Before Huang Chenling went in, she saw An Ka and a child playing in the yard, and pointed and asked, "Why is he here too?"
Yan Ruocheng said helplessly: "It's a long story, so sit down and tell it to you slowly."
Make him a cup of warm tea, and she will tell him a long story about what happened after setting off.
After hearing this, Huang Chenling touched her face and said dotingly: "I'm sorry for making you feel wronged. I haven't seen her for more than ten days, and my face is sunken."
Yan Ruozhen also stretched out her hand to touch his handsome face and said, "Are you not getting any better? You have become a lot thinner."
"Ahem! Can you please stop taking it for granted that I'm dead, okay? Show off your affection outside, and once you're done, don't come in and show it off again. Let's get back to business." Huan knocked the table with his cup and said impatiently.
"Okay, let's get down to business, lest we two blind you with our shining." Huang Chenling said proudly.
Huan immediately rolled his eyes at him and said, "You are so proud. Let me see how you face your queen when you go back."
"I have my own way and I want you to take care of it." Huang Chenling retorted.
"Now, how should we calm down the grievances of the people in the city? First, Huan and I have been here for a few days. The people around us are spreading the news that the Holy One is going to divide this city among neighboring countries. This has made the people very dissatisfied." Yan Ruo
Qi changed to the topic and said.
"It must be the rebellious tribes who spread such false news. Why doesn't Yan Rongyan refute the rumors?" Huang Chenling asked.
"If he had refuted the rumor, it wouldn't have spread so widely. Besides, he is here to suppress the rebels, not to maintain the lives of ordinary people." Huan drank some tea and said slowly.
"Then let's start from the people's side and stabilize their hearts." Huang Chenling crossed her arms and said confidently.
"What are you going to do?" Yan Ruocheng asked.
"Send a notice directly and tell them this is false news and ignore it." Huang Chenling told her simply.
"The notice has been put up a long time ago, but these people don't believe it. They think you will hide the matter of vacating the city, and then deal with them after the matter is completed," Yan Ruocheng said.
"Then I will come out in person and stand on the city square to talk to them. Anyway, the emperor also knows that I am here, so there is nothing to hide." Huang Chenling said.
Huan objected and said: "This is even worse. Isn't it just telling the rebels that you are here and they are plotting to assassinate you."
"Then tell me what to do?" Huang Chenling asked Huan's opinion.
"My idea is to stay put and wait and see what tricks they come up with. Find out how they want to break the hearts of the people here, your Holy Majesty Huan. So we have to go deep into the people and investigate." Huan said with a evil smile.
Yan Ruozhen asked in confusion: "How to do this? How can we go deep into the people to investigate?"
Huan pointed at Anka and the children playing outside and said, "Let's start with the tribal beggars."
"Scared?" Yan Ruocheng and Huang Chenling looked at each other and then looked at Huan.
"Don't you understand? You just pretend to be like those beggars in the city, and dress up like those rebel tribes, so you can investigate." Huan explained.
"Okay, then tomorrow you take someone disguised as a beggar and go to the city to conduct an in-depth investigation." Huang Chenling gave the order smoothly.
"I'm just giving you a suggestion. It doesn't look like asking me and my subordinates to pretend to be beggars. How can there be beggars as muscular as us? You can tell at a glance that you know how to use force. You and Ruocheng have become very skinny recently.
"Huan turned around and pointed at them.
"Hey!" Yan Ruocheng and Huang Chenling slapped the table at the same time.
"What are you feeding? If a beggar doesn't have enough to eat and grows fat, it doesn't make sense. You can pick a few thinner ones from the guards to follow." Huan continued.
"Then I want to join you." At this time, a voice came from outside the door.
Na Xiao finished his rest and went out for a walk with his cane on his crutches, when he heard their conversation.
"Your leg is still injured, why are you joining in the fun?" Yan Ruocheng stood up and went over, helped him over, and slowly sat down.
Huang Chenling saw that Na Xiao's leg was even more heavily bandaged than before, and said with a bit of sarcasm: "Of course you want to cause trouble, so that you can cause more injuries, and come to pester me.
Ruocheng will take care of you."
Yan Ruozhen stepped on Huang Chenling's feet in displeasure, "Oh! Why did you step on me!" Huang Chenling felt a little pain and said uncomfortably.
"Why does your mouth smell so bad!" She had clearly told him just now that Na Xiao's legs were injured by her, and she didn't mean to do so. Why did he want to taunt Na Xiao like this?
"I just care about him, why are you so nervous!" Huang Chenling also pinched her arm.
"Oh! You!" Yan Ruocheng puffed up and retracted his hand, refusing to dare to argue with him any further.
Na Xiao continued: "If I pretend to have a leg injury, it will look more like it. If you don't understand the tribe's language, it will be more convenient for you to inquire if I follow you to pretend."
Pat Yan Ruocheng's little hand.
