The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 59 Distrust

At sunset, the palace is still busy.

Xue Baoyun walked in the corridor, her expression was a little bit pained, because she had a lot of blood today.

At the end of the banquet, she gave rich gifts to every official wife and brought top-quality silk and satin from the palace.

Even Xue Baoyun was keen on these things, that woman didn't want to wear beautiful clothes, but today she gave away a lot of these high-quality silks and satins.

Although he felt uncomfortable, Xue Baojun was not a stingy person after all, and he calmed down after a while.

When he came outside the palace, even if Xue Baoyun was the princess, he would still be able to meet Zhao Yanxun.

"Your Majesty, the prince is waiting for you inside!" Lin Quan said flatteringly.

Swinging back the maids who followed him, Xue Baoyun stepped into the hall.

The candles in the hall were brightly lit, Xue Baoyun did not see Zhao Yanxun in the main hall, but heard Huang Rongrong's voice.

"My lord, the concubine sent out a lot of silk and satin today, it's heartbreaking to see!"

Hearing these words, Xue Baojun's face turned dark, and he hated Huang Rongrong even more in his heart.

Then she appeared outside the side hall, and inside she saw Zhao Yanxun sitting at the head and Huang Rongrong beside her.

Lin Jingyu, who was sitting on the chair on the left, was a little embarrassed when she saw Xue Baojun coming over, and complained in her heart that Huang Rongrong was outspoken.

"The princess is here, come and sit!" Zhao Yanxun pointed to the chair next to him.

Huang Rongrong was a little afraid of Xue Baojun, so she immediately got up and returned to her seat.

"Wang Concubine, Concubine Rong's heart aches for those silks and satins that were sent out, and you must be very reluctant to part with them!" Zhao Yanxun smiled slightly.

I got some good news today, so Zhao Yanxun was in a good mood, so he joked with Xue Baojun.

"My lord was joking, how can my concubine be so stingy!" Xue Baoyun looked at Huang Rongrong when he said this.

The latter pretended to be an ostrich at this time, Zhao Yanxun laughed dryly twice, and eased Huang Rongrong's embarrassment.

"Are these female family members satisfied with today's reception?" Zhao Yanxun talked about the business.

Xue Baoyun stopped being petty at this moment, and sat next to Zhao Yanxun and said: "It's not bad, the concubine has already told them that we will get together next time when we find a chance!"

"What did they say?"

"Staying around in the mansion is also boring, and they are naturally willing to come out for a walk!"

Zhao Yanxun nodded: "Okay, this is a good start. After walking around with them more, the relationship will become familiar!"

"My lord, the joint officials... are really just to fight against the so-called doomsday?" Xue Baoyun looked solemn.

Hearing this question, Lin Jingyu also pricked up her ears, wanting to hear the real answer.

Zhao Yanxun was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Then why not? Could it be that the reason I'm making such a fuss is to become the emperor in the capital?"

Knowing Xue Baoyun's intentions, Zhao Yanxun simply said it out.

"Don't think I'm joking with you. The cruelty of the end times is beyond your imagination, so I will do my best to unite with the Longyou government and concentrate on fighting the end times!"

"Those monsters, one of the palace is closed now, if you don't believe me...I can show you now!"

These words directly brought back some bad memories of Lin Jingyu. She still vividly remembered the scene when Wang Changxin mutated.

"My lord, since the last days are so cruel, why didn't you tell the Longyou government directly?" Huang Rongrong asked.

"Even you don't believe it. People in the government are already wary of us, so they won't believe it!" Zhao Yanxun said helplessly.

Who knew that Huang Rongrong got up directly and said: "My lord, if they don't believe...you just put that closed monster in front of their eyes, so they won't believe it?"

In fact, Zhao Yanxun really had such an idea, but after thinking about it again and again, he dismissed it.

The crux of the problem lies in people's opinion of him.

If he doesn't get rid of his prejudice and guard, even if he puts the zombie in front of Tian Jingtong, the other party will only think that he is using low-level tactics to force others to act according to his wishes.

"Wait a minute!"

Now that he is improving the relationship with the Longyou government, when the right time comes, Zhao Yanxun will put the zombie in front of Tian Jing and the others.

Although the apocalypse has arrived, the order has not been lost. Prince Zhao Yanxun's identity is not only an advantage, but also holds him in place like a shackle.

The system of etiquette and law is a word in the modern population, but it is an iron law in this era.

Zhao Yanxun also wanted to shake off his arms and do his own thing, but it was just thinking about it.

…………

Besides Cheng Mansion, when Mrs. Liu drove home in a carriage, dinner had already been prepared in the mansion, and Cheng Wenguang was waiting for his wife in the small hall.

As the chief official of the frontier, the family members of Governor Tian Jingtong all lived in the capital.

Therefore, among the female family members who went to the palace today, the highest status is Mrs. Liu, and of course Mrs. Zhang, the wife of Ancha.

After entering the room, seeing her husband waiting for her, Mrs. Liu took off her cloak and went to meet her.

"master!"

"Sit down, go to the palace today... what did you see and hear?" Cheng Wenguang said slowly.

This is not his gossip, but what Tian Jingtong wanted to ask in greeting. Of course, Cheng Wenguang felt that he also needed to know.

"In the palace, the grandeur is extraordinary, and this concubine has learned a lot today!"

After sitting down, Mrs. Liu talked about her experiences during the day, from Xue Baoyun who visited the mansion to receiving silk from the palace.

"Master, those silks and satins...but it's hard to buy good things even if you have money, they are all tributes only given to the palace!" Mrs. Liu was full of praise.

Cheng Wenguang was expressionless, and then asked, "Didn't you see King Yong the whole time?"

"I haven't seen His Royal Highness King Yong!"

"What the princess said, tell me again in detail!" Cheng Wenguang said slowly.

Although she didn't understand her husband's intentions, Mrs. Liu recounted it again.

After listening, Cheng Wenguang said: "There is something in the princess's words!"

"From my concubine's perspective, the concubine just wants to say that she and the prince just want to live a peaceful life!"

When Mrs. Liu expressed her thoughts, Cheng Wenguang immediately asked, "Do you think what she said is credible?"

"He is a prince who is in the vassal state, and the right way is to live a stable life. I feel that the princess is confiding in her heart!"

Although the Liu family is a woman, after all, she has followed Cheng Wenguang for many years, and she has also tempered her vision under the influence of her ears and eyes.

"Master thinks what the concubine said is not the truth?" Liu asked rhetorically.

After shaking his head, Cheng Wenguang said: "Let's look at it for now, who can say about this kind of thing, what if King Yong is trying to confuse us!"

As long as King Yong doesn't make troubles and is a wealthy prince honestly, the civil servants group is willing to accept him.

The key now is that the civil servants are not at ease with him, to be precise, they are worried about the concubine Duan in the harem.

"My lord, the concubine also said... that she will invite us to the mansion for a banquet in the future, so why not go?" Mrs. Liu expressed her doubts.

"It's okay, you can go if you have to, but pay more attention to the situation in the palace!" Cheng Wenguang said indifferently.

Cheng Wenguang felt that it was a good thing to gain more understanding of Prince Yong's Mansion through this informal banquet.

I hope that this King Yong is really willing to be an idle prince, and doesn't have any unreasonable thoughts about the big man... Cheng Wenguang thought to himself.
