Chapter 311 The Emperor Knows His Idea
Chapter 311: Come up with ideas, the Emperor knows
After leaving the palace, Lin Zhaozhao returned to the Hou Mansion.
He quickly called the steward and asked about the whereabouts of the dog.
The steward looked helpless and spread his hands.
"Miss, the dog ran away a few days ago.
You were locked up in prison at that time, and Madam was in a panic.
Everyone in the house also jumped up and down, and no one noticed how the dog ran out.
When we came to our senses, the dog was gone."
All of them are trash and can't help at all.
Lin Zhaozhao gritted his teeth, couldn't hold it back, and kicked the steward hard.
"If you can't even watch a dog, what does the Marquis do to keep you?"
The steward groaned and fell to the ground.
Zhou Yixiu happened to come over and couldn't help frowning when he saw this.
"Zhaozhao, what's wrong with you?
Okay, why are you so angry?
If your grandmother sees it, she will punish you again."
Lin Zhaozhao looked aggrieved when he saw Zhou Yixiu.
"Mother, Princess Changping gave Zhao Zhao a dog last time.
He asked Zhaozhao to take good care of him, but Zhaozhao was imprisoned.
The dog was actually lost by the steward. When Zhao Zhao entered the palace today, the princess told him.
I'll see the dog in a few days.
Now that the dog is gone, what will Zhao Zhao do?"
As he talked, Lin Zhaozhao started crying.
Half of them were angry, and half of them were pretending to be pitiful in front of Zhou Yixiu..
Now she still needs Xiao Ning'an to help her, but she can't offend her.
Seeing Lin Zhaozhao crying so sadly, Zhou Yixiu could only think of something first.
"Okay, just a dog?
The steward didn't do it on purpose.
Ask him to find another one that is similar, and the princess may not recognize it..."
As of now, that's all it can do.
Lin Zhaozhao bit his lip and glared at the steward.
"You must find one, exactly the same.
If the princess discovers it, I will definitely not be able to get around you."
The steward stood up with a grimace, nodded and left.
Zhou Yixiu's heart skipped a beat when she saw Lin Zhaozhao like this.
She didn't know if she was overthinking it, but she always felt that Zhao Zhao was a bit violent these days.
But then I thought about it, maybe it was because the old lady’s teachings were too harsh.
Zhao Zhao acted like this because he was angry and had nowhere to vent.
————————————
Xiao Ning'an came to the Hou Mansion as promised, and Zhou Yixiu led everyone in the Hou Mansion to salute.
He was pushed away by Lin Zhaozhao, who asked the steward to bring the dog and handed it to Xiao Ning'an.
"Look, Princess, this dog looks so good."
Xiao Ning'an looked at the dog with some confusion.
"Is this the one I picked up last time?
Why, something is different? The color of the fur seems to be darker."
Lin Zhaozhao paused his hands and cursed the steward in his heart.
On the face, there was no clue.
“Perhaps it’s cold weather and the dog’s hair has lost its hair and it will grow back again!
Don’t worry, Princess, I will take good care of the dog!"
Xiao Ning'an hugged the dog and scratched its head.
"Thank you for your hard work, but it's a pity that the queen mother doesn't want it.
Hey, I went to the Queen Mother's house before I came to the Hou Mansion today.
Every year at this time, the queen mother would prepare a vegetarian feast to honor her father.
In previous years, I was a little overwhelmed. I wanted to ask if there was anything I could do to help this year.
But my mother didn't even let me in, and told me not to cause trouble.
He said that he had already asked someone to help him and there was no need for me to fiddle around.
Huh, you don't need to think about it to know that the queen mother invited Su Jinxiu.
She must have known that the emperor's uncle would also be attending the vegetarian banquet.
I rushed to the emperor's uncle to flatter him, but I hate that my mother was deceived by her."
Lin Zhaozhao rolled his eyes and had an idea.
"The Queen Mother is now confused by Su Jinxiu, and she may have forgotten that the princess is her biological daughter.
If this continues, I am afraid that the princess will not be able to see the Queen Mother in the future.
I have an idea here, would you like to hear it, sir?"
Xiao Ning'an thought about it and motioned to Lin Zhaozhao to come over.
"What is it? Who will listen..."
Lin Zhaozhao whispered to Xiao Ning'an, but Xiao Ning'an was a little reluctant at first.
"No, what if I hurt my mother?"
Lin Zhaozhao raised his eyebrows, smiled, and patted Xiao Ning'an on the shoulder.
"Are the shadow guards next to the princess the queen mother vegetarian?
Besides, isn’t there still a regent here?
Don't worry, nothing will happen.
Only in this way can the princess ask the Queen Mother to see clearly.
Who is her flesh and blood, and who is the one who truly cares about her?"
Xiao Ning'an also had some thoughts after hearing what Lin Zhaozhao said.
He nodded and agreed.
"okay, I get it!"
After Xiao Ning'an returned to the palace, he found his confidant eunuch.
In this way, the explanation was given.
The eunuch nodded, took the order and left.
But he was not in a hurry to do something for Xiao Ning'an, but turned around and went to the imperial study room.
Xu Yingying is also in the imperial study room, helping Xiao Xiguang polish his ink.
The eunuch did not shy away and informed Xiao Xiguang exactly what Xiao Ning'an said.
After Xiao Xiguang heard this, he couldn't help but curled his lips sarcastically.
"You said that Ning'an wanted to find someone to scare the queen mother.
Then, she stepped forward to save the queen mother.
In this way, can we gain the Queen Mother’s concern?”
The eunuch nodded: "This is what the princess said when I returned to the emperor.
I also specifically told you not to hurt the Queen Mother."
Xu Yingying stopped, looked at Xiao Xiguang and smiled.
"Ning'an is young after all, and he behaves so childishly.
I'm afraid that things will get serious and cause trouble to the emperor."
Xiao Xiguang held Xu Yingying's hand and pulled her to sit beside him.
"Concubine Xian is the best, no matter what.
The first thing that comes to mind is me.
However, I do think this is an opportunity."
Xu Yingying looked at him sideways with a curious look on her face.
"I don't understand the emperor's words."
What Xiao Xiguang likes is Xu Yingying, she is smart when she should be smart.
He should be confused, but he is also very confused.
"I would like to remind you that the current leader of the capital guard is a member of the regent."
Xu Yingying also understood, took Xiao Xiguang's hand and put it to his ear.
"The emperor wants to take advantage of this opportunity.
Replace people with your own people."
Xiao Xiguang nodded and gritted his teeth.
"I am surrounded by the regent's people, and I can't feel at ease all the time.
That's why I said, this is an opportunity.
If it was the queen mother, she was injured under their noses.
I, to punish him for neglecting his duties, it is justifiable to dismiss him from his post.
Go and help the princess find some people.
Remember, don’t hurt the Queen Mother’s life.”
The eunuch understood what Xiao Xiguang meant, nodded and left immediately.
After the eunuch left, they were the only two people left in the imperial study.
Xu Yingying coquettishly hugged Xiao Xiguang's neck.
"The Emperor has dismissed that person from his post. Is there a suitable candidate?"
Xiao Xiguang frowned and pinched Xu Yingying's nose.
“There are a few candidates, but we still have to test them out.
You also know that over the years, the emperor has taken a very close look at the people around me.
I can't train my own manpower, and now I have these people around me.
They were all cultivated during the time when the emperor's uncle disappeared.
The foundation is still shallow, and I can’t fully trust you.”
Xu Yingying leaned against Xiao Xiguang's ear and said softly.
"I have a brother who works in the guard army..."
