Knowing that Zhao Qian had not seen his son for many years and was missing him terribly, Zhao Yan hurriedly took Zhao Qian to the harem first.
"Queen, queen, look who's coming! Hahaha!"
Hou Chang had just stolen the military talisman and sent it out yesterday. He had been thinking about it all day long when he couldn't eat and drink. Suddenly he heard Zhao Yan's laughter coming from far away. As soon as he stepped out of the palace gate, his eyes turned red.
"Qian'er!"
Zhao Yan released his hand and said, "Go."
Zhao Qian immediately rushed towards his mother, and the mother and son hugged each other and cried.
It took a while for the tears of reunion to stop flowing. He then wiped his face and asked, knowingly: "Your Majesty, why is Qian'er here?"
Zhao Yan patted his son on the shoulder and said with a little pride: "This boy actually had the ability to escape from the Qin State's snare. I am very relieved."
"Escape? Escape back! If the proton absconds, won't King Qin want to hold him accountable?"
Queen Chang looked frightened and frightened, so Zhao Yan took her over and comforted her: "Queen, relax, whether Qin will fight Zhao or not has nothing to do with Qian'er. Can he succeed from Qin?" Come back, just in time to let me free my hands and feet."
Zhao Qian interjected at this time, "Father, my son is unworthy, and you and your mother have to worry about it. Now that the military situation is urgent, father should first discuss the strategy of guarding Qin with the ministers."
"Haha, yes, I have improved a lot compared to before. It doesn't matter, the border military information is reported three times a day. When the information is detailed, it will not be too late to decide on a strategy. How can it be more important than the reunion of my family?"
Hearing Zhao Yan's expression of emotion towards the Gu family, Chang Hou didn't know whether he was really moved or something else. His soft and boneless body was close to her, and she exhaled through her small mouth. Ruo Lan leaned close to Zhao Yan's ear, "Your Majesty, for the sake of this For Qian'er's sake, I won't care if you went to Mingzhu Pavilion again yesterday. Tonight, um~"
A warm current arose in Zhao Yan's heart, but was soon replaced by doubts: How did I get exposed?
So he asked: "Queen, could it be that Guo Kai betrayed me?"
Changhou pretended to be angry and slapped his chest with her delicate hands, "Okay, it was indeed Guo Kai who helped you hide this from me."
Zhao Yan grabbed her hand directly, with a very serious look on his face, "Queen, if Guo Kai didn't tell you, then where did you know about it?"
"I accidentally heard someone from the palace talking about it. If I hadn't happened upon you returning to the palace secretly in the early morning yesterday, I would have been kept in the dark by you and Guo Kai."
"In the palace... um..." Zhao Yan muttered and put the woman down, thought for a moment, and said to Zhao Qian, who was still standing there, "What are you doing standing there stupidly? Go to the city to buy new clothes with your token. In your own mansion, gather the servants from the old mansion and visit the elders of the clan. You have a lot to do."
"Yes, I'll go right away, father."
"Queen, I still have something to do, so I'll come with you tonight."
After Zhao Qian retreated, Zhao Yan also explained to the queen and left the harem in a hurry.
When Zhang Hou saw the person completely disappear from her sight, her lower body went limp and she almost fell over. She covered the two lumps on her chest and whispered to herself: "Haha, it's over. As long as today is over, this matter will be settled." He died on Zhao Jia. Ha~ He is definitely dead."
King Zhao stepped out of the harem, waved his hand, and several Longtai guards appeared.
"Deploy a team of people to monitor the maids and chamberlains in the queen's palace. If there is any situation, priority will be given to capturing those alive."
"No." The Longtai guard disappeared in an instant.
Who has the ability and motive to infiltrate the queen?
With such suspicion in his heart, Zhao Yan walked back to his Longtai Palace.
…
Gongzijia's Mansion
Ever since Zhao Jin's stunning dance took away three souls and seven souls, Zhao Jia vividly and truly explained what it means to "make one haggard because of Yi". It only lasted about ten days, and the whole person shrank and became as thin as
He fell down, his eye sockets were sunken and black and his face was withered and lifeless.
