The first thousand six hundred and ninety-four chapters have an explanation
"What the emperor said is absolutely true, but I am worried after all. I am afraid that this will affect our relationship with the Western Kingdom. If the emperor blames me for this and lets me go home to retire, I will have no complaints."
"You!" Xiao Zhe was so angry that his nose almost became crooked.
How could he not know that Mr. Li deliberately said these words to provoke him?
Although placing him back home for retirement would destroy one of Xiao Zichen's confidants, if the news were spread by someone with intentions, they would only curse him as a foolish king who does not know right from wrong.
Mr. Li's move was very calculated and it was a really good one.
He sneered.
If he doesn't drive him back, he will be upset. But if he drives him back, then the big hat of a foolish king will be pinned on his head again.
The Queen Mother also saw the current situation. Compared with Xiao Zhe's anger that could not be suppressed, she seemed extremely calm. After all, she was a woman who had been fighting in the palace for many years. If she didn't even have this kind of tolerance, she wouldn't
Fa Hao has secured this position.
"Your Majesty," she turned the Buddhist beads in her hand, closed her eyes, and said coldly: "Mr. Li is also loyal. For Dongchen, how can such a beloved general allow him to return to his hometown to retire like this? Isn't it me Dongchen?
losses."
"What the Queen Mother said is absolutely true." Xiao Che's expression barely softened by three points.
"It's better to let Mr. Li take care of himself in the palace for a few days. The feng shui of the palace is good, and I think it will be very good for Mr. Li's health."
Mr. Li bent down to thank the gift, but his voice was very calm: "I thanked the Queen Mother, Your Majesty, but it is a pity that I am not blessed. I have many children at home, and I need your supervision. With such a kind intention, I already know the Emperor and Queen Mother's thoughts."
The Queen Mother no longer insisted, sneered, and turned the beads in her hand again.
Xiao Lanxin was helping her beat her legs filially, but there was a trace of unwillingness hidden in her eyes.
Ye Fuxun, that bitch, can do it, and now even a princess from the Western Kingdom can do it, but everyone in the world can marry Xiao Zichen, but she can't!
When all the concubines heard the news, they all breathed a sigh of relief because they no longer had a potential opponent.
"In this case, I hope the emperor will set the wedding date as soon as possible and give an explanation to the Western Kingdom and an explanation to the princess." Mr. Li continued.
This time Xiao Zhe finally got interested and glanced at the beauty over there with interest. The beauty lowered her eyes and didn't know what she was thinking.
As long as she stays in Dongchen, he will get her one day.
"I'm looking for someone to make ends meet. The eighth day of the lunar month next month is a good day. Why don't we set the wedding date on that day and make an explanation to everyone."
Mr. Li bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Xiao Zichen and Ye Fuxun also came out and knelt on the ground respectfully to express their gratitude.
Then, the two stood up and returned to their respective positions.
The hall became cheerful again, with singers from the south of the Yangtze River singing loudly and dancers from the barbarians dancing seductively. However, Ye Fuxun had no intention of admiring it at all, because ever since she sat down, she always felt that there was someone invisible.
Staring at her.
I can't say I have good intentions, nor can I say I have bad intentions.
Based on her many years of martial arts practice, it was not difficult to identify where the gaze came from. However, she searched for a long time and could not find where the man was hiding.
Until his eyes glanced over and landed on a man wearing a green robe sitting in a dark corner.
With just one glance, she recognized the envoy who gave her the sachet.
Logically speaking, he is not a rare thing in this palace banquet, but from the moment he entered the table, this man stared at him with eyes as cold as a snake, which made people... feel uncomfortable all over.
Especially when she knelt down to thank her, she felt as if her gaze would turn into a knife and nail her to this palace.
Yu Siling, Yu Siling, what kind of treasure did you recruit?
She sighed. She didn't know why she always felt that something bad would happen. She felt that this bad thing must be related to the envoy.
The envoy also noticed that she was looking at him.
The two looked at each other for a while, and Lu Xia also noticed something unusual about her and followed her gaze.
"Princess," he said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Master Shen is here too."
When she mentioned Mr. Shen, Ye Fulun finally realized that he also had a name - Shen Yi.
Shen Yi seemed to want to say something to himself, and his eyes were eager.
Ye Fuxun lowered his head and thought for a while, and immediately made up his mind. If Shen Yi wanted to see him, then he would do it. If you have any questions, why don't you say it clearly and put an end to his thoughts!
After making up his mind, he carefully observed his surroundings. It happened to be the most lively moment of singing and dancing, and everyone's eyes were focused on one point, and he only needed to find a reason at this time to go out.
Shen Yi is smart and naturally knows what she means.
She seemed to be reaching out to hold the tea cup, but when she was about to bring it to her mouth, her hand shook and all the tea spilled on herself.
"Oops." She exclaimed.
The voice wasn't loud enough, but it was just enough for Xiao Zichen on the side to hear clearly.
"Forgive me, Lord Chen, I accidentally got my clothes wet. I'm afraid I have to go down and change my clothes first." She said with some annoyance.
Xiao Zichen turned back and glanced at her, his eyes searching, which scared her to the point of breaking into a cold sweat, for fear that he would see something. Fortunately, in the end, he just nodded and uttered two words: "Go. "
It's so simple.
She stood up, avoided everyone and walked out. Fortunately, everyone's eyes were focused on the singing and dancing, and no one noticed her.
The envoy naturally noticed her actions, his eyes darkened, and he didn't know what he said to the envoy. Then he stood up and walked out together.
All this fell into Xiao Zichen's eyes.
He had already noticed it when the envoy was staring here. Now Yu Siling pretended that her clothes were wet by the tea and went out, and the next second the envoy also went out.
It's too suspicious.
"Ah Shu," he held the cup to his lips and said in a covert manner: "Follow the princess of the Western Kingdom and see where she went."
The guard named A Shu responded and cautiously left the palace door.
Outside the hall, Ye Fuxun walked along the path in her memory to a remote corner. There were people following her from a short distance behind her. Seeing that the road was getting more and more remote, Lu Xia's voice couldn't help but become anxious.
"Princess, where are we going like this? Aren't we going to change clothes? What are we doing here?"
Ye Fuxun didn't say anything, and secretly patted her hand to comfort her. Lu Xia got her instructions, and although she was scared, she still gritted her teeth and endured her doubts.
After walking for another three or four meters, suddenly there were loud footsteps behind him. Ye Fuxun curled his lips and smiled, but his pace did not slow down.
Sure enough, it came.
Her hand was suddenly grabbed by someone, and then she was pulled hard. In the blink of an eye, she had already fallen into a warm embrace, and heard the person's anxious voice: "Ling'er!"
