Happy pastoral concubine

Chapter 928
Tang Huanxi didn't expect that she would once again become a hot topic among the people.

"I'm worried that someone is trying to bring trouble to the east." Seeing her silent expression, Xu Jiudi asked anxiously, "So tomorrow's banquet is bound to be full of swords and swords. Just in case, you'd better take the osmanthus Mammy."

"Sister Jiudi is worried that someone will harm me at the banquet tomorrow?"

"Well, it's always beneficial and harmless to make more preparations." Xu Jiudi patted her on the shoulder and said in a deep voice, "Besides, you are not alone now, and you can't take risks."

"Okay." Tang Huanxi nodded, looking at her with more gratitude.

Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"The queen agreed to go to the banquet?" Xiao Baorui frowned, and said a little irritably, "How could she agree?"

"The Empress is for the emperor's consideration. After all, the Duke Protector holds a very important position in the court. If the empress does not even show up for the birthday banquet of the grand lady of the Duke's Mansion, it will have some bad influence on the empress herself and the emperor. "Wang Yibo looked at him, and said seriously, "The old minister suggested that the emperor should go to congratulate tomorrow's banquet."

"Ridiculous!" Xiao Baorui yelled angrily, "Now that I am the emperor, is it possible that I still have to bow my head to a courtier?"

"Your Majesty, it's not a matter of bowing your head or not, it's a way to win over powerful officials." Facing his monstrous anger, Wang Yibo still didn't change his expression, "Why doesn't Your Majesty think about it from a different angle? The heirs withered and there was only one eldest daughter left. At the beginning, the Duke Protector wanted to send his favorite jewel to the palace to become a concubine, but the emperor issued an imperial decree early on, promising that he would only spend his life with the empress for the rest of his life. There is only one couple in one life, so the Duke Protector will have no resentment in his heart."

"I have a deep relationship with the empress and his wife. Could it be that we have to stuff a few so-called high-status women into the harem before they can let it go?" Xiao Baorui sneered, with undisguised irony in his tone.

"Since ancient times, the rulers have been the Sangongs and Six Courts. But the emperor wants to change this rule. Since the emperor insists on being unique, he has to pay some price." Wang Yibo looked at him and said very sincerely, "Now the emperor In government affairs, there are many reliance on the protector of the country, so a man can bend and stretch."

Xiao Baorui gradually fell silent, and there were some complicated emotions in his eyes.

After a while, he suddenly raised his head to look at Wang Yibo, and asked in a deep voice, "Wang Aiqing, Zhen or Yijin, which one is more demeanor in your eyes?"

Wang Yibo thought for a while, then asked softly, "Does the Emperor want to hear the truth?"

"Ah."

"The emperor's style of acting is too willful. The emperor has the talents of a general, but he is not suitable to sit on this dragon chair. The prince is different. The prince is very demeanor. Besides, the prince acts with the overall situation in mind." Wang Yibo After thinking about it, tell the truth.

Xiao Baorui was silent at first, and then laughed out loud.

"The blue is better than the blue, the crown prince is better than me, I am very pleased." Xiao Baorui smiled sincerely, "Then Wang Aiqing thinks, how long does it take for the crown prince to take my place?"

"Ten years is enough." Wang Yibo said without hesitation, "The prince is smart, but his qualifications are still relatively young. Therefore, I believe that in another ten years, the prince will be able to stand tall and straight in this court!"

"Ten years." Xiao Baorui smiled wryly, "It's going to be ten years. I hope that in these ten years, I can remove some more difficult and dangerous obstacles for him."

Wang Yibo hurriedly lowered his head and stopped talking.

It turned out that the emperor had already planned in his heart.

For tomorrow's banquet, Xu Jiudi contributed a rather expensive gift.

Tang Huanxi looked at the thousand-year-old ginseng in the box, her eyes turned red.

"This is too expensive, this ginseng looks very expensive! Isn't it worth a lot?"

"Daddy bought it from an old man in the countryside." Xu Jiudi said with a shallow smile, "It's very valuable, and it's best to give it to the elderly."

"Sister Jiudi, why don't we change something?" Tang Huanxi expressed some pain, "It's really too precious, I'm still a bit reluctant!"

"Look at how stingy you are," Xu Jiudi looked at her and rubbed her face angrily, "This ginseng looks very precious at first glance, but it's actually not that valuable. The Ganoderma lucidum that Daddy Nian got is even more precious! So, don't worry about it.

Having said that, you are the queen, if the gift you give is too low-grade, then you, the queen, will not be able to raise your head and be a man again in the future. "

Xu Jiudi smiled heartily, "Mother Gui, put away this ginseng first!"

Seeing Tang Huanxi nodded, Nanny Gui carefully took the gold-plated peony box from Caihuan's hand.

"I gave you such a big gift, shouldn't you also make me some delicious food to express my gratitude?"

"What would sister Jiudi want to eat?"

"Hmm... I heard that the cakes you make are more delicious than the memorable pastries. I wonder if I'm so honored?"

"Of course!" Tang Huanxi smiled, and immediately sent someone to the imperial dining room to inform Fu Ling.

Half an hour later, looking at the dessert in front of her, Xu Jiudi raised her eyebrows and asked, "I heard that you personally trained Fu Ling, the chef of the imperial dining room?"

"Well, Poria is very talented in cooking, and most of the time it can be done at one point." Tang Huanxi picked up the silver spoon and began to eat the cake, "Sweet but not greasy, the Black Forest cake made by Poria this time is very delicious. success."

With a curious attitude, Xu Jiudi also picked up the spoon and took a sip gently.

Then it fell into an inextricable mode.

A piece of cake that was nearly six inches was finally divided up completely by these two people.

After eating the cake, Xu Jiudi still had something to say.

So he took another box of egg tarts, and left contentedly.

Aftertaste floor.

Xu Jiudi returned to her room, and immediately changed into a plain light yellow dress embroidered with pomegranate flowers.

This dress fully displayed her good figure.

But before she could enter the hall, Scorpio suddenly appeared and blocked her way.

Xu Jiudi blinked in a daze, "What is this?"

Scorpio didn't speak, but hugged him up, and walked calmly and forcefully to the wing room in the backyard.

Xu Jiudi looked at his profile, and could only hear the beating of his own heart.

squeak-

The moment the door was locked, Scorpio suddenly hugged her, blushing, "Help me..."

"What's wrong with you?" Xu Jiudi realized that his face was rosy and abnormal, as if...

"I was plotted by others." Scorpio hugged her uncontrollably, and whispered softly in her ear, "Help me, Jiudi!"
