What kind of bad thoughts can Mr. Xiao have?

Chapter 96 Chapter 95

Seeing that she seemed to accept the arrangement of Emperor Yonghe, Ruan Yan couldn't help stabbing her:

"Wait? The dead are not afraid of waiting. His Highness Huaide has been here for three years. Even if it takes another ten years, it is no harm to make His Highness Huaide wait."

When it comes to Wei Huaide, not only Ruan Yan is uncharacteristically stinging, but even Wei Huai'en is not as energetic as before.Ruan Yan and Wei Huaide are not only classmates, but also good friends. Even if they know that Wei Huaien has to compromise at this time, they are not polite at all.

Wei Huai'en remained silent, no matter how careful his planning was, he could not answer the question of why he temporarily tolerated hatred for the sake of the overall situation.But she can't be impulsive, nor can she be as unscrupulous as Ruan Yan.

Under the stalemate between the two, Meng Keshu broke the deadlock.

"Your Highness, sir, the girl has something to say, can I ask the two of you for details?"

"Speak."

Ruan Yanzheng regretted breaking Wei Huai'en's heart, and hurriedly motioned to her but said it was okay.

"His Royal Highness and Mr. have mentioned before that in the future, Wei Anxing, the king of the small county, may be used as a link to stabilize the veterans who are now opposed to His Royal Highness as the prince and emperor. King Duan is indeed guilty of serious crimes, and he should be questioned, but he is still the king of the small county after all. Father.

If Prince Duan was really dealt with, how would the Prince Xiaojun deal with himself?Compared with the little county king whose father has lost his virtue and is still young, are the officials...are they more willing to fall for King Rong? "

Meng Keshu found that Wei Huai'en and Ruan Yan's eyes were fixed on her, and she was a little weak at the end, but she didn't expect that after she finished speaking, even Wei Huai'en, who was always indifferent, looked at her approvingly.

"It's just that I mentioned it once in a while, but you remember it all. It's really easy to remember, and it makes sense. What do you think?"

After Wei Huaien praised Meng Keshu, he turned his head to look at Ruan Yan.

A wise man has a lot of worries, and there is bound to be a mistake.It's not that she wants to put gold on her face, it's just that she and Ruan Yan usually claim to be exhaustive, but they are also blinded by hatred, only thinking about how to kill, forgetting the long-term plan.

Wei Huaien had to solve the royalist problem, and Emperor Yonghe was also waiting for her answer.For a woman to proclaim herself the emperor, the most difficult hurdle is not the Yonghe Emperor, but how to pass on the country and society so that the world will be stable and people's hearts will not fluctuate.

Not to mention because of Xiao Qi, she never considered the issue of heirs.Besides, if she really has an heir with someone, wouldn't the child's father's family coerce the emperor to order the ministers, and simply change the master and surname of the world?
She can be emperor, but she must let Emperor Yonghe, the princes of Yanyan, and the whole world see who the next king is.

It's also sad, the world is hard and easy, in this world, it is a great fortune to be called the emperor as a woman, no matter how talented she is, looking back at the way she came from, she may be lost at any time.

She clearly knew that she was just the beginning, and she could only slightly turn back the unfair balance in this world.With her own strength, no matter how innocent and fearless she is, she still has to compromise with the most conservative forces.

If you don't choose Wei Anxing, don't choose Rongwang, you must choose a good candidate from among the clan, and take him into the palace early to raise him.This is not a problem that can be delayed. Even after Wei Huai'en's ceremony of establishing the crown prince, a charter must be issued and explained to the world.

"Very good, Keshu, very good..."

After Ruan Yan said a few good words, she finally stopped worrying about the fact that King Duan's life could not be killed now.

"Wei Anxing is young and he is the eldest grandson of the emperor, so he is the best candidate compared to King Rong and his clan."

"Although that's what I said, don't worry, I won't compromise so easily. King Duan can't die, can't we take Wei Huairen's life?"

Wei Huaien and Ruan Yan looked at each other, Ruan Yan smiled, got up and saluted.

"Your Highness is wise. Your servant is waiting for your good news."

To keep Wei Anxing, he had to give him a legitimate identity.King Duan couldn't move his shell, but they didn't care what Wei Huairen died of.

It's like Emperor Yonghe didn't care about the ironclad evidence they handed over and insisted on keeping King Duan alive.They also want results.

As long as Wei Huairen is dead, they will have their revenge.

"Let's go, I'm going to the grand ceremony for the crown prince in a few days, if I don't make it a good one for me, I will find your Ministry of Rites unhappy."

