Your Majesty, congratulations on your birthday!

Chapter 55
"Jade pendant? Is it the one I gave to the emperor? It was given to me by my mother. My brother should understand what I mean when he sees it." Concubine Hua thought for a while and said.

Even so, Concubine Hua gave this jade pendant to Hao Tianen. General Li knew about it, and what Hao Tianen was afraid of was that General Li would think that he would send false information to him behind Concubine Hua's back.

"Is there any way for you to get in touch with General Li and tell him what you think?" He thought that it would be better for Concubine Hua to contact General Li in person.

"That's it!" Concubine Hua hesitated, thought for a while, and then said: "Your Majesty, don't be angry if I tell you, my brother may have been putting eyeliner in the palace to pay attention to whether I am doing well, so... "

"So, I'm putting you under house arrest, and General Li also knows about it." In this way, things are hard to say. If this eyeliner is someone from Haotianen, then he might help Haotianen, but...

"Then do you know who this eyeliner is?" Hao Tianen asked anxiously, if General Li believed the rumors, it would be too late.

Concubine Hua shook her head helplessly.

"Well, Concubine Hua, follow me back to Xiangge first, and then make other plans." Hao Tianen took Concubine Hua's hand and walked out, ordering as he walked: "The guards have withdrawn, and the Palace of Beauty is grounded. Concubine Hua moved to Xiangge."

Concubine Hua was also flattered, with a happy smile on her face, she nestled happily beside Hao Tianen, and followed him step by step towards Hao Tianen's car.

Looking at this posture, Hao Tianen is going to sit on the same dragon chair with Concubine Hua. This kind of treatment is a supreme favor for a concubine, which even the queen has never had.

Concubine Hua was really flattered, and she just snuggled into Hao Tianen's arms and laughed, and had nothing else to say.

When I returned to Laixiang Pavilion, I saw Lian Er standing at the door of Laixiang Pavilion.

Fortunately, Lian'er was waiting for him at the door, otherwise Haotianen would have forgotten about Lian'er.

"Come here, take Concubine Hua to live in a side room." After Hao Tianen ordered, he handed Concubine Hua to a nanny, "Take good care of Concubine Hua."

After the nanny agreed, she led Concubine Hua in.

This is Lai Xiang Pavilion, besides, Concubine Hua has been confinement for so long, her personality has been restrained a lot, she just lived in a side room under the leadership of the nanny without saying a word.

"Come here, take Lian'er to the hall, and arrange for her to pour tea and water." After an order, another corresponding person came and took Lian'er away.

After Hao Tianen dealt with these matters, he immediately walked to the queen's room.The queen is living with him, he still needs to explain to her, it's a matter of face.

As soon as the door of the queen's room was pushed open, she was seen practicing calligraphy at the desk.

"Queen, I have something to tell you." Hao Tianen walked in front of the queen with big strides.

The empress practiced her calligraphy very attentively, she hadn't seen the emperor come in before, but now she was shocked when she heard him yelling, a good word was ruined like this, the empress was all sorry.

"See the emperor." The queen quickly put down the pen and bowed to Hao Tianen.

"Excuse me." Hao Tianen stretched out his hand to help her up, "I will also take Concubine Hua here, the queen has no objection!"

Dou Xiaoyun was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "Of course the concubine has no objection to what the emperor is talking about! Sister Concubine Hua has not seen the emperor for a long time, and the emperor should take her here to live."

There is no trace of displeasure on Dou Xiaoyun's face. This is what Hao Tianen hates the most. Dou Xiaoyun's heart is too deep, bottomless, as if she can bear everything, which makes Hao Tianen feel It's terrible.

However, it was impossible for Hao Tianen to show disgust on his face. After appeasing the queen, he went to the study.

After a busy morning, I don't know if Xie Xique has woken up. It's already time for lunch. She must be waking up soon.

"Your Majesty, Imperial Master Jing Yun is asking to see you." At this time, someone outside the door announced.

Jing Yun is here?Hao Tianen was puzzled, why did he come at this time? In the early morning, he didn't feel that he had any important matters to discuss with him.

