The news that Xiao Huai was not dead soon spread throughout the upper capital. Many people began to reorient themselves on how to get along with the Yongning Marquis Mansion.

Before Xiao Huai died, the emperor's attitude towards Yongninghou Mansion was both patronizing and wary. Now that Xiao Huai is not dead and has made great achievements, the emperor should be even more wary towards Yongninghou Mansion.

Moreover, now that Xiao Huai has not returned to Beijing, we don't know what his attitude is, so most of the dignitaries respect the Yongning Marquis Mansion but have no intention of having more contact with him.

Everyone was waiting and watching. For a while, the business of the guild hall was not as good as before. However, the places that were close to each other on weekdays, such as Nanlingbo Mansion and General Xiang's Mansion, as well as Qi Mansion and Xiaoyao Prince's Mansion, were as good as before.

Not to mention the Tang Dynasty Duke's Mansion and Wuyang Bo's Mansion, they are all in-laws, and one will be prosperous and the other will suffer.m.

On this day, Tang Shuyi was talking to Xiao Yuzhu about where Xiao Yuming had gone and whether the people sent out had found Xiao Yuchen. Butler Zhao trotted over to report, "Madam, there is an imperial edict from the palace."

"Who came to deliver the order?" Tang Shuyi stood up and asked.

"It's Eunuch Jiao who is in front of the emperor. He also brought many rewards." Butler Zhao said.

Tang Shuyi breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that she was not looking for trouble. She took Xiao Yuzhu to the front hall. When Jiao Kangsheng saw them, he quickly saluted, then looked around and asked, "Isn't the second young master here?"

Tang Shuyi sighed heavily, "I was in a hurry. Knowing that his father was not dead, I made a noise and went to the northwest. I didn't catch him and he ran away secretly. I just sent someone out to look for him."

Jiao Kangsheng was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Then you have to find it quickly."

Tang Shuyi sighed, "No, I'm going to die from worry."

Jiao Kangsheng sighed, and then said: "Mrs. Hou, please accept the order."

Tang Shuyi hurriedly pulled Xiao Yuzhu to kneel down, and Jiao Kangsheng began to recite the imperial edict. The general meaning is that Xiao Huai endured humiliation for the sake of the Qian Dynasty, and now he has made great achievements, so he should be rewarded, and then there will be a series of rewards.

The current emperor also has merits, for example, he wants to save face. Look at the rewards, they are really generous. Gold, silver, jewels, silks and satin, and a large amount of land are really not an ordinary generosity.

I have to say that Xiao Huai's ability to make money is really top-notch.

This should be regarded as joint property between husband and wife after marriage, right?

Tang Shuyi was thinking wildly and asked people to move things into the warehouse. Jiao Kangsheng returned to the palace, and when he saw the emperor, he told the story of how the decree was delivered to the Yongning Hou Mansion.

When the emperor heard that Xiao Yuming had set off to the northwest by himself, he snorted heavily, "Even Xingzhou is useless. Didn't he say that he didn't find Xiao Er leaving the Yongninghou Mansion? Now that Mrs. Yongninghou has spoken out, it means that Xiao Er was early

Just left."

Lian Xingzhou was the person he sent to keep an eye on Yongninghou Mansion.

Jiao Kangsheng lowered his head and pretended not to exist. After a while, the emperor said again: "Xiao Huai blames me for not believing in him. Has he ever believed in me? He took his son away before anything happened. I think Xiao Yuchen must have gone too."

northwest."

The emperor suddenly felt powerless, very powerless. He stayed up all night these days, thinking about how to check and balance Xiao Huai, but there was no good way. Every time at this time, he would hate himself for not having a good son. If only he could have one.

With a son like Xiao Huai, what should he worry about?

Sighing heavily, he didn't even have a son like Xiao Huai. Even the playboy Xiao Er was changing for the better, but none of his sons worked hard. www.

At this time, a young eunuch came in and whispered: "Your Majesty, Prince Su wishes to see you."

The emperor frowned. Prince Su was the late emperor's concubine. His relationship with the late emperor was quite harmonious back then, so the late emperor gave him the title of prince, but without a fief, and he has been living in Shangjing.

Prince Su is the oldest member of the royal family and the highest in terms of seniority, and his words have some weight.

"Please come in," the emperor said.

The little eunuch went out, and soon Prince Su came in. He was over eighty years old, his hair and beard were all white, but he was very energetic.

The emperor stood up and asked, "Uncle, how are you feeling today?"

Prince Su was helped by the young eunuch to sit down and said, "I'm fine."

The emperor hummed, "What is your uncle doing here today?"

The expression on Prince Su's face was a little hard to describe. He said: "Your Majesty, it is a big taboo for a family to have no heirs, let alone you, Your Majesty."

The emperor was drinking tea. After listening to Prince Su's words, he suddenly felt that the tea soup in his mouth was extremely bitter. He had several sons, but he was said to have no heirs.

Then Prince Su said again: "The emperor's age is not irreversible, why not recruit more women into the palace. Choose some who are knowledgeable, sensible and intelligent."

The emperor almost lost his temper after hearing this. Was he saying that the women in his harem were stupid, so the sons he gave birth to were also stupid? He wanted to be angry, but what they said was right, but all of his sons were very stupid.

.

After thinking for a while he said: "What do you think, uncle?"

"This time I am selecting a woman with a good reputation in the capital," Prince Su said: "I heard that there is a ranking of talented women in the capital, so I will choose from there."

The emperor thought with his old eyelids drooped, and felt that Prince Su's proposal was not a bad idea. A smart woman would give birth to a child who was more likely to be smart.

"I'll think about what your uncle said," the emperor said.

"Okay." Prince Su picked up the cup and took a sip of tea, and then said: "Your Majesty, it was the late emperor's last wish to capture the Rouli Kingdom. The Rouli Kingdom has always treated us like fat meat. It will be a long time before we can conquer Rouli."

.Xiao Huai needs to be appeased now, not angered. If you have any ideas, wait until you win Rouli Country."

"Uncle Emperor, I understand." The emperor said.

Does he want to kill Xiao Huai? He wants to, even in his dreams. But he can't do it now, and he can't do it.

King Su hummed, then stood up, "I came here today just to talk to the emperor. If it's okay, I'll leave."

He stepped out and the emperor stood up and said: "Jiao Kangsheng, send off to Prince Su."

Jiao Kangsheng hurriedly went over to help Prince Su to go out. The emperor sat there, frowning and thinking.

Tang Shuyi didn't know that Tang Guogong's "birth promotion" work had already begun. The next day, she took Xiao Yuzhu to Huguangxie. Yesterday, she made an appointment with Mrs. Nanling Bo and Mrs. General Xiang to play cards in the guild hall.

When they arrived, Mrs. Nan Lingbo and Mrs. General Xiang hadn't arrived yet, so she took Xiao Yuzhu to the "office" first. As soon as she sat down, Cuiyun came over to report, "Someone asked to see them and said they were from the northwest."
