"Where is the dragon vein map in the hands of the Qianzhou royal family?" Tianwu asked, "The king has been killed, so asking should give us some clues, right?"
Feng Yuheng held his forehead with his hand, "I forgot it at that time."
"Forgot?" Tianwu was stunned, "Stop it."
Xuan Tianming said shamelessly: "I did forget it at that time, but I remembered it later."
"Yes." Tianwu nodded, "Then what?"
"Nothing happened afterwards." Xuan Tianming said, "I said that we only remembered it later, which means that when we remembered it, the King of Qianzhou was already dead. Not only was he dead, but the entire Qianzhou royal family was also extinct. Oh, yes, there was still the Lotus King left, who relied on us to follow him back to the capital, but he and the King of Qianzhou were enemies, and he didn't know anything about the dragon vein map."
Tianwu gritted his teeth in anger, "I used to think you two were quite smart, so I always thought of you when something good happened. Even this throne was reserved for you two. In the end, you did such a stupid thing for me. I am so disappointed."
Xuan Tianming spread his hands, "Why don't you consider your other sons?"
"I don't give a shit!" Tianwu was furious, "Neither of you two is worry-free! Neither of you is worry-free!"
Zhang Yuan desperately winked at Feng Yuheng, and Feng Yuheng finally found an opportunity to interrupt and said, "Don't worry, father. Qianzhou is already the territory of Dashun, and this earthquake and avalanche have shaken the entire country to the point where there is no good place. We still have a long way to go to deal with the dragon vein. Who knows, if there is another earthquake one day, it will be shaken out by itself."
Tianwu was done talking. He suddenly felt that it was totally unreasonable to talk to the couple. If they wanted to piss people off, even gods would be pissed off to death. So he took two deep breaths and tried to adjust himself mentally. He finally suppressed his anger and asked Feng Yuheng, "It's all in ruins. What are you going to do?"
Feng Yuheng said her plan: "The icy land is not suitable for human survival, but it is still very good for the growth of special crops and special animal breeding, such as the wild wolf horse like Qianzhou, and the ice silkworm that can spit out Guanghan silk, which are all worth our research. My daughter-in-law plans to make Qianzhou into Dashun's experimental base. Some things that cannot be completed in Dashun can be completed there, and some new ideas and experiments can also be carried out there, so that Qianzhou can come alive again and serve Dashun completely."
Xuan Tianming also told Tianwu again about the arrangements for the people of Qianzhou and the deployment of troops within the territory of Qianzhou. Gradually, Tianwu's attention was finally diverted to the main business, and the three of them began to discuss seriously.
The conversation went straight from day to night. At the same time, Xiangrong of Prince Ping's Mansion also taught the Fourth Prince a lesson from day to night. She pointed at Xuan Tianyi and trembled with anger: "Who promised me that he could embroider it well? Who said that if he couldn't even embroider a pair of mandarin ducks, he might as well chop off his hands? If you have the guts, chop them off! You embroidered ducks on a good piece of Shu brocade. Did you do it on purpose? Fourth Prince! I know that it is difficult for the emperor to ask you to learn embroidery from me, but this is the emperor's order after all, and it has nothing to do with me! Do you think I am happy to teach you? If you have any objections, you can tell the emperor. As for hurting me behind my back? I am just a concubine's daughter from a commoner's family. She is the current lady of the Left Prime Minister's Mansion. Can I afford to offend her? Tell me, you have caused me such a big disaster. What should I do about this matter?"
He said a lot in one breath, then sat down on the chair, gasping for breath.
Xuan Tianyi was not moved. He slowly poured a bowl of tea and handed it to Xiangrong: "Master, have some tea."

"Who is your master? I am not worthy of being your master!" She rarely gets angry with others, but in the past year or so she has been in contact with the Fourth Prince, she has been angry more than once. Basically, she gets angry every two or three days, gets angry every three days, gets angry every five days, and once a month she goes to his house to scold him in person. Sometimes she feels that if she doesn't go to his house to scold him, she will suffocate to death.
Xuan Tianyi found Xiangrong's angry look interesting, but he did it on purpose. Now that Xiangrong had been wronged, he couldn't let her get angry again.
He told Xiangrong: "I did this to vent your anger. The newly appointed left prime minister is too indulgent to his daughter. Although Feng Jinyuan has lost his official position, at least your family still has an unmarried Li Wang's principal wife, right? She..."
"Don't mention the wife of Prince Li, I'm annoyed!" It's strange to say, such words have been in Xiangrong's heart, but according to her personality, she can never say it out loud. Who would have thought that she could speak freely in front of the Fourth Prince without any reservations, Xiangrong was puzzled, this is really strange.
"Okay, let's not talk about it." Xuan Tianyi said, "But even if she doesn't consider this face, she should consider your second sister's face, right? She is not just the principal wife of Prince Yu, she is a princess personally appointed by the emperor, and she has made great contributions to Dashun. How can such a person not be able to control the daughter of a new prime minister? Humph, the daughter of a mere prime minister actually dares to order you to be an embroiderer. If I am still on the throne, I will definitely make her family fall into poverty and her life miserable."
