Chapter three hundred and ninety fourth not in the royal study
Wu Feng bowed and said: "Back to the princess, the prince has been ordering people to pay attention to the movements in the general's palace. Knowing the news of the old general entering the palace, he guessed that the princess would definitely enter the palace, so he asked the humble minister to rush over immediately and give the princess a few words.
Fortunately, I caught up."
Xie Yao's eyes flashed with gentleness, "Go back and tell him that I do things in a measured way and will not cause trouble."
"Yes." Wufeng took the order and went back.
Xie Yao then ordered the coachman, "Let's go to the palace."
The carriage started slowly and headed towards the palace.
Xie Yao lifted the side curtain of the carriage and looked towards the direction of the palace for a moment, revealing perseverance and coldness.
If anyone dares to embarrass her grandfather, she will take her grandfather away safely even if she breaks a hole in the palace!
When Xie Yao entered the palace, she was led by the palace servants and went straight to the imperial study. Her mind was condensed, thinking about all the possibilities of Emperor Zhaochu's treatment of her grandfather, and at the same time thinking about how to deal with it.
When she arrived at the imperial study room, she glanced around and frowned slightly.
Here, she only saw a young father-in-law cleaning outside, but there was no sign of Eunuch Liu.
Could it be that Emperor Zhaochu was not in the imperial study?
She walked up to her little father-in-law in a few steps and asked, "Is father in there?"
"I have seen Princess Han. The emperor is not in the imperial study. He should be admiring flowers in the imperial garden at the moment." The young father-in-law replied respectfully.
Flower viewing?
Xie Yao was a little surprised. Could it be that Emperor Zhaochu had already dealt with his grandfather's affairs?
"Father, are you going to enjoy the flowers alone?"
"This servant doesn't know. I just learned that the emperor was not in the study room and came here to clean it."
Xie Yao was worried about her grandfather's condition and didn't have time to think too much. She turned around and ran towards the Royal Garden immediately.
When she arrived, she saw Emperor Zhaochu's canopy from a distance and walked directly over.
"Princess Han, please stay." When Eunuch Liu saw Xie Yao, he stopped behind him and bowed.
Xie Yao stood still and looked in the direction of Emperor Zhaochu.
She had already seen her grandfather not far from Emperor Zhaochu, and there were only two of them.
Moreover, grandfather is sitting.
She took a confirming look, feeling slightly relieved, but then became a little confused.
Emperor Zhaochu didn't seem to want to punish his grandfather. Otherwise, there would be no need to choose the place in the imperial garden and let his grandfather sit.
What does Emperor Zhaochu want to do?
A long time ago, the poison on the three generations of Jiangjun Mansion made her very sure that Emperor Zhaochu was thinking of dealing with General Mansion. Now that her father was defeated, it was an excellent opportunity to deal with General Mansion. If at this time
If he takes action, no one in the world can find anything wrong with him! Will he give up such a great opportunity?
"Princess Han, please wait a moment. The Emperor is chatting with General Xie and has asked no one to disturb him," Eunuch Liu explained.
Xie Yao nodded and continued to stare.
Under the canopy, Emperor Zhaochu sat upright and looked at Old General Xie with a gentle expression, "Xie Aiqing, now that the news from the front line has spread in the capital, I can no longer hide it for the General's Mansion. However, if they
If there is any disrespectful behavior in the General's Mansion, you can tell me."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Old General Xie bowed and said with deep eyes, "Xie Lian was defeated, not only many soldiers died, but also the country was damaged. It is reasonable for the people to despise the General's Mansion because of this."
"My dear, there is no need to blame yourself. Although General Xie was defeated, he also regained the territory for me and prevented my territory from being invaded by foreign enemies. It was a great achievement. Now that he died on the battlefield, although I regret it, he died well.
." Emperor Zhaochu's tone was low and his eyes were deep.
"He killed so many soldiers, how dare he take credit for it." General Xie remained calm and bowed slightly.
"Ai Qing's words are serious." Emperor Zhaochu said, changing the topic, "But if I give the general's mansion a reward at this time, I'm afraid it will arouse public resentment. Let's wait until this matter is over. I will declare to the outside world, thank you general.
He performed meritoriously in killing the enemy, and even though he was defeated in the end, he still tried his best to protect his family and country."
"The merits and demerits are equal, I will not punish him, nor will I punish the general's mansion. But..." Emperor Zhaochu suddenly paused when he said this, "Thank you for the funeral ceremony of the general. I am afraid that it cannot be carried out according to the general's etiquette.
Ready."
After he finished speaking, his eyes fell on the old general's face, seemingly casually.
General Xie left his seat and bowed slightly, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will handle this matter properly."
Emperor Zhaochu nodded, "Thank you for your hard work."
General Xie was just about to sit back in his chair when he suddenly saw Emperor Zhaochu turning his head and looking behind him.
"Princess Han is here too." Emperor Zhaochu said, but there was no hint of joy or anger in his voice.
General Xie turned his head instantly and looked over with concern. The next second, he noticed Emperor Zhaochu's gaze, and his eyes quickly turned indifferent.
"Since the Emperor still has something to do, I would like to retire."
"No need," Emperor Zhaochu said with an unclear look in his eyes, and ordered to the people around him: "Go and call Princess Han over."
"yes."
Xie Yao breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Emperor Zhaochu really had no intention of punishing her grandfather.
At this time, a young father-in-law walked over quickly and bowed: "Princess Han, your Majesty, please come over."
Xie Yao nodded, followed the young father-in-law to the Emperor Zhaochu, bowed and saluted, "My daughter-in-law has met my father and wishes him well."
"Princess Han, how is Prince Han's recovery from his injuries?" Emperor Zhaochu said in a calm voice.
"Thank you for your concern, Father. Prince Han's injury is recovering. However, because the injury is too serious, it may take several months to fully recover." Xie Yao lowered her head and responded according to Chu Han's previous words to shirk Princess Minghui.
Although Chu Han deliberately shied away at that time, if he really wanted Chu Han to recover in a few months, it would be easy.
"Does it take that long? How did I hear that he was so confident when he disobeyed the Queen's decree?" Emperor Zhaochu's expression became serious, and he already seemed to be questioning.
Xie Yao expected that Emperor Zhaochu would mention this matter, so she lowered her eyes and said, "Father, I don't know. King Han did this all because he was protecting his daughter-in-law."
"You are a kind and righteous person. Do you think you have soft hedgehog armor on your body, and even I dare not punish you?" Emperor Zhaochu's voice suddenly turned cold, and he stared at Xie Yao, and then his eyes swept over Old General Xie.
.
Xie Yao's heart tightened, "My daughter-in-law doesn't dare."
Old General Xie lowered his head and said deliberately: "This unfilial daughter will only cause trouble all day long. Even if the emperor punishes her, there is no need to take into account the honor of the old minister! She is from Prince Han's palace, and the general's palace has drawn a clear line between her and her."
Emperor Zhaochu's eyes paused for a moment on Old General Xie, then quickly withdrew his eyes and looked at Xie Yao, "The soft hedgehog armor was given by the late emperor to demonstrate the merits of the general's palace and the emperor's favor. If anyone uses it,
If it comes to resist the emperor's favor, I will definitely take it back and I will never forgive it lightly!"
