The two of them stepped into the study one after another. Xie Xiao reported the news of the past few days to Luo Junyao. Luo Junyao listened carefully to make sure that he had indeed not missed anything important. Then he nodded and the expression on his face relaxed slightly.
Some.
Xie Xiao looked at her expression and couldn't help but said: "The princess has changed a lot compared to the first time I met her."
After feeling relaxed, Luo Junyao was ready to chat. He glanced at him in surprise and said, "What's the change?"
Xie Xiao shook his head and said, "I can't say, but at that time... the princess wouldn't care about these things, right?" Even though Xie Xiao thought he had a lot of friends, he still had to admit that he was a little mistaken when he saw the regent princess.
When they first met at Prince Ancheng's Mansion, although he didn't think that the second girl of the Luo family was the arrogant and disgusting domineering daughter in the rumors, he only thought that this girl was smart, but she was pampered and a bit spoiled.
Just a little girl.
When he made the deal with Luo Junyao, it was actually a bit of a joke. At that time, he didn't expect that she would actually have a relationship with the regent.
Even though Luo Junyao married the regent, he still felt that the two were not so well matched.
The regent's responsibilities are too heavy, and this girl looks too delicate.
Only now did he realize how blind he was at that time. Her softness and cuteness were just a natural disguise for the princess. This girl was definitely as ruthless as the regent!
"Do you think I targeted the Fang family too harshly?" Luo Jun said with a clear face.
Xie Xiao raised his hand and touched his nose and said: "That's not true. I know that the princess does not kill innocent people indiscriminately." The lists given to them by the regent princess were strictly classified, and they were not just those related to the Fang family.
Kill all the piles.
Many superiors don't care about this, as long as they are killed by the enemy's subordinates without mercy.
This shows that this princess still has very principles and bottom line.
Xie Xiao just felt that such a bloody order should not be uttered from the mouth of such a girl who looked like she should be carefree.
I don’t know whether becoming the regent princess is good or bad for the already pampered Miss Luo Er.
Looking at the look on Xie Xiao's face, Luo Junyao already understood what he meant.
It can only be said that although Prince An Cheng has traveled around the world for many years, his vision of people is obviously not thorough enough. If she was really a soft and good girl, she would not have met Xie Yan at all, let alone come together with him
Already.
"Do you regret it?" Luo Junyao propped up his chin and looked at Xie Xiao and asked.
Xie Xiao was startled, "What?"
Luo Junyao said: "Boss Cui, there are so many emotions all of a sudden. Do you regret liking her?"
Xie Xiao immediately shook his head and said, "I will never regret it."
Luo Junyao said: "It's best not to talk about this kind of thing forever. If you are obsessed with it, it is easy to grow into hatred out of love."
Xie Xiao laughed and said, "Thank you, Princess, for reminding me, but... no, no matter what the outcome is, it is my own choice, and I will not hate her."
Luo Junyao nodded and said: "Okay, then...since these things can't be solved for a while, don't think about it for now. Just work hard on your career. Struggle makes people happy."
"..." As a prince and grandson who comes from a clan and has been superior to others since he was a child, Xie Xiao said that he has no career ambitions.
Xie Xiao was a little helpless, "What does the princess want to do?"
Luo Jun shook his chin and said with a somewhat solemn expression: "I just suddenly remembered something."
"What?" Xie Xiao said seriously.
Luo Junyao narrowed his eyes slightly, "Cao Mian is going back to Beijing from Qingzhou for the funeral, so...soon, does it mean that there is no one in charge of the Cao family in Qingzhou during this period?"
Xie Xiao was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted and said: "What the princess means is that we take this opportunity to send people to Qingzhou to investigate? Lord Dai should have arrived in Qingzhou by now, so this is an opportunity."
Luo Jun waved his hands and said, "Dai Yunwen's level is not high enough."
Dai Yunwen was originally the fifth rank of the Palace Chief Shi Zheng. On the way to Qingzhou, he was promoted to deputy inspector by Xie Yan. He was promoted from the fourth rank. It may be easier to use the title of regent to deal with ordinary corrupt officials, but the Cao family is obviously not an ordinary family.
.If Dai Yunwen acts impulsively, he will not only fail to get things done, but may also be in danger of his life.
Xie Xiao wondered: "Then who does the princess want to go? It can't be me, right? Master Dai can't do it, and I can't do it."
The title Prince Ancheng of Prince Ancheng is very useful in Shangyong, but it has no use locally unless someone is willing to betray his father's face or is afraid of the power of Prince Ancheng's palace.
Luo Junyao raised his eyebrows slightly and pointed at himself.
"Princess, you...you want to go to Qingzhou in person?!" Xie Xiao said in surprise.
