Chapter 197 Mother and Daughter Meeting
Seeing Yan Xiaoyi's words, they had no choice but to leave. However, one person did not leave. Instead, he walked out of the darkness. Yan Xiaoyi, who was about to go back to his room, suddenly stopped.

"Eunuch Hong, I don't know why you came to my place today?" Yan Xiaoyi said

"Commander Yan, do you really not know what the old slave is doing? You should know that you are no match for the old slave. So, what did Fan Xian say?" Hong Sixiang asked.

"Haha, it seems that His Majesty is really anxious. Anyway, in that case, then Eunuch Hong, come with me, and let's go inside and talk." Yan Xiaoyi said

Hong Sixiang didn't say anything after hearing this, but followed Yan Xiaoyi directly into the study.

"Eunuch Hong, I didn't have the nerve to tell you when we were outside just now. In fact, I really can't tell you what Fan Xian said because my brother told me that only the eldest princess can decide whether to tell you or not." Yan Xiaoyi didn't talk nonsense. But directly

"Huh? Commander Yan, are you saying that what Fan Xian brought back was actually for the eldest princess?" Hong Sixiang understood the key to this immediately.

"Yes, it is indeed the case. Fan Xian told me that because he has an important mission this time, he cannot go directly to see the eldest princess."

"But he asked me to express one thing, that is, what my brother brought back has nothing to do with his mission." Yan Xiaoyi said

"Okay, I understand. I will bring Commander Yan's words to His Majesty intact. I will take my leave first." After hearing this, Hong Sixiang bowed his hands and exited the study.

Naturally, Yan Xiaoyi didn't care about him, so he wanted to send him off. After sending Hong Sixiang away, he completely relaxed. He knew about this matter, and now he has fooled it.

As for whether he can survive in the end, it depends on His Highness. In fact, if he had other options, he would not involve His Highness.

But there was no way, he was now the target of public criticism, and he had to tell the eldest princess what had happened, so he could only say this to Hong Sixiang.

After Hong Sixiang returned to the palace, he directly told Emperor Qing about the matter. After hearing this, Emperor Qing fell into deep thought and never spoke, and Hong Sixiang naturally did not speak either.

At this time, Emperor Qing vaguely guessed something. This sentence should be related to Northern Qi. He did not suspect that Yan Xiaoyi had lied to him because Yan Xiaoyi mentioned Li Yunrui.

Since he mentioned Li Yunrui, what he said is true. After all, compared to Yan Que, Yan Xiaoyi Caishi is the one who is more loyal to Li Yunrui.

And because Li Yunrui is involved, it must be something related to Li Yunrui without threatening Li Yunrui's safety, and this kind of thing can only happen in Northern Qi.

After figuring this out, Emperor Qing felt relieved, but at the same time a little disappointed, because this was not the answer he wanted. Although it was an unexpected gain, he was not very happy.

Only then did he remember that Hong Sixiang was still here, so he quickly came to his senses and waved his hand directly. Seeing this, Hong Sixiang bowed directly and then exited the imperial study room.

At this time, Fan Xian, after returning home, was inevitably called to the study by his father. Fan Xian entered the study generously, with an unusually calm expression.

"You feel very comfortable. Do you know that the whole capital is in turmoil today because of you?" Fan Jian said directly when he saw his son.
"Haha, dad, actually I didn't know that at first, but I knew it after I came out of Yan's house. It was not a lively place outside Yan's house at that time." Fan Xian said
"Haha, it's good for you to know, Xian'er, you made a big fuss this time. I know it's not convenient for you to talk about the specific things. I just ask you, does it have anything to do with the temple?" Fan Jian said seriously

"Don't worry, Dad, it has nothing to do with the temple. If it had anything to do with the temple, I wouldn't dare to do this if you gave me the courage, right?" Fan Xian said immediately
"Well, that's good, that's good. Okay, you go back and have a rest. Don't go out these days. Who said this isn't over yet? You should avoid the limelight first." Fan Jiandao
"Well, I understand. Don't worry, I promise not to go anywhere these days." Fan Xian said
Fan Jian did not speak after hearing this, but nodded. Seeing this, Fan Xian knew it was time to leave, so he bowed and exited the study.

