Because Luo Junyao was almost kidnapped by Qu Tiange, even after returning to the palace, Xie Yan's expression was still a little solemn.
The steward who was so frightened that he came to report the matter was also a bit silent, but Luo Junyao waved to him with a smile and said: "Your Majesty is not angry, just tell me if you have anything to do."
It sounds a little helpless, Luo Junyao really thinks that Xie Yan has a good temper, but he doesn't know why many people seem to be afraid of him.
Obviously he never loses his temper. He is much better than those moody powerful people who easily take advantage of others, right?
The steward hurriedly said: "Prince Qi and Princess, Prince Mu'an's Palace sent someone to tell them that...the old lady and the princess were taken away this morning."
King Mu and Princess Mu were taken away from the palace. Xie Yan, who was still lying in bed after being seriously injured, did not dare to say anything. He naturally knew who took away King Mu and Princess Mu, so he could only secretly call his cronies to come to the Prince Regent's Palace to talk to Xie Yan.
Say.
Yao Zhong really scared Xie Xun this time. Not to mention taking away King Mu and his wife, he would not dare to say a word even if he killed King Mu in front of him. It was not that he was unfilial, but the lives of his own family were more important.
In addition, objectively speaking, the things Yao Zhong did were actually helping Xie Zhong in disguise. Although he himself was seriously injured, he almost wiped out the whole family of the big house that he hated. Now even King Mu has been taken away
, Prince Mu'an's Mansion means that he is truly in charge.
Xie Yan knew in his heart that Xie Yan, the younger brother, looked down upon the things in the Mu'an Palace. In the final analysis, the two brothers had never had any grudges. It was the years when Xie Yan was bullied in the palace when he was a child, and Xie Yan was the first wife at that time.
The legitimate son's situation is slightly better than that of Xie Yan just because he is protected by people left behind by his deceased mother. It is not an exaggeration to say that we are in the same boat.
Therefore, Xie Jun is not worried that Xie Yan will cause trouble for him. He just wants to live a peaceful life holding on to his title of county king. If there are a few promising people among his descendants in the future, their branch may not have no chance to rise.
Xie Yan lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then said: "Reply to Prince Mu'an, in three days I will tell the world that King Mu and Princess Mu will be imprisoned in Jinshui Villa for life."
The steward was stunned for a moment. Jinshui Villa was built by Emperor Gaozu specifically to imprison royal nobles who had committed serious crimes and were inconvenient to be killed. It seemed to be much more decent than Tianlao, but in fact it was not much better than Tianlao. However, the prince was a human being.
Son, imprison his biological parents...
Seeing him standing still, Xie Yan frowned slightly and said, "Why don't you go?"
Only then did the steward come to his senses and hurriedly responded: "Yes, I will go and send the message right now." After that, he bowed and bowed and left.
Looking at the steward's back as he hurried away, Luo Junyao couldn't help but smile and said, "You're scaring people."
Xie Yan said calmly: "I am too timid, but I have many ideas."
Luo Junyao leaned in his arms and laughed non-stop. I really can't blame him for thinking too much.
In this world, filial piety is as big as heaven, and even the emperor dare not openly disobey the Queen Mother. The relationship between Xie Yan and Prince Mu has been criticized for being cold, and now he wants to imprison his biological parents. I don’t know if this move is
Unprecedented, but certainly unprecedented.
"However, when the Yao family's affairs are revealed to the world, everyone should be able to understand." Luo Junyao said.
The Yao family's affairs can only be regarded as evil for money for other people, but for King Mu and Princess Mu, it is parricide. Especially Princess Mu, the Yao family was wiped out because of their husband and wife, even if these two people were not involved.
If you have not personally killed a member of the Yao family, it is enough to be punished with death.
After thinking about it this way, just banning the two of them permanently doesn't seem to be very harsh.
Xie Yan played with her hair and said, "He asked people to take these two people away. I'm afraid he is preparing to leave Beijing."
"Oh? He wants to take King Mu and Princess Mu with him?" Luo Junyao was a little surprised, "Where are you going?"
Xie Yan shook his head, "He should have heard that I handed the Yao family's case to the Sansi Yamen this morning, and there will be a result soon."
"..." Master Mingguang is indeed very well-informed. Xie Yang just handed over the case to the Sansi Yamen in the morning, but it has not yet been announced to the public. The information he received was either someone in the court told him, or the Sansi Yamen was responsible.