Luo Junyao said calmly: "I told Cao Jie that I want Yingzhou, so I can't have never seen what Yingzhou looks like, right?"
Xie Xiao was speechless, and after a while he said: "The prince will not agree."
Luo Junyao said calmly: "Although we all say we don't know what the Cao family wants to do, but just looking at Cao Jie's actions and the constant turmoil with the Fang family, can you really not guess what the Cao family wants to do?
?”
Xie Xiao was silent.
Luo Junyao said: "If our guess is correct, let alone you and Dai Yunwen, I may not be able to solve this matter. In the end, I am afraid that Ayan will have to take action personally. But the mourning period for the Empress Dowager is too long now, and Ayan is
You can’t leave Shangyong.”
Xie Xiao thought to herself: "The regent can't leave the capital, how can you, princess?"
"Cao Mian is about to enter the capital. Why doesn't the prince take Cao Mian into custody at that time? By then the trees will fall and the hozens will scatter. Without Cao Mian, it should be much easier to investigate Qingzhou," Xie Xiao said.
Luo Junyao nodded slightly and said: "It may not be a solution, but let alone whether Cao Mian will really return to Beijing, even if he comes back... Wen Dinghou, the second-rank governor, the founding hero, and the personal title of Emperor Gaozu, has no solid evidence.
Let alone the regent's palace, even the late emperor can't do anything to him. Everything at present is our guess. Except for a few people captured by Chen Xunhe, we actually have nothing in our hands to prove what Cao Mian has.
Evidence of illegality. Even if it is Chen Xun and a few people from the Cao family, it will not be difficult for Cao Mian to clear his name. If Ayan puts him in prison, do you know what will happen? "
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Of course Xie Xiao knew that Cao Mian had an excellent reputation in the court and among the people and was a founding hero.
If the regent detains such a person without reason, the consequences may be disastrous if he is provoked by someone with ulterior motives.
Xie Xiao sighed and said: "No matter what the princess has planned, the subordinates will naturally follow her. But the prince..." He did not believe that the regent would agree to let the princess take risks.
Luo Junyao smiled and said, "Of course I will tell Ayan."
"No." Xie Yan rejected Luo Junyao's proposal without even thinking about it.
In the study, Xie Yan, who was still immersed in the memorial, heard Luo Junyao's words and suddenly raised his head, stared at her intently, and repeated in a deep voice: "No."
Luo Junyao put a chair opposite him, sat down and asked very seriously: "Why not?"
Xie Yan said: "It's too dangerous. Even if there is something wrong with Cao Mian, it is still a matter in the court. I will send court officials to deal with it."
Luo Junyao said: "Who can you send now? Someone who can handle this matter will definitely attract the attention of the Cao family once he leaves the capital. People who will not attract the attention of the Cao family will be useless. What's more, at least I still have
The ability to protect oneself, even if something happens, the identity alone is enough for the Cao family to not dare to act rashly, it would be more dangerous for you to send others."
"Shake." Xie Yan felt helpless and said, "This time I will hold Cao Mian directly in Shangyong."
Luo Jun said: "But...how do you determine whether the envoy's surname is Cao or Fang? What if you take down Cao Mian with your front foot and Qingzhou directly reverses with your back foot? Don't forget that the governor of Qingzhou can control the local troops. Qingzhou has
70,000 garrison troops. In addition...those soldiers and horses that Xue Ya said disappeared from southern Xinjiang and those pirates along the coast, who did they listen to?"
Xie Yan said solemnly: "Shao Yao, the Zhenguo Army and the Dingguo Army just don't want to fight now, it's not that they can't win. Even if Qingzhou has really rebelled, it's not impossible for the court to solve it." Dasheng now has no shortage of troops.
General, what he lacks is money, food and energy, but he can still manage a Qingzhou.
"But... it's better not to fight than to fight, right?" Luo Jun said.
Xie Yan was silent.
Seeing his solemn expression and frowning, Luo Junyao couldn't sit still.
He simply jumped up from his position, walked behind Xie Yan, hugged him, rested his chin on his shoulder and said, "Believe me, I can solve these things."
Xie Yan turned around and took her into his arms, whispering: "It's not that I don't believe you." He was worried, but also couldn't bear it.
If it were in Shangyong, he would have confidence in whatever she wanted to do. But a place like Qingzhou was thousands of miles away. If something unexpected happened, even if he had the ability to do everything, he would still be beyond his reach.
Luo Junyao said: "Not to mention my own skills, with Mr. Qu and Ye Feng escorting me, there will be no problem if I escape unscathed. Ayan, I want to help you, but I don't want you and dad to go to war again.
