Xiao Yue and Chen Qiwen heard Yuan Chenhao's angry voice, and they were immediately frightened, the two glanced at each other, and remained silent tacitly.

But Zeng Qinghong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites in the imperial study, still didn't know whether he was alive or dead: "Your Majesty, the officials really can't be the masters of this matter!"

"I let you come up with countermeasures, not let you be the master!" When he met such a subordinate, Yuan Chenhao really had a feeling of wanting to throw him out.

Zeng Qinghong said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty, after all, this matter involves Your Majesty's marriage, and the lower official went to ask the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother meant that Her Majesty still had to make up her mind." ”

Yuan Chenhao was silent for a while, "What did the envoy of the secret country say?"

"Back to Your Majesty, the envoy of the secret country said that the princess of the secret country could not be sent over on time, and hoped that Your Majesty could give a period of grace. ”

"Didn't I just say that they couldn't be delivered on time, so they couldn't be on time, I didn't criticize them. ”

After all, this was one of the contents of the armistice treaty signed at that time. ”

Yuan Chenhao was angry again, "This won't work, that won't work! Let you give you an idea, you will push back again, are you forcing me to go to war with the secret country again?"

"The minister doesn't dare, Your Majesty, please calm your anger," Zeng Qinghong seemed to expect Yuan Chenhao's reaction, and he still said unhurriedly: "The queen mother means that there is not only one princess in the secret country, they can actually send another one to be sent over and kiss, but the words of the envoy of the secret country clearly have the meaning of regretting the marriage." ”

"Regret the marriage?" Yuan Chenhao sneered, and said with a solemn coldness in his tone: "Then tell them clearly, if you want to regret the marriage, you can regret the marriage, and the previous compensation will be doubled, and I feel that they will not lose this deal." He felt in his heart that since people were unwilling to marry, he would exchange this treaty for an indemnity, and he didn't want to marry the princess of this secret country anyway.

"Uh... When Zeng Qinghong heard this, he hesitated a little, "Your Majesty, this is not the same as the nature of the affinity indemnity, after all, marriage can make the relationship between us and the secret country closer." ”

"Close? We are the victorious country, are we still afraid that we will not have a close relationship with them?" Yuan Chenhao said: "Zeng Shangshu, when you go back, you will talk back to the envoy of the secret country according to what I just said." ”

"But... ”

Yuan Chenhao accentuated his tone again, "Don't do it, otherwise you can figure out a way, and I will leave this mess to you to be responsible." ”

"That... The minister commanded, and the minister retired. ”

Xiao Yue This is the first time she has seen Yuan Chenhao's kingly demeanor, she suddenly felt that the little emotions or small tempers she had played in front of him before, she couldn't help but shudder.

When Chen Qiwen got used to this kind of scene, he quickly came back to his senses and said to Xiaoyue pretendedly: "Master Wen, in fact, don't worry, the prescription prescribed to you by Dr. Zhu is very symptomatic, you have been taking it, it should be effective in half a year, and you stay up less late on weekdays and work less... ”

Before Chen Qiwen finished speaking, Yuan Chenhao walked around the screen and came to them.

When Chen Qiwen saw him, he was about to kneel down and reply.

As a result, Yuan Chenhao waved his hand, "No need, you sit down, what did you just talk about?"

Xiao Yue looked at Yuan Chenhao and was still a little angry, she was afraid that she would be angry with Chen Qiwen because of this, so she took the initiative to reply: "Back to Your Majesty, I just told Imperial Doctor Chen about some of the recent symptoms, and he said that they are all normal, I am in a hurry, and I have to recuperate slowly, in fact, Dr. Zhu said the same thing at that time." ”

"Oh?" Yuan Chenhao looked at Chen Qiwen, who lowered his eyebrows and was pleasing to his eyes, and secretly speculated in his heart that this Imperial Doctor Chen might not be the incompetent person he thought just now, but he was just with the habit of respecting and being cautious that doctors often have.

"Okay, then Imperial Doctor Chen doesn't prescribe prescriptions anymore?"

Chen Qiwen nodded, "Back to Your Majesty, the prescription prescribed by Dr. Zhushan is already excellent, Weichen is ashamed of himself, so he doesn't need to prescribe it, this medicine will be taken for half a year." ”

"Hmm. Yuan Chenhao looked at Xiao Yue sitting on the couch, his expression seemed to be better than before, and he was also a lot more relieved, "Then you can retreat first." ”

After Chen Qiwen left, Yuan Chenhao asked in a low voice, "What symptoms do you have during this time?"

Xiao Yue felt that he seemed to be a little too concerned about her condition, she raised her head and asked curiously, "This... Your Majesty also understands medical skills?"

"Uh... Yuan Chenhao replied embarrassedly: "I understand a little. Know a little bit about it. ”

Seeing his unnatural appearance now, Xiao Yue felt funny in her heart, obviously he was a violent king just now, and now he is so submissive, this contrast is too great.

"Back to Your Majesty, I've been a little dizzy lately, and I faint from time to time, so I'm afraid that if there are other problems, I want Imperial Doctor Chen to help me take a look. Dr. Chen said that this is actually a normal situation after taking the medicine, so I don't have to worry too much. ”

"Oh. Yuan Chenhao let out a sigh, "That's good, that's good." After speaking, he sat next to the couch and looked at Xiao Yue, unconsciously revealing gentle eyes, looking at Xiao Yue a little unnatural.

Xiao Yue moved a little more to the inside of the couch, and then asked, "Your Majesty looks a little tired, otherwise Your Majesty will rest first, and I will be tomorrow." Come back tomorrow ... ”

In fact, it was already a little late at this time, and the sun had already set on the hillside, and Gonggong Bao led Gonggong Qian to light lamps everywhere in the imperial study.

Before Yuan Chenhao could speak, he heard Father-in-law Bao ask, "Your Majesty, when are you going to have dinner?"

This reminded him, and he said, "Oh, it's time for dinner." Then he said to Xiao Yue, "You can stay and have dinner with me." ”

Before Xiaoyue finished speaking, he said to Bao Gonggong: "Bao San, Wen Gongzi is also here, then let's have dinner now, with him with me, it will be more lively." ”

Xiao Yue found that she had no room to refuse at all, so she watched as Duke Bao received the order, and then sent her father-in-law to the imperial dining room to spread the word.

"I asked you to come today because I had something important to discuss with you, but so many things happened. But there's no rush on this matter, let's finish dinner first. ”

Xiao Yue looked at his irrefutable eyes, and then thought of his attitude towards the Ministry of Rites Shangshu just now, anyway, now she is already a little in awe of the man in front of her, she is still very calm on the surface, but even in the face of his slightly tender eyes, there are subtle changes in her heart.

And Yuan Chenhao could also feel Xiaoyue's alienation, from the fact that she was sitting far away from him, holding the old book tightly with both hands, he could guess one or two.
