Chapter 167: The Emperor's Heart

Qingwen and the others were naturally willing to serve the two elder brothers of the county lord with their hearts, but when they didn't see the county lord come back, they couldn't help but feel very lost.

I just feel that a few people have become abandoned in the deep palace.

When the two brothers entered the palace, Xiao Mingyue also specially instructed Qingwen, Caiwei and Yunzhu to bring some jewelry, skirts and snacks from Huaizhou City outside the palace.

Compared with the joy of receiving gifts, several people were more concerned about when Xiao Mingyue would return to the palace.

"Qingwen, Yunzhu, Caiwei, these two boxes of gadgets were brought to you by my sister!" Xiao Nanchuan pointed to the two large boxes of things that the little eunuch brought in.

"There are also ancient books and calligraphy and paintings, my sister specially asked me to bring "Rong Fat" to Miss Caiwei!" Xiao Beize said as he took it out of the box and handed it to Cai Wei.

"It's really "Grease"! This is a book detailing all the makeup and hair accessories of noble women from the Xia Dynasty to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Thank you, Sangongzi! Thank you, Second Son!" Cai Wei said excitedly after taking it.

"Originally, there was nothing on the market, but it was just something that my sister told me, how dare I disobey it? It just so happened that there was this book in the study of Mrs. Zhou's house, and no one could read it, Mingyue said that you have a lot of research on grooming, so I took it!" Xiao Beize said.

"I didn't expect the county lord to remember the slave and maid so much, and the slave dared to ask, when will the county lord come back?!" Cai Wei said.

"This is not in a hurry, Mingyue will definitely come back, but it is really not convenient now." Xiao Nanchuan said to a few people.

"By the way, I also have the scar removal cream that Mingyue gave to Miss Yunzhu here, which was made by her own hands, and she has already found someone to try it in the General's Mansion, and the effect is excellent! I heard that Miss Yunzhu's face was injured a few days ago, just use this!" Xiao Nanchuan said.

"Slave and maid, thank you to the county lord and the two sons!" Yunzhu thanked him, and then took it with both hands.

"The two sons are tired of hurrying! The slave and maid have already ordered someone to boil the bath water, and the little eunuch is waiting!" Qingwen said.

"There's Miss Lao Qingwen!"

"It's hard work!"

After speaking, the two went back to the room to change clothes and take a bath.

Then Yun Zhu looked at the things in the room and sighed: "I'll just say that the county lord is still worried about us, how could he forget about us, but although these things are good, they are not as good as being able to serve the county lord in person!"

"Yes! I don't know when our county lord will return?!" Cai Wei said.

"Since the county lord will not abandon us, then the county lord will definitely come back sooner or later, don't worry, I think the good days of our Mingyue Tower are still ahead!" Qingwen said.

So, several people picked out the things they gave to themselves, and sent people to send supper to Xiao Nanchuan and Xiao Beize.

Imperial Dining Room.

Several little palace maids were whispering about the handsome appearance of the two sons of the Xiao family,

One of the older ones said: "Have you seen it, one of the two elder brothers of Lord Xiao looks powerful, and the other looks handsome and chic, except for Your Majesty, I have never seen such a handsome two men!"

The other with darker skin said: I heard that the two sons are easy to get along with, and they are also very good to their wives at home! It's not like our majesty, I've never heard of a palace maid who has been favored!"

One of the young insides smiled and said: "Don't laugh, even if Your Majesty wants to favor which palace maid, it won't be your turn!" Besides, Your Majesty doesn't even want to go to Concubine Hui's place. In my opinion, His Majesty is the same to everyone except for the smiling face in front of the county lord!"

The older continued: "Yes! Even if the county lord is not in the palace now, His Majesty treats the two princes like foreign noble envoys. Also, Yunzhu was beaten a few days ago, and I heard that His Majesty personally went to Mingyue Tower to stand up for her!"

His skin darkened and smiled and said, "Your Majesty is out of the way for Yunzhu, and it is clearly for the county lord." Originally, His Majesty planned to make the county lord of Xiao the queen, and he didn't want to be disturbed by Zhen Miaoxia, and everything fell through. Your Majesty still has to get along with someone he doesn't like at all, and if he changes me, I feel aggrieved when I think about it!"

The young palace maid sighed: "Then what can be done, who will let the grandfather of the family be King Anrui!" If you are also the granddaughter of King An Rui, you can also be Your Majesty's concubine!"

The darkened skin said, "Me? I'm self-aware, unlike some people......"

"Ahem, ahem......" the older one gestured.

"Who should I be, it turned out to be Yuxiu Palace's poetry and chess, relying on his unfavored master, who came out to bite people again?" The darkened-skinned palace maid turned back to Shiqi and said.

"Didn't she be slapped a few days ago and grounded with her master? Why did you lift the ban so quickly!" The younger one said.

"You two don't talk about it, they are big celebrities around Concubine Hui, and they are careful to return to her master, then you are asking!" The older one said to the two.

"What do you say? Aren't you afraid of being punished? It's so unruly!" Shiqi rebuked angrily.

