Chapter 447 Provoking Suspicion
Chen Tianqi saw Song Qian standing aside and didn't leave, wondering how could he have a good chat with Mo Yunzhu?
"Old Song, go and have a rest. You look much more haggard. Eunuch Liu died suddenly. Don't think too much about it."
Eunuch Song's face twitched for a moment and he said, "Your Majesty, I understand, but I feel sorry for him. Sigh, I'll go down and see if Miss Laomo is there."
Mo Yunzhu smiled and said, "Eunuch Song is too polite."
After Eunuch Song walked away, Mo Yunzhu looked at the worried Chen Tianqi and whispered, "Your Majesty, what's on your mind?"
Chen Tianqi immediately sighed softly.
"The death of Eunuch Liu has made Old Song become tyrannical. Many people have died in the palace. How can this continue?"
Mo Yunzhu nodded and said, "I heard that too, but Eunuch Song really had deep feelings for Eunuch Liu. He just couldn't believe that Eunuch Liu died suddenly of his own health problems, and he had to find out who killed Eunuch Liu.
It was found that anyone who had seen Eunuch Liu during those two days would lose his head if he was not careful.
The emperor talked to me about this before, and he felt that what Eunuch Song did was a bit excessive."
Mo Yunzhu spoke quietly while drinking tea.
Chen Tianqi glanced at her and said, "Did Yan'er tell you too?"
"We are just having a meal together and chatting for a while. The emperor is very busy and the palace is filled with smog. He is not in a very good mood."
Chen Tianqi nodded and said, "Alas, Yan'er still can't keep his cool."
"Your Majesty, the Emperor is already very good. Don't ask for too much. Isn't everything peaceful outside? The country is peaceful and the people are safe."
Mo Yunzhu's words made Chen Tianqi laugh.
"A good emperor should make sure his people live well, have enough food and warm clothes." Chen Tianqi sighed.
Mo Yunzhu nodded and said, "Yes, only when the people are well, the royal family will be well. Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it."
"Hey, girl, you know a lot."
Mo Yunzhu: "That's right. When the two countries went to war, so many people were displaced. No one wants to experience this again. Every time I hear my father talk about war, I think no matter who is the emperor, don't start a war easily."
Chen Tianqi's eyes lit up, and then he nodded and said, "Yes, although our Chen Kingdom won that year, the war was extremely costly, the treasury was empty, and many people lost their loved ones and were hungry and cold. Alas, I was also very heartbroken at the time."
Mo Yunzhu was filled with contempt in her heart. She didn't even know how much compensation she had taken from Qingyun, yet she still had the nerve to regret it!
Compared to the Chen Kingdom, the people of Qingyun are just like the cabbages in the fields, pitiful and helpless.
"The new emperor has ascended the throne and is very popular with the people. The emperor does not need to worry."
Chen Tianqi nodded, then sighed.
"Girl, what do you think of Eunuch Song?"
Mo Yunzhu found it funny in her heart, the old man seemed to be suspicious of Song Gou. It seemed that after Chen Yan came twice, Chen Tianqi was beginning to become suspicious.
"As for Eunuch Song, there is no doubt that he is good to the emperor and considers the emperor in everything. However, sometimes he is too strong and the servants are afraid of him.
No, I should say that everyone I met was afraid of him, except Princess Changxiang. Even the Seventh Prince was a little afraid of Eunuch Song."
Chen Tianqi narrowed his eyes.
"Old Song has been by my side for so long that seeing him is like seeing me." Chen Tianqi said lightly.
Mo Yunzhu nodded and said, "Yes, that's right. Even the emperor felt a little weak when he saw Eunuch Song."
Chen Tianqi's old face twitched.
"That shouldn't be the case. It seems that Yan'er's imperial aura has not yet been fully exerted. He is the emperor of Chen State. How can he see that a servant feels guilty?"
When Chen Tianqi used the word "slave" to describe Song Qian, Mo Yunzhu knew that he was dissatisfied with Song Gou.
And come to think of it, Song Gou definitely wouldn't tell him these things on a daily basis.
"Yes, Your Majesty needs to exercise more." Mo Yunzhu nodded.
Chen Tianqi asked: "Have you met Eunuch Lin?"
"Yes, Eunuch Lin Zhan. He was promoted by the Emperor himself. I was there at the time."
"Oh, why did Yan'er promote such an old man?" Chen Tianqi looked very interested.
Mo Yunzhu thought to herself, you are just an old fox, you just want to see if the emperor is under her control.
But Chen Tianqi was overthinking it. Even if Mo Yunzhu really wanted to, Chen Yan had long been dissatisfied with Eunuch Song placing Eunuch Liu in the position of Grand Chamberlain.
"I don't know about this. Anyway, I heard from the emperor that Eunuch Lin is an old man who understands his temperament better and is more suitable to stay with him. As for Xiao Cezi recommended by Eunuch Song, he probably doesn't like him."
Mo Yunzhu looked innocent.
Chen Tianqi nodded and said, "Yan'er may not like Eunuch Liu talking too much."
"Your Majesty, what you said is true. Who would like a talkative servant? Your Majesty also needs privacy. Can your every move be spread by a servant?
It's me. I don't like such servants either, and I feel bad just thinking about it. When you were the emperor, did you like someone to monitor you all day long and tell others every detail of your affairs?
Even if that person is the emperor's father?"
"Cough cough cough." Chen Tianqi coughed loudly. He really wanted to control his son's every move, but since his health started to deteriorate, he had become more open-minded, and Chen Yan was doing a good job.
I didn't want to know Chen Yan's every move.
Song Qian did learn about the emperor's affairs from Eunuch Liu before, and then told him, as a daily pastime for the two of them.
But later he didn't like what he heard, so he asked Song Qian not to stare at him for so long, saying that Yan'er had grown up.
But he didn't expect that Song Qian was still secretly monitoring the emperor's every move and no longer told him.
After Chen Tianqi knew this, he felt uncomfortable.
I told you to stop spying, but you didn't listen?
As an old eunuch, you care more about the Chen family's affairs than he, the emperor. Isn't this a bit abnormal?
"Your Majesty, don't think too much. Your children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. Just take good care of your health so that you can enjoy more blessings."
Mo Yunzhu was happy in her heart. The old man's expression was solemn, and it seemed that he was becoming more and more suspicious of Song Gou.
"Okay, okay, girl, you are the one who lives the most clearly. I am ashamed of myself as you are." Chen Tianqi looked at Mo Yunzhu with a very gentle gaze.
The two continued chatting for a while, and when Song Qian came back, he heard laughter in the house.
He rubbed his brows and walked in with a grin.
"What are the emperor and Miss Mo talking about? They look so happy. I can hear your laughter from far away."
"Old Song, let Liu An's matter be left in the past. You should be happier instead of looking so sad." Chen Tianqi said this when he saw him.
Song Qian's smile froze on his old face and he glanced at Mo Yunzhu.
Mo Yunzhu shrugged and said, "Eunuch Song, the emperor is right. People in the palace are in a panic now. You should not kill anyone again. Eunuch Liu really had a disease and died suddenly under emotional excitement."
