Dewey followed Karina back to her house. Karina dried her tears and changed her clothes. After getting familiar with the dress, she came out to see Dewey again. He saluted Dewey with a formal courtesy. Every move fully shows respect for Dewey.
Although Dewey doesn't care much about this, Karina's attitude is very serious this time: "teacher, this is what my father told me before he died. Because from now on, you are not only my teacher. My father is gone and my brother is young. From now on, you are the biggest pillar of the Empire
Dewey could only sigh as he looked at the solemn expression on the child's face.
After sitting down, Kalina's close female officer Lan Lan brought tea with her own hands. Du Wei and LAN LAN look at each other and immediately avoid each other. However, Lan Lan's eyes seem to be a little embarrassed. This is their first meeting after Du Wei's night visit to the palace that day.
From now on, Lan Lan kept her promise and didn't reveal the secret, including the little princess.
Duwei threw a look of deep gratitude in the past, but Lan Lan lowered her head to avoid it and quickly backed out.
"Teacher." When there were only two people left in the room, Karina began to speak. Her young face was full of worries: "I've been looking forward to you day and night, and I've finally looked forward to you back. Now this situation... "
Dewey immediately interrupted her: "there's nothing wrong with the situation." Du Wei said faintly: "the situation in the Northern War is getting better and more stable. Although there are national funerals in the Empire, the foundation is still very stable, and no one takes the opportunity to make trouble. I think the situation in the imperial capital is still stable... "
Kalina seems to have turned her lips and looked at Du Wei discontentedly: "teacher. When you taught me, you told me that everything should be taken precautions! You don't have to say such boring prevarication to me! Brother, he... Just after his father died, brother, he began to make trouble! "
Du Wei laughed, Wen said: "after all, Charlie is young. He is in power for the first time. He is inevitably impatient and lacks some experience in dealing with things. There are also some... "
"Well, what about Gao cha? Is the teacher going to let him bewitch his brother's heart when he comes back this time? " Karina was a little worried.
Du Wei spread out his hand, a faint smile: "Your Highness, I am now a foreign minister. Don't forget, I don't have any actual position in the Imperial military academy. I'm only the dean of the Imperial military academy. In addition, I will not hold any other actual positions. My rank is now commander-in-chief of the eastern front. According to the practice of the Empire, generals should not interfere in the affairs of the Empire. "
Karina frowned deeply, thinking of this: "well, that's what she said, but my brother didn't like him. I should be willing to listen to you. "
Dewey just sneered at this. Karina was a little impatient with his smile: "teacher, am I wrong?"
Dewey shook his head and asked her, "Your Highness. Do you think, your majesty, he is the same as he was
Sure enough, Kalina stayed for a while and sighed dejectedly: "yes, brother, he... He has changed a lot."
Du Wei then said slowly: "young people, there are always some rebellious. At the moment, if I go to accuse or advise him face to face. Most of them will arouse his rebellious mind, but the effect is not good. It's always a side job. Hum, that Gao Cha is just a good choice. It's not a clever method
After a pause, Dewey looked at the worried little princess and said in a soft voice, "OK. Karina. Now that I'm back, I can't watch him fool around. Your father left me a message. Anyway, I'll keep the country
"Then, what can you do?"
Duwei thought for a while, a light flashed in his eyes, and he gave a cold smile: "hum, I just said that Gao Cha was just his favorite, and his means were not brilliant. However, in the imperial capital, all the other prisons are looking at the face of his family strength and are not willing to provoke him. They are not really afraid of him! All of a sudden, he jumped from a local governor to the position of deputy minister of state. Is it true that there is no dissatisfaction in other people's hearts? It's just that there's no one leading the way. Moreover, for the sake of the power of Princess Dali and general arpaye, we don't want to offend him easily. No one is willing to be an outsider. "
With that, Dewey leaned down, gently hugged the little princess, touched her hair, and said with a soft smile, "remember what I taught you? The psychology of human nature is always exclusive. A fixed circle, suddenly broke into an outsider, the circle of the original people, the heart may not be very happy. Now that I'm back, I'm the only one to play the leading role. These days, I'll meet with the leaders of the imperial capital to find out what they mean... Hum, that Gao Cha won't be proud for long. "
"And the woman next to my brother now." Karina frowned.
