There are many treasures in this country

Xiao Suo still wanted to go back, Shen Yan took him to the door with an umbrella, and held his hand to call him before getting into the car.

Raindrops from the eaves of the carriage dripped on his body, soaking most of his shoulders.Xiao Suo hid under the umbrella, turned around and asked, "What else is there?"

Shen Yan wiped his wet place with his sleeve, and said: "Tomorrow my confinement period will come, I will go to the palace to plead guilty, and I will see you then."

Xiao Suo nodded, Shen Yan took advantage of his unpreparedness, stepped forward to steal some incense, and said with a smile: "Okay, let's go."

"You're doing this again!" Xiao Suo looked around, afraid of being seen and spread to cause trouble.

Shen Yan patted his butt, and said indifferently: "Don't worry, it's raining so hard, who is staring at you!"

Xiao Suo glared at him, boarded the car and left.

Before dawn the next day, Shen Yan dressed up and entered the palace to face the saint.When he arrived at Linde Hall, Yan Jun had already answered inside, and Xiao Suo was also there.Shang Huai personally came out to ask him to wait outside, and he couldn't help beating his heart.

In the past, he was the first-class guard with a knife in front of the imperial court, and he always accompanied the emperor, inseparable, never had he waited outside the palace.Today is not what it used to be, and now it is even difficult to even see the emperor.

Just as he was thinking, King Qi suddenly came over with someone, and when he saw him, he smiled and said: "Why, General Shen is also waiting for orders outside?"

"As a minister, shouldn't it be right to wait for the edict to be passed on?" Shen Yan bowed to him, and then said: "The emperor is talking with Lord Yan and Lord Xiao from Yushitai inside. I'm afraid the prince will have to wait with the officials."

King Qi smiled, didn't answer, and went forward to whisper a few words with Xia Tian.The latter hurried in and out, and invited him in respectfully.Before lifting his foot, King Qi glanced back at Shen Yan again, and said softly: "General Shen, it seems that you and I are still different."

"That's natural, you are a prince, how dare you compare yourself to the last general." Hearing this, King Qi curled his lips.

Shen Yan was so angry that his nose slanted and his eyes slanted, he clenched his fists and made two secret gestures, but he didn't dare to speak, and said in his heart: "I see you still have a few days to dance around!"

Just now Huan Ye was playing chess with Xie Yi in the hall, the latter saw Yan Jun leading Xiao Suo to avoid him, he insisted not to allow it, and said: "I have something to hide from the teacher? But it's no harm to listen. By the way, recently Can you still work hard? The teacher should give him more guidance and care for me like he did back then."

Xie Yi pinched his beard with his left hand, and while he was bearding, he said: "The eldest prince is diligent, quick-witted and eager to learn. There is no problem in learning, but his personality is a little lacking. But the emperor doesn't need to worry, children are always spoiled." Yes. This is true for ordinary children, let alone a prince of thousands of esteem. According to the old minister, it would be better if he was older."

"How come I don't know this child's temper?" Huan Ye sighed, "It's because I'm not good, I've been busy with government affairs all day long, handed him over to the queen, and neglected to discipline him, that's why it happened."

Xie Yi hurriedly comforted him: "Is there any mother in the world who doesn't spoil their children, and this can't be blamed on the empress. The emperor is busy with the affairs of the state, and he spends all his time worrying about it. How can he have time to take care of it?"

"The matter of the emperor's heir is also a matter of the state!" Huan Ye dropped a white son, and said, "I have thought about it carefully, and I want to appoint him as the heir after the important affairs in the court are over, what does the teacher think?"

"This..." Xie Yi pondered for a while, and said: "The emperor's consideration is naturally correct, but... the emperor is not yet in his thirties, and now he is in a hurry to establish a crown prince. The rumors outside may not be good."

"Rumors?" Huan Ye sneered, "Rumours have never been good. I set up a reserve as soon as possible for the stability of the country. As for the mouths of the people in the world, they can't be blocked, so don't pay attention to them. Right and wrong, you have your own judgment."

