Quick Travel: Save the poor little villain

Chu Qingqing urgently found Jinchen and asked hurriedly after all the palace maids and eunuchs left without even caring about etiquette.

"The prince has agreed on your behalf to the ceremony of enthroning the queen after you return to the palace next month. Do you know that?"

Jinchen, who was lying on the bed like a salted fish, was so scared that he almost choked on the watermelon.

"What did you say!"

Jinchen stood up from his supine position, his eyes wide open, "How come I don't know about this?!"

He was even ready to grant Chu Qingqing a marriage and an official title!

Seeing that Jinchen was unaware of the situation, Chu Qingqing heaved a sigh of relief, not even bothering to sit down. "I just heard the news from my father, who said that the Ministry of Rites has already started preparations, and this time it will definitely be foolproof."

"The prince knows you clearly... why did you agree to make him the queen?"

Jinchen walked back and forth with his hands behind his back, and his tall figure looked a little decadent.

"I want to know too! No wonder Zhiwei looked so strange these past two days. Maybe she is harboring some bad intentions."

Yu Huayao could make him so jealous, so why was he so eager to agree to establish the queen?

There is a problem, there must be a problem.

"Liu Feng! Go and get the Regent!"

Liu Feng Fuchu opened the door and said, "Your Majesty... the officials from the Ministry of Rites are here to take measurements for you and Miss Chu."

Jinchen: "..."

Chu Qingqing: "...Can a minister refuse?"

"Let them in." Jin Chen was a little angry and whispered a few words to Chu Qingqing.

Chu Qingqing took a deep breath, "You... are really brave."

But at least I didn't refuse.

This scene fell into the eyes of several officials who entered one after another. Even though the emperor and empress had a deep relationship, they felt relieved.

I’m afraid that Your Majesty will not cooperate, and then no one will be able to explain themselves.

Whenever I get close to Your Majesty, I always feel a chill, which is more helpful than getting close to ice.

The junior official shuddered, secretly gathered up his sleeves and continued to measure.

Jinchen felt depressed until dinner.

He still doesn't want to be in power now, and all matters are still managed by Jie Zhiwei. Even in the palace, there are many affairs to be responsible for. After Mu Zhongzheng's downfall, many officials have to be held accountable, so he has been extremely busy these days.

Normally at this time, the two of them would send the servants away and talk to each other in private. Even though Jinchen was picky about food and didn't want to eat much, they had to coax him.

But today, both of them were silent.

Jinchen looked at the person who picked up food for him with subtle eyes, deliberately not eating it. He picked and chose for a long time and after the meal, there was still half a bowl of food left.

Xie Zhiwei sighed and put down his chopsticks, "Your Majesty, you need to take care of your health."

"I won't."

Jinchen threw his chopsticks down and said, "Someone, get out!"

"Don't come in." Xie Zhiwei said coldly.

The maids guarding the door: "..."

Xie Zhiwei stood up and walked to Jinchen's side, sitting on his lap and coaxing him: "I know you are angry, but you can't be angry with your body. I will explain it to you after dinner, okay?"

Jinchen continued to be fierce, letting him sit there without hugging him, "No, either you tell me now or wait until the day of my wedding."

These words were meant to provoke him, and Xie Zhiwei could hear it, and his whole body ached and felt sour.

"Well, I'll tell you the reason."

Xie Zhiwei caressed Jinchen's eyebrows, her fingertips moving like a little snake crawling, sticky and intimate.

"After weighing the pros and cons, getting the support of the Shangshu Ling will make your prestige in the court even greater. At that time, you will be able to control the country without the blessing of this minister."

After Jinchen heard the first half of the sentence, the depression in his heart turned into anger, "Is this the reason?"

lie.

Still lying at this time.

Jin Chen held him down and bit his upper lip, his eyes narrowed dangerously, "I don't want to quarrel with you over this issue again. If it can't be resolved today, I will no longer care about it."

"Is it because of the miracle drug, has side effects or is it useless?"

Xie Zhiwei's fingers clasped behind Jinchen's waist tightened, but her face remained calm. She just kissed Jinchen wetly, "No, Your Majesty..."

"As long as the person you favor is still me, what difference does it make if there are just one more queen?"

Jin Chen sneered, "The difference, I'll tell you what the difference is, the history books will only record the emperor and empress, and you can only be the regent."

"The Queen will be my only partner recognized by all ministers and people."

Xie Zhiwei: “…”

He paused in kissing, a cruel smile silently appeared on his gorgeous face, and he slowly held Jinchen's face, letting the pain in his heart grow and fester.

"Your Majesty, I will not let this happen."

Xie Zhiwei leaned closer and pressed her forehead against Jinchen's. The corners of her eyes were red, and her long, moist eyelashes blinked slightly, brushing against the tip of Jinchen's nose. Her voice was hoarse and so soft that it was almost inaudible.

"Queen or not, you belong to me."

Jinchen was silent for a long time, and then sighed.

In this case, he had to take some action.

-

Officials from the Ministry of Rites originally thought that coming to the palace to escape the summer heat would be a great thing, but it turned out that they were the busiest during these days!

Not only did he have to prepare the wedding attire for the Emperor and Empress, but also various ceremonial matters for the wedding. I don't know what His Majesty was thinking, but he actually agreed to the proposals of various ministers and officials at this juncture, and agreed to all the princes who were mentioned.

He even started to confer various titles based on the portraits that were submitted to him.

"This one looks good. Please serve me."

"This one is given the title of noble, and this one is given the title of noble lord."

"There is also Yu Guishi, who will be promoted to Imperial Noble Lord and given a title... let him choose it himself."

“This…” The portrait was thrown away. “You are so crazy. You even sent a 14-year-old here! Get lost!”

The hall was filled with portraits, making it look like a large-scale concubine selection ceremony. Every time Jinchen said something, the ceremonial officer had to take note of it. After all, His Majesty had ordered that the plaques be made as soon as possible.

After Jinchen finished flipping the last one, he asked Gao Kun beside him, "That's all, no more?"

Gao Kun: "...No more, Your Majesty, do you have anyone you like?"

If girls are included, of course there are some, but the news that His Majesty is fond of men has spread throughout the Great Jin Kingdom, and no official is willing to send his daughters to the harem to suffer.

Not all of the remaining men are willing to enter the palace to serve His Majesty. They would be courting death if they compete with the Regent for men.

"Very good." Jin Chen threw away the brush, knocked on the table and said, "Send a copy of each portrait I selected to the young uncle. He is my elder, so of course he needs to review it."

Gao Kun: “…”Me?

Your Majesty, I still want to live and serve you!

"Yes, I will send someone to do it right away."

Half an hour later.

Xie Zhiwei, who was still reviewing memorials, saw a thick stack of portraits brought to him by the young eunuch.

"What is this?" Xie Zhiwei asked puzzledly.

The young eunuch held the gold in his pocket and risked his life to reply: "Your Majesty, these are the servants selected by His Majesty."

Xie Zhiwei's hand holding the brush trembled, and ink drops fell on his sleeves, "What did you say?!"

The young eunuch closed his eyes and made up his mind, and continued: "His Majesty said... since it is a grand wedding, it is better to double the happiness. You are his elder, so... so I sent it to you for your review."

Xie Zhiwei: “…”
