Chapter 134 Let's see who will drown first in the vinegar vat 2
A familiar gesture, but not a familiar feeling.For a moment, Zhao Wuyou was stunned, his mind went blank, and Jian Yan's appearance could not be seen clearly in the blurred world.

The breath forcefully poured between her lips and teeth made her feel repulsed, she wanted to push him away, but she, a sick man with no strength to restrain a chicken, really couldn't push away this scholar who had no strength to restrain a chicken.

The next moment, there was a clear crisp sound, accompanied by the silence of all actions.

Both pairs of eyes were red, and they looked at each other, but they were speechless and choked up.

Jian Yan gently took her into his arms, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't be impulsive. But Hehuan, even if you don't love me, you shouldn't easily decide my life. I know my existence will drag you down, but I will Try to be careful. I have no other requirements, just to be with you. It doesn't matter if you don't want to give me a chance, but you can't deprive me of my belief in waiting for you."

"I know, I don't know martial arts and I don't have your resourcefulness, I don't understand the current situation of the government and I don't know your schemes and schemes. To you, I am a waste. I will drag you down and become your entanglement and burden. But Hehuan, is it wrong for me to like you? You don’t want me, and don’t push me away. I am a person, not an object. Let me decide for myself, okay?”

Zhao Wuyou didn't know what to say, but finally pushed him away.Looking up at the bright red fingerprints on Jian Yan's cheeks, she narrowed her eyes slightly, "Go and wash your face, and I'll ask someone to apply ice cubes to you. How decent is this appearance?"

After finishing speaking, she walked away without saying a word about what happened just now.

Jian Yan stood there, wondering if Zhao Wuyou was angry?But she doesn't look angry.He couldn't figure out Zhao Wuyou's thoughts more and more. Such a city was so deep that people couldn't see through it or guess it through.

But if it can be easily seen through by others, then it is not Zhao Wuyou, how can he survive in this court that eats people but does not spit out bones?

Zhao Wuyou's feet were a little hurried, she didn't want to stay here for a while, but she ran into someone's arms as soon as she turned a corner, and was hugged by someone.The familiar breath gushed from top to bottom, and she raised her head in shock, her eyes flustered.

"Master Zhao is so courageous. He dared to mess with the palace with the sons of the Jian family. Do you really think this is your Shangshu Mansion?" Mu Baili sneered, his tone was a little slow, as if he was suppressing something.

Zhao Wuyou looked at him, why did he feel that when he said this, there was some element of gnashing of teeth?
With a helpless sigh, Zhao Wuyou quickly looked around.

But Mu Baili leaned down and grabbed the back of her neck with his hand, "Does Mr. Zhao find it strange that there is no one here in such a huge palace?" After speaking, he grabbed her delicate jaw , forcing her to look at him, "If someone sees it, I don't know how Mr. Zhao will explain to the emperor and Mr. Jian."

Zhao Wuyou frowned, "Thank you, Lord Qiantui, for your kindness."

The next moment, he grabbed her slender waist, pulled her hard, and directly brought her into his arms, and the two of them were tightly pressed together.He sniffed greedily, the faint fragrance of pear blossoms on her body, remembering the scene between her and Jian Yan just now, he subconsciously squeezed her waist tightly.

Zhao Wuyou frowned in pain, and kindly reminded, "You hurt me."

"Does it hurt?" Mu Baili smiled coquettishly, his black pupils reflected the flickering glimmer of light in the palace, "If you know it hurts, remember it. Fortunately, I passed by today and solved Master Zhao's worries, otherwise ——Master Zhao is afraid that his reputation will be ruined."

The next moment, she pushed him away, a slight chill appeared between her brows, "Don't touch Jian Yan."

"If you say this for me, don't touch Xuelan, how would Mr. Zhao think?" Mu Baili retorted.

Zhao Wuyou took a deep breath, "It is my fault what happened to Xuelan, but the matter has come to this point, I hope Lord Qiantose can look forward. Those who look back frequently will always lose."

"Do you think this seat will lose?" Mu Baili approached step by step.

