Zhao Ji slid down from the dragon throne, foaming at the mouth and trembling all over, obviously very frightened.
What a villain is was perfectly demonstrated at this moment.
Zhang Bangchang's mind raced. He knew that if he was blamed for this, his head would be in tatters.
Zhang Bangchang then pointed at Zhao Ji and said, "Grand Emperor, His Majesty has placed such trust in you, yet you actually want to coerce the old ministers into assisting you in ascending the throne. Come! Send the Grand Emperor back to Yanfu Palace!"
Zhao Ji was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He pointed at Zhang Bangchang and said, "You, you..." and then fainted.
Several eunuchs were so frightened that they hurriedly stripped off Zhao Ji's dragon robe, helped the unconscious Zhao Ji down the hall, and walked towards Yanfu Palace.
Zhang Bangchang pointed at the guards outside the palace and shouted angrily, "Why don't you send someone to strictly guard Yeonbok Palace?"
The guards did not dare to delay and took people there.
Zhang Bangchang looked at his ministers and said awkwardly, "The Emperor is forcing me to help him ascend the throne and govern. I absolutely will not agree!"
The ministers looked at each other, thinking, this is too shameless.
…
Zhao Huan finally survived. After escaping death, he was ready to have fun again.
"Your Majesty, please have another bite." Nangong Lian'er brought the porridge.
Zhao Huan shook his head.
Li Sisi held a bowl of lotus seed soup and said, "Your Majesty, please try this."
Zhao Huan shook his head.
There was no other way, so Nangong Lian'er had to scoop a little with a spoon and blew on it at the corner of her mouth: "Big mouth, ah."
So Zhao Huan said: "Ah~!"
Li Sisi brought the cooled lotus seed soup to him and said, "Eat it yourself."
Zhao Huan shook his head like a rattle.
Li Sisi's eyebrows were raised, and she was about to explode. Seeing Zhao Huan's haggard and thin face, her heart softened again. She had no choice but to imitate Nangong Lian'er and said, "Open your mouth."
The bastard Zhao Huan opened his mouth and said, "Ah~!"
In Zhao Huan's memory, something disappointing always happened at such times.
As expected, the eunuch Bai Jinjiu, who was considered an even greater bastard in Zhao Huan's eyes, rushed in: "Your Majesty, a report from the capital."
After saying this, Bai Jinjiu looked at Zhao Huan who was being served like a child, her face turned red, and she lowered her head, not daring to look at him again.
Li Sisi and Nangong Lian'er were also a little shy, and they put down their soup bowls.
Nangong Lian'er took the letter and said, "Ah~!"
Li Sisi sighed and had to pick up the bowl again and feed him spoonful by spoonful.
Bai Jinjiu was extremely embarrassed, not knowing whether to leave or stay.
Zhao Huan glared at him and said, "Get out of here or I'll spank you."
Bai Jinjiu grinned, bowed and retreated.
Zhao Huan took the letter and read it, his face solemn. "Tell all the generals to compete with Hua Tuo."
Soon all the generals gathered in the hall. Zhao Huan pointed to the letter and said, "I just received a report from the capital that the emperor has been deposed from the throne."
The generals were shocked. Wu Ge asked, "Your Majesty, who has the audacity to release the Emperor?"
"Who else could it be? These ministers must have thought I was going to die. The prince was still young, yet they brought out the retired emperor. Stupid! Don't they think Zhao Ji has brought enough harm to the Song Dynasty?"
"Your Majesty!" The generals were so frightened that they knelt on the ground. Zhao Huan called his father by his name, which showed that things were not going well.
"Hua Tuo, let me ask you this: if I were to return to the capital now, what would I do?"
Sai Hua Tuo stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty is not yet fully recovered. I'm afraid it's not suitable for you to travel long distances."
"I am now well. I will send an order to all the troops to return tomorrow."
Seeing Zhao Huan's insistence, Sai Hua Tuo had no choice but to say, "Your Majesty, if you wish to return, it is fine. However, Your Majesty must rest in the sedan chair and must not leave the sedan chair to catch a cold."
Zhao Huan knew this. He had barely managed to save his life, and he didn't want to seek death again. So he nodded and said, "I'll take care of that. Wu Ge, Ma Qiliang, Zhao Yihu, Jiang Ziyang, you all, immediately send orders to your armies to return to the capital tomorrow!"
"As you wish!"
…
The army marched southward and finally arrived in Bian Jing after several months.
As usual, the ministers welcomed him outside the city, and he returned to the palace with loud gongs and drums and music.
Arriving at the palace, Zhao Huan felt like he was home. While the officials were waiting in the Purple Palace, Zhao Huan ran away.
Nothing is more important than his wife and children. Zhao Huan rushed to the Renming Palace. He missed the queen, and even more so his son Zhao Xin and his daughter Zhao Rouer.
"Xin'er, where is my Xin'er?" Zhao Huan called out before he even reached the outside of the hall.
Zhu Lian was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly came out with Zhao Xin in his arms: "Your Majesty."
Zhao Huan felt warm in his heart. This was the feeling of home. Who said that emperors are ruthless?
Zhu Lian hurriedly ordered the palace maid: "Go and call Tang Cairen."
Zhao Huan hugged Zhao Xin and kissed her non-stop. Only after having a child did he know how to cherish and care for her.
Tang Wan'er was feeding her daughter glutinous rice porridge. The concubines in the palace were all lonely. Especially since there were so many concubines, some of whom hadn't received the emperor's favor for months or even years. Therefore, Zhao Huan didn't dare to take more concubines, and he tried his best to treat every woman equally.
Zhao Huan even ordered the prince's biological mother to take care of her child and live with him. This was a great comfort for the concubines in this cold harem.
"Your Majesty, great news. His Majesty is back!" The palace maid from Renming Palace rushed into Luoyu Pavilion and shouted.
Tang Wan'er dropped the porcelain bowl in her hand to the ground in surprise. No one thought that this porcelain bowl was from the official kiln.
What surprised Tang Wan'er even more was that the palace maid said, "Your Majesty, please move to the Renming Hall. His Majesty is there."
Tang Wan'er immediately panicked: "Cai Die, quickly change my clothes."
The maid in Renming Palace said anxiously: "Your Majesty, it's too late. Please just go like this."
The maid Caidie hurriedly picked up the little princess, and everyone walked towards the queen's bedroom, Renming Hall.
