Chapter 223: Negligence, something big is going to happen
The emperor may not believe what others say, but there is no need for Xuanbao to lie. Besides, she is the junior uncle of the national master. He has received news from the secret guards. Even the sacred monks of Tianlong Temple treat the little baby differently.
Xuan Bao was not an ordinary little baby. He was an expert in Xuan Sect who would never miss a target. After having this understanding in his heart, the emperor began to pay attention to her so-called dream.
"Yao'er is ten years old now. You said in your dream that he will inherit the throne at the age of twenty-five, so I still have fifteen years to live."
"In my dream, my uncle died a violent death."
Hearing this, the emperor was not surprised. He was not yet thirty years old. If he was only in his early forties fifteen years later, it was unlikely that he would die.
"You mean that Yao'er will rebel and usurp the throne?"
I have to say that anyone who can be an emperor is quite sensitive to this kind of thing. After all, he himself was a swordsman back then and had to go through intrigues and intrigues to get to this position.
"In my dream, all the relatives of the Hou family, including the Yongchang Prince's maternal grandfather's family, as well as the second and third princes, were brutally murdered, and even the Queen Mother's aunt was furious to death." Xuan Bao said sadly.
In fact, it was not what she saw in her dream. Everything Xuan Bao said was what Xiao Mingzhu said that day, but she felt inexplicably heavy after hearing it.
All kinds of incredible things happened during these days, which made Xuan Bao feel that if he didn't intervene, it was very likely that what Xiao Mingzhu said would come true.
At first the emperor was half-convinced, but when he heard Xuanbao say that both the Marquis's Mansion and the Wang's Mansion were in trouble, he knew a lot about the affairs of the court and the two families, and after careful consideration, he thought it was very possible.
"After all, just a dream can't explain anything. Besides, the eldest prince is not very young now, but the emperor still needs to be careful. There is no need to worry about the prince's affairs. You should pay more attention. There is no need for the people of the world to make careful choices."
The emperor nodded repeatedly and looked at Xuan Bao with admiration. But he didn't know that a certain little kid had finally finished speaking. He was complaining that his old Taoist master's words were too difficult to pronounce and she was so tired from repeating them.
"Okay, little stupid treasure, I can save the Ding'an Marquis Mansion and the Yongchang Prince's Mansion, and I can also save your brother Shun, so what's wrong with you telling me a few words?" the old Taoist master said angrily.
"Okay, thank you for reminding me, uncle will be careful." The emperor said seriously.
Xuan Bao understood. He was not talking to the emperor but his uncle. He was talking to him from the perspective of a relative. In this case, it was just a private chat, and it had nothing to do with the country. As expected, it was comfortable to talk to smart people.
"You're welcome, uncle." After saying that, Xuan Bao jumped down from the chair, "Now that I've entered the palace, I have to pay my respects to the Queen Mother."
"Well, she talks about you every day."
"It will get late after I say hello. Uncle, I will go to the palace the day after tomorrow. I will take my fifth uncle with me to visit Yi Le Palace."
"Xuanbao, tell uncle, is there something wrong with Yi Le Palace?"
"It's hard to say right now, uncle. I'll tell you after I've seen it."
The emperor pondered for a while and said: "You are not greedy for power, but you will be rewarded for your merits. Let's talk about it when the time comes."
"Okay, then I'll thank uncle first."
"I still have a lot of things to deal with. Now let Laifu take you to the Queen Mother's Palace. If there is a meal there, just finish the meal and let him take you back to the palace later."
Xuan Bao said respectfully: "Yes, Xuan Bao excuses himself."
Laifu led Xuanbao out of the imperial study. He was convinced from the bottom of his heart. The little county master managed to catch the emperor's psychology with all his strength. This time, Wang Guifei, mother and son, hit the iron wall.
After meeting the Queen Mother's aunt, Xuan Bao didn't say much. He only said that the emperor had summoned him to the palace to talk about the affairs of Yi Le Palace, and he also agreed to go to the palace the next day to find out.
The Queen Mother indeed persuaded Xuan Bao to stay for dinner, but she was worried that there were a lot of things to do in the Hou Mansion and declined.
When the carriage returned to the gate of the Marquis' Mansion, they could see Aunt Ying, Aunt Sun, her maid Xia Yu, and Awang, the servant next to her second brother, all crowded at the gate and waiting eagerly.
Xuan Bao felt warm in his heart and couldn't help but smile. Eunuch Laifu nodded secretly. Behind the Lord of Baoning County was the entire Ding'an Marquis Mansion.
After seeing off Eunuch Laifu, Xuanbao crossed the threshold surrounded by a group of people.
The little baby did not ignore the weird look on Awang's face when he stopped talking. Speaking of which, he was not only the second brother's personal servant, but also knew that there was a lot going on like the several personal maids around her.
"Aunt Sun and Aunt Ying, please go back and report to your grandmother and mother that I have returned home. I have nothing to do but went to the palace to chat with the Queen Mother." Xuan Bao made an excuse, "I'll go back first.
Go back and change clothes and rest. If you are too tired, go and say hello early tomorrow morning. Please forgive me, grandma and mother."
"That's right, that's right. As long as the county master is fine, it's fine." Aunt Ying agreed, "I'll go back and report to the county master. If you're too tired, it's the same as saying hello tomorrow."
Grandma Sun also wisely said: "I will go back and talk to the old lady to reassure her. The county master's health is very important."
After dismissing them both, Xuanbao glanced at Awang, who squeezed forward and lowered his voice: "Second Young Master asked the county master to go to his place as soon as possible when he comes back."
"Did something happen?" Xuan Bao asked.
Awang's face was full of anxiety: "I don't know very well, but the second young master said that Xiao Youfeng is about to die. I'm afraid he can't stop him from jumping over the wall."
Xuan Bao stopped and thought for a moment, and suddenly her eyes widened. It was time to fight, because she had been careless and careless.
There is more than one Xiao Youduo in the Xiao family. Except for the so-called eldest brother, the second brother, who should not have any ideas about him, not to mention the third brother in Yongchang Palace, the second brother, the fourth brother, and the fifth brother are all in danger at the moment.
"Awang, go find the second brother and ask him to go to the yard of the fourth and fifth brothers immediately. I will wait for him there." Xuan Bao said decisively.
Time is tight, and the fourth brother and the fifth brother live together, and the second brother only needs to get there. More importantly, it is much easier to get someone to obey than to explain to two people who know little about it.
Awang turned around and walked away quickly, and Xuanbao ducked into the forest beside the road. Just as Dongxue and Xia Yu were about to ask, they saw her looking serious and mumbling something.
Suddenly, the wind started blowing on the ground, and there were gusty winds. The county leader was summoning ghosts. Xia Yu stood aside knowingly and stared attentively, not daring to make any sound.
"Lao Zhou." Xuan Bao finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw a familiar face appear.
"County Lord, you are looking for me."
"If you have something to do, stop gossiping."
"What are your orders?"
"Go to the second brother quickly, protect him all the way, ensure his safety, and send him to the fourth and fifth brothers to meet me."
"Okay." Lao Zhou agreed readily.
Xuan Bao stopped Lao Zhou who was about to turn around: "Be careful. If you encounter someone you can't handle, don't fight. Come back and report the news."
