Chapter 163

Emperor Chengqi didn't sleep well last night, and he was still very tired after walking with Xu Ze for a long time, so he left Xu Ze and drove to the harem to rest, and Xu Ze had to go back to the imperial study by himself.

The crown prince was discussing the progress of the new official road in Jinling and Hangzhou with people from the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs. Neither the left minister nor the right minister had any intention of leaving. Maybe he thought that Emperor Chengqi would come back.Xu Ze looked past them, stayed at the Prince's side for a moment, then walked to Feng Wenshi's side.

"Jiancheng." Feng Wenshi bowed.

"Come here." He motioned for the other party to go outside with him.

The two left the imperial study room one after the other. The others seemed to be indifferent on the surface, but they were somewhat curious inside.They came back about half a stick of incense, and there was nothing wrong.

The little father-in-law trotted in, leaned close to the prince and whispered a few words, and the prince told everyone to go back, the emperor will not discuss politics today.

The girl sent by Ning's family entered the palace, which was the time when Emperor Chengqi was fresh.

Xufu
Xu Ye had dinner with the little girl and saw her busy writing a new story in the study, and then went back to Xu's house to meet his father.

Xu Ze deliberately called Feng Wenshi out today to test the reactions of all parties.Sure enough, news came from the palace just now, saying that after he left, several people took Feng Wenshi by the side and slapped him on what they said.

Of course Feng Wenshi kept his mouth shut, so someone will definitely seek answers from the Beijing yamen today and tomorrow.

Only then did Xu Ye realize that his father was helping.

The little girl's original intention was to let the Zhang family be vigilant first and then relax. If they were vigilant, they would send people out of the city to cover up their strongholds, so as to give Dali Temple a chance; if they were lax, they learned that the Jingding yamen's investigation of the secret canal was purely to crack down on gang leaks, and the so-called officials outside used the channel to transport them. After the contraband was all rumors, it was considered a false alarm, and it was what it should have been, but the delivery channel was changed to something else.

But if we relax our vigilance, people will have an opportunity to take advantage of it. Cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents. Will those gangs let this matter pass.Once they were allowed to find clues from the underworld, the Zhang family would offend the underworld in the capital.

"You guessed it all." Xu Ye was helpless, he really couldn't hide anything from the fifth master.

"What is she going to do?" Xu Ze felt that the girl planned this trick to destroy the Zhang family.

Xu Ye's eyes sank, and he played with the small seal in his hand, "Apologize to her well back then, so what's the point?" I didn't know what was wrong, and even sent killers to Jinling to kill them time and time again. If it wasn't for the good helpers around her, How could she survive to this day.

Guang Zhi had fought against the Zhang family's assassins, and he was deeply touched, "That girl is easy to talk to." All her sternness and temper were used in the business field, and she was especially easy to get along with in private.It is an unforgivable crime for the Zhang family to force a good child to this point.

"Can you protect her well?" Xu Ze thought that at the critical moment, he might have to do it himself.

"Small." Xu Ye raised the corner of his mouth, a little arrogantly.

Xu Ze was amused by his son's appearance, "You are promising, Xu Liu."

For the Cheng family, knowing that Lou Shaojiu had missed, Cheng Fu clenched his fists unconsciously, feeling a little annoyed.

Gao Sheng saw that her expression was not right, and comforted her like a child: "Calm down, it will be a matter of time."

Cheng Fu closed his eyes and took a deep breath, "At least Qiuhun won't go wrong."

"No." Gao Sheng looked resolute.

The Cheng family's Mid-Autumn Festival was very peaceful, and there were only two masters. Cheng Fu simply let the big guys go out to play by themselves, and she and Xu Ye watched the moon at home.Anyway, the Cheng family was big enough, and they didn't go to many places.

"Do you think I'm boring?" I thought I had nothing to show for it.

For example, according to the rigid evaluation standards for women in this era, she failed all the grades.The piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are even more incompetent. The only thing that can be used is the archery that Luo Xing has taught for several years.

"If I were a man, I wouldn't look down on someone like myself."

At this time, the two of them were sitting on the grass covered with a large blanket, drinking tea and eating moon cakes. The lonely full moon in the sky made the little girl feel a little lost.

Xu Ye peeled a plate of grapes and put it in front of her, "If I were a woman, would you look at me?"

The little girl weaved that picture in her mind, and couldn't help laughing, "I'll take you away, this and that, and then you will give me a bunch of children." Thinking about it makes me happy.

"..." I seem to have heard these words before.

Xu Ye lay down, resting his hands on the back of his head, looking at the night sky, "Daughter-in-law..."

"Hmm... um? Who is your wife, we are not married yet."

Xu Ye turned his head to look at her, with bright eyes, "I simply can't do without you, anywhere, as long as you are here, even if I am in a daze, I am satisfied."

The little girl was stunned, her face turned red, and then she grabbed Xu Ye's hand to drag him up, "Xu Liu, before my brother comes, let's bridal chamber first."

