After a quarrel with the emperor, the queen was so angry that she called the fifth prince over and scolded her again.
It is said that the queen scolded the fifth prince for being idle and idle, and worse than a sick person.
The fifth prince dejectedly went back to study behind closed doors. All his daily gambling games were banned and he was not allowed to leave the palace.
It is said that the queen wanted to call the prince, but the emperor's eunuch replied that the important tasks entrusted to the prince were urgent and could not be delayed.
When it came to matters involving the prince, the queen still knew how to behave, so she did not disturb the prince. She only called the princess over and scolded her, asking her to be virtuous and sensible in caring for her husband and raising her children.
After hearing the quarrel between the emperor and the empress, she seemed to mention the third prince in words. Concubine Xu immediately fell ill again. The emperor even went to visit him personally. However, the third prince had no reaction. He was very busy now, and the emperor even specially gave him a room.
Palace, let the ministers concentrate on handling the state and county policy examinations.
Maybe it was because this quarrel between the emperor and the empress involved another prince besides the prince. The atmosphere in the palace was not only tense, but also a bit strange. There seemed to be an undercurrent surging among the many palaces, which made people cautious - and not everyone was.
Cautiously, Zhou Xuan, who lived outside the palace, excitedly asked to see his majesty.
"Your Majesty, have you seen the gift from King Qi?" he asked.
The three armies left behind by the iron-faced general and the New Year's gift from King Qi arrived a few days ago. The emperor led hundreds of officials to reward the three armies, and the gift from King Qi was thrown directly into the treasury.
The emperor said casually: "You can choose what you want."
"Your Majesty is so kind to me." Zhou Xuan smiled and moved forward, "But I don't want this. Your Majesty, why don't we take a look at the gift sent by King Qi. If it is expensive, it is transgression, if it is shabby, it is disobedience, and then put all the gifts together."
The country has been completely resolved."
The emperor dropped the pen in his hand heavily: "Can you have anything else in your mind besides this? Did General Iron Mask tell you that haste makes waste? I have told you how many times,
You can't be hasty. Now that the situation has been decided, you can take your time to figure it out - why don't you listen? What are you doing every day now? Have you gone to make trouble with Prince Qi again? "
Zhou Xuan shrank back: "There is no trouble, we are just competing -"
The emperor glared: "You like martial arts so much? Why don't you compete with the Iron Mask General?"
Zhou Xuan smiled: "Your Majesty, the general is old, I can't bully others——"
The emperor chuckled: "Hey, so Chen Danzhu is young and you can compete with her?"
It has been so long, but His Majesty still remembered it. Zhou Xuan explained with a smile: "Your Majesty, I asked the woman to compete with Chen Danzhu, not me."
The emperor raised his hand as if to fight: "Do you still want to end it personally? You are really good at fighting with girls!"
Zhou Xuan was not afraid of being beaten by the emperor. He knew that what he asked for would not be realized, so he jumped up and backed away: "Your Majesty, please do your business. I have resigned."
Eunuch Jinzhong swung his fly whisk and chased him: "Little Marquis, please leave quickly and don't cause any trouble."
Zhou Xuan exited the palace and extended his hand to support Eunuch Jinzhong who was following behind him: "Slow down."
Eunuch Jinzhong accepted his support calmly, and scolded him as if he were a descendant of his own family: "Why are you fooling around? Don't you know that His Majesty is angry?"
Zhou Xuan chuckled: "I just heard that your majesty was angry, so I came here to try. Maybe your majesty will destroy Qi in anger."
Eunuch Jinzhong glared at him helplessly and waved his hand: "Go and do other things quickly, let your majesty rest for two days."
"I'm going to see the fifth prince." Zhou Xuan smiled and left.
What are the five princes looking at? They are either watching a joke or fanning the flames. Eunuch Jinzhong looked at Zhou Xuan walking away and shook his head helplessly. When he returned to the palace, the emperor was still angry with himself and complained: "Everyone is careless, so they didn't let me."
Something to be happy about?"
