I will never be Renzong

Chapter 126 Lychees Are Delicious

"Squeak squeak!"

In midsummer, the cicadas on the trees keep singing, just because their singing voice can attract the most beautiful female cicadas.

In Yanfu Palace, Zhao Zhen was lying on a wicker chair with his eyes closed and meditating. Two palace maids on the side were holding huge cattail fans and stirring rhythmically.

"Officials! Open your mouth!"

A coquettish voice came, Zhao Zhen opened his mouth obediently, and then a crystal clear lychee that had been peeled off its shell slipped into his mouth.

"Yeah! It's delicious!"

The frozen lychee tastes sour and sweet, delicate and smooth, and the hint of coolness can't help but dispel Zhao Zhen's inner restlessness.

"Officials! These are fresh lychees sent by Lingnan!"

The beauty Ren Qing'er stretched out her hand to catch Zhao Zhen's vomited nuclei, and threw it into an empty bowl aside.

"Yiqi Hongchen concubine smiled, no one knew it was lychees, I never thought that I could taste such delicious lychees!"

Zhao Zhen opened his eyes, looked at the lychees on the table and smiled.

"Thrush! Can this frozen lychee be given to the big lady or the little lady?"

Zhao Zhen asked the thrush not far away.

"Go back to the official's house! The slave's family has already sent it away. The queen mother disliked it for being too cold, so she let the slave's house be passed on to Mrs. Qi Guo. Concubine Yang likes it very much!"

Thrush hurriedly replied.

"Has Li Shunrong delivered it?"

Zhao Zhen said again.

"Go back to the official's house! The slave's house has already sent the palace people to send it away!"

Thrush hurriedly replied.

"That's good! That's right! I suddenly remembered that Madam Qi's son, Man Yue, didn't seem to have given me any rewards!"

Zhao Zhen asked suddenly.

"Go back to the official house! The Queen Mother has already rewarded you!"

Thrush hurriedly replied.

"In that case, you go to Zhongshu, pass on my oral order, and ask them to draft an edict, saying that Uncle Anyuan Liu Congde has made meritorious service to the imperial court. According to the system, his son Liu Yongnian will inherit the title of Baron, and now he is specially appointed Viscount Ping'an."

After all, Liu Yongnian was his first son. Although he was an illegitimate son, Zhao Zhen still wanted to give him the best. If it wasn't for the fact that he was still in his infancy, Zhao Zhen would have wanted to seal him as his marquis!

"promise!"

Huamei responded and took the order to go.

When Zhao Zhen was in a daze, Ren Qing'er put another lychee into his mouth, but this time Zhao Zhen's mouth was a little too big, and accidentally caught the beauty's delicate fingers.

"what!"

The beauty was in pain, and she yelled hastily, Zhao Zhen finally realized, let go of her mouth quickly, and grabbed Ren Qing'er's little hand, only to see a row of shallow teeth marks on her fingers.

Zhao Zhen looked at his masterpiece, blew it distressedly, and said, "Qing'er! Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt! The officials! It's all Qing'er's carelessness!"

Ren Qing'er shook her head repeatedly and said, picking up another lychee and preparing to continue peeling it.

Zhao Zhen looked at the lychee skins in the bowl, and suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly said, "Qing'er! You keep peeling them for me to eat? Why don't you eat them?"

Although he dozed off, it was clear how many lychees entered his mouth.

"Officials! This is the tribute that the Royal Chamber of Commerce dedicated to the officials. The queen and the concubine sisters have not been able to eat it. How dare the concubines eat it?"

Ren Qing'er said cautiously.

Zhao Zhen suddenly snatched the half-plucked lychee from his hand and waved it in front of his eyes.

"Then Qing'er told me, do you want to eat?"

Ren Qing'er replied without raising her head: "I don't want to!"

"Tell the truth, otherwise I would go to your place tonight!"

Zhao Zhen said pointedly.

Ren Qing'er thought of the toughness of the official family last night, but now her legs are still a little weak, if the official family comes again tonight.
"Want to eat!"

"Children who tell the truth will be rewarded!"

Zhao Zhen peeled the lychee as he spoke, and then stuffed it into his mouth under the bewildered gaze of the beauty, and then kissed that alluring little mouth with the beauty's exclamation.

"Is it tasty?"

After a while, Zhao Zhen just let go, looking at the blushing beauty with a small mouth and asked.

"good to eat!"

Ren Qing'er blushed and replied in a low voice.

As Zhao Zhen spoke, he pushed aside another lychee and said, "How about doing it again?"

"Official! Is there any servant here?"

Ren Qing'er said with a red face.

Zhao Zhen leaned close to her ear and said softly, "Why are you shy? Didn't you see you so shy last night?"

After finishing speaking, Zhao Zhen bent down and planned to repeat the old trick.

"Cough, cough, cough~"

There was a cough, and Ren Qing'er hurriedly pushed Zhao Zhen away. Then when he saw the queen and the concubine coming, he stood up in panic and saluted them.

The beauty suddenly moved away, and Zhao Zhen almost fell headlong on the chair. When he stood up, he saw a trace of anger on the face of Empress Cao Danshu, while the imperial concubine Li Binger looked as cold as ice.

"Danshu and cousin are here! Come! Sit down!"

Zhao Zhen patted the brocade stool beside him.

Seeing this, Li Binger sat on the brocade stool opposite Zhao Zhen, while Cao Danshu went directly to the brocade stool that Zhao Zhen was pointing at and sat down. Ren Qinger had a lychee in his mouth. No, I had to obediently stand aside with puffed cheeks.

"Danshu! You are familiar with all the affairs in the palace!"

Zhao Zhen asked with a smile.

Cao Danshu replied: "Although the concubine is a queen, she is young after all. There are many and complicated things in the harem. It is difficult for the concubine to learn all of them in a short while, but fortunately, sister Bing'er is there to help. Nothing went wrong, the officials don’t need to worry about it! It’s time to comfort Sister Bing’er!”

Li Bing'er hurriedly replied: "The Queen is talented and intelligent, and can do anything at once. I'm just helping you from the side. It's all part of my job, and I shouldn't be rewarded!"

"Cousin is doing business, I don't worry!"

Zhao Zhen smiled at Li Binger.

Cao Danshu has been in the palace for half a year. Although she is still young, the life in the palace for the past six months has given her a lot of thought. The imperial concubine Li Binger has a dignified appearance, profound knowledge, and easy to get along with. She can also talk to herself. Moreover, among the empresses and concubines, they are very mature both physically and mentally, so they have taught Cao Danshu a lot, but for some reason, the officials have never been lucky enough to visit her.

The talented Zhang Yingying had an outstanding appearance and was unparalleled, but she was also a bit arrogant, but she was very favored. The official family stayed with her most of the time, but it was a pity that she never became pregnant.

The beauty Ren Qing'er's appearance was slightly inferior to that of Zhang Yingying, but she was cute and pitiful, so she was favored. However, according to the palace people, she seemed to be unable to please the officials every time she went to bed.

The talented Liu Lanxiang was originally the most beloved concubine of the official family, but for some reason, in the past six months, the official family had favored her, but the queen mother relied on her very much.

In addition to the outer palace, there is a mature and beautiful woman named Shen Moran. I heard that she is the person in charge of the Royal Chamber of Commerce. She is the adopted daughter of the late prime minister Wang Qinruo. She is also a woman from the official family. After all, the official family directly called her into the palace last time. And also stayed in Funing Hall.

"Official! Is this lychee delicious?"

Cao Danshu was thinking, and suddenly glanced at the litchi on the table and asked Zhao Zhen.
