The prince is shameless

In the early morning of the next day, Wen Xing and Xie Yi rushed to Mingyuan Palace before morning time.

On the way, the two of them coincidentally did not bring up what happened last night, keeping themselves in order like the most ordinary monarchs and ministers.

In Mingyuan Palace, Emperor Anlong sat solemnly on the main seat, not angry but majestic.

Wen Xing knelt straight in the middle, bowed his head in silence.

Emperor An Long said slowly: "Did Xiao Liu tell you everything last night?"

"Yes." Wen Xing replied obediently, "I just wonder if Your Majesty needs me to continue looking for other evidence?"

Emperor Anlong: "No need. Since your elder brother is the witness, I will believe you once."

While speaking, Emperor An Long glanced at Xie Yi who was kneeling beside him.

After all, Xie Yi was Emperor Anlong's most important and favorite prince. He was dissatisfied that Xie Yi fell in love with a man absurdly, but he also didn't want to see Xie Yi suffer because of this matter, so he had no intention of really executing Wen. OK.

And this questionable letter gave him a good excuse.

But that doesn't mean he ignores the hidden dangers.

An Longdi paused, and then asked: "I just don't know what Wen Qing thinks about this private letter?"

Wen Xing tightened his right hand, but his face remained indifferent, and said: "My minister Wen Xing thanked His Majesty for his great kindness. I just don't know what Your Majesty means by this?"

"I don't believe you really can't see it." Emperor An Long snorted softly, but still changed to a more clear way of asking. "Don't your elder brother and the Yunwu tribe have the ability to predict things like a god?"

As soon as the words fell, Wen Xing knew that Emperor Anlong really began to suspect that Wen Yu had colluded with foreigners.

He frowned, as if he had just realized that something was wrong with the time, and gasped in a "hissy" breath.

"This... This minister really doesn't know, everything is up to His Majesty to make decisions."

He picked up the most common words with trepidation.

Emperor An Long did not comment on this, but asked Xie Yi's opinion.

Xie Yi put on an appearance of worrying about the country and the people, and said: "My minister believes that the most urgent thing is to prevent the Yunwu tribe from attacking."

"Now there is only one general on the southern border. If he is dealt with at this juncture, it will inevitably shake the morale of the army. The gain is not worth the loss. Why don't you order him to resist foreign enemies first, and at the same time select and send a new general to the border as soon as possible in today's court."

"If General Huaihua is really collaborating with the enemy and treason, there is still time to stop it when he rushes to the border tomorrow. If General Huaihua has not done such a thing, he can temporarily resist it."

What Xie Yi said is also the best way so far.

After a little thought, Emperor An Long agreed to Xie Yi's statement, waved the two of them down, and prepared for the next court meeting.

It's just that no one expected that at this court meeting, just after Emperor Anlong ordered people to read the battle report, Xie Lian came out without thinking.

The person Emperor Anlong originally liked was Xu Yi, who had repelled the Yunwu tribe last time. It just so happened that Xu Yi had recently contracted an illness, and this morning he handed over his notice for leave.

For a while, it seemed that only Xie Lian was the best choice.

In desperation, Emperor An Long agreed to his request and ordered him to pack up and set off tomorrow.

After that, after the rest of the ministers handed over some unimportant memorials, Emperor Anlong announced that Wen was the adopted son of the Wen family, and he was not aware of Wen's treason, so he was released without charge——

Even the half-month ban was saved.

However, unexpectedly, except for a few senior ministers who questioned a little, this incident did not cause any splash at all.

No one in the prime minister's party, who was most at odds with the prince on weekdays, voiced any doubts, as if they had expected this matter long ago.

After the court meeting, Xie Yi told Wen Xing about this matter, and Wen Xing secretly kept an eye on it.

Is the prime minister's party?

He suddenly remembered that Fang Liang seemed to be a member of the prime minister's party.

Wen Xing thought about it carefully, but didn't continue to delve into it, because he still has a more important matter at present——

He wants to apply to Emperor Anlong for release.

It is reckless to ask for release just after being acquitted and released, but Wen Xing couldn't care less.

In order to leave without Xie Yi noticing, Wen Xing specially picked a Xie Yi to go find Emperor An Long during the time when Xie Lian was seeing him off, and at the same time took the letter that the eldest princess gave him back then.

In the imperial study room, Wen Xing knelt in front of the table nervously, fearing that this move would annoy Emperor Anlong.

Emperor An Long read the contents of the letter carefully, and confirmed again and again that this was his eldest daughter's handwriting.

There was a heavy atmosphere in the imperial study room.

Wen Xing didn't know how long he knelt, and finally waited for Emperor Anlong to speak.

"Does Yi'er know about this?"

As always, he was indifferent, making people unable to hear his emotions.

Wen Xing squeezed his palms, and said: "I don't know. I want to request release in advance because of some private matters... I don't intend to let His Royal Highness notice. I know that this move is too reckless, but I do have difficulties. I hope His Majesty will show mercy." .”

Emperor Anlong understood, and put the eldest princess's handwritten letter before the case: "What are your difficulties?"

Wen Xing bit his lip, looking embarrassed.

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty... I can't say anything."

Wen Xing didn't know that Xie Yi had already had a showdown with Emperor Anlong, and he was afraid that if he said it, he would end up being called a slanderous prince.

