The General Is As Urgent As Law

Under the careful care of Imperial Physician Li, the emperor's spirit improved a lot, at least from the look of his face.But the emperor knew in his heart that this was just a flashback, and only he knew how false his inner foundation was.

Being able to get out of bed and walk around freely, the emperor immediately began to deal with the mountain of memorials.

Since Cen Lixuan went to Anshang Hall and made a statement of his kinship with the emperor, he went to Anshang Hall every day.Either cook soup and medicine for the emperor with his own hands, or accompany the emperor to deal with the government affairs.Cen Lixuan was not a talkative person, the emperor acquiesced that he could go in and out freely, so he didn't talk too much, he just sat aside and read a book, reminding the emperor to take a break from time to time.

The emperor was looking at the excerpt that day, and he didn't even notice when Cen Liyu came.In his hand was the memorial handed over by Xue Changfeng, and the words in it were just as he expected, and they were all pleading for Xue Jin.The writing brush stained with cinnabar was lifted and put back and forth several times. The emperor hesitated for a while, and finally put the brush back on the pen holder: "Xue Changfeng, that old bastard!"

Only then did he raise his head, and saw Cen Liyan sitting beside a few desks specially placed for him, reading a book.

Hearing this, Cen Lixuan slowly put down the book in his hand, and his eyes naturally fell on the angry emperor.

"When did you come here?"

"I've been here for a while, but did you disturb Father?"

"It's nothing, you can just sit down." The emperor said, sighed deeply, and his complexion also turned bad.

Cen Lixuan looked at his appearance, frowned and said in concern: "Father, don't get angry."

Eunuch Mu happened to bring ginseng soup over, Cen Lixuan got up immediately, took the ginseng soup from Eunuch Mu, handed it to the emperor, and said, "Father, please drink the ginseng soup first."

The emperor gave him a deep look.

After Cen Lixuan cried so much that day, he came to see him every day.When he was in his prime, he never cared about his son and daughter's concern, but now that he is old, he realizes that this concern can really warm people's hearts.But if Cen Lixuan's mind is really so simple, the emperor will inevitably be suspicious.

He took the ginseng soup, took two sips and put it down.Cen Lixuan obediently and thoughtfully handed over the silk for the emperor's use, the emperor casually wiped his mouth and said, "Aren't you wondering what makes me so angry?"

"No matter what it is, father should not be angry." Cen Lizhen said, and turned back to his seat, no more words.

No matter how the emperor looked at it, he couldn't see any flaws in Cen Lixuan's body - he was born with a destructive appearance, especially now, his expression was cold, except for some fluctuations in expression when caring for the emperor, the rest of the time he always took it calmly, as if The matter of establishing a reserve that everyone cares about has nothing to do with him at all.

Seeing the emperor looking at him like this, Cen Lixuan said again: "Did the minister disturb the emperor?"

"It's nothing, you can continue to read." The emperor said, his eyes glanced at the unrevised memorial again.Xue Changfeng counted the Xue family's great military exploits in it, mentioned the deceased Xue Yuanshan, and at the end said, "The concubine Jin gave birth to two princes, and she has worked hard and done a lot of hard work." This is nothing more than reminding the emperor that Xue Jin still has the Xue family army behind him.

How could such a naked threat keep the emperor from getting angry.

The blood of the Xue family was the same, and the quiet Cen Lixuan in front of him comforted the emperor for a while.

The emperor hesitated again and again, and still made some irrelevant comments on the memorial, and then picked up other documents to continue reading.

Jiang Ye had to accompany Cen Liyu to the Anshang Hall every day, but since then he never dared to step into the Anshang Hall.Thinking of his casual attitude towards Master Qi before, what if the emperor took it to heart a little and wanted to clean him up?But the emperor has a lot of things to do every day, maybe he will forget it when he can't see anyone?With this kind of luck in mind, Jiang Ye stood outside Anshang Hall every day, either chatting with Wei Lin who happened to be nearby, or chatting with other palace people in Anshang Hall.

It is only now that he knows why Wei Lin loves to chat so much.The mouths of the people in the palace are really talkative. If there is any trouble in the palace, everyone will know it immediately, but on the surface it is still calm.

