Chapter 47
"As for you, the Western Rong envoys, I have been patient for a long time. I originally thought that if you behaved yourself, it would be fine for me to keep you, but today I don't want to tolerate it anymore! Tang Mitang, give Angus a poison and imprison him!" Zhou Xuanqing said frankly, and the last sentence sounded like it should have been done this way.
Master Liao Wu turned and left. Today's lecture had been in vain. The Emperor hadn't heard a single word.
Tang Mitang nodded, took out a pill and handed it to Angus.
"Your Majesty, are you going to completely break off relations with Xirong?" Angus asked in disbelief, looking at the medicine in front of him.
"Didn't you tear it? I don't want to kill anyone in the Buddhist holy land." Zhou Xuanqing said, took a step forward, grabbed Angus's collar, forced him to bend down, and said something in his ear.
Angus's expression changed drastically. He stuffed the medicine in his hand into his mouth, holding his neck and swallowing it.
Zhou Xuanqing loosened his collar, and Chang Xi immediately took a handkerchief from the ground and asked her to wipe her hands.
After wiping it, Zhou Xuanqing threw it to Chang Xi, then left with the onlookers.
Xuanyi grabbed Angus's collar and took him away.
Angus was a little apprehensive. He had always known that Zhou Xuanqing didn't like to play by the rules, but how could he be so unconventional? It was even impossible to guard against!
He didn't know what had happened to his father. He had to quickly write a letter, telling his father not to get involved in the affairs of Cheng Zhixuan and the Great Zhou anymore! With Zhou Xuanqing around, there was no way they could win!
Tang Mitang followed Zhou Xuanqing, thinking about Zhou Xuanqing's arrogant look just now, and looked at her sideways.
I looked around but couldn't see anything.
She just felt that Zhou Xuanqing had changed and was different from the beginning.
Or maybe I'm just beginning to understand her now...
Time passed by little by little. The prince was bedridden for half a month, and Zhou Xuanqing was busy managing the country over and over again. But he seemed to be more relaxed these days, and he could even drink tea with the concubine when he had nothing to do.
Tang Mitang stayed in the pharmacy and kept making medicine to replace the poppy medicine. Although no one knew where the medicine she made went, Zhou Xuanqing dispatched six shadow guards to help prepare it, which must be because something urgent had happened.
After Tang Mitang finished her work, she rubbed her wrists and walked out of the pharmacy slowly. She went to Daming Palace to find Zhou Xuanqing and looked at the sunset in the distance. Tang Mitang couldn't help but smack her lips. She really wanted to eat sweet and sour pork ribs tonight.
As soon as he walked over, he saw Zhou Xuanqing's back as he left. He grabbed a palace maid and asked her, only to find out that the concubine was holding another banquet and asked the emperor to come and dine with her.
"Don't worry, Miss Tang. The emperor has instructed that you can just have your meal in the palace~" the little palace maid said with a smile, leading her to the dining table to eat.
Tang Mitang scratched her hair in confusion, a little puzzled. Are the relationship between the Concubine Dowager and the Emperor so good?
This question only bothered her for a few seconds, and when she saw the table full of food, she forgot everything.
On the other side, Zhou Xuanqing came to Changle Palace and saw all the ladies from official families. He nodded with satisfaction.
"Your Highness~"
As expected of a room full of women, this greeting woke up even the eunuch Chang Xi.
"Greetings, Your Majesty~" A male voice interrupted. Zhou Xuanqing looked at his only lover, Li Jue, and smiled as he asked them to get up.
Sit in the first seat.
"Madam Queen, where is Yu'er?" Zhou Xuanqing found that the protagonist was not there, and asked in confusion.
"Yu'er went to get the wine. He's been keeping it for a long time. I heard you were here and wanted to give it to you to try."
The concubine said this while happily entertaining these young ladies from official families.
Zhou Xuanqing was also relieved. The Concubine Dowager had planned to choose a wife for Zhou Qiuyu a few days ago to help him control his temper. It just so happened that she also wanted to see which young ladies were good and save some for Lan'er.
