Although the imperial court did have a lot of trouble because of the matter between Xie Yuanjia and Fu Jinghong, they finally calmed down. After all, this is their private matter. Diligent in government and loving the people, he has never delayed any major events because of this. Even Li Shangshu and his ilk are embarrassed to assign the name of "beautiful and harmful to the country" to Fu Jinghong.

Xie Yuanjia's resistance can be said to be very small. There are almost not so many heart-wrenching plots on TV. He secretly sighed. The civil and military officials here are cuter, although the court is still full of quarrels. , but when it comes to critical moments, everyone supports him.

"Your Majesty, you've been critiquing papers for too long, so you should take a break." Lan Kou brought a plate of watermelons. It was just summer, and the palace began to put watermelons on them. They were all good varieties from the Western Regions. Sweet and crunchy, sometimes Xie Yuanjia doesn't want to eat, so he can eat half a watermelon all afternoon.

"Come on." Xie Yuanjia finished reading the brochure submitted by Xiang Chu, and nothing major happened in Linzhou. As usual, the two chatted a few words. He dropped the last word, put the brush back to its original place, and walked to the table. Sit down before and look at the cut pieces of watermelon on the plate. The chilled watermelon is cool, which is a good thing to cool off in this hot season.

"Where's Uncle Huang? Where did he go?" Xie Yuanjia took a small fork and put a small piece of watermelon into his mouth, but turned around but didn't see Fu Jinghong. Although they live together now, they don't always see each other. Together, each has something to be busy with.

Lan Kou replied: "My lord just went out. Seeing that you were busy, I didn't bother you. I told my servant that he will be back in an hour at most."

"Then leave some for the emperor." Xie Yuanjia took a small porcelain bowl next to him, thinking about saving half of it for Fu Jinghong.

Lan Kou hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, hurry up and eat. The slaves have already left the other side of the imperial dining room for the prince. These are all yours."

"You are really considerate." Xie Yuanjia smiled at Lan Kou, and asked again: "Do you want to try it too?"

Lan Kou laughed lightly, "Servants don't like to eat cold things."

Xie Yuanjia didn't push it back and forth any more. Holding the jade plate and taking small bites, he suddenly felt a lot cooler all over his body. After taking a few bites, the little eunuch outside came in to announce that Prince Chen had come down.

"Xuan."

Xie Yuanjia felt that he would not be able to finish this meal alone, and when he looked up, he saw Xie Yuanlan leading Xie Fengyi in, and he hurriedly greeted him: "Excuse me, it's just in time for you to come, I'm eating, let's go together."

Xie Yuanlan was in poor health and couldn't eat too much cold, so he sat at the table drinking tea, seeing Xie Fengyi sitting next to Xie Yuanjia eating together, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Fengyi seems to be closer to the emperor. Times were not so cute."

"I always give Fengyi delicious food, probably because of this he feels kind." Xie Yuanjia said with a smile, "Brother Huang is his father, Fengyi must be closest to you."

Xie Yuanlan just smiled and said nothing.

"I came to the palace to pay my respects to the concubine. It was too hot, and Feng Yi said he wanted to see the emperor, so I had no choice but to take him here to escape the heat." Xie Yuanlan said helplessly, "I didn't expect to disturb the emperor's food."

"It's okay, I can't eat it all by myself." Xie Yuanjia waved his hand and didn't care, besides, Xie Fengyi can eat as much as a child, and he's not a person like Fu Jinghong, who doesn't feel full after eating a whole by himself.

Xie Yuanlan sat for a while, and then said: "I was a little uncomfortable two days ago, and I lay in the mansion for two days, and then I heard about the emperor's affairs. The emperor...do you really want to have a relationship with the regent?"

Xie Yuanjia looked up at him, and he didn't see any malice or other malicious intentions in his eyes. It seemed that he asked this question just out of concern.

"I really want to be with the emperor."

Xie Yuanlan was silent, and suddenly sighed: "Although I have seen some clues a long time ago, I still can't believe it after hearing it with my own ears. I am not a pedantic person who doesn't know how to adapt, but a person like Fu Jinghong, after all, can't be let People are convinced."

"I'm just worried about whether the emperor will be let down." The worry on Xie Yuanlan's face did not seem to be fake at all, "He is a man with deep thoughts. I have known him for so many years, and I have hardly heard good things about him, so some Worried about the emperor."

"I know what kind of person the emperor is." Xie Yuanjia wiped Xie Fengyi's mouth, and said gently: "Many people in this world misunderstand him, because they have never really understood him. But I am different, I I can see what's in his heart."

"He treated me very well, and I want to give back twelve points."

Xie Yuanlan was silent for a while again, "In this way, the emperor really agrees with the regent, so the minister will not be that annoying lobbyist."

"No matter what you say, I am also the emperor's elder brother. Although I don't have such deep feelings, I am still the child of my father. If you have any troubles in the future, I will definitely go through fire and water." Xie Yuanlan looked up at him, his eyes were serious, "I... ...he sincerely regards the emperor as his younger brother."

