The emperor always wants to promise himself

Chapter 356
Xiao Yu tried hard to recall, but his head was blank, there was nothing, and he felt a faint pain when he thought too much.

Xiao Yu frowned, and slowly sat up, the flustered feeling hadn't dissipated, and she felt a chill down her back.

When I touched it with my backhand, it was full of water, it was her cold sweat.

"Huh..." She stretched out her hand to press the position of her heart, feeling the beating of her heart, and shook her head: "It seems that the nightmare is also the reaction of the Gu insect."

"My lord? Are you awake?"

The red sleeve at the door heard the slight movement inside, and couldn't help approaching the door and asking in a low voice.

"Wake up, come in."

Hongxiu pushed the door open and saw Xiao Yu sitting beside the bed in his underwear. He hurriedly closed the door and walked over and said, "Is the lord still sleeping? If you don't sleep, put on your coat. Otherwise, you will catch a cold easily."

Xiao Yu nodded: "Don't sleep, change clothes."

"Okay." Hongxiu took the clothes over and helped her put them on, "Master Han Yi came here once, knowing that the prince was sleeping, so he said that he would come back when he woke up."

"Where is he now?"

"It's guarding in the courtyard."

"Let him in."

"Yes."

Hong Xiu went out and said to Han Yi who was standing in the court with his hands behind his back: "Master Han Yi, the prince is awake, please come in."

"Ah."

Han Yi entered the inner hall, Xiao Yu had already sat down at the table, she poured a cup of tea for Han Yi and placed it opposite her.

"Sit down, drink some tea, and warm yourself up."

"Thank you master." Han Yi took a seat opposite Xiao Yu, took a sip from the tea cup, and his sharp eyebrows softened.

"You're so anxious to see me, what did you find out?"

Xiao Yu took a sip to moisten his throat.

Han Yi nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Duke Ning hasn't found any clues yet. There were too many people in Ning Guogong's mansion on the day of the full moon wine. He met more than a dozen people one after another. There were both civil and military officials. Talk too much, let’s just talk a few words.”

Xiao Yu was thoughtful: "Isn't there a special one?"

Han Yi hesitated and said: "If you want to say something special, there is really one person."

"Who?"

"Duke Ning."

"Huh? How do you say it?"

Han Yi looked at Xiao Yu with complicated eyes, "It stands to reason that Ding Guogong and Ning Guogong should fight for power, but this time they met, they didn't have such a strong sense of gunpowder, and even said a few words with a smile, Ningguogong invited Dingguogong to go to the study to look at his new calligraphy and painting, at that time there were too many people, Xuan Yiwei couldn't approach rashly, so he watched from a distance, and the two stayed in the study for a quarter of an hour."

"A quarter of an hour? That's really a long time. Rongguo's mansion has fallen. It's understandable that Ningguo wants to form an alliance with Ding. It’s not right to come together and think about it.”

Xiao Yu unconsciously tapped on the table with her fingers.

Han Yi's gaze landed on her white fingertips with a hint of pink, and he paused.

"The other subordinates have not been found."

Xiao Yu nodded: "Where is the Prince Regent's Mansion?"

"Since the prince went to Suizhou, the old concubine has been staying behind closed doors at the Prince Regent's mansion, and no one else came to visit her. Until half a month ago, the old concubine sent someone to send a letter to Duke Ding. I sent my confidant housekeeper to return another letter."

Xiao Yu paused with her fingertips, looked up, "Do you know what was written in the letter?"

Han Yi shook his head and said: "The old concubine also has many masters around her, Xuan Yiwei dare not get too close to see what is written in her letter."

"I can't blame you, it's really inconvenient." Xiao Yu stared at the table in a daze.

Suddenly she asked with a thought: "Han Yi, do you know whether it is the old concubine who delivered the letter first, or Ning Guogong's full moon wine first?"

Han Yi was taken aback, not understanding why Xiao Yu asked such a question, but he still said honestly: "It was the old concubine who delivered the letter first."

"What does she send letters to Ding Guogong? It is obvious that the relationship between their father and daughter is very indifferent, and it is impossible to send letters to communicate feelings for no reason, and the friendship between Ning Guogong and Ding Guogong is even more confusing. Will there be any relationship between them?"

Xiao Yu stood up and paced back and forth in the room.

After a while, she said to Han Yi: "Accompany me to the Prince Regent's Mansion. I still have to meet my good mother and ask her what she wants to do."

"Yes."

Xiao Yu asked Hong Xiu to tell Jun Rong that he would go to the Prince Regent's Mansion by himself, and come back later, and then left the palace with cold clothes.

……

"Have you finished Qin'er's homework today?" The old concubine put down her chopsticks and looked at Xiao Qin who was obediently eating.

"Would you like to see my mother when I'm done?" Xiao Qin put down his chopsticks after eating the last bite, and looked at his mother with a smile.

"Okay, what did the teacher teach you today?"

"Hmm... the teacher told me about the history of Daqian and the fall of the previous dynasty."

"Oh, how did you say it? Qin'er, come and listen." The old concubine asked with great interest.

"The teacher said that the previous dynasty was not called Dagan, but Daliang. The royal family of Daliang was surnamed Wei. At the beginning, Daliang had several virtuous kings. They managed Daliang very well, and the country was prosperous and the people were safe. But after several generations, the emperor became more and more stupid. Dao, indulging in the illusion of prosperity and peace, was drunk all day long, and the emperor of the last life was even more cruel, extravagant, levying and extorting, which caused the people to boil, "

Xiao Qin talked about the history of the previous dynasty in a serious manner, with a serious expression on his face, "At that time, the founding emperor of Daqian was still the general protecting the country in Daliang. The country took advantage of the chaos and captured several cities in a row, and then the Emperor Liang realized the crisis and released him from the prison."

"There is no one available in the court, and the people are living in dire straits. Finally, some people can't help but rise up and take the lead. Soldiers poured into the capital, forcing the palace to let Emperor Liang abdicate."

A smile appeared on the lips of the old princess: "What happened next?"

"Later, the Great General Protecting the Country succeeded. He changed the name of the country to Dagan. He simply held a grand enthronement ceremony, and he personally led the 30 army of Dagan to repel the soldiers of neighboring countries and regain the lost city. No one is dissatisfied, and what the people want, Dagan has created a foundation."

Speaking of the founding emperor, Xiao Qin's eyes were full of admiration, and he wished he could also carry a sword and straddle a horse to fight on the battlefield.

Seeing this, the old concubine's eyes dimmed. It's not that she didn't understand Xiao Qin's thoughts, but she was only such a precious son, how could she be willing to let him go to the battlefield?

A sword has no eyes, if something goes wrong, what hope does she have in this life?
So she pretended not to see Xiao Qin's longing eyes, lowered her eyes and said: "Daliang's royal family did it to themselves. In the future, you will be an important minister of the country, so don't follow in their footsteps."

The light in Xiao Qin's eyes gradually went out, "My son understands."
