zao was taken aback, she came early.Hu Ao said in a low voice: "Mr. Lang, it's better to enter the prime minister's residence first."

Liu Zao shook her head: "I'm waiting for her here." She was very flustered, fearing that Xie Xiang would be even more alienated from her because of this.As long as you don't see anyone, it's the same wherever you wait.

About half an hour later, the sky was dark and autumn was thick, and Prime Minister Che Yuanfang appeared late.Liu Zao took a deep breath, waited for the car to stop in front of the door, and waited for Xie Yi to get off the car.

Sitting in the car, Xie Yi saw the thin figure in front of her house, and sighed softly in her heart, not knowing what it was like.When she got out of the car and came to Liu Zao, she saw that she was dressed in thin clothes, standing in the thick autumn atmosphere, she habitually felt distressed first, pressed down all the words, led her to the door, and pointed at her specifically, with the door Said: "This little man will come to the door in the future, don't ask me, let her go first."

Liu Zao's heart seemed to be blocked by a boulder, and he murmured: "Thank you, Mr...."

Xie Yi bent her lips: "Let Your Majesty wait for a long time, and I will die."

Liu Zao opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

Xie Yi brought her into the mansion, and went straight to the study, Liu Zao followed her, feeling very upset along the way.She also thought about how to explain to Xie Xiang when she came, but at this moment, all the decent words seemed to have disappeared, and she couldn't remember a single word.

Xie Yi glanced at her hand, the wound on the palm had healed, leaving a scar, which was a little white from the autumn wind.Xie Yi ordered some warm soup to be brought, watched Liu Zao drink it, and warmed his mind, Fang said: "That day, Your Majesty said that if a subject is defeated, there will be a place for a subject in the Jiaofang Hall. The room is for fun, for teasing purposes, but it is also regarded as His Majesty's promise to keep the life of the ministers."

Listening to her calm and slow words, Liu Zao's heart suddenly tightened.

Xie Yi paused for a moment, looked at Liu Zao, and smiled softly, "Who knows, in His Majesty's heart, he wants to get rid of the subject and then be quick."
