Chapter 110 The Two Are Alone
Yan Qing'an has never wanted anything since he was a child. He clearly knows that if he gets something that doesn't belong to him, even if he gets it, it's only for a short moment.

He thought more than once that he shouldn't want to thank Chen, maybe Xie Chen's kindness to him was also due to his mother's sake, and he was thinking too much.

But it would be nice if feelings could be easily controlled like other things. Even if Yan Qing'an knew Xie Chen's affection for Gu Hengyu, he still couldn't help but hope that he would have a chance.

There was a difference of a few days between realizing my affection for Xie Chen and discovering the difference between Xie Chen and Gu Hengyu.

And in the past half a month, he had countless opportunities to get close to Xie Chen, but he didn't go, and used the imperial government to numb his heart in the imperial study and the East Palace.

But today he was impulsive, he couldn't hold back and went to find her, and lured her into the palace in order to stay with her for a while.

I thought I would have time to be alone with her for a while, but I never thought that when Gu Hengyu appeared, she would no longer see herself, and her eyes would follow other people's figures.

Maybe it's time for him to give up his own light.

Xie Chen waited for a quarter of an hour before Gu Hengyu came out.

Seeing that Xie Chen was waiting for him, the expression on Gu Hengyu's face was a little gentler than before.

"Let's go." Gu Hengyu said to Xie Chen.

Xie Chen stood still, looking up at Gu Hengyu.

Xie Chen entered the palace today in Yan Qing'an's carriage, and just now he persuaded Yan Qing'an to leave, there is no one here who can take him back to the prime minister's mansion.

Looking at Xie Chen's appearance, Gu Hengyu knew that she had misunderstood his words.

Not to let her go, but to let her follow him, and he will send her back home.

"Follow me." Gu Hengyu restrained the corners of his mouth from rising, and explained to Xie Chen in the most concise words.

Xie Chen nodded and followed in small steps.

Gu Hengyu turned around and walked in front, raised slightly where Xie Chen couldn't see, her silly look was a bit cute.

When they got to the carriage, Gu Hengyu stood sideways and motioned for Xie Chen to go first.

Xie Chen sat in the middle of the carriage, Gu Hengyu came up and sat on the side, those who didn't know thought Xie Chen was the owner of the carriage.

In comparison, Gu Hengyu's carriage was more luxurious than the prince's.

The carriage is all made of high-quality red sandalwood, the cushions are also high-quality brocade embroidered with gold thread, and the azure tea set is also a tribute from other countries, which is rarely seen in the palace.

The two sat together, but neither spoke.

Xie Chen raised his eyes to peek at Gu Hengyu's expression but was caught by Gu Hengyu.

"Don't you have anything to say to me?" Xie Chen asked pre-emptively without being embarrassed by being caught.

As soon as these words came out, Gu Hengyu seemed to be laughed out of anger, pointing at himself and asking: "Me?"

He glanced at Xie Chen and said, "What? Let me explain to you why you entered the palace?"

What Xie Chen was afraid of was that Gu Hengyu would not speak. Now that Gu Hengyu has spoken, the stone in her heart has also dropped, so she was happy to joke with him, nodded and said, "Well, let's talk."

"I think you will be interested in the transfer of officials from the DPRK and China." Gu Hengyu said lightly.

Coincidentally, today's matter is about Fang Zhishu, because of his relationship with Cheng Ying, the old general and members of Fang's family wrote to recommend him to the Ministry of Punishment.

Now, with the efforts of Gu Hengyu and Shen Yuzhi, although Dali Temple has gradually become less restricted by the Ministry of Punishment, it still cannot be completely separated after all.

Besides, what they asked for for Fang Zhishu was not a small official position. The emperor couldn't make up his mind, so he summoned Gu Hengyu, wanting to ask him what he thought.

When Xie Chen heard Gu Hengyu say that he would be curious about this matter, he was puzzled.

"North Korean officials?" Xie Chen asked, she was not familiar with North Korean officials.

Gu Hengyu looked at her and nodded, prompting: "Fang Zhishu."

Xie Chen understood in an instant, thinking that Fang Zhishu had reached the age to become an official, and it was much easier for the children of court officials to become officials than the children of ordinary people.

"Where is he going?" Xie Chen asked.

Thinking about her previous life, Fang Zhishu should be among the six volumes, but she didn't know exactly where.

Gu Hengyu: "He originally wanted to go to the Ministry of Punishment, but now the emperor wants him to go to the Ministry of Household Affairs."

The household department is also a good job, it is easier than the criminal department but it can also exercise ability, and the household department is also short of people, so it is just right for Fang Zhishu to be on top.

Hearing this, Xie Chen also understood what Fang Zhishu meant. Among the six departments, the Criminal Department was the closest to Dali Temple. Among other things, he could at least communicate with Shen Yuzhi.

If one is not careful, maybe Fang Zhishu will use the name of his official position to cause trouble for Shen Yuzhi and the others.

But now that he has gone to the Ministry of Household Affairs, although he has a lot of power, it is difficult to communicate with Gu Hengyu and Shen Yuzhi.

In short, what is out of sight is pure in mind, Xie Chen seemed to be very satisfied with the result and nodded.

After seeing it, Gu Hengyu said to Xie Chen, "Is it time for you now?"

Xie Chen realized from his thoughts that he could not escape the fate of explaining.

But she didn't do anything wrong today, and she didn't know where her guilt came from.

Is it wrong for her to walk alone with the prince's brother?This is too outrageous.

But thinking about Gu Hengyu, he has never been that close to other women before.

Thinking of this, Xie Chen blamed himself in his heart for why he wanted to compare with Gu Hengyu, and said: "Today I came to see the empress, it was getting late, and it was the empress who asked the prince brother to send me off."

Xie Chen felt that he was telling the truth, and he had nothing to feel guilty about, so he raised his head and met Gu Hengyu's eyes, without dodging.

Gu Hengyu naturally believed in Xie Chen, he felt that Xie Chen's kindness to Yan Qing'an was a bit special, but it seemed that it had nothing to do with the relationship between men and women.

But Yan Qing'an was different, he looked at Xie Chen just like himself, absolutely innocent.

It is also because of this that Gu Hengyu felt a little annoyed when he saw it tonight.

"Why don't you stay in the palace so late?" Gu Hengyu asked.

In this way, Yan Qing'an would not be able to see her off, and when he saw Yan Qing'an's eyes looking at Xie Chen, he felt restless in his heart.

Xie Chen didn't know Gu Hengyu's careful thinking, but when he felt that it was getting late and it was troublesome to go back home and it was not safe, he explained: "If I stay in the palace for one night today, I won't be able to leave for a few days."

Although he didn't specifically say what the reason was, how could Gu Hengyu not understand, nodded and said, "You are very thoughtful."

Xie Chen smiled and said, "Of course, there are still seven or eight days before the autumn hunting, even if I want to see my aunt, I can't miss these few days."

Besides, he managed to get rid of Xie Wan and Aunt Jing, and he could live a leisurely life in the prime minister's mansion, so how could he take the initiative to enter the big dye vat in the palace and cause trouble for himself.

Gu Hengyu nodded. Autumn hunting is a tradition of Yanzhao Kingdom's dynasties. It is held every three years, and the time ranges from half a month to one month. All the respectable people in the capital are vying to accompany them.
