"Sister, I have just returned from the State of Zhao. I am probably not used to the life in the State of Qin. If there is anything wrong with the food, accommodation, etc., sister, please don't be polite. Just tell me. I will arrange it for you." Properly…”

Zhao Lijiang didn't say a word, but sat in front of the desk, looking at Yue Ji in front of him with beaming expressions. Her delicate and flattering attitude really made her angry!

"Come here, bring me the jewelry I prepared for my sister, and some new sets of clothes!"

Yue Ji gave an order, and the servants brought a dazzling array of jewelry and gold ornaments and placed them in front of Zhao Lijiang.

"Sister, do you think these jewelry are enough? If you don't like any style, just tell me and I will get it changed."

What kind of posture is she showing me as the master of the harem?

Zhao Lijiang naturally didn't buy it, but he didn't break up with her face to face. Yue Ji looked gentle and graceful, and she gave her something so generously today. Didn't she just want to tell me that in the Qin harem, she was the one in charge? ? !

"My sister gave me so many jewelry. I'm really flattered."

Of course, you have to say the words in the scene. Even if you bite the back socket, these few words of thank you... can still be said.

Zhao Lijiang stood up and looked at Yue Ji in front of him, his tone was a bit sinister.

"My sister is really the only one doted on in the harem. With so many gold, silver and jewels, it seems that the king gave her a lot of rewards in the past, right?"

Yue Ji was calm and her tone was still gentle and respectful.

"No, it's just that your Majesty took pity on my sister, so you pampered me a little bit."

She glanced inside the room and saw that Ying Zheng was not there.

"Where is Zheng'er? Why isn't he here? The Qin Palace is very big, with a few palaces and pavilions. If Zheng'er is not accompanied by a familiar servant, it will be easy for Zheng'er to get lost when he first arrives."

Hearing her calling her son's name affectionately one after another, Zhao Lijiang was naturally even more unhappy.

"Zheng'er has Wang Jian and Mengtian accompanying him, so he doesn't need to worry about his sister."

Yue Ji noticed something was wrong with Zhao Lijiang's tone, and then said

"Last night... was my sister's first night in the palace. You and your Majesty have not seen each other for many years. Your Majesty should have come to accompany your sister last night, but unfortunately, your Majesty was happy at the banquet during the day and drank a few more glasses of wine, so you felt a little unwell at night. If you feel unwell, I'm afraid to go to my sister's place, for fear of causing trouble to my sister. I take care of your daily life, and my sister is not familiar with it yet. If she becomes familiar with it in the future, she will be able to take care of her easily."

Both her words and her words showed that she was deeply favored by Zi Chu. Zhao Lijiang looked at Yue Ji with his sharp eyes and looked at her big watery eyes. He was really loved by everyone.

Zhao Lijiang sneered in his heart, it didn't matter whether he was favored or not. What matters now is that my Zheng'er can sit on the throne of the prince, and everything else...none of it matters!

"Sister, I appreciate your kindness today. If nothing happens to your sister, I would also like to take a nap."

"Yes, I need to get more rest. The road back to Qin is difficult. It's really hard for my sister."

Yue Ji resigned, but just as she walked to the door, Lu Buwei came.

"Lu Xiangguo."

Yue Ji greeted him with a smile. Lu Buwei was surprised that she would be at Zhao Lijiang's residence. Although he was curious about whether the two people would be tit for tat just now, he immediately saluted Yue Ji respectfully.

"See Yue Empress."

"Lü Xiangguo has rescued your eldest son from the State of Zhao this time, and also rescued his former favorite concubine. This is a great achievement. I wonder what your reward will be?"

"I don't dare, a humble minister. These are all things that a minister should do. How can I ask for credit?"

Lu Buwei bent over and did not dare to look directly at Yue Ji, but how could Yue Ji ignore this problem when he met Lu Buwei in Zhao Lijiang's palace.

"Once upon a time... I heard your Majesty say that my sister was once the concubine in Prime Minister Lu's palace. It was because your Majesty fell in love with my sister at first sight that Lu Xiangguo reluctantly gave up his love and gave his concubine to you, in exchange for the current Prime Minister. position."

These words humiliated the three people. Although Lu Buwei was embarrassed, the woman in front of him was the monarch's favorite woman. Lu Buwei did not dare to offend her and could only admit it with a smile.

"It was more than ten years ago."

Yue Ji seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and then said

"Now my sister is your Majesty's concubine Zhao. She is no longer the concubine who was in the State of Zhao. There are differences between men and women as concubines in the palace of Prime Minister Lu... Prime Minister Lu, you should also respect yourself."

Yue Ji's condescending attitude, Lu Buwei naturally knew the meaning behind her words. Although this woman seemed harmless, every time she said gentle and kind words, there was another meaning mixed with it. She was not as aggressive as Zhao Lijiang. Going straight back and forth, Lu Buwei knew that this man was quite deep in the city.

Will she just watch Ying Zheng take the position of crown prince without taking any action? How can this be!

But in the current situation, it was naturally difficult for Lu Buwei to break up with her. If this woman made trouble in front of the king and complained, not only would he and Zhao Lijiang not get any good results, but they would also implicate Ying Zheng.

Lu Buwei endured this tone and still said respectfully

"The humble minister is here today because he was ordered by the king to call the young master Ying Zheng. There is nothing more."

"Then you don't have to go in. Sister just said that Zheng'er is accompanied by Meng Tian. Now he is probably going to the archery range to practice his sword riding on horseback."

She had said so, and it was even more unreasonable for her to see Zhao Lijiang again. Lu Buwei thought for a moment and nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, yes... then Wei Chen will go to the archery range now."

It wasn't until Yue Ji led many followers to leave that Zhao Lijiang's anger completely exploded!

She overturned the silk and satin sent by Yue Ji and knocked the jewelry to the ground. The palace was immediately in a mess.

The newly arranged maids had never seen such a fiery empress. They were all so frightened that they did not dare to speak out. They could only watch Zhao Lijiang insulting Yue Ji.

"What is this vixen showing off? Coming here early in the morning to cause trouble for me? Doesn't it mean that she is a little favored? She dares to come in front of me and pretend to be a royal queen! She is really making people laugh!"

The more Zhao Lijiang thought about it, the angrier he became. He grabbed a palace maid at random and shouted angrily.

"Why hasn't Lu Xiangguo come yet? Didn't he say that he came to lead Zheng'er to study?!"

The slave who was caught was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she responded hesitantly.

"Reporting to the empress, just now Lu Xiangguo arrived at the gate of the palace and happened to meet empress Yue Ji. The two of them said something unknown, and Lu Xiangguo turned around and left."

"Damn Lu Buwei! Could it be that he has switched sides?! Could it be that he also fell into that foxy seduction?!"

Just as Zhao Li was angrily taking the things given by Yue Ji to vent his anger, Wang Jian, who had accompanied Ying Zheng to practice swordsmanship, came back and happened to see this scene.

No need to think too much, you already know why

"If I were the empress, I would never be so angry."

Wang Jian picked up a pearl hairpin on the ground

"Not only did she not get angry, she even accepted the gifts from Empress Yueji."

This seventeen-and-a-half-year-old boy actually dares to pretend to be all-rounded in front of me!