"What?!, your master and servant even dare to fight the people of Mingyue Tower...... But a few of us are not afraid of you, as the saying goes, this barefoot person is not afraid of wearing shoes, so it's a big deal to send us out of the palace. But you're different, if you really make a move, you're making a mistake for the second time, how can Your Majesty spare you? Besides, the two elder brothers of the county lord are in this palace, and they are not afraid to let them know if they make trouble, how did you treat Yunzhu!" The darker-skinned man said.

"That's it, it's just a blessing in Yuxiu Palace, not a queen! It's a lesson for this today, and a lesson for that tomorrow. If you have time, you might as well learn how to capture Your Majesty's heart!" Said the younger one.

"Shut up!" Shiqi said angrily.

"Let's go! lest she bite like a mad dog!" The young palace maid said.

"Okay, let's go!"

"Let's go!"

Shiqi looked at the few people who left, gritted his teeth with hatred, and wanted to go up to teach a few people a lesson, but he also tabooed his own situation, and he really made things bigger, and he was the one who suffered.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but complain in my heart Zhen Miaoxia, if it weren't for the fact that she had no city, was rude and domineering, and was jealous. How could he be teased by a few unpopular little palace maids here!

So the more I thought about it, the more annoyed I became, and the more I felt that my master was the 'Adou who couldn't be helped', and I was with the wrong person.

Thinking that as the saying goes, 'eggs can't be put in the same basket', and you can't hang yourself from a tree, since Zhen Miaoxia has no hope, it's better to give it a go, good birds choose trees to perch, and they should also find a good master!

So he came up with a plan and prepared to sell the lord for glory.

…………

Inside the Hall of Diligence.

Chen Xian was still sitting at the table and looking at the folds that came up, but he was absent-minded.

After sighing several times in a row, Zhao De guessed Chen Xian's thoughts, and knew why he was upset, so he stepped forward to comfort him and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, although the county lord didn't come back with him this time, but looking at it, it won't be too long, the county lord has been outside for a long time, and he will definitely miss the objects and people in this palace!"

When Zhao Gonggong said this, he deliberately accentuated the pronunciation of the word "person".

"You said it lightly, she brought me this letter, only a few short crosses, and only the last few words of these short crosses were related to me. Doesn't she understand that I think about her day and night, and worry about her all the time! Or has she changed her mind!" Chen Xian said.

Gonggong Zhao immediately stepped forward and poured a cup of tea for Chen Xian, and said with a smile: "I think it must be Your Majesty, you are too worried, and the relationship between you and the county lord for many years will not become." Even if the prince of Yuwen was courteous and sent a dowry, didn't the county lord agree!"

"Then she must still be angry with the widow!" Chen Xian said.

"The slave felt that the county lord had always been empathetic and tolerant, and he must have been angry with His Majesty for a long time now. But the slave dared to say that this girl's family always likes to be remembered by the people she likes, and it is the county lord's intention to keep it even!" Zhao Gonggong said on the side.

You mean...... Mingyue deliberately did this, so that I remembered her even more?!" Chen Xian said.

"The minion thinks ...... Nine times out of ten!" Zhao Gonggong bowed his head and said.

"Hearing you say this, the widow is a little enlightened! But what must be done to make the county lord return to the widow immediately and willingly! You can't go on like this!" Chen Xian said.

"The slave thinks that it is necessary to let the county lord know His Majesty's sincerity to her!" Zhao Gonggong said.

"What can you do? You might as well speak up!" Chen Xian said.

"Since Prince Yuwen has given a dowry and the county lord has not yet agreed, it is better for His Majesty to canonize the county lord immediately, so that the county lord will also have steps to come back!" Zhao Gonggong said.

"Canonization? Then, in your opinion, what is the good identity of the canonization of the county lord? Chen Xian looked at Zhao Gonggong and asked.

Gonggong Zhao smiled and said, "Just as Your Majesty thinks in your heart, the best status that a woman from the Chen Kingdom can get!"

When Chen Xian heard this, he couldn't help but laugh in his heart.

admired and said: "Zhao De, Zhao De, you are really a roundworm in the stomach of a widow!" I really know what's going on in the widow's belly!"

Gonggong Zhao lowered his head and smiled, and then said to Chen Xian: "Although this method is wonderful, it's just that King Anrui's side has to be appeased, and His Majesty on Concubine Hui's side should also take care of it more, otherwise I'm afraid of right and wrong!!"

"The widow has done his best to King Anrui, and he has no debt. From now on, the happiness of the widow cannot be arranged by others!" Chen Xian said coldly.

Looking at the resolute emperor, Zhao De already understood in his heart that even if the emperor had relied on King An Rui to gain power, but now he was firmly sitting on the top of this throne, and anyone who wanted to be at the mercy of it would be like a moth to a fire.

As for Zhen Miaoxia, who has no city mansion and is equivalent to falling out of favor as soon as she enters the palace, Gonggong Zhao no longer has any hope for her, and he knows even more in his heart that if he says a good word for her from now on, he may not be able to keep his status as a seventh-rank official on the emperor's chair!
