The black-bellied prince is all over the city

Chapter 5

In winter, the sky is clear after the snow, and it is so cold that people's bones are cold.

Murong Xiye strolled through the palace gate alone, turning a blind eye to the guards' salutes.

He is used to going out alone, and only brings Xu San with him when he needs to socialize.Although he was a bit bullying, he still wanted to take into account his face as a prince, and he spoke very well in front of different people.It can save him a lot of trouble.

When he reached the imperial study room, he took a deep breath in the cold air and stepped in slowly.No need to report.

Emperor Jinyun was immersed in reviewing the memorial. When he saw him coming, he put down his pen and asked, "Xi Ye thinks, how should we deal with Qin Shangshu's matter?"

It was really for this matter that he was specially sent for this trip.

A few days ago, Minister of the Household Department Tan Yuelai was reported to be collaborating with the enemy and cherishing the country, and his personal letter was taken as proof.Qin Yuelai came from a humble background, so it was not easy to climb to the position of Shangshu.Given his background, it is absolutely impossible for him to have any relationship with the royal family of Xiguo.But the evidence is all in front of you, so you can't help but believe it.

Based on Murong Xiye's understanding of him, Tan Yue was more afraid that he would have been executed the day he was "revealed", right?Emperor Jinyun is looking for him now, just wanting to warn him - I see all your henchmen, and I can get rid of them for any reason.

"Chendi thinks that it is too hasty to convict with just a letter. I usually get along with Qin Shangshu quite well, so I don't think he is that kind of person."

"Oh?" Emperor Jinyun seemed to have heard something interesting, "I thought, Xi Ye, that you never bothered to be friends with those pedantic people."

"However, since the emperor's brother has already confirmed his crime, it is fine to execute him. I have no objection." There is no objection to bring him back to life.He and Tan Yuelai had only met privately a few times, and they only talked about calligraphy, painting and chess skills.Murong Fenglin became nervous like this.It seems that he is getting more and more wary of himself.Sitting in that position in fear every day, it would be better for me as a prince to live in peace and ease.

"Xi Ye is not going to intercede again?"

"It doesn't make sense." After he finished speaking bluntly, he got up and started to leave.

Just holding the fox fur in his hand, Murong Fenglin glanced at him lightly, and said calmly: "I heard that Xiye, you go to Luoyan Pavilion every day, which girl do you like there?" The word bite is very heavy.

"Even the emperor knows about it. Some things spread really fast." Murong Xiye rolled his eyes coldly.

"But you'd better settle down earlier, it's not good for your reputation to hang around those places all the time."

"I don't need to worry about my brother's reputation. As for the matter of settlement - if my brother has any good candidates, I just need to tell my brother and make a decision."

Murong Fenglin was astonished.Because he had tried Murong Xiye no less than ten times, this was the first time he let go, and he just let him know that he was missing a member of his party.On the contrary, it made him faintly worried about his purpose——

This candidate's status is too low, he will let outsiders gossip, he is so harsh on his younger brother; however, his family background can't be too prominent, so as not to be drawn by Xi Ye to become his helper.Every step that Xi Ye took now made him feel anxious.

Last time, he went to "visit" Lian Xiruo in the cold palace, right?In fact, as long as he said a word, he could save her from there.Even Emperor Jinyun himself mentioned it, but he refused.

Emperor Jinyun knew that Murong Xiye was not worried that he would restrain him by releasing his mother and concubine.Even the maids who have just entered the palace can see that Murong Xiye only has hatred for his mother and concubine, and that kind of hatred makes him go to the cold palace every once in a while to mock the woman who has long been "unconscious".

Allow yourself a little solace.

But can he really feel at ease?

"These days my brother is living very peacefully, but I feel a little uneasy. In fact, my brother still likes to live under the eyes of the emperor. I don't know where the emperor has sent people?"

"Concubine Lan, please see me." A voice suddenly came from outside the door, at this time, no matter how much Murong Fenglin didn't want to see the troublesome concubines in the harem, it was better than facing his younger brother.

Murong Xiye naturally understood.He put on the fox fur, "Look, brother emperor, there are too many people around, and it will be distracting." He walked out of the imperial study room, and he didn't salute the woman waiting outside, and didn't even bother to take a look.

"That kid is getting bolder, isn't the emperor going to take care of it?" Before he had gone far, Lan Fei's complaints fell into his ears without exception.The warm sunlight fell on him, outlining the curve of his mouth.Thinking of Murong Fenglin's pale face, that concubine, next time I go to the Leng Palace, I can drop by and take a look.

Slowly returning to the palace, Xu San stood at the door, as if he had been waiting for a long time.He bypassed him directly and walked into the mansion.

Xu San followed him with small steps, "My lord, the general's residence has sent an invitation."

"Yang Yi's fiftieth birthday?"

"Exactly."

"Don't go."

"That's not good, my lord. The gap between you and General Yang is already big enough, we can't..."

"I don't want to go if I don't want to go, how can I allow you to talk too much!"

Xu San was startled.It is well known that the prince and General Yang are at odds.But no one knows exactly where the discord came from.It's just that they are always facing each other in court.One is a veteran who holds the military power in his hands and has fought in the battlefield for decades, and the other is a prince who seems to be greedy for pleasure, but actually hides selfishness.It's a good show every time.

He closed his mouth, followed Murong Xiye to the main hall, and served hot tea.Then he waited on the sidelines, showing no intention of leaving.

"What else?"

"My villain heard...I heard that General Yang's son, Yang Yunxiao, has invited Qingcheng, a new luthier in Luoyan Pavilion, to join in the fun."

After Xu San finished speaking, Murong Xiye really had a gritted expression. "He dared to accept Yang Yunxiao's appointment. He really doesn't want to live. It seems that the general's mansion must be visited."

Xu San smiled knowingly, "Yes. The villain will arrange it now."

That Yang Yunxiao was only a bit taller, so he couldn't compare to himself.Murong Xiye threw the teacup heavily on the table.Didn't he say that he won't be able to stay in the capital for a few days? I can drive him out of Lingyuan City tomorrow.Never let him step here again!

The last time he went, he used those words to deal with himself at the end, as if he knew that he would never give up, and deliberately angered him.For the past two days, he secretly watched Murong Fenglin's movements, and couldn't spare any time.Now things are really over.I can go and meet him for a while.

Qingcheng, I don't believe that you can really pour down my city.
