Chapter 511: Inquiry

The queen left her seat and personally helped Fang Du up, looking left and right, the more she looked, the more she felt fond, "There are three sisters in the palace family, but there are no brothers and younger brothers, it's a pity." Unexpectedly, today there is such a good brother who can share the worries of His Majesty, come, sit next to my sister!"

The eye-catching eunuch immediately added a small table below the queen and above the imperial concubine, and asked Fang Duan to sit down. The queen took his hand and refused to let go, half-jokingly and half-seriously said to Cong Yu, "From today on, the concubine is also a person who is protected by her younger brother, Your Majesty must not bully the concubine, otherwise, our General Fang will have to find Your Majesty to theorize!" Cong Yu laughed and said, "I didn't expect it, I originally wanted to take Fang Du as a confidant, but unexpectedly, the queen snatched it halfway, so it doesn't matter!"

"Look at what Your Majesty said, he is not only the younger brother of the concubine, but also Your Majesty's brother-in-law, they are all a family, what you say about yours and mine, it's all for Your Majesty, isn't it?" The queen raised her wine glass and said to Cong Yu, "Congratulations, Your Majesty, there is such a good uncle to share your worries!"

The husband and wife sang and harmonized, but Fang Dui, the main protagonist, couldn't insert a word. Cong Yu drank the wine in the cup and said, "Since the queen has said so, then I can't let him bear the reputation of this uncle in vain." Come to someone, spread my will, and seal General Fang as ......"

"Your Majesty, wait!"

Just when everyone pricked up their ears to listen to Cong Yu wanting to reward Fang Duan for an official position, an eager voice came, and as he spoke, Xu Qinghe walked over quickly, "Your Majesty, don't do it!"

"Daochang Xu, you say no, why not?" Cong Yu was a little displeased, as the Son of Heaven, could it be that he even wanted to be sealed an official position and listen to him, a Taoist priest? Xu Qinghe pretended not to see Cong Yu's displeasure, "It is naturally a great thing for the queen to recognize her brother." But if Your Majesty wants to add icing on the cake at this time, and seal General Fang to a high official position, I am afraid that it will make people think that General Fang is not relying on his own strength, but relying on nepotism with Your Majesty, and will be criticized!"

His reasoning sounds righteous, but in reality it is just for his own selfishness. Fang Duan is already half an uncle, if he has a higher official position, I am afraid that it will be even more difficult to deal with in the future.

"Well, what Xu Daochang said also makes some sense. Cong Yu nodded frequently, "General Fang, let's put the reward aside for the time being, but I can promise you one thing." You don't have to say it now, you can think slowly, as long as I can do it and it doesn't violate the moral law, if you bring it up, I will agree!"

"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty!" Fang Duan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fang Cai Cong Yu and the queen said one after another, and the sobriety was like cooking oil on fire, holding himself to the sky. Fang Duan understood a truth, climbing the height will fall heavily. Today he can be high, he will be framed and calculated by villains every day, and today all kinds of things will only become one of his crimes.

"Your Majesty is so partial, if you change the brother of Concubine De, I'm afraid it won't be like this, right?" the queen said sourly, turned around and went to drink with the imperial concubine.

Who doesn't know, before the concubine entered the palace, the queen was outstanding, and in January, His Majesty was in the queen's palace for more than ten or twenty days, and three of the five princes in the palace were born by the queen. But no one is good for a thousand days, and flowers are not red for a hundred days, after Concubine De entered the palace, the queen's former scenery was gone.

As a woman, even if she is already the most noble person in the world, she will not be generous enough to be willing to share her husband with other women. The queen holds her own identity, but she often expresses her dissatisfaction, and compared to the queen, the imperial concubine's reaction is much softer.

"The queen likes to joke with her concubines the most, are you sorry for General Fang?" The imperial concubine carefully peeled off the skin of the grapes, put them in a crystal cup, and handed them to the queen, "Your Majesty always has a bowl of water, we are concubines with Sister De, how can Your Majesty favor one over the other?"

The queen and the imperial concubine have two completely different attitudes, but they say the same thing. Cong Yu thought that since Concubine De entered the palace, he had never been to the palace of the queen and the imperial concubine, and he felt guilty.

"Your Majesty, the queen mother specially prepared songs and dances for today's feast. Why don't you call it up, let's take a look together?" The imperial concubine smiled skillfully, Fang Du looked at it coldly, and suddenly felt that His Majesty was really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, this imperial concubine looked gentle and harmless, but it was a soft nail, not easy to touch.

"Okay, the queen has a heart!" Cong Yu picked up his wine glass and sent it to the queen's lips in order to alleviate the embarrassment, and the queen smiled strangely and drank the wine. The music sounded, and a new song and dance came.

These dancing girls are more fresh and refined than the batch they saw when Fang Du and the others came in, and they should have been carefully selected by the queen. They were dressed in long white dresses, and danced to the music, like fairies coming out of the clouds, and for a while the conversation was much quieter.

"Lord Wang, Lord Wang!" Zhan Xingran left his position, sat down beside Cong Miao, and whispered, "Fang Du wants to ask you, where is the national teacher now, he wants to meet the national teacher." Cong Miao covered half of his face with a wine bowl and said, "This king also asked people to inquire, only to say that the national teacher angered His Majesty and was locked up in his own courtyard. If you ask why, you don't know. This king thinks that there must be something strange in this!"

Zhan Xingran suddenly thought of Yun Yuan, could it be that this national teacher was also suspected by His Majesty, and was also locked up for interrogation? Cong Miao said to him, "You must stop Fang Dui, and don't run to see her alone until this king finds out about the national teacher!"

"The prince is embarrassed for us, when has he heard our words?" Zhan Xingran was worried, and suddenly heard Fang Du say, "Your Majesty, I don't know why the minister entered the palace this time and didn't see the national teacher?"

Cong Miao and Zhan Xingran covered their faces, this Fang Du really couldn't help but chatter, but in front of His Majesty, which pot was not opened. Fortunately, it seems that His Majesty is prepared, "You said that the national teacher, she has been unwell recently, and it is not appropriate to work too hard, so I specially allowed her to recuperate in the palace, and instructed everyone not to visit, so as not to make her more tired, but to delay her illness." ”

This was obviously a prevarication, Fang Du asked, "Then the Imperial Doctor has already seen the National Teacher, what do you say?" Cong Yu said, "The Imperial Doctor said that he would only need to rest for half a month to recover, and General Fang didn't have to worry too much." Hey, I don't know when General Fang cared so much about the national teacher, it's really rare!"

There was obvious scrutiny in Cong Yu's eyes, and Fang Duan was startled, knowing that he shouldn't say much. The queen smiled, "Fang Du is not married, the national teacher is not married, it is good that they have a lot of contacts, after all, Fang Du has also reached the age when it is time to marry!"
