"So it is not directed at His Highness, and it has no impact on His Highness's power."
"Who was that aimed at?"
"The emperor's mind is so easy to understand. Perhaps His Majesty is already old and is paving the way for peace in the world."
"You mean my father is doing it for me?"
Cui Sanfei smiled and said: "I can only say that it is possible."
Qin Chucheng was silent in thought. After coming here for a long time, he came back to his senses and looked at Qin Chuzhen not far away.
How could Cui Sanfei not see Qin Chucheng's thoughts and said with a smile: "Your Highness, no matter who you are close to as a minister, you must ultimately be loyal to the emperor."
Qin Chucheng smiled and said, "Okay, then I will smooth over those objections for Mr. Xie."
At this time, I saw the Silla envoy getting up with wine and walking towards this side.
Qin Chucheng smiled and asked: "Sanfei, how many of these Silla beauties do you want?"
"I don't want it this time."
"Why not? Are you afraid that Fu Xie will say something about you?"
"No, the nine girls in my family are making me tired. Besides, the Queen just warned me in court. I have to restrain myself and wait for a while."
Qin Chucheng said with a smile: "That's right. It's rare for the Queen to say anything, so she must be happy."
He drank a glass of wine and said softly: "Sanfei, what do you think a woman like the Queen likes?"
"Your Majesty, be careful what you say."
Qin Chucheng smiled: "I'm just curious."
Cui Sanfei glanced at the Silla envoy who had already walked to the field: "Your Highness, you can talk about state affairs. I will take my eldest brother back first."
Qin Chucheng nodded.
"Your Highness, the benefits of both parties will be accepted."
"I know, let's send Xie Fu back quickly."
…
Far away from Hanyuan Hall and approaching Jinwu Gate, Cui Sanfei said loudly: "Brother, it's almost over. You're about to crush me to death."
Xie Fu then smiled soberly and said, "Sanfei, thank you for carrying me."
"Brother, congratulations on becoming this direct envoy."
Xie Fu didn't show much joy: "What's gratifying? His Majesty probably just wants to use me as a swordsman to help him clean up the mess."
"Brother can see clearly."
"It's a crime for a common man to have a jade in his possession, but I won't be able to live in peace for the rest of my life."
"Officials are always walking on thin ice."
"When I really help His Majesty clean up the mess, His Majesty will definitely use me to quell public anger, and the cunning rabbit will be cooked by the lackey. This has been the case since ancient times."
"Brother needs to make plans in advance."
"I'm tired of living too. Personal life and death don't matter, just... just..."
Xie Fu said with a smart smile: "Whatever, He Qing said that if you marry a chicken, you will follow the chicken, if you marry a dog, you will follow the dog. It doesn't matter whether the chicken's life is good or the dog's life is good."
"Sister-in-law Qing is such a good sister-in-law."
Xie Fu laughed loudly: "You have given your ministers power, and they should use their lives to seek common people. When the time comes, your Majesty, please don't shoot yourself in the foot."
"By the way, brother, why didn't you dare to see the Queen just now? I almost couldn't hold myself back."
"I've offended her."
"How did you offend her? Is it serious?"
"It's a long story."
"Brother, after all, you are also destined to have her listen to sutras in the middle of the night. Can't we buy forgiveness for this fate?"
"Can you buy one tael of silver for ten copper coins?"
Cui Sanfei immediately understood: "So, I offended you very seriously, but luckily I got over it."
Xie Fu secretly thought that he had recognized me a long time ago, and now he was probably thinking of how to kill me.
At this moment, a sharp and clear voice came from the front door of Jinwu Gate: "Thank you, Master Xie, please stay."
Cui Sanfei was shocked: "Eunuch Tu, the manager of the Central Palace."
Xie Fu said calmly: "Don't panic. In Hanyuan Hall, the Queen has recognized me a long time ago. It's a blessing that you don't have to be afraid. It's a disaster that you can't avoid. You don't have to worry about this matter. Just go back safely."
Cui Sanfei smiled bitterly: "I can't control it even if I want to. Brother, the most important thing is to save your life. If there are other things missing, it doesn't really matter."
"What do you mean?"
"With your identity, the Queen needs to weigh it carefully even if she wants to kill you, but it's not that easy to stay safe."
"Look how serious you are."
"If this matter was easy to solve, you would have solved it in Hanyuan Hall just now, so why hide it."
Xie Fu and Cui Sanfei approached, and the old eunuch stepped forward: "Master Xie, the Queen has invited you."
"Eunuch Tu, it's midnight at midnight. I wonder if the Queen has something important to do to summon Sir Xie to the harem."
Cui Sanfei's words are intended to remind me that I am a witness and you should not try to frame me up.
Eunuch Tu smiled and said, "Master Cui is kidding me. How can outsiders be allowed to enter the important place of the palace?"
He said in a tone that could not be refused: "Thank you, sir, please."
Although Xie Fu was not familiar with the imperial palace, he knew that he was not going to the center of the palace when he woke up in a remote courtyard.
Are you planning to find a remote and quiet place to kill him?
I couldn't help but smile. It was so eerie in the middle of the night. If it were Xie Fu a few years ago, he would have been scared to death.
"Why are you laughing, Mr. Xie?"
"I said Your Majesty is really tolerant. Do you still allow the Queen to receive guests in the middle of the night? Your Majesty knows this, so he won't blame you."
"Don't worry, Mr. Xie. No matter what the Queen does, Your Majesty will not ask any more questions, let alone blame her."
Xie Fu asked curiously: "Why?"
"Because the Empress is not only the empress of the central palace who is the mother of the world, but also a divine envoy worshiped by everyone."
Fu Xie finally understood what Eunuch Tu meant. The Empress had absolute say in the palace. Her virtue and status were unattainable. Gossips could not hurt her at all. She dared to take responsibility.
There is indeed a type of people whose status is above the rule of law.
Walking to a courtyard, there was an exquisite figure standing at the door. Under the moonlight, Xie Fu recognized it as Shaluo from a distance.
"Ms. Officer, thank you for bringing me here."
"Eunuch Tu, thank you for your help."
After Eunuch Tu left, Xie Fu said with a smile: "Madam, I didn't expect you to be a female imperial official."
Shaluo retorted: "I didn't expect you to be a second-grade official. No wonder you are so bold. Let's go."
The courtyard was quiet and quiet. Xie Fu looked around thoughtfully and said with a smile: "It's quiet and no one is there, but it's a good place to kill people and bury their bodies."
"You're not very courageous, why are you afraid?"
"I'm afraid I won't come."
Shaluo stopped and suddenly turned her face: "Take it down!"
A strange fragrance wafted overwhelmingly in the air. Xie Fu immediately raised his body-protecting Qi to block the intrusion of this strange fragrance.
Immediately afterwards, seven or eight women emerged from the darkness, holding strange weapons and wearing a variety of intricate objects on their bodies, as if they were about to conquer demons.
Three of them were the three women from the Western Regions who were at the altar that day, except for Shaluo.
Xie Fu raised his hand and said: "Wait a minute!"
However, Shaluo refused to bargain with him and shouted: "Take it!"
I don't know what the eight girls spilled, but after the strange fragrance, a burst of mist enveloped Xie Fu.
What are you doing? If you want to escape, I won't come.
