MTL - The Crown Prince Chases His Wife-Chapter 70 Don't advise
In the capital, it is forbidden to enter.
Emperor Hui went to Shou'an Palace for three consecutive days, but was blocked from the palace gate by the words "The Queen Mother is in poor health".
Today, Emperor Hui's imperial car went to Shou'an Palace again, but he was not blocked. Instead, he was led by Xia Ying, the **** in charge of Shou'an Palace, to the Dongnuan Pavilion in the main hall, but was left there for half an hour before the Empress Dowager Xiao arrived.
In the warm pavilion, the atmosphere is not too harmonious.
After a few greetings, Emperor Hui went straight to the topic:
"The Empress Dowager, is there something wrong with the marriage between Yongding Hou's mansion and the Yizhou royal family?"
Although Empress Dowager Xiao helped the crown prince seize power from Emperor Hui, Emperor Hui still respected Empress Dowager Xiao because he was grateful for the support the Empress Dowager had given him, at least, on the surface, that was the case.
Empress Dowager Xiao paused while petting the cat, raised her eyes slightly, and said coldly:
"This palace just changed the side room that His Majesty gave to Xie Changyuan to the main room. This marriage, given by His Majesty, can't be given by this palace?"
Emperor Hui was a little puzzled by the empress dowager's vague remarks, but he suddenly reacted, not as he had guessed.
"The side room that I gave to Zhang Yuan before is the sister of the King of Yizhou?" Emperor Hui asked Empress Dowager Xiao.
Mrs. Xiao picked up the tea cup at hand and sipped it slowly. Across the white mist of tea, Mrs. Xiao lifted her eyes slightly and looked at Emperor Hui with a somewhat ironic expression.
"When Your Majesty conferred the marriage, did you not find out the identity of the other party?"
When Emperor Hui came out of Shou'an Palace, his face was ashen, and he immediately ordered Li Fuquan,
"Let Xie Changyuan enter the palace to see me immediately."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Li Fuquan was just outside the warm pavilion, and he didn't know the content of the conversation between the saint and the queen mother, but looking at the situation, Xie Shizi must have done something to offend the saint.
But Xie Shizi, but His Majesty trusts and relies heavily on people, don't let the Holy One down.
------
Shortly after Emperor Hui left, Master Yishan arrived at Shou'an Palace.
Empress Dowager Xiao did not have a good face towards Yi Shan, and she repeatedly violated her behavior over the years, asking questions repeatedly,
"Yishan, have you forgotten that this palace arranged you to be with the prince?"
"Now, you only recognize the prince and don't know this palace?"
"Don't you remember that you still bear the title of Emperor Teacher? And how could Qin Yan become your disciple?"
"Yishan, what are you doing?"
Empress Dowager Xiao's last question became more and more cold.
Yishan listened quietly to the Queen Mother Xiao, and sighed faintly,
"What did the queen mother say, the old man is half-dead, what else can he do?"
"It's just, the queen mother, many things, in the dark, have their own set numbers, and they cannot be controlled by human beings. Why don't the queen mother let go a little bit, maybe there will be a different situation."
Yishan is very sorry for his old friend, the Queen Mother Xiao.
Empress Dowager Xiao used to be passionate about Daxia, the court, and the late emperor. But since the empress dowager was let down by the previous emperor, the whole person seemed to have changed her mind and became the cold and ruthless royal family member she hated the most.
She even dyed her hands with blood for a time, using power as a sharp blade, and became a murderous executioner without blinking an eye.
Empress Dowager Xiao's cool and tired voice sounded in the warm pavilion, interrupting Yishan's thoughts.
"Yishan, don't persuade others to be kind without suffering others."
Yishan was dumbfounded. Indeed, the Buddha said, "You can't think about it. You'll be wrong when you think about it."
He will no longer evaluate or persuade the queen mother in the future.
However, will the queen mother understand that neither the prince nor Qin Yan can be easily manipulated by her.
------
When Li Fuquan went to the Beiya Imperial Barracks to find Xie Changyuan, he had already informed him that the Sage was in a bad mood, so Xie Changyuan was mentally prepared before stepping into the imperial study.
