Chapter 102: Above the Court
The smell of blood in the court should be a great inauspiciousness.
Everyone covered their mouths and noses, looking for the source of the smell of blood, and suddenly, Zhao Huanting's originally pink cheeks rose a large flush. Many people who were already paying attention to Zhao Huanting naturally discovered his cross-dress, and couldn't help but look up and down in confusion.
What's going on?
And the ministers who were looking for the source of the smell after patrolling several times, they also set their eyes on Zhao Huanting, who was originally standing in the forefront of the courtiers, and when everyone made a move, he also turned around to look.
Due to the abnormality of the body, Zhao Huanting also showed a corresponding reaction.
At this time, a young man pointed to Zhao Huanting's skirt, and saw that his dress was already dyed red with blood, and he couldn't help screaming.
All the eyes of everyone were focused on Zhao Huanting, and he had to endure the resistance of others to accept the scrutiny of others.
Zhao Huanting's age is here, fifteen years old, and it is almost time for the woman's monthly letter to come.
The ministers who wanted to understand this couldn't help but turn their backs to Zhao Huanting with a red face, but some ministers thought of this but still looked at Zhao Huanting with playful eyes.
When the woman came to the monthly letter, it was not far from getting married and having children.
This also means that the princess can get married.
Although His Majesty said that Zhao Huanting was his only heir, how could a woman inherit Zhao Guo? Like the Wei State, how many concubines can there be in thousands of years? What's more, where does this Zhao Huanting seem to be a person who can afford big things?
Due to the unexpected situation, the political affairs above the court naturally could not be discussed, and Zhao Huanting also stood in place for a long time before the palace people came over to prepare to help her.
Because no one was shocked and couldn't come back to their senses.
"Wait!" A big man with thick eyebrows and a round eye walked out from among the courtiers.
Dressed in a purple python robe, quite arrogant, the clothes are gorgeous and complicated, not like an ordinary official, this person is Liu Biao, a military general, and later became an uncle of the country, Wen Tao and Wu are not a problem, quite a bit of real talent, but also many people privately guessed, the most likely to inherit the throne of Zhao.
Zhao Huanting's uncle Liu Biao is not so easy to fool the past, so coincidental? I took off the veil today and came to the monthly letter? It seems to be arranged step by step.
Liu Biao is the uncle of the country, and the weight of Zhao Guo's court is naturally not to be underestimated, except for His Majesty, who else dares to speak? The power leans towards the government and the opposition, and holds the power. In some cases, even Zhao Heng's orders were refused, and only Liu Biao's orders were accepted.
Although Zhao Heng was furious, he was helpless.
I saw Liu Biao walking slowly to Zhao Huanting's side, his eyes staring at Zhao Huanting's eyes, and he didn't take half of his eyes off.
After looking up and down, Liu Biao actually did something that surprised the courtiers, he actually squatted down slightly and then went to lift Zhao Huanting's skirt, no one dared to believe that Liu Biao, the uncle of the country, dared to lift the skirt of a princess who was just a fifteen-year-old child.
What is this system? What kind of system?
Zhao Huanting's master Li Ziwen is also in the court, so he naturally can't let Liu Biao do such a shameless act to the princess.
hurriedly rushed forward to protect Zhao Huanting behind him, and then scolded Liu Biao angrily: "What are you doing? ”
Liu Biao's half-bent body stiffened a little, but the look on his face did not change, and he got up and said, "Isn't this concerned about Huanting?" I want to see if she's hurt somewhere. ”
Where did it hurt? Can the woman's monthly letter be said to be injured? Didn't Liu Biao do it knowingly and deliberately?
Li Ziwen saw Liu Biao's indifferent tone, and knew that he was still suspicious of Zhao Huanting's gender, but how could such a delicate and pretty child be a man? It could never be a man.
"That's what the imperial doctor should do, it's not the turn of Uncle Guo to come, in front of the public, I hope you can abide by the rules, don't be lawless!" After Li Ziwen shook off this sentence fiercely, he took Qi Shu away from the court and went down to see the imperial doctor.
Zhao Huanting's face was red and almost dripping blood, and the pain between his legs forced him to tears, that kind of crying look, seeing that the desire to protect in the eyes of those ministers rose, it was really her daughter's delicate and lovely family.
As for some rumors, it is simply nonsense to say that the princess is a woman, how can it be a man who is so beautiful and comes to the monthly letter on time?
The rumors are self-defeating.
After that, no matter what people wanted to preach that Zhao Huanting was a woman, those ministers collectively refuted it, after all, it was a sure thing they saw with their own eyes.
Sometimes, however, what you see with your own eyes is not necessarily right.
Zhao Huanting had already cut her thigh with a knife, and then sewed it up with a needle and thread with her own hands, and then wrapped it in cotton cloth, washed the blood on her hands, and slightly smeared a little thicker balm, so that the smell of her body smelled fragrant and there was no smell of blood.
How painful is the pain of flesh and skin? Zhao Huanting only felt that her painful ears were roaring, and the muscles in her body seemed to be squeezed together, extremely sore, and her heart was also extremely sour.
He asked his father countless times, and asked this man who stood at the top of the Zhao Kingdom, why he couldn't come out to fight with those conspiratorial courtiers in the open and bright as a man, but had to use this way to make the other party lower his vigilance, so that he could relax his vigilance against them.
It's a joke to say, the emperor of Zhao and the princess of Zhao are in the palace to the point of stealing their lives, full of eyeliner, as long as there is a slight movement, they will immediately be alerted.
If it weren't for the fact that the identity of a woman gave Zhao Huanting a certain amount of room for relaxation, he would definitely not live to the age of fifteen so easily!
