Innocent cast of white iron

Chapter 31 Oppression

The palace is also unsafe at this time.Han Zhen was notified only in the middle of the night, saying that it was Zhao Qi's birthday today, and couldn't help being furious, saying, "A bunch of trash, they only notified me of such a big matter now!"

The servant who was scolded felt aggrieved, and thought to himself, there are hundreds of courtiers in the court, who knows whose birthday it is... If it wasn't for Zhao Xiang's birthday today, there might not even be a person to inform him.Unexpectedly, the little emperor was still angry, saying that the notification was late.

The little eunuch kept complaining, and begged for mercy, "Back to the emperor, this servant just found out! Prime Minister Zhao didn't hold a birthday banquet, and outsiders don't know about it. The servant only found out after listening to the ladies in the court that Liu Shangqing went to the prime minister's mansion to celebrate his birthday. .”

Han Zhen frowned, remembering what Yan Sheng said a few days ago.Liu Changqing and the Tai Tuo have been in close contact, so it is possible that there is another secret... Han Zhen does not believe that he is forming a party for personal gain, but the Tai Tuo is beautiful, gentle and polite, and everyone in the world admires him.

When Han Zhen thought of this possibility, he became even more restless, and regretted that they should not have let the two go to Quanzhou together that day!It shouldn't be like this that day, and Liu Changqing should be beaten up so that he can have a long memory, not everyone can covet it!He also thought that Liu Changqing had only learned about people and was as beautiful as a crown jade. The two of them shared the same room at night, if the Taifu...

"Come on! Prepare your horse and go to the Prime Minister's Mansion!"

As soon as he entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, Steward Wang Fu recognized the young master who used to come to play frequently, and said, "My master is discussing matters with Mr. Liu in the study, and the young master is waiting for the slave to report."

Han Zhen ignored him, and guarded behind him, "You stay here, don't get any closer." Then he strode into the backyard and kicked open the door of the study.

Wang Fu's heart skipped a beat, and he straightened up, this little ancestor is really terrible!

Besides, Zhao Qi was originally thinking about how to solve this troublesome matter.He has no affection for Liu Changqing. If he has any affection, he probably just regards him as his student or friend, and the object he wants to win over.

At this moment, there was a stalemate, and suddenly the door was kicked open. Before Zhao Qi recovered, he saw the little emperor walking in, with a displeased expression on his face, "Zhao Qing, I heard that today is your birthday."

Zhao Qi didn't know what he meant, so he quickly got up and knelt down, and said respectfully, "See Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live."

Han Zhen helped him up, and said with a smile, "Aiqing doesn't need to be polite." He also thought that the name Aiqing was good, and thought he would call it that in the future.

Besides, Liu Changqing who was on the side was also taken aback, and quickly knelt down, saying, "Long live the emperor."

Wang Fu and the servants at the door couldn't react, and it took a long time before they knelt tremblingly and shouted long live my emperor!

Only then did Han Zhen turn his head, and casually said, "Oh, so Liu Qing is also here." Then he said, "A few days ago, Yan Sheng said that Liu Qing often visited the prime minister's residence, but I still don't believe it."

Liu Changqing was shocked, the emperor meant that he suspected that he had formed a party with Feilu for personal gain too much?Quickly kowtowed and said, "The emperor forgives the sin, I just heard that today is the prime minister's birthday, so I specially came here to celebrate the birthday with congratulatory gifts! It's not collusion with the courtiers as Mr. Yan said. I beg the emperor to investigate clearly!"

Han Zhen nodded indifferently, and said, "I'll have a look at what congratulatory gifts you gave. I'll reward Zhao Aiqing with something later, but I can't be compared to you."

Liu Changqing was flustered, how could he say this?If the emperor finds out, it's fine to convict him of evil intentions, but what if he gets Feilu involved?

At this time, I heard Zhao Qi say, "Master Liu only heard about Weichen's birthday at night, how could he have time to prepare a gift, and was preparing an inscription for Weichen, when the emperor came."

Han Zhen said oh, and said to Liu Changqing, "Since there are ministers in the court, I will pay more attention to it in the future. If there is no important matter in the prime minister's house, there will be less contact. The impeachment of those officials who save me is annoying. .”

Liu Changqing knelt on the ground, bowed his head and said nothing.

Zhao Qi continued, "This humble official knows how to measure, so I will definitely not upset the emperor in the future."

Han Zhen frowned, a little unhappy.Wouldn't the Taifu think he was here to find trouble and get angry?He said, "Zhen will protect you well. Just beat those people up."

Only then did Zhao Qi glance at him, and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." Why did the little emperor suddenly change his mind and stand by his side?How strange.

Seeing Zhao Qi looking at him, Han Zhen grinned at him, looking childish.

After a while, Han Zhen said to Liu Changqing, "It's late at night, Liu Qing should go home first. I have something to discuss with Zhao Aiqing."

