In the evening, Xiao Chen sent Yan Zi'an to Diao Chan's dormitory and brought Diao Chan to the imperial study.

The imperial study is about a few miles away from Diao's dormitory, that is, the queen's palace.

Diao Chan did not bring any palace maids, but came to the imperial study alone under the guidance of Yan Zi'an.

It's just that her arrival has caused quite a stir.

Although Diao Chan has lived in the palace for a while, because of her personality, she rarely shows up, so not many people in the palace know her.

All the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace knew that the new emperor was less than seventeen years old, and there was not a single concubine in the harem.

Now that a fairy-like person comes to Xiao Chen, it will inevitably make them think more.

In the boring palace, gossip became their only pleasure.

"Do you think that the woman that Grandpa Yan brought with him is our future queen?"

"Very likely, I saw that fairy enter the imperial study, and General Li Yuanba did not stop him. ”

"The guards let them go directly, and they entered the imperial study without even checking, except for His Majesty's beloved woman, who else has this privilege?"

"Wow, this woman is so happy, she can be so favored by Your Majesty, if Your Majesty can treat me like this one day, I am willing to live for ten years. ”

", with your flower-like face, you still want to be favored by Your Majesty?"

Diao Chan heard the talk of the palace maid and eunuch the moment she stepped into the imperial study, her pretty face was slightly red, but she didn't say anything, and walked straight into the imperial study.

In the imperial study, Xiao Chen was discussing the government with Di Renjie and Jia Xu.

Seeing this scene, Diao Chan was slightly stunned.

Then she turned around and prepared to leave first, but was stopped by Xiao Chen.

"Diao Chan, the matter here can be dealt with soon, you just wait here for a while!"

Hearing this, Diao Chan stopped, then found a seat and sat down quietly.

Jia Xu and Di Renjie glanced at each other, they didn't approve of such a thing as a woman listening to political affairs on the sidelines.

But they also knew the special relationship between Diao Chan and Xiao Chen, so they didn't say anything, but shifted the topic back to government affairs.

"Your Majesty, the Black Ice Platform originated from the intelligence organization in Shangguan Qingmeng's hands, so it is better for us to adapt it as soon as possible, so as not to leave any shadows in Lingyun Firm!" Jia Xu suggested.

The position of the Black Ice Platform in the imperial court is extremely important, it can be said to be the eyes and ears of the emperor, if it cannot be fully controlled, it will become the most powerful tool for Lingyun Commercial Bank to make profits.

Xiao Chen nodded and said, "Tell Wang Yue to let him strengthen the scrutiny of the members of the Black Ice Terrace, and kick out those who can't be absolutely trusted." ”

"In addition, let Wang Yue select a group of shrewd sergeants from the army to fill the Black Ice Platform, and disrupt and reorganize the original structure of the Black Ice Platform. ”

For Shangguan Qingmeng, Xiao Chen also maintained enough vigilance against her, and the two sides were more of a cooperative relationship.

This woman's shrewdness made Xiao Chen feel frightened, how could he trust her?

Next, Di Renjie and Jia Xu reported to Xiao Chen on the construction of the army.

In the end, the two of them informed him of the time of the enthronement ceremony discussed by the Ministry of Rites, which was seven days later.

"Wenhe, after leaving the palace, tell the palace gate guards that a few people will come to me in the next few days, so that they must not be hindered and let me go directly. ”

The others Xiao Chen are not worried, but Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and Xun Yu are only martial arts cultivators, and judging from the current strength of the guards in the palace, they can't enter at all without Xiao Chen's permission.

After Jia Xu and the others left, Xiao Chen stretched his waist, walked to Diao Chan who was sitting on the chair, and said with a smile: "I've kept you waiting for a long time." ”

Diao Chan stood up, shook his head and said, "No, Your Majesty has to deal with state affairs." ”

Xiao Chen didn't say anything more, and gently pulled up Diao Chan's jade hand and said, "Let's go, let's go to Xiaohuang Mountain together." ”

Diao Chan was slightly stunned, as if she was a little unaccustomed to Xiao Chen's movements, she struggled slightly, but she did not break free of Xiao Chen's hand, so she had no choice but to give up.

Seeing this, Xiao Chen also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and if he didn't refuse, it meant that there was a play.

His relationship with Diao Chan has always been strange, he likes Diao Chan, and has expressed it more than once, but Diao Chan has never responded positively.

Diao Chan is the kind of character that is moody and invisible, Xiao Chen can't see her mind at all, and in desperation, he can only take the initiative.

Fortunately, judging from the current situation, the future is still very bright.

Holding Diao Chan's hand like this, the two came to the outside of the imperial study.

The eunuchs and palace maids who saw this scene were even more convinced of their previous guesses, and secretly glanced at Xiao Chen and the others with ambiguous eyes one by one.

This time, Diao Chan was even more shy, and just wanted to forcibly pull out the jade hand, but Xiao Chen coughed lightly, and those eunuchs and palace maids dispersed in an instant, leaving only Li Yuanba, a guy who didn't understand the amorous feelings.

Li Yuanba has always been Xiao Chen's personal guard, and where Xiao Chen is, he is basically where he is.

"Ahem, Yuanba, I don't need you to follow me today, I'll go around with Diao Chan, you go back first!"

Seeing Li Yuanba standing in place stupidly, Xiao Chen couldn't help but take the initiative to drive people away.

However, Li Yuanba didn't seem to understand what Xiao Chen meant, and asked in a sneering manner: "Your Majesty, if I leave, what will you do if you are in danger?"

Xiao Chen was angry, and said angrily: "Don't worry, I just go to Xiao Huang Mountain, with your strength, even if I really encounter any danger, can't you arrive as soon as possible?"

Li Yuanba scratched his head, feeling that what Xiao Chen said made sense, so he left.

Diao Chan watched Li Yuanba leave, covered his mouth and chuckled: "Yuanba is very loyal, Your Majesty is not afraid of breaking his heart if he drives him like this?"

Xiao Chen said helplessly: "What does it mean to hurt his heart, it seems that the two of them are quarrelling, Yuanba is a sincere person, there are not so many things." ”

Diao Chan shook his head and smiled: "Your Majesty, you can let go now!"

If it was before, Xiao Chen would definitely let go of his hand after Diao Chan finished speaking, but this time not only did he not let go, but he held it tighter.

He turned his head to stare at Diao Chan's eyes, and said affectionately: "I won't let go, not only will I not let go now, but I will hold it for a lifetime, you can't escape!"

The moonlight was a little dim, but Diao Chan's eyes were extremely bright, and she looked directly into Xiao Chen's eyes.

At this moment, the distance between them was less than twenty centimeters, and they could even feel each other's breathing.

After a long time, Diao Chan sighed and said, "Your Majesty, you are the emperor of the Great Zhou, how can you hold a woman's hand for the rest of your life!"

For this question, Xiao Chen was a little silent.

As Diao Chan said, he is destined to have only one woman in his life.

Even if he had this intention, the courtiers would keep advising him.

If the emperor has only one woman, how can he ensure the continuation of the royal bloodline?

Diao Chan took advantage of Xiao Chen's stunned moment, pulled out the jade hand that was being held, and then said leisurely: "Your Majesty, we all need to calm down." ”
