......

The palace, the queen's bedroom.

"Your Majesty, the young master of the Zhao Mansion brought you the most delicious pancakes and the freshest duck blood vermicelli soup in the capital."

The queen's personal maid, Yu'er, came to Queen Ma's bedside and reminded her.

"Ahem, isn't he in Fengyang? Why did he return to the capital?"

"Isn't this here to die?"

Empress Ma frowned, feeling helpless about Zhao Zheng's return to Beijing.

The reason why she didn't go out to escape the summer heat with Emperor Zhu Chongba was because of a disagreement about Hu Yong.

Facing the emperor Zhu Chongba, he was tired of the falling butcher's knife and had a big fight.

Even, something went wrong with his body, and he has been recuperating in recent days.

"Yu'er, do you know what's going on?"

Empress Ma unavoidably looked suspiciously at Yu'er, the maid beside her, but then, she herself apologized, knowing that she had wronged Yu'er.

"Zhao Shaofu returned to Beijing for a legitimate reason to take grain seeds."

"But from Yu'er's point of view, Shaofu Zhao must have sensed something is wrong. After all, Shaofu Zhao is a smart man."

"In addition, Erhu wrote back, saying that Zhao Shaofu discovered that there were palace people in Fengyang, and they were replaced by Fengyang's labor."

"Because of this, His Majesty was furious, and wrote back asking Mao Xiang to take command and strengthen the guard in the palace."

Yu'er helped Queen Ma up, and then said.

"It's no wonder you've been keeping close to each other lately. Does the emperor have a message for me?"

Empress Ma shook her head and asked Yu'er back.

"Your Majesty must be thinking about you, Madam."

Facing Queen Ma's question, Yu'er didn't know how to answer, so she lowered her head and said weakly.

"Then there is no more..."

Empress Ma listened to Yu'er's love, shook her head again, and looked outside the palace, where Zhu Chongba was escaping the summer heat.

Yu'er could only stand aside and keep her head down.

What Queen Ma was thinking, she couldn't guess carefully.

But at this moment, what she was thinking was that the letters between her and Erhu had now become a tool for temper tantrums between the emperor and the empress.

When will this day pass.

It's a dilemma.

......

"Young Master Zhao really knows how to find something to eat. You must know that the first time I asked Yu'er to go out to buy these two things, she made a mistake."

"It's good that the lady likes it."

Zhao Zheng stood aside and quickly added another spoonful of vermicelli soup for Queen Ma.

Yu'er, who was beside Empress Ma, laughed out of the fine lines at the corners of her eyes.

There is no way, seeing that Empress Ma finally ate something, she was happy.

Because in recent days, as the atmosphere over the capital has become more solemn, Empress Ma's health has also deteriorated, and she eats less and less.

As a personal maid, she can't do anything about it.

They almost wanted to tell the emperor to return to Beijing immediately in the letter with Erhu.

Fortunately, Zhao Zheng is here.

There is no need for her to commit the taboo of treason.

......

"I'm already full, Shaofu Zhao doesn't need to add more."

"Recently, His Majesty is not in Beijing, and Shaofu Zhao still has some important matters to do, so let's go back to Fengyang as soon as possible."

Finished meal.

Queen Ma also had something to say, and reminded Zhao Zheng.

There are still many good people in this world.

But it is impossible for Zhao Zheng to leave.

"I love you dearly."

"Weichen returned to Beijing to get grain seeds, and the matter of grain seeds will be done soon."

"It is only necessary to select the qualified pollen aborted or sterile plants from the rice ears left in the past, and then remove the ears intact..."

"Stop! Shaofu Zhao!"

After hearing half of it, Empress Ma only felt dizzy.

She doesn't understand professional things.

But Zhao Zheng didn't want to leave, she already fully understood.

So simply, she also had a direct showdown with Zhao Zheng.

"Zhao Shaofu, this palace has already known about the transfer of this palace's people to Fengyang labor labor."

"Commander Yu'er and Mao Xiang are by your side every day."

"I haven't thanked you yet."