Liu Changqing said, "Resignation, my servant." Then he got up and retreated, but the palms under the wide sleeves were tightly clenched, and traces were carved.

Han Zhen stretched out his hand and waved away the people outside the door, and when he and Zhao Qi were the only ones left in the study, he said, "Teacher, why didn't you tell me your birthday, which made me rush over before I prepared the gift."

Zhao Qi said, "The court affairs are busy, and I can't remember clearly. If the servants didn't mention it, this day will pass by."

Han Zhen let out a sigh, and said again, "Then what does the master want, I will prepare it for you."

Zhao Qi thought to himself, this little emperor is really restless, and his meaning is unpredictable, so he shook his head, "I don't lack food, so I don't want to worry about the emperor."

Han Zhen looked at him disappointed. He missed Zhao Qi's arms holding him back then, but he knew that Zhao Qi had already been heartless towards him, so he could not help but lower his head and said, "Just tell me what the Taifu wants."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhao Qi replied flatly, without any emotion.

Han Zhen stood for a while, feeling bored, and said disappointedly, "I'm going back, Taifu pay attention to rest."

"Congratulations to the emperor."

Han Zhen turned around and walked out the door, immediately followed by guards, and the whole team left the mansion in a short while.

Only then did Zhao Qi heave a sigh of relief, and stretched out his hand to pull out the picture scroll that was pressed under the inkstone, casually put it on the top of the bookshelf, and pressed it up with the books on the side.

One trouble after another, before I could sleep well, the spy came again, saying that the clue was broken.

He was angry before, so he directly blamed the little emperor behind the scenes, but after thinking about it, it was too hasty to conclude that it was the little emperor with only one eunuch. Besides, although the little emperor was a bit incompetent and cowardly, he was not so stupid.

There is another explanation, that is, someone is obstructing it, implying to provoke the relationship between him and the little emperor. It would be better if both sides can lose in the fight.

Zhao Qi had some candidates for this person hiding in the dark, but the secret agent's clues were broken, and he couldn't confirm who it was.

The next day, Wang Zheng visited the prime minister's mansion, carrying a bunch of congratulatory gifts, saying that they made up for yesterday's, and blamed Zhao Qi for not saying it earlier, because it was all a family that made it so strange.

Seeing that he seemed to have something to say, Zhao Qi dismissed the attendants behind him and said, "What's the big brother-in-law looking for me this time?"

But seeing Wang Zheng ponder for a while, he said, "Oh, my sister is not a lucky one, she passed away before she got married to the prime minister's mansion. Fortunately, the adults don't dislike my sister for bringing her into the mansion, but after these days, Seeing that the adults seem to be unwilling to continue the string..."

Zhao Qi probably knew what he was doing here, so he asked, "Brother-in-law means..."

Wang Zheng also stopped beating around the bush and said, "Caomin knows that adults value love and righteousness, but this unfilialism has three major causes, and Caomin doesn't want to let adults bear such a crime for my sister. Caomin's family has a cousin of the right age. The looks are all excellent, so it's better to ask the adults to accept them as concubines, which can be regarded as helping my sister to do something for the adults."

Zhao Qi knew that Wang Zheng was implying that the two families would increase their relatives. After all, Wang Manman had passed away, and the Wang and Zhao families naturally had no ties. If they took another concubine, it would be different.

Zhao Qi thought for a while, then said, "Brother-in-law, let me think about it."

After Wang Zheng left, Zhao Qi sat alone in the study and practiced calligraphy.In fact, most of the time he spends time practicing calligraphy to think about things. He always likes cursive cursive, not sticking to one pattern, he draws freely while thinking about those troublesome things.

Originally, Zhao Qi really wanted to get rid of the little emperor, but after these days, the most urgent task is not him, but the person who hides in the dark and shoots cold shots from time to time.Marriage to the Wang family originally meant a closer relationship. Now that Wang Manman is dead, the two families have much less communication. It would be feasible to marry that cousin.

But Zhao Qi is used to being casual, and doesn't like other people's arrangements.This time even the cousin was going to marry back without seeing him, I don't know if it's good or bad, I always feel like I'm being led by the nose, and I can't help feeling annoyed.Could it be that he, Zhao Qi, still relies on women to get things done?What a joke!

Absolutely impossible!

Zhao Qi reached out and waved the pen and inkstone on the table, his dark eyes were bottomless, and a low air pressure exuded from his whole body.

So what about being the prime minister?In the face of Liu Changqing's confession, it was clearly unintentional, but there were countless reasons why he couldn't tear himself apart; in the face of Han Zhen's repeated visits, he clearly disliked him, but he could only deal with it with Yan Yuese and hypocrisy; in the face of Wang Zheng's concubine Proposal, clearly unwilling, but unable to refuse directly.

Zhao Qi curled his lips into a smile, and the coldness deepened.One day, the villain who killed his wife and 'child' will be skinned, boned, and chopped into pieces!You must stand on a high place, overlooking the world, and never let others bully you!
