Xie Xiang

Come out from the Xuanshi hall.Xie Yi walked in front, Li Wen said goodbye to Zong Zhengqing, rushed up, and said loudly, "Thank you for staying."

Xie Yi stopped at the sound and turned sideways to wait for him to catch up.Li Wen strode forward to Xie Yi's side, first said: "Where is Prime Minister Xie going?"

Xie Yi knew that he had something to say, so she said, "I'm going to the government office, if Ting Wei can drop by, you might as well go with me."

Li Wenzi also agreed, and the two walked and talked together.There were few pedestrians on the palace road, and once they walked out of the front hall, there were only palace guards passing by occasionally.

Li Wen looked around and saw that no one was listening, so he said, "Mr. Xie agreed, and is willing to be a witness, why are you blocking me?"

Since the defeat of Liangji, Li Wenshui has risen, and his reputation in the court has grown day by day.After these days, his ambitions swelled, and he couldn't help but want to go one step further, so he set his mind on the position of imperial husband.His majesty's middle palace is vacant, and his nephew and grandson are about the same age as his majesty, and they are a match for your majesty.

It was convenient for him to find Xie Yi three days ago, and he said bluntly that he wanted to tell His Majesty about a grandnephew in the family, and begged Xie Xiang to be an ice man to make a good marriage happen.

Xie Xiang resigned the iceman's invitation, but agreed to be a witness.Li Wen didn't force it either, and turned to look for Zong Zhengqing, and the three of them made an appointment to enter the palace today and bring up the matter with His Majesty.

Unexpectedly, before he got to the point, Xie Xiang interrupted him halfway, making it difficult for him to continue talking.

Li Wen couldn't help being displeased, but he didn't dare to be presumptuous when facing Xie Yi, and his words were still polite.

Xie Yi said apologetically, "I'm afraid I'm going to lose my trust, I can't bear witness for the public."

Li Wen was startled, and hurriedly asked: "Why did the prime minister break his promise?" The matter of the emperor's husband was brought up two years ago, but it was ignored at that time, but many people stared at it and turned back.Hearing Xie Yi's evasion, Li Wen couldn't help worrying about some twists and turns, and before Xie Yi could say anything, he probed, "Could it be that there are others who also have the same intentions, please entrust it to Prime Minister Xie?"

Xie Yi said: "That's not the case."

Li Wen was not happy but worried, hesitantly said: "The young man of the Jun family is also of marriageable age, I heard that he is not yet married?"

This is Xie Wen.

Xie Yi's eyes lightened, she shook her head and said, "Mr. Xie has no such intentions."

Li Wen heard that he didn't come to compete with him to be a relative, but he was relieved, and then smiled: "Since that's the case, why didn't Prime Minister Xie refuse to testify for the subordinate?"

His tone was relaxed, but he also grasped the speed in it, which sounded like teasing rather than questioning.

Xie Yi knew it was over, and seeing that the government office was approaching, she simply said goodbye to him, and the two parted ways.

She shirked it, but the matter still persisted, Li Wen found another man of high morals and high prestige in the blink of an eye, and went to the palace to marry the emperor.

Marriage matters should not be discussed directly with her, but His Majesty lost his parents at a young age, and there is no elder in the clan who can make decisions for her.There is a grandmother, who is very close, but it is a pity that they have two surnames again.

Li Wen thought about it, there can always be exceptions in the matters of the emperor, not to mention that His Majesty has always had his own opinions, so it is all right to speak directly to the emperor.

Liu Zao was also prepared, as she reached her age, this matter was unavoidable, and she also prepared a speech, and she was not in a hurry when asked about it.However, it is embarrassing for Li Wenqin to propose marriage for his nephew and grandson.As usual, when talking about marriage, if one party refuses, they have to find a reason.Liu Zao didn't know much about this, so he ordered everyone to retreat, Shan and Li Wen said, "It's not that the young man of the Qing family is bad, but I don't have the heart for the time being."

Li Wen couldn't help being anxious, and said sincerely, "I know that I want to be worthy of Your Majesty, it is indeed a high praise." He praised the emperor very earnestly, and said good things for his nephew and grandson to show his sincerity, after thinking about it, he added: "Xie Xiang also thought that my nephew and nephew could match His Majesty."

Liu Zaoyuan was thinking about how to decline, Li Wen is the emperor's teacher after all, and he has done a lot of credit for her, she can't chill the heart of a good minister.After hearing that he said that Xie Yi also thought they were a good match, Liu Zao fell silent instantly.

Li Wen didn't understand, so after waiting for a while, Fang Xin asked, "What do you think, Your Majesty?"

After he said this, the emperor seemed to be awakened suddenly, came back to his senses, and asked softly: "Xie Quezhen really said that?"

Xie Xiang didn't say it, but Li Wen thought about it, since Xie Xiang had promised to be a witness, it can be seen that he was happy to see it, so he said: "Exactly"

Liu Zao said, "Let me think about it."

Li Wen suddenly felt that something was wrong, and couldn't grasp the key point for a while.However, the little emperor smiled, the smile was very raw, and he said again: "Let me think about it."

Li Wen was overjoyed, so he didn't care what was wrong, and quickly bowed down to salute and thank you for your kindness.

After Li Wen withdrew, Liu Zao sat in the hall for a long time, his mind was in a mess, as if he had many things to think about, but he didn't know where to think of them, and it became a mess.

Until dusk, she sat so stiff that she stood up and walked out slowly, wanting to calm down.

She walked aimlessly all the way to the outside of the Jiaofang hall.

Because of thinking about Xie Xiang, the Jiaofang Hall has been repaired once, and it is new inside and out.Liu Zao stopped and looked up at the palace.The palace is grand and the lintel is noble, entrusting her endless thoughts.

