How to Raid the Queen

When Tao Xianzhi got up early and heard that Wanhua Building had been seized, his first thought was that no matter what, he had to go to the post house in Beijing.But when the court was approaching, Jing Wenhao appointed him to go to the Hall of Supreme Harmony.Father Tao hadn't been to the Hall of Supreme Harmony for a long time, and seeing the emperor calling Tao Xianzhi to go by name, he thought he was going to use his son again.On the way Tao Xianzhi went with the emperor, when he passed by him, he patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction, expressing that he should not disappoint Jing Wenhao's expectations.But Tao Xianzhi knew that if he went there this time, there would be no good fruit to eat.

Today's Hall of Supreme Harmony is somewhat different from the past.In the past, the people standing in the palace were all the old ministers of the cabinet. Jing Wenhao also found it very annoying.Apart from him, there are only two other people in the hall today, Tao Xianzhi and Jing Wenzhao.

This is Tao Xianzhi's second visit to the Hall of Supreme Harmony. The last time he came was a few months ago. At that time, after taking part in the palace examination, all the top three were called into the Hall of Supreme Harmony. They themselves will entrust them with responsibility.At that time, it was really beautiful.Seeing Jing Wenzhao standing with him, Tao Xianzhi knew that his luck had come to an end today.

"Tao Aiqing is in the Ministry of Criminal Justice, is she doing well?" Everyone who was supposed to come has arrived, so Jing Wenhao stopped procrastinating.

Tao Xianzhi cupped his hands and said, "Go back to the emperor, very good."

"You, although you have not been an official for long, your personality has followed your father's. Tao Xiang is unwavering in his loyalty. He devoted himself to Daqi and died. He did everything without regard for his own body. I asked Liu Shangshu, The same is true for you in the Ministry of Punishment." Jing Wenhao threw out a sugar-coated cannonball first, "However, I am afraid that you will work too hard. After all, you are Tao Xiang's favorite child."

"Eating the king's salary and being loyal to the king, the minister does not work hard, and everything is his duty." Although Tao Xianzhi vaguely guessed what Jing Wenhao wanted to do, he still had to act enough.

"Where is this? My heart is like a bright mirror. I can see your hard work." Jing Wenhao restrained his monarch airs a little bit, and made a polite and corporal gesture, "However, A few days ago, reports from various places said that this year, hundreds of officials, large and small, died of exhaustion from handling official duties."

Jing Wenhao sighed, and said: "My Daqi is able to have today's scene, all thanks to these adults. However, I am quite worried about you. With your hard work, I am afraid that you will stay in the Ministry of Punishment and support me. Can't stop."

Tao Xianzhi took a deep breath and said, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, my minister is in good health."

"Don't say that, I came here today because I have an errand for you to do." Jing Wenhao interrupted Tao Xianzhi, "This errand is very easy, and the grade is also high. In Jingzhong, there is no one more suitable than you."

"I just don't know if Tao Aiqing is willing." Jing Wenhao casually glanced at Tao Xian, and even smiled at him, looking quite relaxed.

"It is the emperor's will that I will go through fire and water, and I will not hesitate." Tao Xianzhi bowed his hands again.

"There's no need for you to go through fire and water, it's an easy thing to say. It's just this matter, it depends on what you mean."

Knowing the result, Tao Xianzhi didn't want to play with Jing Wenhao any more, so he said, "Please tell me, Your Majesty."

Jing Wenhao took a sip of tea, and said lightly, "It's nothing, my younger brother is such a big man, and he hasn't married a concubine yet. A few days ago, I dreamed that my father blamed me, saying that I didn't Taking my brother's matter to heart, I thought of finding a good marriage for him in this high school in Beijing. My brother is picky, he said he didn't want a woman or a child, but he wanted a male concubine. I found it Treat people as if they were their own children.”

"Do you feel a little stupid?" Jing Wenhao said to himself, "I also feel a little stupid, helpless, you are not joking, I have already agreed, so there is no room for repentance. In the past two months, I and The queen thought about it, but there is no one more suitable than you for the unmarried child of the high school in Beijing. So, Tao Aiqing, are you willing to marry my younger brother and follow him to the southwest to be a relaxed princess?"

Jing Wenhao's words sounded as if he was seeking the opinions of the parties concerned, but his tone did not mean to seek advice at all. Instead, it was more like an imperial decree, but it was missing a big seal.

"Brother Huang, younger brother..." Jing Wenzhao was visibly anxious and wanted to refute.

"What? You think it's good too, don't you? Didn't you say a while ago that you want to find someone who is as elegant as your sister-in-law. I think so too. If you go back so noisy, if you pamper her so much again, maybe you can tear down the palace. If you happen to meet someone with a bad temper, maybe something big will happen in the southwest. But Tao Aiqing is different."

"You and Tao Qing have met for a while. You have seen Tao Xiang's ability to teach and educate people. Naturally, the people he brings out will not be bad. Moreover, Tao Xianzhi has a gentle temperament and does not covet fame and fortune. He is an appropriate person, and I feel relieved to have him take care of you. The most important thing is that he was my companion when I was young. Didn’t you play together all day at that time? It’s just right, and you don’t need to train Feelings, little brother, Brother Huang must have done the right thing this time."

