When Xiao Shunzi sent the message, Pei Anan was reading the comments in the comment area. Obviously, the comments of these people from other worlds were more interesting than Xiao Shunzi, so she just waved her hand to show that she understood.

Two days ago, the comment section was still calling Pei Annan a mad dog, but now everyone has changed the direction and started to worry about Pei Annan.

The previous frenzied political debate situation reappeared, and everyone was giving advice and constantly using search engines to find relevant information, hoping to help Pei Annan.

Pei Annan felt a little strange. These people didn't know that they really existed, and they didn't know that they could read these comments, but they still had feelings for a character in a book.

However, she is quite willing to accept these feelings as points.

People in the comment area were worried. Those who were capable posted long speeches and made suggestions, while those who were incompetent posted hugs and hugs. It was as if Pei Annan had really encountered some obstacle that he could not overcome.

Aren't they just a few clowns? Pei Annan curled her lips and closed the comment area.

A few days ago, the son of a wealthy businessman from Yongzhou came to Beijing to file a petition against the emperor. The noise was so great that everyone knew about it.

It's not impossible for civilians to leapfrog their superiors and sue officials. It's just that the state's national laws require the plaintiff to roll a nail board in the street and be flogged fifty times. If he can withstand these, he can file an appeal.

The son of a wealthy businessman not only rolled on the nail board and received a whip, but he also had the energy to throw his complaint at the meddling crowd, which made the matter bigger.

He went to Beijing to file a complaint. First, he accused his own sister of killing her father and seizing the property, not abiding by filial piety, ignoring human ethics, and contemptuous of the law. Second, he accused Yongzhou officials of ignoring the matter, doing nothing, and being an unkind official.

But everyone heard a different flavor.

He didn't say it explicitly, and he didn't write a complaint, but he clearly had three more complaints.

Three times, I told the current emperor that he killed his father and brother to seize the throne. He wanted to be the emperor even though he was a woman. It was a shameful thing! He made it so that the daughters of ordinary people would follow suit, thinking that she could do it too.

As a result, this matter was no longer just an ordinary public complaint, nor was it a private matter of this wealthy businessman. Everyone turned their attention to the court and the woman sitting on the throne.

Pei Annan flipped through the complaint and sneered without concealing his disdain.

Want to put her on the fire and roast her? That's all you can do?

After a while, she called Eunuch Su and followed Xie Chenghe's instructions, suspending the morning court for the past two days.

In this compartment, Xie Chenghe is sitting in the Imperial Master's Mansion, and sitting opposite is Chen Yanshu.

The two people looked solemn.

When Xie Chenghe first learned about this, he went to see Song Dan, the son of a wealthy businessman. This man had nothing to say, but the personal guard standing next to him turned out to be Liu San.

Back then, Xie Chenghe used his power to expel Liu San from the palace. It was impossible for people who were expelled from the palace by the imperial master to make a living in the capital. He wanted Liu San to stay far away from the capital and never come back.

But he didn't expect that Liu San would go to Yongzhou and become Song Dan's bodyguard.

If it was just like this, it would be considered a coincidence, but the incident that Song Dan caused today was so targeted that Xie Chenghe had no choice but to connect Liu San with this incident.

Later, Xie Chenghe contacted Chen Yanshu and asked him to retrieve all information related to Liu San.

Chen Yanshu had successfully completed the task before and was now the minister of the Ministry of Personnel, so it was easy to retrieve documents from the Ministry of Personnel.

This investigation revealed that Liu San was recommended by Yue Jinyan, the imperial censor, when he entered the palace.

After a while, Chen Yanshu spoke again: "Liu San is a member of Yue Jinyan, but this incident about the Song family really happened. Do you think this is a coincidence, or..."

Xie Chenghe shook his head. If it were someone else, he would still hesitate a bit, but Yue Jinyan... then there would be nothing to hesitate about.

Yue Jinyan, the imperial censor, was a close confidant of the late emperor. As early as when the late emperor was still an unknown prince, Yue Jinyan spent money and efforts to find ways for him and accumulate connections for him.

Later, when the late emperor ascended the throne, Yue Jinyan was promoted one after another and became a censor.

The forces behind him were so complicated that after Pei Annan ascended the throne, even though he knew that he was loyal to the late emperor and was eyeing him, he could not eradicate him or even isolate him.

Since Pei Annan came to the throne, although Yue Jinyan has not shown a good face, he has not targeted him as much as those who have died. Therefore, Xie Chenghe always thought that he was old and no longer had such thoughts.

Now it seems that the more forbearing a person is, the more terrifying he is.

"This matter cannot get any bigger." Chen Yanshu frowned, "No matter what the verdict is, it will be a slap in His Majesty's face. The best solution to this matter is to suppress it, completely suppress it."

"Winter has entered now, and in a while every household will be busy with the Spring Festival, so no one will think of this matter anymore."

Xie Chenghe nodded: "I think so too."

"It's just that Yue Jinyan probably won't give up."

Chen Yanshu coughed suddenly and said this without embarrassment: "It's not that... there is nothing we can do."

"Brother Chen, if you have any idea, just say it." Xie Chenghe said strangely, "What else can you hide now?"

Chen Yanshu laughed dryly: "It's just this method... Brother Xie Xian may have to... suffer some losses."

