Prime Minister Chasing Her Husband

Li Yong left Beijing to pursue Jing Wenzhao, while Xie Xuan stayed in Beijing and was appointed by the emperor to examine Princess Tao Xianzhi.

He and Tao Xianzhi were acquainted with each other, and the two had always treated each other with courtesy, Xie Xuan never thought that one day they would be kneeling and the other sitting.Tao Xianzhi was born with all the attention, and he was appreciated by the late emperor since he was a child, and he was given a gold medal to enter the palace as a companion. A person like him, even when everyone is a commoner, looks superior and has two points of glamor.In addition, the Tao family had strict education, so even though he was imprisoned, he did not appear to be in a panic.

With this situation, Xie Xuan couldn't help feeling compassionate, he pushed back everyone around him, and got up from the chair himself, saying: "Brother Tao, get up and talk."

"Xianzhi is now wearing the body of a sinner, so he dare not."

Xie Xuan sighed, went to help him himself, and said, "Brother Tao, you are my benefactor, why should you be so?"

Tao Xianzhi still refused, saying: "Now the King of England is missing, I know that Your Excellency has ordered me to come to interrogate me, but Xianzhi just married into the royal family yesterday, so if Your Excellency wants to ask, I don't know anything. Therefore, the adults can go directly to the punishment, I have heard that Mr. Xie of Dali Temple has a good way of judging cases, and now it is enough to see him."

"Brother Tao!" Xie Xuan was inexplicably angry, "I know you have a deep relationship with the King of England, and I didn't want to find out the whereabouts of the King of England from you, let alone torture you. However, I want to know, Why? You used to be accompanied by the prince, and the prince was better with the second prince. If it is love, why not the prince and the second prince?"

"As I said, the criminal just married into the royal family yesterday and knows nothing about the royal family. It is your duty to judge the case. You don't ask questions and don't torture. It is inappropriate. If it is passed to the emperor, some people will criticize it. Besides, there are quite a lot of talk about adults in Kyoto nowadays. You don’t need to cause trouble for me, a sinner. Since ancient times, the emperor is so ruthless. He let you interrogate me because he believes you today. If you don’t do anything, he may believe others tomorrow. people."

Tao Xian's words awakened the dreamer, Xie Xuan couldn't help laughing at himself, he was just a pawn in the emperor's hands and could be abolished at any time.But let him see Tao Xian's execution with his own eyes, he still couldn't bear it, so he simply made a favor and transferred him to the young minister of Dali Temple who had just been promoted. Judge the captured "King of England".

The "King of England" who followed Tao Xianzhi into the palace to face the saint was just a little guy, not even the expert mentioned by Liufeng before.This man had already changed his clothes and had been hiding in Jing Wenzhao's carriage. This morning, he changed the person who played Jing Wenzhao last night on the way.So he only knew that after collecting the money, he could go to the palace to meet the emperor once, and the rest would not come out no matter how tortured he was.As for Tao Xianzhi, he bit him to death and said that he didn't know, and he couldn't make a sentence out of the criminal law of day trial and night trial.Xie Xuan still missed the old love in his heart, and when Tao Xianzhi was injured, he secretly sent people around him to deliver medicine to him.

After almost ten days like this, Tao Xianzhi suddenly asked the person who delivered the medicine to bring Xie Xuan a message saying that he wanted to see him, and that night Xie Xuan appeared in the dungeon with the medicine.

Tao Xianzhi's body is now full of scars, just as Xie Xuan thought, Xie Xuan couldn't bear it, and handed over the wound medicine.

Tao Xianzhi took the medicine, smiled weakly and said, "Brother Xie laughed."

Xie Xuan sat across from him and asked him again: "Brother Tao, why are you doing this?"

"Brother Xie, are you curious today, what am I looking for you for?" Tao Xianzhi tried his best to maintain his dignity, "Don't be afraid to tell Brother Xie, I'm full of grievances, I don't know who to tell, so I will I thought of the question Brother Xie asked me a few days ago. Why not the crown prince and the second prince, but him? Everyone knows that he is the most unfavored prince in Daqi."

"Brother Tao..."

"Brother Xie, please listen to me, Xianzhi came to you today to complain, brother Xie, please thank you for your patience."

"Brother Tao, just say it."

"Since Brother Xie mentioned it a few days ago, I have been asking myself this question repeatedly these days. In terms of talent and appearance, his three brothers are on par, and in terms of strategy, he is not inferior to the prince, but his personality is competitive. I don’t want to endure a little bit of injustice. How could I be tempted by him? Later, I thought about it carefully, probably because he is obviously a prince but is as easy to coax as a puppy.” Tao Xianzhi laughed to himself when he said this.

"Brother Xie has not been in Beijing for a long time, and the grievances and grievances of everyone in the Jingzhong clan may not be well understood. People say that the emperor is naturally ruthless. Today's emperor is against the empress, and the first emperor is against the first empress. The first emperor favored the first empress, and he has never accepted a new concubine for several years. There are two reasons for marrying Concubine Qi. One is that the family of the first empress is not powerful enough. This kind of favor caused dissatisfaction in the previous court, and the emperor had to expand the harem; secondly, at that time, Concubine Qi’s mother’s family, Duke Dingguo, had military power, and Da Qi was not peaceful at that time, and the barbarians from the north invaded, so the emperor asked him to lead the army So Concubine Qi married into the imperial palace the night before Duke Dingguo went to war, and she was made a concubine as soon as she entered. Later, when Dingguo fair ordered the barbarians to return, the empress would have her, and the late emperor promoted her to the throne. To be a concubine. When the third prince was born, there were already two elder brothers in front of him, both of whom were descendants of the empress. The empress knew that the first emperor favored the empress, and she never thought that her child could inherit the throne, so many years passed without incident. However, the empress is spoiled and spoiled, domineering in the palace, making troubles for the empress and the third prince all day long, and even the third prince is not allowed to study with her children. The first emperor blindly favored the empress, what she wanted to do Let them go as they please, and don't care about the empress and the third prince at all. When the third prince was eight years old, which was also the first year I entered the palace, the third prince wanted to go to the school to attend lectures, but the second prince stopped him and picked up stones to beat him. The surrounding palace people stood I didn't move, I didn't know the reason, so I went up and stopped him. I was a little taller than him at that time, so I sent him back to Concubine Qi Palace. That was the first time the two of us met. See, from now on he has been entangled with me like a puppy."

"When I re-entered the palace the next day, I found that he was waiting alone at the door of the study again. This time, he didn't go in again. Seeing me coming, I slowly took out an oiled paper bag from my arms and said it was his favorite pastry. , specially left a piece for me, I think it was that piece of pastry that moved me, Brother Xie, did I buy it too easily? You don’t know, he was standing there watching me finish eating, when I ate He kept looking at me secretly until the pastries were all eaten, I thanked him and said it was very delicious, he was satisfied, I will never forget that look in my life." Tao Xianzhi looked at Xie Xuan with a smile.

Xie Xuan didn't say a word, he didn't think this was a good bribe, after all, he was also tempted by Li Zhiyuan's candy that was about to melt.