Among the officials who handle specific errands are his spies.
But no matter what, the Yao family's murder case can be revealed to the world, and it can be regarded as an old thing.
Xie Yan obviously did not care about what happened to King Mu and Princess Mu in the future. Instead, he looked down at Luo Junyao and said, "You have been working hard recently. When the case of King Ning's rebellion is over in a few days, we will
How about staying in a villa outside the city for a while?"
Luo Junyao blinked his eyes and did not hold out much hope, "Do you have this free time?" Even if Prince Ning's matter is over, there are still Luanyi Division, and there are still those messy things in southern Xinjiang. Wait until these things are over
It's over, and it's almost time to celebrate the New Year. There will be spring next year, and Luo Junyao feels a little sympathetic to His Highness the Regent just thinking about it.
Xie Yan chuckled lightly and said: "It's not like I have always been so busy. I haven't been in Shangyong these years, so the court has been running the same way?" At the worst, we can squeeze Wei Changting and others more.
Xie Yan is really not a workaholic. He has a workaholic uncle and an equally hard-working cousin in front of him. He actually knows how to combine work and rest, but there is really no way to rush things during this period.
Once these things are settled, there will naturally be time.
Well, it would be best to select more useful young officials to join the court next spring, just to fill the gap in this rebellion. There are also capable local officials from various places who can also be transferred back to Beijing.
"Okay." Luo Junyao nodded.
Xie Yan chuckled and said, "Then, let's talk about the thing you injured Qu Tiange now?"
Luo Junyao's eyes lit up. He had just received some cold treatment from his father. When Xie Yan mentioned Luo Junyao again, he immediately became energetic.
She stood up from his arms and called Ling Lan to bring her things.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After a while, Ling Lan came over holding two boxes.
When Ling Lan put the boxes on the table and stepped back, Luo Junyao reached out and opened the two boxes, his eyes shining brightly as he said, "Look, what's the difference?"
Xie Yan lowered his head and looked at it carefully, and said: "This is a crossbow..." Xie Yan has been on the battlefield all year round, so he is naturally familiar with these weapons. It only took a moment to understand, "It has been modified and it is much lighter.
It can be launched by hand. But the range and lethality..."
Luo Junyao said with a hint of pride: "I modified this based on Xueya's concealed weapon. The prototype of the concealed weapon should also be a very powerful concealed weapon, but that thing is too delicate and has complicated craftsmanship and is not very useful on the battlefield. This one is just a scaled down one.
Model. The ideal state is twice as big as this one. Although it also requires both hands to launch, it can fire nine arrows in a row, and the effective range is farther than that of a bow. The most important thing is that this arrow is very convenient to load and can be fired at once.
Sex fills nine arrows.”
Xie Yan's eyes were bright and he smiled appreciatively, "Shake is really awesome."
"Of course!" Luo Junyao smiled, "Look at this again."
Xie Yan's fingers gently brushed against the gun placed in the box. The entire gun body was about one foot long.
Luo Jun shook his head and said: "Yes, it's a pity that the effect of this thing is not as good as I expected. If Qu Tiange hadn't been close at that time, he might not have been able to hit him. No wonder dad doesn't like him, and it seems he has to try harder.
Just improve it."
Xie Yan narrowed his eyes slightly and asked in a warm voice: "At what distance did Yaoyao hit Qu Tiange?"
Luo Junyao was thinking about something and casually replied: "Just three or four steps away."
After the words fell, Luo Junyao came back to his senses and instantly felt that the atmosphere around him was a little cold.
When he raised his head, he saw Xie Yan's deep eyes, staring at him intently.
Luo Junyao suddenly felt his scalp numb, "Um...I'm fine. Qu Tiange was beaten away by me. Moreover, when I took action, I stepped back, at least seven or eight steps away."
Xie Yan stared at her for a while, then sighed and said: "Do you know that if Qu Tiange really hurts someone, he can hurt you even if you retreat ten steps away?" Ordinary masters were seriously injured.
, as long as the ability to counterattack has not been completely lost, a heavy counterattack must be carried out.
Just seeing how Qu Tiange was injured and still ran so far without finding anyone, it was impossible for Qu Tiange to have no power to fight back at that time. Shake now might not be able to withstand the angry blow from a top master.
Qu Tiange walked away injured, not because he was unable to hurt others, but because he didn't want to.
