After reconciliation, I was stared at by the sickly son-in-law

Chapter 217

Emperor Xiwu came down, his expression was not as serious as before, but much more kind.

He sighed: "You girl, just now I thought you had grown up and matured a lot, but now it seems that you are still the same as before, you are not afraid of heaven and earth."

Qi Shuyan was smiling, listening to Emperor Xiwu's words, he had no scruples: "Shuyan knows that His Majesty is generous, benevolent, wise and powerful, and doesn't care about the crime of disrespect, so naturally he is not afraid."

Emperor Xiwu was amused by Qi Shuyan's words, and he waved his hands helplessly: "Okay, okay, I know how wise and powerful I am, so you don't need to say any more."

His Majesty is still the same as she remembered, seemingly majestic, but actually the most narcissistic.

When she lived with His Highness Changle in Fengyi Palace, she often heard His Majesty bragging to the Empress and them.

Didn't realize that nothing had changed over the years.

Not only Qi Shuyan, but even Zi Zhu lowered her head and couldn't help sniggering.

This His Majesty Seibu is really different from what she imagined.

Sure enough, what His Highness and sister said, His Majesty is really a good person to get along with.

"Okay, now, both of you sisters, tell me what's going on, and the many incidents that happened in the northern border." Emperor Xiwu sat down on the chair next to him, waved his hand, and motioned for Qi Shu Yan and Zizhu also sat down together.

Zi Zhu was still a bit restrained, but Qi Shuyan was not polite at all, first saluted, and then sat down directly: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

As he spoke, he also pulled Zi Zhu to sit down.

There is always a gentle smile in Emperor Xiwu's eyes, which is the love of the elders for the younger, not the monarch and his ministers.

"Chang Le's words are too vague, and I'm confused. Marquis Yi'an will tell me in detail again."

In fact, through Ye Shuhuang's simple words, Emperor Xiwu was able to outline the general situation.

In addition, since the incident in the northern border.He also sent people from the imperial family's secret guards to investigate secretly. It was not really necessary for him to ask sister Qi Shuyan this time.

It's just that the emperor's suspicion and prudence must make him do so.

From a rational point of view, Emperor Xiwu believed in Qi Shuyan, but to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the matter, it was impossible for him not to have doubts about Qi Shuyan.

Leaving aside the matter of Qi Shuning's resurrection from death, let's just talk about Ye Rong, king of the northern border. He colluded with Prince Heshan of the Northern Qi Dynasty to deliberately create a plague in the northern border, causing countless innocent people in the northern border to die.

As the Marquis of Yi'an, Qi Shuyan was almost equal to the King of the Northern Territory. She really never saw the clue?
He would rather be suspicious of his emperor, but he must also know whether what sister Qi Shuyan said is true to the results of his investigation.

Qi Shuyan didn't notice the deep meaning in Emperor Xiwu's words at all, so he started talking on his own.

Zizhu, on the other hand, made some important supplements.

After a long time, Qi Shuyan's mouth was dry and he finally finished.

Emperor Xiwu nodded with a gentle tone: "I understand. As for the mysterious person you mentioned in Shuyan, you regard it as your father, I will send someone to look for it with you. You don't have to worry about it for the time being."

"Okay." Qi Shuyan stood up and bowed to Emperor Xiwu again: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Shuyan."

"There is no need to be so polite." Emperor Xiwu smiled: "Okay, it's getting late, you have traveled a long distance, rest early today, the bedroom of your sisters has been prepared by the Empress."

"In Hua'an Palace, not far from Fengyi Palace and the former Dynasty."

When His Majesty mentioned Fengyi Palace, Qi Shuyan expressed his understanding, because the Empress Dowager is His Highness's mother, and she and the Empress Empress were once very close.

But when it came to the previous dynasty, Qi Shuyan's eyes widened, and he glanced at Emperor Xiwu in disbelief.

What does His Majesty mean...

"What's the matter? Did Marquis Yi'an forget that Marquis Yi'an is going to court tomorrow morning?" Emperor Xiwu raised his eyebrows and looked at Qi Shuyan with a smile: "Could it be that Marquis Yi'an is afraid?"

Emperor Xiwu pointed it out all at once, and Qi Shuyan hurriedly refuted with guilt, "How is that possible! I'm the Marquis of Yi'an, so how can I be afraid."

This rather excited tone and behavior can be seen as a guilty conscience.

Zizhu understands her sister very well, no matter how good the royal court in the northern region is, it can't compare to the court of Tianjia.

Those who can enter the former court to discuss politics, their identities are not only the princes of the heavenly family and the nobles of the clan, but also the outstanding talents who have passed the civil and military examinations of the imperial examination and are selected step by step.

The background in this is never comparable to the royal court of the Northern Realm.

Qi Shuyan, who said one thing in the north and covered the sky with one hand, was really just a small shrimp in the court of the Tian family. It would be a lie to say that Qi Shuyan was not nervous or scared at all.

But Qi Shuyan's mouth is as hard as possible: "I just feel that I am very tired after working so hard these days. I just rest for one night and may not be able to recover. I am worried that I will lose my composure at the court meeting and lose my temper." His majesty and minister's dead mother's face."

Well, that's it.

Qi Shuyan was deceiving himself.

Zizhu stroked her forehead deeply, ah, sister, if you don't want to go to court, you have to make up a decent reason.

Toil and travel, very tiring,

What do you have to work on?
On the way from the northern border to the capital, stop and go, it is better to say that it is a tour than a tour.

It was the wind and snow that delayed me for a few days, and I was forced to stay in the inn for a few days, and I was bored for a few days.

But other times, it's very leisurely.

Anyway, she didn't feel tired at all.

How could Emperor Xiwu not know Qi Shuyan's thoughts, but he didn't make it clear, he just said gently: "If that's the case, then Marquis Yi'an should take a good rest, and it won't be too late to come to court again when he is better."

"Yeah." Qi Shuyan nodded madly, feeling relieved.

Seeing Qi Shuyan's appearance, Emperor Xiwu smiled helplessly, and shouted outside the hall: "Wang De."

After hearing this, Wang De hurried in, bent over and said, "Your Majesty."

"Wang De, take Marquis Yi'an and Princess Yongning to Hua'an Palace." Emperor Xiwu ordered.

"Yes." Wang De bowed to Qi Shuyan and Zizhu: "Marquis Yi'an, Princess Yongning, please."

"The minister (the minister's daughter) resigns."

Qi Shuyan and Zizhu followed behind Wang De, and before they had taken a few steps, they heard Emperor Xiwu's voice with a gentle smile.

"Marquis Yi'an, if you can hide for a while, you won't be able to hide for a lifetime. It's better to face it earlier."

Qi Shuyan paused, and Zizhu couldn't help laughing.

His Majesty really saw it.

"I understand." Qi Shuyan said something very lacking in confidence, then pulled Zizhu, and quickly followed Wang De, as if fleeing in despair.

As soon as the pair of sisters left, Emperor Xiwu didn't intend to read the memorial any more. He took a big step and headed towards Fengyi Palace.
