Chapter 293: Isolation

Imperial Palace.

Under the quiet corridor, the spirited old emperor leaned comfortably on the soft recliner, squinting slightly at the blue sky above his head.

Not far away by the blue lake, two youthful figures were carving white jade railings, throwing the bait in their hands into the water in a hurry. It attracts a large group of beautiful ornamental fish to compete, and the clear and calm water surface is flooded with layers of beautiful ripples.

"Young...... What a beautiful word! ”

The emperor sighed wistfully, picked up a few copies of the text on the small table next to him, looked through them for a while, and then gently dropped them. His eyes turned to the two women.

“…… The senior physicians of the empire and the authoritative experts in the field of genetics are working hard day and night, and they will definitely try their best to find a way to make His Majesty completely free from future troubles! ”

Beside him, a middle-aged aristocratic man with bright eyes and neat clothes stated his claim in an affirmative tone:

"As long as His Majesty can allocate enough funds to them, two or three years at the fastest, and five or six years at the slower, they will definitely come up with results that satisfy His Majesty! Any attempt of the Empire is doomed to fail! ”

"It's rare for Yu Qing to have a heart!"

The Emperor replied indispensably: "Then so be it!" The annual funding allocated to the Imperial Academy of Sciences' Department of Genetic Biology Research has tripled, and I hope they will not disappoint me. ”

Glancing lightly at the ambitious and at the same time ambitious courtier, the emperor added lightly: "If this matter is done, I will definitely not hesitate to reward the high-ranking officials and lords!" ”

This aristocratic man was a favorite of the emperor's side, Yu Qiangui, and currently held the position of deputy inspector of the Supervision Department of the Imperial Interior Office. Although he was appreciated, it was only in the last month. But it is undeniable that he is indeed a popular person by the emperor's side now.

A moment later. The bait was gone, and the two women in palace clothes turned back to the emperor. Earnestly shush the cold and ask for warmth, but don't mention it.

The older one has a dignified and calm look, and his face is as delicate as a classical maid, with a subtle and charming style. She is the cousin of the emperor's majesty: Qin Fengyue, titled Princess Yuanning, has a rich fief of eleven star fields under her name, and also has a certain amount of influence in the court.

The young one is dressed in a fiery red palace dress, her skin is snowy, her face and figure are equally amazingly beautiful, hot and seductive, she is the fifth princess of the royal family, Qin Zhiyun. She is also the most beloved daughter in front of Her Majesty.

The emperor had a little more smile on his face, and said softly to the fifth princess: "Yun'er, after so many years, this habit of yours has not changed!" ”

Qin Zhiyun said with a smile: "This habit was developed with the imperial brother back then, when my father had just given this garden to the imperial brother, and I often came here with him to feed those fish!" ”

"I remember that time when the royal brother celebrated his birthday, he and I were competing for a toy by the lake, and the two of us rolled into the lake together, and let the palace maids scoop it up. As a result, he was scolded by the queen mother......"

Qin Fengyue listened with a smile on her face, occasionally interjecting a sentence or two. His Majesty the Emperor has been particularly fond of sitting in the former residence of the four princes recently, and he also likes to listen to the close ministers around him tell about the things of the four princes when they were young, so they naturally want to do what they like.

Less. A chamberlain walked over lightly, saluted and said, "Your Majesty! The queen has something important, please see you! ”

The smile on the emperor's face faded for a moment, and he said indifferently: "What are you doing when you see me?" When I was sick. She followed and feigned illness! Now that I'm well, she's recovered! Come over every day and say hello with false affection. She is not tired of acting, I feel tired when I look at it! ”

The palace maids standing next to them looked at each other. I don't know what to say.

Qin Fengyue sighed and said in a low voice, "Brother Huang, let's see you!" After all, it is the mother of the country, and it is not appropriate to make too much trouble! ”

The emperor shook his head slightly, and said helplessly: "Feng Yue, you are such a soft character...... All right! Let her come! ”

The chamberlain took the order and left, and after a while, a beautiful woman in a bright yellow palace costume and sharp eyes walked over surrounded by a large group of palace maids.

"The concubine respectfully invites His Majesty to be a saint!" She scrupulously bent down and saluted.

The emperor waved his hand indifferently, the queen stood up straight, and the palace ladies immediately moved the chairs and laid them with soft cushions for her to sit down, and then the two princesses came forward to salute.

The queen looked left and right, and said with a gentle smile: "Your Majesty's complexion looks good, it should be completely recovered!" Some time ago, because I was worried about His Majesty's condition, the concubine was also depressed and sick, and I didn't get better until the last few days, so I couldn't wait by His Majesty's side, and I hope Your Majesty is not to blame! ”

His Majesty the Emperor smiled and said sarcastically: "That's really hard for you!" I don't know if the queen came to ask for money this time? Or do you want to be an official? Or maybe one of your relatives has a big deal and wants to come and ask me to raise his hand? Let's just say it! ”

“……”

A trace of unnaturalness flashed across the queen's face, and she said with a smile: "Your Majesty said that you are laughing!" How dare the concubines bother His Majesty with some trivial things! It is the concubine's maiden niece who has reached the age of marriage, so I came to ask Her Majesty to choose a good family, and I hope that Your Majesty will be fulfilled! ”

The emperor raised his eyebrows and asked lukewarmly: "Since the queen has mentioned it, she must already have a favorite candidate in her heart, just say it!" It also saves me a lot of brains! ”

The queen hesitated for a moment before she said: "I heard that the son of King Songjiang has an upright character and outstanding talent, and the ages of the two parties are just the right match, if Your Majesty thinks it is suitable, it is better to ask the niece of the concubine to be the county lord and give the marriage to ......."

