The Female Assistant of Wei Yuyan Shuangfei

After Xie Shuting and Li Shixian came out of Huanqing Building, they cast aside their previous worries and started to stroll on the streets of Yizhou.

Compared with the nightlife in the previous life, there was nothing else to do at night in the Song Dynasty except the lantern festival.

Yizhou is located in a place where commerce is prosperous, but it has many rare and exotic things, which is also boring.

Compared to the rare happy time they were having, in Bianjing, thousands of miles away, a contest between father and son was taking place.

In the study of the Prince's Mansion, all the eunuchs and maids had already been driven away, leaving only a handsome man standing beside the desk, who was undoubtedly Yan Shuang.

"Bang!~"

Hearing a loud noise, Zhao Pu's hand suddenly clenched into a fist, and he slammed it heavily on the table, saying in a cold voice: "What does the emperor mean? He clearly knew that it was the second son who did this, but he didn't care. He even let her take the job of the Ministry of Personnel at the morning court today."

Yan Shuang glanced at the broken teacup on the ground and said slowly, "I asked the Ministry of Punishment to check. After His Highness met with the Emperor, the Emperor summoned His Highness."

"What did they say?" Zhao Pu asked repeatedly.

Yan Shuang shook his head. He was a minister. Both Emperor Song Zhen and Zhao Pu were monarchs. He still had to know his limits as a minister.

As the saying goes, there is an order between the ruler and his subjects. There are some things that he only needs to know a little bit. Any more would be too much and would be disadvantageous to him.

Zhao Pu was naturally not stupid. How could he not hear the subtlety in Yan Shuang's words?

The profound meaning behind this is self-evident.

If the Ministry of Punishment really finds out some inside information, then it would not only be the second brother's business, but his own business would also be exposed.

"If you can't find out, then you can't find out."

Zhao Pu waved his hand, and nonchalantly went down the stairs using Yan Shuang's steps, saying, "The second son is taking over the Ministry of Personnel. What does father mean by that?"

Yan Shuang calmed down, pondered for a moment, stroked his hands slightly, and said in an uncertain tone: "Your Highness! Maybe the emperor really has no other intentions?"

"Kejun! You are the only one who said this. If it were anyone else, I would have killed him long ago."

Zhao Pu's tone softened as he spoke to this point. He stroked his hand and said, "Sit down first."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Yan Shuang thanked him and sat down.

If he were an ordinary person, he would probably have to give in to Zhao Pu, but he had been studying with his mother since he was a child and knew the temperament of the royal family.

If the Xie family wants to move to a higher level, they must get the approval of the superiors. The most important thing is to be obedient and to be humble when necessary, which is obviously not suitable in the current situation.

After Yan Shuang sat down, he looked at Zhao Pu with a sad face and felt a little sad in his heart. He was misled by the imperial studies taught by the Prince's tutor.

The Song Dynasty was established only a hundred years ago, and Taizu passed the throne to Emperor Zhen of Song. There was no situation of fathers slaughtering their sons or brothers killing each other.

The imperial academic knowledge taught by the Prince's Tutor will only appear in the future succession of the throne. What's more, the current monarch is a man with clear eyes and a clear mind.

Thinking of this, Yan Shuang stroked his hand and said thoughtfully: "Your Highness! Perhaps you really misunderstood the emperor's meaning."

"Kejun! It's not that I don't trust you, but I don't trust the second brother. Now that the throne of the Eastern Palace has been established, why hasn't the emperor made the second brother a king yet? Is keeping him in Bianjing to make me a fool of myself?"

At this moment, Yan Shuang seemed to have guessed the intention of Emperor Song Zhen. The emperor's intention should be to give this favor to the next monarch.

I hope to have another brother to support me so that we can jointly create a prosperous Song Dynasty and restore the old sites of the pre-Tang Dynasty.

Unfortunately, Zhao Pu's mood had been affected. He was just a study companion and had no right to interfere. But when he thought of the current predicament, he did not dare to offer any advice.

"I wonder what Your Highness intends to do?" Yan Shuang asked, stroking his hand.

"solitary......"

When Zhao Pu opened his mouth, he didn't know what to do. After all, it was Emperor Zhen of Song who decided personally in the court that the second son would move into the Ministry of Personnel.

If he submitted a memorial to refute it at this time, it might be refuted by Emperor Song Zhen, and he would not only not get any fish to eat, but also get into trouble.

Thinking of this, Zhao Pu waved his hands helplessly and said, "Let's take it one step at a time. As long as Lao Er doesn't press the insertion, I will calm down and see what medicine he sells in the gourd."

"Your Highness is wise."

Yan Shuang hurriedly stood up and stroked his hands, saying: "At this moment, we can only respond to all changes with constancy and find the way in stillness."

"Yeah!~"

Zhao Pu nodded, and suddenly changed the subject: "By the way! How is the investigation of the Lian Family Chamber of Commerce going? If we can find out who is behind this, maybe we can ask for a favor from our father."

"Hey!~"

Yan Shuang shook his head and said helplessly, "There are too few clues, and there is nothing abnormal at all. I just hope that the information brought back by the Ministry of Punishment this time can change the current dilemma."

"I'll be very sorry for that. It's already night, so I won't keep you here any longer. Please give my regards to my cousin on my behalf."

"Your Highness is very busy with affairs of state. You don't need to worry too much about such matters. I will take my leave." Yan Shuang bowed and left the study.

Yan Shuang's mother was the monarch of Pingyang and was a cousin of Emperor Zhen of Song, so it was not an exaggeration for Zhao Pu to call her cousin, but Yan Shuang did not dare to take on such a responsibility.

The so-called heartlessness of the Heavenly King is secondary, and the saying passed down from mouth to mouth by the people, that the first generation of relatives, the second generation of representatives, the third and fourth generations will go and ask for help, is more in line with his state of mind.

Compared to Zhao Zhen's rage in the Prince's Mansion, Zhao Qian in the study of Xiyuan in the royal villa was sitting in front of the desk with a calm expression.

He closed his eyes slightly, recalling the court meeting this morning. When Emperor Song Zhen announced in front of all the civil and military officials in the court that he would be in charge of the Ministry of Personnel, he couldn't help but feel a ripple in his heart.

At this moment, the surroundings were quiet. The peaceful atmosphere made his thoughts drift away gradually, and he couldn't help but recall the scene in the Qinzheng Hall a few days ago.

"Qian'er! You are also an excellent child of your father."

Emperor Song Zhen said this, and gently patted the chair under him and said, "But there is only one chair. For you two brothers, I can only give it to him."

"But the child is no worse than the elder brother, why......"

Emperor Song Zhen raised his hand to stop Zhao Qian from speaking, and said earnestly: "Pu'er is the king who guards the city. You have too strong a desire to kill. The current national strength of the Song Dynasty cannot withstand your torment."

Emperor Song Zhen also realized that his tone was a bit heavy when he said this, and then he changed the subject and said: "If you were born a few decades later, you might be able to show the demeanor of the former Emperor Wu, but the Song Dynasty now needs to recuperate with the people."

Emperor Zhen of Song Dynasty was very generous in his affirmation of Zhao Qian. The words "maybe he can show the demeanor of the former Emperor Wu" were the highest recognition of him.

Thinking of this, Zhao Qian slowly opened his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Father! Just as you said, there is only one such chair in the world. At most... I will spare your life in the future."
