Chapter 114 Obedient
After Empress Yan proposed the person she thought was the most suitable, she clearly saw Emperor Dongling's face darken.
However, although he noticed that Emperor Dongling's mood had changed, he didn't say anything.She just nodded lightly, "Just as long as the queen thinks it's good. Let's issue the decree of the marriage tomorrow. The second child can't be so depressed anymore."
After finishing speaking, Emperor Dong Ling brushed off Empress Yan's hand on his shoulder, "I still have something to do, Empress, please rest. Yu'er will come with me."
Empress Yan quickly exchanged glances with Xiao Yu, and after seeing the hint in his eyes, Empress Yan sent Emperor Dongling out of the palace with a slight smile.
After Emperor Dong Ling left, although Empress Yan did not let go of her smile, her eyes darkened a bit.
Emperor Dong Ling hadn't set foot in the harem these years, and if he came, he would come to her palace, so the whole Dong Ling didn't have a son after the birth of the twelve princes.
Thinking of the woman who passed away after giving birth to the Twelve Princes, Empress Yan clenched her fists, a venomous look flashed across her eyes.However, the smile and the corners of the lips returned.
If this woman in the harem does not have a son by her side, then the rest of her life will definitely be miserable.
But if she had a son but lost her life to enjoy the blessings, she could only lament that she was so beautiful.
Empress Yan thought about what Xiao Yu told her just now, and the smile on her lips deepened.Since ancient times, the Tian family has been very ruthless, brothers and sisters have killed each other, and when their son died, they would only be angry for a few days and then have no follow-up. Only the Tian family can do these things.
Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to play the emotional card in the palace. They only seek benefits.Xiao Yu's ability to ask her for the marriage proposal shows that he has already made a sure plan to win Xiao Jue, and of course Empress Yan will speak for him.
……
On the way to the imperial study, Xiao Yu followed behind Emperor Dong Ling.Looking at the shadow falling on the ground, Xiao Yu's face was full of idleness.
But Xiao Yu was able to walk without distractions, while Emperor Dongling looked preoccupied.After listening carefully, Emperor Dong Ling realized that Xiao Yu was following a few steps away from him, so he stopped.
With a wave of the servants who followed him, only Emperor Dongling and Xiao Yu were left in the whole imperial garden.
"If you feel that you are fine, you can start to resume your morning morning tomorrow. Things have been a little bit more recently, and I need your help." Emperor Dong Ling walked to a pavilion and sat down, rubbed his temples, and ordered Xiao Yu's voice to be in order. With a trace of tiredness.
Xiao Yu nodded with a faint smile, and responded to Emperor Dong Ling's words, "My son will definitely share my father's worries. But I still have a question, why didn't my father call my second brother to come during my son's illness?" Share a little?"
As soon as Xiao Jue was mentioned, Emperor Dongling looked at Xiao Yu with dark eyes.It wasn't until the smile on Xiao Yu's face could no longer hold that he said slowly, "Because of Twelve's incident, the second child hasn't been to court for a long time."
Emperor Dongling paused, and seeing that there was no other expression change on Xiao Yu's face, he revealed a sighing expression, "You two brothers have the most outstanding abilities among all the princes, but it's just that I have thoroughly fucked them up. Heart."
"It's my son's fault." Xiao Yu lowered his head as if he was blaming himself when Emperor Dongling said this, but his hands hidden in the wide sleeves were gradually clenched.
Emperor Dong Ling waved his hand, as if he didn't care, but the next sentence made Xiao Yu's heart a little colder, "In fact, I also regret the matter of Twelve. But Zhao Han has never been able to find the murderer. , this matter can only be put aside for the time being, as his living elder brother, the sons of the Tian family, you really shouldn't spend too much time on mourning. The imperial court still needs you."
Emperor Dongling's words described what had happened in the past few days in a dignified manner. Even Xiao Yu felt that the death of the twelve princes was a very common thing after hearing it.
This is the heavenly home.
The faint smile on Xiao Yu's face didn't go away, he just nodded respectfully.Then he slightly raised his eyes to look at the bright yellow dragon robe on Emperor Dong Ling's body, compared with the dark purple clothes on his body, Xiao Yu suddenly thought of something that Feng Qiu mentioned to him before.
After pondering for a while, when Emperor Dong Ling was about to get up, Xiao Yu said abruptly, "The matter of the twelfth brother is indeed very deplorable. But the second brother will stay behind closed doors for so many days, and in the end he won't even go to the morning court." , Father, don’t you think something is wrong? As a brother, I feel that the second brother should take over the investigation of the murder case, instead of shirking it away.”
At first hearing Xiao Yu's words, one would feel that he was still a little young and energetic, and he tripped Xiao Jue at Emperor Dongling without thinking, but Emperor Dongling knew Xiao Yu's character very well. If something goes wrong, he will definitely not take the initiative to mention anyone in front of him.
