Royal study room.
"Zhang Fu, Yan'er and Yue'er didn't eat anything at the palace banquet just now. Do you think it's time to change the manager of the imperial study?" Emperor Wu held the book in his hand, but his thoughts were far away.
"The craftsmanship of this imperial study is pretty good. How about we let them find some new tricks?"
"Forget it, whatever new tricks you can find are not as good as Yue'er's, so don't embarrass yourself."
"Yue'er and Yan'er are probably eating in the General's Mansion right now..." Emperor Wu's tone was full of sourness.
Zhang Fu didn't say anything. The emperor was probably very envious.
"Do you think Yue'er will like the princess mansion?"
"The princess will definitely like it. Your Majesty, you have put so much thought into it and collected so many good things..." Everyone likes it.
"Yue'er is different from others. She has seen the world and will not be swayed by those things."
"Um...Yes, the princess must be used to seeing good things, but she must know the emperor's intentions."
"Hey, it's just because I did it that I was worried that she wouldn't like it. When Yue'er saw me today, she called her the emperor..." Emperor Wu felt aggrieved.
"This...princess also needs time to adapt."
Adapt to what? The first time I met the second prince, oh, no, he should be His Highness the Crown Prince now, I called him brother, but he was so unkind to this biological father. Zhang Fu shook his head helplessly.
"I didn't force her, I was just afraid that I wouldn't be able to wait that long..." Emperor Wu obviously felt that his body was not as good as before. He was getting older, and after so many years of hard work and hard work, his body was getting worse. The body is much worse than that of his peers. But he didn't really care.
"Your Majesty, what are you talking about? You are the Nine-Five Supreme Being and the Long Live Lord." Zhang Fu's voice was full of tears when he spoke.
"Okay, okay, I know my body. Who can you show this to, old man? Go ahead."
Unable to read the book, Emperor Wu simply stopped reading and walked to the window to look at the full moon outside, "It's a good day for reunion. I wonder what Yue'er and Yan'er will eat at the Zhenguo General's Mansion. .”
"Your Majesty, why don't we go out of the palace and have a look?" I used to sneak out at night a lot, why are you so calm today?
Emperor Wu was a little tempted, but he still held back, "Forget it, they definitely don't want to see me at the moment, I'd better not disturb them."
Zhang Fu felt a little sad after hearing this.
A young eunuch came in, quietly, and winked at Zhang Fu, who nodded immediately.
"Your Majesty, An Yi is here."
Emperor Wu, whose thoughts were interrupted, sighed and sat back in front of the desk, "Let him come in."
An Yi was still wearing black armor, his face expressionless, "Your Majesty, the criminal Xiao Shen is dead."
"Oh? What's going on?"
"On the way to exile, I encountered bandits, and all 17 people, including officials, died."
"Hey, where's the body?"
"Put it in Yizhuang."
"After all, I have raised him for so many years. Let's buy a coffin and find a better place to bury him."
"Yes. There is one more thing."
"explain."
An Yi didn't know how to speak, so he took out a stack of letters from his arms and handed them over, "My subordinate found this in a secret room in Liu Cheng's house."
Emperor Wu looked as usual and tapped his fingers on the table. Zhang Fu put the letter in front of him.
"I won't read it, just tell me."
"This contains the identity of the Imperial Master. According to the letters exchanged, the Imperial Master should be... the child of the Queen Mother and the previous Holy Master of Northern Xinjiang. This previous Holy Master had been to Daqing and was seriously injured. He was killed at that time He rescued the Queen Mother who had not yet entered the palace, and kept him with her until the Queen Mother entered the palace, and the man disappeared. But according to the letter, this man did not leave, and had been secretly protecting the Queen Mother until... ····Until the birth of the National Master.”
"Snapped"! The small object that Emperor Wu had been playing with, a jade plaque, was smashed to pieces, "Continue."
"My subordinates have been investigating along this line. After the last Holy Master in Northern Xinjiang passed the position of Holy Master to our National Master twenty years ago, he disappeared. There are all kinds of rumors in Northern Xinjiang. , some say he is dead, some say he has attained enlightenment, and some say he has been secretly controlling the court in Northern Xinjiang, but indeed no one can figure out where he is. Until..."
"Until a while ago, the Imperial Guard was injured by King Jingnan, and a group of poisonous people appeared in our Daqing territory. My subordinates checked and found that those people came from the Northern Territory."
"My subordinates immediately asked people in the dark to investigate. After rescuing the Imperial Preceptor, these people did not return to the Northern Territory. Instead, they escorted them all the way to the Northern Territory. However, they met a person on the way, and the Imperial Preceptor was not interested in this person. Very respectful. Although our people dare not get close and cannot hear clearly what the other party is talking about, but comparing the figure with the portrait of the previous Holy Master we got before, there is a 70% chance that it is the same person."
Emperor Wu rubbed his brows and closed his eyes. The room in the imperial study became eerily quiet for a moment.
Half a quarter of an hour later, "Gather all the information and send it to the old King Jingnan and General Zhenguo."
"Yes, do you want to continue investigating?"
"Check, as much as you can find."
"Yes, I am resigning."
Emperor Wu looked at the letters on the table in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking...
Zhenguo General's Mansion, study room.
"Yan'er, keep these two lists." Su Huan handed over a thick piece of information.
"This is it?" Xiao Yan looked confused.
"My grandfather compiled this over the years. Who can use it, who can't use it, and why. It's all recorded on it. You should make good use of it."
"Yes, thank you grandpa."
"I don't need to be polite. You are in need of someone right now. The emperor must have made arrangements for you, but there will inevitably be some omissions. You can make a good conclusion yourself."
"Yes, Yan'er knows."
"Well, grandpa asked you to come over. There is something else I want to ask your opinion on."
"What's the matter?"
"Do you know anything about Yue'er and King Jingnan?" Su Huan said directly.
Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, feeling a little guilty, "I just found out about it not long ago."
"Then what do you think?" Su Huan said in a somewhat anxious tone, "You are Yue'er's brother, so naturally you have to think carefully about her. This girl is smart, but she was born in the world and cannot think about many things. , we need to make good arrangements for her."
"My sister thinks King Jingnan is good, so I will support her. Moreover," Xiao Yan paused, "Judging from my interactions with King Jingnan along the way, this person is indeed someone who can be trusted."
"I watched Han'er grow up, so I naturally know how good he is. I didn't agree with him at first, after all, the age difference is a bit big, but your grandmother is very optimistic about it. She thinks that age will hurt people, hahahaha· ·····”
Xiao Yan also smiled, "Then grandpa also agrees?"
"Well, Han'er is a child who is outstanding, affectionate, and responsible. He has achieved what he has achieved at such a young age. Is there another person in this world?"
