Chapter 153: Demoted from Beijing
Xie Changyuan really stood there without moving.

However, Xie Zhaozhao didn't have the heart to attack Fifth Brother's handsome face.

The two brothers and sisters laughed and laughed for a while. Xie Changyuan coughed lightly and said, "Let's get down to business - Yun Qi has asked you to meet at Miaoshan Hall later in the evening."

"Yes." Xie Zhaozhao nodded, "I just want to see him, so I'd like to trouble Fifth Brother to go over and send me a message."

"It doesn't matter."

Xie Changyuan opened the fan with a swish and said, "You remember that the good thing about Fifth Brother is that when his mother picks trouble with me, she can always say nice things to Fifth Brother."

"Row."

Xie Zhaozhao smiled and said: "Definitely."

Xie Changyuan saw her confident look, but he couldn't help but remind her: "But be mentally prepared, I'm afraid they will ask you to accuse me."

"I understand."

Xie Zhaozhao nodded again.

She thought it was probably just to take the blame.

She really didn't expect that others would suspect him. This was an accident.

When the time comes, just apologize sincerely and coax him.

After Xie Changyuan left, Xie Zhaozhao had his meal and then went to Mr. Miao's place to make bronze figures.

……

In the imperial study, Emperor Xuanwu sipped tea leisurely.

The eunuch set up a long table for Yun Qi not far from him, and placed many memorials from various ministries on it for Yun Qi to review and review.

If something important happens, Yun Qi will discuss it with him.

For the past few months, both grandfather and grandson have been in this state.

Eunuch Liu thought to himself that when Emperor Xuanwu and his prince were brought together, they were almost in the same state.

Although Yun Qi holds the title of His Royal Highness Prince Dingxi now, he is still the emperor's eldest grandson and the emperor's favorite direct grandson.

Look at this situation, it won't be long before the emperor's eldest grandson will become the emperor's grandson, and become a person who is inferior to tens of thousands of people in the Great Qin Dynasty in the future.

"Ah Qi, the emperor recently listened to a new play called Farewell My Concubine." Emperor Xuanwu asked lightly: "Have you heard of it?"

"No."

Yun Qi was in the process of approving a memorial. He kept working and didn't raise his head, but he didn't leave any reply. "But this play has become very famous recently. Others have told me about it."

"It's about Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, and Yu Ji, who are in love with each other. They don't love the country but love the beauty."

"Well, that's it." Emperor Xuanwu slowly twirled the teacup with his fingers, "Do you think that a king who lost his kingdom for a beauty, was forced to be ashamed to see Jiangdong's elders, and committed suicide in defeat, can such a king be called a king?"

"Of course."

Yun Qi said: "According to what is said in the play, his military ability is unmatched by anyone, and he has a large number of troops, and his subordinates surrender. If he had not been plotted by others, he should not have ended up committing suicide."

"We should not attribute defeat and suicide to the beauty of the world. It is the time and destiny."

(The play "Farewell My Concubine" here was written by the character Xie Jiajia in the book and sung by the troupe. The characters in the book do not have a comprehensive understanding of the Overlord and the Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, so please don't be too picky!!!)
Emperor Xuanwu asked again: "Do you believe in fate?"

"Believe it or not believe it." Yun Qi finished correcting the memorial in his hand, took another one, read it carefully, and said: "Destiny is very elusive. If you believe it, there is it, but if you don't believe it, there is none."

"But whether you believe it or not, I am not someone who gives up easily."

He raised his eyes and glanced at Emperor Xuanwu, "If you don't fight, how do you know you won't get what you want?"

"Stinky boy!"

Emperor Xuanwu smiled and glared at Yun Qi: "You are too lazy to cover yourself up. If you don't want to admit defeat, go against grandpa!"

Yun Qi smiled and said: "Grandpa Huang, don't accuse me wrongly. When did I go against you?"