Knowing how to restrain one's edge and be aware of current affairs, these are the reasons why Emperor Dongling chose Xiao Yu as the prince in the first place.And these characteristics that a crown prince should have are completely missing in Xiao Jue.Relying on his reputation as a virtuous king in the world, Emperor Dongling will only regard him more and more as a prince who can assist the emperor.
Emperor Dong Ling paused for a moment, and the voice he spoke to Xiao Yu was full of exhaustion, "You are already the prince, so you don't have to worry about these other things. As for the presiding murder case you just mentioned, since If the second child refuses to take over, you will have to work harder, and you will be the chief judge of this matter."
Emperor Dong Ling's words did not seem to take Xiao Yu's reminder seriously.Sitting back in the pavilion again, Emperor Dong Ling waved his hand to let Xiao Yu back down, "I'm a little tired, and you must be tired after following you out for so long, so go back and rest."
Xiao Yu's eyes darkened, and he left the Royal Garden without saying a word.But after turning around, Xiao Yu's light smile suddenly brought a touch of deep satisfaction in his eyes.
When talking with Emperor Dongling, one doesn't need to make the words clear, just casually raise a point, and a deep seed of doubt can be planted in his heart.
After Xiao Yu left, the exhausted expression on Emperor Dong Ling's face immediately disappeared, and he gave a loud order to the servant not far away, "Come here, go and call the second child to me immediately!"
Although what Xiao Yu said was cryptic, Emperor Dong Ling could hear other meanings in his words.This evil Xiao Jue even dared to kill his own siblings, maybe he was the one who poisoned Xiao Yu that day.
"Your Majesty..." The servant who had followed Emperor Dongling for a long time saw his angry face, and immediately knelt on the ground in horror, "The emperor calms down, maybe the emperor misunderstood the second prince, why don't you ask the prime minister to discuss it?"
"To shut up!"
Emperor Dongling looked at this bold servant, even if he had misunderstood Xiao Jue, he needed to ask him face to face.As for Prime Minister Yan, he only found out yesterday that Prime Minister Yan belonged to the crown prince. If he was called to discuss at this time, he might get the same words as the crown prince.
Emperor Dong Ling narrowed his eyes slightly, and he suddenly had the idea of changing a prime minister.
……
Although there was a warm sun shining outside the tent, seeing the men in the barracks, Han Poli suddenly missed Xia Zhi.
Now that he thinks about it, he will do it.Han Poli strode back to the tent, his body was still covered with sweat from the training just now, when Han Poli opened the curtain and went in, he was rushed by the warm brazier, Han Poli felt My body is getting hotter.
Hearing the sound of water in the cubicle, Han Poli took off the coat he wore during the training just now without hesitation, leaving only a set of maroon underclothes sticking wetly on his body.
But before he entered the compartment, he heard the voices of two women talking from inside.Han Poli immediately stopped and stood outside the door to eavesdrop.
After Bai Yi wet Xia Zhi's hair, he took a soap and carefully washed her soft and long black hair.When Bai Yi saw Xia Zhi's fair neck inadvertently, he suddenly asked, "Miss, is it true that she won't marry Mr. Fang?"
"Yeah." Xia Zhi leaned comfortably on the edge of the bucket, and the straps that tied her eyes were also taken off.
"But," Bai Yi bit his lip, and hesitated for a moment before continuing, "But if you don't choose Mr. Fang, Miss, then all the things Jimo's family arranged for you will be withdrawn in a year. Even your The identity of Miss Jimo's family will also be lost."
"I know." Xia Zhi replied lightly.Soaked in warm water, Xia Zhi felt that compared to the warmth of her body, her neck was a bit cold, so she immediately soaked her neck in the water. "It's gone, it's gone, as long as I'm still alive after one year."
"Bah, bah, miss, what are you talking about?" Bai Yi heard Xia Zhi's words, his face became anxious, and finally he boldly reprimanded her.
"But Miss, even if you don't choose Mr. Fang, you can choose General Han. It's just that his status as a general may conflict with your entire plan. Miss, I have been wondering why you didn't choose to support Han at the beginning. General, isn't it easier than letting Dong Ling deal with Xi Cang?"
Bai Yi's words are extremely bold, and she can easily spit out things that others dare not say casually.For example, Dong Ling's throne is also an extremely easy thing to obtain in her mouth.
Xia Zhi shook her head, and smiled slightly, "If the throne is so easy to obtain, then not everyone in the world can sit on the throne for a few days." People think they are indeed capable of doing it, but they still have to restrain themselves when talking outside.
What's more, Xia Zhi felt that before reaching her goal, she absolutely couldn't talk to the full.
"It's not that I don't want Brother Han to take that position, but that his identity and his beliefs from childhood are not suitable."
Xia Zhi's words just fell into the ears of Han Poli, who had been standing outside the door and eavesdropping.Han Poli's dark eyes were fixed on the half-closed door, and he could almost see a trace of charming color through the crack of the door.
Clenching his fists tightly, Han Poli bowed his head in thought for a while, then turned and walked outside.
