Empress: The Old Emperor's Way to Pursue His Wife

Chapter 44 Injured (2)

After the food was served, Xiao Yi poured tea for Mo Yanxiao, sincerely: "Master Mo, I used to be young and ignorant, and I only served you tea on the first day of apprenticeship. Now that I think about it, I feel ashamed."

"It doesn't matter, the days are long, just make up for it later." Mo Yanxiao picked up the cup and took a sip, speaking lightly: "I already have a general idea of ​​the situation in that villa, don't worry, everything is still under control. "

Xiao Yi paused, sat down, and said seriously: "In front of you, I don't have to beat around the bush. The minister of the Ministry of Industry has used his position to commit corruption over the years. Although we know about it, he has always been cunning and cautious in his work. , but has not been able to collect enough strong evidence. After all, many border military projects under construction are handled by him alone. If he is easily moved, it may cause chaos. Moreover, it has recently been rumored that he and King Wu Ning had an affair If you have very secret news, you should not act rashly. But last night, in order to show off my temper..." Sighing, I whispered in frustration, "Master Mo, I'm acting out of my temper again. I seem to be forever Can't control my temper, always impulsive..."

"Human nature."

"……what?"

Mo Yanxiao drank the glass of water with a smile: "For the person you care about, no matter how impulsive you do, it is justifiable."

"Oh, maybe... that's true..." Xiao Yi lowered her head and touched her nose, paused, and then said: "Although Ruan Xiaowan has a bit of scheming, she is not to be afraid. She deliberately found me and the emperor together When we were together, I made a coincidence, just to demonstrate to me with my talent and family status, to embarrass me, and it would be better to make me retreat. But it is a pity, she thought that the daughter of a merchant, The world is reckless, but he has such a little appreciation ability, he can tell the origin of those furnishings at a glance. Therefore, at best, this person is just a woman who is raised in a deep boudoir and wants to be accompanied by a phoenix. Zhi blindly shows off, but doesn't even understand the basics of knowing oneself and the enemy. On the contrary, that Xiaomeng next to her..." After thinking for a while, she said in a deep voice: "So far, I only know that she is definitely not an ordinary maid, but she still can't. Confirm her true identity. However, judging by her words and deeds, she should indeed come from the border, and she is from northern Xinjiang. I hope she is not the person I guessed, otherwise..."

When she said these words, Mo Yanxiao kept staring at her, sometimes a little dazed.In the end, he just asked indifferently: "The emperor already knows about these things, right?"

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yi shook her head helplessly: "I don't know how much he knows. He annoys me the most about political affairs. He just wants to talk nonsense with me. I don't know what to say."

Mo Yanxiao frowned slightly, pondered for a while, and suddenly said inexplicably: "The emperor has been busy building the palace for the rest of this month, and I want to find a day to visit."

Xiao Yi was a little dazed by such an abrupt topic change, so she responded subconsciously: "Okay, when?"

"Seven days later, call Shang Zhengyan, and the four of us, master and apprentice, will cook wine and enjoy the snow together."

Xiao Yi looked at the cloudless blue sky and wondered: "The weather is so good recently, where does the snow come from?"

Mo Yanxiao blinked pretending to be mysterious: "I said yes, and there will be."

After a short pause, he got up and went to the window, looking at the wintersweet blooming in the cold wind, his voice was soft, with a vain air of lack of energy, but the words were clear and powerful: "Don't worry about the affairs of the imperial court, everything has its own meaning." I."

Xiao Yi looked at his profile, his shoulders were thin and thin, but straight, which made people feel at ease.

For example, when he said that it will snow, it will definitely fall, even if the sky is clear in front of him.

It's like, he said that he doesn't need to worry, but he can rest assured, even if the situation is turbulent.

So he couldn't help but nodded his head lightly, although it was silent.
