Chapter 495 Prince Zhaosu



After the Mid-Autumn Festival comes the Double Ninth Festival.

Although it was cold, everyone was in high spirits!

General Lü Xiao has returned in triumph! So many young women and wives want to see him!

King Zheng often grappled with arsenic in his palace, while General Lü Xiao had a different style, having just conquered the Great Stone Kingdom.

However, everyone has heard that General Lü is seriously injured!

Serious injuries are nothing to worry about as long as you can get back to Sheng'an. It would be strange if you didn't get injured on the battlefield; even a great general doesn't always order others to fight.

Therefore, it's possible that Lü Wenren will be the only one walking the flower path!

Imperial decree: He is granted special permission to walk along the Imperial Street!

Sheng'an was completely ignited!

The atmosphere in the Zichen Palace was a bit strange.

Xie Zhou was incredibly obedient to his father. Besides teasing him, his father had already begun boasting about his eldest grandson's dream.

Why do we say it's a child dreaming, rather than an adult dreaming about him? Because the feeling is different.

It's like an adult being pulled into his dream. Children are full of energy and like to pull those they are close to.

Although it's just a guess, it seems to be true.

I'm very happy to be able to fulfill my grandson's dream these days.

Xie Zhou wanted to ask his father what his son had dreamed about.

There's no intention to talk about it now, since the eldest grandson is just like any other child, curiously watching the triumphant return and the grand spectacle on the Imperial Street.

So many young women and wives, thankfully they weren't there for his eldest grandson.

He now feels that this is too early, his eldest grandson is too young.

The eunuch came to report: "Miss Zeng and Miss Xinshi have made contact."

It's a bit chilly today.

Xie Zhou calmly continued working, intending to go home early to spend time with his son. Was it inappropriate for his son to bypass him and go play with his grandfather? His grandfather was getting old and needed more rest.

I don't know this now, otherwise I would beat this unfilial son!

Xie Zhou finished his work and quickly slipped away. I don't like him, and he doesn't like my son. There's nothing wrong with that.

Huan Yue sat comfortably on the throne again.

She doesn't sit all the time, but when she can sit, she's very content.

A group of people were busy tidying up the children's things.

Xie Zhou didn't need to worry about it; he just talked to his son, telling him to dream less about his grandfather in the future.

Huan Yue glanced at him, wondering if he was mentally challenged.

Xie Zhou felt wronged. His son didn't have many dreams; before, his parents divided the spoils, and now his grandfather was taking a share.

Huan Yue didn't think much of a child's dreams. He was a real child, and his dreams were sometimes chaotic and nonsensical, but they were fun.

Isn't it the same as dreaming? This feels like spying on a child.

Although adults love children, they also find the way he hugs his own feet quite endearing.

If an adult were to hold their own toes and gnaw on them...

Xie Zhou looked at his wife, wondering what she was so happy about.

Huan Yue blinked: "Tell me, how can an adult gnaw on their own feet to evoke that kind of childlike innocence?"

Xie Zhou blinked and said seriously, "At least your feet have to be that soft."

Huan Yue nodded. A big foot is fine, but without that soft and cute feel, it just won't be the same.

Just like you can drink a child's urine without a second thought, what about an adult's?

Yang Quenu and her group brought over their latest dance. Although the children can't see it, perhaps they can?

Huan Yue watched with great satisfaction.

Wenmiao came here specifically to play the zither for the children, so they wouldn't fall asleep listening to something so elegant.

Huan Yue invited his sister-in-law to sit down and have some tea.

Although Wenmiao had many things to do, she wasn't in a hurry. No matter how many things there were, she could arrange them. Besides, Guo Bing was very intelligent and capable of handling many things.

The maidservants complained to Consort Huan, "How brainless is the Zeng family? They've gotten involved with arsenic, and now they're begging the master for help? Do they know the master's influence is effective?"

Shi Qingzhu remarked from the side, "The Zeng family seems to be in such a hurry to get married, it's like the baby can't wait?"

The art style seems a bit strange?

Like the Cui family's affair?

But how audacious is it to make the King of Zheng act like a tortoise?

