Concubine Agent: My lord, stop pretending

Chapter 268 Planning, Fighting for Position

"What the father said is very true. My son will definitely handle diplomatic matters carefully." Ye Hao bowed and saluted, his nerves relaxed a little.Everything was as expected by Mr. Hong Yuan, as long as he behaved sincerely in front of his father and lowered his posture, his father would forgive him.

This time, Ye Huan must have slandered him behind his back, and he will definitely not let it go.

Emperor Hui looked at his obedient and honest son, and couldn't help but feel a little relieved in his heart. He smiled lightly, nodded and said, "I'm very pleased that you can look away like this. Regarding the things between your brothers, I hope you can be more lenient." .Jing'er has suffered too much these years, and now she has improved, God bless my son."

Ye Hao nodded, and replied sincerely: "Father, don't worry, I will keep it in mind. The fourth brother is blessed. His younger siblings take good care of him, and he will definitely get better in the future." Naturally, he knew what the emperor meant, yes I'm afraid that he will hate Ye Jing because of Ye Jing's change.Ye Jing's change really shocked him, but he won't point the finger at a fool just yet.The person who can really threaten his status is the one who spread rumors secretly.

Seeing that his attitude was very good, Emperor Hui smiled slightly, waved his hand and said, "Okay, it's all right, you can go down. I have agreed to build the canal, and I will make arrangements for specific matters. You can go to work more in your spare time." Let's go and find out what's going on."

Ye Hao was taken aback for a moment, and then he understood what Emperor Hui meant, and he was overjoyed at once, thanking him and saying, "Yes, the minister there will retire!"

"Go." Emperor Hui waved his hands and buried his head in the memorial.

Ye Hao glanced at the golden throne, smiled a little, and then retreated respectfully.

Seeing that Ye Hao had left the imperial study, Yuan Meng picked up a bowl of bird's nest porridge from the little father-in-law next to him, walked up to Emperor Hui, and asked suspiciously: "Your Majesty suddenly agreed to the matter of the canal, what about Prince Hua... ..."

Emperor Hui looked up at Yuanmeng, took the bird's nest porridge, stirred it a few times with a spoon, and said calmly: "Boy Hua has been holding the world's economic lifeline all these years, and his ability is much better than that of Hao'er and Huan'er." , fortunately he has no intention of the throne, otherwise would those two brothers be his opponents?"

Yuan Meng was startled when he heard the words, and quickly glanced at Chang Qing who was next to him. Chang Qing quickly understood, and led a few palace people out of the imperial study.

"Your Majesty means..."

Emperor Hui snorted coldly, and put down the jade bowl: "The person spreading the rumors seems to be done by Huan'er, but in fact it's not the case. He won't be so restless. And Boy Hua is different. , He is used to doing things in his own way and acting independently. Spreading the Haoer Secret and meeting Yu Zilan is only the first step, and I am afraid there will be a second move."

Yuan Meng was taken aback: "Could it be that Prince Hua wants to..." Turning his words around, Yuan Meng looked at Emperor Hui in puzzlement, "Didn't Your Majesty say that Prince Hua has no intention of disobedience?"

"He has no intention of being disobedient, but we have to see who the emperor is." Emperor Hui raised his hand and rubbed the center of his brows, "He is the son of King Ding, and King Ding is dedicated to helping Ye Huan, so How can Hao'er be their opponent?"

Although Yuan Meng was not an official of the imperial court, he had been with Emperor Hui for a long time, and he was very clear about some court secrets and inside information.Yuan Meng thought about what Emperor Hui said, and felt that the matter was very serious: "Your Majesty wants to use the canal to let His Royal Highness receive the hearts and achievements of the people, and then hand over the exchange market on the canal to His Royal Highness. This is the chance to compete with the Fifth Prince."

Emperor Hui nodded with a serious expression, and sighed: "I feel very tired these two years, but Hao'er just doesn't live up to it."

"Then Your Majesty didn't think about it..." Yuan Meng stopped talking at this point, and looked at Emperor Hui cautiously, the latter words were obvious.

Emperor Hui shook his head helplessly, and said slowly: "There are only three sons under my knees. You know, Huan'er can't take the throne. As for Jing'er, if he is good, he may be able to shoulder this burden."

Emperor Hui's helplessness and sadness, Yuan Meng has followed him for decades, so he naturally understands his loneliness and suffering over the years.It would be great if Concubine Yao was still here...

Prince Jing's Mansion, in Jingxuan Pavilion.

After Ye Jing went out last night, she didn't come back until dawn, and she lay down on the bed as soon as she came back, without saying a word.

And Su Yan just sat at the table, looking at the antidote on the table, and sat there until dawn.She lay down on the table and looked back at Ye Jing on the bed. She didn't know what it was like, but she was very uncomfortable and unhappy.

It's getting late, and it's time to get up.

Su Yan took a last look at the pill, then went to a glass of water, and swallowed the medicine with the water.No matter what, you have to live well, don't you?
Su Yan took a deep breath, looked at the bright sunshine outside the window, the gloom in his heart eased a lot, as if the whole person was relaxed.

After Su Yan changed her clothes, she sat in front of the dressing table and began to comb her hair. Suddenly, a big hand stretched out from behind and grabbed her hand holding the wooden comb.

She looked up, and saw a clean and handsome face in the bronze mirror, with sharp edges and corners, and a slight smile on her lips, staring at her tenderly through the bronze mirror.

"I'll help the lady comb her hair." Ye Jing smiled faintly, took the wooden comb from her hand, and began to comb her hair carefully and gently.

Su Yan didn't speak, his eyes lowered slowly, some didn't dare to look into his eyes.She seemed to agree to two conditions last night, does it still count now?

Ye Jing seemed to see what she was thinking, and bent down to her ear, whispering like a lover: "Of course it counts, I haven't given me a good morning kiss yet, I'm waiting for it!"

Su Yan's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately raised his head to look at Ye Jing, but when he met his gaze, he retreated involuntarily, lowered his head and did not speak.

Ye Jing stood behind her, his eyes fell on her ears, the almost red ears made his originally confused heart firmer.The corners of his lips curled up in a happy arc, and he seemed to be humming a little tune in his heart.

Not long after, the hair was combed, and Ye Jing looked at her masterpiece with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "How is my handicraft? Is it better than Yun Sang?"

Su Yan squinted at him, and looked in the mirror.I have to say that this guy's hands are really clever. The hair is tied in a bun, which is delicate and cute, which is very in line with her wishes.

"So-so!" Su Yan commented lightly, straightened his clothes, and prepared to walk outside.

Ye Jing grabbed her wrist, looked at her with a smile, her phoenix eyes were slightly raised, and her spirit was high.

Su Yan frowned, tried to twitch his hand, but remained motionless, looking up at him depressedly.

Ye Jing took her hand and looked at her motionless, her eyes were burning with affection: "Hurry up, or I'll take the initiative!"
