Chapter 6 Awakened
There must be something urgent in the court.

Bai Jiuxiao got up immediately: "I see, Mr. Xie Ning."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Ning Shiqian's response, he put the opera into his sleeve, left the table and strode out of the private room.

Remembering that she was dressed as a woman, she couldn't let Lu Chengxi see that she didn't take the passenger stairs, but dodged and quickly descended from the side stairs leading to the backyard.

In the private room, Ning Shiqian was a little confused.

So, it was awakened by him?
It seems that he is not too stupid.

Thinking of the dream he had, Ning Shiqian breathed a sigh of relief, finally he didn't have to be pestered by her anymore.

Just as he was about to pick up his steps and leave, Xiao Er came in with two plates of pastries.

Seeing that there was no one else in the private room, Xiao Er was puzzled: "Fourth Young Master, where is that girl?"

"gone."

"Going away?" Xiaoer was astonished, and said in shock: "She didn't pay for the tea money or Baoya room."

Ning Shiqian: "."

He also said that he was rich, a joke.

After Bai Jiuxiao changed his clothes and returned to the mansion, Tong Quan limped up to meet him.

"The lord is back. Deputy Envoy Lu went to Niannan Liyuan to look for the lord. Has the lord met him?"

Bai Jiuxiao's eyes narrowed slightly: "Why are you looking for me?"

"Just now Eunuch Man came and said that the emperor let the prince into the palace." Tong Quan replied respectfully.

Sure enough, something happened in the court.

Bai Jiuxiao immediately turned around and walked out again. After taking two steps, he stopped and turned around: "Why did you go to Niannan Liyuan to find the king?"

She went to Liyuan, but she didn't tell anyone.

"Returning to the prince, Deputy Envoy Lu said that he saw the prince reading a playbook of Nian Liyuan earlier, and thought that the prince might have gone to see a play there, so he wanted to go and look for it."

It turned out to be the case.

Bai Jiuxiao didn't make a sound, and strode away.

Tong Quan remembered another thing, and followed closely: "By the way, my lord, I have finished parading that woman's dead body through the streets as my lord ordered."

Walking into the imperial study, Bai Jiuxiao saw that besides her emperor's younger brother, Emperor Wen, there was another person in the study.

Taishi Zhu Jin.

Zhu Jinben was the grand master of the former dynasty.

The so-called one emperor and one courtier, after Emperor Wen ascended the throne, under Bai Jiuxiao's iron and blood pressure, many former officials were abolished, but Zhu Jin has always held a high position.

In addition to the fact that the three generations of the Zhu family were all ministers of the Great Zhao, with huge power and intertwined roots, and because when Emperor Wen succeeded to the throne, many ministers opposed him on the grounds that he was too young and had mediocre qualifications. Zhu Jin took the initiative to support, which saved a lot of trouble for Emperor Wen, so he was valued by Emperor Wen and continued to serve as the grand master.

Because of this, Zhu Jinping's behavior is quite high-profile.

Many officials in the court hated Bai Jiuxiao for taking over the political power, but most of them only dared to secretly hate him, not daring to make it clear. Zhu Jin was the only one who dared to confront Bai Jiuxiao openly and tit for tat.

Zhu Jin provoked the relationship between Emperor Wen and Bai Jiuxiao several times, and repeatedly advocated that Emperor Wen take power and govern in person.

Seeing Zhu Jin there, Bai Jiuxiao's lips curled coldly, without even looking at him, he went straight forward and bowed slightly to the young emperor sitting behind the dragon table.

"I don't know why the emperor summoned his ministers?"

"I heard that an assassin entered the Nine Princes' Mansion to assassinate, are you okay?" Looking at Bai Jiuxiao, Emperor Wen's childish face was full of concern.

Bai Jiuxiao was expressionless: "Thank you, the emperor, for your concern. The minister is fine, and the assassin is dead."

"Can you find out who did it?" Emperor Wen asked.

"Go back to the emperor, no."

