Partial hall, doors and windows claustrophobic.The little eunuch guarding the gate outside the hall shivered, looked up, and saw that the sky was gray and cloudy.Little did they know, the inner room of the palace was also shrouded in dark clouds.

Carefully put Zhao Zhen's hand away, Imperial Physician Dong didn't have time to pack up the medical equipment, Xue Liang dragged him aside to ask about the situation.Imperial Physician Dong shook his head and said, "I really can't see anything unusual about the dragon's body. I've tried everything, but I can't detect any poison in your Majesty's body." Chao Zhanzhao said, "Guard Zhan, you can really be sure that His Majesty has been poisoned. ?"

"It shouldn't be wrong. 'Red Flame Sand' is a strange poison, without any poisonous characteristics, even if it is probed with a silver needle, it will not turn black. 'Red Flame Sand' attacks every seven days, When the attack occurred, the body was burning, hot and painful, and it was extremely tormented. It was not until July 49, when it invaded the whole body, that it really gathered into poison and killed people. The only appearance of "red flame sand" is that it will appear in the palm of the poisoned person. There is a red sand mole." After saying that, he glanced at Zhao Zhen's left hand.

Imperial Physician Dong stroked his beard and thought, "I've never heard of such a strange poison, so how did Guard Zhan know about it?"

"Let's not hide from the imperial doctor. The family teacher and the head of the Xuecheng faction are close friends, and I have seen the outbreak of the poison with my own eyes. That's why Zhan Zhao made this assertion when he saw His Majesty's symptoms and the red sand mole on his palm just now. "

Xue Liang was overjoyed when he heard the words, clasped his palms together and said: "Your Majesty is really blessed. If so, Zhan Huwei, hurry up to Xuecheng to send the medicine to save His Majesty."

Zhan Zhao pondered for a while: "To detoxify 'Red Flame Sand' not only requires a unique antidote, but also must be able to be completely detoxified by someone from the Syracuse School who can detoxify this poison with a special mentality and true energy. When people come, it won't help."

"So troublesome?" Xue Liang muttered.

Imperial Physician Dong interjected: "Eunuch Xue, now is not the time to be bothered, the most important thing is to consider how to save His Majesty.

Xue Liang nodded in agreement. Seeing Zhan Zhao's pensive face, he couldn't help but ask, "Guard Zhan, what are you thinking?"

"I was wondering if such a situation should be reported to the Queen Mother."

Xue Liang was shocked when he heard the words: "Are you crazy to show up as a guard?! If the Queen Mother finds out, she won't take your head off right away. Have you forgotten how you got that thirty imperial staff?" Suddenly, he realized that he was crying It was too loud, so he hurriedly opened the door of the inner room and looked outside, only to confirm that there was no one in the outer hall, he closed the door again.He said: "Why do you think the little eunuchs are intimidating those little eunuchs outside the door to keep their mouths shut? Everyone knows that His Majesty has always valued you, how could he just watch the Queen Mother kill you? Your Majesty has already had a quarrel with the Queen Mother to save you. They broke up unhappily, and if you do it again, don’t you want to tear your face apart?” Touching his cheek, he complained, “I don’t know how many more slaps I’m going to get. So please do me a favor and don’t hurt others or yourself.”

"Hey, Mr. Xue, you don't understand now. Zhan Huwei has good intentions." Dong Taiyi said: "After all, paper can't cover the fire, especially in this palace, there is no impenetrable wall. If such a big event happens, no matter what No matter how you hide it, it will fall into the ears of the Queen Mother sooner or later. At that time, you will be charged with not reporting the knowledge, let alone Zhanwei, you and I will die."

Xue Liang opened his mouth wide, too scared to speak.

"Eunuch Xue, don't worry. Before saving His Majesty, the Empress Dowager will not be so impulsive as to kill me. After all, Zhan Zhao must bear the responsibility of going to Xuecheng to ask for medicine. And sending a party to Xuecheng is related to His Majesty's safety." , need to carefully weigh one or two, so it is better to report to the Queen Mother earlier and ask her to make a decision."

