"Emperor Longen, Zhiwei is grateful." Zhao Ruxi arched his hand in the direction of the capital again, and said, "Gonggong Deng has worked hard." ”

She also knew that the message would only be passed on in the capital. Now Gonggong Deng is willing to work so hard, and he went to Nanyang and went to Gusu again, all because Xiao Qi values Xiao Lingyan and her.

Liu Hongyu and others also feel the same way. Liu Hongyu and Li Li felt more and more that they had made a wise decision to stand on Zhao Ruxi's side.

Gonggong Deng glanced behind him again, and made a gesture to the two people standing behind him: "This is Zhang Tao, this is Guo Cheng, they are both the emperor's guards in front of him, and they often follow the emperor, and the ministers of the court and the central government recognize them." ”

"The emperor said that Lord Zhao is a woman, but she works hard for the court, which is particularly rare. The world has always valued the reputation of women, and now that Lord Zhao has become the royal daughter-in-law, the world will be even more critical of you. These two imperial guards are specially given to you, and you will be able to protect Lord Zhao when you meet a young person. ”

Father-in-law Deng is very particular about what he says.

Xiao Yu sent a guard to Zhao Ruxi, if she was called a princess at this time, it would give people a very strange feeling - her father-in-law sent a guard to his daughter-in-law, which made people feel wrong no matter how they thought about it.

But if the emperor sent guards to his courtiers, then there would be no problem. When you hear this, you won't think in that direction.

So he called Zhao Ruxi "princess" before, but now he is called "Lord Zhao". If you are not a particularly sensitive person, you will not be able to hear the teachings of this.

Zhao Ruxi's face was full of surprise, and he bowed again in the direction of the capital: "Thank you for the emperor's grace." ”

When she got up, the two imperial guards stepped forward to salute: "Zhang Tao (Guo Cheng) has seen the princess." ”

"No courtesy." Zhao Ruxi raised his hand without humility or arrogance.

The two stood up.

Zhao Ruxi turned his head to look at Gonggong Deng: "Father-in-law just said that the two imperial guards were given to me by the emperor. I would like to ask, who are the two guards obeying? ”

Everyone: "......"

The atmosphere suddenly froze for a moment.

The emperor's gift, this is a great grace, no matter who will only accept it with fear, and dare not ask more. I will be polite to these two guards. Although they are not treated as guests, they will never be summoned as if they were his own subordinates. No matter what the emperor said at the beginning, everyone will regard their master as the emperor, not themselves.

But Zhao Ruxi asked, is this ignorant, or is he too bold and doesn't have much awe for the royal family?

Zhao Ruxi asked these words, and his eyes fell on the faces of Gonggong Deng, Zhang Tao, and Guo Cheng. She wanted to see how these people reacted knee-jerk.

Zhang Tao and Guo Cheng had a trace of confusion on their faces, and they all turned their heads to look at Gonggong Deng, thinking that they themselves didn't know how to position their new identities.

Gonggong Deng was stunned, but quickly reacted.

"Hahahaha...... Can the slave say that Lord Zhao is really worthy of being an unmarried couple with His Royal Highness King Qi? The two of them asked exactly the same thing. At that time, when the emperor and Mr. Deadwood were discussing the relationship between the two, the emperor specially called His Royal Highness King Qi. When it comes to giving you the imperial guard, His Royal Highness King Qi also asked this question. ”

He raised his hand and arched towards the capital: "The emperor said that although Lord Zhao has not yet married His Royal Highness the King of Qi, the will to marry has been made, and he is already a royal person." Lord Zhao should have a guard by his side. Zhang Tao and Guo Cheng were given to Lord Zhao, and they should obey Lord Zhao's orders. Later, Lord Zhao married His Royal Highness the King of Qi, and they belonged to the Qi Palace. ”

He winked playfully: "The emperor said that as for whether they will obey the orders of King Yu Qi or Princess Yu Qi at that time, then the two of them will have to discuss it themselves, hahaha......"

Liu Hongyu and others also hurriedly laughed at the venue.

Zhang Tao and Guo Cheng hurriedly saluted Zhao Ruxi again: "My subordinates have seen the master." ”

This salute is completely different in nature from just now. Everyone's attitude towards Zhao Ruxi in the state government has changed again.

This Lord Zhao is not only powerful to them, but also powerful to the royal people, and he is not afraid of the royal family at all.

It seems that only such a girl can marry into the royal family and become a royal daughter-in-law. Compared to them, they are far inferior in terms of mental nature alone.

Chen Kang looked at Zhao Ruxi, who was standing in the middle of the crowd and had always been the focus, and sighed in his heart.

If he didn't follow Cai Yaozong to target Zhao Ruxi from the beginning, but like Li Li, he directly showed favor to Zhao Ruxi, and Zhao Ruxi leaked a little resource between his fingers, which would be enough for his children and grandchildren to enjoy.

Needless to say, he only needs to become an envoy under Zhao Ruxi, and this power is no worse than Cai Yaozong.

It's a pity that he let go of such an opportunity, and he offended Zhao Ruxi.

But it's not too late to make a gesture. Even if she can't please Zhao Ruxi, it is very good to make her no longer hold grudges.

He looked at the crowd of onlookers in the yamen, beckoned to his entourage, and retreated from the crowd.

Yang Jie and Xiang Ming got Zhao Ruxi's advice yesterday, and the positions of the three of them were also very particular at this time. Lu Yun followed closely by Zhao Ruxi's side, Xiang Ming was a little farther away from them, and Yang Jie, who had always been silent and had a relatively low sense of existence, stood on the periphery of the crowd.

At this time, seeing Chen Kang walking out, he quietly followed.

Although he was only a guard instead of a secret guard, he had to learn the ability to reduce his presence and hide himself.

Therefore, not only Chen Kang, but also everyone in the yamen who paid attention to Zhao Ruxi and Gonggong Deng did not notice his movements.

Chen Kang walked out of the corridor and saw that the two officials guarding the door were still standing in the courtyard with a grin and stupidly watching the excitement, he patted one of them on the back and said, "Aren't you guarding the door?" Why are you still here? Hurry to the door and stand. If something happens and you collide with the princess and Gonggong Deng, be careful of your dog's life. ”

Only then did the two officials remember their duty and hurriedly walked to the door.

Seeing that Chen Kang was also walking out together, the two couldn't help but ask curiously, "Chen Jingcheng, why did you come out?" ”

Chen Kang ignored them, walked out of the door of the yamen and looked out, and saw that in the open space outside the yamen, there were indeed a few horses tied to them, and there was a person who looked like a guard guarding it.

He hurriedly led his entourage over, introduced himself to the man, and said, "Lord Zhao invited Gonggong Deng and the adults to Tianfu Building for dinner, it is estimated that you will stay here for half an hour." The horses ran from the capital to Nanyang, and on such a hot day, they also needed to eat grass and drink water. Why don't you let the villain let the entourage lead the horses into the state office, and wait for you to eat before you come to get it? ”

The man was angry about it.

They will have to go to Gusu in a while, and these horses need to eat grass and drink water, otherwise they will not be able to run halfway. Originally, I wanted to supply the horses in Nanyang Prefecture, but the officials guarding the door followed Gonggong Deng and them in, and left him and the horses here and no one cared about them.