Fan Jian's expression became a little weird after his son left, because he always felt that his son was a little weird when he came back this time, but he couldn't explain what was weird.

Before, he thought it was because of something in his heart, but just now he discovered that it was not the case. His son seemed to be hiding something in his heart, but what was it?

At this time, Fan Xian didn't know that he had been suspected by his father. At this time, he was busy cleaning the house. After all, he hadn't been back for so long, and there was something wrong in this house.

Yesterday I was worried about the business of today. Now that I am done with my work, I naturally have to deal with it myself.

The next day soon came. Yan Xiaoyi entered the palace as usual, and then went directly to Guangxin Palace without any hesitation.

Li Yunrui was a little surprised to see Yan Xiaoyi. After all, he shouldn't have come at this time. He had just taken up the job.

"Xiao Yi, what happened? I heard that Fan Xian went to see you yesterday?" Li Yunrui asked

"Yes, Your Highness, Fan Xian said yesterday that my second brother asked him to bring something to me, but in fact, that is not the case. Fan Xian told me yesterday..." Yan Xiaoyi said slowly.
"Huh? Cooperation? Xiao Yi, you met with him yesterday, how trustworthy do you think he is?" After hearing this, Li Yunrui thought for a while before saying

"Your Highness, according to my observation yesterday, what he said should be true. Although I don't know why he wanted to cooperate, but I can't tell anything about his attitude." Yan Xiaoyi said

After hearing this, Li Yunrui fell into deep thought again. Her mind kept thinking about the feasibility of cooperation and Fan Xian's purpose of doing this.

At this moment, she suddenly remembered that Fan Xian knew about Concubine Yigui's visit to her, or was it the Liu family who persuaded Fan Xian?
Li Yunrui nodded when she thought of this, that should be it, otherwise she couldn't figure out why Fan Xian wanted to cooperate with her this time.

"Your Highness, there are two more troubles with this matter. One is that you need to make a good deal with the princess to avoid anything going wrong with my second brother."

"Also, Your Majesty, you have to think about how to deal with it. After all, His Majesty sent out Hong Sixiang yesterday. I guess Eunuch Hou will arrive as soon as I leave you." Yan Xiaoyi said

"Well, this is indeed a problem, but you don't have to worry. I have already thought of a way. Okay, you have been here for a long time. His Majesty will become suspicious after a long time," Li Yunrui said.

"It's Your Highness, I'll take my leave now." Yan Xiaoyi bowed directly after hearing this, then turned and left Guangxin Palace. After he left, Li Yunrui also started to pack up.Because if she guessed correctly, Eunuch Hou would probably come soon, and the fact was not beyond her expectation. Eunuch Hou came over just after she had finished packing.

Li Yunrui did not waste time, but followed Eunuch Hou directly to the imperial study. When Emperor Qing saw Li Yunrui, he said directly, "You should know why I asked you to come, right?"

"Your Majesty, I don't know." After hearing this, Li Yunrui naturally couldn't let Emperor Qing get his wish.

"I don't know? I don't know. I'm here to ask you, what exactly did Yan Que ask Fan Xian to bring back? You must never tell me that you don't know!" Emperor Qing asked directly.

"It turns out that Your Majesty wants to ask this. Xiao Que indeed has something to bring back. However, my sister thinks that if you want to know, it would be better to ask Xiao Que in person." Li Yunrui said.

"Huh? Did you hear that right? You want me to ask Yan Que directly? Are you sure?" Emperor Qing asked

"Your Majesty, this is not my sister's original intention. This is Xiaoque's intention. So, of course, if your majesty must know, my sister can say it now." Li Yunrui said with an embarrassed look on his face after hearing this.

"Haha, no need. Since Grandmaster Yan has made an explanation, why would I embarrass you? Okay, let's go down. This matter ends here." Emperor Qing said with a smile.

"Yes, my dear sister, please retire." After hearing this, Li Yunrui naturally withdrew respectfully.

After Li Yunrui left, Emperor Qing's face became gloomy. After all, Li Yunrui just didn't save any face for him, so how could he not be angry?
The reason why he chose to endure it just now was because he knew that Li Yunrui just wanted to make him angry. If he was really angry, then Li Yunrui's wish would be fulfilled.