In the imperial study room, Xie Chang Yuan knelt down on one knee,
"His Majesty."
The one who responded to him was smashing a teacup at him from the direction of the imperial case.
"Bastard." In the direction of the imperial case, there was an angry shout from the saint.
Xie Changyuan closed his eyes and didn't dodge. The cup fell to the ground in front of him, and the shattered pieces of porcelain bounced off, cutting his side face with blood, and the spilled tea also splashed his robes. , but Xie Changyuan ignored it and only silently endured the wrath from the emperor.
Xie Chang Yuan really didn't know what he did wrong at this time and would offend Long Yan.
Is it, the annexation of land?
He has indeed recently purchased a lot of fields next to the main mansion of Zhaoren County in the western suburbs to expand the mansion. Is this because of this?
But what Emperor Hui said next denied his speculation.
"Tell me what happened to your side room?" Emperor Hui suppressed his anger, and he wanted to hear Xie Changyuan explain this terrible thing in person.
Xie Chang Yuan frowned suspiciously, side room? Ayan?
And Xie Changyuan suddenly thought of something, and the color of his eyes changed.
Master Yishan once solemnly asked him to distance himself from Ayan, so, who is Ayan?
Emperor Hui squinted to observe Xie Changyuan's reaction, he couldn't judge whether Xie Changyuan knew about this matter. But Xie Changyuan was in charge of the Beiya Imperial Army, which was the last line of defense for the imperial city, and Xie Changyuan could not show any disagreement.
And Yizhou, who had a close relationship with the Queen Mother Xiao, quietly placed such a person next to Xie Changyuan, whether Xie Changyuan knew about it or not.
------
Seeing that Xie Changyuan just frowned and didn't speak, Emperor Hui sighed and said:
"That day you came to me and asked me to revoke the decree of marrying the Queen of Yizhou as your wife, do you know that the Queen of Yizhou on the Queen Mother's decree is the one you have been hiding for three years? side room."
Xie Changyuan's pupils shrank suddenly, and his face was obviously shocked.
Seeing that Xie Changyuan didn't seem to know about this, Emperor Hui felt a little relieved, but he was still not angry with Xie Changyuan's carelessness, letting such a sensitive person stay by his side for three years.
Today's Empress Dowager Xiao's eyes were like a warning, but also a mockery. She was blatantly telling Emperor Hui that the Empress Dowager could easily place eyeliner around Emperor Hui.
"Zhang Yuan, don't tell me what connection you have with Yizhou."
Xie Chang Yuan immediately bowed his head.
"Your Majesty has a clear view, this minister is also kept in the dark, without knowing it."
Xie Changyuan told Emperor Hui about the acquaintance with A Yan on Meishan during the three-year period. Of course, he passed Qin Yan's part.
When Emperor Hui heard this, he sighed and shook his head, Zhang Yuan was really careless.
And now the Queen Mother's gift of marriage is to tie Yongding Hou's mansion and Yizhou together. Maybe, Yongding Hou Xie'an has reached a consensus with Queen Mother Xiao.
At this moment, Xie Changyuan actually remembered Xie Zhao's decision to leave the Xie family tree at the banquet at the Longevity Palace that day, but Xie Changyuan couldn't, and he was not reconciled.
The title of Yongding Hou Xie'an was obtained by his mother, so he couldn't take it for granted.
Xie Changyuan bowed his head to the ground again,
"My minister is loyal to Your Majesty, please Your Majesty's lesson."
Emperor Hui's brows knitted together. This matter is indeed troublesome, but there are not many people he can trust. If he abandons Chang Yuan in a one-size-fits-all manner because of this, would it be the Queen Mother's intention to break his own arm.
Emperor Hui closed his eyes, then opened them again, his voice exhausted.
"Zhang Yuan, I hope you don't let me down."
When Xie Changyuan left the imperial study, he was very worried and his steps were heavy.