Wei Huai'en waved his hand, always displeased with his sour appearance.

"Miss Meng, send Master Ruan off for me."

Ruan Yan and Meng Keshu left the gate of the Princess Mansion one after the other. Ruan Yan, who had been meditating all the way, suddenly turned to Meng Keshu before getting on his horse.

"What you said today is really good. You have a high level of understanding, and you can be suspicious and overthinking. I think I will have nothing to teach you soon. Do things by your Highness's side, and she appreciates you very much."

"Mr. Xie made a point."

Meng Keshu nodded, and after Ruan Yan got on his horse and left, he couldn't hold back his smile and looked in the direction of his departure.

So much hard work day and night was finally not in vain, although she knew that His Highness and Sir intended to praise her today to ease the atmosphere, but it was a hard-won affirmation.She is very happy.

But before the corners of her lips fell, she saw a familiar figure on the corner of the street.

Just as she was about to wave at him, the man turned around and disappeared.

"what happened?"

Meng Keshu muttered softly, but after all, she couldn't stay outside the mansion for long, so she had to cross the threshold and return to the mansion.

Originally, it was agreed that Li Kong would pick her up after she entered the capital with His Royal Highness Jiarou.

But as soon as he had a lot of affairs, and he also had to help His Highness Jiarou in private, with so many eyeliners around him, it would be difficult to arrange her properly for a while.

Secondly, when she was in Mengshan Academy, she began to practice with Ruan Yan under the instruction of Wei Huai'en. Not only could she learn knowledge that she couldn't learn in the Meng Mansion before, but she could also help Wei Huai'en as a half female official. She likes these days.

It’s just that it’s not convenient for Li Kong and her to meet upright, and they can only occasionally agree on a time through letters, or talk through a high courtyard wall, or just glance at each other in the street, even in his letters. A little resentment.

She also misses him very much, but soon, His Royal Highness Jiarou has repeatedly promised that after she establishes the ceremony of the crown prince, she will be able to give her an upright identity, at least she and him will not have to be separated like this.

"Perhaps he has to pass by the princess mansion every day when he leaves the Yamen, just to meet me like today?"

Although Meng Keshu knew that she was taking things for granted, seeing him, even from such a distance, made her give a small cheer while no one was seeing him on the road.

Anyway, he loved her so much, she was willing to believe that he would do such a stupid thing.

"It's coming soon, Li Kong, it's coming soon."

She patted her hot cheeks, walked briskly back to her room, and re-entered the strategies left to her by Ruan Yan and Wei Huai'en.

a few days later.

Royal Palace.

Tomorrow is the grand ceremony for the establishment of the crown prince. According to the arrangement, Wei Huai'en will make preparations in her original Qingluan Palace, and when the auspicious time comes tomorrow, she will receive the congratulations from all officials in the Chenji Palace.

The person sent by the Ministry of Rites to explain the arrangements to her was not Ruan Yan, but a servant who could make people sleepy just by talking.Wei Huai'en, who had been listening to the noise of the ministers all day, became more and more drowsy, and finally got through until the servant resigned.

"Do you remember?"

Wei Huai'en rubbed his forehead, opened the notebook left by the waiter, and looked at Shui Jing and Ming Feng on both sides of the waiter.

Ming Feng nodded again and again, suddenly remembered that his master had told him many times not to be too jumpy, and then lowered his head embarrassingly under the gaze of Shui Jing.

"Return to Your Highness, remember everything, and there will be no mistakes tomorrow."

Shui Jing stepped forward to take the booklet from Wei Huai'en's hand.

"The arrangement of the Ministry of Rituals has been reported to the Princess Mansion in advance, and the slaves will go through the process with the palace people later. Your Highness can rest assured."

"I knew Sister Shui Jing had already done everything properly. I knew that Ben Gong would not listen to that old man's chatter for a long time. Obviously, Ben Gong has nothing to do..."

Wei Huai'en stretched without hesitation, and even yawned, with a careless face.

"Your Highness, tomorrow is the grand ceremony after all, so you should pay more attention."

Shui Jing was helpless, but could not refute.

"Okay, let's not talk about it. Sister Shui Jing has worked hard this trip, and I will definitely let you have a good rest after tomorrow. I will go to the palace wall to breathe before returning to Qingluan Palace."

"Whether to breathe, or to wait for someone, His Highness knows in his heart."

"Yes, I just want to see him sooner, can't I?"

Wei Huai'en heard the teasing in Shui Jing's mouth, and since she was able to see her real purpose, she readily admitted it.

