Deep Palace Conspiracy: My son will sit on the dragon throne and I will be the queen mother

When Shixu heard this, he immediately stepped forward and opened the small box. He saw that there were about a few hundred taels of silver.

Nalan Tao on the side was a little surprised. He had never seen such silver before.

Naturally, he had never seen it, because the money was taken out by Chengjue's people, and it was the money that did not match the number.

Now that the money has been taken out again, these accounts can naturally be settled clearly.

Chengjue calculated all these accounts one by one, then put down the account book in his hand and looked at Nalan Tao who was still busy at the side, "Lord Nalan, I will help you solve this matter."

Nalan Tao immediately stood up and thanked him, "Thank you so much, His Highness the Second Prince, and thank you so much, Young Master Shangguan."

Chengjue stepped forward and gave him a virtual hand, "You don't need to be polite. I know that you are a good official. You have to be supported by the fourth emperor brother to sit in this position. I hope you can have the ability to hold this position firmly."

After Chengjue finished speaking, he left directly with the people.

Only Nalan Tao, who was sweating profusely, was left thinking about what he had just said. If he really relied on himself, he would not be able to secure this position. Maybe this time, his black gauze hat would be at stake.

Why did that small box of silver suddenly appear? He knew who was plotting, and he also knew that he was being plotted, but he had no choice.

Nalan Tao sighed heavily. He was already over fifty, and recent events had made him feel haggard. Would he continue to gamble with the fourth prince?

Even if it's a bet, what are his chances of winning?

In the Yangxin Hall, Emperor Yinde was delighted when he saw the memorial presented by Chengjue.

"Jue'er is indeed my eldest son. It took such a short time to find out the money." Emperor Yin De looked at Cheng Jue, and he became more and more satisfied. He is indeed the son he carefully cultivated.

Chengjue bowed and said, "All this is what I should do. I don't dare to take credit."

"You don't have to be humble. Time has told me that you were so busy that night that it was really hard." Emperor Yin De said this to Cheng Jue sincerely. Since ancient times, as long as you want to fight for that Position, as long as you sit in that position, who doesn't work hard?

"Father, don't listen to Shixu's nonsense. He is always unruly." Cheng Jue pursed his lips and looked at Shixu aside, knowing that he had been helping him all along.

Shi Xian shrugged, and Emperor Yin De took all this in his eyes and said, "You two will have dinner with me here tonight, and go back early to rest after dinner."

Emperor Yinde looked at the two children and agreed, winking at Li Fuhai and asking him to go down and arrange dinner.

Shi Xian glanced at Cheng Jue. Normally, if the two of them did a good job, they would be left here to have a meal. Today, it was done.

At this time, Nalantao knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I want to resign."

Emperor Yinde frowned, "Get up and talk."

Nalan Tao still knelt on the ground respectfully, "I know that I am old and cannot help Your Majesty. I ask Your Majesty to allow me to retire and return to my hometown."

This can be regarded as a decision he made after careful consideration. Think about it when His Majesty ascended the throne more than ten years ago, what kind of bloody storm was it?

After His Majesty ascended the throne, there was a major change of officials in the court, and how many forces that were not beneficial to him were eradicated?

I was on the right team in the first place, but what about this time?

Having received favor from Lord Qiao, I should have been the Fourth Prince's man, but the Fourth Prince's chances of winning were not good.

If I join the Second Prince now, how many people will see me as a thorn in their side?

After serving as an official for many years, he was tired.

Chengjue glanced at Nalan Tao who was kneeling on the ground. He was smart and sober.

Chengxuan looked at Nalan Tao coldly, this was the person his grandfather had carefully trained.

well.

Emperor Yinde turned his finger and said, "Since you have decided, I will let you go and go home and enjoy your happiness."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Nalan Tao said goodbye to the Ninth Five-Year Plan above him.

There is no reluctance, only joy that I can finally stay away from these right and wrongs.

Cheng Jue won beautifully this time, Cheng Xuan was sad recently, and it was his mother-in-law’s memorial day soon, which made her even sadder.

Yang Shan also knew that he had been having a hard time recently, so she came over from Gaoli to be with him.

On the day of Qiao Muyan's memorial day, Chengxuan brought his fiancée Yang Shan to Fengxian Hall to see his mother. This was Yang Shan's first time here.

Chengxuan offered incense to his mother-in-law, knelt on the futon and burst into tears.

It has been almost four years since my mother-in-law left, and I really miss her.

If only she were still here, there wouldn't be so many people bullying her.

If nothing like that had happened, maybe his mother-in-law would still be alive, right?

It was him who felt sorry for his mother and concubine.

I will definitely give her the best and the best.

Yang Shan also cried, but of course not a single tear was shed for Qiao Muyan.

It's more for myself, my brother and my father.

It would be great if my father could come back again.

In the imperial garden, Chengxuan and Yang Shan sat side by side.

Chengxuan still had great trust in Yang Shan. After all, the only one who could talk to him in this deep palace was his unmarried wife.

"My grandfather has been planning for me for so many years, but he never thought that Nalan Tao would be so useless."

"What did my father say that he himself resigned? He was the one I pushed for. Isn't this a slap in my face?"

Chengxuan complained to Yang Shan angrily.

Yang Shan gently held his hand and persuaded, "Chengxuan, don't be angry, it's not worth it for this kind of person."

"There are still many days to come. You, your grandfather, the Ministry of Rites, my brother and I, and the whole of Korea are all supporting you."

Yang Shan said and rested her head on his shoulder.

"I heard that you have been in a bad mood recently. I am worried, and so is my brother, but sometimes we can't help. You promise me to take care of myself, okay?"

Chengxuan's heart was slightly touched. Maybe she was the only person who really cared about him now.

"Don't worry." Chengxuan finished speaking and poured her a cup of tea himself.

"No matter how you think about this, something is wrong. I think it must be the second child."

"Don't let me find out anything, otherwise I will definitely kill him."

Chengxuan said, his fists already clenched.

"No!" Yang Shan quickly held his hand, her eyes a little red.

"You can't do such a dangerous thing. If you want to kill Shen Chengjue, I have no objection. But if His Majesty really finds out, you will die. So what do you want me to do?" Yang Shan's voice was urgent, first This is the first time I've lost my composure in front of him.

Yang Shan's hot tears fell right on the back of Chengxuan's hand.

Chengxuan pursed his lips and held her in his arms.

"Xiaoshan, are you really doing it for me?"
