Kick out the general as soon as you are reborn

Late at night, the moon is high

Zhou Yanze had just returned from the Ministry of Justice. When he walked into the front yard, Butler Zhou hurried forward to take off the prince's cloak and hung it on the screen next to him.

Zhou Yanze raised his hand and let the servant take off the dragon robe on him. "Is the princess happy today? They are not bothering her anymore!"

Butler Zhou said respectfully, "They should be happy! They are all staying in the backyard today."

After Zhou Yanze took off his clothes, he sat on a chair and said coldly, "What do you mean by should? This is happiness. Can you be happy if you are not happy? Is it true that the backyard has to make up a story about her to make her unhappy? They are all troublesome."

Housekeeper Zhou said in embarrassment, "No, it's just that this doctor from the An Mansion went to treat Concubine Li's injuries today, and was beaten by Concubine Li. She begged the princess to seek justice at the gate of the palace! The princess took her to the main courtyard to deal with it!"

Zhou Yanze asked in confusion, "Doctor An, where did Doctor An come from? Isn't there only one doctor in the mansion?"

Butler Zhou raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. "She is the female doctor bestowed by the imperial concubine. She lives in the courtyard over there in the back garden. There are two doctors in the mansion now."

Zhou Yanze suddenly realized, "She! Isn't she just a little maid who signed a contract to sell herself? How dare she come to the gate of the palace and cause trouble? It's really a disgrace to the palace. Fortunately, the princess knows the general situation."

Butler Zhou said, "Your Highness, there are very few rules for the palace doctor in the mansion. After all, there was only one palace doctor before, and he was in the courtyard every day. Who knew that this new doctor was so troublesome that he dared to be disrespectful to the concubine and even complained to the princess."

Zhou Yanze frowned and said, "Teach them the rules properly, so as not to make a fool of themselves. It's true that people who come out of the palace are so unruly."

Thinking about the grievances Yanyan had suffered in the mansion, he said to Butler Zhou, "Go to the storeroom tomorrow and select a few more gifts for the princess to make her happy, so that she won't be unhappy."

Butler Zhou bowed respectfully and said, "As you command, I will prepare it right away."

Zhou Yanze waved his hand, signaling him to leave. He watched him walk away, then said to Xiaohe who was massaging his back, "Stop massaging. Bring me something to eat. The food in the Ministry of Justice is too bad. My stomach feels empty and uncomfortable."

Xiao He turned to the small stove, took down a casserole, poured the soup into a bowl, and placed a tray on the table in front of him. "Your Majesty, drink some soup first to warm your stomach. This is sent by the princess."

Zhou Yanze then picked up the spoon and drank it in small sips, nodding with satisfaction.

Xiao He saw that his master was drinking happily, so he turned around and walked to the door and said, "Go to the kitchen and bring some midnight snacks to the prince."

Upon hearing this, the two servants bowed and ran out.

After Zhou Yanze finished drinking the soup, he felt warm in his stomach and his mood improved a little.

Xiao He came over with a bowl of beef noodles and said, "Your Majesty, please try it."

Zhou Yanze smiled and said, "Where did this beef come from? It's hard to find, but it tastes good."

Xiao He smiled and said, "This was sent by Duke Liu to the princess. The princess feels sorry for you, so she distributed some to the front yard. The small kitchen was afraid you would be hungry, so she braised it early in the morning. It tastes just right now, so you can eat more." After saying that, she placed a plate of sliced ​​braised beef next to her.

Zhou Yanze ate beef with big mouthfuls and nodded vigorously, "Yue Zhang really loves Yanyan so much. He is still thinking about Yanyan even when eating a piece of meat." I also want to be better to Yanyan.

After eating the noodles, I felt warm in my heart. Then I walked into the inner room, looked at the sky outside, and did not go to the main courtyard to look for Yanyan, for fear of waking her up again.

I lay on the warm bed, hugged the quilt, tossed and turned for a long time before falling asleep.

When Xiao He saw that the prince had fallen asleep, she blew out the lights in the room, sat on the footstool beside him, and kept watch for the prince.

The sky was getting brighter, and a hint of paleness appeared on the horizon.

Liu Yanyan stretched out her hand and felt something cold beside her. She instantly came to her senses, pulled open the bed curtain, and let Yuzhu and Yuzhen help her put on the red official uniform.

"Yuzhu, didn't the prince return home last night?"

Yuzhu kept her hands busy and said with a smile, "The prince came back too late yesterday and rested in the front yard. Maybe he was afraid of disturbing the princess."

Knowing that he was sleeping in the front yard, Yanyan felt more comfortable. After taking the salt water handed to her by Yuye to rinse her mouth, she said, "It's better to sleep in the front yard, so as not to be woken up and unable to rest well."

She took the handkerchief handed to her by Yuye, washed her hands and face, then carefully applied the jade skin cream. Then she walked to the dressing table and sat down, looking at her beautiful figure in the bronze mirror.

Princess Yuzhu respectfully combed her hair, put it up, put on a short pure gold hairpin, and put on an official hat.

Liu Yanyan nodded with satisfaction, stood up and walked out, sitting upright in the main seat in the main hall.

Concubine Li and others stood up and saluted respectfully.

Butler Zhou came with a dozen servants, carrying trays. They all bowed and said, "Your servants pay their respects to the princess."

Liu Yanyan waved her hand to signal them to stand up. "Butler Zhou, why are you here so early today?"

Housekeeper Zhou stepped forward with a smile, and pushed Yuzhu aside, "The prince loves the princess, so he ordered me to bring some jewelry to her."

Liu Yanyan smiled with understanding, watching the servants kneeling in front of her one by one. There were a whole plate of jade necklaces, a whole plate of gemstone-inlaid bracelets, boxes of various gemstones, rolls of tribute cloth, and several rolls of flowing gauze. The snow-white fox fur cloak placed next to it was even more eye-catching.

She raised her delicate hand, gently brushed the fox fur in front of her eyes, and smiled faintly, "Thank you for the reward, Your Majesty."

Butler Zhou smiled and said, "As long as the princess likes it."

Liu Yanyan then said to Yuzhu, "Take these servants and go down to register the things that the prince has rewarded."

Yuzhu smiled and said, "I obey your command."

Liu Yanyan watched Yuzhu lead the others away, then she turned her attention to the kneeling Concubine Li and the others. Seeing them trembling, she smiled softly and said, "Sisters, please get up quickly. I was so happy just now that I forgot to call you. Sisters, don't think too much."

After Concubine Li stood up, her face twisted with jealousy, "The prince still loves the princess."

Concubine He and Concubine Li's faces also turned red with anger. They gritted their teeth and said, "It's because the prince cares about my sister. I don't even have the chance to see these things."

"Who said it wasn't true! The prince still loves his sister."

Liu Yanyan smiled and said, "This is not what you sisters think. This is because the prince saw that I was wronged in the mansion, so he sent me comfort. This is all thanks to you sisters! Otherwise, how could I get so much reward."

Concubine Li clenched the handkerchief in her hand jealously, and sat down on the chair suddenly. She almost jumped up in pain. She suppressed her anger and said with a smile, "Your Highness still cares about my sister. My sister is injured, so I will leave first."

Concubine He and Concubine Li covered their faces that were hit yesterday and said dissatisfiedly, "I will also take my leave first and will not disturb Sister Princess."

Seeing this, Liu Yanyan waved her hand and asked them to leave. Looking at their angry and anxious faces, the depression in her heart eased a little.
