Domineering Daming

At this time, I can't say anything to persuade, let alone drive Zhu Xu away.He said polite words twice, toasted wine twice, trying to ease the atmosphere, but Zhu Xu remained the same.

The atmosphere in the hall was very stiff, and everyone felt uncomfortable.

Except Zhu Xu.

Zhu Xu couldn't feel refreshed in his heart, and he had been holding back for more than half a year. He was unwilling to let go of such a refreshing moment for a long time.

"I fought with you!"

Zhu Xu thought to himself, sitting there with a majestic expression, looking around.

After half an hour, a servant came in and said in a moderate voice: "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager invites you to the Palace of Compassion."

Zhu Xu glanced at Zhu Youjian below, and it turned out that he was more serious than Zhu Xu just now. He glanced at his mouth, stood up and said, "Brother Huang, greet the ministers, I'm going to see the emperor's wife."

Zhu Youjian and all the ministers stood up and said, "Respectfully send the emperor off."

Zhu Xu could tell that this was the most sincere sentence he had heard from civil and military officials since he took the throne!

After leaving the Emperor's Palace, Zhu Xu let out a long sigh of depression and said loudly: "It's cool!"

Cao Huachun followed with a smile on his lips.

After all, the emperor is still young, and still has the heart of a child.

Compassionate Ninggong, Zhu Xu is like his own home, as soon as he stepped into the door, he smelled the fragrance, sat down on the table, and stretched out his hand to grab a dull white chicken leg.

Empress Dowager Zhang came out with Xiao Yongning in her arms, and said angrily, "It's been so long since I've been emperor, and I'm still messing around like this."

Knowing that he was talking about the matter of the Emperor's Palace just now, Zhu Xu smiled and began to bite the chicken leg.

Crisp and delicious, with a mouthful of aroma, Zhu Xu's eyes lit up, and he said, "Sister-in-law, Huan'er has learned new dishes again?"

"Yeah ah..."

Little Yongning was very happy every time he saw Zhu Xu, waving his white and tender little hands towards Zhu Xu, grinning and calling out with a smile.

"I don't have time to talk to you." Zhu Xu waved the drumstick.

Empress Dowager Zhang glared at him, picked up the handkerchief and gave it to him, saying: "Wipe your hands, eat well."

Zhu Xu gnawed all the chicken legs in his hand, wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and said to Empress Dowager Zhang with a smile: "It's the New Year's Eve, I'm just happy."

The Empress Dowager Zhang also knew that Zhu Xu hadn't had an easy time in the past six months. Thinking of his previous briskness, and now his face seemed to have wrinkles, she couldn't help but feel distressed, and said softly: "Your brother didn't work so hard. Help, don't try so hard."

Daming is from top to bottom, and few people are aware of the danger. With the national power of Daming, they don't think that anything can threaten the "national foundation".

Naturally, Zhu Xu would not talk about these unhappy things with Empress Dowager Zhang, so he nodded with a smile, and said, "Let's eat, little Yongning, come on, just tell us what you like, Uncle Huang will pick it up for you..."

Empress Dowager Zhang glared at him angrily again, shook her head, and said nothing, the family chatted while eating.

From Concubine Liu in Renshou Hall to Compassionate Palace, then to Jingyang Palace, and finally to Li Jieyu.

Empress Dowager Zhang looked at her and said, "Did you let her out of the palace? The Li family is considered prominent in the capital."

Zhu Xu was eating happily, he was stunned for a while, but he forgot about her, wiped his mouth, and said indifferently: "I will let her out of the palace later."

Empress Dowager Zhang shook her head again, and said: "You, you still don't understand human feelings. I'll call you over tomorrow. In a few days, I'll call the women in the capital to come in, so you can show your face and say a few words."

Zhu Xu secretly felt a headache, so he had to bite the bullet and agree.

Half a year of willfulness has serious consequences, and he needs to come forward to appease her. The wife's route is also a good channel.

Chapter 287

chirp~

Outside the palace city, one after another fireworks rose into the sky, exploding with a bang, brilliant and dazzling, as bright as day.

The palace was also full of joy, the servants and maids everywhere were also on vacation, and they gathered together to have a rare and joyous New Year.

There is Zhu Xu in the palace who forbids setting off fireworks, so it is pitch black and very quiet.

Wrapped in a thick cotton coat, Zhu Xu sat in the gazebo, making tea on his own, looking outside, feeling happy in his heart.

In any case, it is also the Chinese New Year, happy day is one day, tomorrow will be sad and tomorrow will be sad.

Cao Huachun stood beside him with a smile on his face.

Their Cao family is also considered a big family. There is a branch in the capital. A few days ago, they sent someone to ask him if he would go home for the New Year, but he declined.

Zhu Xu took a sip of tea, smashed his mouth, shook his head and sighed: "It's still not as good as sister Qingqing..."

Cao Huachun smiled and said: "Your Majesty, Mrs. Bi is pregnant now, otherwise she will be very happy to go to the palace to make tea for the Emperor."

Zhu Xu smiled when he heard the words, Yao Qingqing and Bi Maokang, the fateful mandarin ducks, had achieved a positive result under his strong pressure, which deserved his joy.

The two talked very little, and spent most of their time watching the gorgeous fireworks outside the palace.

After a while, a servant walked over quickly and said, "Your Majesty, Miss Li, please see me."

Zhu Xu turned his head to look over, paused, and said, "Let her come."

"Yes."

The servant trotted away, and Li Jieyu, who was wearing a long red cedar dress, appeared not far from the pavilion, bent over and said, "The daughter of the people has seen the emperor."

Zhu Xu waved his hand and said, "Can you make tea?"

Li Jieyu stood up and said, "I know a little bit."

Zhu Xu let out a sigh of relief and leaned back, and said with a smile, "Then you come, I don't cook well."

Li Jieyu looked at Zhu Xu, walked over, sat down opposite Zhu Xu, picked up the teapot, and skillfully fiddled with the tea set.

Zhu Xu looked at her, with bright eyes and bright teeth, a pretty face like a flower, a pair of slender hands like jade, every move has a quiet charm, it is a good age.

Zhu Xu's heart moved, and he said with a smile: "Miss Li, do you have someone you like?"

Li Jieyu paused, looked up at Zhu Xu, with a flash of surprise in his eyes.

There are rumors outside the palace that the new emperor is a bastard who loves money like his life, acts recklessly, does not listen to any advice, and does whatever he wants.

But these days in the palace, she knew from the orderly atmosphere in the palace that this couldn't be the situation that a bastard emperor should have.Then she made indirect remarks from the servants and maids, she vaguely understood that people outside the palace had misunderstood the young emperor in front of her, with a calmness and wisdom that did not match her age.

She listened to Zhu Xu's words, her pretty face remained unchanged, and she said softly: "Minutes are not married yet."

In Zhu Xu's view, being unmarried and having someone he likes are two different things, but from Li Jieyu's words, Zhu Xu knows that they are the same thing.