Jing Wenhao almost said the last sentence, the meaning behind his words was self-evident.

Jing Wenzhao accepted his excuse, and said, "That's the best way to go, please trouble the emperor's brother and sister-in-law."

"Where is there. They are all brothers. Can I not take your marriage to heart?" Jing Wenhao softened his tone when he heard Jing Wenzhao's confession. He looked at Tao Xianzhi again and asked, "Why?" Like? Tao Aiqing, would you like to."

After Tao Xianzhi heard this, he accepted it quite quickly, not as big as Jing Wenzhao's reaction.At this time, Jing Wenhao asked again, but he didn't hide, and smiled generously: "I am willing."

Jing Wenzhao's heart turned a thousand times for a word of willingness.He wanted to marry Tao Xianzhi for many years, but it was definitely not under such circumstances.Now Jing Wenhao obviously knew about them, so he wanted to tie them together abruptly, and then wipe them all out.

"Brother Huang, brother, I regret it. I don't want to marry him, I don't want to marry a man, please reconsider." Jing Wenzhao couldn't pass his own test in the end, and now his future is uncertain. People follow him to escape death, he can't do it.

"Presumptuous." Hearing this, Jing Wenhao immediately dropped the teacup in his hand, and the hot tea splashed out everywhere, "Do you think I have a lot of free time on weekdays? To tell you the truth, it's just that the court is not When I am in peace, I have food and clothing every day, and I will follow your sister-in-law to help you find a marriage. Do you think it is fun? Your sister-in-law has been very angry these days, and she still insists on seeing each son every day. household registration, you just say you don’t want it?”

"My brother is willing to be punished, and I just ask the emperor to take back his life." Jing Wenzhao knelt on the ground, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.

"Punishment, hehe. Let me tell you, this matter has already been decided, and Tao Aiqing has already agreed. I immediately asked someone to draw up an imperial edict and send it out. If you really don't want to obey the edict, you can resist the edict and try."

Jing Wenhao didn't give him another chance to refute, and said: "Go back to the posthouse early and wait for the order." He left without looking back.

The fire that Jing Wenhao posted just now is not all fake, at least Li Xi's embarrassment is true.Since coming back from the dungeon last night, Li Xi has been complaining about being unwell, the imperial doctor prescribed a recuperation prescription, and the medicine was boiled out, but Li Xi almost vomited it up as soon as she drank it.When I went to court this morning, I asked Li Xi to get up and eat something. Even though it was just a toothbrush ceremony, all kinds of Li Xi's favorite snacks were still set up on the table.But Li Xi couldn't eat much, except for the sauced duck tongue, something with a little bit of two oil stars, Li Xi almost put it down in his mouth.If you can't eat it, it's disgusting.Jing Wenhao saw that he was so distressed that he couldn't help but pestered Li Xi to eat a few more mouthfuls of bird's nest porridge before letting him go back to sleep.

When Jing Wenhao returned to Zhiran Hall, Li Xi just got up, Li Zhiyuan was holding a gavel and was telling Li Xi a story.Seeing Jing Wenhao coming, Li Zhiyuan wanted to get up and pack, but Jing Wenhao stopped him and motioned him to continue.

He walked up to Li Xi by himself, and hugged him in his arms.

"Have you gotten up to eat?" Jing Wenhao asked the person in his arms in a low voice.

Li Xi nodded, waved his hand, made Li Zhiyuan stop, and said to the person: "Go and rest, I have something to talk to the emperor."

Li Zhiyuan returned to the side hall wisely, but fortunately Li Xi treated him very well, even in the side hall, all kinds of snacks were never broken, so he was happy to be at leisure now.

"What did you eat in the morning?" Jing Wenhao put his hand on Li Xi's stomach, and felt relieved when he found that it was bulging.

"Li Zhiyuan brought me wontons, which are light and delicious." Li Xi replied.

"The emperor announced Jing Wenzhao's entry into the palace today?"

"Yes, we have arranged a marriage for him." Jing Wenhao kissed Li Xi's hair. There were too many things going on recently, and he hadn't been able to talk to Li Xi properly for a long time.

"Is it Tao's or Wang's?" Li Xi shrank his neck and asked.

"The Tao family."

"They all accepted?"

"So what if you don't accept it? This is a marriage gift. I've said so well, so let them do it?"

Li Xi laughed, this was the first time Jing Wenhao put on airs of the emperor in front of him. "But, Prime Minister Tao, how do you explain it? Tao Xianzhi is the person chosen by Prime Minister Tao."

"You can't tell the truth, otherwise, according to Tao Xiang's temper, you can kill Tao Xianzhi right away. In this way, you can only hurt his heart first." Jing Wenhao pulled Li Xi to lie down on the soft chair. Last night After tossing for too long, I relaxed at this moment, and fell asleep after nothing happened.