------
Xie Changyuan went out of the palace gate, first went to the Beiya forbidden military camp to explain his official duties, and then mounted his horse and galloped to Yongding Hou's mansion. Everyone in the mansion was overjoyed when they saw the prince returning to the mansion, but Xie Changyuan just entered the mansion to find A Yan, and learned that A Yan Before returning home, he left immediately.
Xie Changyuan rode his horse to the house where the Queen Mother arranged for the King of Yizhou in Shangjing.
After reporting his name, the princess of Yizhou sent someone to welcome him into the main hall.
The King of Yizhou was not in the mansion, and Xie Changyuan only saw the princess sitting at the top in the hall. After some greetings, Xie Changyuan went straight to the point.
"Princess, I want to see A Yan."
Song Yin, Princess of Yizhou, didn't realize who A Yan was for the first time, but she thought about it a few times, oh, isn't it Ye Qingli?
"Let Miss come over." Song Yin instructed the servants to invite Ye Qingli.
Song Yin asked Xie Changyuan to show the tea, and then he took the tea cup and drank it lightly.
Looking at Xie Changyuan's appearance today, it doesn't look like he's here to discuss marriage, but he looks like he's here to ask his teacher for guilt.
Ye Qingli didn't recognize her sister-in-law Song Yin, so she wouldn't take the initiative to get out of trouble for this little sister-in-law with eyes above the top.
In the time of a cup of tea, A Yan carried the hem of the gauze skirt and trotted into the hall.
"Brother Chang Yuan." A Yan looked at Xie Chang Yuan with an irresistible joy on her face.
When elder brother Chang Yuan finally came to her, she knew that elder brother Chang Yuan would not ignore her.
A Yan's attempt to pounce on Xie Changyuan's arms was interrupted by Song Yin's sudden rise.
"Xie Shizi, I won't be an eyesore here, you two have a good talk."
"By the way, please take care of Shizi Xie. Qingli is still young... Oh, right, I'm afraid Shizi Xie doesn't know yet. Qingli is the Ayan in the mouth of Shizi Xie. Her original name is Ye Qingli."
"Qingli is the youngest daughter of the king of Xian Yizhou. She has been living abroad since she was a child. She was brought back to Yizhou when she was only ten years old. It is also a hard life. If there is anything wrong, please take care of Shizi. Oh, look I said a few more words, these words, let Qingli tell you slowly."
"Xie Shizi, I'm sorry."
Song Yin stepped out of the hall, and when they passed Ye Qingli, the two looked at each other. Ye Qingli looked vigilant, while Song Yin raised her eyebrows slightly, full of irony.
Song Yin didn't know how to speak these unruly lotus words before, but they just disdain to use them.
Ye Qingli, ask yourself for more happiness.
------
After Song Yin left, Ye Qingli's face was full of smiles again, and she rushed towards Xie Changyuan.
"Stop." Xie Changyuan said coldly, Ye Qingli's movements froze halfway.
Xie Changyuan got up and looked at Ye Qingli in front of him coldly.
With tears in Ye Qingli's eyes, she looked at Xie Changyuan pitifully. In the past, as long as he had this expression, brother Zhang Yuan would immediately coax her.
Xie Changyuan walked towards Ye Qingli step by step, his whole body was full of cold air.
"Ye Qingli? Didn't you say your name was 'A Yan'? You concealed your identity and spent three years in Yongding Hou's mansion. What are your plans?"
"No, I didn't, Brother Zhang Yuan, I didn't say my real name because I didn't want Brother Wang to find me, what was my intention? I deceived you on purpose, really, Big Brother Zhang Yuan, you believe me."
Ye Qingli spoke in a hurry, approached Xie Changyuan, reached out to grab Xie Changyuan's arm, but was thrown away by Xie Changyuan.
Xie Chang Yuan sneered in his heart, the name that the master mentioned casually?
Xie Changyuan took a deep breath and said coldly:
"So, not only did you steal Qin Yan's identity as a disciple of Master Yishan, but you also steal Qin Yan's paintings, and even your former pseudonym steals Qin Yan?"
"Where did your face come from?"
