The Princess of the Fairy Phoenix Road

Chapter 229 Where Did the Groom Go? (2)
As he spoke, he looked at Chu Xunyang beggingly, hoping that Chu Xunyang could say a few words for him.

He only said that he came to invite people, but did not emphasize that it was the emperor's order.

Chu Xunyang's eyes flickered slightly, and he said with a smile, "Le Shui father-in-law, let's talk about it here, I'm afraid my brother is really not free today, so he agreed to accompany me to pay my respects to the emperor's grandmother!"

As he said that, he went over and pulled Chu Qifeng's sleeves and said: "The last time the imperial grandmother gave so many rewards, I always have to go to thank you in person. The imperial grandmother should be very busy these two days. My brother accompanied me. Let me come together!"

"En!" Chu Qifeng nodded, put down the tea cup and got up.

The two siblings walked out side by side.

Le Shui was about to go up to him in a hurry, but when Chu Qifeng passed him shoulder to shoulder, he was the first to say, "Everyone in my East Palace has always acted upright. This king has nothing to say. Now I have to rush into the palace to meet the emperor." Grandmother, for the kindness from Manager Li, I would like to ask my father-in-law to thank you on my behalf."

After saying that, he strode out the door.

"Hey!" Le Shui was anxious, and opened his mouth towards his back, but in the end he still couldn't say anything.

When Chu Qifeng and Chu Xunyang came out of the yard, the little eunuch next to him murmured disapprovingly: "King Kang and our prince, the father and son really have the same temper. It's time to burn our eyebrows. Why are they like this?" Don't know how to worry?"

Le Shui's errands were not completed, and he was unhappy. Hearing this, he gave him a warning look and scolded: "Take care of your own mouth, can the masters talk about right and wrong?"

"Yes! I'm overstepping the rules, don't dare anymore!" The little eunuch realized that he had made a slip of the tongue, and slapped himself twice with a mournful face.

Le Shui glanced at him and snorted coldly: "Go, go back to the palace!"

The group hurried back to the palace.

At that time, another guard was added to the gate of the emperor's study room, which added a sense of chilling to people's hearts out of thin air.

Le Shui felt a little apprehensive, shrunk his neck at the door, and then straightened his clothes carefully, then tiptoed to the outer hall, hid behind the pillars, and peeked inside.

At that time, there was a lot of people in the hall, from the emperor, Prince Rui, Nanhe King Chu Yimin, etc., down to the chief assistant, cabinet ministers, Dali Temple Minister, etc. The atmosphere in the hall was tense, depressing and cold.

Le Shui didn't dare to go in clearly, and when he was burning with anxiety, Li Ruixiang, who was standing silently behind the emperor, had already caught sight of him.

Le Shui was overjoyed, and quickly mouthed a few words to Yaoyao.

Those servants who often walked around the emperor were somewhat able to read lips.

Le Shui said a few words in a hurry, then he was afraid of alarming the emperor and others inside, so he quickly turned around and retreated, standing outside on the porch and waiting.

Not long after, Li Ruixiang came out of it holding a gold-plated teacup.

The sharp-eyed little eunuch hurried up to meet him, holding the teacup in both hands and trotted down to change the tea.

"Master!" Le Shui said, shrinking his head to his side, his face full of embarrassment, "I just came back from the East Palace, and the King of Kang County also pushed it clean, and he refused to interfere in this matter at all. Look at this—"

The division of the situation in the entire East Palace is very delicate. The only two sons under the prince's knees are born by the side concubine. Chu Qihui has the advantage of the eldest son, but Chu Qifeng has the emperor's attention. If there is a real balance, the two are evenly matched, and neither of them Who will lose by how much? Although Le Shui dare not say it clearly, there is a faint murmur in his heart——

On the day of their wedding, the five princes of Mobei resorted to a trick to get out of their shells and escaped. The eldest grandson of the emperor was involved in the case, but the king of Kangjun stood by with indifferent attitude. This eighth achievement was a dispute within their East Palace.

However, when it comes to the matter of the crown prince, he didn't dare to say these words casually. He just looked at Li Ruixiang's face and said, "Master, since His Royal Highness and King Kangjun don't care about this matter, why do you bother this god? Just do what you can, and you will never be held accountable for this matter."

"Why do you think I have to ask about this matter?" Li Ruixiang glanced sideways at him, his brows still as clear as water, and said, "Although His Royal Highness is the crown prince of a country, it is not possible for you and me to be separated for no reason. How about it, but at this critical juncture, all the members of his East Palace are refusing to intervene in this matter, have you ever thought about the reason?"

Chu Qihui is the eldest son of the crown prince, and the reputation and reputation of the entire East Palace are at stake. Will Chu Yi'an stand by and watch?
I'm afraid there is only one explanation——

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is confident that this matter will not have a substantial impact on his East Palace.

In this way, the opportunity to give favors for nothing is in front of him——

Why not?

After all, Le Shui was still young, and he didn't see things clearly enough, so he said with a bitter face, "But what should we do now? It's not like you don't know the temper of those masters, just a little bit the size of my sesame mung bean. It's not worth the fart, Master——I can't help it!"

Li Ruixiang thought for a while and said, "Where is King Kang?"

"Entered the palace!" Le Shui said, "Accompany Princess Xunyang to Shoukang Palace to greet the empress!"

"Come into the palace?" Li Ruixiang smiled knowingly when he heard the words——

It is clear that there is intentional meddling in what to say, but if Chu Qifeng took the initiative to ask the emperor because of Chu Qihui's matter, it would seem deliberate, and if the emperor took the initiative to summon him later, it would be a different matter.

Le Shui was confused, scratched the back of his head and said, "Master——"

"Go and do your work!" Li Ruixiang said, but didn't say any more.

Because Chu Qihui was implicated in the case, the emperor was furious, and after bringing him here early in the morning, he ordered someone to summon Chu Yi'an.Li Ruixiang personally delivered the oral order, but the crown prince who was dealing with government affairs at Changmingxuan didn't even lift his eyelids, and saw off the guests only because he had important military affairs to deal with urgently.

As a last resort, Li Ruixiang asked Le Shui to go to the East Palace again——

Anyway, if Chu Qifeng is invited here, it won't be one-sided here, and it can be regarded as a favor to Donggong.

It turned out well--

Chu Qifeng also pushed it decisively!
Li Ruixiang smiled to himself again after thinking about it, and waved to Le Shui.

Le Shui suffocated his words and withdrew his eyes, and the little eunuch who was holding tea in the distance quickly came over and handed him the re-brewed tea soup.

Li Ruixiang brought tea into the hall.

As soon as the front foot stepped through the door, the emperor yelled angrily: "Waste! They are all waste! It's just looking for someone. I don't know what you are raising for food!"

Before the words were finished, Liang Yu, commander of the soldiers and horses of the Nine Cities, Lord Yao of the infantry yamen, and even the commander of the Imperial Forest Army all knelt down on the ground in panic.