Imperial Physician Dong looked at Zhan Zhao with gratitude.In fact, he knew that the reason why Zhan Zhao was so eager to push himself into the tiger's mouth was entirely to let them get rid of the relationship.Indeed, it would be fine if Zhan Zhao could save His Majesty in the end, but if anything goes wrong, everyone involved in it would surely die.Although he is grateful, he does not have the ability and courage to act on behalf of His Majesty.There was chaos in the harem after the assassination, and when he checked the injury on His Majesty's shoulder and asked Zhan Zhao, but was told that His Majesty blocked the dart for him, a thousand thoughts suddenly surged in his heart.As the lord of a country, he can be so disregarding of life and death for others. The relationship between His Majesty and Zhan Zhao is not as simple as the relationship between monarch and minister. It seems that there is a deeper relationship in it. As for what it is, it is a young person's business.After all, he is old, and older people always know how to protect themselves wisely.

Imperial Physician Dong said in a deep voice: "If you want to report to the Queen Mother, you must be quick, slow, and when His Majesty wakes up, it will be too late."

Xue Liang nodded when he heard the words, and planned to go out of the inner room to the gate of the hall to instruct a young eunuch to report to Chong'en Palace, then he turned around and heard a familiar voice behind him. "Why is it too late when I wake up?"

Looking back, seeing Zhao Zhen struggling to sit up with his forehead in his hands, Xue Liang was so surprised that he forgot what he was going to do, and hurried to the bedside to serve him, while responding to Zhao Zhen's questioning, he explained to Zhao Zhen the details of the previous conversation. Zhao Zhen listened.After he finished speaking, Zhao Zhen had already sat on the dragon seat behind the desk, and came back to his senses.He looked at Zhan Zhao dully, and with just a touch of his eyes, he saw Zhan Zhao's front robe lifted and he knelt down happily.

Zhao Zhen was stunned: "What is this?" He was condescending, but Zhan Zhao kept his head extremely low, and could hardly see his expression, but he always felt that he could vaguely sense Zhan Zhao's thoughts.

Was he blaming himself for hurting him?

His expression couldn't help but soften, and another conflicted emotion formed on his brows.

To be honest, he no longer knew whether it was right or wrong for him to rush to save people on impulse.Zhan Zhao suffered a lot for this, and he never thought that the situation would develop to the point of burning himself.Now even though he is full of hatred for those assassins, he can't express it.After all, he was doing it to help Zhan Zhao. If the poisoning incident was exposed after an imperial decree was issued and Zhan Zhao would be punished again, wouldn't his actions and intentions become a joke?

He thought, he knew what to do.

With a clear mind, the young emperor raised his hand and said, "Get up."

Zhan Zhao didn't speak, nor did he get up.

"It was I who told you to get up, why don't you dare?" Seeing that Zhan Zhao suddenly looked up and was about to speak, Zhao Zhen could almost guess what he was going to say, and waved his hand to stop him: "You want to learn from those old-fashioned people in the imperial court?" It doesn’t matter if you say a thousand deaths or ten thousand deaths. I have only one answer. You can’t die now. I still need you to seek medical treatment for me. Do you understand?” Stepping up to support Zhan Zhao, Zhao Zhen tightened Zhan Zhao's arms tightly, nodded slightly, and then paced back to his seat.Zhao Zhen suddenly remembered, and asked: "Is the one you mentioned just now called... the Syracuse School?" No one else needed to answer, Zhao Zhen murmured while thinking.The more he thought about it, the more he frowned, and his expression became even more ugly, "This Xuecheng faction belongs to Dali. Could it be that the one who assassinated me this time was a member of the Xuecheng faction? Could it be that Dali followed the example of Khitan and Xixia, and wanted to use this militaristic idea?" ?”

Zhan Zhao said respectfully: "Your Majesty is too worried. Dali is a small country on the border. It has always been in harmony with our Great Song Dynasty. They have a sympathetic friendship. If they lose our country as a support, they will inevitably be annexed by Xixia. I secretly think that Dali will not be would do such a foolish thing. Furthermore, the Xuecheng faction is a well-known and decent school, and it should not be able to do such treasonable things, and none of the assassins can use the skill of the Xuecheng faction. Maybe those thieves stole it. 'Chiyansha' set the blame on."

Zhao Zhen nodded again and again: "The analysis makes sense." He smiled and said, "I was thinking about whether to ask you to bring more people there. Since you trust the Syracuse faction so much, it's not good to go too much. Waiting for you to finish it right away." The smile gradually disappeared after catching a trace of worry on Zhan Zhao's face, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

"Generally speaking, it takes at least 49 days to travel from Tokyo to Dali. If you travel non-stop day and night, it may be a few days in advance. If everything goes well, it will be great. I'm afraid that I won't be able to get it within the [-]-day deadline. Doctor, I have violated the entrustment of the Holy Majesty."

