"It's just that I may have to temporarily wrong the King of Qin." Mu Huaichen didn't know whether Xiao Minyan could believe it.
Royal affairs are the emperor's family affairs. Even if he and Xiao Junze are brothers, they cannot overstep it.
"I feel sorry for the King of Qin to stay in Kyoto for the time being and not to go to the fiefdom for the time being."
Xiao Junze rubbed his heart. Doesn't this just suit Xiao Minyan's wishes? "I'm not worried about him staying in Kyoto."
He was not worried that Xiao Minyan would rebel, but that he was worried that Xiao Minyan would do something to make him sad.
"Keeping it under your nose is not necessarily a bad thing." Mu Huaichen sighed.
Xiao Junze values feelings, and the royal family has no brotherhood, but he has been pulling on this feeling far-fetched, just because he is afraid that Xiao Minyan will also hurt his heart.
"Recently, there are rumors in Kyoto that King Qin... is a seductress." Mu Huaichen coughed lightly.
This is a big taboo in Fengtian, especially among the royal family.
The royal family is spreading, which is the foundation of loyalty and filial piety, but someone spread such rumors, which is very detrimental to Xiao Minyan.
At least...the ministers who supported Xiao Minyan's ascension to the throne will be disappointed.
Xiao Junze was silent for a long time, wondering what Xiao Minyan wanted to do.
This news must have been spread by him himself.
"The King of Qin is a seductress. If this news is true...all the veterans who support him in the court will be extremely disappointed. They will use this as an excuse to keep the King of Qin in Kyoto and select one person from the Wang and Li families to be sent to the south of the Yangtze River."
Jiangnan is a fertile land, and no matter who it is given to, there will be substantial disputes between the two families.
"Two tigers are fighting. Your Majesty just sits on the mountain and watches the fight." Mu Huaichen gave Xiao Junze advice.
Xiao Junze was silent for a long time, hating that iron cannot be made into steel. "If he is really messing around and comes to ask me to reward him with a man as his concubine, will I let him go?"
Mu Huaichen couldn't help but smile. "Your Majesty, you and King Qin are not like brothers, but more like father and son."
"Hmph, if I had such a son, I would definitely throw him out." Xiao Junze was a little angry.
"We will discuss this matter tomorrow. It is getting late and you are not feeling well. Go back and rest." Xiao Junze stood up and felt sorry for Mu Huaichen's body.
Obviously he should have rested for a while, but he couldn't bear to rest and went to court early.
"I thank your Majesty." Mu Huaichen was always respectful. No matter how good the personal relationship between Xiao Junze and him was, he could clearly find his position.
At first, Xiao Junze would feel disappointed. It was not like this between them before, but then... it gradually changed.
But now, Xiao Junze is used to it, and Mu Huaichen's doing this is good for both himself and him.
…
General Xie Yulan's Mansion.
Xie Yulan went to the border to escort grain and grass, and Xie Yunnan was the only one left in the general's mansion.
Xiao Minyan came every day, and these rumors spread from the General's Mansion.
Everyone knows that Xie Yunnan is a man, but he is very beautiful. He can easily be misunderstood if he says more than a few words on weekdays, let alone Xiao Minyan, who appears frequently.
Xie Yunnan was so afraid of Xiao Minyan that he jumped up and down and ran away when he heard him coming.
There is something wrong with this prince.
"Why are you running?" Xiao Minyan reached out and grabbed Xie Yunnan's collar, almost lifting him up.
Xie Yunnan struggled for a while, but to no avail, so he could only compromise. "My lord, if you are sick, I will let you take a look."
"There is indeed a disease." Xiao Minyan raised his lips.
Xie Yunnan just wanted to cry for father and mother. This man looked very similar to His Majesty, especially his pair of deep eyes, which made people's legs tremble just looking at him.
"My lord, what on earth do you want to do? You are clearly not Duanxiu. Can you please stop playing with me? I'm not married yet."
