This soft cry immediately alerted Chen Zhi outside.
"Queen, what happened?"
Zhao Qinglan looked at Li Chen looking at her with a smile and a confident look. She bit her teeth secretly with hatred and vented all her resentment on Chen Zhi.
"It's none of your business, don't ask random questions."
Chen Zhi was scolded and felt even more humiliated.
With nowhere to vent his anger, he turned around and cursed at the eunuch driving the carriage: "Drive the Fengchu steadily, and if you bump too hard and startle the Queen, I will cut your flesh!"
Inside Fengxun, the slightly swaying carriage was like a cage, making it impossible for Zhao Qinglan to escape even if he wanted to.
Sitting on Li Chen's lap, Zhao Qinglan felt like sitting on pins and needles.
She kept thinking about it, but every time she implemented her intention, Li Chen roughly pulled her back and sat down stronger.
"You, are you really not afraid that I will kill you!?"
Looking at Zhao Qinglan, who had red lips and white teeth, biting her teeth secretly, Li Chen said with a bad smile: "Is the queen willing?"
While he was talking, while Zhao Qinglan wasn't paying attention, Li Chen's big hand had already followed Zhao Qinglan's waist.
Zhao Qinglan's eyes widened.
She never expected that Li Chen would act so boldly.
Instinctively, he raised his hand through his clothes and pressed Li Chen's mischievous hand firmly. Zhao Qinglan said shyly: "Stop!"
Pressing against Zhao Qinglan's earlobe, Li Chen said softly: "I won't move, and you don't move either, okay?"
Sitting on Li Chen's lap, Zhao Qinglan was ashamed and angry.
She understood what Li Chen meant, which was to make her take the initiative to sit in his arms, and in exchange, the bastard's palms would stop moving around.
Seeing that Zhao Qinglan was speechless, Li Chen's big hand started to act mischievously again.
Zhao Qinglan was frightened. She quickly pressed her hand hard and said bitterly: "I promise you!"
Li Chen laughed triumphantly, hugged Zhao Qinglan and said, "This is so good."
Zhao Qinglan was so ashamed and angry that she turned her head away, not wanting to see Li Chen at all.
Feng Chu shook his head, but after only a moment, he arrived outside Qianqing Palace.
As soon as Feng Chu stopped, Chen Zhi immediately clasped his fists and said: "Queen, the Qianqing Palace has arrived."
Fenghu's door curtain opened, and it was Li Chen who came out first.
Chen Zhi's eyes turned cold when he saw this, and he immediately let go of his hands and stood aside.
"Why are you leaving? Come here and lie down so that I can catch you." Li Chen said coldly.
Chen Zhi was stunned for a moment, and then became furious.
He gritted his teeth and said, "A humble position has responsibilities, no, it's inconvenient!"
Li Chen sneered and said: "Responsibility? Your duty is to obey the orders of your father and me. Why don't you come over and lie down? If you delay my meeting with my father, I will immediately execute you in Lingchi."
Chen Zhi gritted his teeth so hard that if his eyes could kill, he would have killed Li Chen tens of millions of times by now.
Step by step, Chen Zhi walked under Feng Chu, and slowly leaned over. Before he could lie down, Li Chen stepped on his back.
Chen Zhi groaned, his body sank, and he lay down firmly.
He lowered his head to prevent Li Chen from seeing his hateful eyes. Chen Zhi dug his fingers into the floor tiles, and his nails were dug over, but even the pain and stimulation could not extinguish his heart.
anger.
After being defeated by Fengchu, Li Chen strode towards Qianqing Palace.
Outside the palace, the civil and military ministers and concubines of the harem were kneeling in a dense crowd, and everyone was praying for the emperor.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!"
As soon as he sang "Hey", the civil and military courtiers turned around at the same time, knelt down and shouted to Li Chen: "The prince is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old."
In front of the Qianqing Palace, it was late at night and the moon was dim.
A group of people representing the highest power of the empire knelt down in front of him in the political center of the empire. With such a scene, the roar of the mountains swept over his ears like ocean waves, and Li Chen's heart was full of pride.
Even if the prince is a thousand years old, it is so exciting. What will it be like if one day he ascends to the great treasure and all the people in the world shout long live?
Suppressing his inner emotions, Li Chen looked calm, strode to the door of Qianqing Palace, raised his hand and pushed the door open to enter the palace.
He is about to meet his nominal father, the supreme ruler of the empire of Great Qin, Emperor Dayan, and is about to be placed at the center of the most treacherous and dangerous political whirlpool in the empire.
In the Qianqing Palace, the lights were brightly lit, and all the first-rank officials in Beijing gathered together, as well as the royal family members.
