The middle-aged man took the medicine respectfully and said, "I understand, little one."
"Also, go to the East Palace and let the Crown Prince do what you are told."
When the middle-aged man heard Zhao Xuanji's words, he looked troubled.
"how?"
Zhao Xuanji frowned and said, "Is there a problem?"
The middle-aged man said: "The guards in the East Palace have changed a batch. Now the Jin Yiwei is in charge. Moreover, all our hidden informants have been removed. It is difficult to contact the prince's concubine."
Zhao Xuanji said angrily: "Why didn't the Crown Prince contact you about this matter?"
The middle-aged man remained silent.
Zhao Xuanji suddenly laughed.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Zhao Xuanji laughed and said: "Okay, okay, I know that girl has sharp eyes, is ambitious and as timid as a mouse, and is unreliable. Sure enough, it happened."
"First Assistant, calm down."
The middle-aged man said softly: "Do I need to get rid of her?"
"Pig brain!"
Zhao Xuanji said coldly: "If she explains everything to the prince, do you think it is possible for you and your people to come back after you go to the East Palace?"
With a flick of his sleeves, Zhao Xuanji said coldly: "It's going to rain. Mother is going to get married. Since she has made her choice, I hope she won't regret it. Just go and send someone to deal with her family."
The look of embarrassment on the middle-aged man's face is even heavier.
"what happened again!?"
Zhao Xuanji just felt that everything was not going well these days, and he was filled with unknown anger and scolded, "Speak directly if you have something to say, don't hesitate!"
The middle-aged man then said bravely: "The father of the crown prince, Zhao Heshan, was summoned to the capital by a transfer order from the East Palace a few days ago. Now, I am afraid that he will soon arrive in the capital."
Zhao Xuanji angrily yelled: "Why didn't you tell such important news earlier!?"
The middle-aged man immediately knelt down and said in fear: "This matter is an order issued by the East Palace directly through the East Factory. The Jin Yiwei personally went to announce it and escorted it all the way. The villain is incompetent and really didn't notice it in advance. Please punish the chief assistant."
Zhao Xuanji stared at the middle-aged man coldly and said coldly: "You have followed me for many years and know my temper. This time, I will spare you first, and then next time..."
The middle-aged man trembled and said: "There will be no next time for me."
"very good."
Zhao Xuanji's tone was still indifferent, and he waved his hand and said: "Go down and keep an eye on Zhao Heshan. As soon as he arrives in the capital, find an opportunity to take action."
"I'm sorry..."
After the middle-aged man left, Zhao Xuanji stood in the study, facing the window and watching the heavy snow falling outside, and suddenly felt tired.
This kind of fatigue seeping into my bones has not appeared for many years.
He looked down at his hands, which were covered with wrinkles and were no longer young.
The corner of Zhao Xuanji's mouth twitched and he murmured: "My time is running out..."
Thinking of this, Zhao Xuanji turned around, sat down at the desk, and pulled out a piece of letter paper.
He frowned and looked at the blank letter. After a moment, he took a deep breath and wrote: "Brother Zai Dao, the Prime Minister of Liao, sees the letter as if it were his face..."
...
At this moment, on the outskirts of Beijing.
"Green ants' newly fermented wine, small red clay stove, it's snowing in the evening, can you have a drink?"
Li Chen picked up the water glass, smiled at Su Jinpa and said: "Replace wine with tea to pay homage to the beauty."
Su Jinpa was carefully recalling the exquisite artistic conception in the poem Li Chen mentioned casually, but it was completely destroyed by the three words "Jingmei Ren".
"His Royal Highness is truly the most talented in the world, but his dissolute temper is unacceptable." Su Jinpa said angrily.
Li Chen laughed and said: "The talents of Jinpa are not weaker than mine."
