"Since you have to go to the palace to meet the Saint early tomorrow morning, you should rest early! As soon as you get home, you ran to find Miss Mei. You are really energetic as a young man! I can't do it anymore, old man, I have to go back to sleep." With that, Old Wu turned around and walked towards the door.
When he came to the door, he stopped again, turned around and said to Shao Xi: "It seems that you have enough work tomorrow. If you have anything to do, hurry up and finish it tomorrow. The day after tomorrow, you and I will go to Jingci Temple to leave your mother." Get your stuff back.
"After so many years, you still don't know if the thing is still there? I hope it won't be taken away. It was the most precious thing your mother and your aunt had during their lifetime. I hope they can find it smoothly." After saying that, Old Wu Tou also said Left without looking back
"Xiyan Pavilion" left Shao Xi sitting alone in the study, thinking about entering the palace tomorrow. The tasks assigned by Xiao Changyi before going to Southern Zhao as an envoy have been almost completed. All I need to do to enter the palace tomorrow is to pay the errand.
For Shao Xi, the most important thing was to reveal that Xiao Yuzhi was raising a private army in Yujiang County, plotting rebellion, and trying to collude with Fu Zuoliang in Southern Zhao to create chaos in the southern border of the Jingyuan Empire.
As for the Tanzhou incident, there is currently no evidence, but with the two previous pieces of evidence, as long as Shao Xi mentions it, Xiao Changyi will definitely send someone to Tanzhou secretly to investigate the matter. Once it is confirmed, it will be reported to Xiao Yuzhi Add a touch.
Now that these two or three things are known, I believe that Xiao Changyi will continue to dig deeper into Xiao Yuzhi's dirty information. When the time comes, there will definitely be more than what he knows.
As long as the Holy One personally investigates the matter, Xiao Yuzhi will have no chance to cover it up. Ten years ago, sixty-six members of the Fengjiazhuang family were killed. Such a great revenge would be avenged tomorrow, and Shao Xi was extremely excited for a moment.
Over the years, he had almost forgotten his identity as a time traveler, but now he really felt that he was Feng Yuyan, or Xiao Yuyan.
It took ten years for the Feng family's feud to be avenged, and it has become his biggest wish over the years. Shao Xi did not go back to his bedroom that night, but slept in a daze in the study until dawn. After waking up, Shao Xi rubbed his neck, squeezed his shoulders, opened the door and called Fu Biao over. And asked him to bring his official uniform with him.
He will take Fu Biao with him when he enters the palace today. When Fu Biao heard that he was going to take him to see the current emperor, he was so nervous that he couldn't even speak. Shao Xi smiled and reminded him that he was overthinking and they were just entering the palace together. He had no chance to meet the emperor, so there was no need to be nervous.
Although Fu Biao promised, it could be seen that his whole body was tense at this time. He actually ran back to the room and changed into a new set of clothes. Shao Xi also shook his head in confusion.
Because entering the palace today is a formal meeting with the Holy Father, and he has to explain the official affairs assigned by the Holy Emperor, he has to wear official uniforms to travel. Naturally, he cannot ride a horse after wearing official uniforms, so Shao Xi asked Liu Fu to prepare a carriage and went with Fu Biao got on the carriage together and headed towards the palace.
Shao Xi had the privilege of walking in the palace, so Fu Biao was smoothly taken into the silver gate by Shao Xi. As soon as they entered the Yintai Gate, a eunuch led Shao Xi and the two towards the imperial study. On the way, the eunuch told Fu Biao to stop and wait when he was a hundred steps away from the imperial study. The guards gave him trouble.
Fu Biao quickly agreed, saying that he thought he could still see the current emperor, but he didn't expect that he might not even be able to see the door of the emperor's study room clearly.
But this is good, lest I make any mistakes when seeing the Holy Master in a hurry. Wouldn't that cause trouble to my son?
As soon as he arrived at the door of the royal study, he saw Eunuch Cao standing in front of the door. Seeing that it was Shao Xi who was coming, Eunuch Cao quickly came up to him with a smile on his face, and grabbed Shao Xi to ask questions, how enthusiastic he was!
The two hadn't seen each other for half a year, and they seemed particularly close.
"Oh, Lord Shao! You are finally back. You don't know how much the Holy Emperor has missed you in the six months since you left. Even the old slave is thinking about Lord Shao every day. This time Lord Shao is on an envoy to Nan Zhao It was the misty land of the Southern Barbarians. Master Shao must have suffered a lot. It was really not easy!
"Yesterday, the Holy One mentioned Lord Shao to the old slave. He said that he has been away for half a year. A few days ago, someone from the mission came back to deliver a letter, saying that he would be able to see Lord Shao in the next two days. This Holy Lord really spoke the truth. He just finished reciting it. Mr. Shao, you are here, you have really complied with the wishes of the Holy One!" No matter whether this is true or false, at least Eunuch Cao's enthusiasm makes Shao Xi feel very comfortable. Someone is thinking about him when he is out, no matter it is because of What reason isn't a bad thing after all.
Xiao Changyi was looking forward to his return, and naturally he was worried about whether the things he had done during his trip to Nanzhao were appropriate.
As for Eunuch Cao, he may have been polite with his words, but he may also be thinking about the banknotes in his wallet.
Nowadays, he can't let people say their kind words in vain, not to mention that Shao Xi really gained a lot of benefits from this trip.
So, the three hundred taels of silver notes came into the hands of Eunuch Cao again. As an old man in the palace, Eunuch Cao knew how thick the stacked silver notes were and stuffed them into his sleeve without even looking at them. Shao Xi was enthusiastic again, and Shao Xi felt that it was very useful.
