“The Empress Dowager asked you to ask?” Xie Xian did not lie in front of the real person and also asked bluntly.

Pan Shuo nodded silently, then shook his head. The Empress Dowager had only asked her to scout around the various aristocratic families, but she had not specifically asked him to ask Xie Xian.

“It’s me. I want to know your opinion.”As she spoke, she sighed.” The Empress Dowager naturally hopes that the Emperor will not do anything evil. Do what you should do. In the Empress Dowager’s eyes, the Emperor, the Empress, and the Crown Prince are all very good. Once the crown prince was changed, wouldn’t it be a waste?”

“The Empress Dowager hopes that the family will be peaceful and everything will prosper. If the royal family is in chaos, it won’t just be the family.”

Xie Xian nodded.” What the Empress Dowager said makes sense.”

“But 1 think the emperor’s meaning is that even nine bulls can’t pull him back. Yesterday, he even told me in private to get closer to the Xin ‘an King. The Xin’ an King is also very close to me. 1 see that this child’s temperament doesn’t take after Noble Consort Liu in the slightest, but rather resembles the Emperor.”

The courtyard where Xie Xian lived was currently undergoing renovation, and he himself was staying in Fufeng Pavilion for a short period of time. Today, he would be hosting Pan Shuo in Fufeng Pavilion.

Not long after, Ming Yue came in to ask for instructions. It was just that there was not enough wood and the manpower was sent away by Xie San Ye.

Xie Xian then called for the steward to get some silver, and then transferred some manpower from other places.

After Ming Yue left, Pan Shuo asked curiously,””What are you doing?” No one would be as troubled as her when they married a bride. She had expanded the courtyard by half and specially spent a lot of money to buy all kinds of furniture made of pear wood and all kinds of flowers.

Xie Xian ignored him. Fie was afraid that he could not give Xiao Baoxin the best.

Unfortunately, the wedding was imminent and there was no more time to study her preferences. They were married in March, but they were summoned into the palace by Princess Xuancheng just after Yuan Zheng passed. It was an extravagant hope to exchange letters. This longing could only be slightly alleviated by the efforts they made in their future home.

He didn’t answer Pan Shuo’s question, instead, he directly brought the topic back to Pan Shuo’s question.

“I don’t think the Crown Prince has the talent to be a ruler.”

Pan Shuo’s mouth was shocked into an egg shape, Xie Xian was standing at the side.

“You support Xin ‘an King?”

After a long while, Xie Xian spoke again. The smoke from the warm tea stove curled up, covering his face and making it difficult to see clearly.

“No matter who wins or loses in the end, it will cause a huge shock to the court. The Emperor’s desire to change the Crown Prince is so strong that this is inevitable. The longer this process takes, the greater the damage. What we can do is to let the entire cycle pass quickly so that the aftershocks will be smaller.”

Pan Shuo was stunned, but he wasn’t stupid.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been so proud in front of Empress Dowager Pan and made her so happy that she was even closer to him than her own son.

He was also a person who wanted to do practical things. However, he had a dull personality and was impulsive. Sometimes, he liked to be loyal to others, but he was not a heartless person.

Xie Xian had said this clearly to him.

In fact, it didn’t matter who was the Crown Prince to Pan Shuo. Empress Dowager Pan was still around, and the Pan family was full of glory. Once Empress Dowager Pan was gone, they wouldn’t be able to live for many years.

However, he was currently serving Emperor Yu Heng, so he naturally had to do whatever Emperor Yu Heng said.

Moreover, he had singled him out and wanted him to get close to the Xin ‘an Prince. This was clearly because he liked him. How could he disappoint the Emperor?

After eating Xie Xian’s reassurance, Pan Shuo became even more determined in his choice.

“I know what to do.”

Xie Xian smiled.” Brother Pan has always been clear-headed. You already know what to do.”

Pan Shuo was enjoying the wine and grinned.””Xuan Hui’s words made me feel good. You all think I’m a fool. Only you can see the essence through appearances! You really should talk to the emperor more. The emperor trusts you the most.”

Xie Xian shook his head with a smile. It was true that he was being ridiculous.

The two of them chatted for about two hours before Pan Shuo left with the empty wine jug. He said that he would leave it to his subordinates to do it, but if he did not keep an eye on it, he would not be confident. He was afraid that he would be fooled into using materials of insufficient quality.

Emperor Yuheng had given him the most important task, so he would definitely have to go over in the future. Judging from the obvious feelings he had now, he couldn’t go less. If he found out that he was cutting corners, he would be the one in trouble.

Not long after Pan Shuo left, Xie Xian was drinking tea alone when he heard footsteps behind him.

He turned around and saw Yang Shao. He was wearing a bamboo hat and a navy blue pleated trousers, and he walked out of the house with a relaxed expression.

Xie Xian stood up and said in astonishment,”Why did Brother Yang come?””

Yang Shao stopped in his tracks and cupped his hands towards Xie Xian, his gaze burning. “I want to borrow something from Brother Xie.”

“What is it?” Xie Xian quickly regained his composure and stretched out his hand to his side, saying,” Brother Yang, please sit. We can chat over tea.”

Yang Shao didn’t move.” Your head.”

Xie Xian was slightly startled, but then he smiled. “If Brother Yang wants it, please take it.”

Yang Shao sighed. He knew that if he couldn’t scare Xie Xian, it would be meaningless. He sat down next to Xie Xian, where Pan Shuo was originally sitting.

“Brother Xie’s courage is outstanding, Brother Yang admires him. Why didn’t you ask me how 1 came in and why 1 sneaked in without calling for help? Are you bold, or do you trust me too much?”

“Naturally I trust Brother Yang.” Xie Xian called someone in to refill the tea set at this time, but when he saw a person sitting inside, he looked back and forth at Yang Shao in a daze. He was clearly standing outside and no one came to visit. When did this person come in?

“Yes, yes, yes, yes.”

With Xie Xian’s instructions, the servants did not dare to be negligent and hurriedly brought over a new set of porcelain.

Yang Shao gulped down two cups of wine like a cow and let out a long breath. “I didn’t lie to Brother Xie, 1 really wanted to borrow Brother Xie’s head. There are some things that I can’t figure out with my brain, so 1 would like to ask Brother Xie for some guidance.”

“It’s just that it’s not convenient to enter the house.”Xie Xian refilled Yang Shao’s cup.

The tea ceremony had its own complete set of operations. The layman would just watch the fun. Even if Yang Shao watched it 8oo times, he would not feel that the taste of the tea had changed. However, the entire process was as smooth as flowing water, dazzling Yang Shao. After watching, he only felt that Xie Xian’s bearing was graceful.

As expected of a young master from an aristocratic family. His demeanor was far from what a vulgar martial artist like him could compare to.

If he was Lil ‘Miss, he would also like this.

“There are only the two of us in the room, Brother Yang can speak freely.”Xie Xian gently raised his teacup and took a sip.

“The Crown Prince’s servant Yin Qing contacted me.”

Xie Xian raised his eyebrows slightly. The Crown Prince’s quick action was within his expectations. It was just that directly extending his hand to the Emperor’s side was really a dangerous move.

He knew that Yin Qing was the son of the Yin family, but his mother had died early and he could not tolerate his stepmother, Lady Fan. When he was young, there were rumors that he had been abused by Lady Fan, and he had even been reprimanded by the Empress.

After that, he was appreciated by the Empress and stayed by the Crown Prince’s side. He was the Crown Prince’s confidant.

This person was extremely talented, but he was extreme and liked to take the unconventional path..