Xiang Rong rolled her eyes, "What's the point of saying those big words? There's no chance of your throne being restored. Don't dream." She was used to talking to Xuan Tianyi like this, but she didn't notice the fierce look in Xuan Tianming's eyes when he said that. "Forget it." She waved her hands, "It's useless to scold you. It seems that I will not only have to pay the cost of a Shu brocade wedding dress, but also kneel down and apologize in person. You really killed me."
As she spoke, she stood up and walked out, but she heard Xuan Tianyi say in a loud voice behind her: "It's okay, don't take it too seriously. The left prime minister of the Dashun Dynasty never had a good ending. If you don't believe me, just wait and see!"
"Crazy." Xiangrong became even angrier and walked faster and faster.
Xuan Tianyi felt a little distressed when he saw the little girl walking out. He couldn't catch this emotion at all. He just felt that the little girl was very weak, but she always tried to be strong in front of him. As Xiang Rong said once: A master should act like a master. He thought this girl was very interesting. She listened to the emperor's words so seriously and taught him to embroider. She really taught a prince of a country to pick up a needle and embroider from morning to night.
Xuan Tianyi didn't understand why he had to punish the second young lady of the new left prime minister's mansion. However, when he heard that the other party actually used Feng Xiangrong as an embroiderer, he felt an indescribable anger burning in his heart. The two ducks were just a small punishment. If the second young lady really made Xiangrong kneel down and apologize, he would have to use his long-unused connections to punish her.
At this time, an attendant walked into the room quickly, stood in front of him and said, "Your Highness, the Ninth Prince and Princess Ji'an have returned to the capital."
"Oh?" Xuan Tianyi's eyes lit up. "She's back so soon? That's good. Now that she's back, I don't have to intervene in Rong's matter. It can also be considered that the new left prime minister's family is unlucky. Why did he have to mess with Princess Ji'an's most caring sister? He really is... courting death!"
"If you ask me, Qian Zhou is looking for death!" In the back hall of Qiankun Palace, Tianwu invited Xuan Tianming and Feng Yuheng to have dinner together. After drinking two taels of wine, he criticized the various evil deeds of the Qian Zhou royal family. Then he sighed: "Poor Qian Zhou people! Poor King Lian, a good young man was turned into a young woman. Isn't this a sin?" He said to Feng Yuheng: "You can give him a good lesson. For such a seedling who voluntarily gives up the city and sends troops, we Dashun must cultivate it well."
The meal lasted for more than an hour, and the two were finally driven out of the Qiankun Palace by Emperor Tianwu. The reason why he was in a hurry to drive them away was that he had his own ideas: "Go see your mother! She didn't see me for a long time, she didn't see me in the spring, she didn't see me in the summer, and now it's autumn and she still hasn't seen me. I really don't know what she's thinking."
Xuan Tianming doesn't like to criticize him. He hasn't seen you for more than ten years. It's not just this time. Why are you so entangled?
But he still pulled Feng Yuheng towards Yuehan Palace. Concubine Yun, he really missed her!
As a result, before they had even walked halfway, Zhang Yuan came jogging behind them, panting heavily from exhaustion.
Feng Yuheng took the initiative to help him straighten his back, and then asked him: "Eunuch Zhang, what's the urgent matter? Is there something wrong with my father?"
"Your Majesty, it's alright." Zhang Yuan waved his hand, and then said to the two, "It's just that I have something to do. I traveled eight hundred miles to ask Your Highness to come back quickly. This was a bit presumptuous. After all, I am just a eunuch. If I sent such an urgent letter to a general on the battlefield, I would lose my head if others knew about it."
Xuan Tianming said helplessly: "Let's get to the point. No one dares to take your head yet."
Zhang Yuan sighed and said with a look of resentment: "No one dared to accept it before, but this time it may not be the case. Your Highness! Something big happened in the palace!"
"Hmm?" Xuan Tianming was stunned. "What's the big deal? I haven't heard father mention it before."
"How could he know?" Zhang Yuan stamped his feet. "Your Highness, I knew about this several months ago. It was the secret guards around the emperor who told me. We all kept it to ourselves and no one dared to tell anyone, especially the emperor. We were on high alert for fear that something might happen if he knew. Finally, Your Highness came back. I finally felt relieved when I saw him."
Xuan Tianming's heart skipped a beat, and even Feng Yuheng's heart trembled. The two looked at each other, and both saw the same message in each other's eyes.
Feng Yuheng was the first to ask, "Did something happen at Yuehan Palace?"
Zhang Yuan nodded, sighed, and looked around again. After making sure that no one was around, he leaned forward and whispered, "Empress Yun... has left the palace!"
The two were shocked: "What did you say?"