"Biography." Hao Tianen said while walking towards the study.The study is where he and Jing Yun discuss matters.

As soon as Hao Tianen arrived at the door of the study, he saw Jing Yun coming in from the outside.

"Jing Yun, why are you so anxious?" Hao Tianen looked at Jing Yun's expressionless face, once he encountered something urgent, his face always looked like this, Hao Tianen had a premonition that something was wrong.

After entering the study, Jing Yun closed the door, and then said: "Your Majesty, I heard that General Li has gone to Beijing, and also secretly met with the Empress Dowager."

"So soon?" Hao Tianen was surprised, "Why didn't I hear anything?" It stands to reason that even if General Li wanted to implement the original plan, pretending to agree to the Queen Mother and then secretly deal with the Queen Mother, he should come to contact Hao Tianen first. Why didn't he notify Hao Tianen of General Li's return to Beijing!
Hao Tianen's heart was full of doubts.

"Jing Yun, is this news accurate?" Hao Tianen asked, frowning deeply.

"It's absolutely true!" Jing Yun poked his head in and said quietly to Hao Tian'en, "Perhaps General Li didn't know about our relationship with Juxian Building, and he came to Beijing secretly for fear of going to the other three restaurants to meet him. Acquaintances attract attention, so he chose Juxian Building to approach the Queen Mother's people, that is...Prime Minister Dou."

Prime Minister Dou!This old man's ambition is really big. It's not enough for his daughter to be a queen, but he also wants his son to be the emperor. His ambition is not only big, he has planned it long ago.

"Did you see it with your own eyes?" Hao Tianen asked.

"Jiang Fengchen saw it. When he visited the border many years ago, he happened to have a relationship with General Li, so he remembered this person. As soon as General Li entered the door, he happened to be seen by him, but General Li did not see it. he!

"Good! Good! Good! I think this General Li wants to pretend to help me, but in fact he wants to join forces with the Queen Mother!" Hao Tianen was already a little angry at this time, and asked, "Jing Yun, do you think we should How to do it?"

Jing Yun thought for a while and said: "Actually, the people around the Queen Mother have their own reasons for following the Queen Mother. General Xiang Li, he did everything for Concubine Hua, and Prime Minister Dou, didn't the Emperor say that He has hidden a son, does he want his son to sit on the dragon chair in the future! Since they all have weaknesses, and it is so obvious, then everything will be easy!"

"How do you say it?" Hao Tianen said, seeing Jing Yun's confident face, he was quite interested when he came.

"After the emperor told me about the prime minister, I mentioned it to Mr. Jiang again. Mr. Jiang has a lot of contacts in the Jianghu, and he promised to help me find out the hiding place of that turtle son!"

Jing Yun's face was beaming with pride.

"Brother Jiang found it?" Hao Tianen's heart suddenly became very nervous. If he found the son of the Dou family, then everything would be easy to talk about. If he controlled his son, Prime Minister Dou would never have the guts to help the Queen Mother again. The Queen Mother lost the help of Prime Minister Dou...

Jing Yun nodded happily, and said: "Prime Minister Dou's scheming is really deep enough. He didn't hide this son in other places, but in the Wang family next door. Prime Minister Dou's son is the youngest son of the Wang family. The youngest son's house and Prime Minister Dou's house are only separated by a wall. Mr. Jiang sent someone to follow Prime Minister Dou for a long time at first, but he couldn't find any clues, so he boldly made a guess. See Dou The prime minister, the old fox, would just hide his son in his own home, so he looked for a lot of connections to see if Prime Minister Dou was special to a servant in the family, but after some inquiries, there was no result, so he guessed again Whether Prime Minister Dou will hide his son in a secret room, it is necessary to ask the person who built the prime minister's mansion at the beginning, so he asked all kinds of construction workers who have been in the prime minister's mansion for decades One more time, at the end..."

"Finally, I found out that the prime minister had someone build a secret passage with the Wang family in a certain year?" Hao Tianen continued following the clues.