Yu Tiangui's face next to him changed slightly, the queen's niece he knew, a famous courtesan in the upper circle of the imperial capital, it is said that at the age of twelve, he had an unclear relationship with the guards at home, and in the future, he was even more out of control, often prostituting with many men, promiscuating salons, and by the age of sixteen, he had already had five miscarriages!

What's even worse is that this woman is violent and arrogant, shallow and ignorant, and arrogant to the extreme! Relying on the power of his family to do whatever he wants in the imperial capital, he has done a lot of all kinds of lawless things, and he is the best person that no one dares to mess with!

However, the king of Songjiang is the elder brother of the emperor's majesty, and his status is self-evident, and his son will inevitably inherit his title of prince in the future.

In other words, the queen just wants to make this kind of rotten goods that thousands of people ride and ten thousand people press as the county lord, and then stuff it to His Majesty's own nephew, so that she can become the princess of the clan and continue to enjoy the glory and wealth that others cannot reach.

The old emperor's gaze at her became a little colder, and he said lightly: "Don't you have a son yourself?" Why should the niece of the mother's family be cheaper than outsiders? Why don't you just give it to your son and enjoy it! ”

The queen reluctantly smiled: "Your Majesty! The third prince already has a wife, and the positions of several side concubines have also been sealed, so there is really no suitable position arrangement. ”

The old emperor sneered: "No place? Then let her be a palace maid, although it is a wild dog gnawing the remaining bones, but for your sake, your son must not dislike it! ”

"......" The queen's face suddenly turned pale, and she was so angry that she trembled and was speechless for a long time.

It's just that the old emperor was too lazy to ink with her, so he stood up and said coldly: "I still have government affairs to deal with, so I won't accompany me, the queen please take care of herself!" ”

After that, he brushed his sleeves and left.

Qin Fengyue glanced at her deeply, shook her head silently, and pulled Qin Zhiyun to follow the emperor's footsteps.

Since the death of His Majesty's Yuan Pei ten years ago, the newly established queen has not been pleased with His Majesty, and now the contradictions between the two sides are gradually becoming public.

Qin Fengyue, who knows her brother's temperament very well, knows very well in her heart that if this queen doesn't know how to restrain herself, it will be a matter of time before she is deposed, and she will not even be able to bring her son well!

In the distance, a stern-faced chamberlain hurriedly walked over, holding a secret piece in his hand, and presented the piece with both hands after saluting.

His Majesty the Emperor, who was angry, calmed down, took the chapter and opened it to look at it, muttering for a while without speaking.

Seeing that His Majesty was dealing with business, Qin Fengyue pulled the fifth princess to stop not far away.

"Yun'er!" The Emperor suddenly called.

"Father, what's the matter?" Qin Zhiyun hurriedly came over and replied.

A faint smile appeared on the emperor's face, and he shook the piece in his hand at her and said, "I have suddenly discovered a more interesting errand, so you might as well supervise it!" ”

"What errand?" Qin Zhiyun asked puzzled.

"You go to the inner garden of the Forbidden Palace to select five hundred palace maids, and then report to the Duchess of Ankaili, and obey her arrangement!"

“……”

……

"Qin Huang, it's time for dinner!"

In the room, four female soldiers with bright eyes and delicate bodies pushed open the door and walked in, each carrying a food box in their hands.

Qin Huang took his eyes off the light brain in front of him, and saw that they had filled the entire large dining table with all kinds of delicacies, such as mushrooms and duck paws, unburned meat cakes, dragon beard noodles, hanging oven pheasants, roasted roe deer meat, lotus leaf rolls, mountain delicacies and dragon buds, lotus tofu, straw mushrooms and broccoli...... They are all recipes for the imperial cuisine of the palace.

"The funds of the Ministry of Internal Affairs seem to be sufficient!" He said indifferently.

A female soldier replied with a smile: "This is a compensation measure for your cooperation with the investigation!" All students who have been quarantined for a long time are the same! ”

Qin Huang pursed his lips, got up and sat down at the dining table, and asked casually, "I see that you are a little fresh, you can't be new, right?" ”

"You're right, we are indeed cadets who have just graduated from the Internal Service Military Academy, and we have recently been assigned to us!" The female soldier at the head replied with a smile.

Qin Huang didn't say anything anymore, lowered his head and began to eat, and several female soldiers with extremely good looks stood quietly aside.

When they were full of food and drink, the female soldiers came to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and then said goodbye and left.

Staring at their elegant, charming, swaying backs, Qin Huang's eyes slowly became cold and deep, and he thought silently: "With such excellent conditions, even the super models outside are nothing more than that!" But I just came here to be an ordinary female soldier, do you really think I'm an idiot? ”
