The Unruly Princess: Regent, please hug me

Chapter 978 The Hidden Truth

"Why did I not know about this at all back then? As the Regent, I didn't know anything about such a big event. Was it too negligent?" Chi Mubai didn't realize that there was such a thing in his memory, If he knew that he would definitely stop Yan Beier's plot, in fact, he was already at his wits end at the time, and the foreign invasion took up all his energy.

"Your majesty is such a noble man with troublesome things. I must have forgotten that you were suppressing the foreign invasion in the south at that time. It happened to be half a year since you left the capital. It is not a big deal for these things to happen in the past six months. Moreover, this woman committed suicide by herself. It is worth mentioning that one is always there, and there is no need to waste the precious time of the emperor. As for the emperor, he doesn't really like Cheng Xiaocheng. Cheng Xiaoxiao left only two months ago, and he looked for someone else Now, how much sincerity can such an emperor have for Cheng Xiaoxiao?"

Yan Bei'er's words reminded Chi Mubai that he had indeed left the capital for a relatively long period of time, and such things happened in the palace, but even if he knew about these things in the capital at that time, he could not interfere with the affairs of the harem. He couldn't use the court's order to instruct Chi Yueluo what to do?After all, Chi Yueluo is the emperor, and his harem affairs should be jointly managed by him and the empress. Although Yan Beier's intentions are sinister and her means are insidious, Chi Mubai still cannot criticize it.

"If it's really not important as the empress dowager said, why is the empress dowager afraid to see Cheng Xiao now? You can tell him that he did something wrong back then and you were not wrong. Use your empress dowager's majesty to prove to Cheng Xiao Let him see." Chi Mubai said in a nonchalant manner.Yan Bei'er's face turned pale, unexpectedly Chi Mubai would turn her into an army.

"If the explanation is useful, Cheng Xiaoxiao would not have died back then. Her explanation is not as good as the evidence. Your Majesty, the Ai family has already told you everything that happened back then. If you still want to worry about the Ai family, isn't it too much?" Too much? Don't forget that Ai Jia's father is still supporting the emperor in court."

Yan Bei'er's dark voice and sinister eyes reminded Chi Mubai of this fact.Chi Mubai looked at Yan Bei'er, although he was extremely unwilling and unrelenting in his heart, what Yan Bei'er said was true, and Prime Minister Yan thought it was Shen Qiqi's detoxification for him, although he also encouraged his subordinates to make trouble in the court.But as long as he didn't show up, there would be no huge waves. He was the last line of defense in all the voices against Shen Qiqi.

"I will do what I said, so please ask the empress dowager to cultivate herself in Wanyue Palace." Chi Mubai was also merciless, he turned around and left without looking at Yan Beier.

"Go, do what the Ai family told you last time. It seems that this Chi Mubai will not treat the Ai family well. The Ai family can't sit still and do what I told you last time." Yan Bei'er Said to Nanny Jian, Nanny Jian nodded, turned around and told her confidant to complete Yan Beier's explanation.

Chi Mubai returned to the imperial study room, sat in a chair, his mind was full of what Yan Bei'er said just now.Jin You followed behind him, but before he came back, he ordered someone to find out whether what Yan Beier said was true.Chi Mubai sat in the imperial study room without saying a word for half an hour, but there was news from outside, and Jin You immediately reported to Chi Mubai.

"The emperor has already found out that what the queen mother said is true, but what is a little different is that what we found out is that everything was ordered by the former emperor."

"Of course it was ordered by the late emperor. It is precisely because of the late emperor's order that Cheng Xiao hates the late king so much. Even if the late emperor dies, he will not let go of his hatred and transfer it to me, but what I want to know is who it is To issue orders on behalf of the late emperor? The only person who can make this decision is the empress dowager, only she can make the late emperor make such a decision."

Chi Mubai has roughly understood the whole thing here, now only how to rescue Shen Qiqi is left.Jin You originally wanted to stop Chi Mubai, but when he saw Chi Mubai's face, he didn't dare to open his mouth again. Last time he gave Chi Mubai the medicine to sleep peacefully according to Shen Qiqi's instructions, and forced Chi Mubai to sleep. Brought back to the capital, Chi Mubai was furious after waking up, and Jin You promptly handed over the letter written by Shen Qiqi himself. He was angry, but he was just waiting for the opportunity to erupt. If he still tried to persuade Chi Mubai at this time, he might take the anger from last time on himself as well.

"You will handle the daily affairs in the palace instead of me. I have reviewed the important matters, and Yang Ziyue will help you with the rest. I will come back as soon as possible. I will go with Ning Junliang, so don't worry, the two of us If there are many people to take care of, I'm afraid it will cause unnecessary commotion, and I don't want to disturb others. I think this Cheng Xiao, a literati who manages such a large quarry, must have certain skills , it would be a good thing if he could contribute to the imperial court."

Chi Mubai made a decision, and Jin You didn't dare to refute or persuade him, but he was a little relieved when he heard that he was going with Ning Junliang. Chi Mubai will be much less dangerous.

Qu Muban was already extremely tired, having dealt with government affairs for many days, he only slept for an hour or two a day, and Jin You put herbs in the incense burner that could relax and sleep peacefully.Qu Mubai didn't know that after smelling the smell of the medicine, he had already felt heavy drowsiness, and Jin You helped him back to ask the policeman to sleep without waiting for him to speak.He only said softly before Chi Mubai closed his eyes: "Your Majesty, you have to reserve your energy to rescue the princess. Sleep well, I will wake you up in four hours."

During this period, Qi Zhao had already woken up, he found Jin You, and Jin You was waiting for him.

"Don't worry, in addition to protecting the princess, I will also protect the emperor. As long as I am here, the emperor will not be harmed." Seeing Jin You's worried expression, Qi Zhao thought he was worried about Chi Mubai's safety, after all There may be an organ Qi Zhao hidden inside the quarry, but he has only been in it for less than an hour, and he doesn't know anything about the situation inside.

"Qi Zhao, we have been together for a long time. We are half brothers. I don't want to hide it from you at this time. I want you to see if there is anything else in the quarry. Our Qinglan country has always been short of mines. , especially iron ore for making weapons. I hope that iron ore that is useful for making weapons can be found in the stone mine this time. If we can find this, it can greatly reduce our burden. The emperor has been looking for iron ore for making weapons. I was worried. I thought Baicao Mountain could contain so much jade, maybe there would be iron ore, can you pay attention?"

He thought of iron from mines, and thought of sharing worries for Chi Mu.
