Kick out the general as soon as you are reborn

forecourt

Zhou Yanze looked at Butler Zhou and said, "Go and bring me some wine and food."

Butler Zhou said worriedly, "Your Highness, drinking is harmful to your health."

Zhou Yanze waved his hand with a cold face, "Go get it."

Butler Zhou then said respectfully, "I obey your command."

Zhou Yanze saw the people walking away, and the coldness on his face subsided. He secretly complained, "I don't know who killed the child in Li Shiqi's belly. I still have to investigate. At least this is my first fetus in public."

Steward Zhou brought a servant with him, brought over a dozen dishes and a pot of wine, and said, "My Lord, please drink less. You are still young and you will have children in the future."

Zhou Yanze smiled bitterly and said, "Find out who did it. I don't believe that Concubine Li would be so shameless as to make Concubine Li have a miscarriage by forcing her to kneel."

Butler Zhou said respectfully, "I obey your command. I will find out who did this."

Zhou Yanze then waved his hand to signal them to leave, and ate and drank alone in the room.

Liu Yanyan pushed the door open and saw his dejected face. She couldn't help but say, "Don't be sad. Eat some food. Drinking alone won't do!"

Zhou Yanze looked at her and said, "Yanyan, why are you here? Did Butler Zhou invite you? Don't worry, I'm fine."

Liu Yanyan looked into his deep eyes and couldn't help but said, "Don't think too much. Butler Zhou was worried about you, so he went to the main courtyard to invite me."

Her slender waist was embraced, and her whole body fell in his arms. She looked up at him and said, "Let me go, and eat first! You've been so busy all day and rushed back in a hurry, you must not have eaten well." After saying that, she picked up the soup on the table and fed it to his mouth.

Zhou Yanze drank the soup tenderly and lovingly, took the bowl and placed it on the table, hugged Yanyan's waist distressedly, "Yanyan still cares about me."

Yanyan felt the hand tightening around her waist and said to him, "I'm not very good at comforting people. I'll drink a little with you today!"

Zhou Yanze hugged her, poured out a glass of wine, and gently fed it to her mouth, "Yanyan, you still care about me! But why didn't I know you could drink?"

Yanyan opened her lips slightly, took a sip of wine, coughed a few times and said, "I just want to accompany you and don't want you to be sad all the time." After saying this, she couldn't help but feel hot in her ears.

Zhou Yanze was touched as he hugged Yanyan, took back the wine glass in his hand and said, "If you don't know how to drink, don't drink. Drinking is harmful to your health."

Leaning her head gently on his broad shoulders, Yanyan said softly, "I don't drink, and you don't drink either."

Zhou Yanze hugged her and said, "Okay, don't drink. Eat more vegetables. These vegetables are delicious."

Seeing that he was calm, Yanyan picked up some food for him and said, "Try it, it's delicious."

Just then, my stomach rumbled and my face turned red.

Zhou Yanze then put Yanyan down and said to her, "Yanyan, you should eat more too. You look so hungry. If Yue Zhang knew, he would probably make trouble for me."

After saying that, he picked up a lot of dishes for Yanyan and watched her eat quietly.

Yanyan's cheeks were hot. She ate the food in her bowl in small bites and stood up to leave. "I'll leave first."

Zhou Yanze's eyes were full of reluctance. Thinking of the concubine Li in the backyard who had just had a miscarriage, he nodded slightly and watched Yanyan leave.

After seeing Yanyan walking away, he scattered wine all over the room, started to act crazy, pushed over a chair, fell to the ground, looking distraught.

Upon hearing the voice, Butler Zhou hurriedly stood up, helped the prince up, and walked into the house.

Hall of Qinzheng

Emperor Hongda put down the pen he was using to review the memorials, looked at the secret guards kneeling below and said, "Go ahead!"

The secret guard knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, the only heir in the Regent's Palace has been dealt with."

"Oh? Are you sure?"

The secret guard said firmly, "Your Majesty, I am sure that I hid on the roof and saw Concubine Li had a miscarriage. After the regent dealt with it, he was very sad. He went back to the front yard and drank a lot of wine. The whole house was full of alcohol and he even pushed over the chair."

Emperor Hongda sneered and muttered in his heart, "No matter how powerful he is, he can't sit on the throne without an heir. Now he can't compete with the other princes for it." He coughed violently a few times, and a mouthful of blood was about to gush out, but he swallowed it and waved his hand to signal the secret guards to leave.

The secret guard then jumped out of the window and left.

Eunuch Li hurried forward to calm the emperor down, "Your Majesty, this is a good thing. Please calm down and take care of yourself!"

Emperor Hongda took the tea, took a sip and said, "It's all old problems. I know my body. You! Don't worry about it."

Eunuch Li was very distressed and said, "Your Majesty, you are the true dragon emperor. You will live forever."

Emperor Hongda chuckled, "That's all fake. I'll be satisfied if I can live a few more years. You don't have to say nice things to coax me." After saying that, he took the pill handed to him by Eunuch Li and swallowed it, then looked at the starry sky outside for a long time without saying a word.

The Fifth Prince's Palace

The fifth prince was painting blooming lotus flowers on rice paper with a smile on his face. Hearing the voice from the beam, he said lightly, "Come down!" and put down the wolf-hair brush in his hand.

The secret guard An Yi stepped forward and saluted respectfully, "Master, I have something to report."

The fifth prince said calmly, "Tell me what's going on! I want to hear what has you rushing to report."

An Yi said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Li in the Regent's Palace had a miscarriage today. The Regent was just getting drunk in the house!"

The fifth prince smiled meaningfully. "Good, good. A prince without any children can now live peacefully as a prince. This is really a good thing! Who did this? Have you found out?"

An Yi said, "It was Concubine Li who made her kneel as punishment, which caused Concubine Li to have a miscarriage."

"Let's continue investigating. Someone else must have had a hand in this, otherwise how could the abortion be so easy? I want to see which of my two brothers has the ambition to compete with me for the throne."

After saying this, he coldly watched the secret guard leave, picked up the pen and continued to draw the lotus under his hand, dipped it in red and drew a big cross on it.

princess mansion

Gu Beichen looked at the sleeping princess, then quietly got up, rubbed his knees that were aching from kneeling, went to the window to take the flying pigeon, saw the contents of the letter, smiled coldly, and put the letter on the candle flame to burn it.

I thought to myself, "Since Liu Yanyan is not dead, it is good to kill the only heir of the Regent. They colluded with each other and harmed my general's mansion. It is good to teach them a lesson now. It is a pity that Liu Yanyan is too cautious and did not fall for it."

At this moment, the eldest princess' voice rang out, "Prince Consort, Prince Consort, where have you been? Why is there a foul smell in the room? Is there a fire?"

Gu Beichen opened the window in shock, turned around and knelt down at the princess's feet. "I just had to go to the bathroom, and I didn't smell anything bad. Princess, did you smell it wrong?"

The eldest princess looked at him coldly, and slapped his flattering face, "I'm telling you, if you don't play tricks, I can spare your life if you behave yourself." Otherwise, I will kill you in minutes.

Gu Beichen knelt on the ground and kowtowed, his eyes full of hatred and his face full of pity. "Princess, Princess, you must believe me. I am the most loyal. You must believe me."

The maid next to the Grand Duke helped him up and stepped on his hand. "You'd better keep your word."

The maid also looked at him with disdain, as if he were a stink bug.

Gu Beichen was so angry that he secretly swore, "When I gain power, I will make sure that you will die without a burial place."