"Sir, it's a disaster, it's a disaster, it's a disaster!" Zhao Wei ran around the house in a panic and rushed in front of Zhao Jia.
"Sir, trouble, Zhao Qian is back."
Zhao Jia acted as if he hadn't heard anything and said lightly, "Oh, brother Qian is back."
"No, young master, please give me some reaction~ That's Zhao Qian! He will compete with you for the throne when he comes back."
After hearing this, he sneered, "How can he talk nonsense? How can a useless person with no ambitions have the ability to compete with me?"
"Sir, Zhao Qian's indulgence in wine and sex for the past five years was all just an act, just to escape from Qin today. Young master, this is enough for Zhao Qian to pay attention to you. Not to mention, your Majesty, the Queen,
Guo Kai, these three all support Zhao Qian!"
On the surface, Zhao Wei warned earnestly, but in his heart he disagreed: Oh, son, actually I also support Zhao Qian. Who said that even if you ascend the throne, it is impossible for my family's fiefdom to change from a generation area to a central area.
"What did you say?! Father?" Zhao Jia finally had some reaction.
Zhao Wei continued: "The Qin State wanted to raise troops to investigate Zhao Qian's absconding, but the king did not hesitate at all. He took Zhao Qian directly to see the queen to talk about family ties, without even asking about the war. Can't you tell who the king is looking for in his heart?
?
Moreover, Young Master, regardless of your age, reputation, or talent, you should have been the Crown Prince a long time ago. Why is it still unresolved? Do you really not know the reason?"
Zhao Jia immediately stood up angrily and cursed without hesitation, "A man who prostitutes a woman has misled the country's demon queen! Jia will definitely kill you sooner or later!"
After saying these treacherous words, he seemed to wake up from his confusion and ordered: "Zhao Wei, take my seal from the master and contact each family and invite them to have a banquet at my residence tonight."
"Yes, sir."
Zhao Wei turned around to leave, but Zhao Jia stopped him.
"I will never forget your daughter's affairs. If she cannot be found in Handan, she will be searched by the whole country of Zhao. If she is not found by Zhao, she will be searched by the whole country. I will definitely give you an explanation."
"Wei Wan's death is not enough to repay Young Master's great kindness!"
After Zhao Wei knelt down and saluted with emotion, he left the Young Master's Mansion in short steps.
Soon, dusk began to fall in Handan, and all the famous nobles in the city were entangled. Because this afternoon they received invitations to banquets from two young masters.
So, whose house should we go to?
"Tell me, how will these families choose, sir."
In the Pearl Pavilion, the Chao Banshee has long been transformed into a maid, and she personally takes care of Lu Yan's needs.
The actions of Zhao Qian and Zhao Jia cannot be concealed from a deliberate trap. Chao Banshee is still very interested in tonight's multiple-choice question.
"Zhao Jia originally had a good hand, but unfortunately Zhao Yan held him back and couldn't play it. Now it's too late for him to try again." Lu Yan looked at the night of the forced landing and sighed for Zhao Jia, the miserable eldest son of the Zhao family.
.
Chao Banshee stood next to Lu Yan and rested her head on the window from a distance, "Sir, do you think they will all choose Zhao Qian?"
"Zhao Jia is still ordered to stay in seclusion and has no right to interfere in political affairs. There should not be many people who have the courage to go to Zhao Jia's residence for a banquet."
Hearing Lu Yan's words, she covered her mouth and smiled, and her laughter floated from the air.
"What are you laughing at?"
"I laugh because I don't know whether I should sympathize with Zhao Jia or Zhao Qian."
Lu Yan closed the window casually, walked back to the table and sat down, "They are all dead bones in the grave. If you want to sympathize, just count them together."
Seeing him sit down and spread out the map of the entire city of Handan, his eyebrows lightly furrowed, and he concentrated on thinking, the Chao Banshee sighed with regret in her heart and left the room consciously.
