Xie Xiang

Chapter 118

Liu Zaocha felt quite fast.

Since realizing the benefits of Xie Wen, once Liu Zao got something good, he wanted to send it to the prime minister's mansion for Xie Yi to use, wishing he could move her dragon bed there too.

It can make her think it's good, it's extraordinary.

On the fifth day after giving the wine, Fang Xiangshi presented a jade article, claiming that it would have the effect of expelling evil spirits and keeping peace forever.Liu Zao took it and looked at it, and saw that it was a yellow pendant. The jade was delicate, shiny and smooth. Although it was winter, it was warm and not ice-cold.Look at the patterns on the jade again, carved with dragon patterns.

The emperor of Zhou loved Kuilong, so before King Ping moved his capital, the bronze and jade wares used by the Zhou royal family were mostly carved with Kuilong patterns.

Liu Zao wore it on his body for a day, and after confirming that it was indeed ancient jade, he wanted to send it to Xie Yi, whether it was worn on the body or hung by the bedside, people nourish jade, and jade nourishes people.

She asked around and learned that Xie Wen was in the palace guard camp, so she had someone summon him.

As soon as he was summoned, Liu Zao realized something was wrong with just one glance.

In the past, when Xie Wen came to see him, he was in awe of a person who was not good at speaking, occasionally had excited words, talked eloquently, and was a clear-eyed person.This time, he is repelling from head to toe.

He didn't look directly at her, and lowered his head, as if he was worried about revealing his thoughts, and she felt it, but he couldn't bear it, and from time to time he quietly raised his head and looked at her, his eyes full of scrutiny.

Liu Zao played with Huangpei, which he held in his hand, as if it was just a new plaything, not a gift.She smiled and said to Xie Wen, "What have you been up to these two days? On the side of Jingwei, can you get started?"

"Your Majesty, it has been sorted out." Xie Wen replied.

He bowed his head to the ground and did not lift it up.Liu Zao looked him in the eyes, remained calm, and said kindly, "It doesn't matter if the rectification is not good, whoever doesn't obey the order, just say it to me, and I will stand up for you."

Xie Wen knelt on the square mattress, couldn't help but cast a glance at Liu Zao, there was inquiry in his eyes, and even more coldness, and he said submissively, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."

Liu Zao put Huangpei on the imperial case, and said, "I only called you here to tell you, if you have the number, go."

Xie Wen got up without hesitation, and when he moved, he brought the hem of his clothes fluttering. He saluted, "I will leave." Then he turned around and walked away. Although he tried his best to restrain himself, he still walked quite fast.

Seeing his back disappearing in front of the hall, Liu Zao leaned on the hidden pouch, snorted softly, and glanced at Hu Ao.

Hu Ao understood, stepped forward, and said respectfully, "Your Majesty."

"When I bestowed the mansion, I ordered you to put two people in. Are those two people still alive today?"What Liu Zao is most concerned about is the matter of becoming a queen.Xie Wen is the nephew of Prime Minister Xie, the most important thing is that he was taught by Prime Minister Xie since childhood, and Prime Minister Xie knows what kind of person he is.But it doesn't mean that she is completely relieved of him, after all, people will change.

Hu Ao laughed and said, "Yes, every three days, there will be news back."

"Are there any abnormalities recently?"

Hu Ao replied, "I have wanted to report to Your Majesty for a long time. The Marquis of Fenyin has not been to the Prime Minister's residence since five days ago."

Xie Wen was filial on a daily basis, and would go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to greet him every morning and evening, rain or shine, winter and summer.Suddenly estranged, thinking about it, I know there must be something going on.

But Xie Xiang never knew her.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, maybe it's just a small temper tantrum between the Marquis of Fenyin and the prime minister, it's just a family matter." Hu Ao advised.

Liu Zao raised his hand and pressed his forehead, and said lazily, "I hope so." But Xie Wen is not a child anymore, how could he lose his temper with his aunt, cut off contact with the Xiangfu, and become alienated, it must be a big deal.

I don't know why he fought well in the war, but he was so naive when he entered Beijing, as if he didn't know much about the world.I don't even think about him being able to sit firmly as a general of the hussars, and there is no place where she and Xie Wen are not supporting him.If the news of his discord with the Prime Minister's Mansion gets out, let's see if there is any obedience in the army.

