The Favorite of the Court of Joy

Not long after the dinner, Tang Zeyu brought Ximei back, and Ximei was full of harvest with several packages in her hands. As soon as Zhang Xiaoqian saw him, she pulled him back to her side, preventing Tang Zeyu from acting like Tang Zeyu was some kind of plague god.

"Old Zhao, are you free? I have something to talk to you about." Tang Zeyu asked.

Zhao Minghan originally wanted to spend more time with Zhang Xiaoqian, but seeing Tang Zeyu's serious face, he also understood the importance of the matter. "Go, go to the king's study."

After the two left, Zhang Xiaoqian began to interrogate, "Ximei, did that playboy treat you well? Did he bully you? Tell me quickly, and I will definitely make the decision for you."

Ximei blushed, and answered with her head down: "No, Mr. Tang has always been... well-behaved. Xiaoqian, don't think so badly of Mr. Tang, he is very nice."

"Oh, well, I hope it's as you said." Zhang Xiaoqian didn't expose his crappy lie anymore, he couldn't hide his lying appearance, his face turned red when you looked at him.

Ximei didn't know Zhang Xiaoqian's inner thoughts, he really concealed the truth.Tang Zeyu secretly kissed him inadvertently, and his red face was so ashamed that he couldn't fade away.Ximei changed the topic and said, "I brought a lot of delicious food, come and eat, everyone has a share."

When it came to eating, everyone cheered up, especially Zhang Xiaoqian and Wan Zi, who were pregnant, immediately put aside the questioning of Ximei.

In the study, the expressions of the two men were not as relaxed as usual.

"You mean that Nanchu intends to form an alliance with me, Dongyue?" Zhao Minghan asked.

"If there is such a plan, it depends on whether Prince Rui agrees or not." Tang Zeyu took a sip of hot tea, and then said, "Beisha Kingdom has been very aggressive in the past few years, and has harassed me on the border of Western Chu several times. The emperor loves people who develop elixir with all his heart, the court is corrupt, and the army is weak. Our prince proposed two alliances. I also heard that the northern border of Dongyue has also been invaded recently."

"It's a little bit of harassment, but the loss is not serious." Zhao Minghan said again, "Your Tang family is good at producing poison. Isn't it easy to solve it quickly by injecting a few poisons?"

Tang Zeyu sighed deeply, "Do you think our Emperor Xichu didn't say this? This is a dispute between the two countries. If you want to defeat each other, you must use the right way. Poisoning is not the right way. Our ancestors made poison to punish the good. Promoting evil is not for the purpose of killing. If my eldest brother does what the Emperor of Western Chu says, he will violate the rules of his ancestors, and at this moment, those offshoots may use this as an excuse to drive him down from the position of Patriarch."

"Even if you want an alliance, shouldn't you send an envoy to formally talk to my emperor's nephew?"

"Heh, who doesn't know that you, Zhao Minghan and Li Taishi are controlling Dongyue Kingdom, and now that Li Taishi has defected, wouldn't it be more straightforward for the court to ask you for matters?"

Zhao Minghan frowned slightly. In the past, Yunxuan was still young, and the court was indeed in the hands of him and old man Li, but now that he has gradually gained power, people in the world should no longer think that he is a puppet emperor. "You're joking, the emperor decides all important matters in the court. If you really want to form an alliance, you can ask the emperor of Dongyue Kingdom."

"Hehe~~" Tang Zeyu looked at him in surprise, and said, "What do you mean? You are no longer the regent? You want to return the power to your nephew?"

"This king wanted to be an idle prince from the beginning, but there was a gang of treacherous officials and traitors like old man Li in the court, so this king had to come back to help the emperor. Now that he has grown up and is in charge, this king will let him delegate power Let him take control. When this king judges old man Li and those courtiers who have treasonous intentions, this king will return to being a carefree and idle prince."

"Heh." Tang Zeyu didn't believe it, "Beisha is so covetous, you can really make yourself a idle prince."

"If the people from Beisha Kingdom still come to invade, I will definitely beat them so that they dare not come again." Zhao Minghan had already sent people to collect some information about Beisha, and he had already planned how to deal with them in his mind. "As for the alliance between the two countries you mentioned, it will be determined by the emperor of Dongyue Kingdom."

"Very well, I will meet the emperor of Dongyue tomorrow as an envoy." Tang Zeyu stood up, "See you tomorrow."

"I'm afraid I won't be able to see you tomorrow."

"Why?" Tang Zeyu asked.

"because……"

………………

That night, Zhang Xiaoqian thought that Zhao Minghan would spy on Tang Zeyu for a long time, and was about to undress and go to bed early when Zhao Minghan suddenly came to his room.He dismissed Xiaocheng and others, undressed him personally, and served him to bed.

Zhang Xiaoqian thought he was going to "torture" him severely, but unexpectedly, he just lay quietly with him, put one hand on his stomach, stroked him gently a few times, and spoke with a magnetic voice. He whispered in his ear, "Our baby will be born in another month."

"Hmm." Zhang Xiaoqian had both expectations and fears. After all, although he had a darling and a woman's special features, how he would give birth at that time was beyond his imagination.

"Don't be afraid, the king has already prepared everything."

Zhang Xiaoqian frowned slightly, why did Zhao Minghan say this like parting from life and death? "My lord, what happened?"

Zhao Minghan was silent for a while, and said directly: "This king will leave the city secretly tomorrow afternoon, and it will take a long time to come back."