Zhao Wuyou stepped back step by step, straightened his body slightly, "Master Qiantui can't afford to lose?"

"It's not that I can't afford to lose, it's just that I feel unwilling to lose to Master Zhao." Mu Baili smiled slyly, "If I really lose, how can Master Zhao compensate me?"

"If you lose, you will be defeated. Do you still want to make up for it?" Zhao Wuyou's body leaned heavily against the wall. The cold feeling made her body tremble slightly, and she was immediately pulled back into his arms.

"This is the imperial palace!" Zhao Wuyou breathed slightly.

If you teach people to see it, how decent it is.

"Lord Zhao just now—" Mu Baili sighed helplessly, "Why didn't you think that this is the imperial palace?"

After the sound fell, Zhao Wuyou quickly raised his hand, this slap almost landed on Mu Baili's face, but fortunately Mu Baili grabbed his wrist immediately.He is not Jian Yan, and his reaction sensitivity is naturally better than ordinary people.

"What are you doing?" He raised his eyebrows coldly, this girl dared to make a move.

"Don't you want to learn from Jian Yan? Then I have to accompany you to the end. Lord Qiantui saw Jian Yan kissing me, but did he ever see Jian Yan get slapped by me? If Lord Qiantui wants to taste this slap, But it doesn't matter, I, Zhao Wuyou, will definitely not be polite." She gritted her teeth and withdrew her hand fiercely.

The little girl was mean and ungrateful, she seemed really angry.

But it was really his fault to be so presumptuous in this palace.He should know her temper, always cautious, always treading on thin ice, if he caused trouble for her by doing this, I'm afraid she really won't talk to him in the future.

Sighing helplessly, Mu Baili let go, and Zhao Wuyou quickly escaped from his clutches, and after gouging him out, he stood within a safe range several meters away from him.

As everyone knows, if he really wants to make a move, the distance of several zhang from you is only between his fingers.

"Master?" Xue Lan's voice came from not far away.

Zhao Wuyou smiled brightly, "Master Qiantose's future wife is looking for you, so hurry up and go back to be gentle, lest she get lost when she first comes to the palace! If you accidentally go to the wrong place and go to Yongshou Palace, then you will be Qiantose." Grandpa's loss."

Xue Lan stepped forward quickly, "Master, why are you here? The palace banquet is about to begin, let's go!" Seeing Zhao Wuyou standing there coldly, he frowned, "Master Zhao is also here."

"You can pretend that I don't exist, and pretend that you haven't seen me." Zhao Wuyou chuckled teasingly, with a bit of teasing, "A beauty only has Mr. Ruyi in her eyes, and it's normal if she can't see me."

These words were for Mu Baili.

Mu Baili raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "Master Zhao's words are so sour."

"Why didn't Lord Qiantose say that it smelled like blood? It's a pity that such a beauty couldn't get into the sect of my teaching workshop." Zhao Wuyou snorted twice. For some reason, he always felt panicked, " Farewell!"

She didn't want to stay any longer, so she turned around and left.

"Master Zhao!" Xue Lan stepped forward, "What do you mean by that? Where is Jiaofang Division?"

"I really want to know?" Zhao Wuyou turned back, looking at Mu Baili with cold eyes, "Then ask your Lord Qiantose and let him teach you well! Of course, I hope that Miss Xuelan still remembers the day when I Talking to you." She glanced at Mu Baili meaningfully, "If Miss Xuelan has figured it out and doesn't want to be a widow for the rest of her life, why not come to the Shangshu Mansion, I, Zhao Wuyou, welcome you anytime."

Watching Zhao Wuyou's leaving back, Xue Lan clenched her fists tightly in her sleeves, her eyes were cold and lifeless.Turning around, Mu Baili had gone a long way.Confused for a moment, Xue Lan hurriedly followed, "Master?"

"I asked you to follow, not to let you act recklessly in the palace." Mu Baili's voice was gentle, but between the lines, there was a trace of coldness.

"Zhao Wuyou is not good for you." Xue Lan accompanied, "Why are you conniving everywhere?"

