Reborn Totalitarian Queen

Chapter 772 Allow me to marry the woman I like! (1)
The case of Song Chengze's attempt to kill the king by manipulating sorcery was successfully concluded, beyond Song Chuxi's expectations, and there was no disturbance along the way.

And on the first day when his closing document was handed in, the excerpts played by the Song clan in Nantang had also been sent to the emperor's imperial case.

The emperor was not in a hurry to summon Song Chuxi, and waited until Yin Zhan entered the palace.

"Your Highness, my subordinates have received the exact news. The request for orders from the Song family in Nantang was sent to His Majesty early yesterday morning. It is clear that he kept it secret on purpose." On the way to the imperial study, Wei Heng Some worried: "This subordinate feels a little uneasy."

"Are you afraid that he will backtrack?" Yin Zhan was expressionless, but he didn't care much.

"The emperor has always had other thoughts about Nantang, and he doesn't like Miss Fourth very much." Wei Heng said.

"That's why, before the end of the year, I have to make this matter fully finalized." Yin Zhan said, there was a glint of emotion in his eyes that was not obvious, but it was not easy to catch.

"Why—my ​​lord, you still think there will be changes at the end of the year?" Wei Heng gasped.

"I know her temper. The existence of the Empress Dowager in the Chonghua Palace is the biggest obstacle to her. I always feel that there is something tricky between the Song family and the Duanmu family in Nantang..." Yin Zhan sighed and suddenly thought of something , then stopped again, and looked back at Wei Heng, "I told you to investigate the matter a few days ago..."

What Song Chengze said before his death was definitely not groundless.

But for some unknown reason, Song Chuxi pretended not to hear it, and had no intention of asking anyone to check it out.He had inquired about this matter from the side, but he couldn't let it go, so he asked Wei Heng to investigate Song Chuqi's past.

"We have collected some information about the eldest lady of the Song family before, but that woman is shrewd and capable. It is not difficult to find out her deeds in the Song family, but whenever she travels far away from home, her whereabouts are not easy to find." It's easy to find out, even the guard who is with Miss Fourth doesn't know." Wei Heng said, paused for a while, and said with a bit more solemn expression: "But my lord, there is one more thing that belongs to During the next investigation, I found something else, since that Miss Song disappeared, it seems that the people of Duanmu's family have been secretly tracking her whereabouts for the past few years."

"In this way, the matter of her disappearance should have nothing to do with Duanmuqi?" Yin Zhan pondered.

At that time, he had a feeling that Song Chengze would imply that Song Chuxi's investigation of Song Chuqi's past should be aimed at her alliance with Duanmu's family, but if Song Chuqi's disappearance had nothing to do with Duanmu's family, Song Chengze was implying What?
Yin Zhan was also puzzled by this, so he put it aside for the time being and went to the imperial study to meet the emperor.

The emperor knew that he was coming today, so he left a message for Gao Jinli in advance.

"His Royal Highness is coming." Gao Jinli saw it from a distance, and came up to meet him, and said with a smile, "Your Majesty also thought that it was almost time for you to come today, but I didn't expect His Highness to come into the palace today. "

"Is the emperor free now? In the case of Song Chengze, the king came here to present the documents for closing the case." Yin Zhan said lightly.

"I'm grading papers inside." Gao Jinli said with a smile: "If you say that His Highness is coming, please go in directly, please."

Yin Zhan was not polite to him, and walked in directly.

Knowing that Yin Zhan was coming today, the emperor's imperial study room was cleared in advance, and there was no servant, only him sitting behind the case to review the memorial.

The whole hall was quiet, and the atmosphere was very uncomfortable.

However, Yin Zhan walked straight into the inner hall as if he hadn't noticed anything, and took out a booklet from his sleeve, "My brother has seen the emperor! The case of Song Chengze has been concluded, and I just came to report the matter to the emperor today." , let the emperor wait for a long time."

He put the booklet on the emperor's imperial case.

The emperor looked up, then put down the vermilion pen in his hand, raised his hand and pointed, "Sit down."

Does he have something to say?
Yin Zhan didn't refute his face, and walked over with kindness, flicked the corner of his robe, and sat down on the chair.

The emperor picked up the booklet and glanced at it roughly, then threw it aside casually, looked up at him and said: "The booklet recommended by the master of the Song family in Nantang has been handed in yesterday."

"Oh!" Yin Zhan responded lightly.

The emperor leaned on the back of the chair, took out the letter from the folder on the right, opened it casually, glanced at it, and then showed a mocking expression, "That girl is serious, she is a young girl It only took two short years to control the entire Song family to such an extent that I really underestimated her before."

He really couldn't be praising Song Chuxi.

Yin Zhan didn't answer either.

The emperor said by himself, then threw the folder back, and looked up at him again.

Yin Zhan didn't go around in circles with him, and said directly: "Brother Huang, do you have anything to say to your younger brother?"

The emperor looked at him with a calm but dignified expression on his face. Finally, he took a deep breath and said, "It's been so many years, are you still worrying about that woman?"

That incident was almost a taboo between the emperor and Yin Zhan. Although both of them were brooding over it, after so many years, they almost never brought it up in person.

The corners of Yin Zhan's lips curved suddenly, and he raised his eyes to meet his gaze.

His eyes were full of sarcasm, and the emperor just stared at him, but his heart was blocked, but he had no choice but to restrain himself reluctantly in the end, calming down his emotions and saying: "I know you can't let go of that matter, but the ancestor According to the above rules, a country girl with no family background, how can you tell me to recognize her identity? In other words, it is not a good thing for Li Er to have a mother and concubine with such a background. These principles, I told you all about it back then, and you obviously knew it all, but you still want to go your own way?"

The emperor said, he obviously wanted to make his tone sound more earnest, but thinking about Yin Zhan's tit-for-tat disobedience to him all these years, he spent almost all his energy to stabilize his emotions and didn't call himself Turn your face again in public.

He sighed, and fixedly looked at Yin Zhan with deep eyes, "Actually, you said that you were dissatisfied with me because of that woman, but in fact it was because of other things, so you made use of it?"

For so many years, he always felt that the reason why Yin Zhan really turned against him was not because he refused to let him marry the woman he liked, but——

Because he ascended to the throne, but Yin Zhan, as the most beloved and favorite prince of the late emperor, missed this supreme position.