"Well, this does require someone to translate it." Yan Ruocheng said with a smile.
"What's good? I don't agree. If you're injured, don't follow me. It's enough if Ruocheng has me by his side. I'll definitely find someone to help with the translation, and I don't need you." Huang Chenling took back Yan Ruocheng's hand.
Xiaoshou said in refusal.
Na Xiao took Yan Ruoli's other little hand and said, "Ruoli, let me go with you."
Yan Ruocheng was grabbed by their crossed hands, and her eyes turned into dead eyes. She raised her eyebrows and asked Huan Lai to help her deal with these two guys.
"Beggars do need some disabled ones. They look more similar and will not be suspected by others." He said pretending to be a peacemaker.
"So let go of my hand first, and let the three of us act together. I believe that if we investigate like this, we will get twice the result with half the effort." Yan Ruocheng nodded and agreed with Huan.
"Okay, since Ruozhen said so, I'll just take you with me." Huang Chenling said, holding her chin.
"It should be me and Ruo Li who take this unnecessary fool like you." Na Xiao also held his cheek and said.
"Slowly lift your chins, I want to see His Highness." Yan Ruocheng stood up and said.
"By the way, brother Huang is not feeling well. You really need to go over quickly and see how he is doing." Huang Chenling suddenly remembered Huang Fengmo's headache and discomfort.
"Why are you telling me now? Take me there quickly." Yan Ruocheng said worriedly.
"I guess the emperor is just like this because he is too tired, so don't worry so much." Huang Chenling added.
"If I can't trust you, let's go." After Yan Ruocheng said that, he pulled Huang Chenling away.
Yan Rongyan had already brought the doctor to see Huang Fengmo. The doctor said that he had insufficient blood energy and could not adapt to the climate and acclimatization, which would lead to syncope and headaches. He needed to take medicine for a few days and rest in bed.
The doctor had just left, and not long after, Yan Ruocheng and Huang Chenling came to him.
"Your Highness, how are you? Why are your hands so cold? Do you have insufficient blood?" Yan Ruocheng went over worriedly, knelt beside the bed, held his hand and felt for his pulse.
"I'm fine. The doctor also said that I have insufficient blood and need to rest. You don't have to worry." Huang Fengmo touched her head with a smile and said comfortingly.
"Your Highness, you have to stay in bed these days, and you still need to drink some medicinal soup to prepare yourself." Yan Ruozhen warned.
"With you here, it doesn't matter how long I stay in bed. Get up, stop kneeling." Huang Fengmo patted the bed beside him and asked her to sit on it.
Yan Ruocheng stood up, hesitating a little and not daring to sit down, because Huang Chenling was watching her every move the whole time.
"Cough!" He coughed clearly now, hinting that she was not allowed to sit down.
"Chen Ling, if you don't want to deal with the rebellion in the city, Ruo Li can take care of me here. You don't have to worry about me, just go and do your work." Huang Fengmo said directly and sent him away.
"Brother Imperial, I'm here to tell you that Ruocheng will go to the city with me to investigate the rebellion. She can't stay here to take care of you. There are other servants here anyway, so don't bother her.
That's it." Huang Chenling wouldn't be dismissed so easily, so she said it straight to the point.
"Ruocheng, right? Ahem..." Huang Fengmo asked Yan Ruocheng, pretending to be weak and coughing a few times.
"Well, that's not the case. I can take care of His Highness and help Chen Ling investigate at the same time. I can take care of both sides." Yan Ruocheng said impartially.
Huang Chenling walked up behind her, pinched her back with his hands, and asked, "Are you sure you can take care of both? You won't make a mistake!"
Yan Ruocheng felt his anger completely, and she squeezed so hard. However, she really couldn't treat Huang Fengmo badly.
"I, I can take care of both. If I can't, then punish me." She had no choice but to reach out and quietly pinch Huang Chenling's back, and the two of them squeezed each other.
Yan Rongyan suddenly wanted to see Huang Chenling for something. When he came in, he bowed and knelt down and said, "I will finally see you, Your Highness, the eldest prince."
"Come on, Rong Yan has told you how many times. It's just you and me. There is no need for the three emperors and brothers to be polite. What do you have to report to me?" Huang Chenling waved to him to get up.
Yan Rongyan nodded and said: "The general's subordinates captured a few rebels, and they were put in prison and interrogated. They refused to tell the truth. I wonder what you are going to do with them, Your Majesty?"
"Shall I ask them in person about this?" Huang Chenling said.
"Chen Ling, when you go to ask them, remember to wear a mask and disguise yourself before going, so that they don't recognize you." Huang Fengmo reminded.
"I understand, Ruocheng, just take care of the emperor brother. I'll be back as soon as I go." Huang Chenling nodded and said.
"Be careful." Yan Ruocheng said worriedly.
"Well, don't worry, I will be careful." Huang Chenling winked at him and went out.
