Chapter 187 Mr. Hou was caught by a scheming beauty 77
At present, the position of Minister of Hubu is temporarily held by the Minister of Hubu, but Emperor Yan is not satisfied with him, and his ability and means are not good enough. After careful calculation, there is no suitable candidate in the court!
"Subordinates dare not discuss the government's affairs arbitrarily."
"Lin Zhengyuan..."
The Lin family has been severely suppressed recently, and it is not impossible to give them a sweetener at this time. If Lin Zhengyuan does anything bad by taking advantage of his position as Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, it will be easier to deal with the Lin family.
The number one scholar in the Hanlin Academy was not bad, but it was not as good as the role Xie Xun brought to Emperor Yan.
Emperor Yan had made up his mind and planned to find a way to reward him in public during the birthday banquet.
But he would never think of it anyway.
On the same day.
Lin Zhengyuan would actually give him such a big surprise!
"Marquis Xu Bei asks for an audience." The eunuch announced.
"Xie Xun? What is he doing here? Let him in."
Xie Xun walked in and nodded: "Your Majesty."
"There is no need to be polite." The emperor said, "I happen to have something to do with you. There is still a war on the border, and this New Year is not stable."
Bei Yan wants to negotiate for peace, but the lion of Nan Liang opens his mouth, and Bei Yan can't do it. This war can only continue, and we don't know when it will end.
"Fortunately, a new batch of military supplies was delivered smoothly, and there is also news about the previously stolen military supplies. Whether it is true or false, the bandits on Gaopeng Mountain should have been wiped out long ago. Why don't you lead the troops there?"
Emperor Yan was tempted to test this matter.
The military supplies were transferred under his nose, and the person behind the scenes must be found out. He only believed half of Gao Pengshan's story.
"I'm afraid it's not convenient." Xie Xun sat on the chair, with a fair and deep side face, refusing.
"What's the inconvenience? Don't tell me, your old wounds haven't healed yet!" the emperor said displeased.
Xie Xun took a sip of tea slowly: "I am in a hurry to get married, so I'd better leave this errand to others."
"!!!"
What kind of marriage?!
After hearing what Xie Xun said, everyone in Emperor Yan was stunned.
"Have you thought about it?"
"Well, please give me the emperor's decree."
Chu Yuju.
Meng Tang'an thought that because of Xie Xun's temperament, he wouldn't come over these days, but who knew he would come so early in the morning, which was a bit beyond her expectation.
So fresh.
"Come out with me after you freshen up."
Xie Xun, with her hair tied up in a jade crown and a lazy red dress, is leaning against the door. The winter sun shines in from outside, making her delicate features dim and her eyes always fall on Meng Tangan.
Meng Tangan's eyebrows were downcast, very cold, and he didn't react at all.
"Don't force me to hug you."
——You should hug me, the princess hugs Dora Feng!!
Meng Tangping ignored Xie Xun. When he was forcefully taken out, he was as calm as water. His white shirt was so thin that it fell over when he blew it. His face was very pale, cold and delicate.
It was Meng Tangan who did all the talking before, but now she doesn't want to.
The atmosphere between the two was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
For some reason, Meng Tangan had a bad premonition today.
What bad luck.
Until we entered the palace, with its vermilion walls and glazed tiles, we didn’t know how many people were trapped. The palace residents passing by stopped to salute.
Changning Palace.
In recent years, the Queen Mother has been eating fast and chanting Buddha's name, and few people have disturbed her, so she has been very quiet.
She frowned, stopped, and shook off Xie Xun's hand without him saying anything: "I'll wait for you outside."
"What are you thinking about?" Xie Xun held her hand again, a little harder, and looked at her intently, his eyes bottomless, maybe because of not sleeping all night, there were still some red bloodshot eyes, he was as careless as ever
, "When I see the Queen Mother later, be smart."
Meng Tangan was startled for a moment, his eyes dark and clear.