Zhao Zhen thought for a while, and said, "Do you doubt that those assassins will ambush on the way?"

"These people have repeatedly assassinated, and they will do everything possible to murder His Majesty. The possibility of an ambush is very high, and they take advantage of the absence of the ministers, and the chances of attacking the palace again are also high. I hope that Your Majesty will take every step and be more careful. But... this is still not the case. All Zhan Zhao is worried about." Zhan Zhao took a breath, but his tone couldn't help becoming heavy, "I'm also worried about the Xuecheng faction."

"What is there to worry about for the Xuecheng faction? Aren't your master and the head of the sect good friends?"

"Your Majesty only knows one thing but not the other. Qiao Tianyuan, the head of the Xuecheng faction, was originally from the Song Dynasty. He was an official in his family for generations. The head of the sect is disheartened, he lives and lives in Dali, and never asks about my court affairs. And this time, he invited his disciples to heal His Majesty. For such a big event, the head of Qiao may be afraid of getting into trouble, so Zhan Zhao I really can’t say for sure that he will be willing to help.”

"Just don't tell him that I am His Majesty? Suddenly, I sneak out of the palace to ask him to heal me."

"I'm afraid it's difficult. The head of Qiao is my uncle and elder. He is shrewd and straightforward. If he knows that I have lied to him, he will not let his subordinates come to the capital to detoxify His Majesty. Of course, this is just his own. In thinking about it, I should do my best." Pulling himself together, Zhan Zhao respectfully said: "Zhan Zhao has many concerns, but he just hopes to discuss with His Majesty a good plan that will not fail, so that His Majesty will not suffer any further damage because of his relationship. His expression darkened, "That minister is really beyond redemption."

Zhao Zhen smiled gratifiedly: "I understand."

Imperial Physician Dong clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, I have a suggestion, I don't know if I should say it or not."

"tell me the story."

"Your Majesty can move to the border between Song and Li. Firstly, the time limit can be shortened and healed nearby. Secondly, there is a large army to protect the holy driver. He is not afraid of the assassins daring to move again. Thirdly, if the head of the Xuecheng faction refuses to relieve His Majesty' Chi Yansha ', in desperation, for the sake of our subjects of the Song Dynasty, Your Majesty can directly negotiate with the Lord of Dali, and I think that the Lord of Dali will definitely put pressure on the Xuecheng faction to give him medical treatment in order to clarify the suspicion of the assassination."

Xue Liang was overjoyed when he heard this, and clapped his hands and said, "Mr. Dong, it turns out that you are so resourceful in addition to practicing medicine. This idea is really wonderful." He looked at His Majesty, but he couldn't see his brows stretching. He couldn't help saying, "Your Majesty still What are you worrying about? Is this a bad idea?"

"The idea is a good idea. Imperial Physician Dong ignored one of the key points. If I move to the border and mobilize the troops so much, how can I hide the matter of 'Red Flame Sand' from the Queen Mother?"

Imperial Physician Dong said: "It's about His Majesty's life, it's about my Great Song Foundation. Does Your Majesty still want to hide from the Empress Dowager?"

Zhao Zhen was at a loss for words and didn't know how to respond, so he subconsciously looked at Zhan Zhao, his face full of contradictions and helplessness made his eyebrows even more gloomy.On the other hand, Zhan Zhao was suddenly enlightened and resolute, perhaps because he had already made up his mind.Taking two steps forward, Zhan Zhao knelt down with one knee leaning on his sword, and said: "If your majesty still remembers the heartfelt words of the minister just now, I beg your majesty to ask the queen mother to come and talk in detail immediately." Seeing that Zhao Zhen was still there Hesitating, Zhan Zhao said again, "Now that the Eight Sage Kings are on a mission to Daliao, if your majesty wants to leave the palace, you must ask the queen mother to take charge of the government. Your majesty doesn't have to worry about it anymore." The Baxian King and Bao Zheng pleaded for Zhaozhao, but I typed it by mistake. The Baxian King is not there. It probably won’t come out until the end of Zihuang. It also lured a wolf in... Khan| ||)

Slowly leaning back on the chair, the body seemed to be filled with lead, and it was even heavier than closing the eyelids.Clenching his hands into fists, he felt his palms were wet. When he opened it, he saw a little sweat dripping from his palms.This kind of helplessness is even more chilling than the powerlessness when facing the Queen Mother before.