"She is a first-rank official, a minister of the Ministry of Rites, and a young teacher of the prince. Who are you? And who is this seat?" Mu Baili turned cold, "Xue Lan, there are some things you can't do if you want to. When you are in the palace, you should be careful when you are in the court. It is very cold in the heights, and it is not as arbitrary as you have seen."

Xue Lan narrowed her eyes, "I'm sorry, I—"

"That's all!" Mu Baili walked away, "I was having a banquet outside at that time, so there is no need to follow!"

Lu Guoan stepped forward, glanced at Xue Lan, who looked gloomy, and sighed helplessly, "Miss Lan doesn't know something, and the thing that Lord Qiantose dislikes the most is other people's presumptuous opinions. Lord Qiantose is used to strategizing, if you Breaking the plan of Lord Qiantui will naturally make him unhappy. If Miss Lan is really good for Lord Qiantose, please think twice before acting again in the future, and don't be reckless again."

"It's okay to be safe now with the protection of the Thousand-year-old Lord. In the future, if the Thousand-year-old Lord is not around, how will you deal with yourself? People always gain their wisdom by eating a pit, and if they stick to their old ways and stay where they are, I'm afraid—survival." No."

After speaking, Lu Guoan bowed and followed Mu Baili.

Xue Lan's face turned pale, and she stood still.

She has gone through the romantic places, but she really doesn't know the rules of the palace, and the fighting in the court.As long as she knew something, she felt that she would not be so reckless as she is now and make him unhappy.

"I'll be careful." She whispered to herself.

Before the palace banquet started, the imperial garden was already full of excitement. Although they were all civil and military officials, everyone was smiling, and when they saw Zhao Wuyou coming in, they quickly closed their collars and showed respect.

There are inevitably some old officials here, most of all, they can't see the charm of a charming master like Zhao Wuyou.A good trick at a young age, playing with the emperor between applause and applause, won a high-ranking official and rich salary, and became a first-rank official.

But Zhao Wuyou doesn't care about these, she and Mu Baili are the protagonists today, so there is no need to care about anyone's face.

Being in the high hall is her own ability, and it has nothing to do with anyone.If you can't see it, just get out.If you want to gain a foothold in the court, you'd better keep their minds in check, otherwise don't blame her for being rude, she is not a good man or a faithful woman.

Mu Baili also rushed over, and the two giants confronted each other. The originally noisy and bustling Royal Garden suddenly became as quiet as a pool of stagnant water, and needles could be heard.

She stood there without any emotional fluctuations on her face, as if she was looking at a stranger.Because it was a palace banquet, no one needed to wear official uniforms, she was still dressed in plain clothes, not changing her old appearance as a scholar.

"Lord Zhao!" Mu Baili said lukewarmly, his phoenix eyes fixed on her face thoughtfully.

Zhao Wuyou raised his lips in a half-smile, "Nine thousand years old."

A duel between masters, the mountain rain is about to come, and the wind is full of wind.

The sound of "The emperor is here, the empress is here" freed everyone from the awkward and tense atmosphere. Everyone present knelt on the ground plopping, shouting, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, empress, thousand live, thousand live! Thousands of years old."

"Get up!" The emperor dressed in a yellow robe, glanced at everyone, and finally fell on Mu Baili.

Zhao Wuyou raised the corner of his eyes, seeing the emperor's expression, he knew he was looking for someone.As for who to look for, there is no need to say anything, just think about it, and the emperor is naturally looking for a beauty.The delicate beauty, the alluring foreign woman, of course - definitely not Mu Baili.

With a sneer in his heart, Zhao Wuyou turned his head and glanced at Mu Baili, his eyes were cold.

Mu Baili didn't take it seriously, and stood up with everyone, his respectful appearance was the same as when he was a slave in the past.His respect to the emperor is not inferior to that of Zhao Wuyou, two cautious people get together, they are extra cautious.

In front of all the officials, Mu Baili is life and death; to the emperor, Mu Baili is just an obedient slave.

"Sit down, everyone. Today is a palace banquet. It is a celebration banquet I set up for Zhao Aiqing and Mu Baili, who is nine thousand years old. From now on, the two lovers must support each other and help me govern Daye so as to protect the country and the people. It can be seen that the emperor is still very happy, although he did not find the face he wanted to see.

