The British Duke and others hurried and hurried, and they could not enter Beijing before Chinese New Year's Eve. Watermark Ad Test Watermark Ad Test

When they rushed to the road under the stars, the capital had already ushered in the Chinese New Year's Eve of the fifth year of God's blessing.

The sound of firecrackers bids farewell to the old year, and always replaces the new peach with the old charm.

The British Mansion received the usual reward from the palace, but compared to the joy and excitement of previous years, this year there were only sighs and worries.

Zhang Tan, the prince of England, paced back and forth anxiously under the hall.

The British duchess frowned and pressed her forehead.

Mrs. Shizi, Li and Zhang Xi's sister-in-law are also sitting on pins and needles.

Just after thanking the reward, the waiter who came to give the reward, that is, one of the "godsons" who had helped Zhang Tan pass a message to Feng Yongting, said in a low voice with a smile: "Gonggong Feng instructed the villain to bring a message to the prince, saying that he was not doing well in the past, and before he had time to cross out Miss Huang's name, the queen mother of the two palaces personally appointed Miss Huang to be the queen, and asked the prince to take care of her. ”

Rao is Zhang Tan is accustomed to seeing the wind and waves, and he was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, before he reluctantly smiled: "Gonggong Feng is very busy, and it is not worth worrying about." ”

The chamberlain laughed twice and glanced at Zhang Tan meaningfully.

Zhang Tan understood and personally stuffed him with a thick red envelope.

The chamberlain pinched the thickness of the red seal between his sleeves, smiled sincerely, and whispered back: "Godfather likes gold and silver very much, but he prefers to treasure it." ”

After all, with Godfather's current power, gold and silver can be obtained at will, but it is difficult to get it casually.

Zhang Tan held back his anger and thanked the waiter for the reminder with a smile.

After sending off the palace people, it was too late to pack up those rewards, so Zhang Tan hurriedly retreated left and right and explained the matter to the British duchess.

"Mother, what if Gonggong Feng comes to blackmail again?" Zhang Tan couldn't help but ask.

When the three of them heard this, they immediately looked at the British duchess who was sitting at the top of the house, and waited anxiously and expectantly.

The British duchess pressed her forehead and sighed, "It's my fault." At the beginning, I only thought that Feng Yongting had a lot of power, and it was easy to cross out a name, how could I forget that this person was even more greedy......"

"How can you blame Mother for this?" Zhang Xi hurriedly comforted, gritted his teeth and said hatefully, "After all, no one thought that Feng Yongting would take money and not do anything, let alone that Sister An would be appointed as the queen by the Queen Mother ......of the Two Palaces."

That's why Feng Yongting was given the handle to take control of the British government.

The British Duchess raised her hand to stop Zhang Xi's complaints, and sighed: "So far, what's the use of talking about this?" For this matter, Feng Yongting has not blackmailed us once or twice. Right now, he's probably thinking that your father is coming back, and he's thinking about taking this opportunity to make another profit.

"Forget it, for the New Year, there is no need to block himself for a little money, since he wants it, he will clean up a few more treasures stored in the warehouse that have not been used for many years, and send them to him."

There is a saying that "I would rather offend a gentleman than a villain", not to mention that Feng Yongting is still a power traitor in the eunuch!

It's considered to be ruined.

"Mother, there is a saying that 'desires are difficult to fill', Feng Yongting is insatiable, and such indulgence will only fuel his greed. When the time comes, I'm afraid that I will not be able to satisfy him if I fill the entire treasury in our house......"

Zhang Tan thinks more long-term.

The Duchess sighed: "Your worries are not unreasonable. However, we have to get past the current hurdle first.

"Besides, if this matter is exposed, we will certainly suffer the crime, but he Feng Yongting has taken advantage of this to accept bribes many times and use power for personal gain, can he be exempted from the crime?

"And indulge him this time, and when your father comes back, let's think about it in the long run!"

After all, Feng Yongting's threat to blackmail the British government was not just for money.

Seeing this, Zhang Tan and others had to respond for the time being.

……

In the palace, Feng Yongting listened to his godson's reply and nodded with satisfaction.

Swinging away the people in the room, he paced around to see where there were any rare ornaments.

The treasures sent by Zhang Tan have always been very much in line with his heart.

……

When Zhang Xi came to visit Huang Yi'an at Huang's house on the third day of the first lunar month, during the conversation, he accidentally revealed that Feng Yongting had asked Zhang Tan to cross Huang Yi'an's name from the list of candidates for election after the establishment, and repeatedly threatened to extort the British government.

When Huang Yi'an heard this, his brows furrowed.

Zhang Xi said "not good" in his heart, secretly regretted it, and quickly changed the topic stiffly, and said with a dry smile: "Oh, Sister An, this peach blossom cake you made is really good, not only the shape is very similar to peach blossoms, but the filling also brings out the fragrance of peach blossoms......"

Huang Yi'an praised her with a dry smile, and then smiled: "Although the peach blossom crisp is good, this puff pastry is a little dry, and it has to be paired with special honey or milk soup to taste better." Ame, you go to the kitchen and do it. ”

Ame bowed her knees.

Seeing this, Lan Xin hurriedly smiled and said, "The slave also went to help." ”

After saying that, he also bent his knees and retreated with Amei.

After everyone in the house retreated, Huang Yi'an got up and said solemnly to Zhang Xi: "This matter is all because of me. I am inconvenient to go to the house, so I am here to apologize to your house. ”

After that, he gave a deep salute.

Zhang Xi was startled, hurriedly stepped forward to pick up Huang Yi'an, and said in a low voice: "What are you doing here?" I didn't come to the door this time to ask the teacher to ask for sin! ”

Huang Yi'an got up and smiled reluctantly: "I know that Sister Zhang is a person, and Sister Zhang should also understand me." This apology is not just for Feng Yongting to blackmail the British government. ”

knew that today, no matter how Zhang Xi showed goodwill, she should have fought to offend the British government, and completely cut off the relationship between the two, and would never continue the fate of this life for the sake of the love of the previous life, bringing such a disaster to the British government.

When Zhang Xi heard this, his eyes turned red, and he muttered: "If you want to say that you can't live it, we can't live it, and so are you."

"If it weren't for the third brother and Brother Lan who led the 1,000 Royal Forest Army to Jiayu Pass, offending Zhang Shoufu and Feng Yongting, who were holding on to it, Feng Yongting would not have taken the opportunity to deliberately retaliate against you. So much so that you are now forced to marry into the deep walls of the palace......"

She knew better than anyone else Sister An's disgust and fear of the towering and cold palace wall, but in the end, she inadvertently pushed Sister An in with her own hands with her family......

Huang Yi'an's eyes are also red.

The trajectory of fate has long been determined, in her previous life, without Feng Yongting inserting this bar, wouldn't she also enter the palace as the queen?

However, this could not be said to Zhang Ximing.

And perfunctory comfort, neither she nor Zhang Xi needs it.

The two stood silently against each other for a long time, but Huang Yi'an took the lead in breaking the silence and reluctantly smiled: "The matter has come to this point, no matter how much regret there is, it is better to settle down and look forward!" ”

In her previous life, that's how she came over.

If she blindly indulges in the beauty of the beginning and refuses to come out, let alone survive until the end of her life, I am afraid that long before the Zheng family enters the palace, she has become unrecognizable like other concubines......

That kind of self, let alone the emperor, even she herself is deeply disgusted.
