Xie Li shook his head, his face slightly cold, "I'll go to Chengyuan to have a look."
Song Huixin walked to his side and whispered, "I'll be with you."
The two of them walked towards Chengyuan together, and met Liu Fanyin who was rushing towards them on the path.
The three of them looked at each other and said nothing in perfect agreement, but only quickened their pace.
The door of Chengyuan was wide open. As soon as the three of them arrived, they saw Baiji pacing anxiously in the courtyard.
Bai Ji also saw them, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly greeted them, "Your Majesty, you are finally here!"
Xie Li frowned, fixed his gaze on the door, and said in a deep voice, "What's wrong with mother?"
There was a cry in Bai Ji's tone and he responded hurriedly, "Madam suddenly had a high fever and couldn't get it down no matter what. She fell into a drowsy sleep for several sleeps and her body was terribly hot."
Xie Li's face was extremely green and he asked coldly, "Is the person from Nongyuntang here?"
"Here we come," Bai Ji nodded heavily and whispered, "Dr. Feng from the hall, as well as Zhiyu and Qingli, are here. They are all at a loss. After struggling for a long time, Madam still has a high fever."
"Madam, wake up!"
As soon as the words fell, Su Zi ran out excitedly and said loudly, "Madam woke up. She sat up and gave herself a few injections. Then she lay down again and asked the servant to bring a message to the prince and his wife, saying it was just the cold. , let you two go to court in a down-to-earth manner."
"How can I be steady?" Xie Li frowned and raised his feet to rush in, "I'm going to see my mother."
"Your Majesty, Madam said she was afraid that the illness would spread to the masters, so she specifically informed her that she would not allow you to visit her." Seeing that he was about to barge in, Su Zi hurriedly stopped him, "Old Madam, after getting the news, I will go there early in the morning Came here, met Madam when she was awake, and was driven back again.”
Xie Li paused, not knowing what to do.
He wanted to see his mother, but he was also afraid that his mother would be angry with him.
Liu Fanyin took two steps forward, her eyes fell on Xie Li, and she persuaded softly, "Second brother, you and your siblings can go to court without any worries. I will keep an eye on the family and won't let mother get into trouble."
Seeing Liu Fanyin speak, Song Huixin tugged on Xie Li's sleeves and advised him, "Let's go, my sister-in-law is here. Master Shen and Master Lu are not in the court, so you have to go."
Xie Li pursed her thin lips and looked sternly, "Then I'll trouble my sister-in-law."
Liu Fanyin shook his head and smiled softly, "It doesn't matter, I'll be guarding you in Chengyuan. You go and clean up."
Xie Li nodded, took Song Huixin's hand and hurried out of Chengyuan.

Jinluan Hall
Yuan Chen was on the throne, looking down at the officials in the audience, and asked in a low voice, "Do you have anything else to say?"
"Your Majesty, I have something to report."
The man walked out sideways, holding the wat board in his hand with a cold expression.
Song Huixin looked at him, feeling a little confused.
She didn't know if it was her imagination, but she actually saw the man glance at her coldly, with a malicious look in his eyes.
Yuan Chen curled his lips and smiled gently, "Xia Aiqing, you rarely speak on weekdays. But today you speak, is there something big going on?"
The man's face was calm, and he ignored the emperor's joking and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, I accidentally heard a rumor that General Song made a lot of money when he reinforced the Turks, and obtained an unparalleled treasure from the Turk king. It was carved from a piece of strange jade. The coiled dragon can warm your hands in winter and drive away the heat in summer. It has a faint fragrance and still shines brightly at night."
"I don't know if this rumor...is true or false."
As the man spoke, he glanced at Song Huixin who was looking forward, and his tone became even colder, "General Song, please forgive me for speaking bluntly, our emperor is the one who ordered the aid to the Turks. The gifts given by the Turks are also given to the emperor. There are You should offer this treasure as a gift, instead of keeping it secretly."
In a few words, Song Huixin was directly at fault.
Song Huixin blinked, feeling baffled. She didn't understand why this man was so obsessive. She had clearly never provoked him.
"Xia Zhao, you have to provide evidence when you speak." Xie Li spoke quietly, looking at him with a half-smile, "I don't know why you hold grudge against General Song, but you just want to convict her directly. Inappropriate."
"I have never seen Lao Shizi's strange jade dragon, but you can talk about it so vividly and vividly. It's really strange."
Xie Li secretly sneered back, his smiling face looked a bit like Shen Ji.
"Master Xie, you and General Song are of the same mind, so you will naturally speak for her." Xia Zhao sneered, raised his chin and said, "I am speaking frankly today, but I think this rumor is somewhat credible. It is clear that General Song has hidden treasures. You just didn’t take the emperor’s power into consideration, this is obviously a sin!”
"If General Song can admit his mistakes in front of the emperor, he can make his subordinates treat him differently."
"Why should I admit to something I haven't done?" Song Huixin's expression did not change at all. Not only was he not angry, he even had a bit of a smile. "Master Xia's rumors and sins, are they unintentional or intentional?"
"How many coins is Master Xia's special treatment worth?" Song Huixin looked at her with a sarcastic look, "I got a treasure, why didn't I know?"
Xia Zhao had no intention of letting her go just like that, and asked in a deep voice, "If General Song really has a clear conscience, why not ask the emperor to send some people to search the Yongcheng Hou Mansion and restore the general's innocence?"
Yuan Chen tightened his lips and said helplessly, "It's just a small matter, why bother?"
"Your Majesty, this matter is not trivial. If General Song is really greedy for small profits as rumored, how can he loyally protect the emperor? We dare not support such a person as a general of the country." Xia Zhao raised the wat board and said loudly, "Please The emperor sent people to search the Yongcheng Hou Mansion."
"Please ask the emperor to send people to search the Yongcheng Hou Mansion!"
After Xia Zhao finished speaking, a few people followed him sparsely.
Song Huixin looked around and took note of the appearance of those people, his face became increasingly gloomy.
This man never departed from the truth and made up his mind to roast himself on the fire.
Song Huixin was sure that if he said the word "no", he would definitely bite him to death.
what to do……
"Xia Aiqing, why is this..."
"Your Majesty, I agree to search the palace."
Before Song Huixin could say anything, Xie Li spoke first.
Song Huixin was startled and looked sideways at Xie Li, his eyes full of surprise.
Xie Li looked at her, shook his head slightly, and used his eyes to signal her to be calm.
"This..." Yuan Chen was a little unhappy and frowned, "Xie Qing, this matter has not reached this level."
"Since some people doubt my loyalty, I will naturally try my best to prove my innocence."
Song Huixin was very confused. His eyes wandered over Xie Li and Xia Zhao, and a solemn look flashed in his eyes.
Is it really because of an unfounded rumor that Xia Zhao jumped out at this moment? (End of chapter)