Looking at her appearance, he chuckled and changed his mind: "Forget it, I can't do anything to you as long as I'm here."
Meng Tangan really doesn’t understand this operation.
What does Xie Xun want to do?
"Queen Mother, Xu Beihou is here." Mammy said hurriedly.
"Didn't I say that? There's no need for Xie Xun to pass the call, just come in directly." The smile on the Queen Mother's face became more genuine.
"No." Mammy's tone was strange, "Xu Beihou... brought a woman."
"?!!"
Without giving the Queen Mother time to buffer, a clear and sweet voice sounded from far to near.
"The Queen Mother."
Pei Zhi looked around and saw that his originally gentle and elegant expression suddenly changed!
Xie Xun has a slender and graceful figure, and is elegant in red clothes. He is actually holding a woman. The man is following Xie Xun. His white clothes are clear and elegant. When he is quiet, he is like a beautiful flower shining on the water, and when he moves, he is like a weak willow supporting the wind.
p>
But what shocked Pei Zhi the most was that face——
Like.
It really looks like.
Meng Tang'an also followed Xie Xun's example and called out politely, in a soft voice, neither humble nor overbearing: "Queen Mother."
Wu Nong's soft words are like the bright moon and clear spring.
Those peach blossom eyes are crystal clear and magnanimous. There is no fear, no greed, and no self-contempt.
Even the nuns beside the Queen Mother were shocked.
The Queen Mother moved her lips and reluctantly came back to her senses. She had seen strong winds and waves after all, and looked at Xie Xun with her eyes.
Xie Xun did not answer the Queen Mother's question, but ordered the nanny on the side: "Serve tea."
"Yes."
When grandma brought the tea, Xie Xun picked up the cup of tea from the tray, put it into Meng Tang'an's hand, and looked down at her.
"Go and serve tea to the Queen Mother."
Meng Tang'an subconsciously held the tea cup. Although she didn't know what Xie Xun meant, she also knew that this was not a place where she could be arrogant.
Step by step, she walked up to Pei Zhi, and with a gentle and humble body, she bowed with great ceremony. She knelt straight, and her snow-white skirt moved gracefully with her movements, like a sea of clouds and flowers.
A pair of slender jade hands held the teacup and raised it to the top of the head, reflecting the exceptionally white fingertips as they spoke eloquently.
"My little daughter Meng Tang'an has met the Queen Mother."
The Queen Mother was sitting on the soft couch, feeling uneasy. Her kind face was hidden behind the mist of tea. She looked down at the figure kneeling in front of her, graceful and noble.
The woman's eyelashes are long and drooping, and her appearance is as beautiful as indigo growing among mountains and rivers.
Meng Tangan!
Of course Pei Zhi knows this name, and Xie Xun spent a lot of money to steal the bride and pamper his wife.
Pei Zhi had never seen her before, and she never expected that she looked so similar to Bu Hua!
If Bu Hua's daughter was still alive, she should be as young and beautiful as her, but in fact, they all became lonely ghosts and were buried in the deep palace of Nanliang.
Pei Zhi didn't understand what Xie Xun was going to do, but for Xie Xun's sake, she still gave Meng Tang some face. She took a sip of tea, suppressed the turbulent thoughts in her heart, and her attitude was neither cold nor indifferent.
"Get up."
"Thank you, Queen Mother."
Xie Xun watched from the sidelines, and after Pei Zhi drank the tea, he personally stepped forward and helped Meng Tang settle down.
Pei Zhi looked at Xie Xun's movements, frowned, and said nothing.
It is true that her feelings towards Meng Tangan are not good at all.
Jealous and insatiable, how can such a person be around Xie Xun? I guess he is also a petty person with only a little discernment.
This time he met someone unexpectedly, which was somewhat beyond Pei Zhi's expectation.
It's quite generous.
After Meng Tangan stood up straight, he broke free and took two steps back, not looking at Xie Xun.
Chapter completed!
