Return of the Swallow

"Yes, Your Majesty, Master Wu's words are reasonable. I also think that this person cannot be retained. It is not easy for the Emperor to ascend this position, and we cannot leave any hidden dangers that may threaten the stability of the country."

Two people took the lead, and several ministers began to speak freely, but they only had one idea.

They wanted to kill Lian Xiaozhou.

Qin Yining lowered his head and did not interrupt immediately. Although Pang Xiao had just established her status and majesty in front of everyone, Qin Yining knew in her heart that this world would not allow women to interfere in the affairs of the previous dynasty. Pang Xiao cherished her, which was her blessing, but she If you can't go over it, it will make things difficult for Pang Xiao.

There is a limit to human patience, and people can change at any time. At the moment, Pang Xiao loves and protects her. Whatever she does willfully, she is cute and natural in his eyes, but what if one day his feelings fade away? It's not that she doesn't believe Pang Xiao, it's that she has seen through human nature. What she has to do now is to try to make this change come as late as possible.

Pang Xiao allowed his ministers to speak freely, and then looked at Xu Weizhi and Xie Yue, "Where are you two gentlemen?"

Xu Weizhi glanced at Qin Yining who lowered his eyes and said nothing, thought for a moment and said: "I think that keeping this person is indeed a hidden danger. But she has been with the queen since she was a child, and this time she was willing to cooperate with the emperor because of the queen's persuasion. If you kill the donkey, you will be afraid of being criticized, and you will not be at ease mentally."

"Yes." Xie Yue also said, "From what I see, Lian Xiaozhou never thought that she was a princess from the previous dynasty and had settled into her current life. That is to say, the queen was close to her, so she nodded to help out of friendship. If she would If someone is killed, I’m afraid the queen will feel unhappy.”

Pang Xiao looked at Qin Yining, held her hand in his big hand and shook it, and secretly scratched her palm with his fingers.

Qin Yining's originally uneasy mood finally eased a little under Pang Xiao's actions.

When the other ministers saw Pang Xiao acting like this, they also knew that the emperor might not want to kill this person.

"Your Majesty, if you don't want to kill the person, in order to avoid future troubles, you must find a way to keep the person under control to be safe." Mr. Wu had an idea, "The Emperor has just ascended the throne. At the beginning of the new year, he must enrich his harem and not weaken his generals. Then she was brought into the harem and given the title of concubine, so that she could be under the control of the emperor and the queen. After the woman got married, her thoughts would be spent on how to live a good life in the harem. In addition, the emperor was extraordinary and had a noble status. Can a woman resist? In this way, we can not only avoid being charged with the crime of killing a rabbit but also successfully control the person. Wouldn’t it kill two birds with one stone?”

Master Wu stroked his long beard a few times as he spoke, obviously very proud of this idea.

Several counselors around him also nodded in agreement, "We are all trying to recruit more people into the harem.

Isn’t it the same for whoever is being used? As a princess from the previous dynasty, she was worthy of being an emperor, so it was good to be so cheap. "

Pang Xiao looked at everyone with a half-smile but did not express his position.

Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi looked at the queen, who had her head lowered, and then at the emperor's face with hidden anger, and sighed again in their hearts.

The emperor's love for the queen has never changed. Even now that he has ascended the throne, he is still unhappy when the topic of enriching the harem is brought up. They all begin to worry. If there is a person like this in front of them, what will happen when the draft comes at the end of the year?

Xie Yue sighed. It was already instinctive to speculate on the superior's intentions. He immediately intercepted the discussion and asked: "Does the Emperor have an idea?"

Everyone's hearts were agitated and they all slowly became silent.

The emperor said that he came to discuss matters with them, but if the emperor really had his own arrangements and they came to point fingers, they would probably leave a bad impression, not to mention that the current man was a decisive person, so for such an immediate emperor , their awe is always hidden in their hearts.

No matter how much they talk, the final decision comes from the emperor. Why would they take things so seriously when they are innocuous?

With such a change in thinking, everyone stopped talking and calmed down.

Pang Xiao achieved his goal and smiled: "I do have an idea. After investigation, I learned that there has always been one or two people who are in love with this woman. This person is also a disciple of my good friend Mr. Mu. Mr. Mu defended him several times. , we have a life-long friendship with me, so if the former dynasty’s young master is betrothed to a disciple of Mr. Mu, there is no need to worry about anything else. What do you think?”

Everyone was silent for a while.

It seems that the emperor has already thought about this.

Qin Yining raised his head in surprise, "Are you talking about Young Master Fang?"

Hearing the Queen directly address the Emperor as "you", the courtiers couldn't help but secretly smacked their lips, but no one dared to say anything. After all, the Emperor seemed to enjoy calling the Queen such a name.

Pang Xiao nodded, "That's Mr. Fang. So you know about this?"

"Yes. Xiao Zhou has been with me for a long time, so I naturally know some things. It's just that since I went to pick up Xiao Zhou, we were separated from Mr. Fang. At that time, I didn't see Mr. Fang's feelings for Xiao Zhou." Qin Yining He said with some worry, "I'm worried about what I should do if Xiaozhou marries her and the other party is not sincere."

Pang Xiao smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about this. They discovered a while ago that there was someone secretly protecting Zhou Xiaolian. Mu Mu personally took action and arrested the person. Only then did I know that this person had been following Zhou Xiaolian to protect him since he came out from you. . It’s just that he never showed up.”

"Is this happening?" Qin Yining's eyes widened in shock.

"Of course, the reason why I came up with this idea is because I discovered this incident. In the future, the couple will live in seclusion behind the door, with wood, so that the two lovers can finally get married without having to worry about leaking the secret. Wouldn't it be good? Besides," Pang Xiao raised his head and smiled confidently, "Can there be any rumors now that can shake the current situation?"

Having said this, everyone had to admit that what Pang Xiao said was not a lie. With a powerful army in hand and the world's hope, Pang Xiao's empire is really not that easy to shake, not to mention just a few rumors. Who will believe it? If you don’t believe it, it’s better to tell you two things.

Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi now fully understand that the current emperor is arbitrary, but they can't find anything to refute, because what Pang Xiao said is indeed feasible, and the morality that Pang Xiao insists on has always existed. He has not changed just because he became the emperor, which is really comforting to those who follow him. It is better to follow a kind and righteous person than to follow an ungrateful person like Li Qitian.

Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi took the lead and nodded: "Your Majesty, this method is just right."

Master Wu and others also nodded in understanding, no longer daring to talk nonsense just to show off.

Pang Xiao smiled and said: "In that case, I will go back and grant them marriage." Turning to Qin Yining, "You also prepare a generous dowry for her."

Qin Yining was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly, "Okay, leave this matter to me. By the way, for Jiyun and Bingtang's good deeds, why don't you also ask the emperor to send a message and give them a favor?"

Pang Xiao laughed loudly, "Isn't that the third blessing? Well, since you like it, I will give you the decree." As he spoke, his eyes were so gentle that water could drip from his eyes.
