Chapter 426
"Have you found anything about that maid of Marquis Han?!" Emperor Sheng paused.

"I can't find out where she is going, maybe Hanhou did something wrong," Yin Xiang said in a low voice, "It's just that her reputation in the capital is very bad recently, and it was caused by the civil strife in Hanhou's mansion, but she She is very favored. I heard that even Mrs. Han likes her very much, but it was found out that she has an older brother, but I don’t know where his hometown is. People like Shanshan may have a lot of background, and their financial resources are very strong. Recently, they have purchased food outside, and the business they are doing is also very large. He is the one who supplies the hot pot restaurant, but I have also checked the hot pot restaurant. The shopkeepers, but they are very mysterious and refuse to say anything..."

How could Emperor Sheng tolerate such a time bomb by his side without knowing its strength? !Immediately his complexion was not very good.

"Buy food, what do they want to do?!" Emperor Sheng said coldly.

"Maybe they want to hoard goods..." Yin Xiang frowned and said, "The war is imminent, and there is nothing wrong with profiteers like them doing this kind of thing, but this matter is also due to the credit of the third son of the Li family. foot……"

"Li Hanlin's third son?!" Emperor Sheng sneered.

"Yes, this son's reputation is also extremely bad, but he is also clear-headed, has an extremely precise vision in the business field, and has always been profitable in everything he does..." Yin Xiang whispered: "The glass that is popular in the capital is his handwriting... ..."

"Li Hanlin has raised a good son..." Emperor Sheng sneered and said, "...Continue to investigate, don't startle the snake, I would like to know the origin of that maid..."

"Yes..." Yin responded and sat down. He is Emperor Sheng's teacher and confidant. He has always had face in front of him. Emperor Sheng treated him kindly. When the officials talked, He didn't care much about the etiquette of the monarch and his ministers.

Emperor Sheng thought about it in a low voice, and said: "...If it's just an ordinary maid, it's fine if Hanhou likes her, but why does the old matriarch of the Han family even look towards her?"

"Your Majesty, you mean to doubt her origin?!" Yin Xiang said hesitantly.

"Well. I don't think she will be so favored by a mere outsider." Emperor Sheng said in a low voice: "Aiqing, go and find out her origin for me. I suspect that she has something to do with the Han family. Back then... ...When Concubine Han Guifei died, a child was lost among the people..."

Startled, Prime Minister Yin bowed his head and said, "...Yes, the old minister complies."

Emperor Sheng sighed fiercely, his face regained a hint of sternness, and said again: "...Aiqing, let's go visit Hanhou with me."

Yin Xiang knew that he was willing to put his face down to play, so he was overjoyed and said: "...Yes."

Emperor Sheng ordered the chief eunuch in the palace to bring some tonics and precious medicinal materials in the palace, and then he went in a mighty way. He just wanted to turn the public opinion around and go to the Han Mansion to find out the truth. He really didn't believe it. Marquis Han is going to die of illness, hmph...

Yin Xiang looked at the back of Emperor Sheng, and sighed slightly. Although Emperor Sheng was of average aptitude, he was surrounded by powerful ministers sitting on the dragon chair, trembling. He took the throne nervously, how could he An Xin, over time, she was suppressed into this temperament...

If it wasn't for Han Ji being too strong and casting too deep a shadow on him, how could he be like this? !

Emperor Sheng didn't have any abilities at all, he was just a successful emperor, but he was always living under Han Ji's shadow, how could he be reconciled? !Coupled with the orders and tasks given to him by the old emperor, Emperor Sheng became more and more alive.

It seems that he has been forbearing all his life, and finally waited for an opportunity to quietly remove Cheng Wang and all the ministers of his lineage, but when facing Han Ji, he was always frustrated, and all the strong officials left, leaving only Han Ji, but Han Ji's momentum was getting stronger and stronger , it's hard to guarantee that he doesn't have the heart of disobedience now...

Han Ji can't stay, even if he is really loyal, he can't stay.

The common people only know Han Ji's name, but they don't know the reality of Emperor Sheng. As an emperor, how can he be reconciled, especially the old general of Emperor Sheng, who wants to get rid of all future troubles before he can safely hand over the country to his heirs.

On the way there, Emperor Sheng pulled Yin Xiang into the imperial carriage, but Yin Xiang refused, but he was forced into the carriage, but he kept kneeling beside Emperor Sheng tremblingly. Although he was close to the emperor, he was still a minister after all. No matter too much.

Emperor Sheng was a little tired, his face was full of helplessness, and he sighed lowly: "Aiqing, if one day I can't support it, tell me, which prince under me can take on the big responsibility..."

Yin Xiang hurriedly said: "Long live the sage, he must have great blessings."

"This is just Aiqing's hope. No emperor really lived to be a hundred years old. Could it be that he died young and was exhausted and crushed to death by this position. This position is so good Sit down?! My ancestors were handed over to me, but my talents are limited, I can only do this, maybe..." Emperor Sheng said in a low voice, "Han Hou has not been removed, so I left first..."

