Chapter 105: Crazy criticism of the prince’s “personal” bodyguard 31
There was a banquet in the palace.
This banquet was held to commemorate the victory of the generals who had returned from the war for several months. Many of those who participated in the war were from aristocratic families, and a few of them had climbed up from the ranks.
Among them, Zhao Xuan is the most typical and successful example.
As Zhao Xuan, who has attracted the attention of thousands of people, His Majesty specifically called out his name and even asked him on the spot if he was married. Several princesses on the princess chair lowered their eyes shyly at the same time, and the meaning was self-evident.
If your Majesty wants to reuse Zhao Xuan, you must make him Princess Shang, because only by marrying his daughter to Zhao Xuan and inserting some spies can your Majesty feel at ease.
Otherwise, there is only one way, either not to give Zhao Xuan the opportunity to go to the battlefield to establish his authority, and make him a marquis without any influence, or to kill the donkey, which is too obvious.
Your Majesty still needs Zhao Xuan to be alive. Dongli Kingdom is at peace for the time being, but no one knows when they will be ready to make another move.
The first lesson he learned this time was that even if he wanted to take over power, he should not kill too harshly and leave no one behind. This would also be a great danger to the Western Chu Kingdom.
Some of the courtiers guessed His Majesty's intention, while others did not know it and envied Zhao Xuan for his endless glory.
Zhao Xuan thought for a while and declined with a smile, saying that he was too passionate and had told his fortune in his early years that he would not marry a wife. He did not intend to harm anyone and had already planned to grow old alone.
His Majesty was surprised and a little angry in his heart, but he also understood that Zhao Xuan's words were also a great loss to himself.
Zhao Xuan didn't want to marry Princess Shang, so he said such words and refused in front of the civil and military officials. From then on, even if there were other civil and military officials in their families who wanted to marry Zhao Xuan, they would have to think again.
One rejected His Majesty and had this excuse. If Zhao Xuan really wanted to marry, even if the daughter of an ordinary family married, it would be the crime of deceiving the emperor.
Who dares to do such a thing for Zhao Xuan?Wouldn't that bury the entire family in a pit?
In short, Zhao Xuan's move immediately transformed him from a hot upstart into a dilemma. Except for a few civil and military officials, no one dared to chat with him.
Everyone knows that His Majesty on the high platform cannot tolerate sand. The first thing he did when he succeeded to the throne was to remove all the military generals who had served him one by one.
Even if they are not killed one by one, the truly capable people will never be allowed to hold the weapon talismans.
Now Zhao Xuan dares to reject His Majesty in front of so many people. Even if His Majesty is angry because of his lack of face, Zhao Xuan does not have to think about the marriage until His Majesty abdicates.
Zhou Jinan was sitting on the seat and saw a young man who had changed into a crimson official uniform from a distance, with a lively expression on his face, and had mixed feelings in his heart.
He wanted to speak for Zhao Xuan, but all the civil and military officials were there, and Zhao Xuan had already refuted His Majesty's face. Anything he said now would only add fuel to the fire. Interceding for Zhao Xuan on his own would only do bad things.
If he comes forward rashly, I'm afraid it will arouse His Majesty's jealousy. He comes from the General's Mansion, and if Zhao Xuan befriends him again, His Majesty will be aroused to the extreme even if his murderous intention is not that serious.
His Majesty looked at Zhao Xuan for a moment, and the smile disappeared. After a moment, the deep smile that seemed to be a smile but not a smile appeared again.
"That's all, since I don't want you to do it, I won't force you to do anything."
A hammer is fixed.
This not only means that His Majesty will not grant any more marriages, but also means that if His Majesty is not dead, Zhao Xuan will definitely not be able to marry a wife, because... how can he marry a widow if he is alone?
Zhou Jinan sighed inwardly. When in a situation, there are always all kinds of last resorts.
He had a gentlemanly appreciation for Zhao Xuan, and he also knew that the situation was turbulent and that getting too close would easily lead to overthinking by all parties, so Zhou Jinan never got too close to Zhao Xuan from the beginning to the end.
Therefore, while he lowered his eyes and drank, sighing in his heart, he did not notice Zhao Xuan's disapproval when he thanked him.
Of the words that came out of his mouth, eight out of ten were false, and the remaining two were true, depending on who the target was.
Besides, he...had never thought about getting a wife.
If you really want to marry, you must marry a husband.
He Lanxi, who seemed indifferent, quickly put away the three silver needles hidden between his fingers under his robe when Zhao Xuan sat down again.
He Lanxi took advantage of the break of drinking to glance at the emperor on the stage, and then looked at the elegant young man in official uniform below the stage. His face was calm, but there was a trace of emotion in his eyes covered by his lowered eyelashes. Light relaxation.
The tense body is no longer like a sword that can be unsheathed at any time, hiding silent murderous intent.
*
After the palace banquet was over, Zhao Xuan looked a little drunk, his face was slightly red, and he needed the help of the little eunuch beside him to even walk.
Today's Zhao Xuan is different from the past. In the past, he was just a guard beside He Lanxi. Now he has been named General Feiyun and has his own mansion.
Logically speaking, if he is really too drunk, Zhao Xuan can stay in the palace since he has no confidants and no special guards to escort him home.
There is a rest area in the palace specially set up for hungover officials, but this place is usually far away from His Majesty, the East Palace, and the Harem, in order to prevent some unscrupulous people from taking the opportunity to sneak in and assassinate.
The young eunuch now seems to be planning to help Zhao Xuan to rest in a rest area specially set up for officials. The other officials have their families and entourages following them and do not need to stay in the palace.
Zhou Jinan noticed that the direction in which the young eunuch helped Zhao Xuan leave seemed a little wrong. As a cousin of the third prince, he usually visited the palace frequently and knew the palace fairly well.
that direction...
It's a bit like the harem, where the concubines live.
Realizing this, Zhou Jinan's first reaction was to find Zhao Xuan, but with such a delay, when he followed him, he had long disappeared!
Zhou Jinan's eyes changed. He looked at the brightly lit corridors with many palace people coming and going, but he couldn't tell which direction Zhao Xuan was taken?
In desperation, Zhou Jinan could only choose one of several directions and rely on luck to catch up.

At the same time, Zhao Xuan seemed to be walking in a daze. His steps were frivolous, and he looked too obviously drunk. He asked the young eunuch several times, why he hasn't arrived yet?
The little eunuch comforted Zhao Xuan all the way, saying that he was almost there, he was almost there.
But the next second, Zhao Xuan aimed at a rockery, and while bringing the young eunuch in, he kicked him backwards, pinched his elbow, and twisted him directly behind his back.
As for the person, he was facing the rockery wall. As for the person, he quickly tapped his numb and mute points.
The little eunuch who was tricked by Zhao Xuan before he could take action said, "???"
"Tsk, how come there are always people in this world who want me to die?" Zhao Xuan spoke leisurely and casually, with a bit of disapproval.
