After returning to the palace, Emperor Xuan still seemed to be unhappy. The expression between his eyebrows and eyes had long disappeared. The joy he had when he learned about the high yield of rice in the Prime Minister's Mansion. He only stood in front of the window with a slightly dark face and looked at the night scene, with an unclear expression in his eyes.

Gao Bo, who was standing beside him, did not dare to retreat without getting the order from Emperor Xuan, so he had to stand there embarrassedly and take a nap.

While standing there in a daze, he couldn't help but wonder, in terms of energy, he was not as good as his Majesty, who was a few years older than before, was far inferior to His Majesty, who was a few years older than him.

Thinking of the "Immortal Pills" refined by Xianchang, Gao Bo couldn't help but feel a little shaken, but then he suddenly woke up.

Although the immortal pill is good, he does not have the blessings to enjoy, and his life span has been determined, especially human power can be reversed. If everyone can achieve enlightenment and immortality, then wouldn’t they all become immortal monsters in this world?

Thinking of this, Gao Bo couldn't help but turn his worries into joy, and the tiredness that just came to him also dissipated a lot.

He sighed in his heart, it seemed that this night was getting more and more difficult!

"How true do you think what Prime Minister Li said tonight is true or false?"

Emperor Xuan, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly asked a question, which was so shocked that Gao Bo shrank for a moment before he cheered up.

Gao Bo hardly thought about what Emperor Xuan meant, so he bowed and nodded slightly and said, "Telling lies in front of you, Your Majesty, is the crime of deceiving the king. Lord Li is an old minister in the court, how could he not know?"

Gao Bo looked up at Emperor Xuan, then smiled and said, "Besides, what can he get by telling lies and deceiving Your Majesty? Look at Old Nu, Lord Li is afraid he won't."

Emperor Xuan, who was standing in front of the window, turned around and glanced at Gao Bo, and a smile gradually appeared on his slightly cold face, but there was a bit of sarcasm in his smile.

"Ha, you can speak, and you don't want to offend either end. I didn't say anything, but you blocked my mouth!"

Hearing Emperor Xuan’s words, Gao Bo showed a panic look on his face, "Your Majesty, you are wronged by the old slave! The old slave is your slave, so where did you come from fear of offending Lord Li when you say it?"

"I'm the face of my uncle, you gave me. What does it have to do with Lord Li! What I said is only my own thoughts. Besides, if you doubt it, you may not spare the Li family's nephew."

Gao Bo's successive words made Emperor Xuan's face look much more gentle, and the smile in his eyes at least looked much more sincere than just now.

"I don't blame you. I asked, you answered. If I blame you, wouldn't it be too unreasonable?"

As he said that, Emperor Xuan waved his hand and chuckled.

Gao Bo, who was bowing and nodding, saw Emperor Xuan wavering his hand and bowing quickly, then straightened his waist.

This time, Gao Bo stopped responding and stood there with his eyes down.

Emperor Xuan turned around and looked at Gao Bo deeply, with an unknown cold light flashing in his eyes, and then he narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was weighing in his heart.

After a long time, Emperor Xuan sighed, "I am not without doubt. I can go through the past without investigating the sale of private salt by the Li family, but I am suspicious of the rice."

Gao Bo quickly looked up at Emperor Xuan and confirmed that Emperor Xuan really had a deep conversation with him, not just a simple test. Only then did he frown and think about this matter.

If Your Majesty asks this, it means that Your Majesty has suspicious of Prime Minister Li or the Second Highness, and even has doubts about the relationship between Prime Minister Li and the Second Highness.

Just a few months of companionship is not enough to prove that the relationship between the Second Highness and the Prime Minister's Mansion is innocent.

Gao Bo smiled helplessly in his heart, and didn't know what His Majesty thought at the beginning. His Highness's companions were all the sons of important officials in the court. It would be fine if they were not ordinary ministers, but they were powerful officials...

How can this prevent the powerful minister from getting ready to move?

With this kind of love for reading, there are many words for such a close relationship.

I just don’t know that His Majesty made such a decision at the beginning, but I thought that there would be a fate that will be today!

After thinking for a while, Gao Bo decided to pretend to be stupid to the end.

"Does your Majesty have any doubts about the origin of those grains?"

He asked this question without any suspicion of avoiding the matter. This grain is extremely precious and has been pressed down by Zhuoyang Kingdom, which has been cultivated. It has not leaked out in the past ten years.

Now it suddenly appears in Dayao. Although it is aged grains bought from farmers with a lot of money, it is also very thought-provoking.

Let’s not talk about it, but I can talk about the contribution of this grain. If it is always successful and it will be promoted and planted throughout Dayao in the future, it will be a huge contribution.

When the pie in the sky hit his head, he didn't believe that Prime Minister Li would take the initiative to give half of it to the Second Highness. What kind of friendship is this?

But if it is for power, then everything will be solved.

Haha, not only is he a greedy for power, but even the chief of the dynasty is like this.

It seems that no matter what identity you recognize and where you hold, you can probably not avoid the word "money and power"!

"Can't I doubt it?" Emperor Xuan asked in a voice.

"Ha, I never knew that my son was also a rich master. I thought that when I promised to exchange the technology of raising mulberry silkworms for grain seeds, the old man in Zhuoyang Kingdom refused, which shows how strict he was in dealing with the people."

"I can't think of how much the second brother spent to buy the Yishigu seed. He had previously made great contributions to the third brother's fiefdom and aid and disaster relief silver, but this time he was covered up tightly."

"Ha, I won't offer it sooner or later, but I won't offer it until I cut off his title. It was through Prime Minister Li, how can I believe this?"

"Does one or two treat me as fools?"

Seeing Emperor Xuan’s sign of getting angry, Gao Bo couldn’t help but feel a little cold sweat on his forehead. Perhaps he had a strange intention before, but just calmed down, he couldn’t help but feel guilty when he heard this.

Gao Bo quickly pressed his head down and then said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, please calm down! As old slaves see it, things are as if Prime Minister Li said. This grain is extremely precious and has been cultivated through complex seedlings. It is only now that I can see the results. I think it is understandable."

"If the Second Highness offered this item himself, it would probably make people think that the second Highness would be the one who colluded with Zhuoyang State. And at this time, if the Second Highness offered this item, someone would think that the Second Highness wanted to turn over with this."

Gao Bo, who was relishing, thought for a moment, and saw that Emperor Xuan had not spoken, then he slowly said: "If Your Majesty has doubts, why not call the Second Highness into the palace tomorrow to ask about the truth."

Emperor Xuan, who had frowned before, chuckled after hearing this.
