"Because of the Queen Mother's affairs?" Xie Yunxiao asked.
Qin Zheng nodded and sighed, "I really don't understand why the Queen Mother must take my brother Qin Zhao out of the palace to live in Yonghe Palace!"
"The young master is only a few months old now. It's natural for the Queen Mother to take him with her wherever she goes!" Xie Yunxiao said.
"But she is the Queen Mother. It is wrong to leave the palace. Could this have something to do with Mrs. Gan?" Qin Zheng said with a frown.
There have been a lot of things going on in the court recently. Qin Zheng was so busy that he had no time to pay attention to them. Fortunately, at this critical moment, Xie Yunxiao came back.
"It's hard to say!" Xie Yunxiao said.
"If this is a game arranged by Gangu people, what is her purpose? Does the third prince Qin Sheng still have a disobedient heart?" Qin Zheng's eyes were very sharp, and his whole body was filled with the majesty of an emperor.
In front of Xie Yunxiao, she naturally didn't have to taboo anything, she just said everything that came to her mind.
Xie Yunxiao said: "Qin Sheng has a disobedient heart, and it didn't start today. To completely convince him, it will take time and even more opportunity!"
"The people standing behind Qin Sheng are the Gan family, and that's what's causing a headache!" Qin Zheng said.
The Gan family is an old aristocratic family in the Ning Kingdom. It has a deep foundation and is intricately connected to the court. If the Gan family is targeted, it will affect the whole body.
In this way, the entire court may fall into chaos.
"You must handle the matters in the court. As for the other matters, now that I'm back, I'll naturally get to the bottom of it!" Xie Yunxiao said.
Qin Zheng nodded. Her skills were taught by Xie Yunxiao. With Xie Yunxiao stepping in, there is nothing she can't understand.
"There is a person that Master may be able to check!" Qin Zheng said.
"Who?" Xie Yunxiao asked.
Qin Zheng said: "Master should have heard about it!"
"Xiang Mingxuan?" Xie Yunxiao said.
This person was an eunuch beside Zhao Yu. He followed Zhao Yu to the Lama Temple. Two days ago, Zhao Yu suddenly sent a letter asking Qin Zheng to make Xiang Mingxuan a Marquis of Changxin.
Ning Guo has always attached great importance to military merit. If you make great contributions in the army, you can be granted the title of marquis or prime minister. It is possible for anyone from a commoner to a noble family.
This Xiang Mingxuan was just a eunuch. Qin Zheng could not understand why Zhao Yu asked to be granted a title for this person, and also directly made him a marquis.
In order to find out the truth, Qin Zheng personally went to the Lama Temple. Zhao Yu was very excited when he mentioned this matter and threatened Qin Zheng. If Qin Zheng did not seal Xiang Mingxuan, she would reveal Qin Zheng's secrets. .
Zhao Yu is her mother, and she has always been willing to sacrifice herself for Qin Zheng.
Now it was because of such a eunuch that Qin Zheng was threatened. Qin Zheng really couldn't understand.
It is precisely because of this that Qin Zheng is certain that there must be some ulterior secret.
It's just that the current situation is troubled, and Zhao Yu refuses to give in. In desperation, Qin Zheng can only agree to Zhao Yu's request.
But in general, there must be various voices of dissatisfaction in the court.
Now, Qin Zheng also has a headache.
"Yes, it's Xiang Mingxuan. There must be something wrong with this person!" Qin Zheng's eyes showed an inexplicable coldness. If she didn't have time, she would definitely investigate Xiang Mingxuan.
"I was about to talk about Xiang Mingxuan, and now you want me to investigate him directly?" Xie Yunxiao said.
Qin Zheng smiled bitterly, with a look of helplessness on his face, "It's a last resort!"
Xie Yunxiao nodded, and then asked: "Is the origin of this Xiang Mingxuan clear?"
"He has not been in the palace for a long time, and it was my mother who asked for him by name!" Qin Zheng said.
Xie Yunxiao said: "It seems that he does have a big problem!"
"Could he be from the Gan family?" Qin Zheng said.
Xie Yunxiao shook his head, "It's hard to say. The strange thing is why the Queen Mother personally named this person, why she asked you to reward him, and why she threatened you at all costs!"
"I've been thinking about this, and I've generally checked the details of Xiang Mingxuan, but I haven't found anything useful!" Qin Zheng said.
Xie Yunxiao said: "If it is so easy to find out something, why is it so difficult?"
"Then what does Master plan to do?" Qin Zheng asked.
Xie Yunxiao said: "Judging from the current situation, I will naturally continue to investigate the details of Xiang Mingxuan. In addition, I may have to go to Yonghe Temple!"
"Master, be careful!" Qin Zheng said.
Xie Yunxiao nodded, then a look of confidence appeared on his face, and he said with a smile: "In today's world, unless you are a true immortal at the third level of the Nine Realms, anyone who wants to be a master will probably have to die. Pay the price!"
Qin Zheng smiled calmly when she heard this. She looked at Xie Yunxiao, her peach blossom eyes sparkling with light.
After leaving the palace, Xie Yunxiao returned to Humble Garden.
After receiving the order, Uncle Zheng immediately sent someone to find out the details of Xiang Mingxuan, while Xiao An went to prepare the frame of the bicycle. Xie Yunxiao planned to go to the Lama Temple in the afternoon and let many people see it.
Xie Yunxiao also knew that he did not need to deliberately reveal his traces, because the person hiding in the dark would always pay attention to his whereabouts.
Yonghe Temple is located to the east of Xianyang, and the speed of the carriage is not very fast. When we arrived at Yonghe Temple, it was already halfway through Shenshi.
The guards guarding the Lama Temple saw Xie Yunxiao's carriage arriving and stepped forward to stop it. The leader was a middle-aged man. He wore black armor and exuded an aura of iron-blooded killing.
