Zhou Qiongyue was truly impressed by her second cousin, who never came to her palace empty-handed. "I was just saying that my right eye kept twitching when I woke up this morning! So you were waiting for me here!"
When the emperor is shameless, he is truly shameless. "Fu'an is not here, and you don't give me your good wine to drink. If you keep it, it will just take up space in your wine cellar for nothing."
Zhou Qiongyue felt that if she didn't send this cousin away, she would be angry to death. It turned out that she had to be grateful to him.
Zhou Qiongyue immediately shouted loudly outside, "Gu Le, go to the wine cellar and bring five jars of the best wine. Let this cousin of the princess take it away."
The emperor also lowered his status and shouted outside, "Ten altars."
Zhou Qiongyue did not refute anymore. As long as she could get rid of this god, it would be fine.
As soon as Gu Le and his men brought the wine up, the emperor immediately ordered Si Wu and Hou Gonggong beside him to move the wine. The emperor then walked out with his hands behind his back.
The emperor took a few steps and turned back to say, "My mother is quite bored in the palace. When you are free, please send a letter to the palace to have a look."
"Your Majesty, I obey your command. I respectfully send you off!" Zhou Qiongyue was extremely happy to go to the palace to see her aunt. As for her cousin, he should leave quickly!
The emperor looked at his cousin's expression and said, "I just took a few jars of wine from you! Look at you being so stingy."
After the emperor said this, he was afraid that his cousin would really commit regicide, so he could only stride out.
Zhou Qiongyue... Forget it, the wine has been given, so these two sentences are not a big deal. She will wait until she goes to the palace to see her aunt in two days and then settle the score with this cousin.
When the emperor walked outside the study, he saw Yuan Chaokang sitting obediently on the steps outside, reading an unknown book.
The emperor took out a jade pendant from his waist and placed it on Yuan Chao Kant's book. "Take it and play with it! The future little dandy."
Yuan Chaokang was a connoisseur of value. He quickly put the jade pendant into his arms, which made people feel much closer. "Thank you, uncle!"
The emperor left with a smile. He was very fond of Yuan Chaokang's cleverness. He had originally thought that he would wait for his friend to come back and talk to him about the training of this boy. It seemed that this issue could not be delayed.
Otherwise, it would be a shame if this little guy really became spoiled and became a playboy. The emperor decided that because Yuan Chaokang called him "uncle", he would help him write a letter to his friend when he returned.
When Yuan Bohua received the seal from the emperor at the front line, he thought something big was happening, but it turned out to be a discussion about whether Yuan Chaokang should be a playboy.
Yuan Bohua... He didn't know what the word "friend" meant. Yuan Bohua pondered for a long time and finally replied with one sentence, "Just follow Yuan Chaokang's wishes."
When the emperor received the reply from his friend in his busy schedule, he cursed his friend and his cousin couple for being unreliable in the imperial study in front of Eunuch Marquis.
During this period, because of the war between the two countries, Xie Zixin was in a good mood every day.
That day, the emperor brought some good wine, and Xie Zixin was even happier.
Xie Zixin felt that the emperor treated her so well because her prediction had come true. The emperor knew her importance and was trying to please her. She then gave the emperor a way out.
She must let the emperor know that she is his best choice.
After all, the emperor is the emperor, and he can still notice some changes in Xie Zixin's attitude.
All I can say is that it’s the same for both men and women. As long as they don’t love each other, they can recognize anything.
This is also the reason why the emperor wanted to take this step. He had to find out Xie Zixin's trump card without her noticing.
All I can say is that from their initial love to this point, even the emperor would sigh that things have changed.
As soon as the emperor entered Xie Zixin's palace, he stepped forward and took Xie Zixin's hand, "Xin'er, I got a few jars of good wine a few days ago, and I want to drink with you. Do you want to have a few drinks with me?"
Xie Zixin put down the scissors she was using to trim the flowers and said, "Okay, I'll do as your Majesty says. But your Majesty, this fine wine of yours was sent as tribute by Princess Fu'an, right? You're such a flatterer."
The emperor looked outside the palace awkwardly, feeling that Concubine Zhen was scolding him. "Xin'er, you don't have any deep hatred with your cousin, so why do you always pick on her?"
"How does the emperor know that there is no hatred between us? Maybe we have a grudge against each other for stealing my husband." Now Xie Zixin was confident and dared to say anything.
No man could tolerate such an insult. The emperor's expression was visibly angry. "Do you like Fu'an?"
Seeing the emperor angry, Xie Zixin was actually quite happy. After all, liking someone makes one possessive. "Who would like Yuan Bohua, who has no taste? Is it possible that Zhou Qiongyue likes you, Your Majesty?"
Xie Zixin was still resentful that Yuan Bohua didn't believe her at the time.
This wasn't the first time Xie Zixin had said such crazy things, and the emperor didn't take it seriously. But it was also true that the emperor felt relieved.
He was now thinking about how he had made things clear with his cousin, and it was Xie Zixin who always casually whispered in his ear that his cousin liked him or something.
It turned out that my cousin had no such intention at all. Now when I think about her reaction at that time, I guess she thought he was sick!
After so many years of getting along, the emperor has already figured out how to get along with Xie Zixin. "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Do you want to drink this good wine? If not, I'll go find the queen."
"Have a drink. Zhou Qiongyue's wine will probably taste different." Xie Zixin said as she sat down at the table and started pouring wine.
He also stuffed a cup into the emperor's hand. While they were talking, the table full of delicious dishes had already been laid out.
The emperor thought about the purpose of today and sat down. "Come, let us celebrate the great victory of this war in advance."
As the emperor spoke, he raised his glass and clinked it with Xie Zixin.
Xie Zixin also cooperated with the emperor, "Okay, let's celebrate the border victory in advance."
The two drank the glass of wine with their own thoughts, and then Xie Zixin fell on the table. The reason why Xie Zixin fell so quickly was not because of Zhou Qiongyue's wine, but because the emperor had put a drug in the wine that could make people sleepy.
This was because the emperor had helped her up in advance, otherwise Xie Zixin would have fallen on the table and would have definitely been injured.
As soon as Xie Zixin fell, the emperor immediately carried her out of the palace and got on the emperor's dragon sedan chair at the palace gate.
The emperor and his entourage traveled quickly all the way and arrived directly at Kunyun Palace where the empress dowager had lived before.
When Empress Duan Jianing was choosing a palace for her coronation, she took the initiative to choose Qiyun Palace as her residence. This was also to avoid disrupting the layout of Kunyun Palace, after all, it was where the emperor grew up.
As for where to live, Duan Jianing felt that as long as the emperor gave her the respect of the queen, even if she lived in the cold palace, the people in the harem would not dare to be presumptuous.
Now the emperor has carried the fainted Xie Zixin in, and it is obvious that a big show is going to take place.