Her heart suddenly became clear.

She wants to ask Xie Xiang to understand.

She knows how Xie Xiang is.She has always been beautiful and beautiful, and treats her very gently.Over the past year, even if she deliberately avoided and turned a blind eye to her, she never blamed anything.How could such a person stab her heart with words that she was worthy of others?

But Li Wen was so determined.

There must be something wrong.

Liu Zao was determined to ask Xie Yi personally.

The relationship between them has always been clear, although there are scars, there is no misunderstanding.If this matter is not clarified, it will become a knot in her heart.

Liu Zao thought her intentions were open and frank, and Xie Xiang was not a cover-up, so if she had any doubts, she asked to clarify.Liu Zao returned to the proclamation room, raised his voice to order the people in the palace to come forward, and said: "Call the prime minister into the palace quickly."

When Xie Yi came, Liu Zao was a little anxious waiting, and asked her anxiously, do you really want her to marry someone else?

However, once Xie Yi arrived, Liu Zao was speechless again, not knowing how to speak.

Xie Yi saluted, looked towards her, and said, "I don't know why His Majesty summoned you?"

Her eyes are as bright as the moonlight, but also extremely deep, Liu Zao's heart is boiling hot just by her glance.She pursed her lips, put her tone indifferently, and said, "Prime Minister, sit down."

A eunuch came forward and set up a seat under the throne.Xie Yi thanked her, stepped forward and sat down.

Her sitting posture is also good-looking, gentle and quiet, without losing the aloofness of a person in a high position. Liu Zao glanced at her, then slightly moved her eyes away, not daring to look again.She was afraid of taking another look, but she couldn't restrain the nostalgia in her heart.

"Is there any progress on the restoration of Liehou's family as mentioned earlier?" Liu Zao asked.

Xie Yi replied: "Taichang has already sent the list to the minister. I will go back today and screen again. It will be presented to His Majesty's desk at the latest the day after tomorrow."

Liu Zao couldn't help revealing the annoyance in his eyes.This matter was brought up five days ago, and it took five days to sort it out before getting the list, but Prime Minister Xie promised to present it to her the day after tomorrow, so he must have stayed up all night.Mr. Xie was very concerned about her matter, and if she mentioned it, Mr. Xie would definitely drive her out as soon as possible.

While Liu Zao blamed herself, she couldn't help but think that such a good person is not hers, and such a good person has never had any affection for her.

"There's no need to worry." Liu Zao said.

Xie Yi heard the words, and said: "If your Majesty has someone who takes special care of you, you can also order it."

She summoned her to thank her for the matter of the emperor's husband, but she dared not ask.

Nianyu never saw her alone, never said a word, but for this matter, she hurriedly summoned her, as if she hadn't let go yet.Liu Zao suddenly felt remorseful, thinking that he couldn't hold his breath.

She wanted to make amends, so she started talking about other things, since Xie Yi mentioned the person who took special care of her, Liu Zao said a few things along the way.It is a major event for Liehou to return to his family, and she has carefully considered it, but there are really a few families who want to be promoted.

Xie Yi listened carefully, and when Liu Zao finished speaking, she nodded and said, "These families are indeed of great use, and I have the same thoughts as Your Majesty."

When Liu Zao heard this sentence, the minister also had the same thoughts as His Majesty, and felt extremely sweet in his heart, and couldn't help slowing down the deliberate indifference on his face, and said: "Thank you, sir, I will put a few families in the first class."

Xie Yi said, "No."

That's the end of the matter.Liu Zaozhi ordered Xie Xiang to retreat, but he was very unwilling.This reluctance is inherently unwilling to ask to understand, but more, it is because she is not willing to thank Xiang and leave her eyes, she wants to stay with her for a while.

this is not right.Liu Zao said to himself.She became ruthless and was about to make Xie Yi retreat, but Xie Yi took the initiative to speak: "A few days ago, Ting Wei came to find a minister, and mentioned the matter of marriage with the emperor, and the minister is an ice man..."

Liu Zao's heart twitched fiercely, and she looked at Xie Yi without saying a word.Xie Yi's voice came unhurriedly: "The minister has not agreed." Slowly relaxing his heart, Liu Zao forcefully said, "Ting Wei has already proposed marriage to me."

Xie Yi's expression did not change, Ting Wei invited Zong Zheng and another minister into the palace, she knew about it, so she also knew that His Majesty summoned her, probably for this reason.She couldn't bear it in her heart, so her voice softened: "Your Majesty should be careful about marriage matters."

Liu Zao asked, "How can we be cautious?"

Xie Yi couldn't speak anymore.Do it carefully, naturally do whatever you want.Your Majesty's throne is stable, and there is no need for marriage to consolidate the throne.In matters of marriage, you can relax a bit and choose the person you like as the middle palace.

However, the person His Majesty loves is her.

That day I agreed to Li Wen as a witness, not because I wanted to speak out for Li Wen, but because His Majesty was young, and it was inevitable that he would be thin-skinned when talking about marriage. She was by the side, so she could help speak for His Majesty .

However, when he arrived in the palace, he met His Majesty, and saw the faint tiredness between her brows, and her restraint, not looking her way.She knew she was negligent.With her present, even without saying a word, His Majesty will definitely feel tormented.

Right now, she asked her, how to be cautious.

Xie Yi remained silent.Liu Zao was a little disappointed, but felt it made sense, and asked again: "Tingwei said, Prime Minister Xie once said that I and his young man are very suitable, did Prime Minister Xie say that?"

Xie Yi showed surprise.

Seeing this, Liu Zao knew she hadn't said it.After a day of confusion, calm down.She smiled lightly and said: "I have agreed to Ting Wei, so I can think about it."
