Han Zigao

"My lord! Just listen to this old man. The marriage at this time is just to test the two people's hearts. Success or failure depends on one action. If the lord goes to visit General Han rashly, if the two continue to reconcile, I'm afraid the Holy Majesty will not tolerate it!" Mao Xi earnestly.

"Okay, I'm going to the Queen Mother's palace, and ask her to marry you as soon as possible."

"Wait, my lord, if you go to see the queen mother to give you a marriage, if the matter fails, you will definitely be known by the sage. If the sage pursues it, how can the lord protect himself?"

"This..." Chen Xu thought of his elder brother's majesty, but was also afraid in his heart: "In your opinion?"

"Well, the lord is in the empress dowager's palace, does he have any trusted aides?"

"There are a few guards, arranged by me."

"My lord, you must tell the Queen Mother that if General Han agrees to this matter, this girl will be taken away that night. If not, neither this girl nor Eunuch Wei can stay."

"Sir, do you think things can come to this point?"

"Of course, even at this point, it is very difficult for the prince to get rid of the relationship. Fortunately, when the woman entered the palace, the prince had not yet returned, otherwise, the prince would be implicated. Of course, the prince can't do this risky move, just wait. Late."

"Oh, I don't want to wait."

"Then please, my lord, must act according to the old minister's plan, and there must be no mistakes."

"Okay, then Mr. Yi."

But she said that Peiqian had been serving the queen mother for more than a month, and after meeting Chen Xu a few times, she was actually more anxious than Chen Xu.

She talked sweetly every day, and made the queen mother very happy. The queen mother saw that she was smart and was the same age as Chen Wei'er back then, and she occasionally showed some motherly feelings towards her.

But Pei Quen is indeed much more beautiful than Chen Weier.

That night, Chen Xu, king of Ancheng, came to see the Queen Mother.

Zhang wanted to see him.Naturally happy.But he asked to back away from the left and right, and brought up the matter of betrothing Na Peiqian to Han Zigao.

"Mother, in fact, General Han is only 27 (false years old) and has not yet married a wife. Mother, look, if General Han gets married, can he still live in the palace?"

Zhang Yaoer said: "The Ai family wanted to dedicate this girl to the emperor. But he was almost beaten to death. It seems that the emperor really doesn't like women. Originally, the Ai family thought, but Han Zigao is very young. But He has been with Chen Qian since he was a child, and he has been bullied by the emperor. He has to marry a wife and have children. If he marries a wife and has children, the emperor will not be able to keep him in the palace. I just heard that he has fallen out of favor and has not lived recently. In the palace, why do you want to give him a marriage?"

"The queen mother just gave him a marriage at this time. Otherwise, the emperor might call him back to the palace sooner or later."

"Well. I'm just afraid that the child prostitute is greedy for the luxurious life in the palace and the power. I'm afraid I won't agree. And your imperial brother loves him so much. I'm afraid he will know. Instead, he will vent his anger on the Ai family, which is not beautiful. .”

"Well, as long as General Han is tempted. Let's try to arrange for General Han to meet that woman behind my emperor's back. The woman is so beautiful, and General Han has just fallen out of favor recently, so I'm afraid it's easier to be tempted. As long as General Han agrees, the two will live together." Just cook the rice and cook it.”

"Okay then, Aijia will give him a marriage tomorrow."

"Xu'er has something to say."

"What's the matter?"

"If General Han disagrees with the marriage, he will tell the emperor about it. If the emperor pursues it, Xu'er is afraid that he will kill Xu'er, so he will not be merciful."

"Oh, Xu'er, don't worry, when the time comes, Ai's family will say that it's Ai's own idea, and you won't be implicated, Xu'er."

"But queen mother, if the emperor captures that girl and tortures her, it's hard to guarantee that she won't speak out."

"Then, Yixuer, what do you mean?"

"If General Han agrees to this matter, please ask him to take this woman away on the same day. If he does not agree, then neither this woman nor Eunuch Wei can stay."

"This..." Zhang Yaoer disagreed.

"Mother, is Xu'er's life more important, or the lives of these two servants, please think twice."

"In Empress Mother's heart, Xu'er's life is naturally important, but Empress Mother feels that this is not the case."

"Even if there is even the slightest possibility, Xu'er would not dare to take the risk." He knelt down with tears in his eyes: "Xu'er still wants to serve the queen mother under Huan's knees."

After a long, long time, Zhang Yao'er finally let out a long sigh and said: "My son is so filial, the queen mother just depends on you."

Zhang Yao'er and Chen Ba first thought about it together, but she didn't know that her husband had already tried these tricks.What's the point of these two people who can't even handle her husband?The only difference is that this woman has an alluring appearance, and Han Zigao doesn't hate her as much as he hates Chen Wei'er.

It is difficult to summon Han Zigao alone, but there are actually many opportunities. Han Zigao can't go to court. In the barracks, as long as the emperor goes to court, Han Zigao can be summoned to meet him.

So, Han Zigao had just woken up in the morning, and unexpectedly received a summons from the Queen Mother.

He was really surprised when he got this decree. During this period of time, he drank and bought drunk every day, and he was very decadent, but he didn't drink yet today.

But he would not be rude, and after calling his followers to wait for him to change his clothes, he still followed the visitor to gallop to the Empress Dowager's Palace.