Liu Zao vaguely guessed that it was probably related to her affair with Prime Minister Xie.

If so, Xie Xiang didn't know how sad he would be.When Liu Zao thought of Xie Yi being sad, he was both angry and anxious.

Xie Yi has also lost her mind these past two days, and it's not just because of Xie Wen.She thought about it a bit more, Xie Wen was her nephew, and he was usually a meek person, if he uttered bad words when he heard about her relationship with His Majesty, what would others think?

Secondly, if Xie Wen can't be relied on, who should be replaced.

She thinks she has some accuracy in identifying people, but she doesn't want to stumble on Wen'er.

This day is Li Wen's mother's birthday, the old man has lived a long life, she is now eighty years old, in the whole Chang'an city, I'm afraid I can't find three old people in their eighties.Since Emperor Wu, the great Han ruled the world with filial piety.All people in the world are devoted to filial piety.

For his mother's birthday, Li Wen didn't dare to take it lightly, and all the ministers in the court posted posts and invited them to the banquet.Xie Yi was also invited.

Ting Wei is very popular and holds a high position. If he has nothing to do with his invitation, he will happily go to the appointment. Even if he has something to do, he can push it and rush to Ting Wei's mansion to celebrate the old man's birthday.

As soon as they went to the Yamen, all the people called their friends and accompanied them, and went to Tingwei's mansion together.

Xie Yi was caught up in business, so she came out a bit late, and the winter days were short, when she went out, it was already dark.

The driver drove the car to the front of the mansion, Xie Yi boarded the car, was startled, slowed down, and got into the car helplessly.

Liu Zao complained, "What a delay, I was so hungry waiting in the car." Although it was a complaint, it didn't mean to blame, but it seemed to be looking for an excuse to act like a spoiled child.

Xie Yi has a good temper and didn't argue with her, instead she asked with concern, "Have you eaten yet?"

Liu Zao shook his head, "No, I was in a hurry to see you, and came here in a hurry when I was about to leave the office."

It's a pity that Xie Yi never had the habit of storing food in the car, so he could only touch her and say, "Be patient, I'll find some food for you when I get to Ting Wei's Mansion."

Today is Li Wen's mother's birthday, Liu Zao knew it, and she gave her a birthday gift two days earlier, and sent it to Ting Wei's mansion today.The car was quite big, so she tilted her body and lay down on Xie Yi's lap as a pillow. Xie Yi also adjusted her sitting position so that she could lie down more comfortably.

The driver drove the car very steadily, and the platform was wide and flat, so Liu Zao could not feel the slightest bump when he lay down.But she only slept on the pillow for a while, then got up and sat upright, said, "Are you tired?" Then she patted her leg, "You pillow me too."

How could Xie Yi be so informal, she was going to a banquet, and it would be rude to lie down with her robes wrinkled.Liu Zao also thought about it, patted himself on the shoulder again, and said, "Let me lean, it doesn't matter."

She kindly invited him, Xie Yi couldn't refuse, so he leaned on her shoulder.

Liu Zao bent his lips and tried his best to sit upright, showing a generous and reliable appearance.Xie Yi leaned on her shoulder, looked at her side face, and also smiled.

Before coming, Liu Zao was anxious and annoyed, and wanted to ask about Xie Wen, so as to comfort Xie Xiang, but when he got here, he was not in a hurry, lowered his head and pinched Xie Yi's fingers, and then said, "Close your eyes. "

Xie Yi asked, "What are you going to do again?"

Liu Zao blushed a little, but still insisted, "Close your eyes."

Xie Yi petted her, and closed her eyes as she said.Liu Zao's eyes were bright, and he said, "No peeping is allowed." He spread Xie Yi's palm up, then took out Huang Pei from his sleeve pocket, put it in her palm, then turned his head and kissed her Fang blushed and said, "Okay."

Only then did Xie Yi open her eyes, and seeing Huang Pei in her palm, she smiled and said, "Give me the jade again."

Liu Zao was careless and didn't realize that there was a word in her words, and said enthusiastically, "This is a gift from Fang Xiangshi. It is said that it has the effect of warding off evil spirits. You hang it on the bedside, and you may sleep peacefully."

