After being released from prison, the King of Zhenxi asked me to give birth to cubs for him!

Chapter 263 The Surface Peace

The emperor has always been a peacemaker.

He watched coldly as the people headed by Zhou Yongxu and Ye Guichen quarreled for a long time in the court, but neither party blamed them in the end.

The emperor first praised Ye Guichen a few words: "The king of Zhenxi has indeed discussed with me a long time ago about the deployment of the defense map, and I also agree."

The emperor is not in good health, and he was a little out of breath when he said a word, and his tone was slower: "Considering that this matter needs to be carried out in secret, so I didn't tell everyone, this matter was arranged very carefully by King Zhenxi, it's a pity that something went wrong Unexpectedly, the failure of the plan cannot be blamed on King Zhenxi..."

After praising Ye Guichen, the emperor looked at Zhou Yongxu again and said: "You are indeed acting recklessly, but considering that you are also acting in the interest of the imperial court, let's fine you one month's salary."

Naturally, some people would be dissatisfied with such a gentle handling, but once the emperor's words came out, no one dared to say anything more.

Zhou Yongxu was very happy, and kowtowed to thank: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

This matter just passed away, and the emperor also ordered everyone not to mention this matter in the future.

Morning passed quickly.

After the court was over, all the ministers walked out of the hall in groups of three or four.

As soon as Ye Guichen took two steps with the crowd, a young eunuch walked over and whispered something in his ear.

Ye Guichen nodded slightly, looked at the leaving crowd, and stood there for a while.

It wasn't until the last group of ministers left the hall that Ye Guichen followed the little eunuch back.

The little eunuch led the way, and the road became more and more remote, avoiding countless patrolling guards and little maids, and came to a very secluded small courtyard.

The little eunuch pushed open the door, stood at the door without going in, and said softly to Ye Guichen, "Your Highness is inside, please come in, my lord."

Ye Guichen raised his legs and entered the yard.

The begonias in the yard were in full bloom, and Ye Guichen walked in with the fragrance of the flowers, and saw a figure within two steps.

The other party was sitting in the gazebo with his back to him, with two cups of steaming tea in front of him.

Ye Guichen paused for a moment, walked into the gazebo, and called out calmly, "His Royal Highness."

The prince looked up at him, raised his chin slightly, and signaled: "My lord, you are here, please sit down."

"This is the newly presented Yuqian Dragon Well, my lord, try it?"

Ye Guichen walked over and sat down, without beating around the bush, and asked directly: "The prince asked me to come here on purpose. Could it be as simple as simply inviting me to drink tea?"

The prince chuckled lightly, and said leisurely: "My lord really hasn't changed at all, he's a quick tempered person, and I have nothing important to do, I just want to chat with my lord about what happened in court today."

Although he smiled warmly and harmoniously, his eyes revealed a chilling silence, and the aura around him was extremely cold.

But when he looked at Ye Guichen, he could clearly see the dependence on him in the prince's eyes, and his attitude softened a bit, "The prince used a fake defense map to attract the people behind the second prince. This trick is really beautiful !"

It turns out that the use of the deployment map this time is not just to lure out the people behind Cheng Niang, but more importantly, it is the strife between the princelings and the princelings.

The person behind Chengniang appears to be Zhou Yongxu on the surface, but in fact there is someone else, and this person is the second prince whom Zhou Yongxu serves.

The second prince wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of Ye Guichen this time, thinking that he would be able to unplug the prince's greatest support, but he didn't know that this was a trap set by Ye Guichen from the beginning.

Ye Guichen was afraid that the crown prince would be too complacent, so he reminded him: "Your Highness must always be cautious in the future, there is nothing to be happy about this matter."

He immediately poured cold water on the crown prince, regardless of whether the crown prince was happy or not, and said directly: "Even if we know who are on the side of Zhou Yongxu and the second prince, it is useless. The emperor will not punish them." .”

The prince also understood the deep meaning, although he was a little disappointed, he quickly calmed down, and sighed helplessly: "Actually, the most important thing about this matter is the attitude of the father, but the father didn't say anything, so it's very subtle. "

Ye Guichen nodded slightly, and said softly: "The emperor's mind is actually not hard to guess, he doesn't favor any side, he just wants to maintain the balance and stability on the surface."

Hearing this, a very obvious disdain flashed in the eyes of the prince, and he snorted and said: "How long can the superficial peace last under the premise of turbulent internal struggle?"

He lowered his eyes and laughed self-deprecatingly: "Father is still old and can't stand the toss. He just wants to have fun with his family and someone to support him, but he was born in the royal family, how can he be like an ordinary family."

Ye Guichen naturally understood this, but he couldn't comment on the emperor's thoughts.

On the contrary, the crown prince seemed to trust Ye Guichen very much, and said without any reservations in front of him: "Father is not clear about his attitude, and the fight will only become more severe in the future. The storm in the court is coming soon."

Ye Guichen fell silent.

This upward wind and rain has never stopped.

The prince probably also knew that it would be inappropriate to continue the chat, so he changed the subject with a smile: "My lord is newly married, and I have no time to spend alone, so I just sent someone to send a congratulatory gift. Is everything going well?"

Hearing this, Ye Guichen's face became even more embarrassing, he lowered his head and smiled bitterly, his voice hoarse: "It's pretty good."

Looking at him like this, it's obviously not very good.

The prince didn't want to ask any more questions, and said wittily: "My lord is also tired these days, so I won't leave you alone, go back and rest early."

Ye Guichen nodded slightly, got up and went back.

It wasn't until Ye Guichen walked out of the yard that the prince slowly raised his hand and poured out the completely cold cup of tea opposite him.

Ye Guichen was conferred the title of king with a different surname because of his ancestral meritorious service. The most important thing is that he holds military power.

The prince was extremely fortunate that Ye Guichen, who was so smart and capable, chose to stand by his side.

If Ye Guichen turned around to support the second prince, it would be even more difficult for him, the prince, to walk in the court.

Ye Guichen left the court hall, only to find that Qi Rufeng and his group were still waiting at the door, as well as Bai Chijun, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

As a general, Bai Chi Jungui spends [-] days a year on the battlefield and rarely returns to the capital, so he also missed Ye Guichen and Liu Qingli's wedding.

When he just came back, he heard that Ye Guichen was married to someone, and they had an extremely grand wedding ceremony, which made him feel very incredible.

Bai Chijun also pulled Qi Rufeng to ask many details, he was amazed, and felt that Ye Guichen would go down to earth one day, she was the same woman six years ago, she was really the same.

He had never seen Liu Qingli before, so he urged a group of people to wait for Ye Guichen, and when he came out, he directly dragged him into the carriage, in the name of letting Ye Guichen make up for the wedding.

Ye Guichen was also depressed and wanted to drink to vent his feelings, so he didn't refuse.

Everyone came to the largest restaurant in the capital, booked a private room, closed the door and had a good drink.
