Chapter 437: If you don't say something shocking, you'll die.

Huh?

As if he heard something extremely absurd, Xiao Yanli couldn't help laughing out loud. In the eunuch's puzzled and panicked eyes, his tone could even be called joyful: "You are right, eunuch. I know. Looking back at the past and present, there is only one person who is so favored."

The eunuch was frightened by him. He nodded and ran away.

Only Xiao Yanli was left standing there, with veins throbbing faintly on his forehead and his jaw slightly tense.

Liu Jie was arrested, and the emperor didn't seem to suspect the prince, so there was no way to talk about deposing the prince.

Jiang Zhiyu's move forced him into a dead end again.

One thousand two hundred taels of gold! Not silver!

Even though he is a prince, this is not a small amount.

Not to mention that he was a foolish prince before, where did he get the money? ! He

recovered his sanity in just half a year, and he was able to take out 1,200 taels of gold in one breath? !

The people in Shengjing are not fools, so they will let him fool around like this!

He took a deep breath, went back to the study and gulped down a few gulps of cold tea. After suppressing the restless anger in his heart, he thought of the letter he saw in Jiang Zhaorong's study at an inappropriate time.

The two children are of similar age and were placed in the mountains. Not many people have seen their faces.

Is the one who survived really the princess of the previous dynasty?

Xiao Yanli couldn't help but think.

The hand on the teacup exerted force uncontrollably, and with a "bang", the teacup was crushed by him. The fragments inevitably scratched his palm, and blood slowly flowed out.

The pain brought Xiao Yanli back to his senses. He opened his hand, looked at the blood flowing out, and his face was gloomy.

Some things cannot withstand careful thinking, but this matter is related to his next plan, he must find out!

Xiao Yanli's eyes were filled with madness.

...

The closer the date of the imperial examination is, the more people come to the Xu Mansion to give gifts.

Maybe the word that Jiang Zhiyu criticized the Hanlin Academy gang spread out, and those who came to give gifts were all strangers. They never mentioned their masters and ran away after putting down the things. It's like

their feet are greased and they can't be caught.

Jiang Zhiyu did not show up, and Xu Yanli also ordered the gatekeepers not to bring anything in, so the gifts were piled up by the door.

Despite the cold treatment, people still came to give gifts.

In order to maintain peace and to dispel the emperor's suspicion, Jiang Zhiyu simply asked for permission to live in the palace.

In this way, they finally calmed down.

After the gift-giving stopped, there were more memorials requesting the emperor to establish a queen. Previously, it was delayed because of the emperor's serious illness, but now that the emperor has recovered, the matter of establishing a queen should be put on hold.

The emperor looked at the memorials that had almost piled up like a small mountain, and a "chuan" character wrinkled his brows.

Looking at He Yanting who came uninvited to help deal with the memorials, and thinking of the peaceful life he had when he was "seriously ill", the emperor couldn't help but speak: "I have a bold idea..."

Jiang Zhiyu looked at the battle report from the front line from behind He Yanting without turning his head.

This is the sentence he said the most in the past few days. At first, Jiang Zhiyu and He Yanting responded to him a few times, but later, knowing that the emperor was moaning without reason, the two were too lazy to pay attention.

Seeing that no one responded to him, the emperor couldn't help but let out a light "tsk".

Jiang Zhiyu paused, pointed at the battle report and asked: "Is the leader of the Wala called Dai Qin?"

"That's right," He Yanting said softly: "What's the matter? Is there something wrong with this person?"

Jiang Zhiyu shook his head slightly.

[It's okay, this guy is really good at fighting, and in terms of strength, he can be on par with the second brother. 】

【The main reason is that later, when the three forces were in power, this man secretly colluded with Jungar, causing Jungar to pretend to surrender and almost harming Tianqi's army. 】

He Yanting was slightly startled and secretly took note of it.

【However, he was the one who was sent as an envoy. With his ability, even if Dai Qin really contacted Jungar, it would not be a big deal. 】

The smile on He Yanting's mouth deepened a little.

The palace returned to silence again. The emperor still remembered that the two of them had just ignored his business, and couldn't help but sigh again.

This time the sound was louder than before.

"What's wrong with you, Your Majesty?"

Jiang Zhiyu smacked her lips. "Is there no one among the beauties that satisfies you?"

The emperor frowned. Although Jiang Zhiyu sometimes said things beyond her age, it did not mean that the emperor could talk to her about emotional issues openly.

It always felt very awkward.

The emperor's mouth twitched and he changed the subject: "You all know about Liu Jie pretending to be Ling Zizhong. There is one thing I can't figure out. How did he escape from the imperial prison?"

"Xing Maozhi has interrogated him for a day and a night, but Liu Jie has never given in."

"I will always feel uneasy if this matter is not clear."

Jiang Zhiyu stepped forward a few steps: "Liu Jie did not escape from the imperial prison at first. The prison door was broken and he disappeared. Everyone thought he was rescued by someone, but in fact, he was mixed in the crowd. When they hurried to report to the emperor, he took the opportunity to sneak away."

[Just like when he killed Lu Daizong. 】

【Murderers often look back at their crime scenes to make sure there are no mistakes. The difference between Liu Jie and them is that he will keep staring. 】

The emperor suddenly realized.

If explained in this way, it makes sense.

No wonder the layers of guards outside the prison did not detect his trace.

The emperor's brows gradually relaxed.

He just felt a little relieved, but when he looked at He Yanting, he suddenly felt unsatisfied.

Since the quarrel that day, this was the first time that He Yanting stepped into Yu's study and took the initiative to help him review memorials.

The emperor was not naive enough to think that he came to seek peace. If he was not here to seek peace, then it was obvious who he was here for.

Looking at Jiang Zhiyu standing below and answering his questions, and then looking at the unfilial son who was writing beside him with his mind on something else, the emperor was immediately furious.

All he had done was to pave the way for him. Not only did the brat not appreciate it, but he even proposed that Xiao Lingyu continue to be the crown prince and take over the throne in the future!

Is this something a human can say? !

The emperor hummed left and right, and said to He Yanting: "Hey, isn't this the God of War He Gongzi? I didn't realize you were still here. How come you are free today? Why are you here so soon?"

He said these words in a very weird and sinister way.

He Yanting: "..."

The emperor didn't make trouble for such a long time, and he thought the emperor had forgotten.

Thinking of the news that day that the emperor was so angry with him that he only ate three bowls of rice at night and didn't even eat his favorite rose cake, He Yanting's throat moved: "Your Majesty has no respect for the common people, so he can't see me."

The emperor: "!!!"

Jiang Zhiyu: "!!!"

This sentence is so shocking that even Jiang Zhiyu couldn't help but stare.
