"Get up."

Seeing Xie Yu kneeling on the ground, the emperor said to her in a kind tone, that there is now a father-in-law Baoxia standing beside the two of them in the house.

Seeing Baoxia standing here, Xie Yu understood that it shouldn't be a private conversation.

"Thank you Lord Ron."

She kowtowed before she slipped into her court dress and stood up, bowing her waist slightly, which can be said to be extremely humble.

"Is Mr. Xie Guo's body okay?"

Xie Guogong is Xie Yu's father. When Xie Yu was in the wind and rain in the rivers and lakes, Xie Guogong was still an official in the court. Later, he slowly resigned and only received a title. Now it can be said that he is extremely leisurely.

Xie Yu lowered her eyebrows and replied pleasingly, "My father's health is okay."

Because the emperor's health was not very good, she dared not say how good her father's health was.

"I heard that the queen issued a phoenix edict?"

The old man was more interested in this matter. The queen was a dozen years younger than him. Although she often came to visit him, she didn't talk to him about this matter.

Xie Yu groaned in his heart, and secretly said: Did you come to force the marriage?

In fact, the selection of a concubine by the prince is a major event related to state affairs, but these two do not seem to take the position of the prince in mind? Instead, a bunch of people pressed her head.

Thinking of Qi Liangye's indifferent face, Xie Yu's head began to hurt again, but he still said calmly: "It is true, the Queen Mother ordered the minister and His Royal Highness to choose a day to get married."

The old man's expression was a little darker, but he only recovered his smile in an instant, and asked casually, "What do you think? If you don't want to, I can find another good match for you."

Ha ha ha, can't she say the edict from the Empress?

Xie Yu slandered, but still seemed to reply firmly: "I think there is nothing wrong with Feng Zhao's will."

"Well, that's fine,"

The emperor knew about her grievances with Qi Liangye, but seeing her knocking her teeth down and swallowing them, she felt much better, but he still left a little leeway.

"Marriage is a major event in life, and should not be a child's play. If you two have any regrets, come to me, and I can help you solve it."

Then he asked about the military affairs of Saibei, and Xie Yu was sent out.

When the woman walked out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, she straightened her clothes and her long hair, and when she looked up, she saw the black figure outside the hall.

It was snowing outside the hall, and he had broad shoulders and long body. The delicate knuckles are holding the umbrella handle, behind him is the snow flying in the sky, the red walls and blue eaves, and all the colors are focused on the blackness of his body. He glances back slightly, like a person walking out of a painting.

"Let's go."

The umbrella covered her head, and the two walked side by side and left the palace gate. Xie Yu turned his head slightly, glanced at him, and the two smiled at each other, feeling that the years were quiet.

.

When he returned to the Prince's Mansion, before noon, an urgent secret letter about the military situation in Saibei was delivered to Xie Yu's table.

On the mahogany table, the woman's long hair fell slightly from the side of her head. She frowned slightly and left the letter to Xie Ruyi and Xie Abao.

"Send a letter to my parents and let them check."

After taking over the letter she threw away, the two of them saw the letter reads:

The Xiongnu was about to move, and Wang Yue interfered in the mutual market, suspected of collusion with the Xiongnu.

This is a letter from Xie Yu's subordinate. Xie Yu tapped the case with **** and thought for a while, "Wang Yue is afraid that he is suspected of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, so he will intensify the search."

Make Wang Yue's people fast. Otherwise the consequences are unimaginable.

Wang Yue's people must have penetrated the military intelligence agencies in Saibei, otherwise, although the power of the Minister of Rites can contact the mutual market, it must not contact the high-level power of the Xiongnu.

She rubbed her eyebrows, and there was a bad premonition in her.

The candle was dimly lit, and it was dark outside. She waved to the two of them, and Xie Ruyi and Xie Abao retire.

Xie Yu moved out of the main courtyard after she recovered. Now the situation seems calm but there are hidden secrets, and the major families in the capital are also quite dissatisfied with the reform of Qi Liangye's imperial examinations. She and Xiao Yi are in charge of the entire capital. security issues.

But it also contains some "surveillance" meaning.

.

Shanye Gongfu, secret talk in the study.

Because the second child, Xiqiu, was about to get married at the end of the year, Eunuch Shanye couldn't help but instruct him a few more words.

"Zhongyi Hou's mansion, I look at the fate, Zhongyi Hou and his wife are sensible, and they will be very helpful in your career. You are now transferred to the editor of the seventh grade of the Hanlin Academy. For peers, it can be said that Very good, but don't be greedy in your career, the Crown Prince knows people with discernment, if you get into his eyes, he will promote you."

This is the youngest son, and the eldest son, Xi Shan, is working in Dali Temple. Now, at the age of twenty-five or six, he is already a fifth-rank official. In any case, he is considered a young talent in the capital.

But Xishan is not someone who can sit still. His official position was not obtained from a serious Enke examination, but a recommendation from a census. The storm of reforms in the past two days has been turbulent, and he was worried. At this time, he asked sounded.

"Dad, I'm worried..."

