Emperor Zhengde of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 104 Stop Pretending!
Zhu Houzhao sat down with Liu Jian and others to have a banquet. Today's banquet has only one purpose, and they have already explained it to His Majesty.

It is impossible for Zhang Xuan to become a queen, otherwise, the Zhang family's power would be too great. Besides, in Zhu Houzhao's heart, such a major event happened, he has long disliked this uncle.

After drinking and eating, Zhu Houzhao got up, and Cao Zhengchun followed behind, not leaving an inch.

"My dear friends, I want to see the courtyard and appreciate the moon tonight, you all should step back!"

Zhu Houzhao found that Yang Tinghe's courtyard was very large and deep. It would cost at least tens of thousands of taels of silver to build such a pavilion!

This Yang Tinghe family is very prominent, and he has never been stingy with his own money.

Liu Jian and others retreated, while Zhu Houzhao walked deep in the courtyard.

At this time, Yang Tinghe looked at the back of the emperor not far away, and sighed in his heart.However, a thought soon appeared in his mind.

"Why not create a condition for Yan'er to meet the emperor? After all, Yan'er is lovesick."

"This pavilion is well built, very unique!"

Zhu Houzhao visited the pavilion in the back garden and saw the three characters "Moon-Wang Pavilion" on the pavilion under the light of a bright moon.

In the back garden, Yang Yan, who had no chance to see the emperor's face, was resolving her depression. She turned her head and looked not far away, and a young figure appeared in front of her, so familiar, yet strange.

Yang Yan's heart was beating wildly at this moment.

Cao Zhengchun, who was in the dark, saw Yang Yan and recognized her immediately.

She is Yang Tinghe's daughter, should she stop her or not?
Seeing Yang Yan's appearance, Cao Zhengchun finally decided not to stop him. The emperor's beauty is not shallow, if he went out to block him at this time, wouldn't it spoil the emperor's happiness?
Cao Zhengchun is a person who knows how to flatter and flatter others. He naturally knows how to make His Majesty happy.

Although he is an eunuch, he knows that all men have a side that likes beauty, not to mention that this is the king of a country.

The other guards were all stopped by Cao Zhengchun, who wanted to create a coincidental scene for the emperor to have an affair in the backyard.

After all, the emperor deals with government affairs all day long, so he finally has a chance to relax, and he can really use it this time.

Cao Zhengchun looked at the peerless beauty approaching the emperor with a smile on his face, and he said inwardly, "Yang Tinghe, Yang Tinghe, I see your daughter enters the palace in the future, how can she compete with Princess Zhangxuan for favor in the future? The fun is yet to come. !"

Inside the moon-watching pavilion.

When Zhu Houzhao heard the footsteps, he thought it was Yang Tinghe who had come, and didn't look back.However, a faint feminine scent soon reached his nose.

He took a few breaths, feeling intoxicated!

When he looked back, it was not Yang Tinghe at all, but a peerless beauty.

This beauty is definitely not inferior to anyone in the palace.

"you are?"

Yang Yan couldn't believe that the man in front of her was the man in the painting she bought from the palace with a lot of money before, it was exactly the same.

In Yang Yan's view, if he wanted to see the emperor, he had to pass the test of the Ouchi guards. Now that there were no Ouchi guards, the person in front of him must not be the emperor.

Zhu Houzhao immediately calmed down and asked, "Who are you Yang Tinghe?"

Yang Yan did not answer Zhu Houzhao's question directly, but asked: "Did my father find you? Are you here to deceive me?"

After hearing this, Zhu Houzhao was a little confused.

What is this with?This girl should be Yang Tinghe's daughter.

"However, you look a lot like him!"

"Who?" Zhu Houzhao asked instinctively.

Yang Yan also sat opposite Zhu Houzhao and replied: "He, my sweetheart."

"Your sweetheart? Who is it? Tell me and I will listen." Zhu Houzhao said.

"I'm afraid it will scare you to say it."

"Hehe, tell me, let's see who can scare me."

"Forget it, don't say anything, anyway, you are not him, so don't pretend."

"Who are you talking about? Who is pretending?" Zhu Houzhao asked with a confused face.

"It's not like I don't know my father's temper. Besides, even though my father was a great scholar at the time and couldn't be invited back to be his successor, my father found someone who looked similar to me to meet him."

After Yang Yan finished speaking, a layer of mist seemed to appear in her eyes.

Zhu Houzhao also seemed to understand what Yang Yan said, but he was not too clear.

"I don't look like me?"

As soon as these words came out, Yang Yan widened her eyes and looked around, only to find that there was no one, so she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Don't say such big words, won't you take pictures of the nine implicated clans? Aren't you afraid, our Yang family can't afford it."

Zhu Houzhao frowned. He grew up so big, and no one had ever talked to him like this.

Yang Yan's heart skipped a beat. Although this man looked harmless to humans and animals, and also looked like a weak scholar, this frown made people feel timid.

"Forget it, this person may be a person who has seen big winds and waves, and this is nothing at all."

From Yang Yan's point of view, she was destined not to see the emperor in her whole life. All the eunuchs and maids in the palace could see the emperor. She felt that her life was not as good as that of the eunuchs.

"If, I mean if, I write a letter, can you send it to the palace for me and hand it over to the current emperor?"

Zhu Houzhao smiled slightly, knowing that Yang Yan has not regarded him as the emperor until now, and that's right, he is often in the palace, how can ordinary people see him easily?

If you say you are the emperor, then the other party must think you are a fool.

"Of course you can, but when you work in the palace, you usually have to give benefits. The average person is ten taels of silver. For you, it's three times! 30 taels, how about it?" Zhu Houzhao said seriously, half-jokingly.

Yang Yan felt a little dizzy when she heard the person in front of her say that!

"How are you?"

"It's okay, it's just that I haven't eaten for several days, and I feel a little tired now. It's okay, I'll write now, money is not a problem."

"No, eat first, and then you will have the strength to write after eating."

"Well, only you can send this letter to the emperor for me, and you must agree to all conditions."

Yang Yan sat down and ate something casually.

"Ling'er, bring the pen and ink!"

Yang Yan said to the girl that they have been together all the time, staying in their boudoir, so they don't know anything about what happened outside.

Yang Yan writes with a brush.

"You are not allowed to peek, turn your head away!"

While writing, Yang Yan said to Zhu Houzhao.

"I don't have any silver on me right now, so I'll give you this golden hairpin first, at least 50 taels of silver."

"Forget it, it's just a little effort!"

"Don't speak wild words, unless you are a servant in the palace, otherwise it is impossible to be so relaxed."

"However, it seems that you should be the imperial guard. You look a bit thin." After saying that, Yang Yan stood up.

She walked a few steps, turned around, and said to Zhu Houzhao very seriously: "No peeking!"

Zhu Houzhao couldn't laugh or cry.