"Your Majesty..." Yin Xiang could hear the tiredness in his tone, and felt even more uncomfortable for a moment, saying: "The old minister is old, I'm afraid he will leave the Holy Majesty first, the Majesty will live a long life, " Then he sobbed softly.

Emperor Sheng sighed, and said: "For so many years, you have been by my side, solving my worries and problems, but I still have one last question. Among the three princes, who has the best qualifications?!"

Yin Xiang couldn't answer, because the qualifications of the three princes were even more mediocre than that of Emperor Sheng, and the eldest prince and the second prince were not close to him, and the third prince was his grandson, how could he say that? !
Therefore, Prime Minister Yin just avoided the seriousness and said lightly: "...It's too early for Your Majesty to consider this issue, His Majesty is still young..."

Emperor Sheng was silent for a while, and sighed: "...Maybe my country may not be able to be handed over to my son, heh, if I really am the last emperor, how can I go underground to meet Gaozu Gaozong?!" He smiled wryly, his face full of sourness, because he felt that he was fighting Han Ji harder and harder, and he never got any benefits.

When Yin Xiang heard this, he sweated even more and burst into tears, but he couldn't speak, so he murmured: "... Your Majesty, please don't say that..."

The two monarchs and ministers fell silent again. The palace gate was not too far from the Han Mansion, but they took a detour and walked for more than an hour. The main reason was that Emperor Sheng wanted to walk a little longer in the capital to let the people know and to show his kindness to the Emperor.This time, Emperor Sheng didn't let people clear the road on purpose, so the people soon knew that Emperor Sheng was visiting Hanhou, and it became more lively. Behind the guard of honor...

Finally arrived in front of the Han Mansion, Emperor Sheng was silent for a long time, looked at the plaque of Weiyuan Marquis Mansion for a long time, his eyes were complicated and unspeakable.

Yin Xiang whispered: "Your Majesty, we are here, come down..."

He knew that Emperor Sheng was somewhat humiliated, and even more unwilling.

Emperor Sheng clenched his fists tightly, no matter how unwilling he was, he still had to come and play.

Seeing that no one came out to greet him outside the gate of Hou's Mansion, only a housekeeper knelt in front of the door tremblingly, Emperor Sheng got off his imperial guard and asked in a low voice: "...there is no one in charge in the mansion?!"

The housekeeper trembled and said: "... Please forgive me, the Lord. The Marquis is seriously ill and unconscious. The old lady was frightened and passed out too. The first wife passed away, and the second wife also passed away. The others are all concubines. It is inconvenient for the young ladies to come out. The eldest young master has gone to Zhuangzi, and the family has been separated. The third young master has left the capital and returned to his ancestors. people..."

Emperor Sheng didn't know why he felt very happy after hearing this. He hated him to death just now, but now he felt extremely happy. Withered so far.After entering the courtyard, seeing the desolate and quiet courtyard with few servants and maids, I immediately felt better again.

He also knew the qualifications of Han Ji's son, let him be strong all his life, it turns out...it was nothing more than that, Emperor Sheng immediately became more psychologically balanced, so what if he was strong? !In the end, there is no successor? !
As long as he can hand over the seat to the next generation of emperors, and as long as Han Ji dies, then his son will no longer have to worry about the next generation of Marquis Han. He will severely clean up the next generation of Hanhou, and it is not an exaggeration to ransack his family and exterminate his family...

Immediately, Emperor Sheng felt incomparably balanced in his heart. He smiled, and a surge of joy surged in his heart, and his mood obviously improved a lot.

He entered the courtyard and saw the servants without a leader, flustered, trembling, and knelt in disorder. His mood improved again. Is this a sign of decay? !

The steward followed tremblingly, wanted to show the way, and was afraid of breaking the rules. When he was hesitating, Emperor Sheng just smiled and said: "... Are you the housekeeper of the Marquis Mansion?! Let me show you the way first, let me go Let's see how Han Hou is doing..."

"Yes." The butler then walked to the front, but he didn't dare to take the lead, he just followed behind Emperor Sheng, pointing the way carefully.

Emperor Sheng's mood became very good. When he walked to the wing room of the outer study, the housekeeper pointed and said: "... Your Majesty, Lord Hou is inside, still in a coma, I'm afraid he can't get up to greet His Majesty..."

There were quite a few imperial physicians inside, and someone had already reported that the saint was coming, so they all came out and knelt on the ground, saying: "...Long live the saint."

Emperor Sheng hurriedly helped him up, and said: "What's the matter?! Dear lovers, may the disease of Han Hou be cured?!"

All the imperial physicians got up, and the head of the hospital took a step forward and replied: "Returning to the Holy Father, Han Hou's fever has not subsided, and it is very dangerous, so I can't guarantee..."

Emperor Sheng nodded and stepped in.
