The imperial palace, Weiyang Palace.
Empress Dowager Xiao looked at the person in front of her, and asked: "I heard from Aijia that you have been busy with a lot of things in the imperial study these days, and if the affairs in the palace are done, you will leave the palace and return home in a hurry. Thinking of coming to Ai’s house today?”
Xiao Luochen bowed to the person sitting in the upper seat, "Queen Dowager... sister, the emperor has made a lot of progress in the past few years, especially in the past year, he has become more and more calm. To be honest, I, the regent The meaning of the king's existence now is not great, and it's time to let the emperor face it alone. These days, I have explained the things in my hands as soon as possible. Before, I gradually let the emperor do it. The emperor also handled it very well. He is the emperor. May always be a child, sister, what do you think?"
How could the Empress Dowager Xiao not know the meaning of her younger brother's words, she responded quietly, and said: "You are right, regarding this point, the Ai family has the same thoughts as you, but you said that you, the regent, exist It doesn't make much sense, Aijia thinks, isn't it the right time?"
"Sister, now is the right time. If I, the regent, have been standing in the court hall, then the emperor will still have me in front to support him. This is not good. The emperor's current progress, even if he is alone in the court hall It is more than enough to face it by yourself, so there is no need to worry too much." Xiao Luochen said steadily, "There may be other worries before, but in the current situation, there is no need to worry at all. After the matter was over, I had this plan. Considering that I was too anxious to withdraw my hand too hastily, I waited and waited. Now that the matter in the southern border has achieved such a result, Nan Chu has surrendered. , the good situation is all paved, as long as the emperor is diligent in government affairs and strives to govern, the country will have no worries."
"Aijia also understands what you said, but are you really sure you want to do this? The regent..."
"Sister, the regent, I just promised the late emperor to assist the emperor and help my sister, so I temporarily regent in the court. Now, even if I have retired, I will occupy this position for a long time. It is not good for the emperor, and it is not good for my sister. Not good, choose to let go at the right time, and avoid people saying that my sister took advantage of the opportunity to wake up the morning, and say that our relatives are monopolizing power."
After hearing what her younger brother said, Empress Dowager Xiao didn't worry about it anymore, "You have already decided, then do it according to your wishes, find a suitable time, and settle this matter."
"It can be done tomorrow morning. Now that the decision is made, don't hesitate any longer." Xiao Luochen is not a person who is greedy for power. He can hand over the power in his hands, so there is no need to hesitate.
At the moment when these words came to an end, Empress Dowager Xiao was about to speak, when a voice came from behind, "Uncle has already made a plan, and he will no longer participate in government affairs?"
Xiao Luochen looked back at the people who walked in, and said in a low voice: "Although I will no longer directly intervene in the affairs of the court, if the emperor has any confusion, of course the uncle will not ignore it, but the emperor is the emperor. The person who dominates the world, not the person who blindly relies on the person standing behind you, you need to be on your own, understand?"
Qi Huan nodded, but he couldn't help but didn't know what to say, so he just looked at his mother instead.
Empress Dowager Xiao smiled and said: "Emperor, you have done a good job. Your uncle's decision is recognized by you. It is naturally excellent to work hard and manage the country well."
"Mother, I understand." Qi Huan echoed, pondered, and then asked again, "By the way, mother and uncle, about the brothers and sisters Rong Ze and Rongge in Southern Chu, I don't know what happened to them. settled?"
Xiao Luochen said softly, "This matter is not a hindrance, and I think there will be an answer soon, even if there is no definite result, but the southern border is guarded by Han Xun, and the soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty are stationed. There will be no more rash behaviors, and besides, they surrender, and they will definitely not renege on their promises."
Empress Dowager Xiao heard something else from Xiao Luochen's words, "There will be an answer? Luo Chen, do you know something? At that time, Rong Ze wanted his younger sister to marry into your Prince Regent's Palace, although later I don’t have such an idea anymore, but they have never made a decision in the imperial capital, the matter of Nanchu has been settled, and it’s okay for them to stay in the imperial capital forever, but what is the situation about that matter?”
Xiao Luochen didn't cover up these things either, and directly explained everything about the situation in the Marquis's Mansion to the person in front of him.
After hearing these words, Empress Dowager Xiao couldn't help being a little surprised, "You mean, that Rong Ze has always admired Ye Hanxun?"
"Sister thinks Han Xun is okay?"
"Not really, he is indeed a good candidate. If he let out rumors, I am afraid that the threshold of the Marquis Mansion will be smashed, but he has not put his mind on it, and now that it comes out... So, You said there will be uncertain results?"
"Han Xun agreed to think about it, and the result is not yet known. However, if Southern Chu returns to Northern Zhou, if they succeed, will my sister feel that something is wrong? After all..."
