Donggong Zhangjiao

When Pei Yao followed Fang Yun back to Yuzhang Palace, the news had already spread in the harem.

The Imperial Garden is not the harem gossip forum.

If anything happens here, it will spread immediately.

No, Wan Lingyi, who had just been promoted to the throne on New Year's Eve, became the first topic of conversation for everyone in the new year.

Some said she was unlucky. She was about to come out on top, but she went to the Imperial Garden to admire some plum blossoms, bumped into Concubine Zhao's head, and lost the chance.

Others said that she was clumsy-tongued and got carried away after being favored by the emperor for a moment. She wanted to show off in front of Concubine Zhao, but she was slapped in the face.

Of course, the most important message is that Concubine Zhao is favored and cannot be messed with.

However, Concubine Zhao, who was not easy to offend at this time, had already been coaxed to happiness by the emperor's good words. The two of them were arranging flowers in the house together.

Pei Yao doesn't understand these things. He can appreciate it, but he can't operate it, so he can only do it from the side.

Give whatever you ask.

The second princess went out to play with the eldest prince in the Jin concubine palace. The fourth prince got up late and didn't follow her, so she was playing with the fox in the palace.

Rong Rong was afraid of the cold. Even though the earth dragon was burned in Yuzhang Palace, he still curled up and didn't like to move.

The fourth prince poked it twice, and when he saw that it ignored him, he felt bored and wandered over to his parents.

Pei Yao has come to Yuzhang Palace many times, so the fourth prince is naturally familiar with him and is not afraid at all.

She held Pei Yao's legs with her little hands and climbed onto his knees.

"Father, father, hug me!"

"Okay, okay." Pei Yao smiled and picked up the milk dumplings and put them on his knees, "How about watching your mother-in-law arrange flowers?"

The fourth prince nodded obediently, and the two men sat together and watched quietly.

From time to time, I help hand them scissors or flower branches, which is quite harmonious.

After arranging the flowers, Fang Yun went to wash his hands. The fourth prince also wanted to join in the fun, so Fang Yun rolled up his sleeves for him, and the two of them put their hands into the hot water together.

Pei Yao watched from the side, then took the cloth to wipe hands from Yan Wei, and wiped their hands personally.

The wet nurse brought milk cake, and the fourth prince ran away.

"This child is quite well-behaved and quiet, not as naughty as the boy next to him." Pei Yao said.

Fang Yun's eyes were full of soft light, "Everyone is different, I just want him to be healthy, intelligent, kind and tenacious."

"Our child will naturally be great." Pei Yao took her hand and sat outside, "It's cold, do you still need to eat pot for lunch?"

As winter goes on, Fang Yun likes to eat pots more and more.

The main reason is that the weather is cold, and there are many dishes, which are still steaming hot when served, but soon become cold. Fang Yun has a weak stomach, likes heat and is afraid of cold, so he prefers pots.

Now Pei Yao took the initiative to bring it up, but Fang Yun did not refuse.

"That's good. This morning, the little kitchen also said that they had obtained some live fish, and asked them to cut them into slices and eat them together."

Food can always make people feel better. As he said this, Fang Yun had a smile on his face.

After chatting for a while, it was time for lunch.

After leaving the children to be greeted by the wet nurse, the two of them sat down and ate the pot comfortably.

Halfway through the meal, Fuxi ran in with a smile on his face, knelt down and said.

"Your Majesty, I'm so happy, so happy, Shangyang Kingdom has surrendered!"

"what?!"

The news was so sudden that Pei Yao stood up in surprise, took two hurried steps forward, and asked. "Who sent the news? Is it accurate?"

"The news, written documents, and seal tokens delivered by General Zhang from the Northern Xinjiang military camp are all good. There is also a letter of surrender from Shangyang Kingdom!"

Fuxi knelt on the ground and answered hurriedly.

Hearing this, the last trace of caution on Pei Yao's face disappeared, and his eyes shone with joy.