When the Queen Mother saw Han Zigao, she was really surprised: This Han Zigao's appearance is indeed much more beautiful than that of Pei Qun, no wonder all the beauties in the world can't get into the emperor's eyes anymore, it's a pity, a pity, no matter how beautiful you are, you are still a man.

Han Zigao saluted: "My minister Han Zigao pays homage to the Queen Mother!"

"Pingshen!" His voice was also pleasant, and she secretly sighed.

"General Han Guigeng? Who else is in the family?"

"Reporting to the Empress Dowager, Weichen is 27 years old (note: false age), and has a father and a younger brother's family at home."

"Has General Han ever had a wife?"

"Not yet."

"My daughter Wei'er's tombstone says the general's wife, why?"

"Well, Empress Dowager, the former emperor may have intended to betroth the princess to the young general, but the latter came from a humble background and was not worthy of the princess. After the princess passed away, the matter was over." He didn't know Zhang Yaoer What you know and what you don't know can only be vague.

"Oh, it seems that my daughter Wei'er has a poor life!" Tears came down.

After a while: "Men should be married, women should be married. General Han has fought for his country and made many military exploits. How can he not have a wife? I have a court lady who is exhausted. I have adopted her as a righteous daughter and want to betroth him to the general."

Chuan Peiqian came to meet each other.

The woman came forward to meet the Queen Mother.

Queen Mother: "Qin'er, go see General Han."

The woman walked up to Han Zigao, and the two met. Han Zigao looked up and saw that it was the jade pendant. He was startled and asked, "Miss, why did you enter the palace?"

The woman gave a blessing and said: "The little girl is wearing all clothes and was rescued by the general. Originally, when she returned home, she saw a notice of summoning maids in the palace. She was selected by the adults, so she was able to enter the palace."

Han Zigao also replied, "Miss, please don't be too polite."

Zhang Yao'er smiled: "General Han, it turns out that the two of you have such a past, the Ai family sees that the two of you are indeed destined, do you think the wife that the Ai family chose for you is satisfied?"

Han Zigao knelt down and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Queen Mother, but I don't want to marry a wife in the end, so please take it back."

Zhang Yao'er still smiled: "The Ai family just said that the male college should get married and the female college should marry, General Han doesn't have to refuse. The Ai family will now decree to give Peiqian to the general as his wife."

Han Zigao could not afford to kneel: "Please take back your order, the queen mother, Zigao dare not agree to this marriage."

"Why, do you dare to resist the order?"

"Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager knows very well, why do you have to do this? If Zigao agrees to this marriage, Zigao is fine, I am afraid that this woman's life will be killed. Please think again, Empress Dowager."

"You mean that you are willing to marry a wife yourself, but it is the emperor who dominates you and prevents you from marrying a wife?"

"Zigao doesn't want to marry a wife either, but the emperor certainly won't agree to Zigao marrying a wife."

"Oh." Knowing that Han Zigao was telling the truth, Zhang Yao'er suddenly smiled slightly, and said, "The general only needs to marry a wife in secret, and we can keep it from the emperor. If the general is willing, the Ai family can order someone to compare with you in your barracks." I will give you a mansion nearby, and settle Peiqian there. You can meet her during the day, and if the emperor calls you back to the palace at night, you can go back to live in the palace. This will not delay your lifelong events, you see How?" I thought to myself that as long as the raw rice is made into cooked rice, I'm not afraid of you running away, and I'm not afraid that the emperor will not want your life.

Han Zigao smiled slightly: "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your kindness. Zigao is not blessed to suffer, let alone hurt others. Zigao has already vowed not to marry for life. Please don't insist on it, Queen Mother."

"General Han! As long as you and I don't talk about this matter and act carefully, the emperor will not know, so why are you stubborn?"

"Queen Dowager, Zigao has made up his mind, please take it back." No matter what he said, Han Zigao still refused.

Zhang Yaoer finally got angry: "Han Zigao! You are a man, the emperor's male favourite, it is not appropriate to occupy the harem! Why are you so shameless, seductive and troublesome? If you insist on doing this, the Ai family can immediately issue an order to arrest you!" Kill him, and when the emperor finds out, at worst, the Ai family will give this life to you!"

"Queen Dowager, Zigao's intentions have been decided. Please do not force Zigao. I hope that the Queen Mother will take back her order, and don't cause chaos in the court. Please think twice."

"Okay, since you resisted the order, come and drag Han Zigao out and kill him without mercy."

All the guards looked at each other, knelt down and said: "Please calm down the Queen Mother! General Han has made great achievements, and he is a first-rank general. He cannot be executed arbitrarily. Please take back the order of the Queen Mother!"

Zhang Yaoer: "Why, how dare you resist the edict?"

Everyone: "The Queen Mother, please take it back!"

Han Zigao bowed his head and said, "If the Empress Dowager has nothing else to do, Zigao will take my leave!"

Stand up.

Zhang Yaoer was furious: "What, Han Zigao, you disobeyed the Ai family's will, do you want to rebel?"

Han Zigao was in a hurry. Are the Chen family's father and daughter so unreasonable?

His stubborn temper came up, he turned his head and left, and no one dared to stop him.Zhang Yaoer was furious, and turned to the guards: "How dare you disobey the Ai family's order and not arrest him? The Ai family will kill you all!"
