Hearing what he said, Xiaoxue didn't understand that this matter must have something to do with the emperor.

Xiaoxue could see clearly how their emperor behaved by Yuan Zanbi's side all these years, but she didn't know what the emperor said, and even comfort was useless.

But Yuan Zanbi didn't mean to be yin and yang, because what the emperor said to him, it can be said that he didn't appreciate it.

The emperor said that he was the son of Yuan Congjing, the younger brother of Yuan Zanying, a famous family, and a long-time public official, his status was beyond words.

"Although the crown prince is cowardly, he is my son after all," the emperor blew on the tea lightly, and said with a smile towards Yuan Zanbi: "He has acted cautiously all these years, and he has neither made great achievements nor faults. I and the queen have a deep love for each other." I don't want to ruin the relationship between husband and wife." The emperor's evaluation of the prince was even gentle, not as ruthless as in front of King Huai, such words were close to heart-to-heart, Yuan Zanbi thought for a while quietly , thinking about whether he should cooperate with the emperor to show a flattered expression, but in the end he only nodded.

What he thought of was not the emperor's intimacy with his favorite ministers, but Qiao Yu.

Not all the rumors in the palace were written by Qiao Yu, but most of them were also inseparable from Mr. Qiao. He knew it, but didn't the prince know it?

What's more, Chen Qiutai's blood feud still exists between the two, and the instigator of this matter is the emperor, but so what?If the crown prince wants to appease the old man of the Chen family, the biggest and most sympathetic gift he can give is Qiao Yu's life!

"Chen Qiutai's fault..." the emperor mentioned it casually, and then he thought of something. After a moment of silence, he suddenly said: "Qiao Yu is very smart, but he is a bit impatient." He looked at Yuanzan pen, Yuan Zan pen with a smile You can even see your own reflection in these eyes, the emperor's attitude is very close, he should thank you.

"As the head of all the officials, Qiao Xiang is loved by His Majesty, so he must be extremely smart." Yuan Zanbi replied cautiously.

"Just doing things aggressively, without thinking about the outcome." The emperor's tone of talking about Qiao Yu was no different from that of the prince. "I thought he would naturally become more stable as he got older, but the result has not changed for several years."

When the young general who was flattered or humiliated heard the emperor's evaluation of Qiao Yu, he secretly clenched his fingers under his sleeve, and then let go after a while, saying: "Yes."

The emperor waited for his next words, and he was speechless after Yuan Zan wrote.

The emperor couldn't help but laugh, "Your temperament is nothing like your brother's."

Yuan Zan bowed his head, and said respectfully and sincerely: "I am stupid, and I can't compare with my brother."

The emperor looked at the taciturn courtier in front of him. When Yuan Zanying was still there, because of him, the emperor had seen Yuan Zanbi a few times. He only remembered that he was a calm child, but he was far less silent than he is now.

The emperor smiled. There are too many smart people around him with eloquent tongues. It is really hard to see someone like Yuan Zanbi who pretends to be stupid and has nothing to say to him. : "Yuanqing is the son of Marquis Qianji, and the younger brother of Yuan Cong. In the past, Yuan Ya and the Emperor Taizu clapped their hands and made an oath. They are already old, and the crown prince may ask Yuanqing to pay more attention to him in the future."

If Yuan Zanbi was really the emperor's confidant, he would probably kneel on the ground, deeply moved by the emperor's remarks, wishing to die to serve the country, but he was not.

So instead of being moved, he was so cold that he could barely hold the tea in his hand.

"Yuanqing." The emperor called him.

"Your Majesty." Yuan Zanbi put the tea on the table and stood up to respond.

But the emperor said: "Or is it that Yuanqing cares more about others?"

The emperor's question was gentle and harmless, as if he just mentioned it casually.

But what was mentioned casually was nothing but the position of the Ninth Five Supreme.

Yuan Zanbi immediately knelt down, bowed his head and said, "I dare not."

"The third son is too thoughtful," the emperor muttered to himself rather than telling Yuan Zan the pen. The third prince had a deep thought, which was no different from his back then. Back then, the emperor didn't like to look in the mirror, so naturally he didn't like this son even more, "The fifth child is too careless, the others are too young, the master is less suspicious of the country, and the destruction of the elders and the establishment of the younger will cause endless harm. Such a mark is left in the history books."

All that answered him was silence.

"The prince is soft-hearted. There are some things that he can't be bothered to do, and he shouldn't do them. A minister should be good at sharing the prince's worries," the emperor said, "Yuanqing, but?"

The emperor barely made it clear.

An indescribable coldness crawled up his back, making his tongue stiff from the cold, and that simple answer was terribly heavy, as if it weighed more than a thousand catties.

Yuan Zan wrote: "Yes."

His obedient answer made the emperor a little funny, he didn't know whether to laugh at Yuan Zanbi's obedience, or Qiao Yu's useless efforts to marry him that day.He should feel very satisfied, and he should also feel very proud, because Yuan Zanbi's answer was within his expectation, because Yuan Zanbi is smart enough and obedient.

But the emperor was inevitably irritable.

Back then, Yuan Zhanying dared to take the risk of his displeasure to argue with him because he was biased, but Yuan Zhanying, who was brought up by Yuan Zhanying, did not have the legacy of his brother.

The emperor thought, Qiao Yu's temper is indeed very bad, but it is too easy for him to buy people's hearts by taking advantage of others. After spending such a long time, Yuan Zanbi can't even say a word of intercession for him?

The emperor looked at his courtiers who were kneeling on the ground. The young people were obedient, which was what he wanted most.

The emperor frowned, and after a while, he unfurled and said, "Go down."

……

Qiao Yu hugged the cat, sitting by the bonfire boredly, scratching A Bi's soft fur with one hand, and playing with the fire with a twig in the other. Even the youngest princess would not sit idle and tease the cat like him watch the fire.

The light of the fire shone on Qiao Xiang.

Seeing this, Yuan Zanbi exhaled lightly, feeling that his body wasn't as cold anymore.

The emperor went out of the palace this time nominally to pray for the Empress Dowager, but he ordered the crown prince to supervise the country, but let the rumors seriously injure the prince.If you don't stop it, do you want to take this opportunity to abolish the prince, or...see who has the heart of disobedience and pave the way for the prince?

Qiao Yu's various actions were not only useless, but also touched the emperor's scales. It is useless for such a minister to keep him. The full body is still unknown.

Drawing a clear line with Qiao Yu may be the smartest way at the moment, not only to protect oneself, but also not to offend the emperor, and to please the prince.

Qiao Yu took out the twig covered with flames, and smiled very lightly.

Yuan Zanbi seemed to have not seen him smile like this for many years, so he stopped and stood not far away to look at him.

Sensing the sight, Qiao Yu raised his head slowly. When he saw the Yuanzan pen, he was in a good mood. He waved the twig unpreparedly, the smile in his eyes still lingering.

Although he didn't know why the emperor asked Yuan Zanbi to guide him, he was very happy to see Yuan Zanbi.

Yuan Zan pen thought, this is the best way to have the best of both worlds.

Yuan Zanbi thought, so what?