As for Concubine Jin being grounded, the emperor never explained why, but Jiang also heard a lot of rhetoric from the eunuchs from a young age.However, there are many versions, and Jiang doesn't know which one is the truth. He guesses that the emperor is seriously ill and has something to do with Concubine Jin.

Jiang was also in a daze when he suddenly heard footsteps approaching. He raised his head too much and saw a man dressed like a prince approaching the gate of the Anshang Hall.But Jiang couldn't recognize who this person was, so he could only wait for the palace man next to him to salute, so he knelt down and said vaguely, "I have seen... the prince."

The people next to him naturally knew who the princes were, and even after paying respects with Jiang Ye, they knew it was the third prince.

The third prince should be the elder brother of Cen Liyu's mother and compatriots.

The third prince looked hurried, and gave a absent-minded "hmm", and hurriedly found a familiar little eunuch and asked, "Is the emperor in there?"

"The emperor is correcting the memorial inside." The little eunuch replied truthfully.

"Notify me, I have something important to see Father." The third prince said hastily.

The little eunuch showed a look of embarrassment...Earlier, the emperor ordered him not to see anyone, and only Cen Lixuan came in and out of Anshang Hall recently.

"This... Your Majesty has told you that no one will come, so please come back, Third Prince." The little eunuch said hesitantly.

Cen Lijin couldn't let it go, he looked anxious, poked his head and looked inside.The little eunuch stretched out his hand to stop him, but he couldn't stop his sight. With a closer look, Cen Li saw that besides the emperor, there was another person in the hall.

"If father-in-law doesn't notify me, then I'll force my way in." Cen Li said shortly.

"No way, Third Prince, you..." The little eunuch was already sweating before he finished speaking.At this moment, Eunuch Mu is inside, he is a little eunuch, and he can't stop the third prince at all.

Cen Lijin made a show, and the eunuch behind him stepped forward to drive him away.

"Father, Father!" Cen Lijin shouted, striding into the Anshang Hall.

Seeing that the emperor, who was in a slightly better mood, Cen Lixuan, heard these shouts, and his face turned ugly instantly.He put down the booklet, and Cen Lijin came in and knelt down quickly: "I pay my respects to my father."

"Greetings? Didn't you hear my order? Is the slave outside dead?" The emperor was furious, but he said the second part to Eunuch Mu.

Eunuch Mu hurriedly took two steps forward, and said to Cen Lijin: "Your Highness, please go back, the emperor is not in good health recently." After saying that, he bowed and moved forward, and said in a low voice: "The emperor is angry at the moment, three The prince is still..." Before he finished speaking, Cen Lijin seemed to have not heard, and he fell on the ground and said to the emperor: "Father, I don't know what the mother and concubine did wrong to make the father so angry, but the mother and concubine have always been considerate. Weak, if the emperor is really angry, I would like to take it on my behalf." He kowtowed heavily on the ground, got up again, and looked at the emperor solemnly.

By the way, Cen Lijin could see clearly who was sitting next to him.He never thought that Cen Lixuan would be in Anshang Hall.Especially the little eunuch outside said that the emperor would not see anyone. Looking at it now, it does not include the Ninth Prince who no one cares about.

A bad premonition rose in Cen Lijin's heart.

Seeing that the third prince came to intercede for Xue Jin, the emperor was even more annoyed: "Get out, get out immediately."

"Father calm down, the emperor is only anxious about the matter of the mother and concubine, so he will lose his courtesy." Cen Lixuan stood up and said.

"He only cares about his mother and concubine being weak. I have been ill these days, but have I ever come to say hello?" said the emperor.

Cen Lijin hurriedly wanted to explain: "My son..." "Needless to say!"

But before he could say anything, the emperor interrupted: "You are busy trying to win over the ministers, and you are in the same breath as the Xue family, how can you have the time to visit your long-sick father?"

After finishing speaking, he coughed heavily twice, looking bad.Cen Lixuan stepped forward anxiously, wanting to please him, but the emperor waved his hand, stopped coughing and continued: "Go out."

Cen Lijin wanted to say something else, but looking at the emperor's expression, it was probably useless to say anything.

