Qin Junze was choked to the point of speechlessness, but he would still settle the account.

Qin Cang narrowed his eyes, looked at Qin Xuanling, and motioned for him to continue.

Qin Xuanling's slender fingers unknowingly pinched the sachet at his waist and played with it on his fingertips. He felt a vague cool breath lingering around him, which was very refreshing.

He remembered clearly that it was given by Yun Xihe.

Qin Xuanling glanced at Qin Junze indifferently and said calmly,

"It's because of Junze that the scholars from a poor family are rioting like this. When I heard the slogans they shouted, I wanted to ask if scholars would be allowed to speak in this great world."

"This group of scholars responded to the call and gathered nearly a thousand people into the capital. On the surface, it seemed that it was a riot caused by resentment and dissatisfaction. In fact, if you think about it carefully, if you were not loyal and patriotic from the bottom of your heart, how could you expect to have a wise and receptive monarch? Therefore, I

I just thought it would be the best idea to welcome them to the capital."

Emperor Qin Cang pondered for a moment, and the anger on his face gradually dissipated.

"What Lao Qi said is right. Deep love leads to deep responsibility. This is also a blessing for Dashun. Junze got it wrong this time."

Qin Junze suddenly raised his head and his eyes widened in disbelief. His father didn't blame him?!

Qin Xuanling curled his lips sarcastically. The emperor's brother had been in power for so many years, and he could be considered to know people well, work diligently and love the people. But he found a prince who was so messed up that he couldn't help him, and he doted on him so much.

Don’t you know that being spoiled is like killing a child?

Xiaoli quickly found out about the student riots in Jiangnan, and also heard that the emperor listened to King Xuan's suggestion and intended to welcome the students to Beijing to appease them.

Yun Xihe lowered his eyelashes. The dignified prince would be foolish to offend his future right-hand man with his own hands.

During dinner time, the Cining Palace was brightly lit and very lively.

The emperor, the prince, and Qin Xuanling sat around the dinner table and chatted with the queen mother, showing a harmonious family scene.

When Yun Xihe went in with the soup and medicine, Queen Mother Jiang saw her and her eyes curled up, "Xihe is here."

Aunt Gui hurriedly stepped forward and took the tray from her hand.

After spending the past few days together, the Queen Mother became more and more fond of the future Crown Princess who was thoughtful, clear-cut, and extremely measured. She even liked the Prince.

"Junze, maybe you and Xihe haven't seen each other for a long time, right?"

It’s true that I haven’t seen you in a long time.

Qin Junze had never stepped foot into the Yun Mansion since the last time he was spanked and ran back to the mansion naked. He swallowed this hard because he was afraid of being reprimanded by the emperor.

When he saw Yun Xihe, the memory that had been deliberately forgotten immediately appeared in his mind again.

Yun Xihe, this vicious woman with a heart like a snake!

But in front of so many people, he still didn't dare to say anything, so he could only express his affection on his face, "The imperial grandmother is right, it's my grandson's fault. He has been busy with political affairs recently, so he has been neglected.

Xihe."

Qin Xuanling raised his eyes, and a coldness flashed in his indifferent eyes, which made Qin Junze very confused. Then he thought of something and started to become angry again.

Qin Cang was drinking tea with his eyes lowered and did not notice this scene, but the Queen Mother keenly noticed the changes in the expressions of the two people, her eyes flashed, and she couldn't help but squint.

What's going on with these two people?

Yun Xihe lowered his eyes, pretending to be a shy daughter, put down the medicine and tea very strictly, and bowed, "The Queen Mother made fun of me again. Your Majesty and Prince are both here.

I don’t want to bother you, so I’ll leave first.”

"Come back, come back, today is a family banquet, come on, come over to the Ai family." Empress Dowager Jiang put back her thoughts, stretched out her hand to call her, and pointed to the place next to her,

"Come and sit next to Ai's family."

Qin Cang also put down his teacup, with a friendly look on his face, "Xihe, the Queen Mother loves you, so please come and sit down."

Yun Xihe had no choice but to stop and step forward bravely.

The round table for dining is not small. The Queen Mother sits at the head of the table, the Emperor sits on her left, and the Prince sits next to her. Originally, Qin Xuanling should sit next to the Queen Mother’s right hand side. However, he has always had a weird temperament and does not like to be too close to others.

She was close, so by chance, there was an empty seat between her and the Queen Mother.

Yun Xihe had no choice but to sit between him and the Queen Mother, surrounded by the familiar ambergris.

Qin Xuanling's lips curled up inadvertently, then returned to normal.

Empress Dowager Jiang naturally talked about the students from Jiangnan, "I heard that the emperor intends to welcome the students from Jiangnan to Chang'an?"

Emperor Qin Cang put down the chopsticks in his hands and nodded, "My son does have this intention. It is better to block it than to block it. Since what his students want is a chance to speak, my son will give it to them!"

"Oh. Have you decided where to settle down?"

"Lao Qi just suggested that we settle in Zhiyi Academy. That place is spacious."

Prince Qin Junze saw that all the credit fell on Qin Xuanling's head, and immediately said, "Grandmother, my grandson has already thought about it. When the time comes, the students will gather together and hold a symposium like the ancients, and argue freely."

A beautiful thing.”

Empress Dowager Jiang didn't say yes or bad, she just nodded along with his words, "In this case, Chang'an will be lively again."

Emperor Qin Cang sighed, "It's just that I don't have a suitable candidate for the person responsible for comforting me yet. Originally, this was the trouble caused by Junze, and he should have stepped in, but...

"

Speaking of this, the emperor glanced at Qin Junze with hatred,

"Students are always sharp with their words, especially those who make the most fuss. They are all students who failed the exam. They are already very resentful towards the prince. If something goes wrong, it will be even worse."

The emperor is also interesting. He does not blame his own son for the trouble caused by the prince, but blames the resentment of other students who failed.

Yun Xihe lowered his head and pondered for a while, but if this scholar caused trouble, it would be a big trouble. He couldn't be beaten or scolded, and all his kind words might not be of any use.

But since they are here, why not take advantage of their strength to solve some practical problems...

Yun Xihe pursed his lips and raised his eyes to look at Qin Cang, "Your Majesty, I have some different ideas about the prince's proposed symposium."

In fact, what she said was very unruly.

First of all, her status is embarrassing and she is not a member of the royal family. Although she is the future crown princess, she is not married to the prince after all. Although she is given the same treatment as the eldest princess in taking care of the queen mother, she is not the eldest princess after all;

Secondly, even though she is a member of the royal family and is not allowed to interfere in politics in the harem, she refutes the prince's face and takes the initiative to offer advice, which is really disrespectful.

Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, the prince's face immediately turned ugly. He looked at her bitterly, muttering silently in his heart, "Yun Xihe, why do you always go against Gu!"

Qin Xuanling put down his chopsticks as if he was impatient, "It's a good family dinner, but we talk too much."

A family banquet immediately changed the atmosphere at the dinner table. A family banquet is not a court, so what about a few casual chats?

Queen Mother Jiang's expression paused and she couldn't help but look at Qin Xuanling a few more times. Then she smiled gently and said, "Look at us Xihe, we are determined to share the worries of our future husband."

The emperor originally looked a little displeased, but after hearing what Empress Dowager Jiang said, his thoughts changed.