Seeing his hesitant expression, Lord Yama Ye knew what he wanted to say, so he raised his hand to stop his words, shook his head slowly, and said, "Reform is a sharp blade, and what the prince wants to stab is an aristocratic family that doesn't seek to make progress."

"I think the sage has the intention of abdicating. Now that he has full authority over the affairs of the capital to the prince, he might as well warn the family again."

In these years, the family has been dull and lackluster, and the luxury style has been rampant. Take the flood in Pingzhou as an example, it is the consequence of the family's greed for ink.

"My Shanye Gongfu is a pure and honest person, with no distractions in my heart, diligent in doing things, and the monarch is holy, and will take us in his eyes."

Xiqiu knew that his father was loyal and upright, but at this time he was a little disappointed, so he lowered his eyelids and asked, "Dad, have you heard of the Queen's phoenix?"

Lord Yamano looked at him for a while and nodded slightly.

"Although Mr. Xie is a woman, she is very much used by the prince. She was born in Xie Guogong's mansion in Saibei. After Xie Guogong resigned many years ago, I have no contact with him anymore."

"But in a word, Xie Guogong is the best at power and tactics. At that time, the cabinet was not abolished. Wang Yue wanted to win him one or two, but Xie Guogong put it together. Xie Yu inherited her mantle. Don't underestimate her because she is a woman. ."

Duke Yamano and Xie Yu had a little talk about official affairs, but they could also sense that this woman was smooth and wise, and she was not a person to be provoked.

Seeing that his father said that he was still praising Xie Yu, Xiqiu was a little impatient, "Dad, she is a daughter, doesn't she want to marry in the end?"

That's the point.

"Hmph, Manchao Wenwu, who else can she marry?"

Seeing the slight disdain in his demeanor, Duke Shanye immediately snorted, "If it wasn't for His Highness the Crown Prince, would the Empress make an assertion?"

Xiqiu was at a loss for words, and felt extremely unhappy, but he heard his father continue to say:

"With the power and status she has now, the benefits carried by any woman from an aristocratic family are incomparable! Because like the first-class daughters of Sun Qingyao, they were born to serve the family."

"But you have to be clear!"

Seeing that his two sons didn't agree, he slapped the table again,

"In the Xie family, women and men have the same right to inherit the official position. This is the grace of the founding emperor to the Xie family!"

"If you underestimate her now, she will inherit Xie Guogong's title in the future. With the power of Saibei and the power of the prince, she can easily overthrow the two of you. Jieshi, my Xi family has a huge foundation. , can it still survive?"

The expressions of Xi Shan and Xi Qiu changed slightly.

What really frightened them was not the alarmist Xie Yu's words from their father's mouth at all, but the power of the Crown Prince.

You must know that in the future, Xie Yu will become the crown prince and blow the pillow next to the crown prince, and the unlucky one may not necessarily be who it is.

The woman seems to be weak, but the beauty and misfortune can most affect the heart of a man.

Seeing that the two of them had listened in, Lord Yamano sighed.

However, such conversations are not limited to the Shanye Gongfu family, and the study rooms of many houses in the capital have repeated this plot.

Xie Yu's female image also faded instantly. The four words of a generation of powerful ministers suddenly illuminated everyone's eyes like dazzling stars, but she herself did not have such self-consciousness.

The next morning, Lord Xie's visit to Yinglou spread throughout the capital in an instant.

When returning to the mansion, Eunuch Tokugawa was waiting for her in front of the mansion with a lantern. The woman might have drank a lot of alcohol, and her body was intoxicated. Eunuch Tokugawa could smell the drunken smell three steps away from her.

But her eyes are still clear, but her cheeks are burnt red, and she is wearing a purple corset dress, which has both the self-respect of an official and the softness and dignity of a woman.

"Master Xie, His Highness is waiting for you in the main courtyard."

Father Tokugawa whispered to her. He has also slowly changed Miss Xie to Master Xie.

"Oh, it's so late, why is he still waiting for me?"

As soon as the words came out, Tokugawa realized that she was really drunk, so he quickly led her into the main courtyard.

It's almost spring, and the weather is not as cold as it was a few days ago. The man stood in front of Zhixiao's window and saw her wearing only a thin cotton jacket from a distance.

Seeing that her steps were not as steady as usual, he raised his eyebrows slightly.

When the woman entered the study, Qi Liangye realized that there was no scarf around her neck, and she was flushed with cold.

"Your Highness—"

Bowing properly, Xie Yu stood in front of the case and looked at him while he was still awake.

But I don't know if I really drank too much, or the light in the room was too dim, and the woman only felt that a bunch of lights in front of her were floating like dandelions.

She rubbed her temples subconsciously, but she still couldn't see his face when she raised her head, only feeling that the atmosphere was a little dangerous.

Lian'er's business has been doing well in the past few days. A Bao and the others dragged themselves over to eat a feast. The best daughter, Hong, was killed twice.

Lei Qingtian and Mei Xiu forced her to drink alcohol, but now those people were drunk and simply stayed in Yinglou, while she went back to the Prince's Mansion by memory.

"come over."

He closed the book in his hand and said softly.

The woman floated in front of the case, and when she heard his voice, she raised her head with hindsight, but the whole person stood in front of the case. Although she was swaying, she still stood still.