Xie Yi also thought the same way, she already had a herring pendant on her body, and it would be a burden to wear Huang pendant.

Tingwei is an important minister, his mansion is not far from the center, and he arrived in a short time.

Liu Zao didn't want to be bored in the car, so he said, "I'll go with you." It's not surprising that Emperor Jia En came to the birthday banquet in person.

Innocuous and trivial matters, Prime Minister Xie mostly obeyed her, she was about to order the driver to stop and transfer to her own car, but she heard Xie Yi say, "Don't go."

Liu Zao was puzzled, "Why?"

Xie Yi looked at her helplessly, and said, "Once you go, you will be picked up by the whole family, and you will be restless. The old man is eighty years old, and he will live a good life, so why make a fuss about it?"

Liu Zao still didn't want to stay in the car, and muttered in a low voice, "No, it's not that she hasn't seen me before, and most of the important officials at the banquet are used to seeing me, so she won't disturb the old man." She thought about saying goodbye Acting like a baby, Prime Minister Xie will definitely soften his heart, and said, "I have been waiting for you for a long time, and I am starved to death. Let me go to a birthday banquet, and I will also be happy about the old man's longevity."

As soon as she acted like a baby, Xie Yi couldn't hold on anymore.

Seeing hope, Liu Zao shook Xie Yi's hand and said, "Let me go, let me go, let me go."

Xie Yi suddenly put on a straight face, and said seriously, "Don't act like a baby."

Liu Zao had no choice but to stop, slumped, and lowered his head.

Xie Yi softened her tone, touched her, and said, "It's in the car, wait for me to come back."

She refused to let her go, Liu Zao didn't dare to make up her own mind, and could only complain without force, "I must have to wait for a long time again."

A hint of pampering flashed across Xie Yi's eyes, and she shook her head secretly.

Liu Zao didn't think deeply about why Xie Yi didn't let her go. The fear she said about disturbing the birthday star was obviously untenable.But Xie Yi refused to let her go, so she obediently waited in the car and refused to go.

The mansion is full of guests.The prime minister arrived with birthday gifts, and all the guests stood up to greet him.

Xie Yi handed the birthday gift to the servants in Ting Wei's mansion, who was recommended by Li Wen, and met the old lady.The old lady is quite old, with silver hair all over her head, but she is in good spirits, her eyes are not cloudy, on the contrary they are radiant.In front of the prime minister, she didn't dare to be too big. After Xie Yi saluted, she also got up and returned the half salute, "Your Majesty is coming to the humble house, it really is full of splendor."

"The old lady is serious." Xie Yi said with a smile.

The old lady led her to sit beside her.

The banquet has already started, all the delicacies and wines are served, and all the guests are celebrating their birthdays one after another.The old lady's face was full of red, and she thanked them one by one, but she didn't look tired at all.However, everyone could see that the old lady seemed to have something on her mind, and she couldn't stop looking at the door.

Li Wen was filial, seeing that his mother was worried and couldn't be happy, he stepped forward and asked, "Is there any order from mother, and my son will do it with all his strength."

The old lady shook her head and sighed, "I'm waiting for His Majesty to come." Li Wen is in Jiuqing and is also the emperor's teacher. It is reasonable for the emperor to come to the birthday banquet, but now the banquet is halfway through, and there is still no holy car. Presumably it won't come.

Li Wen heard that his mother was waiting for Shengjia, he couldn't help being surprised, and asked, "Mother is looking forward to Shengjia, but do you have something to report to Your Majesty?"

The old lady glanced at him and was a little annoyed, "I am an old woman, what can I do to alarm Your Majesty? It is because of Lin'er, she has been released for several years and is not allowed to return to Beijing. If I kneel and beg Your Majesty at the birthday banquet, Your Majesty is merciful to this old lady, and maybe she will allow Lin'er to return to Beijing."

Li Lin has been away from Beijing for many years, and has disappointed Li Wen several times, he has almost forgotten that he has this granddaughter, and he has also forgotten that his mother loves her the most, so he often tries to get him to transfer her back to Beijing.If my mother begged His Majesty at the birthday banquet, His Majesty would not be able to refuse because of emotion and reason.

For some reason, Li Wen didn't immediately appease his mother, but instead gave Xie Yi an awkward look.
