Chapter 530 Disgust
The next day, inside Zichen Hall.

"Your servants see the father!" Li Sujie saluted Li Chengqian.

"I heard that you returned to Chang'an yesterday, why didn't you come to see me?" Li Chengqian asked.

"Yesterday, I returned to Chang'an. It was already late at night. The curfew in Chang'an City was closed. I didn't enter the city. I just entered the city this morning."

"As soon as I entered the city, my son-in-law immediately came to see my father, and I didn't dare to delay for a moment, and asked my father to forgive me." Li Sujie said.

After hearing this, Li Chengqian felt annoyed. He knew exactly when Li Sujie entered the city, where he went, and where he stayed.

Li Sujie dared to lie in front of him, really thought he could fool me.

Li Chengqian disliked Li Sujie even more, especially because he might have something to do with Li Xiang's death.

"Since this is the case, it's no wonder you. Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty has always had a curfew system. It is normal for you to be blocked outside the city when you come back late."

"By the way! After you entered the city, have you ever met your mother?" Li Chengqian said.

"As soon as the son entered the city, he immediately came to see his father, but he had never been to his mother." Li Sujie said.

Li Sujie didn't know it yet, but he already disgusted Li Chengqian.

"Okay! That's it for today! I'm tired too. This person gets tired easily when he's old. You're also exhausted, so you must be tired too. Go back and rest first, and wait for my summons!"

"By the way! Now that you've returned to Beijing, after you leave here, I'll go see your mother first. She must have a lot to say." Li Chengqian said.

"The minister there will leave!" Li Sujie saluted and retreated.

"Hmph! The mother and son are so similar, they dare to deceive me like this, what else can they do, poor Xiang'er." After Li Sujie left, Li Chengqian complained.

"Everyone means that the death of King Wei was caused by King Xu?" Wang Quan said in a low voice.

"Whether it is true or not depends on how Di Renjie's investigation goes! By the way, let Xu Wang stay in Chang'an quietly, so that he won't pay his respects every day." Li Chengqian said.

Because Li Sujie sneaked into the city, went to Xiao Guifei's place, but lied to Li Chengqian, Li Chengqian didn't want to see him now, and didn't want Li Sujie to dangle in front of his eyes.

"No!" Wang Quan said in command.

……

A few days passed in a flash.

In Concubine Xiao's palace, Concubine Xiao is playing with her flowers and plants.

"Master, Prince Xu is here!" Lu Mei, Xiao Guifei's close maid, said.

"Su Festival is here, where is it?" Concubine Xiao Gui said happily.

"Son, pay respects to mother!" As soon as the words finished, Li Sujie appeared in front of Concubine Xiao and saluted Concubine Xiao.

"Why does my son come to me every day? You are His Majesty's third son. Now that Li Jue has been deposed and Li Xiang has been assassinated again, you should share your Majesty's worries." Concubine Xiao Gui pulled Li Sujie and said.

Concubine Xiao Gui hoped that Li Sujie could show more performance in front of Li Chengqian and gain Li Chengqian's favor, so that his crown prince position could be assured.

"I also want to share my worries for my father, but my father hasn't seen me for several days, and I have nothing to do around here, so I came to see my mother." Li Sujie said.

"Isn't your father afraid that you will be tired, but he just spared you from going to pay his respects every day, yet he doesn't even see you?" Xiao Guifei asked.

"Yes! Every time I go to ask for an interview, I am stopped outside the hall. There is always a reason to send me back so that I can rest well." Li Sujie said.

"Maybe your father loves you so much, I'm afraid you're tired, but don't worry, I can help you think of something, your father will definitely see you." Concubine Xiao Gui said.

"That's really great! How does mother plan to help me?" Li Sujie asked.

"Right now, there are only two things that concern His Majesty, one is the matter of the previous dynasty, and the other is Li Xiang's funeral."

"There were many government affairs in the previous dynasty, and your father couldn't do everything by himself. We can contact some court ministers to help you."

"For Li Xiang's funeral, you should also pay more attention to it, and make it beautiful, especially to let your father know." Concubine Xiao Gui said.

"Then, what should I do?" Li Sujie asked.

Concubine Xiao came to Li Sujie's ear and told him her plan.

"Is this possible?" Li Sujie asked.

"There must be no problem. You just need to go back and wait in peace. What you do on weekdays and what else to do, I will arrange everything for you. It will be absolutely safe, and you will be guaranteed to become the crown prince." Xiao Guifei said.

"Then I'll thank mother here first!" Li Sujie said with a smile.

"Why don't you be polite with me, you are my only son, if I don't help you, who will I help you?"

"Half of my Xiao family's blood flows in your body, if you can become the crown prince, it will also be the honor of my Xiao family." Concubine Xiao said.

"My son will definitely work hard and never disappoint his mother's expectations." Li Sujie said.

"Okay! That's how I feel at ease! Stay today and eat with me, Lumei, go ahead and prepare the food that King Xu likes." Xiao Guifei said.

"Yes, servant girl will do it now!" Lumei bowed and retreated.

……

"Everyone!" Wang Quan shouted.

"Is King Xu at Concubine Xiao's place these days?" Li Chengqian asked with his head bowed while reviewing the memorial.

"Yes, basically once a day!" Wang Quan said.

"What did they do?" Li Chengqian asked.

"It's nothing, just as usual, occasionally, Concubine Xiao will keep King Xu for dinner." Wang Quan said.

"In the future, don't report such trivial matters!" Li Chengqian said.

"Yes, this servant understands." Wang Quan said.

"Here are some papers. These officials have done a good job! I want to reward them well, have they all been called?" Li Chengqian asked.

"They are all called, and they are waiting outside the hall." Wang Quan said.

"Then call them all in!" Li Chengqian said.

"No!" Wang Quan took the order, turned around and came outside the hall to call those people in.

"Your Majesty, I will see you!" Everyone hurriedly saluted.

"Free from courtesy!" Li Chengqian said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Everyone got up and said thank you.

"I have read your brochures. You have done a good job in the errands. I want to reward you. What kind of reward do you want?" Li Chengqian said.

"Your Majesty! It's not due to me alone that I can do things so well. I dare not hide anything. The reason why I can handle the tasks assigned by Your Majesty so smoothly is because of the guidance of an expert behind us. Done," an official said.

"Oh! Who is the master? Since he has such ability, he can guide you to accomplish this matter. I really want to know."

"However, you also have merit, and I still want to reward you. After rewarding you, I will see the master you speak of again." Li Chengqian said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty Ron!" Everyone thanked hurriedly.