After the two chatted for a while, Eunuch Cao entered the imperial study room to inform Xiao Changyi of Shao Xi's arrival, and came out a moment later to notify Shao Xi to be summoned by the Holy Master.
Entering the imperial study room, he saw Xiao Changyi standing up from behind the imperial desk to greet him. Shao Xi quickly knelt down and bowed to Xiao Changyi. Since he was wearing official uniform, this courtesy was naturally inevitable.
After Xiao Changyi asked Shao Xi to get up, he waved his hand and asked Eunuch Cao to retreat, leaving only Shao Xi and himself talking in the imperial study.
"Shao Xi, I heard from the people sent back by the mission that when you went to Southern Zhao, you left the team and walked alone in our Jingyuan Kingdom. This time you left by yourself. You must have something to go to. Let’s do it?
"But that's fine. If you come back a few days earlier than the mission, I won't have to worry about it for a few more days. Then talk to me about serious matters first! What was the result of this mission to Nan Zhao? What was gained?" Shao Seeing that Xiao Changyi got straight to the point, Xi lowered his head and handed Xiao Changyi the secret agreement written by Zhao Hongjin to Xiao Changyi and the mission edict that Mr. Cao had given him before departure from his satchel.
"Fortunately, I have lived up to my mission. This time I went to Southern Zhao to appease the little emperor of Nan Zhao, and handed over the Holy Emperor's secret agreement to the little emperor Zhao Hongjin. The little emperor is not a fool. He will naturally not do anything that is beneficial. reject.
"So Wei Chen persuaded him without much effort. The little emperor also drafted a secret agreement for Wei Chen to bring to the Holy Emperor. The establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries has been a matter of course. Next, we only need to sign the covenant step by step and the matter will be settled. It's done." Xiao Changyi reached out and took the Southern Zhao secret agreement and the edict from Shao Xi, put the edict aside, opened the secret agreement and read it twice carefully.
He nodded with satisfaction and said to Shao Xi with a smile: "You don't have to be humble with me. I know how difficult this trip is. It's a great achievement to be able to facilitate this for you. Naturally, I will not treat you badly." , just leave the rest to Zhang Yuzheng from the Ministry of Etiquette. Now let’s talk about the second thing I entrust you with!” Shao Xixin said, no wonder people say that the Holy God manages everything, and the efficiency of handling things is indeed not low. In a few words, the matter of establishing diplomatic relations with Southern Zhao was arranged.
However, the second thing mentioned at this time may be a bit complicated to talk about. I am afraid that Xiao Changyi will not be able to cut through the mess quickly.
Although it concerned the current second prince, the mausoleum king Xiao Yuzhi, Shao Xi's determination for revenge made him without any hesitation. He lowered his head again and took out the thick stack of letters and documents wrapped in cloth from his bag, and handed them to Xiao Changyi with both hands. in front of.
Xiao Changyi took the cloth bag, opened the cloth cover and saw such a thick pile inside, then turned around and sat down behind the imperial case, carefully looking at each piece.
Shao Xi stood aside and watched Xiao Changyi's face getting worse and worse, and he read the documents and letters faster and faster. From the slightly shaking hands, he could tell the anger in Xiao Changyi's heart at this time.
As an emperor, he was not angry at all, but now the displeasure on his face made Shao Xi feel the pressure from the emperor.
Xiao Changyi read all the evidence no less than three times. He raised his head and stared at Shao Xi with anger in his eyes for a long time before he spoke. This opening shocked Shao Xi.
"Shao Xi, you are really courageous. Do you know what the crime is for falsely accusing the current prince?" Shao Xi felt furious when he heard this!
What's going on? With so much evidence in front of you, you still say that I framed him? You are making it clear that you want to protect your shortcomings!
This kid is seeking power and usurping the throne! You, the old boy, the emperor, are so short-tempered that you are not wise to protect him! Although a tiger's poison does not eat its seeds, if you protect this wolf cub like this, are you afraid that you will suffer the consequences?
"Your Majesty! The pieces of evidence placed in front of your Majesty include both personal and physical evidence. They are all conclusive. How can I be framed by a minor official?
"Since the Holy Emperor sent us ministers to Southern Zhao this time to secretly investigate spies colluding with foreign countries, now we ministers not only found out that His Highness the King of Ling had an attempt to collude with the courtiers of Southern Zhao, but also found out that in our territory Jingyuan He colluded with local officials to privately increase taxes and secretly raised private armies. Each of these things was verified and implemented.
"Furthermore, the private army in Yujiang County has been wiped out with the cooperation of Wei Chen and County Prime Minister Cui Qi, and all military resources have been confiscated and put into the treasury. These have been reported to the Holy Emperor before, how can they be fake?
"I believe that anyone who harms the interests of our Jingyuan Dynasty and intends to subvert the imperial power and usurp the throne, regardless of his identity, should be exposed and reported for the sake of the Holy One to eliminate hidden dangers, so as to ensure the stability of our Jingyuan Empire and peace for all ages." As soon as Shao Xi finished speaking, Xiao Changyi
With a "pop" sound, he slapped his hand on the imperial case. This sound made Shao Xi tremble in shock, thinking that this old emperor boy was going to go crazy!
Did his words poke his lungs? But at this moment, Shao Xi couldn't care less. This was a rare opportunity to avenge the Feng family, and he had to give it a try even at the risk of losing his head.
But who knew that Xiao Changyi would laugh out loud and say: "Okay! That's good!" Shao Xi thought to himself, was he confused by anger?
