Lin Suyi had no animosity towards Xing Bang, although she knew that her husband had a grudge against this eunuch. It was nothing more than the matter of Huang Baiwan in Qinglong Town and the incident at the Jiaofangsi.
She was not a person who did not know the big picture. Huang Baiwan's affairs were not worth mentioning at all, and she even secretly praised the affairs of the Jiaofangsi in her heart.
No matter how generous a woman is, she will be dissatisfied if her husband is always flirting with other men.
Lin Suyi was not a pampered and fragile woman. Seeing that Queen Xiao insisted that Xing Bang send her back, she did not insist.
Then, Lin Suyi rode on Empress Xiao's sedan chair, and Xing Bang followed all the way to the palace gate.
This time, no one stopped them at the palace gate. Not to mention that their leader Wei Yong was like a grandson in front of others, not to mention the weight of the gold medal.
For wealthy women like Lin Suyi, there are not so many restrictions on entering and leaving the palace. Who would dare to prevent Empress Xiao's sister-in-law from entering?
Generally, many of the high-ranking officials and noble ladies were imperial consorts or something like that, so it was not difficult for them to enter and leave the harem.
Outside the palace gate, the prime minister's carriage was waiting there.
"Eunuch Xing, thank you for your help. Please send it here!"
Lin Suyi said after getting off the sedan chair.
"I'm afraid that won't work. Her Majesty has ordered me to send my wife to the Prime Minister's residence safely."
The sun was setting, and Xing Bang had no plan to return to the palace. Empress Xiao's order was one of the reasons, but he had to take a ride.
"This..." Lin Suyi stared at the carriage with a slight hesitation, but it was indeed what Empress Xiao meant, "Okay then!"
Xing Bang understood what she meant. She was somewhat reluctant to ride in the same car with him.
When they got to the carriage, Lin Suyi looked a little embarrassed. Xing Bang spoke first, "Madam, please get in. The driver and I will just stay in the front."
"You are joking, sir. How can I let you sit with the driver? If you don't mind, please get in the carriage with me."
Lin Suyi had only heard about Xing Bang's incident, but she didn't expect him to be so easy-going. He was a popular figure around Empress Xiao, and he was also trying her husband's case. For both public and private reasons, she couldn't let him be the boss.
"Ma'am, please!"
Xing Bang didn't hesitate and made a gesture of invitation. Lin Suyi got into the car first, and then he got in too.
They soon arrived at the prime minister's residence.
"Thank you for your hard work, eunuch. Please come to the mansion and have a seat!"
"You are too polite, ma'am. I have other things to do, so I won't bother you anymore."
The two of them exchanged a few polite words, and then Xing Bang left.
Along the way, Lin Suyi was very reserved and didn't say much, and Xing Bang was too lazy to make small talk.
It's not for anything else, I just have no interest at all, there are thousands of beauties in the world.
You don't have to have a story to be included in "Feng Hua Bao Jian". You still have to have your own principles and judgment.
Xing Bang knew very well that the feud between him and the Xiao family would not be so simple. No matter what Lin Suyi was like, the child in her belly was Xiao Shizhong's after all. For Xing Bang, it was a hidden danger and a bad seed!
However, the child is innocent, and he doesn't want to cause himself such trouble. He just lets nature take its course and lets fate take its course.
Even for Queen Xiao, there will be a showdown sooner or later, but her situation is different. Although Xing Bang concealed something, he still thought about her after all. The two of them could have been completely loving and harmonious.
In short, Xing Bang is now trying to keep his distance from Lin Suyi, besides, he has no shortage of it.
However, there is something interesting about her, that is, her identity as the legitimate daughter of Shenjian Villa...
Xing Bang did not return to his own residence, but climbed over the wall to the Right Prime Minister's residence.
…
Hall of Supreme Harmony.
"Your Majesty, Xilianghou is less than a hundred miles away from the capital. The 30,000 infantry and 20,000 cavalry that were secretly dispatched have already set up camp within 200 miles of the capital..."
“Good, very good!”
After listening to Cao Zhengchun's report, Liu Xian's eyes suddenly became bright and shining.
"By the way, Otomo, I will not be attending court tomorrow. No, I will not be attending court early in the next few days. I am particularly happy about my birthday this year and do not want to be bothered by any unpleasant things."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Cao Zhengchun understood what he meant. What he hated most was the Xiao family's affairs.
"By the way, Your Majesty, the Ministry of Justice has forwarded the report on Xiao Shizhong's case."
Liu Xian took the memorial and threw it on the imperial desk without even reading it. He said with a confident expression, "Pass on my decree to dismiss Xiao Shizhong from his post and investigate him."
"General Wu Liuyi of the Jinwu Guard will be transferred to the Ministry of War immediately to replace Xiao Shizhong. The position of general will be replaced by the Sixth Prince."
"Your Majesty, in this way, the entire capital's troops will be in the hands of the Sixth Prince..."
Cao Zhengchun said with a hint of profound meaning.
"My dear, do you know why I tolerated Jing'er during the torture chamber incident last time? I know my own son well. Especially in the case of Xiao Shizhong, I saw everything Jing'er did. Besides, my health has improved a lot now, so I still have to consider some things in the long run."
"Also, Wu Liuyi is loyal to me, and the position of Minister of War belongs to him. Jing'er is my son after all, so I naturally trust him, not to mention..."
Liu Xian suddenly stopped talking and changed the subject: "This is also an explanation to the Queen. I hope she will behave herself and be a good Queen in the future!"
"Your Majesty is wise, this servant is relieved!"
Cao Zhengchun quickly understood Liu Xian's intention and thought to himself how could His Majesty not have a backup plan? Especially when it comes to military power, he has always been cautious and careful, and he is afraid that he would not even trust his own son.
Liu Xian pointed at Cao Zhengchun and curled his lips: "You old man, there are really few people who are smarter than you."
For Liu Xian, Cao Zhengchun is a person who is even more trustworthy than his relatives. The old man is basically a worm in his stomach. Although he can see through some problems, he will still express his concerns in time to remind him to prevent negligence.
Although Liu Xian did not say it explicitly, and did not mention Cui Sheng's matter, Xiao Shizhong was probably...
…
Right Prime Minister’s Mansion, backyard.
"Madam, it's time for dinner. I've been here for such a long time, but you haven't arranged any wine or food yet. Are you going to let me just drink water to fill my stomach?"
Xing Bang was a little thirsty when he first arrived, so he drank a cup of tea and then poured me another cup...
Qin Bingyan smiled charmingly, "Didn't you say you were thirsty? Tell the truth. What do you want to do by coming to your house again?"
Xing Bang frowned slightly, "It sounds like someone wants to take revenge!"
Qin Bingyan curled her lips and said, "You are still self-aware. That's right. Who told you to tease me like that this morning?"
It's teasing again, brother, you are flirting with me!
Xing Bang drank another cup of tea in one gulp and smiled slightly: "So what do you want? You don't really want to fill me up with water, do you?" While speaking, he did not forget to raise the empty cup.
"I'm not that bored. Answer the question first. Tell me, what are you doing here?"
Qin Bingyan said relentlessly.
Xing Bang smiled knowingly, thinking that he was still a little naive to use this trick on the old driver, and that this trick would definitely defeat the enemy.
"Okay, no more trouble, let's get drunk tonight!"