Another reason was that he had some guesses about what Yan Que brought back. He knew that these words had nothing to do with the temple, so he was not so anxious.

Li Yunrui didn't know this. She only thought that she had won this round, so she was in a good mood at this time, but she did not get carried away.

After returning to Guangxin Palace, she quickly sent people to find her daughter. After all, the biggest loophole in the whole matter had to be filled by her daughter, and this lesson could not be delayed.

As time goes by, it would be bad if His Majesty has other thoughts.

And when Wan'er learned that her mother was looking for her, she didn't delay and followed the female officer directly to the palace, and then directly to Guangxin Palace.

"Wan'er, you're here. Sit down quickly. Actually, I asked you to come here today. I have something to discuss with you. Fan Xian found Xiao Yi after he came back this time."

"So we have a problem right now. You need to remind Xiaoque about this matter after he returns to Beijing. Don't forget it, otherwise big problems will arise." Li Yunrui instructed.

"Um, mother, why would such a good Fan Xian want to cooperate? There can't be any fraud here, I think we should be cautious and don't fall into the trap." Wan'er said worriedly
"Don't worry, mother, I know what to do. It's impossible to deceive me with Fan Xian's little deeds. The key now is what reason to use." Li Yunrui said.

"Mother, this depends on you. I don't have any ideas." Wan'er said helplessly.

"I know, I know, don't be anxious. In fact, I have already thought of a reason. Please listen to me and tell you slowly..." Li Yunrui said.

"Mother, is this okay? Will Your Majesty blame you?" Wan'er said
"Wan'er, don't worry about this. Don't forget that Xiao Que is a master. It's natural that this matter cannot be placed on others, but if Xiao Que is the case, there will be no problem." Li Yunrui said.

"I think so, mother. Anyway, there is still some time before my husband returns to Beijing. I will go back and think about it first. If this method works, then use this one. If it doesn't work, then let's talk about it." Wan'er said
"Well, that's fine. After all, this matter is not a trivial matter. It really should be considered carefully. Then you should go back and think about it carefully, and then tell me after you have thought about it." Li Yunrui said

"Well, I know mother. If I don't have anything else to do, I'll go back first." Wan'er said
Looking at his daughter's leaving figure, Li Yunrui felt somewhat uncomfortable. After all, his daughter really valued Yan Que too much, but how about her mother?
Although she knew very well in her heart that if she met a man like Yan Que, she would be the same as her daughter, but it was easy to understand when this happened to others.

But if you put it on yourself, that's a different matter. After all, the big principles are all told to others. If you really put it on yourself, you have to weigh the pros and cons, not some bullshit.

At this time, Wan'er didn't know that her mother had thought so much and had opinions about herself. She didn't have the heart to think about it now. She was busy thinking of countermeasures now.

In fact, she knew in her heart that it was just to expand the business between the inner treasury and Beiqi, no, it was to let her mother set up a separate business. It would be extremely dangerous to do this kind of thing to other people.

But if you put it on your husband-in-law, then it's a different matter. But doing this, or this reason is very stupid, and it doesn't make sense at all.

After all, my husband-in-law gets a share of the annual income from the inner treasury, and the share is not low. It can be said that they are not short of money at all.

Since there is no shortage of money at all, wouldn't this reason be false? Moreover, if it was really because of this, why would there be any need for Fan Xian to pass on the message?Isn't that unnecessary?

Faced with this unreliable thing, Wan'er was very embarrassed for a while. Finally, she came up with a way, which was to find an acquaintance to inquire about the situation.

Thinking of this, she immediately sent her and her maid to Fan's house. Yes, it was Fan's house.

During the period when Yan Que left Beijing, the relationship between Wan'er and Ruoruo improved by leaps and bounds. One of them was a fan meeting an idol, and the other was deliberately getting closer.

This result is naturally self-evident. With the rapid warming of their relationship, the two of them are now like sisters. This is because Yan Que doesn't know about it. Yan Que will be very surprised if he knows about it.

If Ruoruo heard that Wan'er came to see her, she naturally did not doubt it. After all, this kind of thing had happened many times before. She didn't care and followed the maid to the Hou Mansion.