"What the emperor said is true." Xie Yi paused, looked at Xiao Suo who had been standing there for a long time, winked, and said: "The old minister should step down first, Yan Yushi and Xiao Yushi are too vigilant to speak when they see the minister here. .”

"What are you talking about, my lord!" Yan Jun said hastily.

Huan Ye also said: "You don't need it if you say it, you don't need it. The teacher has always been a naughty boy, why is he restrained today!" He then told Yan Jun: "Speak up quickly if you have something to do. If you come here on a rainy day, you must have something important to do."

Yan Jun lowered his head and said, "I'm here to ask for an order. I don't know how the emperor wants my ministers to act on the case of Prince Qi?"

"Didn't I say that in the court that day? Strict investigation is required, not to be indulged lightly!" As soon as Huan Ye turned his head, he saw Shang Huai coming to report, so he interrupted, "Call the emperor to come in."

Since Xiao Suo came in, he has been tremblingly following Yan Jun. Hearing what he said just now, he thought that the emperor and even King Qi would go to prison for investigation. He didn't want to ask him to come in again now. salute.

King Qi waved his hand casually, saluted the emperor, called Xie Yi to get up, and said: "Is the emperor's illness safe now? At the end of summer, the four seasons change, the most vulnerable to the season, so be careful!"

Huan Ye smiled, ordered someone to sit down, and said: "Thank you, Uncle Huang, for your love, I can save it. It rains so much today, and Uncle Huang is not resting in the mansion, why do you think of coming to see me?"

King Qi's expression was calm, showing no signs of happiness or anger. With a smile on the corner of his mouth, he said: "The emperor has been sick for a few days, and I am worried about it, so I naturally want to come and ask. I heard that Liu Yuzhou wrote a letter to impeach the minister. The emperor has issued an order to deal with it strictly, I don't know what's going on?"

Huan Ye pointed to Yan Jun and said, "Yan Qing was asking me just now that the emperor's uncle came at the right time. Although the emperor's uncle is usually cautious, it is inevitable that the people he makes friends with are mixed, and there is nothing wrong with one or two black apples. Since Liu Yuzhou wrote the letter Shen Zou, as the emperor, I naturally have to investigate. It is one thing to clean up the officials, but it is more important to protect the emperor's uncle. If those villains dare to use the name of the emperor's uncle to commit adultery and evil, wouldn't they ruin the emperor? Uncle’s reputation? If he has false references, check it out to prove it. Uncle Huang don’t have to worry, just go home to rest, this matter is left to them to be handled by Yu Shitai, and has nothing to do with Uncle Huang.”

"So that's how it is." King Qi said lightly, "I've been talking about the wind and rain at home for the past two days, and I thought Yushitai was going to raid the house! If you really want to copy it, then don't bother the yamen. , I will let people move the house to Yushitai."

"What did the emperor say!" Huan Ye said, "You are my dear emperor, the flesh and blood of our family, if we really copied it, wouldn't we even copy the palace? Even if there is something, put it in the emperor's uncle." It's the same as putting it in my bedroom, and I'm most at ease. Uncle Huang, don't worry too much, so as not to cause criticism."

"The emperor's words are serious, how dare I accept it." King Qi got up and said, "Since this is the case, I will take my leave first."

"Go well, Uncle Huang, take care of yourself." Huan Ye nodded with a smile, and called Xia Xia: "Go and call Shen Yan in."

When King Qi was going out, he passed by Shen Yan, and the latter was about to give way when he whispered in his ear: "General Shen has dedicated half his life, but be careful that you will end up with Xiao Wang by different routes!"

Shen Yan couldn't help but startled.

Xiao Suo caught a glimpse of him coming in from the corner of his eye, lowered his head even lower, his neck was so stiff that he dared not move lightly.