Dewey also had a headache. It's easy to say anything else, but I can't interfere in this woman's affairs. After all, in terms of identity, he is a minister and Charlie is an emperor. Even if the other side sells their face, respect themselves. But I have no reason to interfere with what women the little emperor likes.
After coming out of Karina, Dewey went to see the little emperor again.
The meeting with the little emperor is not as harmonious as that with Karina. After all, the former master and apprentice became a king and minister. Although Charlie still showed enough respect for Dewey, he also had the meaning of suppressing Dewey, as if he was angry that Dewey didn't dump him some time ago.
But now Dewey's temper is surprisingly good. In front of Charlie, he is calm and doesn't say anything else. Let the child perform. He didn't mention anything about Gao Cha's appointment as Deputy Minister of state. Many people in the imperial capital complained about it. Charlie was also prepared to think that Dewey would tell him about it when he came back. I didn't expect that Dewey didn't even mention a word.
Du Wei only said some words to comfort Charlie to be sad. By the way, he cheered up as soon as possible. He also exhorted Charlie to be a wise king. Finally, he left soon.
Even the military affairs on the front line. I didn't report to Charlie.
Charlie worried for a day. He had prepared a lot of words to deal with Dewey. He knew that it was a bit of mischief to rashly promote Gao Cha to Deputy Minister of state. It's just that when young people are in power, they can't control themselves. Just like a person suddenly made a lot of windfall, also always can't control, like spending money.
He also thought that Dewey would ask for his own punishment. After all, Charlie was still afraid of the teacher's usual power.
But Duwei didn't mention it. He didn't use the words he was planning to use, although he was a little stuffy. But I was relieved.
Dewey soon left, then Dewey did not immediately leave the palace, but went back to meet Princess Louise. Princess Louise haggard a lot, she and Prince Chen between brother and sister is very good, Prince Chen died, she is very sad. Dewey met her, and only comforted her. But she didn't mention any serious state affairs, and she also took the initiative to talk about Hussein's outstanding performance in the front line, which made Princess Louise feel a little better.
After meeting Princess Louise, it will be afternoon.
Dewey did not eat lunch and stood at the gate of the palace where Princess Louise lived. After thinking for a while, I was about to go home, but suddenly I changed my mind.
He said to the court attendants who were with him, "I'm going to see Princess Dali. Please lead the way."
There was something unexpected about the court attendants. It seems that it's not polite to see the princess, and even if you want to see her, you should see the queen first.
But the man in front of him is not an ordinary foreign minister, but the famous tulip Duke. How dare he refuse, a small underground court servant? We can only lead the way.
Duvet hasn't seen that Princess Dali for a long time. Since she married the royal family, she has heard that her life is very depressing.
Originally, Prince Chen was not a lecherous person. He is very diligent in charge of state affairs and spends most of his time in his study. Occasionally have leisure, but also mostly used to accompany their own pair of children. Moreover, he and the queen are a couple in need, and they had a good relationship when he was an excluded prince.
Therefore, although Princess daili was ambitious after she married the Regent, she could only stay in the cold palace.
It is said that since she married, she has been married for nearly three years. The number of times Prince Chen spent the night with her. Even two hands count.
Unexpectedly, when Dewey came to the palace where Princess Dali lived. But a maid in waiting at the door only said that the princess was too sad to see the guests.
Even here, Du Weidi's name was reported. After the announcement, the reply was that the princess was too sad to see the guests. Please go back to tulip Duke.
Du Wei was not angry. He stood at the door with his hand down, looked at the sky, as if thinking for a while, and then looked at the court maid with a smile. He knew that all the court maids who took care of Princess Dali must have brought her heart when she married in.
"In that case, I will not venture to see you." Du Wei looked at the court female officer in front of him with a smile. He saw at a glance that the two girls in front of him, who seemed to be unconventional, were actually very good female warriors: "however, I have a few words. Please tell your royal highness, er, just say..."
Dewey's smile seemed to be a little shy, and his voice was also very soft: "please tell the princess, and say, 'I know there is something unpleasant between my highness and me. I don't think anything else happened in the past. However, last year's incident really let me down. Your highness, you should know my temper. If I am very unhappy, maybe I will do something unpleasant. ", Well, these are the words. Please go in and convey them now. I'll stand here waiting for the princess's reply. "
The palace maid looked at Duwei in surprise and thought that the tulip Duke was really brave, and even dared to say such rude words to the princess?!