His surname is Kou Mingguiliang, and he was once a deputy general under Yang Ji. Now, he is responsible for the safety of the Queen Mother Zhao Yu and guards the Lama Temple.
"Mr. Xie, please stay. This is the Lama Temple, the Queen Mother's palace!" Kou Guiliang stepped forward and blocked Xie Yunxiao's path.
Xie Yunxiao glanced at Kou Guiliang and said, "Then I'll trouble General Kou to go in and report. Xie Yunxiao wants to see you!"
Kou Guiliang nodded. He turned around and entered the Lama Temple. After nearly half a stick of incense had passed, he walked out of the palace gate and said, "The Queen Mother, please come in, Mr. Xie!"
Xie Yunxiao calculated the time. Logically speaking, the Lama Temple is not very big, and it would not have taken such a long time.
But why did Kou Guiliang go in and take so long to come out?
"It seems that there is indeed a big problem in this Lama Temple!" Xie Yunxiao frowned slightly. He couldn't understand. According to speculation, Zhao Yu was in danger, but it was Zhao Yu himself who came to the Lama Temple. Meaning, why would she deliberately put herself in danger?
Xie Yunxiao followed Kou Guiliang into the Lama Temple, and soon came to a pavilion.
The pavilion was built near the water, and there was only one pedestrian passage leading inside. Xie Yunxiao walked forward, and the only person sitting inside was Zhao Yu.
In less than three months, Zhao Yu looked as if he had aged ten years.
Xie Yunxiao frowned when he saw Zhao Yu's haggard face. What happened to make Zhao Yu look like this?
"I've met the Queen Mother!" Xie Yunxiao saluted.
Zhao Yu was silent for a while and then said: "Mr. Xie, there is no need to be polite. I wonder why Mr. Xie came to Yonghe Palace?"
Xie Yunxiao became even more confused when he saw Zhao Yu hesitate to speak.
He was certain that no one could hide in the dark and eavesdrop on their conversation in this pavilion built near the water.
Obviously this is the place Zhao Yu chose, but Zhao Yu hesitated to speak. Why? Was she threatened?
"The king has been busy with too many complicated things recently and has not been able to come to pay his respects to the queen mother, so he asked the common people to come and take a look!" Xie Yunxiao said.
When Zhao Yu heard this, there was a complex look in her eyes. She tried her best to stay calm and said, "If Zheng'er is to do his job well, he must follow his father's example and be a wise king!"
Xie Yunxiao said: "The Queen Mother doesn't need to say more about this, the king will definitely be a wise king!"
Zhao Yu nodded, "Yes, the Ai family believes in Zheng'er!"
Xie Yunxiao said: "You are the Queen Mother. It is not suitable to live here. Do you want to go back to the palace?"
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Yu did not hesitate and refused decisively, saying: "Although the palace is gorgeous, the Ai family is very comfortable living here. There is no need to go back!"
Seeing this, Xie Yunxiao's thoughts were running at an extremely fast speed. Everyone could see that there was something wrong with Zhao Yu's successive changes in attitude.
But in such a situation, if Zhao Yu didn't want to say anything, it would be useless for him to ask.
"Although we can't get anything certain from the Queen Mother, some things are enough to surmise!"
Xie Yunxiao thought in his mind that his thoughts were changing very quickly, and he could see any changes in Zhao Yu's expression or actions.
"The Ai family knows that Zheng'er is filial, and they are afraid that the Ai family will not live well in the Lama Temple. Mr. Xie is also here as a lobbyist, but there is no need for it!" Zhao Yu said.
Xie Yunxiao nodded, "I understand!"
"If Mr. Xie has nothing else to do, please leave!" Zhao Yu issued an eviction order.
Xie Yunxiao said: "I heard that the scenery of the Lama Temple is good. This is the first time for the common people to come here. I wonder if it is an honor. Could the Queen Mother please take the common people to see it?"
Zhao Yu was stunned for a moment, she didn't understand what was going on.
At the end of the aisle, Kou Guiliang stood, and he would look at Xie Yunxiao and the others from time to time.
Xie Yunxiao was far away from Kou Guiliang, but Xie Yunxiao saw Kou Guiliang's reaction.
This deputy commander under Yang Ji was also someone Zhao Yu wanted personally.
Zhao Yu wanted Xiang Mingxuan and Kou Guiliang, so he came to live in Yonghe Palace. Now that Xiang Mingxuan has been granted the title of Marquis, could it be that Kou Guiliang will be the next to rise to prominence?
"Something interesting!" Xie Yunxiao narrowed his eyes slightly and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
After a while, Zhao Yu finally came to his senses, "Sir, you can walk around the Lama Temple on your own. If Aijia is tired, he will go back first!"
After Zhao Yu left, Xie Yunxiao was already standing in the pavilion.
Kou Guiliang did not leave with Zhao Yu, but seemed to be waiting for Xie Yunxiao to come from the pavilion.
Xie Yunxiao didn't stay in the pavilion for long. He walked over and stopped in front of Kou Guiliang and said, "Looking at the Queen Mother's complexion, she doesn't seem to be very good!"
Kou Guiliang asked: "What do you mean, sir?"
"I want to know why the Queen Mother came to Yonghe Palace!" Xie Yunxiao said.
Kou Guiliang said calmly: "What is the Queen Mother thinking? How can we, as ministers and subordinates, know? Sir, you are making random guesses. This is a taboo!"
Xie Yunxiao glanced at Kou Guiliang again, and he could clearly sense the disdain hidden in the middle-aged man's eyes.
"He is also an interesting person!" Xie Yunxiao thought in his mind. He looked around and said, "I told the Queen Mother that I want to see the scenery of Yonghe Palace!"