But today, the concubines sat in a bunch, but they didn't see Fu Yuying and Xia Lan. One could imagine that these two people might have some difficulties.Who didn't know that the two Jieyu in the palace were both pregnant, so they didn't care.

The queen didn't bring Qin An out, and when she was sitting beside the emperor, she glanced at Mu Baili intentionally or unintentionally, and finally she rolled her eyes on Zhao Wuyou.

After two days of recuperation, Zhao Wuyou's body has improved slightly, so his complexion is not as pale as when he returned to Beijing.

Standing in the bright candlelight, this sick young man was dressed in plain clothes.Mu Baili and Mu Baili next to each other reflect each other, and they are more and more like a banished fairy.Standing there, she exudes a touch of elegance, and her gestures and gestures carry an innate noble temperament, like a jade carving, not stained by the dust of the world.

Such a man is enough to make women admire, not to mention he has a very handsome face.The only fly in the ointment is that it is a little thin and thin.

The one she and Mu Baili went to was simply perfect two extremes.

One is as evil as a demon, and the other is as arrogant as a fairy.

The queen was a little fascinated, but because it was a palace banquet, there were all civil and military officials under it.Under Jingyi's quiet reminder, she reluctantly lowered her eyebrows and accepted this thought.

The emperor didn't like to be cautious in the first place, so he said "casual", and the excitement started again.Singing and dancing, silk and bamboo orchestras, and the melodious sounds are melodious inside and outside the palace.

Zhao Wuyou's body has just recovered, so naturally she doesn't know how to drink, so although there is wine on her case, there is white water in the cup.Her gaze swept across the crowd gently, she didn't like such noise.After drinking for three rounds, she excused herself from the palace banquet and found a remote place to hide.

Xi Mo stepped forward to wait on him, "My lord is unwell?"

"No." Zhao Wuyou sighed softly, "Have the things been delivered?"

"The servant has already handed the ice to Mr. Jian, and he will understand what Mr. Jian thinks." Xi Mo replied in a low voice.

Zhao Wuyou nodded, "Go down first, I'll sit back alone."

"But this—" Xi Mo was worried.

"There is nothing to worry about, this is the palace, who dares to make mistakes." Zhao Wuyou said.

"Yes!" Xi Mo bowed and stepped back obediently.

The moonlight was just right, and she stood in the moonlight in plain clothes, looking at the palace wall covered in silver, with her hands behind her back.The wind was cool, she coughed twice, her face flushed slightly.

But there were clear footsteps behind him, and then it was Xia Lan's voice.

"Master Zhao." Xia Lan stood behind her, looking haggard in the moonlight.

"Lan Jieyu?" Zhao Wuyou bowed and bowed, "Shouldn't Empress Jieyu have a baby in the palace? Why did she come here? If people see it, I'm afraid there will be a misunderstanding. Farewell!"

Zhao Wuyou is not a fool, she told Fu Yuying not to touch Xia Lan, how could she let herself make such a lowly mistake?

"What is Mr. Zhao worried about?" Xia Lan stood where she was.

"I was worried that the emperor would find me, so I hurried back after taking a breath." Zhao Wuyou didn't want to stay.

"I heard that Mr. Zhao ordered his subordinates to buy the Wanmin Book." Xia Lan got straight to the point.

It was from this sentence that Zhao Wuyou had already heard Xia Lan's meaning.

With a cold snort, Zhao Wuyou turned to look at her quietly, "Ms. Jieyu is in the palace, but she can know the situation outside at the first time. It seems that the family of the Duke's mansion has made up her mind. That's it, Why did Lady Jieyu come to look for me?"

Hearing this, Xia Lan immediately knelt down to Zhao Wuyou, "Master Zhao, please take it as my beg, please accept the letter of Wanmin, and don't submit it to the king. As long as Master Zhao can let the Xia family survive, Ji Lan is grateful."

"What do I want your gratitude for?" Zhao Wuyou asked.

