Reborn to marry ex-husband's nemesis

Chapter 544

"Empress, please be careful!" Hai Xiuyan, who was standing on the side of the prince, took a step forward, seemingly humble but secretly murderous, "The fourth prince forced the palace, the Chen family murdered the king, can the empress, as a relative, get rid of the suspicion? Instead of questioning His Highness the Crown Prince here, empress should consider how to give an explanation to the people of the world!"

"You—" the queen was angry, she pointed at Hai Xiuyan, then pointed at the prince, and smiled angrily, "Okay, it's very good, I guess I missed it at the beginning! Xiao Yichen, you really are Are you able to ascend the throne as king? You wait for me!"

After saying this, the queen walked away in a huff.

"Your Highness." Seeing this, Prime Minister Hai standing aside had an upright face, with the chill and coldness of a superior on his face, "No matter what, the empress is your mother, and your actions are indeed against filial piety."

"Filial piety?" Without waiting for the crown prince to speak, Hai Xiuyan chuckled, "Your prime minister's words are really good. I dare to ask you a question. Prime Minister Hai keeps talking about filial piety. How dare you ask yourself if you can do it?"

When seeing that familiar smile on Shanghai Xiuyan, Prime Minister Hai's expression changed slightly.

Hai Xiuyan didn't care what he thought: "Your official knows that Hai is the same as the Queen's Empress and even his relatives, so naturally he is towards the Queen's Empress, but Prime Minister Hai doesn't want to be finished. As the saying goes, you don't help your relatives, let alone you are a prime minister. If you don’t lead by example, then what kind of laws are there in this court? What rules does the Great Liang have? Isn’t everything messed up?”

Hai Xiang's expression changed immediately.

In fact, as early as the first time he saw Hai Xiuyan, Prime Minister Hai guessed that this was his son, but back then he killed their mother and son with his own hands, not to mention under such circumstances, even the Bodhisattva would be hard to save even if he was alive They, therefore, Prime Minister Hai hastily denied this conjecture.

What's more, Hai Xiuyan seems gentle, but in reality he is cunning and ruthless, and his methods are clean and neat. He is said to be His Majesty's confidant, but in the Imperial Academy, he is actually a knife in His Majesty's hand.

In the past two years, His Majesty has become increasingly obtuse, and countless people have been killed, but Hai Xiuyan has always been trusted by His Majesty, which is beyond the reach of Gu Changyan.

Qiuniang is just a weak girl with no ability at all, how can she teach someone like Hai Xiuyan who is deep in the city?

When he got to a place where no one was around, the prince said to Hai Xiuyan: "If you talk to him like that, aren't you afraid that he will target you in the court?"

"Now that His Majesty has passed away, His Highness, as the crown prince, will naturally become the new emperor. I believe that His Highness will protect this humble minister with all his blood for Your Highness and for the sake of Liang." Hai Xiuyan said here, smiling, "Who doesn't know The fourth prince committed suicide in fear of crime after forcing the palace and defeating the army. Now the empress embarrasses Her Highness everywhere, the purpose is self-evident, and the Prime Minister Hai is helping the empress empress in this way, and his heart can be punished. Therefore, both public and private, the ministers should help the prince Your Highness."

After hearing this, the prince smiled gently and said, "You should know, I don't have that kind of thought."

That seat, anyone who wants to sit can sit.

Hai Xiuyan frowned, but he didn't say anything in the end.

But it was already evening when Hai Xiuyan was busy with many matters in helping the prince.

As soon as he came out of the palace, he saw Yan Jiu waiting outside.

Seeing Hai Xiuyan, Yan Jiu's eyes lit up, and she stepped forward in two steps.

"grown ups."

Ever since Yan Jiu returned to the capital with Hai Xiuyan, she has been living in the Zhuangyuan Mansion. Because of Yan Jiu's pure and simple heart, Hai Xiuyan will inevitably take good care of her. Everyone in the house knows that if nothing happens, This Yan girl is afraid that she will be the future wife, so everyone respects her very much.

Seeing Yan Jiu, Hai Xiuyan chuckled, with helplessness: "Didn't I tell you everything, don't wait for me."

"The housekeeper said that the current situation is not peaceful, and your lord is in an important position, so I am afraid of being ambushed, so I came here to wait for you, and I will protect you, so no one dares to do anything to you."

"You really..." Hai Xiuyan shook his head and laughed, "Have you had dinner yet?"

"I'll wait for my lord to go back together!" Yan Jiu said, "I used to have meals with my aunt in Qisha Pavilion."

After Yan Jiu finished speaking, she took a careful look at Hai Xiuyan, and carefully asked, "My lord, are you unhappy?"

Hai Xiuyan paused, and said with a smile, "How can you tell that I'm unhappy?"

"When your lord is happy, your eyebrows are raised, and when you are unhappy, your eyebrows are lowered. I saw that although your lord is smiling, but your eyebrows are always lowered, I guess you must be unhappy, but what happened in the palace? "

With just a few words, Hai Xiuyan had mixed feelings in his heart.

For so many years, he has been used to being alone. He remembers the most difficult time, even surviving was a problem. No one would care if he was happy or not. He is also used to doing everything by himself. Now that he heard what Yan Jiu said , Hae Soo-yeon couldn't describe his feelings.

It's like when you are extremely cold, a pair of warm hands suddenly come to wrap you tightly, and you realize what it feels like to be warm, and you don't want to let go.

"Children don't care about adults' affairs!" Hai Xiuyan said.

Even so, the smile on his face brightened a lot.

Yan Jiu was called a child by Hai Xiuyan, she was not angry, she gritted her teeth and stepped forward, angrily said as she walked, "I'm not young!"

"is it?"

"It's just... just three years younger than you!"

"One day is young, let alone three years old!"

"So what? Am I better than you?"

"I'm smarter than you."

Hearing this sentence, Yan Jiu stomped her feet fiercely.

Hai Xiuyan was about to say something, when he saw a woman standing at the corner of the alley, his eyes changed slightly, and he said to Yan Jiu, "Just wait here."

After finishing speaking, he walked forward, not knowing what he had said to the woman, and they walked to a secluded place.

"My lord." The woman smiled gently, looking at Hai Xiuyan with relief in her eyes.

If you look carefully, you will find that this woman is the one that Chu Zhi ran into with Hai Xiuyan back then.

"Aunt Qing, why are you here?"

Aunt Qing looked at Hai Xiuyan and said with a smile, "Aunt Qing misses you, so I came to see you."

Hai Xiuyan stared at Aunt Qing for a while, frowned slightly, "Aunt Qing, are you in trouble?" Finally, his face changed slightly, "But that heartless man found you?"

"No." Aunt Qing said, "I just miss you, nothing else."

Hai Xiuyan didn't believe it, before he could open his mouth, Aunt Qing said: "Master, I heard that you brought back a girl, I haven't seen it yet, but that one just now? Is it convenient for me to meet?"

"It's her." Hai Xiuyan said, "Aunt Qing, who did you listen to?"

Hai Xiuyan, who has always been calm, felt a little embarrassed at this moment.

"You don't care who said it, anyway, I came here today to meet that girl."

Hai Xiuyan had no choice but to turn back, stood at the entrance of the alley, and waved to Yan Jiu. Yan Jiu's eyes lit up, and he jumped in front of Hai Xiuyan in two steps.

"Son."

Hai Xiuyan coughed softly: "An elder wants to see you, so follow me."

elder?

Yan Jiu thought of the woman she saw.

Could it be her?