Zhan Zhao has already spoken, so what is he going to insist on?He knew that what Zhan Zhao said was correct, and he should not hide it from the Queen Mother no matter what the reason was.However, he couldn't even tell himself, but there was an inexplicable persistence, as if there was a hand desperately grabbing his nerves in a very small and hidden corner of his heart, pulling him continuously, making him unable to let go no matter what.

There was no sound in the room, and only Xue Liang was paying attention to everyone's expressions under the solemn atmosphere.Seeing that Zhao Zhen didn't say a word, Xue Liang tiptoed to make a cup of fragrant tea for him and put it on the desk, and said softly: "Your Majesty, don't worry about this matter. Your Majesty is surrounded by left and right to go to the border, so you can't hide it from the empress dowager." Unless His Majesty intends to leave the palace privately as usual..." Covering his mouth suddenly, Xue Liang realized that he seemed to have said something he shouldn't have said, and it was also because Zhao Zhen suddenly turned his head and stared at him with wide eyes.

Xue Liang begged for mercy: "This slave is talking nonsense, Your Majesty, you haven't heard anything."

Zhao Zhenhui smiled slyly, and started to support the case, "Of course, what's the use of your wooden fish head. The solution is what I thought of."

With a bitter face, Xue Liang slapped himself several times, "It's just your mouth that is bad."

Zhao Zhen ignored him, and walked down the cave quickly, walking towards Zhan Zhao.Seeing that Zhao Zhen's expression was extremely excited, Zhan Zhao knew his thoughts and did not allow the "sacred will" to have a chance to come out, so Zhan Zhao bowed first and said, "Your Majesty, please take it back."

Zhao Zhen wondered: "You already know before I tell you?"

Zhan Zhao said: "Eunuch Xue's bad idea, it doesn't matter if you don't listen to it."

Xue Liang hurriedly echoed: "Yes, yes, the ideas of slaves are all bad."

"Who said it was rotten? I wondered how wonderful it is."

The most thoughtful thing is probably how to be romantic and happy after leaving the palace privately?Xue Liang thought.His majesty's playful nature only felt like a headache.Thinking about the business, he hurriedly said: "The matter is of great importance, Your Majesty, please take the country as the most important thing."

"Why, even Xiao Xue, you are worried that I will have so much fun as soon as I leave the palace? After all, my life is at stake, so I can't be unreasonable. There are actually two purposes for my decision. Concealing one's identity doesn't need to cost a lot of time and effort, and secondly, since the palace is not safe, and the world is vast outside, it would be better if the assassins can't trace my whereabouts."

"But those assassins know that His Majesty will definitely go to the Syracuse faction."

"There are guards and so many big insiders around, why should I be afraid of them?" His face turned serious, "I'm still worrying that I have nowhere to find them."

With just this one sentence, the noble and arrogant can no longer hold back.

Physician Dong panicked and hurried forward to persuade him, and Xue Liang followed closely.The old god Zhao Zhen was there, and he couldn't keep his ears quiet after following them.He paid more attention to Zhan Zhao.Uncharacteristically, Zhan Zhao didn't join the chattering ranks, but stood by the door without saying a word, seemingly thinking about something, but also seemed to be observing something.Zhao Zhen approached him curiously and asked, "It's not like you, don't you object?"

"Your Majesty wants to go his own way, even if the minister opposes it, it will not help."

Zhao Zhen restrained his expression and shook his head: "Just as you understand me, I also understand you. When you are not like you, it will never be that simple."

With a sharp shout, Zhao Zhen stood up and slapped Zhan Zhao with his palm.

Everyone was dumbfounded by this sudden move, Zhan Zhao was also stunned, he wanted to meet his palms, but he didn't dare to make a sudden move, he barely avoided it, and at the same time shouted loudly: "Be careful!"

When Zhao Zhen shook the door open with his palm, Xue Liang and others realized that there was someone outside the door.Zhao Zhen slapped the door, and Zhan Zhao's "Be careful" was naturally shouted to the person outside the door.The person outside the door was shocked and fell to the ground defenselessly, but Zhao Zhen didn't give up, and jumped out again, grabbed the person by the shoulder and threw him into the door.

When Zhan Zhao firmly caught him, the door was closed again forcefully.

Zhao Zhen smiled coldly, not knowing whether it was for the shocked Liang Jianzhang or Zhan Zhao.Walking to the table and taking the teacup, he took a sip slowly and said, "Eunuch Liang, are you safe and sound?"

The cold tone made Liang Jianzhang's face turn pale, and his legs and feet felt weak.

Sure enough, without even a second, Zhao Zhen was furious and shouted "You are so brave", and the teacup in his hand was thrown to the ground at the same time and shattered into a pile.

