Chapter 562 The back house wives and concubines are reborn (10)
Xu Zifan went to the side hall and sat down with the emperor, and talked about leaving Beijing to find exercises.
"The ancestral home of Liu's family is in Linyang Mansion, and the son of the son pretends to be a businessman and went there secretly. The first thing to check was the ancestral house of the Liu family. However, nothing was found. Ding He's married daughter, and the belongings that have flowed out of Liu's house over the years."
The emperor nodded in satisfaction, "Lao Liu, you have worked hard. You have thought very well, yes, you have never heard anything in the past three years, even the Liu family thought you were looking for something for the Ministry of Industry."
Xu Zifan reproached himself: "My father is too rewarding. In order not to let the news go, I can only act very carefully, so that the speed of investigation is very slow. Many members of the Liu family are not in Linyang Mansion, and the married daughter is not on the genealogy. It’s not easy to check their whereabouts. For three years now, the sons and ministers have not been able to complete the investigation of the Liu clan and have failed to collect all the fragments. They really have the trust of their father."
"Hey, you have done a good job, and I am very satisfied. The past three years have allowed you to rush for this matter, and you cannot return home. I am afraid that you will blame me."
"How come? It's an honor for my son to be able to do things for my father."
"Okay, worthy of my best son." The emperor patted Xu Zifan on the shoulder and laughed. The forced palace incident made him very angry, and he was very disappointed with his first five sons. Now that he sees Xu Zifan's pure filial piety and his work is safe, his heart is very ironed, and the anger has finally disappeared.
The emperor thought of the purpose of summoning Xu Zifan back to Beijing, and sighed with a smile: "Oh, your brothers thought that my body was declining and my heart was growing. Only when I saw you did I feel a little relieved. Sixth, there is still rebellion in the court. The remnants of the party, I want to take this opportunity to wipe them all out and clear the court. You must help me when you come back this time so that this flourishing age will continue."
Xu Zifan got up and saluted, "Even if the emperor father ordered, the children will do everything they can to help the emperor father. The brothers are indeed wrong this time, and I hope the emperor father will calm down and take care of his body. The seventh and eighth brothers are pure and filial, and Xiao Jiu also Innocent and cute, don’t be sad, father, your health is the blessing of all people."
The emperor thought of the more and more sensible Lao Qi, Lao Ba, and Xiao Jiu who was just one year old, his expression softened a lot, and he lifted Xu Zifan up with his own hands and smiled: "I'm fine, don't worry."
The two performed a series of filial piety from father to son before the emperor informed Xu Zifan of his plan. Xu Zifan came back to imprison the country. It was obvious that the emperor was weak and wanted to pass the throne to Xu Zifan, but in fact it was to lead the snake out of the cave to eliminate all the families and officials who were standing in the battle.
This is equivalent to a major cleansing. The officials in the DPRK and China who have problems with character and style will be dismissed. If the emperor would not do it in peacetime, after all, the actions were too big and too much involved. But the emperor has now cultivated to the second level of Qi training. He is strong and strong, as if he has returned to the most powerful and standing year. There is still a long time to govern the country. Naturally, he must clean up the court within his control. A more prosperous age.
As long as the emperor thought of how future generations would mention how he would eulogize his merits and how the Shiji would record his achievements, he seemed to be infused with endless vitality and couldn't wait to show his fists.
In this case, Xu Zifan only needs to be a mascot and a decoration for the prison. Although he was also considered a target, the emperor had cultivated a group of secret guards in the past three years. When Xu Zifan was a target, he sent four secret guards to protect him, so that he would not be harmed by anyone.
Therefore, Xu Zifan actually only needs to transfer government affairs to the emperor every day. It is a great thing for him to gain prestige in vain without having to work hard, so that he can further stabilize the power. If the emperor really allowed him to supervise the country, he would not like it. Why would the emperor Baiji be jealous? It's better to have no desires and no demands, but he wants to escape into the empty door.
Xu Zifan has been the emperor more than once, facing the embarrassment of the four princes and the fifth princes, he can easily resolve them, and can convey their actions to the emperor without reservation. The restless ministers were all reported to the emperor by him. He also told the emperor truthfully the ministers who had shown good intentions to him several times in private and wanted to help him.
The emperor made a small fire in three days and a big fire in five days. He became more and more satisfied with Xu Zifan, and often left Xu Zifan in the palace to accompany him to play chess and eat together.
In the eyes of people, this is Xu Zifan's succession to the throne. The emperor has relied on him so much. Who would not give him the throne?
After the emperor knew the opinions of his officials, he also specially observed Xu Zifan, and found that he really had no idea about the power of the throne, and finally he was completely relieved of him, and he was very proud-doesn't he still have a good son?
Xu Zifan jumped from the least favored prince to the one who is most likely to succeed. The number of greetings and invitations received by the palace are like snowflakes. The women in the palace were so happy.
The princesses and side concubines attended various banquets, listening to the compliments of the crowd or the indifferences of the fourth and fifth princesses, always smiling. The two people were thinking about the same thing, and they finally waited. Although it was a long time later, the matter became completely different from the previous life, but the result was the same. They were about to enter the palace as their concubines. Their families have all become cautious in their words and deeds under their instructions, looking for every opportunity to make a contribution in front of Xu Zifan.
