And Tao Zhiyan, who had been staring at her face and thinking about it all night, had two bruises in his eyes.During the court, many ministers who heard the news that the emperor rushed Zhaoxiu's daughter into the palace to serve in bed last night were hesitant to speak for a while.

When the court was finally disbanded, a senior minister knelt down, trembling and earnestly said: "Your Majesty, the succession of the royal family is of course important, but please also pay attention to the health of the dragon. Your Majesty, it is the foundation of the country."

Tao Zhiyan had a blank expression of "I don't know what you're talking about", and waved his fingers, with two dark circles under his eyes, and flung his sleeves away.

**

Xie Zhu was conferred the title of nobleman and arranged to live in Qingzhu Palace, just like its name, backed by a quiet bamboo forest, two courtyards, not grand, but elegant and noble.

As soon as she entered the main hall, the chief eunuch brought in the maids and eunuchs assigned to Xie Zhu. The chief announced that Xie Zhu was bestowed the title of nobleman by the emperor, and he was accompanied by eight court ladies and eight eunuchs. The name of the servants was heard, and the eunuch's loud reminder came from the door: "The empress is here!"

Everyone hurried out of the hall and knelt down to greet him.

The queen was at the front, still dressed in elegant palace robes, with a gentle smile, she quickly stepped forward to hold Xie Zhu's hand, and pulled her up.

"No need to be polite."

The queen held Xie Zhu's hand, and asked for warmth, with countless rewards, all of them were lined up from the entrance of the palace to the entrance of the palace.

The two sat in the main hall, and after drinking tea that they didn't know how to eat for a long time, the queen took Xie Zhu's hand kindly, and said softly: "Your Majesty has always been ruthless and doesn't like to spoil the harem. You are the first one called by Your Majesty." , Therefore, I entrust you with the important task of extending the descendants."

Xie Zhu was stunned, isn't the emperor a woman?

How can it be extended?

The queen glanced at Xie Zhu again with a smile, and said: "I worked hard last night, my sister. Your majesty is the first time to eat meat, and you must eat the marrow to know the taste. After this day, you have to continue to work hard. Here is another 300-year-old snow ginseng in this palace. You can keep it. Replenish your body well, and strive to conceive a dragon fetus as soon as possible."

Xie Zhu: "..."

This is a misunderstanding, she just knelt by the bed all night last night!

After the queen finished speaking, she still had an expression of "Come on, I love you", and after leaving a slight smile, she led her group of palace people and left Qingzhu Palace.

Xie Zhu looked at the [-]-year-old snow ginseng, then at the long line of rewards packed in trays or boxes, and was stunned for two seconds, whatever.

She jumped off the chair, ready to look through those rewards carefully, and see the good things in the court.

But as soon as her feet landed, her knees ached, she hissed, and hurriedly supported the table.

"Your Majesty!" Mingzhu immediately took her by the hand and led her to Lige, rolled up her trouser legs to see the injury on her knee.

Both knees are blue.

Mingzhu frowned, and complained dissatisfiedly: "Your Majesty is too, too...too much, and your mother's knees are blue, can't you put a pillow or something?"

Xie Zhu: "...Good idea, why don't you sew me a knee pad, so that I can protect my poor knee next time I'm kneeling all night again."

"One night?" Mingzhu's eyes widened in shock, "Your Majesty, he...one night?"

Xie Zhu: "...I didn't mean that, in fact, last night, Your Majesty and I..."

"The imperial concubine is here!" Another announcement sounded, interrupting Xie Zhu's words.

Mingzhu quickly put down Xie Zhu's skirt and took her out to meet the noble concubine.

Xie Zhu was a little confused, and asked in a low voice: "Who is the imperial concubine? Why did she come to see me?"

Mingzhu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, you didn't take the class seriously before! Your Majesty's harem is thin, with only one concubine and two concubines in total. The noble concubine is the daughter of Prime Minister Zuo, named Liu Xi, and entered the palace last year."

After hastily finished speaking, the two had already walked out of the main hall.

