Chapter 70
The empress is heading to Fushou Palace.

For the palace banquet of the Dragon Boat Festival, besides the emperor and empress, the empress dowager will also be present.

With Mammy's persuasion, when seeing the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager had a smile on her face.

Zhao Jing didn't think much of the smile on the Empress Dowager's face, even though he had seen some of the Empress Dowager's true face, he didn't think much about it.

Xie Zhao, on the other hand, told her intuitively that the queen mother must have something to ask for, and that's why she smiled like this.

Sure enough, when heading to Yanqing Palace, the Empress Dowager talked with her "Emperor's son", Xie Zhao, who was swapped with Zhao Jing now, about the palace at the Imperial Mausoleum.

"After all, they are your own sisters. If you feel sorry for them, you will feel sorry for Aijia."

Xie Zhao glanced at Zhao Jing, and Zhao Jing was beside her. Hearing this, he had no choice but to do something else, so as not to be misunderstood by the Queen Mother.

"Don't worry, Queen Mother, my ministers will treat the royal girls well." Looking away, Xie Zhao responded with a smile.

When she looked at Zhao Jing, the queen mother also looked over, but she didn't see anything, and then she got the promise again, and she was relieved.

The queen mother never thought that although Xie Zhao agreed, whether to do it or not is another matter.

Therefore, the life of the two princesses in the imperial tomb will still not be easy.

Before the emperor and empress had negotiated, at the Dragon Boat Festival banquet, the concubines in the palace would be promoted.

When the concubines paid their respects, Zhao Jing also mentioned to them that he wanted them to remember the Queen's goodwill.

Therefore, for the concubines, this year's Dragon Boat Palace Banquet is particularly joyful.

When the banquet was halfway through, under Xie Zhao's gesture, Jiang Hai read out the decree of each palace.

In addition to An Meiren who was grounded in Yijing Palace, even Li Meiren, who is now "sick", has received a Jin seal.

Everyone was happy, and the entire Dragon Boat Palace Banquet ended in a very complete and harmonious atmosphere.

Just like when she came, the empress sent the empress dowager back to Fushou Palace.

When the two of them were about to leave, the Empress Dowager gave another warning, and Xie Zhao nodded again.

After leaving Fushou Palace, the emperor and empress took him back to Jianzhang Palace, Zhao Jing turned to look at Xie Zhao.

"It's useless to look at me, they must really suffer." Xie Zhao also specially sent a nanny to teach them to be strict in discipline.

"It's not about this matter, you haven't answered the previous matter." Zhao Jing was talking about going out to play in the palace.

"This..." Xie Zhao thought carefully, "Then...tomorrow."

Before entering the palace, Xie Zhao was often able to play in the street. She changed into a man's attire, and specially applied ointment on her face. Seeing that her complexion was not so fair, she always had a good time.

But after entering the palace, there was no such opportunity.

Now that Zhao Jing took the initiative to mention it, of course she would not let go of this good opportunity.

"Okay." He said the words, and he agreed to the matter. Since Xie Zhao made a choice, of course he will not regret it.

"Dress up as a woman and go out on the street?" Xie Zhao stared at him, Zhao Jing looked at him calmly, and nodded at her.

Xie Zhao raised his eyebrows.

Seeing that she looked away and didn't say anything more, Zhao Jing didn't think much about it. After returning to Jianzhang Palace, the two of them dealt with some matters in the palace and court before resting.

The next day, after finishing the afternoon lecture early, Xie Zhao went to Fengming Palace. Zhao Jing had already packed it up. It was indeed a woman's attire.

"Cang Zhu, change clothes for your master." She sat down and gave instructions to Cang Zhu.

Cang Zhu was startled for a moment, then turned to look at her master, but didn't find anything wrong.

"Change into the clothes you used when you were at home." Xie Zhao said again, Cang Zhu was taken aback again, looked at his master, then saluted Xie Zhao, and went to search for the clothes inside.

Although he knew that after entering the palace, he might not have a chance to leave the palace again, but before the big wedding, Xie Zhao still asked people to put the men's clothing that he specially made at the beginning into the bottom of the box.

At this moment, Cang Zhu turned them all over, and served Zhao Jing to replace them.

Only then did Zhao Jing know that Xie Zhao had men's clothing here, but yesterday...

Obviously, it was to test his attitude, or to tease him, but she didn't expect that she would simply agree.

"Let's go." After everything was settled, Xie Zhao and Zhao Jing left the palace together.

Since it was a trip out of the palace, no one was brought along on the surface, and there were many guards in the dark, unless it was very dangerous, the guards would not appear.

Although it was agreed that Zhao Jing took Xie Zhao to play, but when it comes to understanding the street, Zhao Jing is not as good as Xie Zhao.

"Just stop here." From time to time, Xie Zhao would look out, and when she got to the place she was going, she ordered the carriage to stop.

"Let's go, I'll take you shopping." Reaching out to grab Zhao Jing, Xie Zhao led him forward.

Zhao Jing was happy to be pulled by Xie Zhao, even though Xie Zhao used his body.

But... he always felt that someone was looking at them, with a slightly surprised expression on his face.

At first, Zhao Jing didn't want to understand.

But there was a voice, which reached his ears, and he suddenly realized.

When leaving the palace, Xie Zhao asked Cang Zhu to change into men's clothes for him, and then applied ointment on his face.

In the eyes of outsiders, they are two men. Since he has become Xie Zhao, and his stature is shorter, some people think they are a couple, and he is the female one.

Knowing this, Zhao Jing was a little awkward, but looking at Xie Zhao who was in a hurry in front of him, he didn't want to disappoint her, so he simply pretended that he couldn't hear anything.

The husband and wife have even switched their bodies, so what do they care about?
Xie Zhao also heard those whispered discussions when he passed by.

Although the young Zhao Jing is not as good as she is in Kung Fu riding and archery, she is also a person who has practiced martial arts since she was a child, and she also has sharp eyes and ears.

Although she was walking in front, she kept observing Zhao Jing's reaction, and seeing that he didn't care, she didn't let go.

She took Zhao Jing to a restaurant she used to like very much, and ordered dishes according to each other's current preferences.

Before the big wedding, Zhao Jing also went out of the palace, one of which was to peek at his future queen.

Other than that, every time he left the palace, he just walked around briefly, and he had never tasted the food in the market in the capital, let alone with others.

It is a rare experience like today.

"How's the taste?" Xie Zhao liked it very much. Now that Zhao Jing is swapping with her, he should also like the ones she loved before.

"Not bad." Zhao Jing nodded, he didn't expect that the snacks in the market were no worse than the ones in the palace, to be precise, they had a different flavor.

"I'll take you to another place later." Seeing Zhao Jing eating with gusto, Xie Zhao said with a smile.

After eating, Zhao Jing was dragged by Xie Zhao to another place. It was a very lively street with people coming and going. Zhao Jing had never been to such a place.

"Let's go." He greeted Zhao Jing, and the two squeezed into the crowd together. This place is no different from the place they just walked through. If they were a little careless, the hands they held together were rushed away.

"Ah..." Seeing that Xie Zhao, who was walking in front, disappeared, Zhao Jing hurriedly looked around.

Before he saw Xie Zhao, someone behind him suddenly patted him...

 Xie Zhao: Up and down, what kind of tiger and wolf words are these.
