Chapter 143
At the gate of the prime minister's mansion.

Gu Hengyu got out of the carriage first, then reached out to take Xie Chen.

Before Xie Chen could say goodbye to Gu Hengyu, Yun He hurried over.

There seemed to be something urgent, but Yun He didn't speak, but glanced at Xie Chen, hesitant.

Xie Chen thought it was inappropriate for him to be here, and when he was about to enter the mansion, he heard Gu Hengyu say: "It's okay, just tell me."

Xie Chen stopped and looked at Yun He.

"Master, Gao Kun... is gone." Yun He took a deep breath and said.

Xie Chen and Gu Hengyu frowned when they heard this, they have seen with their own eyes how strict the guards at Dali Temple are.

"When did you find out?" Gu Hengyu asked.

"Half a quarter of an hour ago."

It was when Gu Hengyu and the others first came out of the palace.

Now that Gao Kun is running away, they are in the light and Gao Kun is in the dark. This situation is really not good.

What's more, Nan Helin is now in Yanzhao, if he wants to help Gao Kun, it will be even more troublesome for them to find him.

The chess game that had just become clear was suddenly disturbed by something, and they had to rethink the future.

"It's okay, he won't hide forever." Xie Chen stroked Gu Hengyu's hand and said softly.

Although she was also surprised that Gao Kun was able to escape, she was not panicked by this incident.

Gao Kun bears a deep hatred and will not bear to hide. When the time comes, he will still make a comeback.

All they have to do now is wait.

Wait until the day when Gao Kun makes a move before killing everyone in one go.

It's not that Gu Hengyu is afraid, but he just feels that if these troubles are not eliminated, Xie Chen and his affairs will be delayed for a day.

Gao Kun can afford it, but he doesn't want to wait any longer, and he doesn't want anything to happen that he didn't plan.

Not wanting Xie Chen to worry about his own mood while thinking about Gao Kun's whereabouts, Gu Hengyu nodded and said, "It's okay, we'll spend time with him."

Xie Chen talked to Gu Hengyu and returned to the house, afraid that Aunt Lan's grandmother and the others would be worried about Xie Han, so she hurried over to explain.

As long as Xie Han's life is not in danger, Aunt Lan and grandmother will not support Xie Han's behavior, but they will not stop him.

But Prime Minister Xie was different, Xie Han's actions also affected him to a certain extent.

So Prime Minister Xie kept a cold face when he came back from the outside when he found out about this.

"Father." Xie Chen stepped forward to salute, and stood in front of Xie Han.

Since the incident with Aunt Jing and Xie Wan, Prime Minister Xie has always given Xie Chen a good attitude, not out of any mentality.

Even if he was angry now, when he saw Xie Chen, his expression flashed a little unnatural.

"Chen'er, get out of the way first, I have something to say to this Nizi." The first half of the sentence was understated, and the second half of the sentence mentioned Xie Han, which aggravated the tone.

Xie Chen knows Xie Han's temperament, he was not very kind to this father, but now he is still angry, if...

"Father, my daughter is also in the palace today, so just ask her if you have anything." Xie Chen stood between the two without giving up.

After saying this, he turned around and pushed Xie Han twice and said, "You are not in a good mood now, go back first."

Xie Han didn't want to always embarrass Xie Chen, but seeing Xie Chen's eyes, he was afraid that staying here would embarrass her even more, so he nodded and left first.

Prime Minister Xie didn't even look at him in anger.

Prime Minister Xie wanted to stop him, but Xie Chen was always caught between the two of them.

Really helpless, after Xie Han's back disappeared from sight, Prime Minister Xie could only ask Xie Chen: "How is the situation today? What did the emperor say about your brother?"

Princess Yongzhao is the first princess of Yanzhao, the emperor's only daughter, with a distinguished status.

If Xie Han was his direct son and had outstanding abilities, he might be able to compete, but...

But he is just a concubine, born of his aunt and not favored, how could the emperor put him in his eyes.

It would be a blessing if he were not cured of the crime of uttering wild words.

Xie Chen looked at Prime Minister Xie's frightened look, and a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes.

I don't know how such a father attracted his mother in the first place.

"Father, don't worry, the emperor just doesn't want to part with Yong Zhao, and if he is angry, he won't blame you." Xie Chen pointed out straight to the point.

Prime Minister Xie didn't notice Xie Chen's indifferent attitude. He was relieved to hear that the emperor would not blame him for his lack of parenting, and asked suspiciously: "Really? The emperor will not blame me?"

Xie Chen glanced at Prime Minister Xie, he really didn't think about Xie Han at all!

"Yes." Xie Chen affirmed.

In addition to Xie Han's matter today, there is also the matter of Gao Kun's escape from prison. Xie Chen doesn't want to stand here and waste time talking with Prime Minister Xie.

Standing here for a second longer would make her feel suffocated.

It will also let her know more about Prime Minister Xie's selfishness and indifference as a father.

"Father, my daughter is also tired today, so I will go back first." Xie Chen turned and left without waiting for Prime Minister Xie to speak.

Prime Minister Xie was still worried about his own affairs and didn't react.

I wanted to ask Xie Chen some details about the palace, but seeing Xie Chen leave in a hurry, I thought that the emperor is Xie Chen's uncle, so he must understand.

The stone in his heart fell, and although Prime Minister Xie was still angry, he was better after all, and he would not chase Xie Han into the yard to lose his temper.

Here, the emperor went to the queen's residence at night as usual.

After this period of hard work, the empress no longer treats the emperor with cold eyes as before, and sometimes loses her temper when she is unhappy.

But today is different, when the emperor came to the queen's bedroom, he was air-conditioned.

The queen pretended not to know, and stepped forward and asked, "What's the matter? Are you in a bad mood today?"

"It's fine that the princes don't let me worry about each of them, and Yong Zhao too, how could he like one..." The emperor poured out all the things in his heart when he heard the queen's question.

During the day, anger turns into anger, and when you rest, you have to deal with government affairs.

If you want to talk to someone, there is only Eunuch Li by your side.

Eunuch Li is also tactful, knowing that father and daughter have no overnight feud, naturally he is not willing to say a word about Princess Yongzhao's fault.

He only persuaded the emperor to pay attention to the dragon body.

When it's not in the Queen's Palace, wait for her to find out what's wrong with her, and use this to express her distress.

The queen sat opposite the emperor and listened carefully, as if Xie Chen and Yong Zhao had never been here during the day.

The emperor talked for too long, and felt dry mouth after speaking, so he picked up the cup and took a sip of tea to moisten his throat.

Realizing that the queen hadn't spoken yet, she put down the teacup and asked, "What do you think, queen?"

Hearing the emperor's question, the queen glanced at the emperor, got up and knelt down to him.

The emperor subconsciously stepped forward to help her up, already knowing what the queen wanted to say to him.

"It's okay, you sit down and talk." Although he didn't want to hear this, but...he still wanted to know what the queen thought.