Seeing that the emperor was so angry, well, it was indeed an opportunity. Eunuch Jinzhong thought of what General Ironface had sent to tell him, so he brought tea to the emperor, and then said: "The general said that Miss Danzhu is coming to see him, please your majesty."
Be accommodating."
The emperor was no longer angry and stared at Eunuch Jin Zhong: "Why did Chen Danzhu come to see him again?"
A single meeting on the road made the Iron-faced General go crazy in front of the civil and military officials. Why do you want to come to see him again?
Eunuch Jinzhong smiled and said, "I'm not sure. It seems to be delivering medicine to the general."
The emperor sneered: "Believe her lies." He paused and asked, "What's wrong with the general?"
Speaking of which, as soon as General Iron Mask came back, he went to the palace to cause a scene. Then the emperor gave him a room in the outer palace and let him rest inside. Then he was busy making plans to win soldiers, and then went out together to reward the three armies.
But he didn’t speak alone—
General Iron Mask has been out for so long. How is his health? Is he sick? Injured? But everything is okay? The emperor has not asked these questions yet.
Eunuch Jinzhong looked at the emperor's face and said hurriedly: "It's okay, it's okay. As soon as I heard about it, I asked the imperial doctor to see him. The imperial doctor said that the general is fine."
The emperor then breathed a sigh of relief and scolded Chen Danzhu: "I knew she was full of lies." He sighed heavily and followed Eunuch Zhong and said, "This girl didn't come to see General Iron Mask at all. She just used this name to come.
I want to enter the city, I want to enter the palace to find Jin Yao and Xiurong."
Eunuch Jinzhong nodded in agreement: "Old slave thinks so too." Then he smiled helplessly, "Miss Danzhu is really capable of using whoever she wants to catch anyone anytime, anywhere. I admire her too."
The emperor sneered and became interested again, saying: "I won't let her get what she wants. Let her come, and then come to me. Doesn't she want to deliver medicine to General Iron Mask? I will deliver it for her, and I will send her out after delivery.
, she doesn’t want to see anyone."
Let’s see what Chen Danzhu does!
Thinking of what Chen Danzhu would look like, the emperor suddenly felt much happier.
When Zhu Lin said it was time to enter the palace, Chen Danzhu immediately ran through the city gate with a large baggage and came to the palace gate to ask for an audience.
The little eunuch Aji brought her in with a gloomy look. Looking at the bundle Zhulin was carrying, he persuaded her that it would be against etiquette to check her and not bring her in.
"Is it compatible?" Chen Danzhu waved his hand and ignored, "Your Majesty let me in, it means it is compatible."
She carried her baggage and walked into the palace. She kowtowed to the emperor on the dragon throne from a distance, and the emperor said goodbye.
Chen Danzhu kowtowed: "My lord, thank you for your kindness." Then he raised his head and explained that he was here to see the Iron-faced General. He pointed at the baggage and said, "Here are all medicines."
The emperor didn't even check what kind of medicine could be used to carry the burden, and simply nodded: "I understand, put it down, I will have someone give it to the general."
After saying this, I saw that the girl looked uneasy, and she was not honest even when she was sitting on her knees.
"Your Majesty." She raised her head, "I still want to see the general."
The emperor said coldly: "What do you want to see? The general is a minister of the imperial court. I can convey your medicine and your greetings."
Chen Danzhu responded: "I know that Your Majesty can convey medicine and greetings, but there are some things that you cannot convey to me."
The emperor was happy and started to see what nonsense she made up this time. He took the tea from Eunuch Jinzhong, blew it gently, and asked: "Is there anything I can't convey to you?"
Chen Danzhu said: "Filial piety."
The emperor held tea in his mouth and asked with his eyes, "filial piety?"
"Yes." The girl kneeling in the palace had bright eyes, her expression was sincere and joyful, "The Iron-faced General is my daughter's adoptive father."
The emperor choked on the tea in his mouth and went straight to his nose. With a pop, he spurted the tea out and immediately coughed violently.