Huan Ye didn't talk to Shen Yan, but said to Yan Jun: "Investigate what needs to be investigated, and try what needs to be tried. As for the uncle, there is no evidence, so don't wanton slander, you know?"

Yan Jun understood and nodded in agreement, but Xiao Suo was a little puzzled.The two had winks, and they quit in time, unwilling to embarrass Shen Yan in front of the emperor, but Huan Ye did not agree.

The atmosphere in the hall was embarrassing, Xie Yi saw this, he twirled his beard and smiled and said: "The emperor lost the chess, don't get angry, you won't pay the veteran!"

Huan Ye smiled: "Teacher is used to making fun of me." As he spoke, he cast two meaningful eyes on Shen Yan.

Everyone held their voices and held their breath, and the surroundings were so quiet that there was only the patter of rain.

Shen Yan knelt on the smooth marble floor, staring at his own reflection in a daze, and only half a day later heard Huan Ye's cool tone: "You're here."

"Yes." Shen Yan nodded, "I have been confined at home for a long time, but now I have repented, so I came here to plead guilty."

Huan Ye sighed, and said: "You have misbehaved, arrogant and rebellious, disregarding the overall situation, wantonly belittling the envoys of the vassal state, you should be severely punished. But since you said you repented, I don't want to be harsh."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Hang up your title first, and I have a matter for you to handle. If it is done well, then let it go. If there is another side issue, I will definitely not forgive you lightly."

Shen Yan kowtowed in agreement, and then asked: "I don't know if the emperor has something to hand over to his ministers?"

"It's the case of Uncle Qi, I think you've heard of it." Huan Ye said, "With Yu Shitai handling the case, I'm not worried about it. But this case involves a lot, I'm afraid there are people who can't be persuaded, what's more There are also forces in the world involved, and if you have to use knives and guns, you will assist one or two. I will decree that you will be given the post of "hand-picked case supervisor". I report back. Even so, you must obey the Yan Yushi's instructions in everything, and you must not make your own decisions."

Shen Yan repeatedly agreed, and after hearing Huan Ye's instructions to Yan Jun, he left with the two of them.

Xiao Suo followed behind them, not daring to make a sound, walked to the gate of the palace, and heard Shen Yan ask: "Did the emperor say how to investigate this case?"

Yan Jun glanced back at Xiao Suo, and asked him, "You want to ask too, don't you?"

"My lord is wise." Xiao Suo lowered his head in shame.

Yan Jun smiled at Shen Yan knowingly, seeing his face full of embarrassment, he said: "This case must be thoroughly investigated, but judging from the emperor's attitude towards Prince Qi, it seems that he doesn't want to kill everyone, but he won't condone it. Isn't he Having said that, there is no evidence to slander him wantonly, don’t you understand the implication? This is why we must find evidence to identify him.”

Xiao Suo was stunned, and couldn't help sighing—it turned out that the words between the monarch and his ministers were so subtle and profound. He thought he was matured in Yushitai, and he didn't want to compare with Yan Jun, but he was so naive and superficial.

When Shen Yan crossed the river, he demolished the bridge, pushed Yan Jun and said, "Go quickly, I have a few words to say to Mr. Xiao alone!"

"What is the general doing?" Xiao Suo hurriedly dodged, and then said to Yan Jun: "Your Excellency, wait for the next official, the next official has nothing to say to General Shen."

Shen Yan pinched his waist, and seeing him swallow an exclamation in shock, he felt a lot better, and said: "I have something serious to say, why are you so afraid, why are you hiding? We have long since separated It doesn't matter, now you are innocent, are you still afraid that he will misunderstand?"

Yan Jun shook his hand and said with a sneer: "I'm leaving, you can break it slowly." As he spoke, he really raised his umbrella and left.

Seeing that he had gone far away, Xiao Suo frowned and said, "What are you doing!"

"Fuck you!" Shen Yan smiled rascally, "otherwise what else can I do?"
