Chapter 129 Confrontation

 "Your Majesty, please take a look." King Lu slightly stretched out his hand to signal the person to open the box. The box, which required several strong men to lift, was opened, and there was such a large ice jade bed inside.

"This is a treasure that I have been searching for for three or four years, a rare ice jade bed that is rare in a thousand years." King Lu looked at Zhao Zongheng with a smile and said: "I heard that this jade bed not only has the effect of warming and nourishing the body, but also has the effect of warming and nourishing the body.

It will help people keep fit and prolong their lives."

"Is there such a magical thing?" Zhao Zongheng looked flat, looking at the jade bed that was still faintly cold and seemed to be not very interested.

"It is rumored that this thing has come to the world, attracting many demons and demons to fight for it, because those demons can warm up their spiritual consciousness and increase their power by sleeping on the jade bed for a long time." King Lu was slightly speechless and then added: "But it's all old news from the mountains and seas.

In today's peaceful and prosperous times, there is no talk of demons."

"This jade bed has lasted for thousands of years, and its effect must not be as powerful as it used to be. I just want to present it to the emperor so that the emperor can feel it." King Lu said, leaning down to worship Zhao Zongheng. The meaning in these words

It probably means that a minister like himself dares to compete with the emperor.

Only the emperor's dragon body can sleep peacefully for such a treasure.

King Lu's presentation of such a treasure also conveyed an attitude to the emperor, which can be said to be quite sincere.

The emperor who was sitting in the high position had a calm expression at first, but when he heard the words 'increase his power', he suddenly straightened his waist involuntarily, and his eyes briefly turned to Si Ningchi next to him.

.

Then he saw his queen staring intently at the ice jade bed presented by King Nalu.

Hiss——

With the Queen's demeanor, is it possible that this ice jade bed is real?

Does she want it?

Zhao Zongheng's heart skipped a beat. He looked at the queen and then at the ice jade bed with a hint of smile in his eyes: "King Lu is interested, I like this gift very much."

"It's just..." Zhao Zongheng raised his eyebrows slightly and said calmly: "I am in my prime, why do I need this thing to warm my body, so I gave it to the queen."

"The queen is a woman, and if she acquires precious jade and maintains her health, she will surely give birth to a son for me as soon as possible." Zhao Zongheng said it smoothly. After saying these words, the whole hall fell silent, and all the eyes turned towards her.

The emperor and the empress.

Even Queen Mother Cui turned her head and looked over, her eyes falling on Si Ningchi's belly. There seemed to be thousands of emotions surging in her eyes, and she couldn't help but clenched her hands hidden in her sleeves.

If everyone had heard rumors that the emperor loved the queen, then today it was the emperor who told them personally that he doted on the queen.

Not only did he pamper him, he even asked the queen to give birth to a prince for him.

That's the prince!

King Lu was shocked and looked at Si Ningchi with a bit of respect.

The queen herself may not be worthy of his attention or respect, but if she is the queen who can give birth to the emperor's eldest son, he would not dare to disrespect her.

Si Ningchi was caught off guard by Zhao Zongheng's sudden move. He silently turned his head to look at Zhao Zongheng and saw the pride on his face. His whole body seemed to be filled with an emotion. Look at the treasure I have collected for you! Like it.

!?

Si Ningchi: "..."

"I thank you, Your Majesty." She lowered her head silently and thanked her. Who knew that all she could think about was the cold jade bed in The Legend of the Condor Heroes...

Is she still weird?

Did this cold jade bed go to the wrong set?

Why does it appear here!

In the end, she just looked at her twice, so why did the emperor suddenly reward her?

"Hahaha, the emperor and the empress are so affectionate and enviable." King Lu was also discerning. Even though he praised loudly, since the emperor accepted it, it was the emperor himself who gave the ice jade bed to the empress.

It’s not a problem if you keep it.

Being able to hear about the emperor's heir from the emperor's mouth is more exciting than anything else!

If the Queen is really able to give birth to the Emperor's eldest son, he will definitely be the one who gave birth to the Emperor's eldest son.

King Lu was looking forward to it so much. At this moment, he was praising the emperor and the queen endlessly. Empress Dowager Cui's face became more and more ugly, as if there was a ball of air in her chest with nowhere to vent, and the eyes she stared at Si Ningchi became more and more unkind.

.

Si Ningchi had a natural look on his face. He was eating and drinking when he should, and he didn't take Empress Dowager Cui's cannibalistic eyes to heart at all.

"Your Majesty, why is it that the Holy King is not present at such a lively banquet today?" Seeing that the banquet was halfway through, these few glasses of wine made people's heads become hot and their courage increased. The atmosphere was just right and King Lu finally spoke.

Business.

"King Lu, please forgive me. The emperor's uncle was assassinated and injured a few days ago and is unable to move." Zhao Zongheng did not show any displeasure when King Lu mentioned this matter. He said in a calm and natural tone: "When dealing with some difficult things, it is inevitable to get hurt."
"Uncle Emperor will be well in two days. It won't be too late to see you again." Zhao Zongheng's tone was flat, and his words made the audience in the hall suspicious.

The Holy King was assassinated?

How come they never heard anything about it?

The ministers looked at the emperor's expression vaguely. For a moment, they couldn't tell whether what the emperor said was true or just an excuse to deal with King Lu. The Holy King was in the capital. If even the Holy King could be injured, it would definitely be wrong.

Little things.

There shouldn't be any leakage. If the emperor is just making excuses, then why?

Seeing that the emperor treated King Lu so affectionately, it didn't seem like he wanted to antagonize King Lu. He accepted the two beauties and the ice jade bed. Everyone looked at it and was afraid that the next step would be to talk about it.

The holy king and the little princess are about to get married.

This step by step approach to win over King Lu was very similar to the emperor's method, but this last step showed his intention to shirk, which immediately made it impossible for those ministers to understand the emperor's intentions.

"Is this happening?" King Lu was also surprised, frowning slightly and asked: "The emperor dares to assassinate under his feet, the protection in this palace is a bit weak."

"It doesn't matter." Zhao Zongheng said in a low voice in a calm tone: "You and I are just here to die."

"When has my throne ever been secure?" Zhao Zongheng said with a slight change of tone, looking down at King Lu and saying, "If King Lu can stay by my side, I can sit back and relax."

"How honored I am to be able to serve the emperor!" King Lu was moved when he heard Zhao Zongheng's words, and said with a smile: "It's just that I still have a wife and children at home, and this precious daughter is my biggest support in this life."<

/p>

Zhao Zongheng responded with a slight smile and narrowed his eyes. This round of invisible confrontation came to an end. Zhao Zongheng deliberately did not mention the marriage and only asked King Lu to stay. King Lu's attitude was very clear. He could stay, but his daughter must

Marry the Holy King.

The banquet ended, and on the surface it was a lively and joyous celebration.
