Ningxi didn't know that after she walked a hundred meters away, Lin Zhengju also walked out of Qingxin Hall.
Lin Zhengzhen stared at the figure of the imperial concubine, her eyes dark and unclear. I was secretly arguing in my heart: just looking at the back makes people feel graceful, no wonder the emperor is fascinated, Chen Zhi really gave birth to a good daughter, unlike her, the daughter is so disobedient!
Ning Xi's sixth sense alerted her to the fact that someone was staring at her from behind. She turned around and missed her. Lin Zhengzhen had already left in a hurry, and she also looked at Lonely.
"Weird~" Ningxi frowned, glanced back, and muttered to himself.
Forsythia stopped following her master's footsteps and asked: "Master, what's wrong?"
"No, I just felt like someone was watching us from behind, but when I turned around I didn't see anyone. It was strange. Forget it, let's go back to Yongfu Palace quickly and see if Yue'er is in the palace."
Forsythia felt that the master might be overly concerned. How could anyone in the palace dare to stare at the imperial concubine? It was business to go back and coax the princess first.
As you can imagine, when the master and servant returned to Yongfu Palace, they naturally failed. The eldest princess went to play with her brother early!
It's great, it saves you the time to coax the little princess.
When Ningxi arrived at the palace, she looked at the hourglass and ordered the food brought back from outside the palace to be given to the kitchen to be heated. She went to the inner room to wash away the fatigue of the day and take a comfortable bath in the hot water.
Xiao Chengyan came during meal time, and people arrived as soon as dinner was served.
Xiao Chengyan looked at the table full of dazzling delicacies and said with a smile: "I guessed that Jiaojiao would go to Yipin Pavilion and wanted to come over for dinner. This table of delicacies really made me catch up."
Ningxi said reluctantly: "The Emperor's blessing!"
"I have already ordered someone to keep an eye on the affairs of the Lin family. Jiaojiao has handled the matter of Marquis Xuanping very well. General Chen will leave for Beijing as soon as he finds out. There should be no accidents!"
"What does the emperor mean by this?" Ningxi asked in confusion, a little confused.
"The Lin family's ambitions are well known to everyone in the court. I have been patient with them for a long time and naturally gave them a chance, but the Lin family seems to take this power very seriously and is stubborn?" Xiao Chengyan said with a hint of anger.
Ningxi lowered her eyelids. Perhaps the conversation between the monarch and his ministers just now collapsed. The emperor's words were obviously full of anger tonight~
Immediately afterwards, Ningxi heard Xiao Chengyan say, "I shouldn't have thought of him as my in-laws and wanted to hide the evidence for them, otherwise I wouldn't have let them be so arrogant today."
As soon as he said this, Ning Xi understood instantly. It turned out that he had been showing mercy for many years. The king was too empathetic, but he was not appreciated by his ministers. How could this not make people angry?
Ningxi didn't know how to comfort him for a moment, so she could only comfort him by taking a chopstick of his favorite side dishes and said: "Your Majesty, please eat first, there is no need to make yourself angry for others."
Although you say this on your lips, you are always complaining in your heart, you deserve it, who made you provoke so many women, the debt you owed in the early years must always be repaid!
Xiao Chengyan picked up the side dishes in the bowl, sighed, looked around, and asked, "Why don't you see the eldest princess?"
"To return to the emperor, the princess went to Yanqing Palace after getting up in the morning." Forsythia replied immediately from the side.
Ningxi smiled, look~ Not to mention that you are a busy man and you are missing. When she came back, she first went to the eldest princess's bedroom and looked at it without noticing. The little girl went to her brother's place early, and now her eyes are full of him. , where is her mother!
"Yue'er, you have a good relationship with your brother!"
As soon as Xiao Chengyan said these words, Ning Xi could hear the jealousy, but he didn't point it out directly. Instead, he said teasingly: "Why, the emperor's children have a good relationship, aren't you happy?"
"Happy, why am I not happy~ I won't say anything when I eat or sleep, let's eat!"
Listen, this is obviously not true. Man, it is very hypocritical. You also said that you don’t speak when you eat or sleep. Who said that just now?
Seeing the emperor concentrating on eating, Ningxi was very worried at the side. She didn't know how to say what she had discovered today.
Because through the conversation just now, Ningxi felt that Xiao Chengyan seemed to be tolerant of his father-in-law, and even though the conversation between the monarch and his ministers was not satisfactory, he did not get angry on the spot. At least there were no rumors in the palace just now that the emperor had punished Lord Lin.
If she gives a slap in the face, this dinner will be completely unnecessary!
Ningxi pursed her lips, but her thoughts turned to the Lin family. She was so lost in thought for a moment that even Xiao Chengyan was ignored when he brought her some food~
"Why is Jiaojiao so restless? But there is a problem in the Xuanping Hou Mansion?" Xiao Chengyan asked with concern.
Ningxi shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, this is still a matter for the Lin family, but after the Emperor's concubine has spoken, you can suppress your temper." Ningxi reminded kindly.
"Well, the reason has to start with my father. When I entered the palace, my father was worried and arranged people around me. Now they are all placed in my Zhuangzi. This sister Qingtan asked me for help because of the matter of the Crown Princess. I asked the two brothers to go to the Hou Mansion to find out. Although the information was obtained, the other one fell into the trap and was taken away by the Lin family."
"Taken away by the Lin family?" Xiao Chengyan frowned and asked, "But I need to send someone to rescue him."
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. There is no need for that. The person has been rescued, but this time I discovered a shocking secret of the Lin family~"
"The Lin family still has shocking secrets, let's continue." Xiao Chengyan had already drawn a big cross for the Lin family in his heart, so he was not surprised at all that Xuan Pinghou's affairs were related to the Lin family.
Ningxi murmured: "The Lin family built a dungeon privately under the ground, and its scale is comparable to your Penal Department Prison!" In fact, Ningxi didn't know about the Penal Department Prison, and it was Siam Lan who reminded her.
In the past two years, the Lin Mansion has circled all the neighboring households. The scale of the Lin Mansion seems to be quite large now, and now a prison has been discovered. Could it be that they are so bold that they have become a local emperor themselves!
"Presumptuous! Is the Lin family really lawless?" Xiao Chengyan slapped his hands heavily on the table, and it could be seen that the anger level was high but not low.
Ning Xi looked at the shaken dishes with some distress, and raised her hand that was on the table. Sure enough, it was red, "Your Majesty, why are you struggling with your body? It hurts so much!"
Now Xiao Chengyan was no longer jealous that his daughter was no longer close to him, so he ate a few mouthfuls of food and left.
As soon as Xiao Chengyan left, Ningxi breathed a sigh of relief. The emperor had always known that she had her own bodyguard outside the palace. Sure enough, her father really had no reservations about the emperor...
Xiao Chengyan immediately changed into plain clothes when he returned to Qingxin Palace, arranged for someone else to go to the Ning family and Xie family, and then left the palace and went to his original residence.
The original Prince Yan's Mansion has now become a place where the three of them discuss important matters in the court.
