On the way back, everyone was exhausted after so much trouble, and they spent more time than when they came. Fortunately, they did not encounter any more wind and sand, so we returned to the imperial tomb smoothly.

When I saw the villages and markets here from afar, although I knew that this place was not a long-term place to stay, after experiencing a long journey like torture on the Gobi Desert, the baptism of wind and sand, and the confrontation with the Iron Cavalry King, everyone felt like they had seen an oasis in the desert.

I also breathed a sigh of relief when I heard Qinghan beside me.

Finally returned to a popular place!

When our carriage finally arrived outside the palace, the people here had already knelt all over the ground. Zhang Gongji brought the imperial guards and his subordinates to pick them up. After Pei Yuanhao got off the carriage, he simply said a few words to them and took us into the palace.

I looked back and saw two imperial guards coming forward and lifted Xie Feng, who was still unconscious in another carriage.

It has been so many days since he has not woken up yet.

The medicine used by the old medicine is a little too heavy.

However, I have returned to the imperial tomb, so I can talk about anything, especially when the maid led me to a large bathhouse. When I saw the steaming milky white bath soup and the pink petals floating on it, I almost forgot my surname in an instant. After asking them to retreat, I jumped in happily.

When the warm bath soup poured up to iron the skin that was almost dry and cracked all over my body, I couldn't help but sigh.

So comfortable!

I couldn't help but hum. I was outside for so long, because the water source is precious, so I couldn't take a good bath. Later, although I arrived at that lake, when I thought of the secrets under the lake, I didn't dare to get too close. The dust on my body was stained with mud. I rarely used to be so sloppy in my life. Now that I feel so comfortable, I immediately picked up a towel and rubbed it on my body.

After rubbing off a few pounds of dirt, I felt that people were much more relaxed. In addition, the heat in the bathroom was steaming, and people became a little drowsy. They put their arms on the edge of the bathtub and breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally more comfortable.

I just don’t know what will happen if Miaoyan follows the Iron Cavalry King?

We had been to Wuwei once before. At that time, because of Huang Tianba, Luo Shi built a very exquisite building there and specially introduced the valley water outside the city into the palace to make Huang Tianba live comfortably.

Perhaps it wouldn't be too hard for Miaoyan to go to that place.

When I thought of my daughter, I still couldn't let it go, and I couldn't help but sigh.

Just then, a sound of footsteps came from outside and stopped at the door. A maid stood outside the door and said softly: "Miss Yan."

I hurriedly cheered up: "What's the matter?"

"The emperor asked my servants to come and pass on a letter."

"letter?"

We are in this palace together, and it is only a few steps away from us. We even asked a maid to deliver the message?

I was confused and let the maid come in. She respectfully worshipped a letter into my hands and then retreated. I took it over and saw that it was Chang Qing who came from Xi'an Prefecture.

When I opened it and saw that my mood, which had just relaxed a little, suddenly became tense again.

The beginning of the letter is just a few words such as greetings, which are also very common, but the most important thing is the last sentence of the letter-

The prince’s study was not done.

My hand shook slightly, and the letter paper suddenly fell from my fingers. Fortunately, I woke up quickly, so I quickly picked up the letter paper again and expanded it to take a look.

The water droplets on the fingers were soaked on the letter paper, and the words on it were spread open, but I could still clearly see the words written by Chang Qing's familiar handwriting-

The prince’s study was not done.

Pei Nianshen wanted to join Xishan Academy. Qinghan and I both studied books, but Nan Zhenyi did not agree?

My breath suddenly became heavy.

To be honest, since Pei Yuanhao proposed this matter, I didn't think it could be formed smoothly. After all, the academic style of Xishan Academy is scattered, and what has been promoted before were all remarks against the court. From the incident in Yangzhou that Enke made a fuss, I knew that the students of Xishan Academy were not the students who followed the rules from Jixian Hall. However, the real result still surprised me.

Nan Zhenyi actually didn't even give me and Qinghan's face, nor did he give the emperor any face, so he directly turned the prince out?

I stood up from the bath with a loud noise. The maid outside heard it and hurriedly walked in to serve. When they wiped my body and hair and put on a thin coat, I immediately walked out with the letter. I just met it on the road and washed it, and I was covered in cool coldness.

