On the way back, Emperor Lan Qian held little Yan Bao in his arms and asked, "Yan Bao, tell me the truth, why did Little Thirteen eat books?"

"Dad, didn't I tell you everything? Don't you believe me?"

"Your Majesty, I told you that it might be because Little Thirteen was poisoned earlier, why don't you believe me?"

Emperor Lan Qian glanced at Queen Hui with an ambiguous look.

As a mother, you may not really understand your daughter.

However, since Yan Bao didn't want to tell the truth, he didn't ask any further questions. Maybe Da Huang would tell the truth one day.

"Father didn't disbelieve Yan Bao, but I didn't expect that after the poison was eliminated, Xiao Shisan would still be in this condition."

"Don't worry, Daddy. Little Thirteen won't eat books anymore. Let's go back and eat quickly. I'm hungry."

When Emperor Lan Qian heard his daughter say she was hungry, he quickened his pace.

"Dad, why don't I go down by myself?" said little Yanbao.

If she had left by herself, she would have returned to Kunxi Palace by now.

But Emperor Lan Qian did not agree.

Zhang Fu caught up with him from behind, "Your Majesty, the Sixth Prince and the Minister of the Ministry of Rites are in the Imperial Study asking to see you."

Emperor Lan Qian: I just want to have a meal in peace, but I can’t.

One by one, they all don't know how to feel sorry for me.

Originally, since Yan Bao said she was hungry, she should have been asked to go back to Kunxi Palace for dinner.

But a few days ago, Dahuang said that there might be something wrong with Gao Shumo.

But until now it hasn't said what's wrong with Gao Shumo.

So Emperor Lan Qian changed his route and returned to Qianhe Palace with little Yan Bao in his arms.

"Your Majesty, Yan Bao said she was hungry. Please go and take care of government affairs. Let Yan Bao and I go back to eat."

"Tell someone to send it over."

Emperor Lan Qian left after saying a few words, holding little Yan Bao in his arms.

Queen Hui was so angry that she gnashed her teeth.

Your Majesty, why do you always hold Yan Bao in your arms when you are busy with government affairs? Yan Bao is a child with some abilities, but she doesn't understand government affairs.

The harem was not allowed to interfere in government affairs, and she could not go with them.

Xiao Yanbao was also thinking about what Dahuang said about Gao Shumo being problematic, so she even made a special trip to the residence of the Minister of the Ministry of Rites.

No signs were found that Gao Shumo had any ill intentions, let alone any evidence.

She really needs to ask Da Huang to listen.

Dad has agreed to let Sixth Brother and Gao Shumo go to Tunisia to assist my brother.

Although he is not going to replace his brother, once the situation in Tunisia is completely stabilized, his brother will be able to hand over all matters to his sixth brother and return to Beijing.

It can be said that she kept her promise.

There was no expression on Emperor Lan Qian's face. He just glanced at the Sixth Prince and Gao Shumo who were waiting outside the imperial study.

"Come in and tell me what you want to say."

After sitting at the table, Emperor Lan Qian asked calmly, "You will go to Tunisia tomorrow. Is there something important that you came to see me at this hour? Or do you not want to go?"

"Father, I am here to look for my sister."

Emperor Lan Qian raised his eyebrows, quite surprised.

"Then Lord Gao is here to look for the little princess as well?"

"Your Majesty, I am here to see the little princess as well."

"Then why don't you just go find the little princess? Why are you in the imperial study?"

The Sixth Prince: Father, isn’t my sister under your control as long as she is in the palace?

My sister must be with father.

If you come to see father, you will definitely be able to see your sister.

"Your Majesty, I need your permission to see the little princess. I dare not ask to see the little princess privately."

"I think I can see my sister here with you, father."

Emperor Lan Qian glanced at Yan Bao in his arms.

That means they are all here to find you, not me.

"Tell me, what do you want to see the little princess about?" asked Emperor Lan Qian.

"Father, I want to ask my sister for a talisman that can quickly reach Tunisia, so that I can reach Tunisia quickly to help my fourth brother."

Emperor Lan Qian looked at Gao Shumo and said, "Lord Gao, are you here to ask the little princess for amulets as well?"

Gao Shumo shook his head and said, "I'm looking for the little princess for something else."

"Sixth brother, I can give you the teleportation talisman, but you don't have spiritual power and can't use the teleportation talisman to reach Tunisia directly. I'll let my old apprentice use the soaring cloud to take you there."

The Sixth Prince was a little surprised to hear his sister agree so readily.

"Thank you sister."

"Mr. Gao, what do you want to talk to me about?" little Yanbao asked.

Gao Shumo seemed to have difficulty speaking, and looked at the emperor, "Your Majesty, can I talk to the little princess alone?"

Emperor Lan Qian raised his eyebrows again and said, "There is nothing I cannot bear to hear."

【Master, Master, I know what's wrong with this person. 】

Emperor Lan Qian's ears immediately pricked up.

[Tell me quickly, what's the problem with Gao Shumo? ]

[Master, Gao Shumo has a childhood sweetheart in Tunisia, not Tunisia now, and he took the initiative to go there just to look for that childhood sweetheart.]

Emperor Lan Qian was a little excited and started gossiping again.

It is said that Gao Shumo only had one concubine and no wife.

Even though he was a third-rank official and all the matchmakers who tried to match him up with him had their doors broken, he still didn't have a wife.

Could it be that the legal wife is the Qingmei that Dahuang mentioned?

I didn't expect Gao Shumo to be such an infatuated person.

"Mr. Gao, are you looking for someone?" Little Yanbao said with a smile.

Gao Shumo suddenly raised his head and looked at Xiao Yanbao, then fell to his knees with a plop.

With red eyes, he said: "Little Princess, please help me."

Little Yanbao waved his hand and used his spiritual power to lift Gao Shumo up from the ground.

"Okay, I'll help you. I'll go to Tunisia with you."

"Yan Bao, you've only been in school for one day. The second rule of Zeng Ji's ten rules is that you can't take leave at will."

"Dad, please tell the teacher about this leave. I'm not asking for leave casually. I'm going to help find someone."

Emperor Lan Qian: He went to tell him? He was afraid that the stubborn old man Zeng Ji would take off his official hat and threaten him again.

So Emperor Lan Qian looked at Gao Shumo.

"Lord Gao, you should talk to Zeng Ji about asking for leave for the little princess. If Zeng Ji agrees to Yan Bao's leave, she will help you. If Zeng Ji disagrees, I can't help you either."

When Gao Shumo heard what the emperor said, a look of worry appeared on his face.

Your Majesty, you are the emperor. You don’t even dare to ask for leave. If he goes, won’t he be turned away?

What's more...

But... forget it, just go for it.

"I will go to Lord Zeng to ask for leave for the little princess."

Emperor Lan Qian nodded and said, "Then go ahead. I'm going to have dinner with the little princess. Oh, and ask Zeng Ji to sign the leave application."

Gao Shumo: Is it so troublesome to ask for leave here?

Why is it like a court hearing and requires signatures and seals?

Zeng Ji, you really are too proud.

After leaving the palace, Gao Shumo did not go directly to Zeng Ji's house, but went back to his own house first to get something.

The Sixth Prince wanted to follow, but Gao Shumo didn't let him.

Gao Shumo came to Zeng Ji's house, but was turned away.

Gao Shumo expected this to happen.

"Zeng Ji, if you don't let me in today, I will hang that thing outside your house."