He couldn't figure out why Cen Lixuan, who was always regarded as non-existent, would be in Anshang Temple at this time.Father Huang didn't even want to see him, but he was still willing for Cen Lizhen to stay here.Thinking about how Cen Liyan helped him go out of the palace to find Xue Changfeng the day before yesterday, now I really don't understand what Cen Lixuan did.

"Third Prince, please." Eunuch Mu stretched out his hand and said.

Cen Lijin opened his mouth slightly, unable to say anything, rubbed his dry lips twice, kowtowed his head again and said, "I'm sorry..."

Jiang also stood outside for so long, and Cen Lizhen and the emperor didn't speak very loudly, and he didn't even expect to eavesdrop, but who knew that when the third prince entered, the voice inside suddenly became louder.It seemed that the emperor was furious. Just as he was thinking about it, the third prince came out of the room in disgrace.

Eunuch Mu followed, gently closed the palace door, and said to Cen Lijin earnestly, "Third prince, your majesty's health is getting worse day by day, why bother to make him angry."

"Eunuch Mu..." Cen Lijin showed a bitter smile, "I really don't know why the concubine mother is suddenly grounded."

As he was talking, he suddenly said: "Eunuch Mu, please take pity on me, can you tell me something?"

Eunuch Mu looked at him with some embarrassment, moved closer, and said in a low voice, "Concubine Jin colluded with Imperial Physician Xu, you'd better ask Concubine Jin about this matter."

"But mother concubine is grounded now, I can't even enter Lianshuang Palace."

"I can't help this slave, please don't worry, Third Prince, Mo Laian has been in the palace these days."

After finishing speaking, Eunuch Mu bowed slightly, "The slave still has to go in to serve, Third Prince, go slowly."

"Ugh……"

Jiang also looked at the side for a long time, only to think that Cen Lixuan was really capable.The same is the prince, the third prince who was expected to be the third prince is suddenly treated coldly here; on the contrary, Cen Liyu, who is not cared about, is now serving around in the Anshang Palace every day.As the saying goes, there is a three-point love when meeting, even if Mu Huatian has no one standing behind Cen Lizhen, it seems that Cen Lizhen has an advantage now.

What's more, others don't know, but Jiang Ye knows it clearly in his heart.There are not only people behind Cen Lixuan, but also the powerful Xue family. It depends on how Xue Ziqin persuades Xue Changfeng to transfer to Cen Lixuan's sect.

Jiang also thought about the things inside carefully, thinking that if Concubine Jin lost her power and the third prince did something wrong to completely anger the emperor, then the Xue family would have to stand behind Cen Lixuan.

He thought Cen Lixuan was strange at first—he had no power or power before, but the one who picked him up that day was obviously the eunuch who served the emperor in front of him.It can be said that if Eunuch Mu was encouraged to personally pick up people into the palace, Cen Lixuan's power is probably far more powerful than what others have seen.

Just as he was figuring out in his mind, An Shang went to the entrance of the hall, which was deserted for a while, and the door opened with a creak, calling back Jiang Ye's spirit.

When Cen Lixuan came out, Jiang Ye gave him a slight nod, followed behind him again, and left.

The two walked in the palace one after the other for a while, when Cen Lixuan suddenly asked, "Brother Wei has been out of the palace recently?"

Jiang also thought about it, then shook his head: "It seems not."

"In this way, you ask Big Brother Wei to help you find out if there is any movement from the Northern Army." Cen Lixuan said indifferently.

"The general is going back to the capital?"

"Who knows." Cen Lixuan's voice was very soft, with an indifferent tone in his tone, as if he was talking about something unimportant, "It's just that Cen Li is looking for Xue Changfeng, I guess Xue Changfeng will send troops over as a deterrent. It won't happen Sitting still waiting to die will really make Concubine Jin lose power."

Jiang also noticed that when Cen Lixuan called his mother, he also called her concubine Jin like others.

Cen Lixuan really has no affection for his relatives.He pretended to be so condescending in front of the emperor, only wanting to be at Cheng Huan's knee. If Jiang knew the inside story, he probably wouldn't be able to see the slightest hypocrisy.

But this is not Jiang Ye's business after all, he just said indifferently: "I know."