Emperor An Long replied with a nasal voice, he didn't know whether it was indifferent or something else, but he continued to ask: "When do you plan to leave?"

"If His Majesty is merciful, I plan to leave tomorrow morning." Wen Xing replied truthfully.

Tomorrow it happens to be practiced by Xie Lian, Xie Yi will definitely be there, Wen Xing wants to take advantage of this time to leave secretly.

Emperor An Long continued to ask: "Are you coming back?"

Wen Xing hesitated for a moment, then said, "Maybe come back, or maybe...not come back."

After all, he was still reluctant.

I am not willing to part with this place where I have stayed for more than 40 years.

Emperor An Long didn't ask any more questions, and after pondering for a moment, he agreed to Wen Xing's request.

"Since that's the case, I will fulfill your wish. Starting today, you will be removed from all positions and returned to civilians."

Wen Xing's uneasy heart fell to the ground.He kowtowed firmly to Emperor Anlong, and said respectfully: "Cao Min Wen Xing thanked His Majesty, Long live Your Majesty, Long live, Long live."

Emperor Anlong's eyes revealed a slight smile unexpectedly, he waved his hand and said: "Get up. I have wronged you a while ago, if you are not enough, go to the fulcrum of the House of Internal Affairs, and by the way Just take this month's salary. Besides, if you don't want to use the identity of 'Wen Xing' when you go out, I can arrange a new identity for you."

Wen Xing was overwhelmed by the flattery, and he didn't know why Emperor An Long was not only angry but also pleased.He expressed his thanks again in trepidation, and followed a eunuch beside Emperor Anlong to the House of Internal Affairs to receive his salary, but he still didn't dare to pay another tael.

Immediately afterwards, he took the new identity prepared for him by Emperor An Long, and returned to the East Palace as if in a dream.

In fact, Emperor An Long and Wen Xing had one thing in common on this matter.

They all think that Xie Yi just can't tell the difference between ordinary liking and liking for his lover.

Wen Xing has been by Xie Yi's side since he was a child, so it is inevitable that he will have some affection for him.It's just that Xie Yi has never been in contact with many mundane affairs, so he accidentally took this affection as love.

As long as we separate for a while and give him some space to calm down, he will naturally figure it out.

Wen Xing let out a long breath of foul air, and simply packed his bags.

In order to rush to the border as soon as possible, tomorrow's practice will be held at Chenshi, and Wen Xing must finish all trivial matters before then.

Tang An has been arranged by him to go to Fei Qing's side, and Yun Nian is also waiting for the imperial examination with peace of mind.

There seemed to be no one or anything worth worrying about here.

Wen Xing stuffed the packed simple luggage under the quilt, just as Xie Yi came back at this time.

"Ah Xing, I'm back." Xie Yi stepped into Wen Xing's room, and saw some odds and ends scattered around.

Xie Yi didn't think too much, and asked casually, "Ah Xing, is this packing up?"

Wen Xing tightened his hands, then quickly relaxed, pretending to be calm and smiling, "I planned to tidy up the room on a whim, but I cleaned out a lot of debris."

"Just let the servants do this kind of thing, why bother?"

Xie Yi didn't notice anything wrong, walked to the table and sat down with a sad face.

Wen Xing asked aloud: "Your Highness seems to be troubled, what happened?"

"That kid Xie Lian insists on going to the border to fight." Xie Yi sighed, "I just wanted to persuade him, but he didn't. I really don't know what he's doing for fun."

Wen Xing poured a cup of tea for Xie Yi, smiled and comforted him and said, "The Second Highness has loved military affairs since he was a child, why should His Highness attack the Second Highness like this? Why don't you let the Second Highness have a try, anyway, the Second Highness is not the first Once on the battlefield."

Xie Yi frowned and said, "Gu also knows this truth, but Ah Xing, have you forgotten? Xiao Lian died in a battle with the Yunwu tribe in his previous life."

After Xie Yi's reminder, Wen Xing recalled this incident.

He vaguely remembered that Xie Lian died for his country at the age of 21. Although he is only nineteen now, no one knows whether this life will be premature.

But if Xie Lianruo insisted on going, he really couldn't stop him.What's more, besides Wen Yu and Xu Yi, Xie Lian is the only one who knows something about the Yunwu tribe. We can't let people who might treason or those who are still sick lead the army to fight, right?

The two were relatively speechless, and there was nothing they could do for a while.

After a long while, Xie Yi raised his teacup and drank it down in one gulp, and said helplessly, "Forget it, it's all fate, let's take a step and see."

Wen Xing stroked the warm teacup without answering, and began to think about the possibility of joining the army.

No matter what Xie Lian said, he could be regarded as kind to Wen Xing. If it weren't for Xie Lian, Wen Xing might not have come into contact with "martial arts" in this life, which he once regarded as an extravagant activity.

And whenever there are major military activities, there will always be various conscription orders in various places. It just so happened that Emperor Anlong gave him a new identity, so he can join the army without anyone noticing, keeping an eye on Xie Lian secretly.

After making such a decision, Wen Xing, who was planning to wander around aimlessly, finally found his direction, and started planning his itinerary in his heart.

Xie Yi chatted casually with Wen Xing for a few more words before going back to his room, preparing for tomorrow's practice.

Wen Xing also secretly looked forward to the arrival of tomorrow.
