Zhao Zhen is not as idle as Li Zhang, there are countless government affairs that he needs to deal with every day, and this is still the result of the ministers of the political hall sharing it for him, otherwise the folds sent every day will be loaded into several large cars, and if Zhao Zhen himself is alone, even if he is tired, he will not be able to deal with so many things.

When Li Zhang came to the Vertical Arch Palace, what he saw at a glance was Zhao Zhen sitting behind the bookcase to deal with the folds, and every time at this time, Li Zhang was in a trance, as if Zhao Zhen's figure coincided with Liu E back then.

"Cousin, you're here, please take a seat, this recital is about to be approved." Zhao Zhen also raised his head when he heard the footsteps, and when he saw that it was Li Zhang coming in, he also greeted him with a smile, Li Zhang was the only minister who did not need to be notified when he entered the Vertical Arch Palace.

Li Zhang nodded immediately, and then sat quietly together and waited for Zhao Zhen to review the recital, and at the same time, he was also thinking about how to phrase it in his mind and tell him about the future queen?

"Cousin, you came just in time, the queen mother said that the wedding date will be set in February next year, do you think it will be a little too hasty?" At this time, Zhao Zhen finished reading a notebook, and then raised his head and asked Li Zhang, Empress Dowager Li was anxious to let him establish a new queen as soon as possible, so he was also in a hurry, so he could only discuss it with Li Zhang.

"This ......" At this time, he was still thinking about how to lead the topic to Empress Li, but he didn't expect Zhao Zhen to take the initiative to mention it, which made him hesitate for a moment before he spoke, "Actually, I came to see Your Majesty today, and I also want to tell you something related to Empress Li." ”

"Oh? What's the matter? Zhao Zhen also asked with a curious look when he heard Li Zhang's words.

"This ......" I saw Li Zhang hesitate again at this time, and then gritted his teeth and finally spoke, "Don't hide it from Your Majesty, in fact, I recently heard about something related to the future queen!" ”

Hearing that what Li Zhang was going to say was related to his future queen, Zhao Zhen also looked at Li Zhang more curiously, waiting for his next words, so Li Zhang said ruthlessly again at this time: "I heard that little lady Cao once married someone else!" ”

"Marry...... Married someone else? Zhao Zhen was stunned for a moment when he heard Li Zhang's words, and asked again before he could react for a while, "Cousin, are you saying that she had a marriage contract with someone before?" ”

"It's not a marriage contract, but a marriage with someone else, but something happened on the day of the cave house, which caused the groom to escape, and this little lady Cao is also quite backbone, and went back to her parents' house directly the next day, and resolutely withdrew from the marriage!" Li Zhang gritted his teeth and explained, he knew that this matter was a little unacceptable to Zhao Zhen, after all, as an emperor, I am afraid he never dreamed that the ministers below would recommend a second-married woman to him to be the queen.

Sure enough, Zhao Zhen was also very resistant when he heard Li Zhang's words, and even said loudly with a look of disbelief: "This ...... This is impossible, if she is really married, how can she pass the layers of screening and be recommended to the palace, cousin, you must be joking, right? ”

"How dare I joke about this kind of thing, and even I personally sent someone to Yongcheng to investigate, and only after confirming that it was correct, I dared to enter the palace to tell you." Li Zhang also smiled bitterly at this time, Zhao Zhen really couldn't accept this matter, no wonder he was so cold to Queen Cao in history, even if he was assassinated, it was all thanks to Queen Cao's calm command to save his life, but Zhao Zhen still didn't appreciate it, and didn't even mention Queen Cao's merits afterwards, let alone reward him at all.

If it was someone else, Zhao Zhen might not believe it, but Li Zhang is the person he trusts the most, and just like Li Zhang said, Li Zhang will never joke about such a big thing, which makes him stand there blankly, and there is no expression on his face, after all, this matter is like a 10,000-pound boulder falling from the sky and hitting his head directly, and now he is stunned.

"How bold they are!" After a while, I saw Zhao Zhen roar angrily, and suddenly overturned the entire bookcase, which made the surrounding chamberlains and palace maids startled, and they just wanted to step forward, but were driven out by Li Zhang's wave.

Zhao Zhen was also angry at this time, after all, he was the emperor, and it was no problem to have as many women as he wanted, and even the ministers tried their best to stuff women into the harem, in order to make Zhao Zhen have enough heirs, so that no prince would inherit the throne in the future, but the queen who was now in charge of the harem was recommended a woman who had been married, and he didn't even hear the news in advance, which made him feel a kind of insult of being deceived.

Under this anger, Zhao Zhen was out of control again, grabbing the things around him and smashing them randomly, after Li Zhang asked the chamberlain and the palace maid to leave, he also stood quietly aside and waited for Zhao Zhen to vent, after a while, when there was really nothing to smash around, and Zhao Zhen was also tired and panting, and finally sat on the ground motionless.

"Cousin, who knows about this matter, why has no one reported it?" Zhao Zhen took a few breaths before he asked Li Zhang.

"I don't know, not only the Cao family must not have known about it, but some officials in the DPRK and China must also have people who know about it." Li Zhang also replied helplessly at this time, he was not in the capital at all when he established the new queen, and he didn't know how Lu Yijian operated, so he couldn't answer Zhao Zhen's question.

"What a bold man, what a bold man!" Zhao Zhen gritted his teeth murderously and said, at this time, he really wanted to kill, not only the Cao family, but also those ministers in charge, and although Li Zhang did not say it explicitly, he was sure that Lu Yijian must also be one of the insiders, after all, he was good friends with the Cao family, and the Cao family's women were made the queen, and he contributed the most.

"Actually, I knew about this a few days ago, and I've been struggling with whether to tell you or not." Li Zhang smiled bitterly again at this time and spoke.

"It's not my cousin, it's all my fault that I'm so confused, I can't resist the pressure to agree, and now this matter has been told to the world, even if you tell me, cousin, I'm afraid I won't be able to get married!" Although Zhao Zhen was angry, the anger just now had already been vented, so he could still keep his sanity at this time, and naturally guessed the reason for Li Zhang's entanglement.

"Auntie, she must have been kept in the dark like His Majesty, otherwise she would definitely not agree to this marriage." Li Zhang also smiled bitterly again at this time, if Empress Dowager Li knew that the queen she recommended to her son was a married person, I am afraid she would also blame herself very much.

"I know, I'm also worried that my mother will be angry when she finds out about this, cousin, don't tell your mother for the time being!" Zhao Zhen forced himself to calm down at this time and said again, just looking at the red appearance of his eyes, it was really worrying.