Although... sometimes war is unavoidable, why don't we try our best to avoid it if it can be avoided? Isn't it also because of this that you did not rush to conquer southern Xinjiang, but sent your eldest brother and Lingchuan Marquis there? "
Xie Yan smiled helplessly, how to tell her that he hoped that she could always stay where he could see her and never encounter any uncontrollable danger?
Such a cute and cute girl always blocks her petite body from the people around her when she least expects it, regardless of whether the person she is protecting is actually taller and stronger than her.
Perhaps it is this kind of courage and character that makes her so dazzling.
I want to hold this flame-like splendor in the palm of my hand and carefully protect it, but the existence of this flame itself means that it will not be imprisoned by anyone or anything.
Xie Yan fixed her on his knees, lowered his head and touched her forehead lightly and said, "Aren't you afraid that the general will worry?"
Luo Jun said: "Dad will support me."
"..." Your father will only beat you until you can't get out of bed or out of the house.
However, thinking of Luo Yun's doting on his daughter without any bottom line, Xie Yan was a little unsure.
It's not that Luo Yun is willing to let his daughter go out on adventures, but that General Luo may be deceived by his daughter.
Luo Junyao held his face and asked, "If it were Boss Cui and Leng Shuang, wouldn't you allow them to go too?"
Xie Yan raised his eyebrows, how could this be the same?
Luo Junyao said: "So you think that I am not as good as Boss Cui and Leng Shuang? It will be okay for them to go, but there will be problems for me to go?"
Strong words to make sense.
Xie Yan said: "I won't send Cui Zheyu and Leng Shuang, they can't solve this matter."
Luo Jun said: "I can."
Xie Yan looked at her and said nothing. Luo Jun said, "You don't believe me?"
He believed she could, for no reason, but he didn't want him to go.
Everyone has selfish motives, and the regent is no exception.
Xie Yan hugged her and sighed softly: "Aunt Huang passed away just now, and I feel very sad. Shake it off...can't you stay by my side to accompany me?"
"……"treacherous!
Looking at Xie Yan's haggard and tired face, Luo Junyao was speechless for a moment.
Of course she didn't want to leave Xie Yan at this time. Although she had developed the habit of giving orders and prohibitions in her previous life, and she had to leave immediately no matter what she was doing when a mission came, but this was not the previous life after all.
She is the regent princess, and she is not a court official of Dasheng. Without her, Dasheng would not die tomorrow.
right?
Why did she have to care about what was happening in Qingzhou, thousands of miles away?
"Okay... okay." Luo Junyao looked at Xie Yan's tired look and said softly: "You have been working too hard these days. You need to take a good rest these days."
Xie Yan nodded, "The same goes for you. The general told me yesterday that you have lost a lot of weight."
Hearing this, Luo Junyao couldn't help but raise his hand and touch his little face, "How can it be so exaggerated?"
"My father-in-law said so." Xie Yan said.
Luo Junyao sighed and said, "There is a kind of thinness called your father who thinks you are thin."
Xie Xiao knew the result when he saw the princess coming out of the regent's study with her head drooping.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Is the princess worried about death now?" Xie Xiaoxiao asked.
Although he likes to travel around, he doesn't like to risk his life. Qingzhou sounds very dangerous now, so it's better not to go.
Luo Jun glanced at him sideways and said, "Go and prepare. We will set off in five days."
"No, it's not..." Xie Xiao looked at Luo Junyao in shock, "Your Majesty agreed?" How is this possible?
Luo Junyao made a fake smile without sincerity, reached out and patted his shoulder and said: "Go back and accompany Princess An Cheng, maybe you can..."
Xie Xiao felt that her legs were weak and she almost fell to the ground, "Princess, you..."
Luo Junyao said: "Don't tell others, or I will kill you!"
Xie Xiao sighed and followed Luo Junya helplessly: "Princess, why do you have to take the matter on yourself? Even if you don't do it, someone will do it. You are not doing this to worry the prince and General Luo.
What?"
Luo Junyao turned back and glanced at him lightly and said: "Xie Xiao, if Qingzhou rebels, I will suggest Ayan to send Prince Ancheng to lead the army."
"I will resolutely obey the princess's orders. I will go wherever the princess goes!" The most poisonous woman's heart!
Luo Junyao nodded with satisfaction and said: "If it is something that many people can do, we really don't have to rush to do it. But... isn't there no one now? My father has been fighting for his whole life. If it is to defend against enemy invaders, that's it.
, I don’t want him to go to quell civil unrest again.”
The look on Xie Xiao's face became more serious, and after a while he said: "The old man is injured and hasn't fought in many years. It's better to let him stay at home with my mother."