Dewey was in no hurry.
After a while, the maid in waiting trotted all the way back to Duwei's face. As if also some flustered: "Dian, your highness let me ask you... Ask you..."
"Ask me what?" Dewey was smiling.
The palace maid gritted her teeth: "Your Highness asked," Duke tulip, how can I be happier? "
Du Wei didn't look at the maid's face, just looked at the sky and said: "don't say, don't stretch out, don't care... Well, that's it."
There was a pause. He took a cold look at the maid: "I have something else to do, so I won't wait here for the princess's reply. As long as you take my words to the princess, you can say, your highness, whether she agrees or not depends on her own thoughts. I hope she will consider it deeply. All right, that's it. I have something else to do. I'll go first. "
Finish saying, unexpectedly so swagger left!
The court waiter who followed duvet had just been standing far away and did not dare to get too close. As soon as Dewey left, he followed quickly.
Du Wei walked along and said faintly: "did you hear what I said to the maids under the princess just now?"
"Er... No! I dare not eavesdrop! " The court waiter shook his head.
Dewey strode on: "you go back. Your majesty will certainly ask you, you follow me today, who I met and what I said in the palace. It doesn't matter. You just say it. "
The waiter said with a wry smile: "Sir, I didn't hear what you said just now. I stand so far away..."
Dewey just stopped. Frown, look at this guy: "let you say, you say. Don't think I don't know. You're standing there with your ears up in the direction of the wind. "
The waiter's face turned white and he was about to kneel down, but Dewey regained his smile and pulled him up. But he slipped a gold coin into his hand: "listen to me. According to the facts, not a word can be omitted! "
When Dewey's out of the palace. As expected, the waiter returned to the little emperor and reported some things that Duwei had done in the palace today. Except for Princess Karina, they talked behind closed doors, and the contents of the conversation were unknown. Duwei didn't hide anything from the court waiter.
When it comes to Dewey's words and deeds with Princess Dali
"Well? "Don't..." Charlie frowned and thought, "listen to the meaning of this, is Princess Dali, there's something shady about being caught by the teacher?
He stood up and walked back and forth a few steps: "other things in the past... What does that mean? And last year? What happened last year? "
He soon called for the palace guard general chick and inquired carefully.
Chick frowned: "Your Majesty... Last year..."
"Oh?" Charlie looked at his father's most trusted lineage: "it seems that you know something about last year?"
"I'm not sure. Something happened last year, but I don't know what it has to do with Princess Dali. " Chick said: "moreover, only a few people know about that matter. At present, the only people I know about that matter are the former king and the Duke of tulip, the court magician and me. The former king strictly ordered us not to reveal half a word... "
"Nonsense! Now I'm asking you, don't you dare to say it? " Charlie said angrily.
Chick struggled for a while. After all, he was loyal to the royal family. Since the Regent died, his loyalty was transferred to the little emperor without reservation. The chief bodyguard sighed and lowered his voice: "do you remember the New Year dinner last year, your majesty?"
How can Charlie forget?!
At that dinner, he admired the Muse in his heart and invited the muse to dance the first dance as the emperor. However, he was rejected by the other party for such glory, which made him feel very sad all the time.
"Dinner? What's the matter? "
"At the dinner party, Duke tulip once left the meeting place..."
"Well, I remember." Charlie nodded: "my father sent him to the back to discuss something."
"The fact is: someone faked an order and cheated Duke tulip to the back, then there was an assassination! Fortunately, the Duke of tulip has extraordinary strength. Although he was seriously ill at that time, he was still killed and assassinated, only slightly injured. "
Charlyton was surprised, and his eyes widened: "assassinate?"
The little emperor's eyes suddenly changed. After jumping up and sitting down, the eyes, but obviously try to think about what.
"What's your point in doing this?"
After returning to the Duke's house, Dewey was in his study, facing a special guest.
Wrapped in a blanket, the old man impolitely occupied the most comfortable chair behind the desk in Dewey's study, but Dewey himself could only sit in the guest chair.
LAN Haiyue sighed and asked the question. Dewey didn't answer immediately. He just gave the old man a squint: "can you stop doing this. At least you are also a strong saint. Don't act like an old man who doesn't follow the wind. "
"I'm old and used to it." LAN Haiyue smiles calmly, but tightens the blanket on the tight body: "I'm different from you, your body is much stronger than me. I'm not good at martial arts. It's normal to be weak. "
Dewey snorted. He didn't talk to this guy anymore. "What did you ask me?"
