Wei Chao looked very embarrassed. He took a step back and said, "Your Majesty, this was arranged by the Empress."
The meaning is very clear. This is the Queen's doing. Please don't blame me. This has nothing to do with me. If you want to blame someone, go find the Queen.
Zhu Youxiao glared at Wei Chao unhappily, picked up his chopsticks and started eating.
Served by Wei Chao, Zhu Youxiao drank two bowls of turtle soup.
I have to say that the turtles at this time are really good. You can tell at a glance that they are wild. And the cooking skills of the royal chef are also very good, and the cooking is very good.
After eating two bowls of rice, Zhu Youxiao stood up contentedly.
After eating and drinking, it’s a good time to go out for a walk. Anyway, I can’t go back to sleep right after eating.
Come to think of it, I felt a little sleepy after eating. I was really too tired last night and I haven't recovered yet after coming back.
"Let's go out for a walk." Zhu Youxiao looked at Wei Chao and said with a smile.
Zhu Youxiao was in a very good mood at this time, and he smiled more often.
However, after leaving the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Youxiao's mood was not so good.
Because he saw a large group of people coming towards him.
There were quite a lot of people in this group, including palace maids and eunuchs, and the scene was very grand.
In the entire Ming Dynasty palace, the only person who could put on such a pomp and ceremony, apart from Zhu Youxiao, was Empress Zhang.
Sure enough, Empress Zhang came over with a smile on her face.
After seeing Empress Zhang, Zhu Youxiao's expression became serious. He coughed lightly and said to Empress Zhang, "What are you going to do?"
"Of course I'm here to see Your Majesty," Empress Zhang said with a charming smile. "We've just finished lunch. Your Majesty, would you like to go for a walk? The flowers in the Imperial Garden are in full bloom. Would you like me to accompany Your Majesty to see them?"
"Okay." Zhu Youxiao did not refuse and nodded.
Although he knew that Empress Zhang wanted to see him for something, Zhu Youxiao had already made up his mind that this time, no matter what, he would not go to Empress Zhang's room and would sleep alone tonight.
I must be diligent in government affairs. I have just returned from Liaodong and there are so many things to do. I absolutely cannot delay.
I am such a good emperor who doesn't care about himself, doesn't care about his children's personal feelings, and works wholeheartedly for the country and the people. Women should stay away from me. They will only become a burden to me and slow down my sword-wielding speed.
Of course, Empress Zhang had no idea what Zhu Youxiao was thinking. She just smiled and accompanied Zhu Youxiao on the tour.
After walking around, the two came to the pavilion together.
Someone had already prepared fruits, snacks and tea here.
After sitting down, drinking a sip of tea and eating two fruits, Zhu Youxiao looked up at Empress Zhang and said, "Let's talk about what's going on between us."
"Your Majesty, please go to Kunning Palace to sleep tonight!" Empress Zhang said to Zhu Youxiao.
After hearing this, Zhu Youxiao frowned, his face very serious, and said seriously: "This won't work. I just came back from Liaodong, and everything is complicated. I may only be busy at night these days. After all, there are too many things to do, and I am afraid of accidents."
Empress Zhang looked at Zhu Youxiao and said with a somewhat aggrieved tone, "If Your Majesty doesn't go anywhere, people will say that I'm exploiting Your Majesty too much. What kind of reputation will I get if this gets out? I'm the current Empress, how can I have such a reputation?"
"Your Majesty, please sleep well after you arrive at Kunning Palace. I will naturally not disturb you." As she said this, Empress Zhang raised her head and looked at Zhu Youxiao with a pitiful look.
After hearing this, Zhu Youxiao felt that it made a lot of sense.
If there is nothing to do, there is no problem in sleeping there for a night. It is just a night anyway. It still shows his favor to the queen and at the same time he can have a good rest.
"I was not thoughtful enough. Let's do it this way." Zhu Youxiao nodded and said in agreement.
"Then I will wait for Your Majesty." Empress Zhang instantly changed her tears into smiles and said with a smile.
Zhu Youxiao didn't say anything and went back to work. He went to Kunning Palace early in the evening.
Since we are already planning to live there, we might as well have a meal with Empress Zhang.
After eating and strolling for a while, the couple went back to talk sweetly for a while before going to bed.
The next morning, the sky was bright.
Zhu Youxiao walked out of Empress Zhang's bedroom.
