Before Xiao Juan went out, he did not forget to send someone to notify Yu Weiyi, telling her that he was going to the palace to face the saint, and let her go home by herself today, without waiting for him.

The old emperor is getting older and his physical condition is not as good as before.

Before he finished reviewing today's memorials, he felt tired, put away the red pen, and was helped to lie down on the couch for a while.

When the attendant came in and reported that it was the Prince of Langjun, the old emperor sat up.

Everyone stepped forward to serve the old emperor, changing clothes and washing.

When he packed up and walked out, Xiao Lian had been waiting in the side hall for a while.

"Wei Chen pays respects to the emperor."

The old emperor took the tea cup from the eunuch, took a sip of water to moisten his throat, and then spoke slowly.

"I heard that you arrested a group of scholars today, what's the matter?"

Xiao Yan explained the ins and outs of the matter, and finally took out a confession and offered it with both hands.

The eunuch stepped forward to take the confession and forwarded it to the old emperor.

The old emperor narrowed his eyes, and it took a while to read all the contents of the confession.

He sneered: "It turns out that this matter was done by King Min. I treat him well on weekdays, but I didn't expect him to hide evil intentions!"

Xiao Lian: "Just based on Li Qiao's one-sided remarks, King Min cannot be convicted. This matter has to be investigated again."

The old emperor put down his confession and commanded in a deep voice.

"I don't care what means you use, you must investigate this case as soon as possible.

If those anti-poems were really done by King Min, even if he was my own brother, I would not spare him lightly!

Do you understand what I mean? "

The last sentence was accentuated by him, making it extraordinarily oppressive.

Xiao Lian lowered his eyes and bowed his head, and replied respectfully, "Wei Chen understands."

In recent years, the suspicion of the old emperor has become more and more serious.

He even became suspicious of his own brothers, feeling that everyone wanted to plot the dragon chair under him.

What he said was to imply that Xiao Wan could use this anti-poem case to pull King Min into the water.

Xiao Juan even had some doubts, whether that Li Qiao was deliberately arranged by the old emperor, in order to make King Min charged with conspiracy.

He stopped his thoughts just in time.

These things are not what he should think about.

All he has to do is carry out the emperor's orders and that's it.

After talking about the business, the old emperor changed the subject and asked suddenly.

"I heard that the eldest lady of Yu Shilang's family is living in your house recently, are you getting along well?"

Xiao Lan: "Thanks to the emperor's concern, Wei Chen is fine."

The old emperor smiled inexplicably: "It seems that the rumors are true, you really have a deep relationship with that Yu curling, so I can rest assured, if there is a chance in the future, you will bring her into the palace to show me and the queen mother. Look."

Xiao Yan replied hello.

The old emperor had limited energy, but after chatting for a while, his face showed fatigue.

Xiao Yan wisely bid farewell.

"It's not early, and Wei Chen will not disturb His Majesty's rest."

The old emperor instructed the eunuch beside him.

"Didn't the southern side pay tribute to a batch of coconuts recently? You have someone share a basket for the king to bring back, and let him have a taste of it."

"Here."

Xiao Lian clasped his fists and saluted, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward."

When he returned to the palace, it was just in time for dinner.

Yu Weiwei was very happy to learn that he brought back a basket of coconuts.

"Coconut is a good thing, I'll cook coconut chicken for you later!"

She only ate coconuts before crossing, and since crossing to Dayan Dynasty, she has never eaten coconuts again.

In this era, transportation is inconvenient, and the transportation of fruits requires a lot of manpower and material resources, and the transportation cost is too high.

Only the emperor is qualified to enjoy the fresh coconuts delivered from the southernmost side, and the common people have never even seen this.

Xiao Wan looked at her thoughtfully.

"From the tone of your voice, you seem to have eaten coconut before?"

Yu curling: Help! How should I answer this?
