Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

Defang looked up, and it turned out to be Song E. Song E was the younger sister of Empress Song, only a few years older than Defang. Her marriage to Kou Zhun was arranged by Emperor Taizong, so she was still Defang's elder. Seeing that it was Song E, she hurriedly saluted, "Defang visited my aunt and disturbed her. Defang will apologize to you."

"My lord, don't be too polite." Song E walked down the stone steps and came to Defang. "My lord, my lord didn't sleep last night and just lay down. When he wakes up, I will let him go to the palace to meet his lord."

Defang looked at Song E, but couldn't say anything more, "Yes, auntie, Defang is going home first." After saluting, Defang turned and left, but Kou Zhun walked out, "My lord, please stay."

Defang turned around and saw Kou Zhun angry and didn't call out, "Kou Zhun you..." Then she looked at Song E, "Auntie, Defang still has something to talk to Master Kou, auntie should go back to the room to rest."

"Then I'll serve some refreshments to the prince and the master, let's talk slowly."

"Aunt" Defang stopped Song E, "Why don't you serve the tea yourself, please go back to the room and rest."

"Ma'am" Kou Zhun walked over and said with a smile, "you'd better go back to the house, otherwise the prince won't dare to say anything."

Song E nodded and went back to the house. Kou Zhun looked at De Fang with a smile, and when De Fang saw Kou Zhun smiling, he waved his golden mace to beat him. Kou Zhun shouted, "Ma'am! Have a good rest!"

Song E turned her head and smiled, Defang quickly retracted her movements and saluted Song E, "Auntie, rest well."

After Song E left, Defang glared at Kou Zhun, "Okay, you're getting bolder now, aren't you?"

"My lord, how dare Kou Zhun?"

"How dare you? Why didn't you tell the lonely king about such a big incident?"

"My lord, even if Kou Zhun told the lord, what can be changed?"

"The lonely king can intercede for you in front of His Majesty."

"Kou Zhun did nothing wrong, why are you pleading?" Kou Zhun stretched his waist

"How many heads do you have?" Defang was very angry, "It is a great crime to be called long live!"

"It's just a madman shouting long live, why is it so?"

"If you want to commit a crime, there is nothing wrong with it!" Defang looked at Kou Zhun, "I don't know that Zhang Xun, a member of the Privy Council, has always been at odds with you. The two of you have argued many times in front of His Majesty. Your Majesty has long wanted to punish him. What about you, never He didn't make good friends with his colleagues, and even made trouble for himself. Now that something happened, why didn't he go to sue Wen Zhongshu, but just said that the madman called you long live, now it's better, look, is there someone to intercede for you? You two People even dare to quarrel in front of His Majesty after something happened, and expose each other's faults, if His Majesty wants to use this matter to punish Zhang Xun, not only a few people will be demoted, but you will also be implicated."

"If Zhang Xun can be demoted, Kou Zhun is willing to accompany him."

"You are really..." Defang shook her head angrily, "Let it be as you please! Now you are appreciated by His Majesty, but there will always be times when you fall out of favor, you, you should be cautious in your words and deeds."

"Don't be angry, my lord, Kou Zhun invites you to have a cup of tea."

"Who has the time to be angry with you?" Defang took a deep breath, "What do you mean by the letter to the lonely king? Do you think His Majesty will punish you?"

"It must be so." Kou Zhun nodded

"Hey," Defang sighed, "but don't worry, the lonely king will intercede for you in front of His Majesty."

"Thank you, my lord," Kou Zhun cupped his hands

"Kou Zhun, don't think that the lonely king cares about you." Defang looked at the golden mace, "The lonely king just thinks it's boring without you, and it's good to kick you once in a while."

"Then before Kou Zhun left, did the prince kick a few more times?"

"Okay!" De Fang just lifted his foot, Kou Zhun ran away in a flash