"You know that court servant around you is the ear and eye of the little emperor."
"It's obvious. I'm a foreign minister, running back and forth in the palace. People around you will definitely report back. " Dewey curled his mouth.
"So you said those words to Princess Dali's men in front of her eyes and ears, in order to spread them to the little emperor's ears?" LAN Haiyue looks at Du Wei with a smile.
"Not bad." Dewey nodded.
The old man sighed: "you... Are too cunning."
Du Wei laughed as expected: "I can't help it either... The little emperor is getting older, and it seems that he is becoming more and more headstrong after taking power. But he always thought he was smart. I like to do some clever tricks. If I were on the ground, I would tell him that Princess Dali is not a good thing. Tell him that Gao Cha and his family have no good ideas. I'm afraid he won't believe it. Especially now. When he wants to praise Gao Cha! Well, he only believes in himself, little boy. It's too strong. "
"So you play it on purpose. Too obvious? Idiots know that the court waiter around you is the eye and ear, and you still say those words in front of him. " LAN Haiyue shakes her head.
"If it's Chen... I won't use such a bad trick." Du Wei said that, the corner of his eye jumped for a while, it seemed sad, but then he sighed: "unfortunately, the little emperor's IQ is limited. If I play too much, I'm afraid he won't understand. This little trick not only achieved the purpose of my message, but also made the little emperor "think he was smart" to find something. In this way, it's not something I told him, but something he found himself. It's easier for him to believe than if I said it directly. "
There was a pause. Dewey said slowly, "as for me. My purpose is very simple, you old man. Don't you understand? Hum
That's true
After hearing these words, the little emperor naturally asked: what happened last year?
Very good, so, then he check with the emperor's identity, although Prince Chen had given a password, but now Charlie is the emperor! He can easily find out what happened last year: he was assassinated!
Then, next, the little emperor will think: Duwei was assassinated, this matter, why is Princess daili so afraid? Is Princess daili behind the assassination
Apart from that, as a princess, she was involved in the assassination of imperial ministers
Do you think the emperor can trust such people? Can you trust this family?
Let's go a step further: Why did Princess Dali assassinate the tulip Duke? Is there a deep hatred between them?
Is it because the two families are political enemies?
Or... What's the point of Dali being caught by Tulip Duke to kill? What are the shady tricks?
In this way, it's easy for little emperor Charlie to have a little more resentment towards Gao Cha's family in his heart. Recently, Du Wei cut a crack in his harmonious relationship by this silent means.
Du Wei said with a smile: "the little emperor just likes to be smart. Some things, I said directly, are not effective. He pretended to be discovered by him, but he believed it. "
He sighed again, and his tone was a little lonely: "it's very sad to say that... Chen is such a smart guy. If he lives, I won't play with such a low-level kid. Alas... It's hard to find an opponent... This guy, it's not the right time to die. "
Blue sea Yue snorted: "he is alive, you suffer. He's dead. You are sad
Du Wei Leng for a while, but nodded, tone is very sad: "yes, it is so."
An old man and a young man sat opposite each other for a while. Dewey asked another question: "old man... Old white, he left from you at last. You really don't know where he went?"
"I don't know." LAN Haiyue shook his head: "before he left, he seemed to say. Look for something. You know, if he doesn't say it himself, I can't even ask. "
Dewey wry smile: "now, I really hope he can be here."
"Why?"
"I..." Dewey shook his head. "I'm afraid, in the short term. There's no way to go back to the northern front. "
He shook his head and looked at LAN Haiyue: "old man, I told you about Daxueshan. Are you not sad at all? "
"I don't know what I'm sad about." LAN Haiyue snorted: "at my age, I'm open to everything."
Although the words say so, but in the old man's eyes, still can't hide of reveal a trace of sadness.
"All right." Dewey grinned bitterly: "I'll send someone to take you back. These days, I will visit you and ask for your advice. "
Blue sea Yue smile: "Oh?"
"Philip is far in the northwest." Dewey opened his hand. "I'm back now. I have a lot of problems. There's not even one person to discuss. Philip is my most trusted staff. He is not with me. You are his teacher. I have to find you. What's more, you and I can be regarded as martial brothers in terms of reputation. "
Seeing off LAN Haiyue, Du Wei really took a rest.
