The emperor's daily online flirting

"Who do you think Wang Junyan belongs to?" Xiao Jingyuan asked after taking a bite of noodles.

"Empress." Si Ruihan gave the answer with certainty, and this answer made Xiao Jingyuan raise his eyebrows, "Give me some porridge."

Si Ruihan glanced at him, pushed the bowl over, saw Xiao Jingyuan pouted, and put a spoonful into his mouth, "Wang Junyan took care of what the imperial concubine wanted to grab, and Wang Junyan dealt with it. If his unknown servant can have such courage, then the support behind him must be strong enough."

"Then he came to seek refuge with me, is it also the empress's intention?" Xiao Jingyuan asked.

"Three points of truth, seven points of falsehood." Si Ruihan scooped up another spoon, "Do you still drink?"

Xiao Jingyuan shook his head and tasted the bland taste in his mouth, "The taste is too bland, let the small kitchen make soup for you next time."

"Then why did he come to you? Did he do it on purpose today or was it really unexpected." Xiao Jingyuan asked while picking out side dishes.

"It should be the Empress Dowager's intention that he came to see me. The reason why it is today is also because of the affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion. He wants to use him to see how I react. As for today's appearance, it should be half an accident and half a coincidence." He did it on purpose." Si Ruihan said.

"He wants you and me to be separated?" Xiao Jingyuan asked.

Si Ruihan shook his head, "He can't be so stupid. He sent himself out to plant a seed of doubt at most. When someone else does something in the future, the emperor will have reason to doubt me as a queen. Misbehavior has confused the harem."

Xiao Jingyuan finished his last mouthful of noodles and put down his chopsticks, "So, you shouldn't give him a chance today."

"The emperor's reaction today surprised me." Si Ruihan said.

"Why, do you think I should deal with you in a fit of anger?" Xiao Jingyuan asked amusedly.

Si Ruihan sighed when he heard the words, and took a sip of the porridge on his own. Xiao Jingyuan stared at it for a while, "From tomorrow onwards, continue to drink the medicine."

Si Ruihan paused, and frowned subconsciously, "Yeah."

Seeing the reluctance in the other party's expression, Xiao Jingyuan held his wrist skillfully, "Before in the south of the Yangtze River, someone brought some sweet and sour fruits. It will be much better if you drink the decoction and eat one."

After drinking half a bowl, Si Ruihan put down his spoon, "Is there any news about Cao Xin?"

Xiao Jingyuan followed him with his eyes, and when he heard him ask this, a little ripple appeared in his heart, "From yesterday to today, the imperial study room can't put down the papers on the impeachment of Cao Xin, and Li Fu has to find a place to stack them up alone."

"Cao Xin was sought after by everyone when he was in a high position, but now that he has fallen from a high place, there are not a few people who are looking forward to stepping on it. Although the emperor has detained him in prison, he has not yet come to a conclusion. It is inevitable that people will panic." Si Ruihan said.

His cold and waveless eyes fixed on Xiao Jingyuan's body, "When does the emperor plan to deal with him?"

"Well, tomorrow morning, above the court." Xiao Jingyuan said with a smile.

Si Ruihan nodded, stood up and looked outside, Xiao Jingyuan glanced along, and found that it was raining outside, bit by bit.

"It's raining." Si Ruihan said flatly.

Yunhua Palace

Wen Chengxian was sitting on a recliner, with a landscape painting in front of him. The meticulous use of brushes and color palettes gave the whole painting a rare vitality. At the other end, Wang Junyan was kneeling there.

"Queen, what did you say?" Wen Chengxian looked at the ancient painting and asked.

Wang Junyan closed his eyes, and the pain in his legs became more obvious. He took a breath, "The queen didn't say anything, but there was a little sadness in her expression, as if there was something bothering her."

Wen Chengxian chuckled when he heard the words, "Of course he has something to worry about."

As he spoke, he glanced at Wang Junyan, "I heard that you met the emperor in Tenghui Pavilion?"

"Yes."

"In the future, you will have more contact with the emperor. The queen is not in good health. As a servant, you should know how to share his worries." Wen Chengxian said.

"Yes, I understand." After finishing speaking, Wen Chengxian waved his hand, and Wang Junyan retreated out.

Sun Qing stepped forward to pour a cup of tea for Wen Chengxian, and Wen Chengxian rolled up the painting little by little, "This child from the Wang family is quite capable."

"The Empress Dowager wants to support the Wang family?" Sun Qing asked.

"If he's smart enough, it's okay to support the Wang family." Wen Chengxian finished the scroll and put it aside.

After leaving the Yunhua Palace, Wang Junyan limped towards his bedroom, and the servant behind him frowned, "My lord, we..."

Wang Junyan raised her hand to stop him, "Talk more, make more mistakes."

When he came outside his palace, he saw Fu Ling standing there with a porcelain bottle in his hand, and when he saw him coming back, he stepped forward with a little dissatisfaction on his face.

"This is a reward from the Queen, go back and apply it on your legs."

Wang Junyan looked at the turquoise bottle with a hidden soft light in his eyes, and reached out to take it, "Thank you."

After returning to the house and closing the door, Wang Junyan raised her head and closed her eyes, holding the bottle tightly in her hand, and it took a long time to suppress the churning emotions in her heart.

next morning

In the court hall, regarding how to deal with Cao Xin, the officials kept arguing with each other. The huge palace was like a noisy street, and Xiao Jingyuan's head would explode when he heard it.