Liang Jianzhang knelt down on the ground when he heard the words, kowtowed and said, "This slave deserves to die, this slave deserves to die."

Zhao Zhen said, "I'm not talking about you." He glanced coldly at Liang Jianzhang, narrowed his eyes, and turned to Zhan Zhao who was beside him. "Zhan Zhao, you are bold!" (Zero: Sweat, I stole the scene in the Huang version of Zhao Zhao, I worship ~~~~~~~.)

Zhan Zhao didn't say a word, just knelt down.Zhao Zhen was furious, pacing back and forth, his anger hard to dissipate. "I really don't understand what you're thinking! Are you out of your mind? You know that Liang Jianzhang is eavesdropping, so you don't need to say anything, but you still deliberately stand in front of the door to help him cover up. Why, don't you even want the queen mother Did you know about this? Don’t you understand how the Queen Mother will react when she finds out? Maybe she will be the first to kill you.”

Unable to stand still in anger, Zhao Zhen went back to his seat and continued with a look of resentment and annoyance: "I know what you are thinking in your heart, you are for me. You don't want me to take risks. I am grateful to you, but really I don't want to accept your love. Because..." His eyes flickered, and finally he punched the table to end all hesitation and unhappiness. "Because, you made me feel that my hard work was in vain, and you made me look like a fool."

"Your Majesty." Zhan Zhao choked speechlessly, "I dare not, I deserve death."

"Another sin deserves death! That's enough! I've heard enough. Are you courtiers just saying these stupid things to fool me? What's wrong with death? One death is clean. You don't deserve death, but You seek death yourself. Since you want to die so much, there is no need for the Queen Mother to do anything, I will give you the death penalty right now!"

The unexpected sentence scared everyone, even Zhan Zhao was taken aback.

Xue Liang's legs trembled like autumn leaves.He has never seen such a majesty. "Your Majesty...you...you really...really want to kill Zhan's guard?"

Zhao Zhen suddenly came back to his senses, his face extremely embarrassed.He vaguely said: "Could it be that... I don't even have the right to say angry words?" Seeing that Zhan Zhao cupped his hands and wanted to speak, he became angry and shouted angrily: "Shut up. I will ban you now You are only allowed to listen, not to speak."

Looking at Liang Jianzhang, Zhao Zhen regained his original calm slightly.The corners of his mouth grinned slightly, with a touch of flattery: "Eunuch Liang, I heard that you will be able to retire and return home in two years."

"Yes." Liang Jianzhang answered obediently, bent like a wheat stalk broken by the wind in a wheat field.

"I heard Xiaoxue say that you asked for leave and went back to your hometown a while ago, it seems to be to buy a cemetery for yourself. Presumably, Eunuch Liang must hope to spend his old age in peace."

His legs and feet could no longer support the weight of his body, and Liang Jianzhang fell to his knees again.Seeing this, Zhao Zhen hurried forward to help him up. "Hey, what is Eunuch Liang doing?"

"I beg Your Majesty to be merciful, be merciful."

Zhao Zhen pretended to be surprised and said: "Eunuch, what's wrong? I didn't say what crime I want to punish you." His eyes sharpened, and he said coldly, "Unless Eunuch did something that made me want to punish you."

"Your Majesty, let me spare this old slave. Your Majesty is going to leave the palace privately for such a big matter, even if this old slave has ten heads, he can't bear the crime of not reporting the knowledge."

"Who said that I want to leave the palace privately? I want to go out in a dignified way."

Knowing that others didn't understand what he meant, Zhao Zhen glanced at Imperial Physician Dong, and then said to Liang Jianzhang: "The imperial physician said just now that I was assassinated, overly frightened, and suffering from a headache, so I can't take care of the government for the time being. I am about to go to Chong'en After the palace asked to see my mother, she was asked to govern on her behalf, and I plan to go to the other palace of the Daming Prefecture to recuperate well."

Liang Jianzhang shook his head distressedly and said, "Why is your majesty doing this? This year, there is still a grand ceremony for offering sacrifices to the heavens, so you can't leave."

"Is it important to worship the sky, or my dragon body?" Zhao Zhen waved his hand and said, "I've lost my will, so you don't need to say more."

Liang Jianzhang kowtowed heavily and said, "Forgive me for not being able to obey the holy will. Your Majesty is the master of the old slave, and the queen mother is also the master of the old slave. The old slave really dare not lie to the queen mother."

