Chapter 59: Apply eye drops
“I thank the emperor, and I will retire.”
Huo Tang stood up, saluted the emperor, and was about to retire.
"Girl of the Huo family, why don't you stay and have dinner with me before leaving the palace!"
The emperor said with a smile, and now he looks like this, completely different from what he looked at before. Tang's gloomy eyes were like a kind elder.
“Then I’d rather be respectful than obey my orders!”
Huo Tang smiled and nodded, did not refuse, and stayed.
The surrounding ministers have retired one by one, and now only Princess Huo Tang, the emperor, and the serving maids and eunuchs are left in the imperial study.
Hearing that Huo Tang stayed, the eldest princess snorted in displeasure: "Brother, isn't it a family dinner for you and me today? What are you doing with her as an outsider?"
Although she was asking the emperor, her eyes were looking at Huo Tang, as if she was saying that Huo Tang was ignorant.
Huo Tang smiled and said nothing.
The emperor said with a smile: "Sister Huang, King Anyang was adopted as an adopted son by his father. He grew up with us as brothers and sisters. His children are also our descendants. This He can be regarded as a junior in his family."
"This Huo Tang girl seldom comments, and rarely speaks at palace banquets. I rarely have the opportunity to chat with him about family matters, but today I can take advantage of it. Let’s have a chance to chat”
“Besides, this little girl will be the new King Anyang in the future. She has to shoulder the responsibilities of her father. Naturally, I have to get familiar with the girl.”
< br>After hearing this, the eldest princess did not speak. She glared at Huo Tang, and then walked out of the imperial study room first
The emperor said with a smile: "The eldest sister's temper is getting worse now. She’s grown up, Huo girl, don’t argue with her. Besides, what happened a few days ago will inevitably put her in a bad mood.”
“Understand”
Huo Tang smiled and nodded. nodded.
She was completely different from the person who had just argued with the eldest princess. The emperor narrowed his eyes and looked at the person in front of him.
He said casually: "Speaking of which, you were also involved in the incident at the eldest princess's house last time, so..."
When he said this, the emperor paused for a moment, and then he continued: "The previous matters have not been investigated yet. In the heart of the emperor's sister, it is inevitable that she will have resentment towards you, so even if you have gone too far in some aspects, I hope you can Understand”
The emperor’s words secretly reminded the princess that the death of her grandson was related to her.
Although Huo Tang has been acquitted, the last incident has not ended!
She still carries this crime on her body
Huo Tang just smiled slightly when she heard this, and did not show any other strange expression. She said: "The white-haired person will give the black-haired person, wait. The grieving minister can understand"
"But the eldest princess should focus on finding the real murderer instead of keeping an eye on the minister."
"After this incident. I am even more innocent!"
After finishing speaking, she looked up at the emperor: "Besides, even the emperor has issued an order to inform me that I am not guilty, and the eldest princess still insists on this matter. I suspect Zhang. Is the princess dissatisfied with your imperial edict?"
After saying this, Huo Tang stopped and said no more.
Her words made the emperor's expression darken, and he narrowed his eyes.
Although he knew that Huo Tang probably did it on purpose, he still couldn't help but start to think about the meaning of her words.
Could it be that the Imperial Sister——
that she would issue an order to release Huo Tang without charge was all because of the late emperor’s gold medal for immunity from death.
The privileges given to Huo Tang back then were all ordered by the late emperor in public. If he didn't do that, he would have a reputation of disrespecting the late emperor! Princess, she should understand him!
Thinking like this in his heart, he did not show it on his face in front of Huo Tang: "After all, this kind of thing was originally a crime, even if the emperor had to give up for some reason. It is human nature to hold her accountable, but she feels sorry for herself."
Huo Tang knew what the other party meant, she just smiled: "Since she can't let go, she should find out the real culprit."
No matter what the emperor said, Huo Tang just asked the eldest princess to find out the real culprit and did not answer the question in the direction he wanted.
In short, she will not jump into this trap. She did not kill the person, and she will not admit it. As for who the real murderer is, that is something that the eldest princess needs to find out, and Huo Tang will not do it to prove himself. Check his innocence.
At least on the surface she will not take this job
Things have nothing to do with you.
She has always known this.
Even if she wanted to investigate, she would still find out who was harming her.
Instead of investigating to prove the so-called innocence, why should I work for others.
As for the crime?
She doesn't care, it won't affect her now anyway. As for the people outside, who still remembers what happened at that time?
Besides, when she finds out, she will naturally announce it to the world. .
But there was no need for her to talk about it in front of the emperor.
Seeing that Huo Tang never took the bait, the emperor's eyes became deeper and deeper.
I underestimated this girl from the Huo family, she is smarter than I thought
It seems that this girl has rarely interacted with outsiders in recent years and has been hiding herself.
He admires such a person. Having such a smart minister is also an added advantage for Luo Lingguo, and he can get another general.
But this girl is from the Huo family.
Thinking of this, the emperor's eyes were a little complicated, and he stopped mentioning it, and chatted with Huo Tang about his friendship with King Anyang in the early years.
Huo Tang just listened quietly.
From what the emperor said, he had a deep relationship with his father, even better than his biological brothers.
The two cherished each other, and her father was even more loyal to him. He also trusted and valued her father, and in the end he expressed his regret for his father.
Huo Tang just listened, nodding in agreement when he heard certain parts, but he didn't care in his heart.
The other party seemed to be mentioning his friendship with his father, but he was just reminding her that she must be loyal and loyal to him just like she was to her father.
Unfortunately, Huo Tang is not the original Huo Tang, and she is not her father.
Loyalty to others?
Ridiculous!
The only person she wants to be loyal to is herself.
It’s just that Huo Tang is very good at acting. Listening to what the other person said, she looked excited, and from time to time she would look like she would go to hell for him.
Show your loyalty from time to time.
Even the emperor was bewildered by her determined and serious look.
He finally laughed happily, and his eyes when looking at Huo Tang became less defensive and more friendly!
So what if you are smart? She’s just a little girl!
You can fool him with just a few words, work for him, work for him!
