Shu Blossoms

Chapter 194 Secret Alliance
Your Highness doesn't need to worry, according to the veteran, His Highness's current situation is far less dangerous than it seems!

A sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of Tuoba Yu's mouth.

Some things can only be said to the end, not to say more, Cui Yan got up to see the guests.

It is impossible not to be disappointed, but he also understands that if Cui Yan speaks for him or even sends a letter at this time, with his father's current thoughts, he may suspect that he is forming a party with foreign court officials, and he may not be the same at that time. Detained in the government.

Maybe it will even implicate the Cui family.

Tuoba Yu got up to say goodbye, and when he walked to the door, Cui Yan behind him suddenly said: "Your Highness's filial piety, the old minister will tell His Majesty. You are not in good health, you should take care of yourself and take care of yourself!"

Tuoba Yu was taken aback when he heard the words, then turned around and gave a deep salute.

With Cui Yan's words, it is equivalent to Cui Yan standing on his side.

"Master Cui, what you say today is from the bottom of your heart, and your promise will be fulfilled in the future."

After saying that, Tuoba Yu put on his cloak and left quietly.

Cui Yan watched his leaving back and sighed, and put back the cloak he had just taken off.

"My lord, are you going out again?"

The servant guarding the door looked at Cui Yan in surprise.

"Prepare the car and enter the palace!"

Cui Yan, who had just returned to the palace for less than an hour, hastily entered the palace again.

In Changsheng Palace, Emperor Wei had just woken up and was having breakfast when an inner eunuch came in to report: "Your Majesty, Master Cui Yan, Cui please see me."

Surprise flashed in Emperor Wei's eyes, he raised his eyebrows, and said with a soft smile, "This Cui Qing is such a hard worker. Didn't he just go back? Why did he come back again? What's the rush? Let him in."

The inner eunuch went out and brought Cui Yan in.

Cui Yan bowed his head and kowtowed, Emperor Wei beckoned him to stand up, and said with a narrow smile, "Cui Qing didn't have enough porridge, so she came to see me for dinner?"

Cui Yan also smiled when he heard the words, and said boldly: "The porridge given by your majesty is naturally delicious. If your majesty is willing to give me another bowl, the old minister is really useless for breakfast."

Hearing this, Emperor Wei glanced at the waiter next to him, "Come serve a bowl of porridge for Cui Qing, and a pancake."

Cui Yan hurriedly thanked him, took the bowl with both hands, and began to eat slowly.

Seeing that he was eating well, Emperor Wei did not interrupt him, and watched him finish the porridge, and then carefully ate the hummus.

"Okay, I've eaten breakfast, Cui Qing, tell me, what happened made you hurry back."

When Cui Yan returned the bowl to the inner prisoner, he heard Emperor Wei's majestic and low voice remember.

Cui Yan stood up straight with his head down, and respectfully replied: "Return to Your Majesty, the third prince came to the mansion early this morning to look for the old minister."

Wei Di frowned, and the expression on his face instantly became solemn, "The third child went to look for you? Shouldn't he be introspecting at home?"

"The old minister was also very surprised to see His Highness the Third Prince, and asked the Third Prince the same way."

Cui Yan didn't dare to hesitate, and hurriedly replied.

"What did he say?" Wei Di's expression returned to his usual calm and self-possession.

"Your Highness only said that His Majesty is in a state of illness and misses you very much." Cui Yan bent down and replied.

"Hmph, can he still miss me?" Emperor Wei sarcastically said, "He has something to look for you, if he just misses me, how could he find your house."

Cui Yan smiled with distress, and said in a calm and desolate tone, "Third Highness probably found the old minister's mansion after begging for many homes."

Hearing this, Emperor Wei paused with his hand holding buttermilk, turned his head slightly and said to the eunuch next to him: "A Su, go and find out if the third prince has stayed at the mansion these few days, hmph, how can you be honest? If you find Cui Qing's residence, go and find out which houses he has gone to!"

The chief inspector, A Su, took the order to leave, and Wei Di continued to make buttermilk in silence.

Cui Yan was silent for a moment, and then continued: "In a few days, it will be the anniversary of the death of Empress Dugu. His Highness used to go to pay homage to her every year. This year, His Highness wants the old minister to plead with His Majesty."

"Yeah, it's going to be March soon. The days go by so fast!"

Wei Di showed nostalgia on his face, and his cold heart gradually softened.

"The third child is still filial, and will go to worship his mother and concubine every year."

Emperor Wei's expression softened, and the cold and solemn atmosphere in the hall also eased, "It's not too late for you to come back in such a hurry when you are on duty."

Cui Yan smiled awkwardly when he heard the words, a little hesitant to speak.

"If you have something to say, why is Cui Qing always acting coy today? Could it be that the third child did something inappropriate!"

"That's not true. Your Highness seems to be calm and courteous these days. It's just that His Highness, an old official, is not in a good mood, and his body is a little thinner, and his breathing is a little unstable when he speaks. The old official is worried that His Highness may be in trouble."

The worry in Emperor Wei's eyes flashed, and he said lightly: "I see, Cui Qing should go back first, and rest at home for a day today."

Cui Yan bowed his thanks and left. Emperor Wei was silent for a long time until Asu came back.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the old slave asked the waiter that the third prince did sneak out of the mansion a few days ago, first went to the mansion of General Puda of the Forbidden Army Zhonglang, and then went to the chief servant, officer Neilang, and the chief nephew. The general's mansion, but they didn't stay long, they left in about a quarter of an hour!"

The Waiting Officer is the supervisory agency directly under the Wei Emperor. It was established in the tradition of Xianbei to supervise the officials.

Waiting officer Cao is the head of the internal servant and above the Yushitai, from the royal family down to the internal and external officials are all under its supervision.

"What is he going to do? He has run around all the senior officials. Could it be that he wants to form a party!"

Wei Di's voice was a little cold again.

Asu hesitated to speak, Emperor Wei said impatiently: "What does it look like to hesitate, just say what you have to say!"

A Su thought about it in his heart before he said: "I remember that His Highness the Third Highness is usually the most arrogant, disdain to associate with senior officials, now that His Highness is detained, even if he wants to do so, it may be too late. If you think about it for a quarter of an hour, you may not have even reached the mansions of those grown-ups, so the truth is self-evident!"

Emperor Wei's expression was still unpredictable. Asu, who had served him for many years, could feel that the chilling aura on Emperor Wei's body had gradually dissipated, and he was relieved, but he still didn't dare to stand up straight, instead his waist slumped even lower. up.

"A Su, Cui Qing said that the third child is not in good health, he seems to be sick, you take the medical officer to have a look and then report to me!"

A Su bowed his head to accept the order, and then asked: "Your Majesty, it's already morning time, the old slave will serve you first before going to the Third Prince's Mansion?"

Emperor Wei thought for a while, and went straight to the side hall to change without any objection.

A Su hurriedly chased after him.

In the Third Prince's Mansion, Tuoba Yu excitedly ran to Zheng Wei's room after returning home, pulled her up who had just fallen asleep and said excitedly: "Jing'er, Cui Yan agreed!"

Zheng Wei opened his eyes in a daze, yawned, and moaned impatiently: "Who is Cui Yan? What did you promise?"

"Cui Yan is a Han Chinese, and he always stays with his father. He has already agreed to stand by my side." Tuoba Yu's eyes flashed, and he said with great interest: "You don't know, although he is just a little boy now In the middle of the matter, but he often stays with the emperor, and can discuss matters in the palace. From now on, I will be able to know what happened in the court."