Jing Yun nodded and said, "Yes. Originally, the Prime Minister issued an order to kill this construction worker. Coincidentally, this construction worker was rescued by one of Jiang's men, and he has been following this construction worker ever since. This time, I heard that Young Master Jiang was investigating the prime minister’s house, so I recommended myself to find Jiang Fengchen and explained what happened back then.”

All of these, as if arranged by God in the dark, developed very smoothly.

"Then, Brother Jiang must have sent someone to follow General Li!" Hao Tianen finally showed a smile on his face. It seemed that everything would come to an end soon.

Jing Yun nodded: "It's all thanks to Brother Jiang. It seems that our trip out of the palace was really rewarding!"

The two laughed happily.

"How is Miss Magpie? Mr. Jiang misses her very much, and even said that he would let her recover from her injury and go out to play with him!" Jing Yun asked.

Hao Tianen is in a good mood today, and he generously stopped eating those jealousy, and said with a smile: "She is doing well. Come in with me and have a look, she even talked about you!"

After hearing this, Jing Yun said, "He must be saying that I have no conscience not to visit her!" They have been together for a long time, and they have already understood Xie Xique's temperament very well.

In the secret room, Xie Xique had already woken up, squinting her eyes and closing her eyes to rest her mind. She originally wanted to chat with the phantom, but after shouting into the air for ten minutes and threatening for ten minutes, the phantom did not show up.Xie Xique was so angry that his head would explode, and he was tired, so he just closed his eyes and rested his mind, waiting for Hao Tianen to come to see her.

As soon as Haotianen and Jingyun entered the door, a flying pillow hit them, and then they heard Xie Magpie crackling like firecrackers: "Haotianen, please return me the black and white impermanence, I don't want that Dead Phantom, I told him to ignore me for a long time, I didn’t give me water to drink when I was thirsty, I didn’t cook for me when I was hungry, and I didn’t need tortoise breathing exercises to help me when I wanted to go to the bathroom, hurry up, hurry up, I want you to give me back Black and White Impermanence right now!" At this moment, she really felt how fun Black and White Impermanence is, and she regretted it when she thought about it, if she didn't bully them so much at the beginning, now they can still accompany her She is playing!

Hao Tianen caught the pillow and said with a smile: "Phantom is the one with the best heart among all the hidden guards. He won't listen to anyone else except my orders."

"So, give me back Black and White Impermanence, I don't want that wooden protection."

"No." Hao Tianen refused straight away, walked to the table, opened the stove cover, and a scent of fragrance wafted out just like that.

Xie Xique just wanted to open his mouth to argue with Hao Tianen, when he asked about such a scent, his mouth immediately overflowed with saliva, there was no time to talk, it was too late to swallow.

"Well, hurry up, I'm hungry." Xie Xique licked his face and said while licking his lips.

Seeing this scene, Jing Yun finally couldn't hold back his laughter.

Xie Xique only saw another person standing in the room when he heard the voice. This person was Jing Yun, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, and immediately became interested again, and started dealing with Jing Yun.

"Master Jing Guo, you're doing well these days." Xie Xique greeted him with a smile.

Jing Yun walked to Xie Xique's bedside, looked at Xie Xique carefully for a while, and said: "Not bad, not bad, recuperating well, you've gained weight!"

When Xie Xique heard that he had gained weight, his face immediately turned green, and he shouted: "You are the only one who is fat. I curse you for gaining ten catties." In fact, he hasn't looked in the mirror for a long time, and Xie Xique himself doesn't know his situation anymore.

Jing Yun hurriedly begged for mercy and shut up.

At this time, Hao Tianen had already filled a bowl of chicken soup, brought it to the bed, and said, "You drink it yourself or I feed you!"

"Myself..." Xie Xique originally wanted to say that I drank it myself, but on second thought, it would be better to bully Phantom.

"I want that piece of wood to feed me!" Xie Xique opened his eyes wide and looked at Hao Tianen, his face brimming with aura, pointed to the ceiling lively, and said.

Hao Tianen was speechless.

Jing Yun covered his face and smiled.

