Crazy criticizes Emperor Ji for marrying the regent and becoming more powerful

Xiao Ruyan didn't get any favors and left Shengyang Courtyard in despair.

As soon as Xiao Ruyan left, Xia Houqi came back, keenly aware that something was wrong in the atmosphere.

"Who has been to Shengyang Courtyard just now?"

"Go back to your lord, the concubine came here just now and has already left." The maid answered truthfully.

"What is she here for?"

Upon hearing Xiao Ruyan's arrival, Xia Houqi frowned and said displeased.

"The concubine came to pay her respects to the Emperor Ji. She left after paying her respects."

The maid omitted the verbal sparring between the two people in the middle and only stated the reasons that could be put on the face.

Hearing this, Xia Houqi opened the door and walked in without saying anything more.

Nan Xi lay lazily on Xia Houqi's bed again, and the coat she was wearing just now was casually thrown on the soft couch.

Xia Houqi couldn't help but curl his lips when he saw his black coat. He walked forward and picked up his clothes. He could still smell Nan Xi's body fragrance on the clothes.

Nan Xi had been awakened by Xia Houqi's movements a long time ago, but she kept her eyes closed, not wanting to move and just want to stay away for a while.

Who knew he wouldn't give her this chance at all:
"Now that you've woken up, why are you still lying on the bed? Get up and get dressed. I will take you back to the palace. Your Majesty will be waiting for you in the palace."

Hearing this, Nan Xi opened her eyes:

"Did you just enter the palace?"

"Well, I came back after going to court in the morning, and I took a leave of absence for you by the way."

"Then the courtiers didn't say anything?" Nan Xi asked curiously.

"What can they say? You are the Emperor Ji. If you want to participate in government affairs, you can participate. If you don't want to participate, don't. No one can influence you."

These words came out of Xia Houqi's mouth, and they were particularly touching. Nan Xi couldn't help but curl her lips.

Then he asked someone to change his clothes and followed Xia Houqi back to the palace.

Nangong Rui paced back and forth in Chengqian Palace, worried about the safety of his precious daughter. It was not until he saw Nan Xi abandoned by Xia Hou that she was brought back to the palace intact, and Nangong Rui felt relieved.

"Xiao Xi'er, is your back injury serious? Do you need to ask the imperial doctor to check you again?" Nangong Rui's face was full of his father's worry.

Hearing this, Nan Xi subconsciously looked at Xia Houqi, who also showed an innocent expression.

Nangong Rui was furious when he saw the two of them flirting with each other:

"Do you think you can hide anything from me? I knew about your injury last night. If I hadn't been afraid of causing trouble to you, I would have personally gone to the Regent's Palace to take you back to the palace last night."

Hearing Nangong Rui's words, Nan Xi lowered her head with a rare guilty conscience.

"This time it was Erchen's negligence. Erchen did not expect that the people from the Ministry of Revenue would be bold enough to take action directly."

"I don't blame Di Ji for this. It's because I failed to protect Di Ji. She should have been protected closely. It's because I failed in my duty."

"Yes, it is because of you that my Xiao Xi'er was injured, so I punish you to serve Xiao Xi'er in Tianfeng Palace these days with tea and water. When Xiao Xi'er's injury heals, you can leave. "Nangong Rui pretended to be angry, and then blinked at Xia Houqi.

Xia Houqi understood immediately and was very grateful to his future father-in-law for helping him connect the dots. "Yes, I will do my best to serve the good emperor."

Nan Xi:.
My waist was injured, not my eyesight. Don’t think I didn’t see you two winking at me behind my back.

But Nan Xi didn't refuse. After Nangong Rui confirmed that she was only slightly injured, he returned her to Tianfeng Palace and asked her to have a good rest in the palace. Don't worry about Hubu's affairs, he has his own decision.

As a result, Nan Xi followed the order and slumped in Tianfeng Palace without showing up.

Xia Houqi also moved into Tianfeng Palace together. Nan Xi asked someone to arrange for him to stay in the side hall, but he had a room of his own and refused to sleep there. He pestered Nan Xi every night and shamelessly wanted to sleep with her in the same room. on the bed.

Since Nan Xi decided to stay away from Xia Houqi, she naturally would not let him sleep on the same bed as her. After the bargaining between the two parties, Xia Houqi could only commit himself to the narrow soft couch.

"Alas, when have I ever been so wronged? Even when I sleep in the study, I have a bed to lie flat on. Now I am reduced to sleeping on a soft couch."

Nan Xi pretended not to understand his complaint and responded directly:
"If the prince feels that the soft couch in my room is not soft enough, you can go back to the bedroom in the side hall to rest, and I will not stop you in the slightest."

"What Emperor Ji said is true. His Majesty ordered his ministers to serve Emperor Ji well. Naturally, they have to serve him personally. How can he be called a personal servant when sleeping in a side hall?"

Nan Xi didn't want to argue with Xia Houqi, so she rolled her eyes, put on her clothes and went to sleep.

Looking at Nan Xi rolling her eyes, Xia Houqi felt filled with joy and couldn't get enough of it.

Nan Xi was lying on the bed, and a line of sight focused on her, making her feel on pins and needles.

"If you don't want these eyes, I wouldn't mind digging them out for you so that their eyes won't fall where they shouldn't."

Nan Xi's speech was very cruel, but Xia Houqi was not afraid.

"Di Ji is so fierce, but I like her so much, let alone a pair of eyes. If Di Ji wants my life, I will give it to you."

This sentence successfully made Nan Xi goosebumps all over the floor. After she realized Xia Houqi's shamelessness again, she finally gave up her struggle and chose to ignore this burning gaze. No matter what Xia Houqi said, she did not respond.

Xia Houqi struggled for a while, then felt bored. He sighed, then slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The two of them slept so peacefully, but some of them had trouble sleeping and eating, and stayed awake all night.

"You mean, there's still one person who hasn't been found?"

"Back to Your Highness, a total of five people were sent out. Now four bodies have been found, and one person is still missing." Liu Cheng said tremblingly.

"Trash! If he falls into the hands of the regent, he will definitely betray you. Then you and Qin Beiyuan will be dead!"

"Your Highness, please calm down. I have asked people to expand the search area. I think they will be found."
"Oh, Shengjing is so big. You have been looking for him for so many days and still haven't found his whereabouts. I'm afraid he has been taken back and hidden long ago. Can you find him?"

"What do you think, Your Highness, what should we do next? If Di Ji really finds the account book, Wei Chen's black gauze hat is not guaranteed, and his life will be at stake." Liu Cheng was full of worry, and then glanced at Qin Beiyuan , Qin Beiyuan also frowned and remained silent at this time.

"Now I can only hope that the man did not fall into the hands of anyone, but died somewhere. Otherwise, this prince will not be able to survive." Nangong Fuyang looked at Liu Cheng and Qin Beiyuan coldly, looking at their His eyes were like looking at two dead people.

Hearing this, both Liu Cheng and Qin Beiyuan turned pale and didn't know what to do.

"Your Highness, it was you who suggested that we eradicate the root cause. Now you can't just leave us alone!" Qin Beiyuan suddenly raised his head, looked at Nangong Fuyang and said.