Li and Liu could not leave the mansion at will, and were anxious in the palace. After hearing that the emperor was seriously ill again, the two finally couldn't sit still. After Xu Zifan returned to the house and entered the study room for a while, the Liu family dressed up to give Xu Zifan soup.
The ingredients in the soup are all nourished by her with plant supernatural powers. They are delicious and nourishing. People who have worked hard for a day will be able to feel a lot more energetic after drinking. It feels particularly obvious. It is a very pleasing soup. Who knows she carries the soup. Was blocked outside the door.
Hu Feng smiled and said, "Aunt Liu, the prince ordered that no one is allowed in the study."
Liu said sympathetically: "Gong Hu, please give this soup to the prince. This is the nourishing soup I have stewed for a day. The prince is too tired these days. I want to help the prince to make up for it."
Hu Feng didn't stretch out his hand. "Aunt Liu should take it back. The prince told me not to disturb. In recent days, the prince is eating in the palace. The chef and the imperial doctor in the imperial kitchen are paying attention to the prince's body. Don't worry, Aunt Liu. "
Liu clan's face was a bit uncontrollable. When he lowered his head, a sullen color flashed in his eyes, and said obediently: "Okay, I'll go back first."
Liu's turned and left, and met Li's within a few steps. Li took Xiyun's hand, saw the soup in her and maid's hands, and laughed mockingly: "The prince is busy? It's really a waste of my sister's thoughts."
Liu clan glanced at her coldly, and left without saying anything, not paying attention to her at all. What is the threat of a traverser who only has pastoral space?
Li's face changed and he snorted, leading Xiyun to the study. When she was about to arrive, she bent down and said softly to Xiyun, "Yunyun, don't you miss your father? Father is in the study room. You can see him when you run in. Father is very hard to deal with government affairs. How about father going to my mother to rest?"
Xiyun lowered her head, turned her eyes round, raised her head and smiled: "Okay, I'm going now!"
"Eh, okay." Li smiled triumphantly, the child is the best bargaining chip. Xiyun entered, can the prince continue to be busy?
Xiyun waited for her to let go, and then rushed into the study. The speed was so fast that Li didn't even see how she got in, and Hu Feng didn't stop it at all.
Xiyun entered the room and closed the door again, and Li hurried to catch up in three steps and two steps, but saw Hu Feng flick the dust to block her in front of her.
"Auntie Li, the prince ordered not to disturb, it's getting late, please go back."
Li smiled calmly: "Hu Gonggong, Yunyun is inside. This child is still young, and I don't know if it will disturb the prince. I just brought her to please the prince. Look, or I will go in and talk to the prince. Please Ann send Yunyun back to Qixiayuan, right?"
Hu Feng happily said: "The prince ordered that the three little masters can find the prince at any time, and everyone else is not allowed to disturb. The same is true for the princess when he comes. Please come back."
The princess can't enter when she comes, where does a concubine come in? Li looked at the door of the study, his face changed again. Why is Xiyun still not coming out? Didn't you agree to persuade Xu Zifan to go to her? Why is this kid so unreliable?
Li waited for a long time, Hu Feng ignored it, as long as she didn't go in. In the end, Li couldn't hold back his face and left unhappily in the sight of the crowd.
The princess and side concubine laughed happily when they heard about it. Xu Zifan had several sons in his last life when he became the throne. In this life, at least for now, only their two sons are the only ones who have seized the opportunity. The two of them sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, only waiting for their son to grow up and succeed in seizing the progeny.
The affairs of the four women were all dismissed before Xu Zifan was in front of him. Xu Zifan went back to the house every day to play with the three children and brought them various snacks from Beijing. The three children were very happy.
When Li wanted to take advantage of Xiyun, Xiyun carefully said to Xu Zifan: "Father, can I... not see her?"
Xu Zifan asked, "What's the matter? Why don't you want to meet?"
Xiyun frowned, "I feel... she doesn't like me."
An'er said next to him: "Father, I don't see either. She doesn't let me play with my brother, so I can please my father."
Cheng'er still has some memories of the princess, and said lonely: "Father, in fact, I don't want to see the mother and concubine. What she said is not right. She even forced me to recite poetry and poetry. I used Hu Feng to hide. Alas, I don't want to be like this, but I really don't like it. Father, when shall we leave?"
"How come it will take half a year?" Xu Zifan guessed that this time the matter was too small and could not be finished in a short time. He thought about it and said, "Let's go to the palace with me in the future. If you are free, Father Wang will take you to the street in disguise."
The three children immediately laughed and clapped their hands happily, "Okay, okay! Father, you are the best!"
Xu Zifan smiled, and after sending them away, he called Hu Feng to ask: "How is the investigation? How is the Fuzhong these three years?"
Hu Feng hesitated and said, "Master, don't be angry. Several masters in the palace have acted in the past three years, but the others are fine, only the Liu family..."
"What happened to her?"
"She, she often went out privately for the past six months, and it seems, seems to be close to the second prince."