As soon as he saw me, he immediately said, "I heard that there is news that Nishikawa is coming?"

I didn't say anything, and handed him the letter.

He took it and looked at it, his brows frowned immediately.

But he only read a few lines of words for a long time, as if he was confirming that he was reading it correctly. After a while, he slowly reached out and folded the letter according to the previous crease, and then raised his head to look at me.

I said, "What's going on?"

“…”

"Why did Nan Zhenyi reject the prince?"

He was silent, took a deep breath and said, "This cannot be said to be too strange. We think they have a reason to accept it, so Nan Zhenyi has a reason to refuse."

“…”

"But--"

"After all, the academy is in charge, and our letters really can't decide anything."

He said this very clearly. Indeed, we both have wealth and power, and are Fu Badai's disciples, but compared with Nan Zhenyi, the senior brother of the academy, he really can't be his master.

Qinghan's eyebrows frowned several deep wrinkles and said in a deep voice: "In this case, the emperor may have to consider the matter of going to Xichuan."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "..."

"If Nan Zhenyi agreed to this matter, then when he entered Xichuan, others would have to pay more or less attention to the Xishan Academy, but now, the situation may be a bit complicated."

"This is of course, but I just find it strange now," I took the letter back from him and said slowly: "Nan Zhenyi does have many reasons to reject the prince, but his rejection at this time has already shown the attitude of Xishan Academy, right?"

“…”

"The problem is that the teacher has already entered the palace to teach the prince and is also helping the emperor with advice; Xiao Yusheng, Xiao Wusheng, and Cha Bixing are all following us to do things. Nan Zhenyi cannot know our attitude and position. He asked the second and third leaders in the academy to follow us. Isn't this the same position as us? But why is his attitude changing so much now?"

“…”

"He shouldn't be someone who has changed his attitude so quickly."

Qinghan thought for a while and said, "I think there must be his reason for him to do this."

“What’s the reason?”

"Control conditions."

"What?!"

"He wants to negotiate terms with the emperor."

“…”

This sentence made me feel at once, and Qinghan said in a deep voice: "Over the years, we have been running around, but he and your brother, they have been in Xichuan and never left. When it comes to the position of considering the problem, I think they will stand on Xichuan more firmly than us."

“…That’s right.”

"Nan Zhenyi's attitude was very obvious, but when he was about to reach the most critical moment, he got stuck at the emperor's level. I think he should negotiate terms with the emperor."

I nodded gently: "If you say this, I understand a little."

"But," he looked at me again, and then said, "You're right just now. Nan Zhenyi shouldn't be such a person. If he wants to negotiate terms with the emperor, he shouldn't use this method."

“…”

"That--"

"We can only talk about this matter when we go to Nishikawa and see him."

I let out a soft "um".

Qinghan looked around: "Where is the emperor?"

“It should be ahead.”

"Go over and ask him what he can do to deal with it."

"good."

I turned around and walked forward with him. As I was walking halfway through, I suddenly remembered: "Did you take the medicine today?"

He couldn't help laughing: "You will never forget this. Don't worry, I've been scolded before coming here, and I've been drunk today."

"That's good. How is he?"

"I'm still worried about his daughter, but I'm much better than the previous two days."

"Where is Xie Feng?"

Speaking of this, Qinghan also paused slightly: "I haven't woken up yet."

"None have woken up yet?"

I couldn't help but frown.

I thought of drugging him and letting him fall into a coma to prevent some things that might happen after he was replaced, but I didn't expect that now, I'm shooting myself in the foot.

I whispered, "The medicine he gave was too heavy."

Qinghan glanced at me and said nothing.

We continued to walk forward, and soon we arrived at Pei Yuanhao's study. He had just taken a shower and changed his clothes. There was a large ice tray in the study, which exuded a leisurely coolness. It felt very comfortable as soon as we walked in. I just looked at his deep eyes, as if he was in the scorching sun.

He looked up at us: "You are here."

Qinghan and I nodded, and I walked forward and put the letter back on his table.

He looked down and said, "You guys have all seen it."

"yes."

"Somewhat unexpected," he said, "I thought that with your recommendation, Xishan Academy will definitely accept the prince."
