Chapter 160: The Emperor (2)

Thinking of the past, Queen Ye was full of bitterness and sourness.

However, these secrets must not be told in the mouth, but can only be pressed to the bottom of the heart. Not only could she not reveal it, but she also swallowed her anger and had a pleasant face: "The emperor came to Yanfu Palace to accompany the concubines to lunch, and the concubines were grateful. It's rare for my sister to take Yuan Zhao into the palace once, and the concubine thought, I won't divide the table today, what does the emperor think? ”

The emperor smiled and approved: "The queen is thoughtful and thoughtful, just follow the queen's wishes!" ”

Empress Ye smiled on her face, but her heart was like swallowing a fly, uncomfortable and uncomfortable.

Out of the corner of Ye's eyes, he saw Queen Ye's smiling face, and secretly sneered in his heart.

The old grievances of the two sisters are too deep, and they are so old that people don't want to remember them anymore. She has been aggrieved, and Queen Ye can't think about it!

In front of the crown prince and others, even if the emperor has the heart to talk to the Ye family, he has to be a little scrupled.

There is a difference between monarchs and ministers, not to mention, the Ye family is still the identity of a minister's wife. As the king of a country, he must always maintain the dignity and dignity of the Son of Heaven. Therefore, the emperor glanced at Ye a few times and quickly looked away

Then, his gaze naturally fell on Chen Yuanzhao's body.

The emperor loves talents, and there are many young people among the generals who are reused. Among them, Ji Ze and Chen Yuanzhao are the most outstanding and the most eye-catching. If there are good things, it is inevitable to put the two together and judge them.

Ji Ze is Concubine Ji Xian's nephew, and Chen Yuanzhao is Empress Ye's nephew. In terms of identity, he is very close to the emperor.

In terms of official position, Ji Ze became the deputy commander of the guards and infantry troops. Responsible for guarding the Imperial City. Chen Yuanzhao led the Divine Guard Army, garrisoned the capital, and often led troops to expeditions. His prestige and reputation in the army are even better than Ji Ze's.

When it comes to saints, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the emperor trusts Chen Yuanzhao very much. There is almost no one inside and outside the court.

Chen Yuanzhao was only twenty years old, and he had already become a well-deserved leader among the young generals of the Great Yan Dynasty. It was only a matter of time before he led the Great Yan army like Lao An Guogong.

"Yuan Zhao, how has the training of recruits been recently?" The emperor asked kindly.

Chen Yuanzhao clenched his fists and replied: "Your Majesty, the recruitment of new recruits is only three months. The minister didn't dare to slack off, and he has been training urgently. It is expected that there will be another three months before it can be played. ”

The emperor smiled and said, "This is not the court. I just casually asked, I am the emperor and your uncle. You don't have to be so nervous, just take it easy. ”

Chen Yuanzhao replied. But his expression was not relaxed.

Condensed handsome face. It is like a knife, cold and fierce, and the momentum is overwhelming.

In the eyes of the emperor, not only did he not feel that Chen Yuanzhao was rude, but he appreciated it even more. Young people should be like Chen Yuanzhao, like a sword out of the sheath, shining brightly and sharp.

Compared with Chen Yuanzhao, the slightly short and fat prince. It can only be described in two words: mediocrity! The king of Chu was born delicate, filial and sensible. It's a pity that he is congenitally insufficient, and he has been suffering from small and small diseases

The emperor had a series of unknown secret thoughts in his heart, and he couldn't help but feel a little regret in his heart.

Even if it is the Son of Heaven, it is impossible for everything to go smoothly

Today, the emperor went to Yanfu Palace for dinner, and the imperial dining room naturally did not dare to be disdainful, and the imperial chefs tried their best to show their strengths. A variety of exquisite dishes are constantly presented.

However, every dish must be tested for poison with a silver needle, and then tasted by a eunuch, so after such a toss, the dish will already be cold. No matter how delicious it is, it will inevitably be greatly discounted.

The emperor and Empress Ye have long been used to it. The crown prince and the king of Chu were born and raised in the palace, and they were also accustomed to half-lukewarm dishes.

Ye Shi was not used to eating, and he lost his appetite after barely eating a few bites.

There are many rules for imperial meals in the palace, and one of the most important is that before the emperor puts the chopsticks, no one can put the chopsticks. The emperor stopped chopsticks, which means that this imperial meal is over, and no one wants to eat it anymore.

Such a royal meal, it is strange to be accustomed to eating and being full.

Chen Yuanzhao is not picky about hot and cold tastes. When leading the troops on the march, they can only eat dry food and drink cold water, and the imperial diet is much stronger than dry food.

After eating and sleeping silently, after a quiet lunch, everyone moved to the main hall to talk.

It stands to reason that the family of four of the emperor, queen, crown prince and king Chu should not be present to listen. Even if it is Queen Ye's own sister and aunt and nephew, they should avoid suspicion.

However, Queen Ye ignored this matter intentionally or unintentionally. The emperor didn't seem to notice these details, and even smiled happily: "The imperial meal made in the imperial dining room today is very suitable for my appetite, and it should be rewarded!" ”

The emperor spoke, and someone in the chamberlain around him immediately answered, and the reward would soon arrive in the imperial dining room.

Empress Ye said with a smile: "The emperor is in a good mood today, and whatever he eats is delicious in his mouth." ”

The emperor was not annoyed when he was teased, and laughed: "Sure enough, the queen knows my mind best." I came to Yanfu Palace after handling political affairs, and saw my good wife Jia'er, how could I be unhappy. ”

At this time, the emperor has lost the majesty of the Son of Heaven in the court, and is a little more easy-going.

Empress Ye looked at such an emperor, but she didn't feel much joy in her heart, but added a little sourness.

The emperor is so happy, is it because of the "good wife and good child" or because of the Ye mother and son?

However, the emperor's interest is so high, Queen Ye will naturally not be jealous, let alone pour cold water to sweep away the emperor's interest, and smile at the emperor's words: "The emperor is so happy, and the concubines are even more happy in their hearts." In the future, the concubines often called the prince and the king of Chu to come over, and when they sent someone to invite the emperor, the emperor should not miss him in Changle Palace. ”

Changle Palace is the residence of Concubine Ji Xian.

Queen Ye's half-truth joke, sure enough, the emperor was happy, and promised with a smile: "This will naturally not." The queen is my wife, and in my heart, no one can match the queen. ”

As he spoke, his gaze accidentally crossed Queen Ye and swirled around Ye's body.

Queen Ye secretly gritted her teeth in her heart, but her face showed a touched look: "The emperor has such a heart, and the concubine dies without regrets." ”

Ye, who had been smiling silently, opened his mouth: "The emperor is in good health, and he wants to live to live long live." Niangniang should also take good care of the phoenix body, and the emperor will carry the white head. ”

Queen Ye smiled: "Then inherit my sister's auspicious words." ”

Ye deliberately showed an embarrassed expression that wanted to speak and stopped.

"What is the dilemma for my sister?" Knowing that the Ye family intended to pretend to be pitiful in front of the emperor, Queen Ye had to answer the conversation.

Such a question was in the middle of Ye's arms, and I saw her frowning slightly and sighing: "It's not for Yuan Zhao's family affairs." (To be continued......)

PS: I haven't been tired for the past few days and don't want to move, but today I can be considered to have recovered my vitality. From today onwards, there will be two shifts a day, one with 2,000 words, and the other with 3,000 words. Because I've been recommending on it, it's not appropriate to merge it into one more, and it has to be two. If there are book friends who are not used to the two-thousand-word chapter, the content is too little, just read the two chapters together~O(∩_∩)O~