Xia Lan pursed her lips, and her face was extremely pale in the moonlight, "I know my father was arrogant and domineering back then, and my sister didn't know how to restrain herself, but they have already been taught a lesson, and I hope Master Zhao can hold his hand high."

Hearing this, Zhao Wuyou leaned over and squatted down, smiled meaningfully, gently raised Xia Lan's jaw with his fingertips, looked at this beautiful face with pear blossoms and rain, "I hold my hands high today, and I will have them in the future." My body is broken to pieces. Madam Jieyu, do you think I will trade my wealth and life for a tear of your mother's?"

Xia Lan burst into tears, "Master Zhao, my father won't—"

"Ms. Jieyu is extremely intelligent, she knows how to advance by retreating, understands men's thoughts, and knows that they will sympathize with the weak. But you misunderstood me, even though I, Zhao Wuyou, am also a person who loves women and women, but I still have a clear sense of grievances and grievances. Don't you know what your father is thinking? You think I'm a three-year-old child? Huh?" Zhao Wuyou dragged his tail.

Xia Lan's eyes were a little apprehensive, "Master Zhao, as long as you accept the Wanmin letter, our Xia family will definitely keep our own place and never interfere with the affairs of the court again."

"Your father said that?" Zhao Wuyou sneered.

Xia Lan was silent.

"Do you believe it?" Her sharp eyes fixed on Xia Lan.

Xia Lan opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.

Zhao Wuyou sighed, and stood up slowly, "Even you don't believe it, how can you teach me to believe it? It's not the first time I've met your father, I know better than you what your father's temperament is. , but if there is a comeback, it will definitely become a prairie fire. Do you think it is easier for me to deal with a flame, or easier to put out a big fire?"

After speaking, she walked away.

"Zhao Wuyou!" Xia Lan stood up and shouted, "Why are you being aggressive?"

"It's you who want to humiliate yourself, so what have I to do with you?" Zhao Wuyou looked back at her, "If you keep yourself safe, I can allow you to die of old age in the palace and become rich until death. This is my advice and an ultimatum. Young Master Only by playing tricks can you save your life. As for your father, it is the winner or loser between us men, and has nothing to do with you, a concubine in the harem."

Xia Lan stood there with tears in her eyes, she knew what Zhao Wuyou meant, and also understood that the matter was a foregone conclusion.In the future, unless there is no Zhao family, no Zhao Song and Zhao Wuyou, there will be no day for her Duke's mansion to turn around.

This kind of thought is actually terrible.

However, women who have entered the palace have no way out other than relying on the family and the emperor.

Zhao Wuyou was in a hurry to leave, she didn't want people to see herself standing with Xia Lan, and the emperor's ears would think that she was having an affair with concubines in the dirty palace.It's better not to provoke this unnecessary mess.

Ahead, there are wolves blocking the way.

Zhao Wuyou rubbed the center of his brows, he could meet this evil spirit wherever he went.

Mu Baili was sitting on the railing, Lu Guoan saw that it was Zhao Wuyou, and immediately led the people back down.

"What do you want?" Zhao Wuyou asked.

Seeing that Mu Baili didn't say a word, she stepped up and walked in front of him, but he quickly grabbed her wrist, "Master Zhao really doesn't know how to pity and cherish jade."

"Master Qiansui is saying that your thousand-year-old body is as fragrant as jade?" Zhao Wuyou pretended to be confused with understanding.

"She is indeed different from her father, siblings." Mu Baili looked at her meaningfully, "It seems that Mr. Zhao's future journey will not be easy. This palace is deep, and finally met an opponent."

Zhao Wuyou sneered, "Could it be that the Lord Qiansui also came to persuade me and held his hands high so that Xia Donglou could make a comeback and join hands with your Dongchang to destroy my Zhao family? Mu Baili, do you think I'm a three-year-old child? Resurrection This kind of thing is not suitable for me to appear in front of."

She withdrew her hand violently and looked at him coldly.

