She looked at the pleading gentle young man, raised her eyebrows, and her beautiful eyes were full of interest.
As the mistress of the harem, she was in charge of household affairs. All matters, big and small, had to go through her hands. Exchanging them for meat was not a big deal.
Originally, she didn't need to worry about it and could just tell the palace servants to do it, but when faced with the talents she valued, she became interested.
Xiao He trusted this kind and generous queen very much, and told her the truth without hiding anything.
"To be honest, Your Majesty, Han Xin and I are as close as brothers. He has been studying martial arts lately and needs meat to nourish himself."
"But meat is precious, and Brother Han is short of money. As your elder brother, I want to help you."
"Han Xin?"
Hearing this, Chu Yuening's eyes flickered and her interest grew stronger.
A few days ago, she heard A Zheng mention the bet, and she felt very emotional at that time.
Born into poverty, both parents died, gifted and indomitable, this is definitely the script for a male protagonist who makes a comeback.
However, Han Xin deserves to be called the Military Genius by later generations. He possesses courage and willpower that ordinary people can hardly achieve.
How many people are willing to give up the power in front of them and pursue an unknown opportunity?
Chu Yuening admired Han Xin's talent and courage very much, and now she readily agreed to Xiao He's request.
"In that case, I agree."
"Thank you, my lady!"
"By the way, I wonder if this money is enough to buy meat?"
Xiao He expressed his sincere gratitude, then took out a purse from his sleeve, poured out the money inside, and presented it with both hands.
The meats from the Shangshi Bureau are exclusively supplied to the royal family and are of top quality, which cannot be measured by price at all.
The queen was kind-hearted, but he could not take it for granted, so he could only use all his money to make up for it.
Chu Yuening glanced at the gold cakes and copper coins in the young man's hand, shook her head, and opened her red lips slightly.
"No need."
"Han Tanhua is a pillar of society. I admire him very much. A little bit of meat is not worth mentioning."
The soft and gentle female voice was like a warm spring breeze, yet it contained an irresistible majesty.
So Xiao He had no choice but to put away the money and thank him again.
"On behalf of my brother Han, I would like to thank the Queen!"
When Xiao He was leaving, he happened to meet Ying Zhao who had returned with his sister.
The little boy's face was rosy, and he was obviously having a lot of fun. When he saw the teacher, he ran over to say hello in surprise.
"Teacher Xiao! Are you here to see Zhao Zhao?"
"Well, Zhao Zhao should go to class."
Xiao He squatted down and looked into the little man's clear big eyes, with a smile on his face and a gentle tone.
Which teacher doesn’t like a student who is talented, well-behaved and sensible?
Ying Zhao nodded obediently, then looked at his sister in the stroller and couldn't help showing off happily.
"Teacher, this is Zhao Zhao's sister. Isn't she cute?"
Xiao He turned his gaze to the little princess, his expression was stunned for a moment, but soon returned to normal. He praised her softly.
"The princess is indeed lovely and beautiful."
"Hehe, that's not true. Zhao Zhao's sister is the cutest sister in the world~"
"Aiya!"
As if knowing that he was being praised, the little one in the stroller happily agreed.
Chu Yuening watched this scene and couldn't help laughing. Why did Zizi always show off his sister to everyone he met?
Seeing that it was getting late, she waved to the chattering little ball and urged him softly.
"Zhao Zhao, come and change your clothes, class is about to start."
"Okay, mother, Zhao Zhao is here~"
Hearing his mother's call, Ying Zhao immediately left his teacher and ran over happily.
Xiao He smiled helplessly, took his leave from the Queen again, then got up and left to prepare for his lecture.
Chu Yuening handed the sleeping Juer to her aunt, caught the baby who rushed over, and rubbed it against the chubby cheek, making the little guy giggle.
After playing for a while, she rubbed the baby's head and brought up business.
"Didn't Zhao Zhao want a martial arts master? How about I find one for you tomorrow?"
"Okay! But Zhao Zhao has to make his own decision."
Ying Zhao rolled his bright black eyes and replied seriously, his little face stiffening like a little adult.
This clever little expression made Chu Yuening very fond of him. She touched his nose lovingly and agreed with a chuckle.
"Okay, okay, everything will be up to us, Zhao Zhao."
Then there was another burst of laughter.
When little Yingluan saw that her mother and brother didn't want to play with her, she started to protest by babbling and waving her little hands and feet.
Noticing that the stroller kept shaking, Chu Yuening smiled helplessly, asked the palace maid to take the baby to change clothes, and she picked up the lively baby.
She lowered her eyes and gazed at the quiet and well-behaved little face, stroked it with her slender fingers, her eyes filled with ripples, peaceful and gentle.
"You're just a little kid, and you're already jealous."
"Hmm...but it's not surprising. Your father is a big jealous person, and you are a little jealous person."
"Eh?"
"What is Yue Ning saying to the child?"
Ying Zheng strode in from outside the hall. When he heard the woman's angry laughter and the child's babbling, his brows relaxed unconsciously.
Chu Yuening looked up in surprise, and when the familiar tall figure came into view, she smiled brightly, her voice soft and tender, with subconscious dependence.
"A Zheng, you're here."
"Well, did Luan'er bother you just now?"
Looking at his wife with a smile as beautiful as a flower, Ying Zheng's hard heart instantly turned soft and he quickened his pace.
Coming to the sofa, Ying Zheng stared at his daughter who was grinning at him. He hesitated for a moment, but finally handed her over to her aunt mercilessly.
He held the woman's slender waist tightly, holding her in his arms domineeringly, burying his nose in her hair. The faint fragrance calmed his mind.
Well, this is his little wife, he can't give her up even if she is his daughter.
Chu Yuening was imprisoned tightly and felt helpless. She felt that he was like a clingy large cat, and she was catnip.
"Luan'er didn't make trouble for me. I just felt that she really looks like you, A Zheng."
"I am her father, so naturally she looks like me."
Ying Zheng replied lazily, feeling the warmth and softness in his arms, his phoenix eyes narrowed contentedly, and his tense heartstrings gradually relaxed.
These days, he not only has to deal with government affairs, but is also busy arranging official positions for the new scholars, leaving him with very little time to spend with his wife and children.
I have some rare free time today, so I must spend some time with my little wife.
Chu Yuening knew that the man was tired, so she didn't disturb him. She just turned around and hugged him, took off his crown, untied his hair bun, and gently combed his black hair with her fingers.
His face suddenly fell into a softness, and Ying Zheng rubbed it comfortably. His thick black eyelashes drooped quietly, and a trace of attachment unconsciously revealed between his brows.
After a long time, Ying Zheng raised his head, his eyes bright and lively. He held the woman's tender little face, rubbed her ears, and kissed her with his thin lips, which were hot and lingering.
"Okay, A Zheng, stop messing around. I have something serious to tell you."
Noticing the increasingly heavy breathing, Chu Yuening reached out to cover the man's lips and said coquettishly, with a faint blush on her cheeks.
A trace of regret flashed across Ying Zheng's eyes. He held the woman's fair wrist and kissed her palm. His magnetic voice had a touch of sexy laziness.
"Hmm? What's up?"
"I think Han Tanhua has good talent. How about letting him try to be Zhao Zhao's martial arts master?"