Xie Yuanjia was taken aback for a moment, Xie Yuanlan was always cold and erratic, looking aloof and out of touch, unexpectedly he also wanted to be a good brother.

"I also take Brother Huang as my elder brother." Xie Yuanjia said with a smile, "Now there are only three of us brothers left. The Seventh Brother always stays at home and is bored at home. Only Brother Huang comes to talk with me when he is free. I also miss the emperor in my heart."

Xie Yuanlan smiled, his eyes sparkled with starlight, and his whole body seemed to be shrouded in a hazy holy light, like a fairy.

Xie Yuanjia's eyes were about to be blinded, he bit the watermelon and stared blankly at him.

Such a beautiful fairy beauty, don't say that she may have any intentions, if she really has some schemes, then she is willing, okay?

Xie Yuanjia, who was almost dazed by his beauty, secretly gave himself a small whip in his heart, he must not be fascinated by beauty, he must keep his mind steady!

He ate a few mouthfuls of melon in a daze, and after hearing what Xie Fengyi said next to him, he couldn't hear clearly for a moment and asked, "What did Fengyi say?"

Xie Yuanlan answered for him: "Feng Yi asked me when the opera troupe will set up the stage."

"What stage?" Xie Yuanjia asked curiously.

"It's just a grass-roots group of folks, and they play some crude scripts." Xie Yuanlan looked at Xie Yuanjia softly with her chin on one hand, and said with a smile: "Feng Yi went shopping with her nurse that day, and fell in love with it after listening to it for a while. , let the wet nurse take it all the time, it has been four or five days and the performance is not over yet."

"What is the story that is so attractive?" Xie Yuanjia asked Xie Fengyi, "Is it really so beautiful?"

Xie Fengyi nodded, and said in a childish voice, "It's pretty."

"It's about 'a civet cat for a prince'."

Xie Yuanjia was very familiar with this kind of repertoire, but he still had to cooperate with Xiao Fengyi, pretending he had never heard of it before and asked: "It sounds very interesting, Fengyi told Uncle Huang, what exactly did he say?"

Xie Feng is small, and it takes a little effort to understand the play, let alone retell it, but he still tries his best to summarize the language and explain it to Xie Yuanjia seriously.

"That's right, there is an emperor, he has a very beautiful concubine, the concubine is about to give birth to a little prince, the emperor is very happy." Xie Fengyi shook his head and looked decent, "I rewarded this beautiful concubine with many valuable things, the concubine is very proud, Bullying others in the palace every day, many people hate her."

"Later, the concubine was about to give birth, and the emperor was very nervous waiting outside the palace. The concubine was delivered by a very old witch, so everyone was very relieved."

"Then, the concubine finally gave birth to a boy."

When Xie Fengyi talked about this, he tilted his head and thought for a while, then said: "However, the boy died within a few days after he was born. The concubine was very sad. She was afraid that the emperor would not like her, so she consulted with the witch."

"So the sorceress secretly brought in a child of about the same age from outside the palace, pretending to be born by this concubine, and took the dead little prince out of the palace to bury him."

Although this version is quite fresh, Xie Yuanjia felt that it was all about changing the soup and not the medicine. Anyway, the royal family always had a green light on their heads, "Then what happened after that? After the prince was changed, was anyone discovered? Did the emperor find out the truth? "

"I don't know." Xie Fengyi sighed, "The opera troupe speaks very slowly, performing on the East Street and performing on the West Street, I don't hear it every day, and it hasn't finished yet. "

"I don't know if the emperor can know that his own little prince is long gone." Xie Fengyi looked worried, "But the child who was stolen into the palace is so pitiful, maybe he was stolen from other people's parents by a sorceress Yes, he has never met his parents."

Xie Yuanjia couldn't help laughing, he didn't expect Xie Fengyi to be so kind at such a young age, not only worried about whether the emperor would find out the truth, but also worried about what would happen to the child who changed into the palace.

"Feng Yi is such a good boy." Xie Yuanjia patted his head, seeing that he was really troubled by this matter, he comforted him patiently: "It's just a story, it's not true."

"Besides, I think that the child who was transferred into the palace may live a happy life. At least he has a father and a mother in the palace, right? Even if he is discovered one day, if he is lucky enough to survive, maybe he would like to return to the palace." To where he should have been?"

"Looking at it this way, do you think that either ending is good?"

Xie Yuanjia opened up a new idea, "Feng Yi, don't be sad."

Xie Fengyi looked at him with big eyes and said seriously: "Really?"

"Maybe?" Xie Yuanjia said with a smile, "There are many possibilities in the story, maybe it's just that good."

Xie Yuanlan, who was listening to their chat, kept silent and looked at Xie Yuanjia quietly, with a soft smile on his lips.

His eyes drooped slightly, hiding some of the dark light inside.