Looking at Xie Chenghe's surprised eyes, Chen Yanshu licked his lips and smiled: "Don't blame me for prying into your privacy. Is there nothing wrong with the officials? I didn't mean to look."

"It's just...don't you have a relationship with Yue Jinyan's precious daughter, Yue Zhirou?"

Xie Chenghe was stunned for a moment, his face suddenly turned red, he drank two mouthfuls of water in a panic, and scolded: "What nonsense! Don't ruin my reputation!"

"I know, I know." Chen Yanshu waved his hand, "I am interested in my husband and I am ruthless! The Yue family has already begged the late emperor, but you didn't agree. It can be seen that you have no interest in her."

"However, Yue Zhirou, Yue's daughter, is not married yet, and she is being called an old girl."

"Who knows if I'm still thinking of you?"

Xie Chenghe swallowed the tea in the cup without tasting anything. He opened his mouth to retort, but no words came out.

He remembered that Pei Annan had brought this matter up on him two days ago.

The late emperor did almost grant the marriage, and he did say that he was not willing to discuss the marriage for the time being, saying that it was fate and could not be forced.

That day was interesting to say the least. Spring was in full bloom and the sky was just right. The late emperor took some of his concubines to the palace for hunting and asked the officials in the capital to join in the fun with their families.

The East Palace received the order. Since it was the late emperor's sudden idea, the preparation time was very short. Everyone was busy, so Xie Chenghe's class was naturally unable to be taught.

The prince was enjoying himself and was busy getting ready. Pei Anan was the only one who sat there blankly, with the brush spinning around at his fingertips and ink splattering all over his face.

"Why don't you clean it up?" Xie Chenghe turned to ask her.

Xie Chenghe seldom talked to her on weekdays, so Pei Annan was stunned for a long time before she realized that he was asking her.

"I'm not going." She said matter-of-factly, putting down her brush and holding her hands in front of her chest, "There is no place for me to live in the palace."

Xie Chenghe only thought she was joking. The palace was so big that even he, the Imperial Master, had a room comparable to that of a prince. How could there be no place for the princess to live?

So he reached out and wiped off the ink on Pei Annan's face, and said with a straight face: "Do you think you can skip class when we go to the palace? Pack your things and put your thoughts away. I will check your homework when you get there."

But at that time, he ignored Pei Annan's not-so-perfectly concealed confusion and the late emperor's surprise when he saw his daughter in the palace.

While hunting in the jungle, Xie Chenghe couldn't ride a horse or shoot an arrow, so he could only take a walk in the woods. He bumped into Pei Annan riding a horse and asked her about her lessons these days.

At this time, Yue Zhirou's horse was frightened for some reason and ran wildly past the two of them. Yue Zhirou screamed repeatedly.

Xie Chenghe was anxious and wanted to catch up to save Yue Zhirou, but Pei Annan took him on his horse and rushed over on horseback.

In the end, it was Pei Annan who grabbed the reins of the crazy horse and frayed his hands before he could control it. Yue Zhirou fell off the horse in exhaustion and was caught by Xie Chenghe.

After that, Yue Jinyan took Yue Zhirou to the late emperor to ask for marriage. When Xie Chenghe was called, he was still giving medicine to Pei Annan.

In the palace, the late emperor smiled and praised Yue Zhirou as a flower, and asked Xie Chenghe for his opinion.

How could Xie Chenghe not know what he meant? He had long thought that such a day would come, and he never thought it would be a big deal.

If the benefactor needs him to become a talented person, he will become a talented person. If the benefactor needs him to assist the prince, he will assist the prince. Now the benefactor needs him to get married, so just get married.

But Xie En's words were stuck in his throat and he couldn't say them out. All he could think about was whether Pei Annan, that little witch, was having fun again, or was out there looking for harm.

At this moment, Pei Annan rushed in recklessly. She was deceived by the evil-minded sisters, thinking that there was delicious food here.

She knelt on the ground and was submissive, not daring to raise her head, but everyone could feel the late emperor's gloomy expression.

At this moment, Xie Chenghe spoke: "I have no plans to discuss marriage for the time being."

Everyone looked at him again.

"I believe that marriage is a matter of fate and cannot be forced."

At the end, he added: "Master Yue's daughter is very good, but she is not destined to be a junior. I hope you will forgive me."

"Thank you, Sir? Thank you, Sir?" Chen Yanshu stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Xie Chenghe's eyes, "Why are you so stunned?"

Xie Chenghe shook his head: "It's okay, I just remembered some past events."

Chen Yan, the book thief, smiled: "What about the past with Yue Qianjin?"

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Chen Yanshu got to know him well and knew that this man was too serious to be teased, so he repeatedly begged for mercy: "I was wrong, I was wrong."

"However, isn't tomorrow the day to receive Madam Gaoming in the palace? Now that the palace has no heir, I'm afraid your Majesty will have to receive her in person. If you want to get in touch with Yue Zhirou, this is a good opportunity."

Xie Chenghe listened and frowned: "She also needs to do this kind of thing?"

"There is no way." Chen Yanshu spread his hands, "Now that there is no queen, your Majesty can only do it."

"Your Majesty is now eighteen. How about I submit a letter tomorrow asking Your Majesty to consider selecting a female...a male...what do you mean?"