Ju Zhaoxun interjected, "Could it be a kid from the Great Stone Kingdom?"

Huan Yue's imagination ran wild: "Didn't they capture the prince of the Great Stone Kingdom before? So this guy has some status in the Great Stone Kingdom? He just doesn't care much about his reputation."

Wen Miao nodded: "The Great Stone Kingdom is indeed shameless."

The eunuch came to report: "The latest letter from the Kingdom of Dashi has arrived, and Prince Zhaosu will be the envoy."

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. Did the Great Stone Kingdom really need a letter of state?

Huan Yue asked, "What's the trick this time?"

The eunuch reported, "I'm not entirely sure. But Zhao Su seems to be the God of War of the Great Stone Kingdom! He's bringing ten thousand men!"

Huan Yue pondered, "They probably haven't entered the country yet, right? Let's choose a place to stay and have a proper sparring session."

Xie Zhou nodded.

Since the Great Stone Kingdom is shameless and dares to lead 10,000 elite troops with the God of War, they should be prepared to die in the Great Zhao.

If we can't conquer him in the territory of Great Zhao, how will we be able to subdue the Great Stone Kingdom in the future?

As for how to explain this to the Great Stone Kingdom, is it necessary?

So many things, the Great Stone Kingdom didn't explain to the Great Zhao Kingdom.

Huan Yue said, "The Great Zhao is quite chaotic. Anyone dares to call themselves emperor because the emperor is far away."

Wen Miao heard some new news: "It seems that a villager in Sanhe County has declared himself emperor."

The maid asked curiously, "Where are the other villagers?"

Wenmiao said, "This family usually has a good reputation. They started digging in the fields and said it was the will of Heaven that they should become emperors. They even said they were commoner emperors and continued to farm. Some people didn't care, but others took it seriously."

Huan Yue said, "That's impressive. It's like a shaman performing a ritual, pretending that it's fate and I don't want it to happen. Once the act is successful, some people will believe it."

Ren Zhaoxun said, "Like Baishi Village, it produced a phoenix, but the Chang family says no, no, is this a case of praising by first criticizing?"

Baishi Village is destined to be a true phoenix village.

That villager might not be the case.

This isn't about indulging in the fantasy of being an emperor. You have to understand what the word "emperor" represents, so this kind of fantasy shouldn't exist. It's like not messing with your own mother.

After Xie Zhou and his wife finished their meal, they went to find their father, the Emperor.

Since the Great Stone Kingdom is getting more and more aggressive each time, it would be good to teach them a lesson.

Grand Secretary Xu is in high spirits right now!

A bumper harvest is in the world! Everyone is busy harvesting; the harvest will be enough to feed us for at least two years.

It's not that we'll eat what we grow in two years, but this year's harvest is just so abundant!

For example, if a field has an average yield of three shi per mu, but only half that yield during a poor harvest, and this year it can reach six shi, wouldn't that be two years?

Six shi (a unit of dry measure) is not easily achieved; the grain is being harvested at a frantic pace.

Da Zhao, shouldn't you work harder?

If such a bountiful harvest continues for three to five years, the Great Zhao will dare to invade the Great Stone Kingdom!

King Wu walked with the stride of a dragon and the gait of a tiger!

The God of War of the Great Stone Kingdom? He'll kneel before me when he arrives in the Great Zhao!

Although the emperor couldn't comment on what the crown prince said, the Prince of Wu didn't care; he'd take the blame!

Unless the ten thousand people of the Great Stone Kingdom can ascend to heaven!

Otherwise, I'll make them go to the ground and be buried with Consort Fu!

Perhaps there are also debts owed to Father. Father's health wasn't that bad back then.

It's time for Great Zhao to collect some interest; the previous rebellion and arrests by the Great Stone Kingdom in Great Zhao didn't count.

The eunuch approached the King of Wu: "The remnants of the Yang family have made connections with the Great Stone Kingdom. However, the Immortal Changqing is practicing Taoism at the Changchun Temple, so there's no reason for it."

The King of Wu nodded.

That Yang woman had better have some brains, otherwise she'd be better off dying sooner.

His grandson's surname is Xie, and he is not affected by the Yang family in any way.