Outside the hall, there stood a beautiful woman in golden clothes, with gorgeous and dignified attire, but she still couldn't hide her immaturity and innocence. With a pair of watery almond eyes, she looked up and down Xie Zhu curiously.

"You are the new beauty who made His Majesty open...unconventional?" She didn't look at the slightest, and said familiarly when she stepped forward, "Well, you really have a refined temperament, and you just look different from those of us who are not eye-catching."

Xie Zhu said in embarrassment: "Actually not, it's just luck that His Majesty felt kind."

Liu Xi looked at her, nodded and said: "Bengong looks at you, and I feel kind. Come on, come in, go in and have a good chat with Bengong, there hasn't been a newcomer in this palace for a long time, it's so boring!"

She pulled Xie Zhu and walked straight forward regardless.

Entering the main hall, after the two sat down, she couldn't wait to ask Xie Zhu about the detailed process of spending the night with the emperor last night.

Seeing that her eyes were shining with gold and her face was full of gossip, Xie Zhu paused.

Does she want to tell the truth?

In the TV series, it is said that the harem is complicated and dangerous, and one must be careful at every step, so is she now vigilantly concealing it, or is she frankly confessing?

"Just tell me, I'm really curious!" Liu Xi grabbed Xie Zhu's sleeve, puffing up her cheeks and acting like a spoiled child, "I promise never to tell anyone, really, I can swear!"

Seeing her innocent appearance, Xie Zhu thought for a while, and decided to trust her for the time being and take a gamble, maybe he could get a reliable little partner.

She frankly told the real situation last night.

Liu Xi looked shocked: "Your Majesty just let you kneel by the bed all night? Did you do nothing but look at you?"

Xie Zhu nodded: "Yes."

Liu Xi opened his mouth in shock for a long time, and murmured: "Could it be that the rumors are all true?"

Xie Zhu asked curiously: "What rumor?"

Liu Xi leaned over and approached, lowered his voice: "Your Majesty won't do it."

Xie Zhu: "..."

Chapter 21

Xie Zhu didn't know if the emperor himself knew about this matter, how did it get out, Xie Zhu didn't know, she only knew that the emperor came to sleep with her again.

And this time, the emperor came in person.

Xie Zhu hurriedly knelt down to greet him.

Tao Zhiyan nodded slowly, raised his hand and said, "Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xie Zhu stood up and followed Tao Zhiyan into the room.

Tao Zhiyan sat down on the soft kang without saying a word, the chief eunuch said, "Your Majesty came to see your majesty after finishing state affairs, and you haven't even had dinner yet."

Xie Zhu immediately said: "The concubine will order someone to prepare."

She glanced at Mingzhu, Mingzhu understood, and hurriedly exited the room, ordering the kitchen to prepare.

Tao Zhiyan hooked his finger at Xie Zhu again, letting her go.

Xie Zhu stepped forward in two steps, and knelt down in front of the soft kang in a very polite manner, so as not to waste the emperor's instructions.

Tao Zhiyan looked down at her, and said slowly, "You...are good at...cooking."

Xie Zhu replied: "A little bit, but not good at it."

Tao Zhiyan nodded and frowned, as if he was struggling to remember, and after a long time, he uttered two words: "ribs."

Xie Zhu's heart trembled, she is, do you still remember the events of the last world?

"Yes?" Tao Zhiyan asked.

Xie Zhu nodded: "Yes, but not as good as the royal chef in the harem..."

Tao Zhiyan raised his hand, interrupted Xie Zhu's words, and said slowly, "I...want to eat...go...do it."

Xie Zhu paused in surprise, and said, "Yes."

The ancient spices were not available, so Xie Zhu could only try his best to improve the taste and prepare to add a simmer. After finishing it, it was already dark, and she still smelled from the oily smoke.

After setting out the soup, Xie Zhu went to invite the emperor to eat.

Tao Zhiyan looked at the soup carefully, frowned, took two more bites, and frowned again after tasting the taste.

Xie Zhu knew that he must be dissatisfied. After all, he was used to delicacies from all over the world since he was a child, and the imperial chefs in the harem were all very selective.
