Chapter 429
The question of who should lead the [-] troops heading to Wucheng was settled after Yun Changqing said that it should be reused. That's all, but this time the Li family was involved, and it happened that Li Zhaoyi did something wrong again. If the Li family was not reused at this time, it would be hard to avoid being defined by the courtiers as the reason why the Li family was neglected.

Although Li Zhaoyi was wrong, what he did was not a serious crime of murder. The courtiers had always wanted to intercede for Li Zhaoyi, but because Li Zhaoyi's status was too low, there was no need to speak in court. In fact, the emperor knew in his heart that the reason for the courtiers' dissatisfaction was What Li Zhaoyi wanted to get rid of was Xu Zhaoyi, and Xu Zhaoyi was the one the courtiers wanted to get rid of.

Hongluan was born in a brothel, which made her dissatisfied by the courtiers. Although he defended her in every possible way, the courtiers were still dissatisfied, saying that it hurt Dayan's reputation, which made him very concerned.

After the court, the emperor unknowingly walked to Qingwan Palace. After returning to the palace, he personally ordered to tidy up Qingwan Palace and let Xu Zhaoyi live there. She became the first Zhaoyi concubine to be independent. There is a precedent for owning a palace. Although the concubine was dissatisfied, the queen didn't say anything, so they all kept their mouths shut.

He didn't know why he had so many special cases for her unknowingly, he could only say that he couldn't control himself, he just wanted to be nice to her, always be nice to her, that's all.

Seeing that the emperor was standing at the gate of Qingwan Palace, Dean stepped forward to persuade him, "Your Majesty, it's windy outside, since you're here, let's go in and see Empress Zhaoyi."

The emperor sighed, nodded, and walked in.

Hong Luan was embroidering. When the emperor entered, he intentionally kept people from letting in to inform her. After entering the room, she came to the dormitory and saw that she was concentrating on embroidery. However, she was so clumsy that she stabbed her finger twice in a row. The emperor couldn't stand it, and said: "If you don't know how to embroider, don't do it. If you want any pattern, you can tell the female workers in the palace to do it."

Hongluan raised her head and grinned when she saw the emperor, even her eyes were full of smiles, which made the emperor feel warm in his heart.

"Your Majesty, have you come here since your next court?"

"Well, I came to your place without knowing it, and came in to see what you were doing." As he said, the emperor stepped forward two steps, wanting to see what she was embroidering.

Hongluan hurriedly put away the embroidered things, and said with a smile: "The emperor didn't let anyone announce when he came, it must be deliberately to see the joke of the concubine."

"I don't know what you're doing, so why did I deliberately want to see you laughing, my concubine, what are you embroidering, why don't you let me see?"

"If there is nothing embroidered, the emperor should not ask."

The emperor was ashamed by what her soft voice said, so he didn't pursue the question any further. It must have been done clumsily, so the embroidery was ugly, so he refused to show it to him.

"When you first entered the palace, there must be many things you are not used to. I see that you don't move around very much on weekdays. Tell me honestly, has anyone bullied you?"

"Who would dare?" Hong Luan came to the emperor, took his hand and sat down together: "The emperor dotes on his concubines so much, the elder sisters in the palace are very polite to them, and even brought many gifts, empress empress I brought a set of tea sets, the concubine likes it, you see, I have used them all." As she spoke, she pointed to the tea sets on the table.

The emperor looked in the direction of her finger, and was suddenly a little surprised: "Did the queen give you this tea set?"

"Well, it's not what the concubine and the empress want."

The emperor smiled and pinched her face: "Of course I know that you and the queen didn't want it. I gave this tea set to the queen many years ago. The queen liked it very much after seeing it, and she was never willing to take it out. Yes, I didn't expect that she would give it to you, Concubine Ai, the queen is not mean to you, you should respect her too."

"My concubine understands."

Speaking of the empress, the emperor wanted to visit her. She had quarreled with him before, but now that she thinks about it, the empress has never quarreled with him. All along, she has been tolerant and kind-hearted, always thinking of him, Even if he was really wronged, he would still swallow the bitterness into his stomach. After a long time, he actually took all of this for granted. When encountering difficulties, he would use the same method to force the queen to compromise. It is indeed right She is so unfair.

Hongluan seemed to know what he was thinking, and said with a smile: "Does the emperor miss the empress?"

The emperor laughed dryly, not knowing what to say.

Hongluan laughed loudly: "Is the emperor worried that his concubine will be angry?"

"Aren't you angry?"

Hongluan shook her head: "I will care about it, but I won't be angry. The concubine knows that the empress has always been considerate to the emperor. Since the concubine's man is the emperor, the concubine should also keep her duty. You must understand that the emperor It's impossible to accompany the concubine alone, and the concubine has never been such a selfish woman, so even if she cares, the concubine will not stop the emperor, the concubine is very good at comforting herself, so it doesn't matter, as long as the emperor has a concubine in his heart Yes, what can the emperor do if he goes to other empresses' palaces to see them? The concubines themselves are newcomers to the palace, so they can't take all the emperor's favor."

The emperor nodded in satisfaction: "I didn't expect my concubine to be so reasonable, but I was jealous of a gentleman's belly with a villain's heart. I always thought that if I didn't see you for a day, you would be angry."

"Of course I'm angry!" Hong Luan said solemnly, and then leaned on the emperor's shoulder: "But it's okay, the emperor is busy with state affairs and can't take care of the ministers and concubines, so the ministers and concubines can come to the imperial study at any time ?"

The emperor nodded: "Of course, in this palace, you can go wherever you want, and no one will stop you." Then, the emperor added: "But you have to bring a few more people with you when you go out. It’s not good if you get lost in the palace.”

Hongluan knew that he was worried about her safety, so she couldn't help hugging his arm, and nodded vigorously: "The concubine knows."

The emperor patted her on the shoulder, got up and said, "I'll go to see the queen first, I won't be here for lunch, you can eat something yourself, and tell the kitchen to cook whatever you want, don't wrong yourself."

"Yeah." Hong Luan also stood up: "The concubine sends the emperor off."

"No need, it's windy outside, you're already weak, be careful of the cold." After saying that, the emperor walked out, and when he reached the door, he stopped suddenly, and casually asked the maid standing at the door: "Do you know?" I wonder what your master is embroidering?"

The palace maid blessed Fushenzi and replied: "The empress is embroidering a sachet. The empress said that the emperor has not slept very well recently, so she specially learned embroidery from the servants and others, and said that she would make a medicine bag for the emperor."

When the emperor heard this, he immediately smiled and walked out happily.
