Chapter 166
There was no emotion on his face, so Cui Ming couldn't see what he was thinking.

Xie Zhuo is only in his late twenties now, a few years ago he was the elegant champion, but now he has developed a skill that no one can spy on.

However, after returning to Beijing for only half a year, he has already become the Commander of the Jinyi Guard who is well known to everyone in the Nanyue Kingdom.

No one would have thought that after returning from exile, this criminal minister, who was kept silent by everyone, would become the most favored minister in front of the Holy One, leading a group of royal guards to work on behalf of the Holy One.

"You don't have to worry about the matter of the First Prince, I can handle it for you. You can't choose to marry someone you don't love just because of a whim."

"You solve it for me? It sounds good, how can you solve it for me? Xie Zhuo, you don't think that you are really a generation of powerful ministers, and you can influence the thoughts of the Holy Majesty, right?"

"Your Majesty values ​​you so much, don't you know why?"

But it is because you are a very good knife, and there is no way out.

Up and down the capital, Xie Zhuo can only find a way out if he is loyal to the emperor.

If he participates in the battle for succession, the Holy Majesty will never trust him again.

People in the capital seem to treat him with courtesy, but in fact, no one has ever really taken him seriously. A person whose family and friends are all dead, even if he was once the number one scholar, so what, without the trust of the Holy Majesty , what else does he rely on?
"Of course I know, but I have a way."

Cui Ming stared at him with a cold face for a moment, "The imperial decree has been issued, you have no jokes, thank you Commander, please don't lie."

Xie Zhuo nodded affirmatively, "If you don't want to marry, I will naturally have a way for you not to marry."

Seeing Xie Zhuo's determined expression, Cui Ming suddenly sneered, and then said word by word: "Xie Zhuo, I don't need your hypocrisy, and there is one more thing, Xie Commander is wrong, I will not Marry someone I don't love?"

Xie Zhuo's emotions faded visibly with the naked eye, his complexion seemed to be pale for a moment, then he looked at Cui Ming with his lips tightly pressed and asked, "What did you say?"

"I said I would not marry someone I don't love." Cui Ming said almost firmly.

"But you clearly said..."

As he was talking, his voice suddenly stopped. Some things have been in the past for too long, and he doesn't know where to bring them up.

"You also said that it was at the beginning, not to mention three years ago, outside the Sending Jun Pavilion, every word and every word of Commander Xie was engraved in my heart. I dare not forget it at all."

"What I said at the beginning was not my heart, it was just..."

She looked at Xie Zhuo and suddenly smiled and interrupted what he wanted to say, "What's more, I don't want to follow the old path of my mother."

"Sorry……"

"You don't have to say sorry to me, after all, before my mother died, she asked me not to blame innocent people, and I will naturally follow her teachings, I just remind you that we will never be friends. "Cui Ming quickly curbed his anger and said calmly.

At the beginning, Xie's family was full of disciples, the head of all officials, and he was a noble family.

Xie Xiang is the most upright and upright, he is dedicated to assisting the current emperor, and it is not an exaggeration to call him a loyal minister and good minister.

But even such a person who is good for the world and the people is also involved in the case of corruption and bribery because of the self-interest of everyone.

And the emperor who lived above the high hall not only failed to return the innocence of the courtier who had been supporting him, but also allowed the dirty water from the world to pour over, and sentenced Xie's family to exile.

The wind and rain have come, ten years of exile in the frontier is not enough, the people behind it began to plan to wipe out Xie's family.

Someone bribed the maids of Xie's mansion and poisoned their meals. Her mother and Mrs. Xie have always been on good terms, but she never thought that she would also be tricked because of this reason.

The entire family of Xie's family died here except for Xie Zhuo who happened to go out and never came back.

Probably this matter went too far and caused intense dissatisfaction among the disciples of the Xie Mansion in the court. In order to show his benevolence and filial piety, the emperor not only ordered Dali Temple to find out the person behind this murderous hand, but also exiled the original ten-year changed to three years.

Facing the 15-year-old Xie Zhuo in front of all civil and military officials, he made an agreement that as long as he came back in three years with outstanding ability, he would make an exception and make him a criminal official.

It's just that the investigation of Dali Temple ended hastily, and a scapegoat was randomly found, and the official position that the emperor swore to give to Xie Zhuo became the commander of Jinyiwei.

In the Nanyue Kingdom, Jin Yiwei and court ministers are two completely different positions. The court ministers are not only ordered by the emperor, but also by the people. If there is no serious mistake, the emperor cannot easily abolish the official position.

The Jinyiwei directly belonged to the emperor, and all the power and status came from the emperor's favor. Whether he died or lived, whether he was prosperous and rich or fell into the quagmire, was all at the emperor's whim.

To put it nicely, Jin Yiwei is considered an official position, but to put it bluntly, Jin Yiwei is nothing but the lackeys of the Holy Majesty.

The whole court seems to be respectful to Xie Zhuo, the envoy of Jin Yi, but it is because he has been the most favored by the Holy One recently and needs to avoid his sharp edge, not from the real awe of his official position.

In the past two years, she couldn't let go of A Niang's departure, even though she respected Xie's family very much, and Xie's family had indeed treated her well in the past ten years.

But that was also her aunt, she was just such a mother, just such a mother who spoiled and pampered her since she was a child, she never thought that one day she would leave her suddenly, and she would never pretend to be cold again Scolded her for not knowing the rules and willful nonsense.

The temperature of all the homes these years has been given by my mother, and she can't accept this fact.

But later, she had to accept this fact.

I also have to admit that the fame, fortune, glory and wealth that her father has always pursued are not useless.

The enemy is still at large, how can she be willing to degenerate?

It's just that she is more daring than her father.

Her father only wanted to be a high-ranking official, but she wanted to be another master of the world, a queen under one person and above ten thousand people, and the mother of the world.

The queen of this dynasty can be regent and take power. Although she is not as good as the monarch, she can justifiably cultivate her own power.

This is also the reason why Ling Sheng did not establish a queen after he ascended the throne.

Xie Zhuo looked at her and was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice: "Whether it is necessary or not, the Xie family is sorry for you, and the Xie family owes you."

"There is nothing owed or owed."

It's just bad luck, it's just that her family is not enough to make those people afraid.

They knew that Madam Hou's Mansion was in Xie's mansion, so they still did not hesitate to strike, but they just felt that the fall of their Hou's Mansion would not cause any trouble, even if they kept her and their father, they would not be able to avenge their past.