On his thick and colorful face, the pair of phoenix eyes were still extremely clear. No matter how bitter and mean she was, his attitude towards her seemed to always be gentle. What an unforgivable mistake the Xia family made at the beginning. The people's will, the Xia family's vain attempt to enjoy the palace with its own strength, disregarding the people of the world, really deserve to die."

Zhao Wuyou took a deep breath, "Since Lord Qiantui knows everything, he shouldn't come to persuade me."

"I'm not here to persuade you, I'm here to see the fun." Mu Baili smiled coldly, "The Xia family and the Zhao family have one prosperity and one decline, if they don't keep up, today's Xia family will be tomorrow's." The Zhao family."

"With Lord Qiantose, everything is possible, so—" She stepped forward slowly, leaned over and whispered in his ear, "I have to think of a way to avoid future troubles."

Mu Baili pinched her delicate chin, and his warm fingertips caressed her lips leisurely. The alternating hot and cold touch was really excellent, "I don't know how Mr. Zhao can prevent future troubles forever? After leaving this seat, it’s still—"

"You won't be like a woman in the harem, trapping you with children, right?" Zhao Wuyou laughed mockingly, "Master Qiantose thinks too much, it's too unrealistic." She straightened up, "Farewell."

"Don't you want to ask, Jian Yan?" Mu Baili said coldly.

Zhao Wuyou stopped in his tracks, "Do you dare to touch him?"

"Why don't I dare?" He said in a cold tone.

She looked back at him, her eyes were cold and cold, "Mu Baili, you can deal with me whatever you want, the only thing is, don't touch Jian Yan. He has nothing to do with everything, and the grievances between you and me are meaningless to burden him. "

"You care about him very much, that's the relationship." Mu Baili got up and looked down at her condescendingly, "Did Mr. Zhao ever think that when you touch Xuelan, one day the Japanese seat will let you know what's going on?" Heartache."

"Miss Xuelan is the favorite of Lord Qiantui. I will ask the emperor to give her a marriage, and I won't embarrass her anymore. Are you satisfied?" She closed her eyes, and a fleeting sadness flashed in her eyes. After turning around, she never looked back.

Mu Baili stood there with gloomy eyes, not knowing how to reply for a moment.He watched her leave, thinking that she probably went to find Jian Yan.If he said a word, she would be in fear. It was really sincere that she was so worried about Jian Jiaerlang.

If she didn't have this official uniform, she probably would have married Jian Yan at this age.Such childhood sweethearts, childhood sweethearts, and the appearance of a man and a woman are indeed a match made in heaven.

Thinking of this in his heart, Mu Baili felt inexplicably anxious, and always felt that something was crawling around in his heart, which made people unhappy.If he is unhappy, he must make everyone unhappy!

From a long distance, Lu Guoan could also sense the hostility coming from Mu Baili. Just seeing him standing there motionless, Lu Guoan knew that his master was angry!Got angry!
The calmer Mu Baili became, the more anger he felt in his heart.

Lu Guoan thought, it's over, it's over, this meeting is really about to end.With a twitch in his heart, Lu Guoan subconsciously tensed up.

Zhao Wuyou originally wanted to find Jian Yan, but she was really worried about Jian Yan, for fear that Mu Baili would attack Jian Yan.But after thinking about it, this is the imperial palace, and Mu Baili will not be unfavorable to Jian Yan on such a day, otherwise he will spoil the emperor's interest, and there will be endless pursuit in the future.

After all, Jian Yan is the son of Jian Weizhong, and this Jian Weizhong is now the hero of Yingqu dredging, and the emperor is still waiting to reward him for his meritorious service.

"Young Master?" Xi Mo was puzzled, "Why didn't you leave? Young Master Jian is just outside, just walk two steps past this door."

"Go and take a look. I'm going back to the banquet. If I've been out for too long, it will inevitably make people suspicious." Zhao Wuyou turned around and walked towards the banquet.

Xi Mo was taken aback for a moment, then looked around, and understood a little in his heart.After all, it is an important place in the palace, so it should be avoided.

Back at the banquet, the emperor was already drunk, and when he saw Zhao Wuyou coming back, he waved at her, "Zhao Aiqing, come here and sit beside me." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pushed the beauty in his arms away. out.