"Greetings, Imperial Sister. Come and try the fine wine in my collection!" Zhou Qiuyu sat down next to Zhou Xuanqing in a familiar manner, and then opened the wine seal and poured it for Zhou Xuanqing.
The concubine pursed her lips in frustration. "What a silly boy! There are so many girls but he doesn't even know how to look at them! He's still drinking! If he doesn't behave well, the whole capital will know about it tomorrow!"
But because Zhou Xuanqing was sitting in the middle, she couldn't reach out to deal with him. The concubine could only smile and call softly: "Yu'er~"
"You want some too, mother? I'll pour it for you!" Zhou Qiyu was clearly playing dumb, not wanting to understand the Dowager's intentions. He silently poured her more wine and said with a smile, "Quickly try it, sister. It tastes really good~"
Anyway, he didn't want to get engaged so early. His elder brother hadn't decided yet, so why was it his turn?
Zhou Xuanqing picked up the wine glass and took a sip. The wine was rich and fragrant. "Good wine."
"Drink more good wine. I still have two bottles. When my royal brother recovers from his illness, I'll take him to drink together." Zhou Qiuyu has become bolder these days. When he sees Zhou Xuanqing, he is not as scared as before and dares not approach him. He can even answer questions fluently. Of course, he is still not very good at answering questions about homework.
In the temple before, Zhou Xuanqing was very gentle to him. He suddenly realized that in fact, in the eyes of the royal sister, he and his brother were the same. Then he had nothing to fear.
Zhou Xuanqing listened carefully to the conversation between the imperial concubine and the official's daughter. After listening for a long time, he still couldn't figure out what was going on, and finally left drunk.
"Your Majesty, let me help you go back~" Li Jue followed and walked to Zhou Xuanqing, holding her other arm.
A delicate fragrance spread out, and Zhou Xuanqing subconsciously searched for its source. It was very similar to the scent of his mother when he was a child. He leaned against Li Jue, letting him hold him, his hand still clutching his belt.
Chang Xi originally wanted to wave him away, but when he saw Zhou Xuanqing leaning over and looking a little confused, he pursed his lips, thought for a moment, and then took a step back.
The emperor will be twenty years old in two months, and his emotions are still not fully developed. Yet he is still thinking about finding a marriage for the prince every day. Looking at the confused look on his face tonight, I know that he doesn't understand anything.
It would be better to let her try. Although Li Jue is not good, he is also a pretty good one. I looked down on him before because he insisted on entering the palace and did nothing, but when I think about it, this is also a deep love.
Chang Xi thought about it and did not move, allowing Li Jue to help Zhou Xuanqing to the bedroom.
When Tang Mitang saw Zhou Xuanqing coming back drunk, she hurried over to take a look and saw the lover helping her in and wanted to follow.
"Hey~ Tangmi, don't join in the fun~ A night of spring is worth a thousand gold, let's talk about it tomorrow~" Chang Xi stopped her in a mean way, opened his arms, and used his increasingly fat body to block Tangmi Tang tightly.
"Chang Xi! What do you mean by a spring night? Did the emperor agree?" Tang Mitang felt sour in her heart when she heard this, especially when it was applied to Zhou Xuanqing, she felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
Chang Xi looked him up and down and said slyly, "You are still young and don't understand. I will make some arrangements for you in a couple of days~"
"Arrange for your sister! I have to go in and take a look!" Tang Midang said, and rushed in sideways.
She is old, what doesn't she know? But Zhou Xuanqing is still young, she can't be so careless, what if someone takes advantage of her!
I have to say a few words to Zhou Xuanqing later, I can’t be so casual!
Tang Mitang rushed in angrily, but saw Zhou Xuanqing ripping off Li Jue's belt and leading him to the bed with a smile, while Li Jue still had an innocent and confused look on his face.
This was obviously Zhou Xuanqing forcing Li Jue...