"You... Where are you going? How long will you be going? Is the place dangerous?" Zhang Xiaoqian's heart ached when he heard that Zhao Minghan was leaving.

Zhao Minghan looked at him and laughed, and said, "Little slave, are you worried about my king's safety?"

"No... not." Zhang Xiaoqian said duplicity, "I'm worried that if something happens to you, I will be kicked out of the palace. I haven't enjoyed enough of the glory and wealth."

"Don't worry, if anything happens to the king, you, as the side concubine of the king, will also be on the imperial imperial seal. The emperor will not let you live on the streets. Besides, you are about to give birth. If you give birth to a son, you will be able to inherit the royal family. The king's throne, if you give birth to a daughter, you are the princess, and as your biological mother, the emperor will not drive you out of the palace, and you are still the highest-ranking person in the palace."

Zhang Xiaoqian immediately covered his mouth and said: "You are not allowed to talk about these invisible things. I haven't become a real princess yet, so how can you be okay."

When it comes to the matter of the concubine, Zhao Minghan is indeed thinking about it.In the past, he really only regarded Beloved as something warm to wear, but this little thing really made him hard to give up. Anyway, now the common people know that he dotes on this Beloved very much. At the same time, Grand Master Li used this as an excuse to say that he was Beguiled by Beloved, it is better to follow his will and marry Zhang Xiaoqian as his concubine, so he is not afraid of any rumors that go against the morals and laws of this world.

"Tell me, where are you going?"

"Go and clean up old man Li and some rebels."

After listening for a long time, Zhang Xiaoqian asked again: "Are you going to go for a long time?"

"It's as short as half a month, and as long as a month. Don't worry, the king will definitely come back to wash the child."

Zhang Xiaoqian didn't know how to express his complicated mood at the moment, he beat his chest with his small fist, and then held his hand tightly again.He has a big belly and it's not easy to lie on his side and face him.A thought suddenly came to Zhang Xiaoqian's mind, and he blushed and said, "My lord, I want you."

Zhao Minghan smiled evilly, and asked deliberately: "Why do you want this king?"

"Dry……"

"What are you doing... I didn't hear clearly." Zhao Minghan did it on purpose.

"Fuck me, fuck me, fuck me, do you hear me clearly?" Without waiting for Zhao Minghan to speak, Zhang Xiaoqian hooked Zhao Minghan's neck and kissed him actively, his lips were entangled for a long time before they separated.

"Little thing, I planned to let you sleep well tonight, but you didn't cherish it." Zhao Minghan stopped talking to him, quickly took off their underwear, treated each other honestly, and stuck together... ...

………………………………………………………………………………………………

The next day, Prince Rui claimed that he was ill and was recuperating in the palace, but secretly he had already been sent out of the capital.Tang Zeyu and the officials of Western Chu appeared in the court hall of Dongyue Kingdom as envoys.

At this time, the court has taken on a new look.A group of officials such as the Ministry of Rites and other officials involved in the cheating case were dismissed, and those who were sentenced to death were sentenced to death, thus vacating many official positions.Zhao Yunxuan appointed someone he trusted to be on duty, and Prime Minister Meng also took the opportunity to appoint several of his protégés.

Before Zhao Minghan left, he told Zhao Yunxuan to believe in the decisions he made, and as an elder and a subject, he would definitely support his actions.Therefore, the envoy of Dongyue Kingdom expressed his willingness to form an alliance, and Zhao Yunxuan decided to agree to form an alliance after careful consideration.

Prime Minister Meng disapproved of Zhao Yunxuan's actions in his heart, but Zhao Yunxuan refused to let him speak, which made him very dissatisfied.This time Zhao Minghan said that the illness was not in the court, and that the most important words of the officials in the court were Prime Minister Meng.Ever since Li Taishi became a fugitive and his family trees fell and the monkeys scattered, Prime Minister Meng wanted to become the next "Li Taishi" with power over the government and the public.Originally, their family had a queen, which was the most beneficial guarantee of prosperity and wealth. Unfortunately, this daughter was killed by the Li family early. Although their Meng family now has a nobleman, who is located in the polar region and cannot help but be favored by the emperor. Prime Minister Meng is considering How to send your own people into the harem again.

And in the harem, Xue Yanru and Zheng Yinger are making a spacious, elegant and beautiful palace, because in a few days, Zhao Yunxuan will take Wan Zi and Zhang Xiaoqian into the palace.Zhao Minghan is not in the palace, although there are many hidden guards protecting them, it still makes people a little uneasy, so Zhao Yunxuan simply took them into the palace and took care of them under his nose, not to mention that both of them will give birth in a month. Children, be more careful.

Originally, Zhang Xiaoqian didn't want to leave, because he was familiar with everything here, because he could at least feel a little bit of Zhao Minghan's aura here, but when he thought about safety issues, he finally decided to bring Xiaocheng and a few maids to accompany Wanzi and Xi. Mei lived in the palace for a while.In fact, think about it, as long as they are still together, it is like living together in Yimei Garden.

The day Zhang Xiaoqian and Wan Zi entered the palace was the day when the results of the second scientific examination were released.Just like last time, when the list was posted, some people were happy, some were angry, and some even went crazy.The most surprising thing is that Zhou Bowen took the exam with a sick body, and he was able to rank in the top ten, which shows that the ink in his stomach is real.