"Okay, why not. Your Highness, hurry up. There are servant girls and Mingfeng here. You just need to go back to Qingluan Palace to take a bath and rest early tonight. You will be busy tomorrow."

Shui Jing took away the frowning Ming Feng with a pocket book.

It's been a long summer, maybe it's because I have expectations in my heart, maybe it's because there will be a happy event tomorrow, the long palace road that Wei Huai'en hates the most seems to be shortened overnight, as if I just came out of the side hall of the Emperor Yonghe's study , has arrived under the palace wall.

After climbing up the palace wall, Wei Huai'en signaled his followers to stay at the steps and wait behind the wall alone.

Behind him is the golden roof of the Chenji Hall. The dazzling light shines brilliantly from the glazed tiles in all directions, making Wei Huai'en's figure unclear in the golden light.

Anyway, no one would dare to stare at the heights of the palace all the time.

A black cloud drifted in from the gate of the imperial city, and knights continued to scatter in the streets and alleys along the way. In the end, only a flying horse was driven by a masked man with a straight back on the horse, and crossed the long street. Come straight to the palace.

At the dismounting place tens of feet away from the palace city, a palace servant wearing a red inner suit had heard the news. After the knight reined in his horse, he stepped forward and nodded, not knowing what to say.

The knight was obviously very dissatisfied with being stopped by the winking guy, because Wei Huai'en soon saw that the servant in red stepped aside.

"It's really impressive."

Wei Huai'en watched him get off the horse gracefully, even shaking his cloak freely, as if he hadn't collapsed from exhaustion from the long-distance running.

He is now in an outstanding position, and no one needs to make him salute on the way to the palace, so he walks along the royal road with his head held high, getting closer and closer to her.

The natural and unrestrained gestures reminded Wei Huai'en of the day when Jinshi admitted to the palace to thank him most proudly.

Even if he was wearing the highest-level inner servants embroidered with dark gold, he, who was tall and leggy and handsome, could still wear a demeanor far better than those of the previous court.

Seeing the beauty from afar, Wei Huai'en only felt that the gloom of dealing with the courtiers because of the reform all day had dissipated.

Or maybe it was because the person she could rely on came back, so she didn't need to put on any airs of a princess, she was so lazy that she didn't even want to stand, and leaned against the palace wall without disgust.

He walks beautifully, but he is a little slow.

Xiao Qi had already seen this blush standing on the palace wall. Since he entered Beijing, he had always set his sights on the palace, hoping to see her soon, but he never thought that she would be in the palace. Waiting for him on the wall.

But he also knew that she liked to watch him ride a horse, watch him walk, and watch his aura in front of outsiders.

So every move he makes will be like a rule, not only because he is an extension of her authority and cannot lose her bearing, but also because she likes it and makes her happy.

Moreover, she is about to become a proper crown prince, so he has to be more cautious and diligent, how can he dare to rush around the palace because of his eagerness?

Xiao Qi was afraid that the closer he got to her, the more he would lose control of his desire to run towards her, so he kept staring straight ahead, and finally passed the city gate and was about to reach the stairs, he couldn't hold back Stop thinking, looked up.

She sat at the end of the stairs, looking at him with a smile.

The palace people consciously stood on both sides of the stairs to make room, Xiao Qi was stunned for a moment, and then rushed up the high palace wall from the steps in a few panicked steps.

When he was still a few steps away, he stopped and knelt down on the steps to salute.

"came back."

Her voice sounded a little tired, Xiao Qi couldn't help but blame himself, blamed himself for not being immersed in the joy of being watched by her, delaying time in vain, making her wait for him for so long.

"Yes, all the errands ordered by His Highness have been completed, this is..."

He straightened up, and lowered his eyes to report to her who was sitting on the high steps.

There were so many people, so he didn't go into too much detail, but put his hand into his sleeve pocket, and there were details inside to show her.

But the red in front of his eyes floated closer, and the fragrance enveloped him from top to bottom.She stood up and rushed forward, squatting slightly to hug his neck, and squeezed her soft body into his arms, making him suffocate, and hugged her horizontally without thinking.

"Where did you learn the stink, and you still talk nonsense if you have a book. I'm tired, let's go back."

She wasn't worried that he wouldn't be able to catch her, even if he was kneeling, even if there were a few steps away, he would still let her fall into his arms.

He slowly carried her down the steps, and walked slowly towards her bedroom.

His princess leaned on his shoulder, squinting her apricot eyes, muttering in a voice that only he could hear how much she didn't want to deal with those old-fashioned things, how many plans she had arranged, and the royal chef's The seasonal dishes are good, he must like them...

and also.

"Xiao Qi, I miss you so much."