He cast his eyes on the old prime minister who had been silent all this time. Si Tenghui naturally noticed Xiao Jingyuan's expectant gaze. He raised his hand to stroke his beard and was about to take a step when he was snatched away by the people on the side.

"Your Majesty, although Cao Xin made a big mistake, there is not enough evidence of collusion and corruption related to him, so it is not appropriate to make a conclusion at this time."

As soon as this person's words came out, everyone stopped their clamor. Xiao Jingyuan looked at him with a little bit of condensed eyes, "Liu Shangshu, I gave the Ministry of Punishment such a long time, but still haven't found anything?"

Liu Guan has a rigid and stern face, his expression is solemn when he is silent, and he has a murderous air all over his body, "Your Majesty, the Criminal Department has been working day and night to search Cao's house and arrest all those involved, but there is no conclusive evidence. .”

Xiao Jingyuan stared at him, and the corners of his lips curled up for a while, "The roster I got is not evidence? The imperial court officials are entangled with many things in the Southern Region, and Concubine Hui tried to assassinate me. There is no evidence for these?"

"Your Majesty, Concubine Hui has died on her own." Liu Guan said.

"Liu Shangshu is the head of the criminal department. Could it be that he hasn't even understood the laws of our court? Assassinating the emperor is a felony for exterminating the nine clans." Old General Li said with his eyes narrowed.

"Your Majesty, I naturally know that I just want to ask the Emperor to give me a few days to wait until I thoroughly investigate the case involved in Cao Xin, and it will not be too late to convict me." Liu Guan cupped his hands.

"My lord Liu, when the emperor wants to convict him, he should also consider whether the Ministry of Criminal Justice has investigated the case. If you don't investigate the case for a day, Cao Xin will not die for a day. His life and death are not up to the emperor, but up to you. It's gone." The officer on the side said angrily.

"Liu Guan, have you forgotten about the way of monarch and minister?" Si Tenghui said coldly.

Hearing this, Liu Guan frowned and immediately knelt down, "I don't dare."

Xiao Jingyuan stared at him, the sharpness and scrutiny in his eyes made Liu Guan's back tense, and the coolness ran across his back, causing small shivering.

"Li Fu, declare the decree."

Li Fu took out the imperial decree and everyone knelt down to receive the decree. After the imperial decree was read, the place fell silent. Xiao Jingyuan got up and glanced at everyone, "Tomorrow at [-]:[-] noon, I will personally go to the execution ground to supervise the beheading."

After Xiao Jingyuan left, Liu Guan got up slowly, flung his sleeves and walked out. Old General Li moved closer to Si Tenghui's side, "What kind of medicine is sold in this Liu Guan's gourd, it's about to touch the Emperor's brow."

Si Tenghui stroked his beard, "He has a big family event, so he forgot his last name."

"By the way, speaking of this matter, I haven't looked for you, an old man. Didn't you say that our two families were getting married? Why did you let Hanyue's child marry Liu Guan's son in a blink of an eye?" Old General Li asked. road.

"A marriage from the royal family." Si Tenghui said with a sigh.

"What does the emperor mean?" Old General Li asked.

Si Tenghui glanced at him sideways, "It's what the emperor meant, and it's also what I mean."

"So, Liu Guan is so stubborn today, because he thinks that by getting married to you, an old bastard, he also got married to the royal family?" Old General Li raised his eyebrows and lowered his eyebrows, wondering.

"He wants to be the emperor's relative." After Si Tenghui said this, he strode out. Old General Li tasted it carefully, and followed quickly, "Little old man, I understand."

Prison

The jailer knocked on the door one by one with the tube containing the food until it came out. Cao Xin heard the noise in front of his prison door and raised his head, tremblingly got up and went over.

"I'll take you out tonight." The jailer left after saying this.

Cao Xin froze in place, and wiped his face trembling for a while, with a strong desire to survive in his gray and cloudy eyes.

After a busy afternoon, Xiao Jingyuan came to Teng Hui Pavilion while it was just getting dark, and shook off the rainwater on his body, he walked quickly to Si Ruihan's eyes, and touched his face with his skill.

The coldness made Si Ruihan shrink his neck, and Xiao Jingyuan laughed when he saw this, "Let's cool down."

"Go to the stove and bake." Si Ruihan was still covered with a blanket, and he was huddled inside.

Xiao Jingyuan obediently went to the stove next to him to keep warm, and while warming his hands, he said, "Would you like to go out with me later?"

Si Ruihan stopped flipping the book, "Tonight?"

"En." Xiao Jingyuan nodded.

Si Ruihan glanced at the blanket on his body, put on his shoes and walked to the stove, "Go and have a look."

Xiao Jingyuan glanced at him sideways. In his previous life, Si Ruihan was very afraid of the cold. Even in the early spring, he needed to be taken care of, otherwise he would be sick for a few days every now and then.

"Li Fu, go and get the fox fur cloak from the warehouse, and I'm preparing some warm soup." After finishing speaking, Xiao Jingyuan wrapped his hands around Si Ruihan's.

"Just go and watch the fun, and we'll come back when the fun is over." Xiao Jingyuan said with a smile.