Since he returned to the imperial capital last night, he went to the palace early in the morning. It was evening when he came back. He invited LAN Haiyue to discuss with him for a long time. It was late at night now.
He has a busy day. Not even a bite of food. I'm hungry. I'm finally out of breath. Just out of the study, face to face to see Vivian all the way trot over, almost a head into the arms of Du Wei.
Du Wei gently embraces Vivian in his arms, but Vivian screams and nearly jumps up: "ah! No, don't hold it
"What's the matter?" Dewey smiles and looks at her gently: "I haven't come back for many days. Don't you want me? Don't like me to hold you? "
Vivian's face flushed, looking at Du Wei's eyes full of missing, but some shy: "ah, no, no, it's not."
"No? You mean you don't want me? "
"Oh, no! No Vivian was so anxious that she almost burst into tears.
Dewey didn't dare to tease her any more. He gently hugged her, gave her a kiss on the tip of her nose, and said softly, "you miss me, don't you?"
"Well..."
"You like me to hold you, don't you?" Dewey laughed deeper.
"... mmm..." Vivian's eyes were almost dripping, but she didn't dare to look into Duwei's eyes.
"It's all my people, so I'm shy." Dewey laughs: "come on, give your husband a hug."
But as soon as she reached out her hand, Vivian flashed out of Du Wei's arms like a little rabbit. Du Wei was about to jump, but Vivian had already screamed, her face changed, and she was crying: "ah! Crush, crush! All, all of you
It turned out that she opened her coat, but saw that under her fur coat, there was a paper package. When she opened it, there were several exquisite cakes. As soon as Du Wei saw the paper bag, he recognized that it was a cake from a very famous shop in the imperial city. The cake was famous for its delicacy and was very popular in the imperial city. These pieces, which had been hidden under the clothes, were crushed by duvera just now.
"Yi?" Du Wei looked at Vivian's sad face and said with a smile: "what's this? Ah, I see. You are greedy. You hide these delicious things in your clothes and want to steal them from me? Ah, silly girl, I didn't abuse you. You can eat as you like. Why hide it? "
Wei Wei An pouts her lips, looks aggrieved, tears in her eyes, and suddenly says with a cry: "you, you come back... You say, you haven't eaten all day, I remember you like to eat, eat this. I, I remember you like to eat this, so you rode out to buy it. It's hot. I'm afraid it's cold. I hid it under my clothes all the way... You... "
As soon as Du Wei heard this, he was deeply moved. He thought that this little girl was riding all the way with snacks in her arms, pulling the reins with one hand and covering the things in her arms with the other hand. She was not afraid to fall down from the horse.
Go up a to embrace Wei Wei Anne tightly, soft voice way: "it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. I like food. It can be eaten even if it's crushed. "
With that, he snatched the snack in the paper bag and swallowed one at a time.
Vivian was stunned: "you..."
"I what me?" Du Wei glared, then said with a smile: "you get me something, not to mention such a delicious snack, even if it's a stone, I swallow it with my mouth open!"
Vivian just puffed a smile, but stammered: "I, I won't give you to eat, eat stone!"
Dewey pecked on her little mouth again and said softly, "I know. You're not willing to."
After a while, Duwei ate all these things and asked, "Yi? Where's your sister? "
Vivian just laughed and looked at Duwei. There was something strange in her eyes: "sister, she's still angry with you."
It turns out that when Duwei went to the north to fight, Qiao Qiao wanted to follow him. At last, Duwei refused. No matter how hard he worked, he couldn't do it. Miss Qiao was very dissatisfied.
Joe hasn't shown up since Dewey came back last night.
Seeing that Du Wei was in a daze, Vivian was embarrassed and said in a low voice: "in fact, sister, she has not been angry for a long time. During the day, you were in the palace, sister. In the afternoon, she went outside the palace to wait for you. After waiting for you for a long time, she finally came back alone. Sister, she prepared something for you, which she made herself. "
Du Wei sighed, hugged Vivian in his arms, and suddenly whispered: "Hello, little silly girl. This time... After the Regent's funeral, we'll have a wedding in a few days. "
"Marriage, wedding?" Vivian was surprised and raised her head. She was surprised to stare at Du Wei, with a blush on her cheek.
"Well, the wedding." Dewey nodded and hugged the man in his arms.