"Why are you pretending to be confused? In the past, you were fooling around for Xie Zhaozhao, but now you have gone too far and trampled others to the point of no return. Is it worth it for you to spend so much effort on a woman?"

"Grandpa Huang once said to me before that if you fight for power and profit for women, you can get twice the result with half the effort." Yun Qi said lightly.

"Is that what I said?" "That's what Grandpa Huang said."

Emperor Xuanwu snorted coldly and threw the teacup directly on the table, with a few drops of unfinished tea spilling out.

It was clear that he was mocking the commander-in-chief of Luzhou for losing the city for a beautiful concubine, which was really stupid.

Yun Qi returned the words and used them to choke him.

Eunuch Liu and the little eunuch who was serving him were so frightened that they fell to their knees.

Yun Qi stood up from the table, took the tea cup that Emperor Xuanwu had thrown away, and handed it to Eunuch Liu: "Grandpa Liu doesn't like drinking this tea. Go get another one."

"This, yes, yes..." Eunuch Liu looked at Emperor Xuanwu carefully, stood up and retreated while holding the tea.

Emperor Xuanwu looked at Yun Qi angrily and cursed "presumptuous".

But there is neither anger nor majesty.

Like an elder scolding a junior for their misbehavior.

Yun Qi said with a smile: "The day before yesterday, when Mr. Doctor Gui was treating my father, he said that anger hurts the liver. If you want to maintain your health, you have to be calm and stay in a good mood. It's okay for the emperor to scold me when he is angry. Just don't hold back your anger."

Emperor Xuanwu glanced at him indifferently and looked away: "I plan to demote the Xie family out of the capital."

……

Mr. Miao is still not here today.

But this didn't affect anything. Xie Zhaozhao stayed in bed all afternoon, and when the sun was setting, he quietly left the house with his red sleeves on.

Before the master and servant arrived at the Miaoshan Hall, they went to South Street to buy chestnuts and other snacks as usual.

By the time we arrived at Miaoshan Hall, it was already dark.

It's almost winter now, and it's going to be very cold after the sun goes down.

When Xie Zhaozhao got out of the carriage, the cold wind hit his face and he took a breath of cold air.

"Miss."

The waiter from Miaoshan Hall came out to welcome him and said in a low voice: "My master has arrived and has been waiting for you for a long time."

Xie Zhaozhao was a little surprised, "Is he so early today?"

Nowadays, Yun Qi's court affairs are entangled with him. In the past, when Xie Zhaozhao came to meet up, he would have to wait for a long time before he could come back.

Xie Zhaozhao thought he would not come too early today.

"Miss, please come in." The waiter led the way for Xie Zhaozhao.

Xie Zhaozhao lifted up his skirt and hurried inside.

When they arrived at the door of the wing in the backyard of Miaoshan Hall, the waiter stepped back.

Xie Zhaozhao pushed the door open and saw Yun Qi sitting at the table, looking at the candlelight dancing on the table, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Aqi."

Xie Zhaozhao called out, stepped in, and closed the door with his backhand. When he reached Yun Qi's side, he took out the chestnuts in his arms and said, "It's still hot. Let me peel it for you."

"Don't eat."

Yun Qi didn't even look at the steaming roasted chestnuts, his eyes fixed on Xie Zhaozhao's face, "You've always wanted to leave the capital, right?"

His tone was extremely cold and contained anger.

Xie Zhaozhao paused his hand on Lizi and looked at him hesitantly: "Why did you suddenly say that? Did something unpleasant happen?"

"You tried every possible means to wait for Xie Xingchen to marry Prince Liang, and then expose the affair between Chu Nanxuan and Xie Xingchen, in order to make the eldest and second bedroom of the Xie family go their separate ways."

Yun Qi stared at Xie Zhaozhao with a cold expression and said word by word: "You think the capital is a place of right and wrong, you have to get away from the Xie family!"

"You didn't wait to follow my plan to solve Chu Nanxuan's matter because you had your own ideas from the beginning to the end. You didn't consider the matter with me at all, right?"
