Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

"Nangong, what good will it do him?"

"They are all for their own survival. Whether it is Wang Pu or other civil servants and military generals, as long as they get what they want, what does the life and death of the Zhao royal family have to do with them?"

"These people are so disgusting!"

"Baili, the so-called emperor and courtiers are like this, you can't blame them."

"Nangong, this time His Majesty chose General Pan's daughter. General Pan is also a loyal minister, and Miss Pan is also very nice."

"Baili, General Pan is indeed a loyal minister to His Majesty, but he is tactful and narrow-minded. He only takes his concubine with him every time he goes out to battle. Once he has a child, he will immediately send someone back to the capital and notify the emperor. Show your loyalty, if the prince accepts his daughter as a concubine, I am afraid that the prince will be in a more difficult situation."

"difficult?"

"Think about it, now that General Pan is being favored by His Majesty, if his daughter becomes a concubine with the prince again, she will definitely have a higher official position, but he will not become the guardian of the prince because of this, but will help him Your Majesty restrains the prince."

"Nangong, what you said is that our lord has just gained a firm foothold in the court. If this is true, the lord is indeed in a bad situation."

"Moreover, His Majesty has given ten maids to Nanqing Palace these years. They are maidservants in name, but they are actually to monitor the prince's actions. Otherwise, how do you think His Majesty would know what happened in Nanqing Palace so quickly every time?"

"It's true..."

"The prince refuses to accept the concubine. Although there is a reason for his deep affection for the concubine, he also has the intention of resisting his majesty."

"Our lord is so pitiful..."

Nangong patted Baili, "So we have to protect the prince even more."

"That's for sure." Baili nodded, "Nangong, I won't tell you anymore. I'll prepare hot water for the prince."

"Baili, did your lord say anything else?"

"say what?"

"Your Majesty has already issued a verbal order. If the prince does not enter the palace again, he will send an imperial doctor. Does the prince have any countermeasures?"

"No." Baili shook his head, "The prince just sat in the study for more than three hours without saying a word."

"What should I do... If His Majesty really punishes the prince for this..."

"Nangong, you have the most ideas, come up with a countermeasure for the prince."

"The prince is refusing to enter the palace because he is sick. I can't let the prince really get sick."

"Then what should we do? The imperial doctor will be here tomorrow."

Nangong shook his head, "Prepare hot water, I'm going to see the prince." Nangongwen came to the study, saw the door was open, Defang was still sitting on the chair blankly, Nangongwen stood in front of the door and saluted, "little man Nangong Wen sees the prince."

Defang turned to look at Nangong Wen, "Well, come in and close the door"

Nangong entered the house and closed the door, Defang asked, "What's the matter?"

"My lord, the imperial doctor will enter the mansion tomorrow, you..."

"Nangong, I'm tired, I want to take a bath, and then go to rest."

"My lord, but..."

"Nangong, after tonight, there will be many things in the mansion that require your help." Defang stood up, "I have countermeasures for tomorrow's matter, but... hey... I don't know what the result will be."

"My lord, what is the countermeasure? Can you tell the villain?"

"Nangong, it's better that you don't know. In short, you help me collect information like before. If there are other emergencies, you can handle them on my behalf."