After saying three good words, he immediately saw Fang Yun beside him, took her hand, and was about to go out.

"Come on, come with me to see it!"

"Your Majesty." Fang Yun smiled and pulled him, "Your Majesty is overjoyed. The messenger and ministers must have something to report to the Emperor right now. How can I go away? Today is a good day, Your Majesty. Go and see it soon, I’ll prepare some good wine tonight, and then we’ll have a good celebration with the emperor!”

Hearing what he said, Pei Yao also thought of this and nodded immediately.

"Okay, I will definitely come tonight!"

After leaving these words, Bian Fei left Yuzhang Palace and went to Jingqian Palace.

After he left, Yan Wei, who had the most out-of-control temper, was the first to be unable to hold it in any longer.

He jumped out quickly and said, "Great, Shangyang Kingdom has surrendered. The army will definitely be able to return to the court soon. When the time comes, rewards will be given based on merit. Mr. Liu will definitely be promoted to a noble position. By then, let's see what other people in the harem can do. It’s nonsense, saying that our mother-in-law’s family has no one!”

"Shh!" Qingrong hurriedly signaled her to be silent, "How about lowering your voice so that others can hear? Our young master is not going there in the open."

Yan Wei hurriedly covered her mouth and nodded, but her eyes were still full of smiles.

Looking at the two girls who really care about him, Fang Yun is in a good mood.

With a wave of his hand, he asked the two of them to go to their dowry and pick out a pair of earrings they liked.

The two girls were also very happy.

At the same time, in the royal study room, Pei Yao listened to the messenger's words and looked at the things sent. He was also very happy.

This battle lasted for a full year. Although it was not too long, it was still difficult.

After all, he had just ascended the throne.

Pei Yao was extremely happy to win.

But this time the Shangyang Congress took the initiative to surrender, it was not that they were completely beaten and had no ability to fight back. The more important reason was the internal struggle for the right to be the heir apparent.

Lin Cong, the sixth prince of Shangyang Kingdom, was captured by Yang Chengyu and escorted to Kyoto. His mother, Concubine Yin of Shangyang Kingdom, loved her so much that she was furious. She suspected that Prince Lin Chen deliberately caused her son to be captured alive so that he could take advantage of the enemy. Hand, get rid of the powerful competitor for the throne.

Feeling resentful, he planned to poison Queen Guo of Shangyang Kingdom. Unexpectedly, the king of Shangyang Kingdom suddenly went to Queen Guo's palace to have a meal that day and drank the poisonous soup, which caused the emperor and queen to be poisoned and fell into coma.

Concubine Yin was greatly frightened and worried that the Lord of Shangyang would be punished after he woke up, so she simply did nothing and joined forces with her mother's family to seize power, intending to support the young and motherless tenth prince to ascend to the throne.

Unexpectedly, Queen Guo's mother's family discovered it and captured it in one fell swoop. However, due to the conflict in the palace, the King of Shangyang became so angry that he died of poison.

When something like this happened in the country, Prince Lin Chen of Shangyang Kingdom naturally had to rush back to inherit the throne and take care of state affairs. In addition, the war situation was already unfavorable, so he surrendered.

Pei Yao doesn't care about all the internal struggles and changes in Shangyang Kingdom. What he cares about most, and what the whole country of Da Qi cares about the most, is this war. Da Qi has won!
The former dynasty and the harem were all excited about the news.

And even on such an important day, the news that the emperor stayed at the Yuzhang Palace and drank and had a good time with Concubine Zhao spread throughout the palace.

The more beautiful the Yuzhang Palace is, the more it looks like a joke to Wan Lingyi.

It was clear that if the scene in the Royal Garden had not happened, the Emperor might have been with her to share the news of national celebration.

"Why, why do you always have to fight with me!"

Wan Lingyi looked at the face with carefully painted makeup in the bronze mirror, shouted angrily, and brushed the bronze mirror down.
