Chapter 286: Treason
The reason why Xie Xunfeng said this was because he saw that Xiao Yiran had been brainwashed.
At this time, Xiao Yiran was already irrational.
If he were talking to Xiao Yiran.
It just adds to the quarrel.
And it is not appropriate for Xie Xunfeng to fall out with the Queen Mother right now.
Since they are going to use me anyway, it's okay to let them use me as long as I know about it.
Moreover, in this way, the Queen Mother will also feel that there is still room for Xiao to be used.
At least in order to use Xiao Yiran
This is what Xie Xunfeng wants!
After all, it would be best to use the Queen Mother to protect Xiao Yiran at this time...
Seeing Xie Xunfeng agreed so readily, Xiao Yiran looked at him in surprise and said, "You agree now?"
Xie Xunfeng said to Xiao Yiran, "I am willing to respect any decision you make, but I will also remain skeptical... I won't make things difficult for you..."
Xie Xunfeng's words fully demonstrated his position and his love for Xiao Yiran.
Xiao Yiran was also a smart person. He nodded to Xie Xunfeng and said, "Okay... I believe you too. If the Queen Mother is fine, you will definitely believe her..."
Xie Xunfeng smiled and nodded at Xiao Yiran.
Xiao Yiran said to Xie Xunfeng, "Then go to court... don't delay it."
Xie Xunfeng smiled at Xiao Yiran and pulled her out of the carriage.
Then he went to the palace.
At this time, many civil and military officials were already waiting outside the hall.
Many civil and military officials were looking at Xie Xunfeng.
"Is this the famous Xie Hanzi? He doesn't look stupid..."
"Master Li, it's not that easy to identify a fool. He can be seen at a glance..."
"Master Zhang, that's true... But I have heard a lot of rumors about this fool Xie in the Great Zhou... He doesn't look like a fool."
"Hey, isn't this just a rumor? Actually, everyone with a discerning eye knows it. He is just a puppet... The person who really holds power was dismissed by another emperor..."
"Today this fool is going to be in trouble..."
"Yes, Your Majesty has been dragging on dealing with that matter, not dealing with it, isn't it just to wait for this fool to come back..."
…
Xie Xunfeng listened to the rumors and ignored them.
Instead, he held his head high and stood to one side with a dignified manner.
It seemed as if these things were not about Xie Xunfeng.
Seeing this, the fourth prince Xiao Wenqin walked to the side of Xie Xunfeng.
"Thank you, Proton. How was your rest..."
After seeing Xiao Wenqin, Xie Xunfeng smiled faintly and said, "You had a good rest... But, it doesn't seem wise for the Fourth Prince to come and talk to me at this critical moment..."
After saying that, Xie Xunfeng looked at the group of people who were pointing at them and said.
Xiao Wenqin saw Xie Xunfeng and said, "Xie Jizi, it's too formal to say this... No matter if I approach you or not... we are bound together . Have you heard some rumors inside and outside the imperial city?"
Xie Xunfeng said to Xiao Wenqin, "What rumor?"
"That is, you are our puppet, and Master Yan and I are in the same group..." Xiao Wenqin said with a smile.
Without waiting for Xie Xunfeng to answer, Xiao Wenqin said to Xie Xunfeng, "Actually, if this is not a rumor, then listen carefully..."
Xie Xunfeng smiled and nodded and said, "Haha, Fourth Prince, aren't you afraid of being bullied along with us?"
The fourth prince Xiao Wenqin raised his eyebrows, and then said to Xie Xunfeng, "I have actually been bullied since I was a child. Now I have a companion, which is not bad..."
Just as the two were chatting and laughing, a sound was heard in the hall.
"Go to court! All officials enter the palace!"
After hearing the eunuch's words, everyone entered the hall.
There are many new faces in the court.
Just as Xie Xunfeng was looking around, he discovered that among the princes' queue, there was a young man of about fifteen or sixteen years old.
This young man should be the eleventh prince.
The Eleventh Prince saw Xie Xunfeng sizing him up and their eyes met.
He showed a bright smile and nodded to Xie Xunfeng.
Xie Xunfeng also responded with a smile.
I thought to myself, another smiling tiger.
And it was beyond Xie Xunfeng's expectations.
Next to the emperor's dragon throne, there is also a phoenix chair.
After a while, the emperor came out holding Meng Feng's arm.
He actually brought the imperial concubine with him to court.
This is still truly unheard of.
It seems that what they said about being the only one favored by God is true.
After they sat down in their seats.
Xiao Shentian sat in his seat and watched the civil and military officials salute.
Xiao Shentian waved his hand and said, "Gentlemen, please stand up!"
After hearing Xiao Shentian's words, all the officials stood up.
After Xiao Shentian looked around, his gaze stopped on the fourth prince Xiao Wenqin.
" Old Four , you've been traveling all the way this time. You must have worked hard..."
Xie Xunfeng and the fourth prince Xiao Wenqin looked at each other and thought to themselves that they should come...
Xiao Wenqin stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your understanding, father! I should work harder... This trip was very successful. If the people of the Great Zhou had not broken the agreement, then it would have been perfect..."
In fact, after Xiao Wenqin returned to the palace yesterday, he thought that the emperor would receive him.
But that didn’t happen. Xiao Wenqin just stayed in his palace for the whole night.
Although I didn't see the emperor, I was aware of what was going to happen today.
Xiao Wenqin also understood something.
So, just speak directly.
After hearing what Xiao Wenqin said.
Before Xiao Shentian could speak, an old man walked out from the side.
"Fourth Prince, you are really rude... Can't you tell that His Majesty is speaking harshly? How dare you say that... Don't you know how the people of the Great Zhou would breach the contract ?"
After the old man came out, he pointed at Xiao Wenqin with a haughty expression and said.
Xiao Wenqin glanced at the old man.
The old man's name is Zhang Renyi.
He was previously the Governor-General of Huaixi.
He is also the adoptive father of Meng Fengfei, Concubine Feng.
Now that the Queen's family has been abolished, Meng Fengfei has been re-enthroned.
Although she was a concubine, everyone knew her clearly.
If it weren't for the etiquette, the emperor would have wanted to directly enthrone Concubine Feng as the queen.
It is said among the people that if one person succeeds, all the family members will benefit.
The Governor of Huaixi had placed his bets on Meng Fengfei early on.
After Meng Fengfei was enthroned, he asked the emperor to summon Zhang Renyi into the palace immediately and give him an important position in the cabinet.
After hearing what Zhang Renyi said, Xiao Wenqin held his hands in front of Zhang Renyi and said, "According to what Master Zhang meant... this matter is up to us?"
"Isn't it?"
Zhang Renyi snorted coldly, then cupped his hands and said to Xiao Shentian, "Your Majesty, I want to impeach the fourth prince Xiao Wenqin and the hostage Xie Xunfeng. The two of them formed a clique for personal gain! They sold out the interests of the country to avenge their personal grudges! This is why the relationship between the two countries has become so tense! They should be charged with treason!"