Zhao Zhen sneered coldly, straightened his waist and said, "Didn't your father-in-law do something to deceive the Queen Mother long ago? Why are you afraid again now?" Approaching, Zhao Zhen said in a voice that only Liang Jianzhang could hear, "The torture stick was hit by you, Eunuch Liang. I'm afraid Eunuch Liang won't let the Queen Mother know the secret of it?"

A drop of cold sweat dripped down, and the old body lay prostrate on the ground as if it would never be able to straighten up.Zhao Zhen smiled complacently, raised his hand, and said, "Elder-in-law should be a sensible person at such an age. Then, please let him lead the way for me. I just want to pay my respects to my mother."

************************************************** *********************

Bao Zheng's face was pale, and his usually steady voice couldn't help trembling: "So, Your Majesty, you just left the palace like this?"

"Otherwise, who does Ai Qing think is standing in front of you?" Zhao Zhen smiled very casually, glanced at Zhan Zhao, and said, "I didn't plan to tell anyone. But after thinking about it, for the sake of the quietness of this road, I can break it off." When someone complains, I'm here. Come to discuss with Aiqing."

Bao Zheng frowned: "I'm afraid His Majesty didn't come here to settle with the ministers, but to give orders."

Zhao Zhen laughed loudly when he heard the words, clapped his palms and said, "It's better to love Qing and be sensible." His face turned serious, "Then I will put this big burden on Bao Qing's shoulders."

"Listen to the holy will."

"I want you to do a few things. First, I know that my mother handed over the case to Dali Temple, but I want you to continue to investigate the assassination case without any mistakes. If you encounter any obstacles, I wrote The imperial decree can help you. Second, I am going to Dali this time, the matter is very important, and I don't want to let the slightest news leak. At the Daming Mansion, I have already confessed some of my cronies, such as Concubine Yu, Xue Liang, and Imperial Physician Dong. I think they at least You can hide it for me for a while. However, I am afraid that if something happens, the queen mother may embarrass them, so I wrote another imperial decree and intend to hand it over to Bao Qing. I hope you can do your best to save them. And... "" Taking the brocade box from Zhan Zhao, Zhao Zhen carefully stroked the surface of the box with his palm, "There is one last imperial decree, which I will hand over to you. But what is written in it, I don't want to say now. Two After a month, if the Empress Dowager does not realize that I am not in the other palace of Daming Prefecture, and I have not yet returned, you should take this imperial decree to the Empress Dowager and ask her to act in accordance with this imperial edict."

After finishing speaking, he handed the brocade box to Bao Zheng.Bao Zheng received it on his knees, shouting long live three times.Standing up, Bao Zheng carefully held the brocade box and said, "How many guards did your Majesty bring with you?"

Zhao Zhen saw Bao Zheng's eyes slanted to Zhan Zhao from time to time, knowing his thoughts, so he said: "No more, no less, there are 18 people in total including Zhan's guards. They are all carefully selected experts. So Bao Qing doesn't have to worry, as long as I handle the things I have asked for."

Bao Zheng was about to speak, but saw a white figure rushing into the flower hall, he didn't look at anyone, just grabbed the blue shoulders, seemed to be full of words, but melted away in the panting sound stare silently.It was not until a long time, when there was no trace of breathing left, that he said, "Are you back?"

Once upon a time, emotion always coexisted with embarrassment. If it was in the past, Zhan Zhao would definitely hold those warm hands and say "I'm back".Now, he could neither stretch out his hand nor speak, so he could only nod slightly.

This nod is enough to understand the other party's mind.Withdrew enthusiastically and dejectedly, and returned with a calm and slightly lonely smile.When he saw another person in the flower hall, Bai Yutang was taken aback for a moment, then knelt down on one knee: "Caomin Bai Yutang has seen His Majesty."

"Be flat, no need to be polite."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Seeing that Zhan Zhao and the emperor were both dressed in civilian clothes, Zhan Zhao even carried a burden, Bai Yutang asked curiously, "What's going on here? Could it be that you are going on a business trip with His Majesty?"

Everyone looked at each other, Gongsun Ce said softly to Bao Zheng: "Bai Shaoxia is not an outsider, if His Majesty can get Bai Shaoxia's help, wouldn't it be better?"

Bao Zheng nodded in agreement, and explained the whole story to Bai Yutang.Before Bai Yutang finished listening, he knelt down again, clasped his fists with both hands, and spoke sincerely.

"Caomin implores Your Majesty to allow Caomin to go to Dali together."