The implication is to let Zhao Zheng leave the capital as soon as possible, and he doesn't need to worry about the rest.

"This is what the minister should do."

"However, I haven't reported to the Ministry of Secretary-General yet when I returned to Beijing."

"Weichen reports and leaves!"

"My lady, please rest assured!"

But Zhao Zheng looked at Queen Ma, his attitude was still firm.

At this time, in the corner, Mao Xiang, the commander of the Virtue Jinyi Guard, stood out from the shadows at the right time, and also looked at Queen Ma, holding a rope in his hand.

As soon as Queen Ma ordered, he kidnapped Zhao Zheng.

but......

Zhao Zheng's determination finally moved Queen Ma.

"Commander Mao."

"The end is here!"

"Give Shaofu Zhao a gift!"

"The last will obey!"

Empress Ma shook her head, Mao Xiang withdrew the rope, and beckoned with his backhand, beckoning Zhao Zheng to follow.

"Thank you, Empress!"

Zhao Zheng smiled.

Now he has a legitimate reason to stay in the capital.

......

After Zhao Zheng left, Yu'er helped Queen Ma back to the couch.

"Empress, if you do this, His Majesty should be angry again."

As Queen Ma's personal maid, Yu'er, apart from her husband Er Hu, is only concerned about Queen Ma on weekdays.

So at this time, she felt very incomprehensible that Queen Ma was standing for Zhao Zheng.

"Yu'er, don't persuade me about this."

"This is what I, as a queen, should do."

"Your Majesty's killing intent is too great. I can't just look at him like this and discard all the heroes as pawns, making everyone feel insecure."

"Don't say it, and don't add this sentence in the letter to Erhu."

After Empress Ma finished speaking, she looked at the direction where Emperor Zhu Chongba was traveling to escape the summer heat.

With tears in the corners of his eyes, he said in his heart:

Heavy eight, I know you too well.

If you let your plan go ahead, Hu Yong's family must not be the only ones who will be liquidated.

Those brothers from the past will definitely be implicated by you.

At that time, you will be hated by the Huaixi people and by the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty.

You, the emperor, will become a complete loner.

If in the future, if I am not in good health, I will leave first, who else can you talk to.

......

"Young lady! Zhao Shaofu specially asked the last general to bring a team of entertainers to make you happy!"

"According to Zhao Shaofu, this team of performers will have a new trick called cross talk, which is an alternative form of storytelling, guaranteed to make you happy!"

After Mao Xiang finished speaking, he winked at the "entertainers" dressed as street storytellers behind him, and asked them to come in and start performing.

"New tricks? Cough cough, then I have to take a good look at it!"

Empress Ma naturally understood that this was Zhao Zheng's concern for him.

In my heart, I promised Zhao Zheng to jump into the kang, and I felt a little bit of self-blame again.

But as the cross talk started, she laughed, and Yu'er laughed too.

Even Mao Xiang couldn't help laughing.

The cross talk is really funny.

It relieved the boredom of everyone in the bedroom.

This is also the best way Zhao Zheng could think of to relieve Empress Ma's heart disease without knowing medical skills.

As for the buskers who starred in cross talk?

Maybe in this world, the performance form of cross talk appeared before the Eight Emperor Banners entered the customs?

Anyway, Zhao Zheng didn't say anything, and Mao Xiang cooperated.

Then they are a group of local storytellers.

......

On the other side, Zhao Zheng knocked on the door of Zhongshu Province's government office while laughter filled the bedroom.

"Which brother came to beg for wine again? We just sat at the celebration banquet that Big Brother Hu prepared for us. Did you come here just by smelling it?"

"Hahaha!"

Zhao Zheng hadn't entered yet, smelling the smell of wine and listening to the unrestrained laughter, he knew what was going on inside.

No wonder the restaurants in the capital were so quiet on the day of the triumphant return of the army conquering the North.

He thought that those honorable warriors had changed their temper.

It turned out that it was Hu Yong, the prime minister, who replaced the emperor to celebrate their achievements in Zhongshu Province.

It's time for him to break in, and eat for free!
