It is really a happy and sad thing that a person who was born in the center of power has no desire for power.

"Jing'er, have you ever thought that if one day you hold great power, Concubine Chen will not have to be manipulated by others, the Queen Mother will not be calculated by others, and even Xiaoba can control her life by herself without being influenced by others. No one will make you do what you don't want to do, not only that, you can also protect anyone you want to protect, Huabo and Huzi may not die, and Marshal Wu will finally get his wish."

Jing Yi didn't raise his head, and asked in Xue Yao's arms in a muffled voice, "What about you?"

"Me? I will always be by your side. If you are in the imperial city, I will be in the imperial city. If you are in the rivers and lakes, I will be in the rivers and lakes."

Jing Yi didn't know what to think of, muttered a few words and then laughed out loud.

"What are you laughing at?"

Xue Yao asked curiously, is it not good that he can still laugh when he is so serious?

Jing Yi raised his head, "I said, if there is such a possibility, you probably have to become a eunuch, so that I can take you with me all the time and never leave for a moment."

He didn't know what was going on in this man's mind, Xue Yao stretched out his fingers and flicked his forehead vigorously.

"Are you going to eunuch me? Then what about your future happiness?"

"..." Jing Yi blushed when he said that, "Dirty."

Xue Yao, "...Hey, this is a very serious topic, okay? Besides, you were the one who brought it up first."

Jing Yi got up, propped up his arms, his eyes sparkled, then leaned over and pecked Xue Yao lightly on the lips.

"If it's really necessary, I'll do it."

Xue Yao was so scared that he felt that the air was leaking when he stepped down his pants.

"Hey, hey, I don't want it, it hurts like that."

Jing Yi smiled happily, "You are right, I want to protect you, from now on, I will not let anyone hurt you again. I swear."

Such sincerity made Xue Yao unable to bear to tease, "I believe in you, I believe that my Jing'er can do it."

Ever since he accepted the emperor's summons, Zhang Jin was both happy and worried. The happy thing was that the emperor was finally willing to deal harshly with Xue, and told him to investigate as much as possible. The more criminal evidence, the better.What is worrying is knowing that the sixth prince is dead, which makes him more than a little worried about the future of Shenji. Even if the Xue family is brought down, as long as the prince is still the prince, they will always make a comeback.

It's a pity that the sixth prince is dead. Even if the emperor hates the Xue family, he can't kill his only son. Who will inherit this great country.

Thinking of this, Zhang Jin was extremely bored.

If the prince is not dead, how can he get revenge for killing his son?

He was scratching his head here, while Su Lan watched happily.

Zhang Jin looked at him and smiled, feeling even more unhappy, "Do you think the sixth prince is really dead?"

Su Lan, "Have you found the body?"

"No, if you really find it, why don't you use me to guess here?"

The old god Su Lan was at ease, leaning on the rocking chair and swaying. It's almost winter, and the weather is very cold. There are still people who like rocking chairs, and they don't think it's too cold.Zhang Jin looked a little disgusted.

"That's right, no body means the person is still alive."

Zhang Jin also felt strange, "I'm just wondering, why don't you say you're worried at all."

Su Lan was even more incomprehensible, "There is nothing to worry about. There must be a way for a car to reach the mountain, and the boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge. Worrying can't solve it..."

While he was talking, a feathered arrow shot in from the outside, and with a 'swish', it was nailed to the plaque where Zhang Jin was sitting.

Zhang Jin shrank his neck in fright, Su Lan jumped up from the rocking chair in one step, and asked with concern.

"How is it, are you hurt?"

I don't know who is so bold, even dare to enter the house to assassinate the minister in broad daylight.

Zhang Jin was about to call for someone, but Su Lan saw that there was no arrow coming in again, looked back at the feathered arrow, but saw a letter hanging on it, and said, "Stop shouting, first look at the words written on it. What."

When the two of them read the letter, they first excited Zhang Jin.

It turns out that the letter stated that the Xue family occupied an iron mine in Hongchou County for private use and cast weapons. It did not explain what these weapons were used for, but soldiers are dangerous, no matter which dynasty All generations are under the control of the state, and private creation is strictly prohibited.

The Xue family already has power in the government and the public, and they want to make weapons privately. This conspiracy is self-evident.

Once this crime is proved, even if the crown prince cannot be moved, the Xue family may not be saved. Thinking of this, Zhang Jin couldn't help but get excited, and wanted to go out.

Su Lan stopped him, "Minyu, don't act rashly. We must first find out who wrote this letter and what the intention is, so we can't follow the path of villains."

Zhang Jin was a little puzzled, "If the other party wants us to know who it is, how can they send me a letter in this way? Regardless of whether the matter is true or not, once the emperor finds out, there will naturally be Xue's bitter fruit. Is there any hindrance to us?"

"That's the case," Su Lan was still a little worried,

"Don't you think this incident is a bit strange recently? I always feel that there are hands behind the scenes to promote the development of the whole incident. We'd better be careful."

Zhang Jin knows that his old friend has always been cautious, and he can't be wrong if he listens to him, but this news really makes people want to let it go.

"In this way, I will go to the palace immediately, tell the emperor the news, and ask him to send someone to investigate secretly. If it is true, it is needless to say. If it is not true, it will not directly conflict with Grand Master Xue in the early court."

Su Lan nodded, "That's very good,"

It seems that Zhang Jin, a straight man, has learned his lesson from the fiasco of confronting the public directly before the early court last time, and has learned to be flexible.

Without further ado, Zhang Jin ordered someone to come in and summon the court clothes, and was about to enter the palace to order the saint. Since the last summon, the emperor gave him the privilege to enter the palace to see him at any time.

Su Lan was still a little worried, "Do you want me to go with you?"

Zhang Jin was wearing a girdle, "No need, the emperor is cruel to see this matter now, and when he thinks about the relationship between the prince and the Xue family one day, maybe he will settle the score after the autumn. My old life I don’t have any other ideas. It’s not good to pull you down again, or I will need you to work harder in the future.”

Before starting to walk, he started to think about retreating, which is also the habit of those who have been officials for many years. Su Lan heard that it was not easy to argue,

"Okay, you go, when you need me, I will not be too late."

After speaking, Su Lan went back to the rocking chair to lie down, poured himself a glass of wine leisurely and started to drink.

Zhang Jin was overjoyed, "I said, why don't you go back to your Nasu mansion? How can I have so much spare money to buy wine for you in this mansion? If you are here every day, if you drink me poorly, let me have a family here. The old and the young drink the northwest wind."