Carrying on the family lineage.
How can he find a wife if people outside spread the word?
"Is marriage more important, or is your sister's life more important?" Xiao Minyan narrowed his eyes, lifted Xie Yunnan into the room, and threw him on the bed.
Xie Yunnan trembled with fright. What are you doing? "Your Majesty! I advise you not to act recklessly. I like women."
Xiao Minyan rolled his eyes at Xie Yunnan. "Women won't like you. You are prettier than them and they feel inferior."
"..." Xie Yunnan was about to cry.
"It's better to obey me, and I can ensure that you have food and clothing, prosperity and honor." Xiao Minyan narrowed his eyes and approached Xie Yunnan, pressing him under him.
Xie Yunnan's face, which was fairer than a woman's, instantly turned red, her eyes were moist, and she cried in fear...
Is this King of Qin really a broken sleeve?
Sure enough, men don't have any good things, so he should stay away from men in the future.
"Okay, I won't bully you anymore." Xiao Minyan laughed out loud, turned over and sat aside. "Your sister went to the border. There is a war in southern Xinjiang. She will definitely join the war. Do you want to ensure that your sister has sufficient supplies on the front line?
, no worries?”
Xie Yunnan looked at Xiao Minyan pitifully. He was addicted to playing tricks on himself. "Of course I want to! But what can I do? Even if I go to join the army, my family won't want me."
"Jiangnan is the land of grain and grass. Fengtian's treasury and military pay reserves are all supplied by Jiangnan. This is my fiefdom, but now someone wants to rob it, don't you want to help?" Xiao Minyan looked at Xie Yunnan like a fox.
.
"How can I help?" Xie Yunnan looked like a man with broken wrists.
"I need to find a way to stay in Kyoto and weigh the Wang and Li families. No matter who the emperor's brother asks to go to Jiangnan, the remaining family... will be our powerful chess piece." Taking advantage of the contradiction between the two families, let them bite each other.
Xie Yunnan opened his mouth. "His Majesty wants you to leave Kyoto, how can you stay?"
"Didn't my reputation for my broken sleeves spread out? You can perform a play with me. At the court, I will ask the emperor to give you to me. The most taboo thing in the royal family is the good of Long Yang. If I break it
My brother may be able to tolerate the thoughts of those old ministers..."
Xiao Minyan was lying on the bed, his voice a little weak.
Xie Yunnan glanced at Xiao Minyan and sighed, he couldn't help himself even in the royal family.
Although pitiful, but! "No! If your Majesty really agrees in a hot head, how can I get a wife?"
This sacrifice is too great, and that won't work.
"If I really agree, then I won't have a family for the rest of my life... Only in this way can the emperor brother feel at ease with me..."
Xiao Minyan swung his legs, but after all, he was still a little childish.
"You...you, forget it if you are crazy, I will not accompany you crazy, our Xie family expects me to continue the family lineage." Xie Yunnan shook his head like a rattle.
"If your sister dies on the battlefield, what's the point of starting a family and establishing a career? You can weigh it yourself." Xiao Minyan threatened lightly.
Xie Yunnan's face turned pale with fright. Even though he didn't understand anything about the importance of Jiangnan, he knew everything clearly.
"There's just... no other way?" Xie Yunnan was simply easy to deceive, which was why Xiao Minyan chose him.
"This is the best way." Xiao Minyan sat up and looked at Xie Yunnan. "Don't worry, when everything calms down, I will find a way to clarify it and it will not delay you from marrying a wife and carrying on the family line."
Xie Yunnan was still hesitating.
"Don't hesitate. The arrow is on the string. The situation at Fengtian Border Gate cannot allow us to delay." Xiao Minyan raised his hand and put it on Xie Yunnan's shoulder. "Brother, I don't trust many people. This is your honor."
"..." Xie Yunnan wanted to cry, he didn't want this kind of honor.
For the first time, Xie Yunnan hated herself for being so beautiful.
