"What does the eldest sister mean? Is it a matter of destroying Huazhi, or is it a matter of brother Ying subduing his wife?" Yang Xianrong looked at Princess Pingyang, "King Zhao has already taken care of the matter of subduing his wife, and the matter of Huazhi is over. It's been so long, where should I start?"
"But didn't you tell King Zhao that you wanted to investigate in secret? Then investigate the matter of Huazhi as well." Princess Pingyang chuckled, "Empress, I might as well tell you from the bottom of my heart that I am the same as General Hua Zhi." We have a very good relationship, and he treated his daughter as his own sister. But I was not in the palace when this happened to her. By the time I got the news, Mrs. Yu had already taken Huazhi away. Where exactly did they go? , I still don’t know. Since you want to investigate, you might as well investigate this matter as well.”
Yang Xianrong didn't answer, just looked at Princess Pingyang.
The food on the table was steaming, and the aroma spread, but no one moved their chopsticks. A waiter said softly at the door: "The food is served."
Mao Hongmao, who was standing at the door, lowered his body slightly awkwardly and glanced at Princess Pingyang. The princess looked at Yang Xianrong, waiting for her response. Mao Hongmao quietly opened the door a crack, and people's voices quickly poured in, making the silence in the room even more obvious at this moment.
This is a Yokan soup that is full of aroma.
Mao Hongmao hesitated for a moment, then put the big bowl of soup on the table, placed it in the middle, and quietly retreated to the door.
The boy had already closed the door when he left, and at this moment, the whole room became quiet again.
Yang Xianrong's fingers were clenched into fists under his wide sleeves. When Princess Pingyang said these words, her tone was somewhat forceful. It is said that she, the eldest sister, has always taken good care of Sima Zhong and was involved in many things. It was this eldest sister who made the decision to let Sima Zhong marry Jia Nanfeng. So, what does she mean by treating herself like this now? Are you dissatisfied with yourself, do you want to investigate, or are you just making things difficult?
What's her reason for doing this? Could it be?
"Queen?" Princess Pingyang called her again.
Only then did Yang Xianrong come back to his senses, bit his lip slightly and said, "Can the eldest sister give me the command of the emperor's embroidered messengers?"
Princess Pingyang was stunned and stared at Yang Xianrong, "How do you know that the token of the Embroidered Clothes Messenger is with me?"
The Embroidered Clothes Envoy was Sima Yan's special internal guard to protect Sima Zhong, and he was more loyal to Sima Zhong than the Forbidden Army. They don't appear in front of people on weekdays, but they only appear when Sima Zhong encounters something. The Jin Gewuwei of King Zhao Sima Lun all imitated the Embroidered Clothes Envoy, but he did not have the command authority of the Embroidered Clothes Envoy.
"The emperor does not know how to use the embroidered messenger, and Zhang Du has no right to mobilize him. If there is anyone else in the royal family who has the power, it is only the eldest sister. The eldest sister has the best relationship with the emperor, and the former emperor Naturally, I gave this token to the First Imperial Sister."
"What do you want this for?" Princess Pingyang asked.
"Protect the emperor." Yang Xianrong straightened his back again, "The eldest sister suddenly returned to the palace. Did something happen outside? Is the emperor in danger?"
This time it was Princess Pingyang's turn to remain silent. She looked into Yang Xianrong's eyes, obviously thinking quickly about the meaning of her words.
Mao Hongmao was even more at a loss because the current situation already involved royal secrets. He was just the shopkeeper of Mingyue Tower and he really shouldn't hear about these things.
Liu Yao took half a step back and lowered his eyes.
"Isn't it a bit unworthy of the commander to return Huazhi's whereabouts and Sima Ying's wife?" Princess Pingyang narrowed her eyes.
Yang Xianrong smiled slightly, "Then this is the problem of the eldest emperor. For me, these two things have nothing to do with me. Whether I do it or not, it doesn't matter."
Princess Pingyang stopped talking again, and it was obvious that she was starting to weigh things up again. Yang Xianrong laughed again, filled a bowl of yokan soup with his own hands and placed it in front of Princess Pingyang, "Drink this while it's hot. Don't eat it if it's cold."
Princess Pingyang looked at the yokan soup and still said nothing.
Yang Xianrong didn't care so much anymore and filled another bowl on his own. He also filled another bowl for Liu Yao and handed it to him. Liu Yao was a little embarrassed, but he still took it and whispered: "Thank you, Queen."
"Brother Liu, why are you so polite?" Yang Xianrong turned to ask Mao Hongmao, "Boss Mao... I'd better serve a bowl of iced cheese and divide it into two small bowls. I also want to drink it."
This is somewhat provocative.
Princess Pingyang was a little displeased. She was about to say something. Yang Xianrong said again: "Sister, please don't think about it for too long. This matter still needs to be resolved as soon as possible. If you are worried about losing the command of the Embroidered Clothes Messenger, you can do it." No need. After all, they have been taking orders from you for so many years. Even if you don't have a token, you can still command them. To me, it's just a recognition. If something really happens, I can control it. They protect the emperor. After all, the eldest sister cannot live in the palace forever, right?"
After breaking it open and crumbling it, Yang Xianrong analyzed the pros and cons for her.
Princess Pingyang touched the edge of the yokan soup bowl and asked again: "Don't you ask me again why I am so persistent in searching for the whereabouts of the flower branches?"
"Of course you have your reasons. If you don't want to tell them, I won't ask."
"Sure enough, you are different from others." Princess Pingyang sighed, "This is a request from an old friend."
When Yang Xianrong heard this, he wanted to roll his eyes at her. It’s just one sentence to give or not. Why do you talk so much about the past? In fact, she just wanted to find out the whereabouts of the mother and daughter, and find out what happened back then. Is it interesting to use her identity as the royal sister to scare myself now?
"So, please give me the command token first."
"Are you impatient and unwilling to listen more?" Princess Pingyang frowned.
"Listen, but give me the token first, and then agree while eating, otherwise the food will be cold and it won't taste good. Also, I have to go back to the palace quickly after eating. You are not with the emperor. , then I have to be there. He has a stomachache these days, so I have to rush over and have a look." Yang Xianrong was not particularly polite, "Sister Da Huang, I don't have so many rules and scruples here. If you want to What, just tell me directly, don’t do this, I’m quite scared too.”
She pretended to be delicate again, which made Princess Pingyang dumbfounded. She took out an jade ring from her arms and gave it to Yang Xianrong, "This was given to me by the late emperor before his death. There were only five thousand people in and outside the palace of the embroidered messenger, but they were all selected and inspected by the late emperor. People are usually scattered in every corner. If something really happens... I hope not... I can order them with just this jade ring."
"Who is the liaison officer?" Yang Xianrong wanted to roll his eyes again. It was useless to hold it with a finger. These people must be integrated to be effective.
"Who do you think this person is?" Princess Pingyang suddenly laughed again and asked her.