"No, if Ye Hanxun's Ai's family can't believe it, then how can they feel at ease after holding military power in their hands for so many years? Back then, the Ai's family wouldn't invite Ye Hou and his wife back to Beijing to sit in the city. The late emperor could rely on people he trusted. How can the Ai family suspect that, as you said, Nan Chu has surrendered, how can there be rebellion again!" Empress Dowager Xiao said with certainty.
Instead, Xiao Luochen looked at the person in front of him, and said softly: "Sister, if there is nothing else, then I will leave the palace first."
Empress Dowager Xiao responded, "Okay, that's right, if you want to have more free time in the future, then it is good to often bring a small book into the palace to play and talk with Ai's family."
"Yes." Xiao Luochen agreed, and then never left the palace.
Seeing the back of Xiao Luochen walking out, Qi Huan looked at the people beside him, "Queen, is uncle really going to let go of the regent's possessions? Then in the court..."
"Why, is there some fear now?" Queen Mother Xiao asked.
Qi Huan shook his head, "Queen, I'm either afraid, or I just wonder if I can really take care of everything."
Empress Dowager Xiao raised her hand, and lightly patted Qi Huan on the shoulder, "Of course you can, you are the emperor, as long as you face all the affairs of the court seriously and deal with everything carefully, naturally there will be no other troubles." Deviation, besides, it’s not that your uncle will not be able to help you if he quits the imperial court, but that if you want to be a good emperor, he, the regent, will have to hand over everything sooner or later, understand?”
"Yes, I know." Qi Huan agreed, and then he didn't say any more, and asked, "Queen Mother, do you think it is really possible to have a relationship between Rong Ze and the general? "
"The emperor doesn't need to worry about this matter, the result will come naturally." Empress Dowager Xiao said softly.
After saying this, Qi Huan stopped talking.
……
Here, in Beijing, the post house.
The guards at the door saw the person who appeared, and hurried in to report. Immediately afterwards, the postman came out to greet him, "I don't know that the general is coming, and the officials are far away to welcome you."
"It's okay, where does King Chu live, take me there."
"Yes, please, General." Immediately, Yicheng respectfully led the General to the courtyard specially prepared for the brothers and sisters of King Chu.
Ye Hanxun walked into the courtyard, looked at Yi Cheng, "You don't need to be here anymore, just step back first."
Of course, Yicheng stepped back in a hurry.
Afterwards, Ye Hanxun walked over, and at this moment, the two brothers and sisters Rong Ze and Rong Ge who were sitting in the room saw the person appearing at the door, Rong Ge was the first to speak, "General Ye, why do you have time to come today? "
Rong Ze's eyes fell on Ye Hanxun, but he quickly looked away, and when he stood up, he said, "Please sit down, General." Then he poured another cup of tea and handed it to Ye Hanxun, "Please Drink tea."
Rong Ge saw that Ye Hanxun did not speak, and it had been a few days since the last time they went to Yehou's Mansion, and that day Ye Hanxun had a private chat with her brother, this person came suddenly, he must not be looking for her Yes, then... "Since that's the case, brother, then you are here to talk to the general, and I will go back to my room first."
Before Rong Ze called Rong Ge to stop, people had already ran out of his room, and disappeared immediately, so he could only turn to look at Ye Hanxun, "I don't know, the general is coming here now, is it Is there a problem?"
Ye Hanxun picked up the cup of tea, took a sip, and said, "Tell me, I'm here to find you. What will be involved between us?"
Rong Ze was stunned for a moment, and his eyes became more and more afraid to look at Ye Hanxun, so now he came to tell him the result of the incident that he said in Yehou's mansion that day, now that he has thought clearly, suddenly, His whole body became tense, as if every strand of hair was extremely tense, completely uncontrollable, and there was even a faint worry that these days, he had been He was waiting for Ye Hanxun to give him an answer, but he never got it. At this moment, his heart seemed to jump in his throat.
Ye Hanxun noticed the expression of the person in front of him, and with his own martial arts, he could easily and keenly capture the heartbeat of the person in front of him, "You seem to be very nervous."
Rong Ze raised his eyes suddenly, and met Ye Hanxun's gaze, as if he had been seen through, "I... no, no, the general is here, I must have thought about that matter, if..."
"You said it, and I agreed."
"Ah—" Rong Ze didn't expect it at all.
"You are the first person to stand in front of me. It just so happens that you are very likable. If that's the case, it's good to agree."
"General?" Rong Ze asked while hesitating.
Ye Han said in a steady voice, "Do you think I'll go back on my word?"
"Of course not, I'm just a little suspicious of my ears." Rong Ze's voice seemed to become weaker as he spoke.
"If you don't mind, come with me into the palace."
"Okay." Rong Ze blurted out the answer.