Zhao Heng didn't know how much effort he had spent protecting Zhao Huanting over the years, and he had sacrificed too many guards.
Therefore, if Zhao Huanting really fights with them, it is good to win the fight, but if the fight is lost, the chess pieces will fall into a dead game, and they will lose the whole game!
With Zhao Heng's temporary ability, and the fact that he can't compete with the people led by Liu Biao, who have devoured too much vitality over the years. The cultivated old ministers and new ministers are either persecuted to death if they are either against the water.
Seeing Zhao Huanting growing up day by day, Liu Biao and others became more and more anxious, and the idea of spying on Zhao Huanting's gender has never been broken.
So much so that in the end, they came up with the matter of hurting themselves in advance and forging their own monthly letters, and proved in front of all the courtiers that he Zhao Huanting was a daughter.
At the moment before the last dynasty, the thread that had been sewn with a slipknot was pulled out, and the wisps of sharp feeling were sharp, and when she looked back, Zhao Huanting didn't know how much perseverance she had at that time.
It hurts, it really hurts.
With every step you take, you can feel the wound cracking open and the warm blood flowing out of the water.
Those eyes projected on him, Zhao Huanting only felt that she had fallen into the net, and the more she struggled and pulled, the more she adhered to, and the more uncomfortable it was. It wasn't until the master's big hand led him out that Zhao Huanting felt that she had been truly liberated.
Everyone around him told him to fight, to grab, to get back what belonged to him, to complete the mission he should complete, and to protect Zhao Guo.
Now, Zhao Huanting is indeed realizing such a plan step by step, crushing and removing those moths and useless nails from the house named Zhao Guo.
Three years and three years.
The year-on-year growth has made Zhao Huanting's wings more and more full, and in the eyes of some people, it is also time to harvest.
Zhao Huanting has inadvertently eliminated many two-hearted people who are mainly Liu Biao, and has damaged many of Liu Biao's interests, so that the person who came to Zhao often quarreled with each other in the court of Zhao State.
The disagreement between the uncle and the princess in the court is also a royal family matter to some extent, and most courtiers are still reluctant to get involved.
Liu Biao hated Zhao Huanting, not ordinary, but extremely hateful, he didn't eradicate Zhao Huanting because he had too many scruples when she was young, so that now she is raising tigers and becoming his henchman.
I don't know where Zhao Huanting learned it, she has a good way to do business, and the largest Goolan Courtyard in Bianjiang City, the capital of Zhao State, was opened by Zhao Huanting.
Of course, this is an extremely secret matter, and no one has ever dared to make such a business that the princess can make people's jaws fall in shock.
But Zhao Huanting did just that, and many aristocratic sons and brothers in Bianjiang City often came to take care of Zhao Huanting's business, and Liu Biao's three sons were naturally no exception.
One is more mixed than the other.
As if someone specially taught, he was proficient in eating, drinking, prostituting, gambling, cockfighting, and usually relied on the power of his father Liu Biao to do a lot of immoral things.
Liu Biao is usually busy with government affairs and forming gangs to consolidate his position, and he naturally can't control his son if his feet don't touch the ground, and his wife deliberately dotes on him, so that the three of them are not successful.
Since then, Liu Biao has blamed Zhao Huanting for his son's lack of learning and skill, and his obsession with fun.
A few times it was - sent people to seal Zhao Huanting's shop, but no one opened the museum quickly, basically Liu Biao sent someone to close a house on the front foot, and Zhao Huanting's new store on the back foot began to cut the ribbon again.
So after coming and going, Liu Biao was half angry, but there was nothing he could do with Zhao Huanting, after all, people are serious about doing business, and all the income is returned to the treasury. If Liu Biao has an opinion, Zhao Heng will send someone to check the family background of each minister.
Then Liu Biao's wealth and rival property will definitely not be able to avoid losses.
So after weighing it, Liu Biao still endured it.
is also because this business is taken from the Wei State, so Zhao Huanting is familiar with the coming and going of the Wei State.
This time, Zhao Huanting came to Wei State, also out of her own considerations, in addition to making arrangements in Wei State, she also wanted to see what forces were ready to attack him after she left Zhao State, so that he could clean up these dishonest ones.
Although it is a bit risky to use yourself as bait, but if you don't go into the tiger's den, you will get a tiger? No matter what you do, there will be corresponding risks in it, so Zhao Huanting is also used to making decisions after careful consideration, and she will never regret it after making a decision.
Sleepless nights.
The blood in the palm of his hand had long since dried up and turned into a dark red blood crust, and the blood foam was mixed with the residue of the teacup. The way they stick together looks a little scary.
Because Zhao Huanting has the habit of getting up early, Zhao Siming waited outside the door early in the morning to be dispatched, and it was not far from the day when they left the Wei Kingdom, but he saw that the princess still seemed to have some unresolved thoughts, and she had no intention of returning to China for a long time.
Zhao Siming had to remind the princess that His Majesty had already urged her to be a little urgent.
"Tuk Tuk!" Fingers clasped on the door three times, if Zhao Huanting wanted to go out, she would come out of the room after a while, if she didn't want to, she wouldn't respond.
This is also a habit that Zhao Siming has developed after following Zhao Huanting for a long time.
Thinking that maybe the princess wouldn't go out today, Zhao Siming also planned to turn around and go back to his house to continue to explain the unfinished things under Wei Guo's subordinates.
"Let's go."
Suddenly, the door creaked.
Zhao Siming hurriedly raised his head and prepared to look at Zhao Huanting, but quickly lowered his head again, because the princess didn't like others to stare at her face.
She said.
