Zhao Zongheng pursed his lips: "Go back to the palace."
Zhao Zongheng returned to Chengming Palace, lay down on the bed, but couldn't fall asleep for a long time. Whenever he closed his eyes, all he could think about was Si Ningchi, how she had sex under him last night, how seductive it was.
Eyes, soft to the bone throat.
Zhao Zongheng sat up for a long time before he suppressed his restlessness. He had no idea why some people would indulge in women and indulge in sexual pleasure, and he didn't even know how he came up with such a saying as "It's romantic to die under the peonies." p>
Now...
"Your Majesty?" Wang Chengxiang, who was standing guard outside, heard the movement in the house and said with some confusion.
"..." Zhao Zongheng lay down again and wanted to remove the gate of Fengwu Palace.
Zhao Zongheng's impatient thoughts were obviously hopeless. Since the Hehuan Palace, Zhao Zongheng has no time to enter the harem. Recently, there have been many disasters caused by spring floods. I thought it was just Ge Huihong who failed to rescue the disaster. p>
However, he did not expect that the funds allocated for disaster relief were involved in embezzlement, which resulted in the failure to cure spring floods and even caused riots. Bandits took the opportunity to cause chaos and robbed homes, leaving numerous murders.
Who would have thought that a small spring flood would eventually cause such a big stir, with several state officials being dismissed and investigated for a full half month.
"Mother, I heard that General Han led his troops to eliminate the bandits!" Su Yun ran in from the outside and informed Si Ningchi of the matter.
"It seems that the rogue rebellion is really serious, and General Han has to personally send troops." Si Ningchi raised her eyebrows secretly, sat on the small couch with her chin propped up, and counted the round pearls in the tray. In her mind, this time
The male protagonist Zhao Yuanzhen should have dealt with the rogue bandits on behalf of the emperor.
Because Han Yulang is dead, no one can lead the troops for the emperor, only Zhao Yuanzhen can go.
And when Zhao Yuanzhen left, he came back injured again, quite seriously.
In the end, of course, the heroine Si Qionglian accompanied him day and night and took good care of him, which warmed his heart~
Thinking about it now, it turns out that the plot that was supposed to exist has been completely destroyed without even realizing it. It’s really interesting!
I have no idea what the outcome will be next.
"Your Majesty, the little princess and Xu Zhaorong are here." Just as Si Ningchi was minding his own business, Fang Zhiyao and Xu Zhaorong walked in one after another from outside. They leaned over to greet Si Ningchi and said, "Have you met me?"
The Queen."
"Why did you two come here together?" Si Ningchi straightened up and shouted, calling Su Yun to serve tea, looking at the two of them and smiling.
"I met Xu Zhaorong at the door and learned that he was here to pay homage to the Queen, so we came in together." Fang Zhiyao responded with a smile.
The emperor granted Fang Zhiyao the right to enter and leave the palace freely. She went out to play a few times a few days ago, but she caught a cold when she came back. She stayed in his palace to recuperate. She was fully recovered in the past two days, so she couldn't wait to see her.
The queen.
Si Ningchi originally wanted to visit her, but was rejected. The little girl was afraid that the illness would make her sick and she refused to let the queen visit her.
In the end, I had no choice but to ask Suyun to give her some delicious food and let her keep it by herself.
"There have been a lot of things going on in the court recently, but it's boring to stay in the palace." Si Ningchi frowned slightly, seeming to be thinking about what he could have fun with.
"Concubine, I heard that the emperor has not slept for several nights because of court affairs, and the empress doesn't go to see him?" Xu Zhaorong glanced at Si Ningchi and said in a low voice: "Even concubine Shu sent meals to the emperor, what's wrong with the empress?"
No rush at all."
Si Ningchi smiled immediately after hearing Xu Zhaorong's words. She knew these things, and she never thought about stopping them.
It's not necessary, after all, the meal she gave her was because of her compassionate heart.
Since she likes giving away so much, let her do it.
"The spring floods have a great impact. What can we do by sending those useless things?" What the emperor lacks is not those things, but people who can share his worries and solve his problems.
"Xu Zhaorong, what rank is your father's official position?" Si Ningchi didn't think much about it at first, but when he looked at Xu Zhaorong, his heart suddenly moved and he asked sideways.
"To tell you the truth, my father is only a fifth-grade official and is not worth mentioning, let alone sharing the emperor's worries." Xu Zhaorong was stunned and quickly lowered his head in reply.
Si Ningchi raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this and said: "If you want to be promoted again, it is not appropriate for your family to be only a fifth-rank official. Tomorrow, I will mention this to the emperor and ask your father to accompany General Han to rectify the situation."
Rogue bandits causing trouble."
Si Ningchi looked at Xu Zhaorong and smiled and said: "Don't be afraid of hardship, officials are not the only ones who will be promoted."
Xu Zhaorong was shocked. In the past, she would have felt that her parents were old and not suitable for taking care of such things. After all, although her father was a junior official, at least he could not offend others and it was good to live a stable life.
But now...
Xu Zhaorong lowered his head and thanked me respectfully: "I would like to thank the Queen for your support."
It is so simple to follow a fifth-grade official, and there is no need to make too many arrangements. He is just following him to run errands. In addition to Han Yulang, there is also the imperial envoy, who is going to deal with the Chunluo corruption case and the state government's inaction case.
Xu Zhaorong’s father really just went to run errands.
I am afraid this matter will take several months. Fortunately, the weather is getting warmer, the rain has decreased, and the spring floods have been controlled. The next step is to rescue and resettle the people. It is only a matter of time.
With General Han personally leading the troops, the rogue bandits would not cause any trouble, and Zhao Zongheng could finally take a breather.
"I met Concubine Yuan in the imperial garden yesterday." Xu Zhaorong talked to Si Ningchi about the harem. She raised her eyes slightly and said, "Concubine Xian was also admiring flowers in the garden, and they met and talked.
For a long time."
"Concubine Yuan is in good health. It's time to move out of Yufu Palace. However, Yuming Palace was burned beyond recognition. It will probably take a year and a half to rebuild it." Si Ningchi narrowed his eyes slightly and said softly.
She lightly curved her lips and said with a smile: "Let Concubine Yuan live in Yu'an Palace."
"Yu'an Palace? That's not Concubine Rong..." Xu Zhaorong was shocked when he heard this.
"Yeah~"
Si Ningchi smiled and sighed with a rather expectant smile: "I really want to see if Concubine Rong can still cause trouble."
Xu Zhaorong was stunned when he heard the Queen's words. Why did he feel that the Queen was looking forward to it so much?
It seems that I really want this matter to cause a fuss.
Xu Zhaorong was silent. As expected, only the Queen had such courage. Others were afraid of what they wanted to avoid, but the Queen was better off and just went ahead.
The empress's decision to let Concubine Yuan move into Yu'an Palace caused quite a controversy. Concubine Yuan had just recovered from her illness, so she didn't want to be stimulated any more. They were all implying that the empress was ruthless. Could this be a deliberate attempt to force Concubine Yuan to death?<