"Whoever tells him to bully me and refuses to feed me, I will go on a hunger strike. I will do what I say!" Xie Xique turned his head away and deliberately did not look at the bowl in Hao Tianen's hand. Show Hao Tianen the appearance of surrender.

Hao Tianen knew Phantom's character well, and of course he also knew Xie Xique's character, and when he thought about it, he knew that Xie Xique was really hurt in his heart this day.

So I had to shout: "Phantom."

With an order, the Phantom immediately appeared in front of Hao Tianen's eyes, lowered her head and said, "Master, please order."

The corners of Phantom's eyes twitched. This was the master's order, and it was not easy to refuse, so she had no choice but to take the bowl and squat halfway in front of the bed, holding the spoon in one hand and the bowl in the other, and said, "Girl, please enjoy."

Seeing Phantom's low-browed and pleasing look, Xie Xique felt so happy in his heart.

Now I can finally have a chance to make things difficult for him!
"Hold it up to let it cool down before giving me a drink!" Xie Xique said.

"Yes." Phantom kept her head down, kept the posture just now, squatted halfway in front of the bed, and waited for the time when Xie Xique thought it was time to drink.

After a long time, Xie Xique finally said, "Okay, let me have a taste."

Phantom immediately raised the spoon in front of Xie Xique, Xie Xique lightly touched the spoon with his mouth, and quickly said: "No, no, it's too cold. You can heat it up before drinking!"

Phantom was stunned. It is okay to let the hot soup cool down, but how to heat it up after it is cold?
"Does the girl want me to go to the stove to warm it again?" Phantom asked.

Xie Xique smiled and said, "Where is it? If you add this ladle cold to the hot one in the stove, it will affect the taste of the whole pot of soup! Aren't you martial arts masters! I'm telling you to use your internal strength to I'll heat it up and drink it!"

Xie Magpie smiled innocently, but Phantom's face turned green, holding a bowl and a spoon, not knowing what to do!He could only look at Hao Tianen and Jing Yun, asking for help.

Jing Yun saw that Phantom was so pitiful, so he helped out and said: "Magpie, it's okay! You see that Phantom is already so pitiful, for my sake, let's call it a day! Drink it yourself, I have something to discuss with you Woolen cloth!"

After hearing Jing Yun's words, Xie Xique looked at Phantom's pitiful face and felt relieved a lot, so he said, "Well, I'll let you go, girl today. Bring it, and I'll drink it myself. "

Phantom immediately threw the bowl to Xie Xique as if she had been pardoned, and then disappeared in front of Xie Xique's eyes in an instant like fleeing.

Xie Xique was already hungry, so she drank the chicken soup immediately. She didn't need a spoon to drink the soup, she poured it directly into her mouth, and it was done in a few mouthfuls.

After drinking it, she felt that something was wrong. Thinking about what happened in the morning, um, Hao Tianen said that this soup can only be eaten tomorrow if it is stewed today, why is it given to her now, and the taste is a bit strange weird.

"Your Majesty, didn't you say that you can't drink this soup until tomorrow? Why are you giving it to me now?" Xie Xique looked at the empty bowl and asked.

Hao Tianen and Jing Yun were still engrossed in Xie Xique's genius-like devouring just now, this way of drinking chicken soup is really unheard of and never seen by civilized people like them!It was truly spectacular.

"Hey, I want to ask you a question. What are you doing stupidly!" Xie Xique saw the cute faces of the two of them, waved his hands impatiently, and shouted loudly.

Hearing the shouting, the two came back to their senses, glanced at each other, and coughed, Hao Tianen asked: "How is it? Does the soup taste okay? Is there anything that needs to be improved? Is there enough salt? Is the taste delicious enough, is the medicinal smell too strong, do you want to add some yam to remove the medicinal smell?"

A series of questions finally made Xie Xique understand that the bowl just now was for tasting!Just taste it.She nodded helplessly, and said: "It's okay, but it's too bland, you need to add a little more salt, it's too bitter, add a few red dates, the smell is too strong, you need to add a little more spice to go."

Hao Tianen nodded, remembering all of them in his heart.