"Huh?" He heard it right, "Is this what a girl in her boudoir said?" Although he really wanted to.

Can hug and kiss every day but can't touch blindly and dare not go further, just ask which man doesn't suffer.It's all the Zhang family's and Zhao Yanran's fault, why didn't God send a thunderbolt to kill them.It's been in his way for too long.

The little girl covered her mouth and kept laughing, "Xu Liu, you are so cute when you are serious, you will definitely not be a strict father in the future."

In her eyes, Xu Ye has always been an awkward young man, with a bit of facial paralysis but not coldness, most of the time his expression is calm and calm, as if nothing in this world can trouble him.

"My father is not a strict father either."

The Xu family doesn't like the parenting model of sticking out filial sons. His grandfather, uncle, father, and father are more prosperous than the other.On the surface, animals are harmless, but in fact, they have more eyes than anyone else. They like to set traps for their children, and induce them to fall into the traps and get up to fall into the traps...until they realize that they have been tricked.

The sad thing is that Xu Ye thinks this set is quite fun now.

"Xu Liu, I've made up my mind. Life is doomed to three disasters and nine disasters. Dissatisfaction is the norm. No matter whether I can untie this knot in my heart, if you treat me as before, let's get married next year."

Xu Ye pointed to the moon in the sky, "She is looking at you."

The little girl sat on her knees, and nodded her head twice earnestly with great determination, "If you are destined to be the husband-in-law of my Cheng family, then it's better to get through the door early."

"……"Fine.

As soon as the township examination was over at the end of August, the schedule for autumn hunting was approaching, and the preparations for the palace were ready, waiting for Emperor Chengqi to set off.This time Xu Ye was specially arranged to go with a group of young generals behind the leading Imperial City Guard.From the perspective of outsiders, this represents the attention and expectation of the emperor.

Xu Ye knew these young people, but he was not familiar with them. He only blamed the imperial city guard for walking too slowly, so he couldn't get to the hunting ground earlier.

"I heard that the official position is gone, and he is just a dude."

"Without Xu Jiancheng, he would not be qualified to be here."

"What do you know, he is the number one scholar, you should be able to pass the exam casually?"

"Who knows if his father leaked the question in advance."

Xu Ye was wondering whether to retreat to the end, so that they would not have to worry, and let go.

Suddenly a voice came from the side, "Gossip."

These words were not pleasant, and the young people who talked about Xu Ye felt offended. Some of them got angry and immediately choked back loudly: "Who are you scolding?"

"I will scold anyone who talks about other people's right and wrong in person, and you can take your seat as you like."

The person who spoke before was about to continue to refute, but the person next to him stopped him in time.

"Hey, you help someone out, do you appreciate it?" A young man tilted his head to remind everyone to pay attention to Xu Ye.

Xu Yeqi was drowsy on the horse, covering his mouth and yawning from time to time, even after hearing so many slanderous remarks, he didn't mean to respond.However, the young man who helped Xu Ye get ahead was so annoyed by his lackluster appearance, he snorted, put his legs between the horse's belly, and separated him from them.Seeing this, the others chatted more and more proudly.

Three days after arriving at the palace, Xu Ye entered the assigned guest house and fell asleep.

"There is no vigor of a young man." Xu Ze patted him on the back twice.

"Fifth Master, my yard can be repaired." The person with his back facing outside suddenly said.

Xu Ze sat down on the edge of the bed, puzzled and said, "It's only been renovated for a few days."

"Wait...you mean..."

"Hmm." The person with his back facing outward murmured in a half-dream and half-awake state.

The palace has formal houses and tents on nearby slopes.Those young generals chose to live in tents in order to show their roughness. After they set an example, many of their peers followed to live in tents, and even girls tried it.In contrast, Xu Ye, who honestly lives in a good house, is like a canary who can't bear a little bit of hardship.

"Your Majesty, why don't you let Xu Liu go back, he's always being talked about here." Xu Ze complained to Emperor Chengqi.

"What's this, I've been less talked about by people in the world?" He didn't think there was anything wrong with Xu Ye living in a comfortable garden.

Xu Ze curled his lips, and honestly stood beside him in a daze.

"How's Lou Shaojie's injury?" It's a pity that Qiu Lie lost the agile, young Dali Temple Shaoqing.

"I went to check the horse's hoof prints with my injuries. Dali Temple hasn't counted the emperor's matter. You can't disclose it to outsiders, including the prince and the two prime ministers." Xu Ze said seriously.

Emperor Chengqi glared at him, "This country belongs to me, don't I know how to measure it better than you?"

"Then you can pity Xiao Liu and let him go back to Beijing."

Emperor Chengqi was also angry, "How pitiful he is, I see that he sleeps from morning to night. Who would believe that he is also a serious parent official."

Xu Ze didn't really intend to ask Xu Ye to return to Beijing, but it was just for show.