Luo Junyao's eyes were wandering around. Of course she knew that her escape today was a lot of luck. "I can't help it. I just happened to encounter him. I can't just catch him."
Looking at her innocent little appearance, Xie Yan didn't know what to say.
He could only reach out and hold her in his arms, caressing her soft hair and said: "In the future, if you encounter an opponent with a disparity in strength, run away if you can. If you can't run, don't fight hard. In this world, few people really
He dared to kill the regent princess without risking his life. As long as he lives, there is still room for change in everything."
"But if I am caught, I will be used to threaten you and dad." Luo Jun said, it would be embarrassing if she was used as a bargaining chip to threaten Xie Yan and dad.
Xie Yan said softly: "It doesn't matter, both to me and to my father-in-law, shaking is the most important thing."
After all, he still couldn't bear to tell her to stay in the mansion and avoid going out. Xie Yan knew what kind of character the little girl in his arms was, so he asked her to stay in the mansion all day long like an ordinary woman.
With a group of maids and servants among the powerful, I am afraid that this delicate and beautiful flower will become withered in a few days.
"I will work hard to become stronger. Now I can't beat Qu Tiange just because I'm not strong enough!" Luo Junyao said seriously.
She likes to run around and doesn't like being followed by a group of people, but she can't accept being used as a bargaining chip to threaten Xie Yan and her father.
Of course she knew how much her father and Xie Yan valued her, but there were always some bottom lines in the world that could not be exchanged or compromised. Luo Junyao never wanted to test whether she was more important to Xie Yan or some bottom lines.
Because she never thought that she would give up everything for Xie Yan. Does this mean that she doesn't love Xie Yan?
As a human being, you always have to stick to some bottom lines, and this has nothing to do with whether you love someone deeply or not.
What she has to do is not to let herself become a tool and bargaining chip for others to challenge the bottom line of the person she loves.
Xie Yan hugged her gently and said softly: "Shao Yao is already very powerful."
If Yao Yao had not married him, the second girl of the Luo family would not have encountered these dangers at all.
He really couldn't guard her all the time, nor could he keep her in a safe place without being able to go anywhere.
However, he can get rid of all the people who would threaten her, so that the remaining people who have the ability to threaten her would not dare to think like that again.
Luo Junyao felt that this topic was a bit heavy, so he immediately changed the topic as soon as he rolled his eyes, "Dad doesn't like my new weapon, and my eldest brother doesn't have time to look at it. What do you think?"
Xie Yan said sternly: "It's very good. Although there are still many shortcomings and the current practicality is not great, but... if it is true as what Yao Yao said to his father-in-law before, there will definitely be a lot of potential in the future."
Luo Jun shook his eyes and blinked, "Then...can I find some skilled craftsmen to modify it with me?" She doesn't want to study these things every day, she still prefers gorgeous clothes and beautiful accessories to weapons.
Xie Yan said: "I'll transfer a few people from the Ordnance Bureau who are good at this to Yayao for dispatch."
Xie Yan really feels that this thing has great potential. Although it is indeed unlikely to be widely used at present, it does not mean that he cannot see the possibility in the future. If the country is now peaceful and the people are safe and the treasury is full, he may even invest a lot of money and manpower in research.
.
Luo Junyao cheered, hugged him and said, "Great, I will be able to transform it into something suitable soon, and then you won't have to worry about my safety."
Xie Yan nodded and smiled: "Okay, I'll wait to see the results of shaking."
Now I can only let Yao Yao lead others to play with him first.
"Your Majesty and Princess, the eldest lady of the Su family wishes to see the Princess." At the door, the manager of Jingyuan came over to report.
Luo Junyao was a little surprised, "Sister Su Rui? Why is she here now?"
The steward said respectfully: "I don't know, but Miss Su said she wanted to see the princess for something."
Thinking that Su Rui might be his future sister-in-law, Luo Junyao immediately stood up and said, "Ayan, I'll go out to see Sister Su Rui first."
As he was about to run out, Xie Yan was a little helpless, "Shao Yao, these..." Pointing to the things on the table, Luo Junyao said nonchalantly: "Put it here first, I can give it to you."
Anyway, she was not very satisfied with these two things. With the help of people from the Ordnance Bureau, she could quickly make a better one.
Seeing her figure disappearing out of the door, Xie Yan sighed softly, his fingers gently brushed the copper barrel, and his eyes gradually deepened.
"Go and ask Mr. Luo and Gu Jue to come."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
