Chapter 318 White Pear Tremella Lily Soup (asking for monthly ticket)
Seeing that the Queen Mother had no intention of blaming him, Ling Yin climbed up with a smile and said, "Queen Mother, isn't this also a good thing for the Qin State? With a god like you, the people will believe that the destiny is with the Qin State."
Zhao Yuanxi didn't think that Ling Yin was praising her at all. What kind of god-like person is this? A god-like person who pretends to be a god?
However, since this matter has nothing to do with her, all we need to do is let time slowly settle it down, and there is no need to interfere too much.
"I went out this time and met your father."
Ling Yin's face froze slightly, and he asked cautiously, "What did he say to you? Don't believe him! He has a bad temper and is weird. He always dislikes me, and he hates it most when I idle around all day..."
He babble on and on, leaving Zhao Yuanxi stunned and laughing. "I haven't even said a few words yet, and you've already spilled the beans."
Ling Yin chuckled, "What did he say to you?"
"He said he was very grateful for me taking care of you, and asked you to come back and visit when you have time. This wasn't an order, just a message for me to bring."
Ling Yin lowered his head and remained silent for a short while. After a long while, he said, "I understand."
"Okay, go back first!"
"The Queen Mother worries about other people's family affairs, but doesn't she care about her own family's affairs? The King of Qin fell ill not long ago, and I heard that he hasn't recovered yet!" Madam Mi said quietly. The Queen Mother has met many people since returning to the palace, but she has not met the most important person yet.
"Is he ill? What did the doctor say?"
"What else can I say? It's just a cold! It's been getting colder these past few days. Even Prince Fusu has been feeling a little unwell recently. The King of Qin is so busy every day, sometimes he even skips meals. Even the strongest man can't stand it. The doctors are all worried!"
Zhao Yuanxi frowned, "I'll go see him."
Fusu and Ziying wanted to follow, but Madam Mi held them back and coaxed them in a low voice, "My two lords, I've made some fresh food. Would you like to try some? And this young lady, come over here too!"
She looked up at Lu Zhi and smiled gently.
Since following the Queen Mother into the palace, Lu Zhi felt deeply stupid. Everyone around her did better than her and seemed smarter than her.
"Since the Queen Mother has accepted you as her disciple, there is no need to be too restrained in this palace. Just follow her and learn from her."
Lü Zhi nodded somewhat awkwardly, "Thank you, Madam, for your guidance."
Inside the Zhengyang Palace, there was a faint coughing sound. Ying Zheng was indeed sick, but it was not as exaggerated as Madam Mi said. He just had a little discomfort in his throat.
He continued to handle government affairs as usual and review the memorials sent by his subordinates.
There was suddenly a cup of tea on his right, but he ignored it and continued with his own work.
Zhao Yuanxi checked the time and reminded him, "You should rest."
It's time for dinner. No matter how important the political affairs are, they cannot be delayed during the meal.
Ying Zheng's hand trembled, and a large stain immediately appeared on the memorial. The bright red was too dazzling. He crossed out the ink stain and rewrote his comments next to it. Then he slowly said, "When did the Queen Mother come?"
"I've been here for a while. I heard you were sick. Are you feeling better now?"
"What could possibly happen to me? It's just those imperial doctors making a fuss."
"No matter if it's a fuss or not, we still have to eat! These political matters can't be avoided, and it doesn't matter if we deal with them later. Come with me to eat first."
Zhao Yuanxi discovered that Ying Zheng had some rebellious qualities. For example, he now acted as if he was not going to eat until he finished his work, and no one could persuade him.
"Do you feel there's no rush to eat, or do you not want to eat with me?" Zhao Yuanxi was also angry.
He can be angry, but he shouldn't take it out on his body.
These memorials are not military intelligence, but tax revenue reported by county governors from various places. Is it necessary for him to rush to deal with them without eating?
"Follow me!" Zhao Yuanxi closed his memorial, snatched the pen from his hand, dragged him out by the arm, and forced him to sit at the table. "Eat!"
Ying Zheng: ...
Zhao Yuanxi introduced: "This is the carrot and pork rib soup I asked the kitchen to prepare, along with some light dishes. This white pear, white fungus, and lily soup has the effect of moistening the lungs and relieving coughs. Drink more later."
Ying Zheng silently put down his chopsticks and said, "The Queen Mother is looking at me like this. I really can't eat."
"Then I won't look at you!" Zhao Yuanxi also prepared a table of dishes for himself. In comparison, the dishes on Ying Zheng's table seemed too bland.
Zhao Yuanxi noticed Ying Zheng looking at him from time to time, and thought he was greedy for the food on his table, so he smiled and said, "Stop looking at me. I won't give you any more food if you keep looking at me. If you don't take good care of yourself, you will have to eat this every day. When you feel better, I will make you some of your favorite food."
Ying Zheng wanted to explain, but couldn't help but smile, then he lowered his head and concentrated on eating the portion on his table.
Although the taste is a bit light, it is not bad, especially the pear soup, which tastes very fresh and sweet.
"I went to a lot of places this time." Zhao Yuanxi didn't care about talking while eating. He said casually while eating, "I found that I still like Xianyang a little bit. And I missed you a lot these days! Although you must think I'm lying, it doesn't matter if you don't believe me. Anyway, I said it."
Only then did Ying Zheng realize that although the Queen Mother was gentle on weekdays, she was actually a very domineering person. After all, who would show kindness with such an attitude of "I don't care whether you want it or not, I've done it anyway"?
Seeing that Ying Zheng's expression didn't change, Zhao Yuanxi felt a chill in his heart. "Don't you want to say something?"
"Yes, I heard it all."
Just like that? Zhao Yuanxi felt even icy.
But she didn't realize that Ying Zheng had eaten everything.
"I'll come see you tomorrow. Rest early these few days."
"good."
Halfway through the walk, Zhao Yuanxi suddenly remembered that she had not yet told Ying Zheng about the frequent land transactions in Qin State, and she had to find a way to curb this situation.
But thinking that Ying Zheng seemed to be too busy recently, she didn't want to disturb him anymore. The land transaction could not be resolved overnight, not to mention that the world was still unsettled. If reforms were carried out rashly, it would easily lead to chaos. It would be better for her to organize the solution now and hand it over to him for decision when the world was unified.
Now that he had something to do, Zhao Yuanxi instantly became energetic again.
In the next few days, Zhao Yuanxi went to visit Ying Zheng on time. Seeing that he was eating and sleeping well, he was very satisfied.
Sure enough, there is nothing that brute force can’t solve!
Isn’t this quite obedient!
Fusu saw that his father was in a good mood these days. Thinking that his eldest mother had been accompanying his father to dinner every day since her return, and had no time to accompany them, he asked in a low voice, "Father, are you feeling better?"