Zhao Wuyou folded his lapel, picked up the cup on his desk and walked slowly towards the emperor.

After saluting respectfully, Zhao Wuyou smiled gently, "I'm unwell, and I'm not suitable for drinking alcohol. I can only use tea instead of wine, and toast the emperor. May my emperor live forever, and the country will last forever."

The emperor smiled, "Zhao Aiqing don't want to spoil the fun, I will celebrate with you today, how can you not drink a drop of wine? I know your body, come, come, we are not greedy, you just accompany me Happy happy."

Xiao Dezi had already served the wine cup, Zhao Wuyou hesitated.Her health has just improved, and Wen Gu told her that she really should not drink alcohol.Ordinary people drink alcohol to hurt their health, but her drinking is undoubtedly a slow suicide.

But the emperor is a joke, who would dare to disobey the emperor's intentions in front of civil and military officials?
Picking up the wine cup, Zhao Wuyou said with a nonchalant smile, "Before drinking, I have an answer."

The emperor's hand holding the cup froze slightly, "What's the matter, Zhao Aiqing should wait until the court to discuss with the ministers. Now this is a palace banquet, it is really inappropriate—"

"No, Your Majesty, this is a good thing." Zhao Wuyou smiled, and then someone stepped forward to deliver a roll of red paper, "The people inside and outside the capital felt the greatness of the king's kindness, and specially wrote the Wanmin Letter to thank the king, and the Yingqu was dredged. , to benefit the country and the people. Your Majesty, all people praise the Emperor as an unrivaled emperor!"

The emperor immediately put down the cup, and Xiao Dezi happily rolled out the red scroll. The dense handwriting on it and the gorgeous rhetoric of praise made the emperor smile.But after the wide-eyed smile, the emperor's face tightened slightly.

The emperor is determined to achieve Taoism and become a fairy, but it does not mean that he is a fool.

On the contrary, the emperor is actually very smart.

He won't be so stupid as to slap himself in the face and admit his past mistakes.The emperor is right and will never be wrong.Thinking about the dredging of Furong Qu and Ying Qu, the emperor had severely punished Zhao Wuyou, and even made Zhao Wuyou suffer.

Now that the Book of Ten Thousand Peoples came to him, if he accepted it, it would be tantamount to admitting his mistake.Of course, it doesn't matter if he doesn't want to admit his mistakes, there is only one way, and that is to blame all the mistakes on the Xia family.

It was Xia Qiongzhi who urged him to build the Furong Canal at the beginning, but now that the emperor wants to be alone and be praised by all the people, he has to make everyone in the world think that it was the evil concubine who brought disaster to the country in the past, not the emperor himself who wanted to enjoy himself.

The emperor looked at Wanmin's book, feeling deeply moved, but this just showed Zhao Wuyou's great righteousness for the country.Such a righteous person will definitely be loyal to the imperial court, and will do his best until he dies.

All civil and military officials knelt down and saluted, shouting, "Your Majesty is wise, long live my emperor."

The emperor smiled, anyway, he was right, it was the Xia family's daughter who was wrong.In this way, Xia Lan's proposal could only be aborted.The emperor thought, the daughter of the Xia family would no longer have the face to propose to restore the status of the Xia family.

In addition to being helpless, it also saves a little trouble.

"Thanks to Qing's management, Daye's national fortune is so long." The emperor raised his glass with a smile, "Come, I respect Zhao Aiqing."

Zhao Wuyou was not easy to shirk, so he drank wine immediately.Apart from Yunzheng's pear blossom wine, Zhao Wuyou had never drank any other wine.Now this throat is hot, burning like a fire, really uncomfortable.She coughed twice, her face flushed slightly.

"My minister is too drunk, please forgive me." Zhao Wuyou leaned over.

"It's okay, come sit beside me." The emperor invited Zhao Wuyou to sit with him through the strength of wine.

Zhao Wuyou pursed her lips, and with all the officials present, she couldn't refuse, so she could only sit down as promised.Just as he sat down, he looked up and saw Mu Baili who had returned to his original position.