If those people kneeling outside are the pillars of the Great Qin Empire, then these people are the backbone that supports the Great Qin Empire's thousands of miles of territory.
Li Chen casually glanced at the scene.
Zhao Xuanji, the chief minister of the dynasty, is currently the most treacherous leader. He has been involved in the government and the public for decades. He can no longer be described as deep-rooted. He can almost cover the sky with one hand.
Behind Zhao Xuanji are four of the five remaining bachelors in the cabinet, as well as the six major departments of official, household, ritual, military, criminal, and industrial affairs, the highest chief executive.
On the other side were the harem concubines, the fourth prince, the sixth prince, the eighth prince, the ninth prince and other princes and the princess, following the royal family members.
In the entire huge Qianqing Palace, such a large number of people were kneeling on the ground. In addition to the imperial doctors who were busy in the middle, there were also palace maids helping out. In the middle and outside of the main hall, there were a group of royal guards wearing double-winged wild goose feather uniforms guarding the sides like logs. .
In the entire palace, except for the Yulin Guards who were on patrol, anyone carrying a knife would be killed without mercy. The only exception to this rule was the Dongchang Jinyi Guards, who were also the emperor's most trusted executioners in the inner court.
Behind Li Chen, hurriedly walking, Queen Zhao Qinglan followed closely.
When the two entered the venue, the courtiers, concubines, princes and princesses were waiting for them, and they immediately bowed to say hello.
"I, my concubines, my sons and my ministers, have met the Queen and His Royal Highness."
Li Chen's eyes were like daggers, he pursed his lips and said nothing, and walked quickly towards the dragon bed.
"Your Highness, please be slow!"
A figure stood in front of Li Chen.
"The emperor is unconscious now and cannot see anyone. Please don't disturb the emperor's rest."
Li Chen narrowed his eyes, looked at the fifty-year-old man in front of him, and said, "Who are you?"
"Veteran Chen Huaizhi has been appointed as a bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion."
Chen Huaizhi's tone was calm and he didn't take the prince seriously at all.
Not only him, but everyone in the whole court didn't know that the current prince was a useless person who couldn't write or use martial arts.
Now if he stopped him, he would stop him. Not only would no one punish him, but he would also get praise from the chief minister if he turned around and pointed out his fault.
Li Chen sneered, raised his leg and kicked Chen Huaizhi on the abdomen.
How could Chen Huaizhi, an old man over fifty years old, be able to withstand the kick of the vigorous Li Chen?
After this kick, Chen Huaizhi immediately screamed and rolled to the ground.
"My father is in danger right now. As a son-in-law, how can I not be anxious? Why are you, an old man, standing in front of me? What are your intentions? Believe it or not, I will kill you on the spot and no one will dare to let you go. What the hell?"
Li Chen's angry curses silenced the entire Qianqing Palace.
Everyone looked at the formerly useless prince in horror, as if they were seeing a stranger.
No one could imagine that the prince would dare to kick a cabinet minister in public.
Chen Huaizhi had read the books of sages all his life, but he could not bear such shame and humiliation. He lay on the ground, pointed at Li Chen and roared: "You are still just a prince, but you treat the court ministers so cruelly. How can you inherit the throne as an adopted crown prince with such a corrupt moral character?" The old minister will definitely remonstrate to the emperor and depose you as the crown prince!"
As soon as these words came out, Li Chen's murderous intent skyrocketed.
He stared at Chen Huaizhi and said coldly: "Old man, just wait. We will see whether you die or I am crippled later!"
After saying that, he walked straight to the dragon couch.
The imperial doctors who were kneeling in front of the dragon couch immediately gave up their positions.
Li Chen knocked his knees to the ground, looking at the Emperor Daxing who was as pale as paper gold and as angry as a gossamer on the dragon couch, he immediately began to fall into the drama.
With his eyes red and his nose sore, Li Chen held the emperor's thin and cold hand and choked with sobs: "Father, my son is here."
On the dragon bed, Emperor Daxing's eyelids trembled as he closed his eyes tightly and slowly raised them.
The cloudy eyes saw it was Li Chen, he opened his mouth and said hoarsely and slowly: "You are here..."
"I... am extremely ill and my time is running out."
As the drama reached its depths, Li Chen didn't know if he was affected by his previous feelings. He just felt a little sour in his heart. He said softly: "Father, you are in good health and recovering from illness. You are the true Dragon Emperor. With God's blessing, you will definitely get well." "
The corner of his mouth twitched, as if he wanted to make a smile, and Emperor Daxing said weakly: "My body... I know, but right now, I can't swallow this breath... You just now were very... good."
"The current political situation is difficult, can you manage it well?"
