Chapter 145: You are the eagle and I am the dog!



Just when Yu Huatian and Lin Yuchen took action together to intimidate the aristocratic families, and the aristocratic families then began to plot counterattacks.

Zhao Xin is also making final preparations before leaving Beijing.

In fact, the actions of Yu Huatian and Lin Yuchen were also part of his preparation.

It is to ensure that during the time he is away from Beijing, he can intimidate the aristocratic families and some people with ulterior motives.

In addition, he also summoned Su Qingyu and Lin Yuyan to his side to entrust them with some tasks.

When they heard that he was going to leave the capital in disguise, the two women felt a little uneasy.

Needless to say, Su Qingyu has become increasingly dependent on Zhao Xin since she was favored by him. Although their status determines that they cannot be together day and night like ordinary couples, she is still the only one favored by Zhao Xin before Lin Yuyan came.

It even made her feel a little uneasy, worrying that she would leave a reputation of being overly favored in history books. She felt both happy and worried.

So after Lin Yuyan was favored by the emperor, although she felt a little strange in her heart, she also felt relieved.

At this time, I suddenly heard that Zhao Xin was going to leave Beijing for a while. I couldn't help but feel panic-stricken and my heart felt like it had nowhere to go.

However, she always remembered her position as queen. Although she was at a loss, she forced herself to remain calm and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. While Your Majesty is away, I, Yuyan, and I will take care of the palace for Your Majesty and wait for Your Majesty's early return."

Lin Yuyan was also feeling anxious. Upon hearing this, she hurriedly said, "I will definitely do my utmost to assist the Queen."

As he said this, he couldn't help but glance at Zhao Xin. Seeing that he was smiling at him and the queen, he quickly lowered his head, feeling a little embarrassed.

After all, she had just received the favor, and her feelings towards Zhao Xin were particularly complicated and indescribable.

I kind of like it, but also a little afraid, a little attached, but also a little unsure how to respond.

Especially when wearing clothes.

But when he heard that Zhao Xin was leaving, he couldn't help but feel nervous.

Zhao Xin saw that the two had different expressions, but both were trying to remain calm. He felt a little amused, and of course a little reluctant.

But on the surface, he smiled slightly, pretending to be relieved and nodded, saying: "Okay, I am relieved about you two. During my absence, you just need to take good care of them. If anyone in the palace behaves unruly, don't worry, kill them if you should, and capture them if you should.

Qingyu, you are kind-hearted and sensible, but sometimes being too kind is inappropriate. When appropriate, you should harden your heart.

Yuyan, please help the queen.

If there is a major issue that cannot be resolved, please contact Yu Huatian or Liu Muzhi."

Upon hearing this, they both agreed.

Seeing that both of them had taken his words to heart, Zhao Xin felt relieved.

He is not too worried about the palace now.

After his rectification and cleansing, those who were dishonest basically no longer existed in this world.

Although there are still concubines left by the previous owner in the harem, they have been very well-behaved recently, otherwise Zhao Xin would not tolerate them.

With Yu Huatian and others around, there will be no accidents.

But I still have to remind you, it's better to be safe than sorry.

After giving the instructions, he ordered someone to serve the meal. It was the first time for the three of them to have a meal together.

However, because Zhao Xin brought up topics from time to time during the meal, and both of them were sensible and tolerant, the meal was quite harmonious.

Moreover, people's feelings are developed through getting along with each other. If you talk more, the barriers will disappear.

Lin Yuyan and Su Qingyu also gradually became more casual.

As they were talking, somehow they ended up talking about Lin Yuyan's mother.

Zhao Xin asked, "Is Madam Nangong doing well now? While I'm away, why not bring her into the palace to stay for a while?"

Lin Yuyan hurriedly said, "I was just about to report this to Your Majesty. Thanks to the Empress Dowager's care, my mother has not left the palace in the past two days and has been kept in Yong'an Palace by the Empress Dowager.

The two gentlemen seem to get along very well.”

After saying this, he glanced at Zhao Xin, as if he was worried that he would be unhappy.

Zhao Xin doesn’t care.

Hearing this, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, and he was secretly curious in his heart, "Those two old ladies can actually talk to each other. Isn't my mother-in-law not able to speak?"

Of course he wouldn't say such a thing.

And this is a good thing. Although the two old ladies must have their own little plans besides getting rid of each other's loneliness, he would not care about such little plans.

Even when he asked Cui Yuyan to accompany Zhao Cui back to Yong'an Palace, he had this idea in mind.

He smiled faintly and nodded, saying, "The Queen Mother is thoughtful. You should go out more often. The old lady has been doing this for you for sixteen years, and it hasn't been easy. Now is the time to spend more time with her and the Queen Mother. It will be considered as fulfilling your filial duty on my behalf."

"Um."

Lin Yuyan's eyes reddened slightly when she heard this, and she nodded in agreement. Then, perhaps realizing that a simple "hmm" wasn't appropriate, she hurriedly tried to respond, but Zhao Xin waved his hand and said, "Eat, eat. We're a family, so let's not be so particular about this during the meal. Otherwise, we'll be exhausted."

"Um."

Lin Yuyan nodded again, a smile on her lips, and her mood inexplicably improved a lot.

I felt that the emperor's dinner table seemed much more casual than before at the Prime Minister's Residence, and it was also quite warm.

On the other side, Zhao Xin saw some envy in Su Qingyu's eyes after he finished speaking, so he said: "Qingyu, if you are envious, send someone to bring Madam Yiguo in to stay for a few days tomorrow."

Lady Yiguo was the title of Su Qingyu's mother.

Su Qingyu was quite moved by what she heard, but she was a little hesitant. "This is not appropriate. It's against the rules."

Zhao Xin couldn't help but find it funny to see that she looked so moved but tried so hard to remain dignified and reserved.