Zhu Jin, who was silent at the side, let out a soft snort when he heard the words.

"Since we haven't found out who it is, what is the meaning of the Ninth Prince's order to have the murderer's body parked at the gate of my grand master's mansion?"

Only then did Bai Jiuxiao turn his eyes, and squinted at him: "What else is there? Is it still there?"

"It's not there now, but it stopped at the gate of my grand master's mansion for a long time."

"Oh, that might be because their hands were sore, they stopped to take a breath, unfortunately they were just at the gate of your mansion." Bai Jiuxiao wrote lightly.

"Unfortunately?" Zhu Jin snorted coldly: "All the civil and military gates of the Manchu Dynasty stopped. Are there so many unlucky ones? I think it's too coincidental, right?"

"Since everyone stopped in front of the civil and military gates of the Manchu Dynasty, why did Taishi Zhu react so strongly?" Bai Jiuxiao answered quickly, turned around slowly, and faced him directly.

Zhu Jin was at a loss for words for a while, and said with a pale face, "They, they dare not speak out."

"Are they daring to speak out, or did the Grand Master do something with a guilty conscience and hurriedly checked in?" Bai Jiuxiao interrupted his words in a deep voice, and took a step closer.

Zhu Jin was a little intimidated by her aura, and instinctively took a step back.

Realizing his actions, he was even more annoyed and anxious: "Ninth Prince, don't spit blood!"

"Okay." Emperor Wen frowned.

Although he was no stranger to the tension between the two, he still had some headaches.

"I will send someone to investigate this matter, and I will definitely find out the people behind the scenes. I have called you here, and there is one more thing."

Only then did Bai Jiuxiao turn around and face Emperor Wen.

"I have received news that the genius doctor Siya has appeared in Yunlai County. I want you to go to Yunlai, find this person and invite him here. The mother and concubine have been lying in the ice coffin for three years. I am worried that no matter how long it takes, The less hope of resurrection." The young emperor's face was full of solemnity.

Bai Jiuxiao frowned.

It turned out that they wanted to resurrect their mother who had passed away for three years.

"Mother and concubine have passed away. Although Siya is hailed as a miracle doctor, he is a doctor after all, not a god. He cannot bring the dead back to life."

"No, everyone in the world says he can do it." Emperor Wen said earnestly.

"That's an exaggeration of the world. What he saved was only the dying, not the dead." Bai Jiuxiao was also affirmative.

"So, the Ninth Prince is not willing to do this filial piety?" Zhu Jin beside him made a strange sound.

Bai Jiuxiao reacted quickly, snorted coldly, and turned to look at him: "So, Taishi Zhu and the emperor suggested that this king should go?"

Zhu Jin's expression froze, and he did not deny it: "Everyone knows that Siya is hard to find and invite, and ordinary people may not be able to achieve this. The Ninth Prince's literary and military strategy is unmatched by Dazhao, and he will definitely be able to take on this important task. "

Bai Jiuxiao chuckled, how could he not know the old man's real intentions.

Isn't it just looking for an opportunity to let her leave Beijing and give her emperor's younger brother a chance to govern alone.

"No." Bai Jiuxiao refused flatly.

"The Ninth Prince is resisting the decree." Zhu Jin reminded.

Bai Jiuxiao didn't take it seriously at all, didn't even look at him, and said to Emperor Wen: "No one in this world can bring the dead back to life, neither can Siya."

Before Emperor Wen could say anything, Zhu Jin answered again: "My lord is not Si Ya, how do you know he can't?"

"Birth, old age, sickness and death are the norms of ethics. Isn't it the most basic to know this? Just like we all know that mad dogs can bite people, does Master Zhu have to be a mad dog to know that it can bite people?" Bai Jiuxiao tilted his head, Zhuo Zhuo asked him.

Zhu Jin: "."

Emperor Wen: "."

With this logic, Zhu Jin was speechless, his face turning blue and white.

"Ninth brother." Emperor Wen said softly, his eyes were earnest.
