Emperor's Trophy

"What do you think the emperor agreed to?" Yun Zhen turned his head and looked at Zhang Yan in shock.

Zhang Yan said: "Last time the king of Qingyang County talked to me⑻ and said that he wanted to introduce his cousin, Ms. Zhou's family, to you as a concubine. I told you that there are a lot of things going on recently, and I'm afraid you didn't take care of them. The king of Qingyang County will soon go to the vassal. Since the emperor agreed, it's better to do it earlier. Although it is a concubine, the Zhou family is You can't ignore the big family... You still have to give the dignity that should be given. Theoretically, if you don't marry a wife, it's not very good to be a concubine. But one is that the emperor is picky, and it's hard to find a regular wife. The other is that you are doing what you do for a living. There is a risk, the concubine is in business, the concubine will not be involved, you also have someone to serve..."

Yun Zhen's face almost cracked: "Who said I want to take Zhou's daughter as my concubine? You actually went to the emperor to beg?"

Zhang Yan said: "The emperor asked if you meant it. I said that you are still young, so I should be too embarrassed to speak... Qingyang King has always been close to you, and the person he recommends will not be bad. Arrange someone in the room It's also normal, you can just serve it first, and when you have Mrs. Hou, you can help her as a concubine, as long as the emperor says you are happy."

With a face full of despair, Yun Zhen jumped up: "Zhang Lian, you killed me... I have already rejected the king of Qingyang County, so don't worry about it. No, I have to go to the palace to talk to the emperor. explain."

Zhang Yan was baffled, looking at Yunzhen, he dared to burn the imperial decree!Now you take a concubine and panic like this?Although they are related to Prince Qingyang, the Prince of Qingyang had very little hope in the first place, so there is no need to worry about the suspicion of making friends with the clan, as she is a woman from a family of merchants...

Yun Zhen was in such a panic that he hurriedly changed his clothes and was about to enter the palace. Before leaving, he said to Zhang Yan: "I am so Longyang, please remember, don't spoil other people's daughters."

Zhang Yan looked up in shock: "What?"

Yun Zhen has already left quickly, leaving only Zhang Yandashou⒒ao

In the palace, Ji Bingyuan was riding a horse and archery on the school grounds, while Gao Xin and a group of Long Xiangwei accompanied him and ran and shot at the target in turn.

Seeing that there were many people, Yun Zhen had no choice but to follow aside with low eyebrows. Ji Bingyuan turned his head and saw that he just stretched out his hand and pulled him onto the horse. The two of them rode together and ran around the field twice. After shooting a few rounds with the bow, he got off the horse again, and squatted up and down for more than a hundred times holding the stone lock. His whole body was sweating slightly, so he ordered someone to prepare water and went to Yutang Pond.

Seeing that Ji Bingyuan was doing as usual, Yun Zhen felt uneasy. He waved the person who was waiting for Ji Bingyuan to undress to go down, and then went to untie Ji Bingyuan's belt himself.

Ji Bingyuan turned to look at him and said with a smile: "Why don't you go back and get busy taking concubines? I already promised you, don't you need to be so gentle every day?"

Yun Zhen knelt down while holding his belt, "Your Majesty, Zhang Lian made his own decision... I don't know!"

Naturally, Ji Bingyuan knew it was Zhang Yan. He was just laughing casually to see why Yunzhen was so obedient to him these days, but when he looked down, he saw that Yunzhen's face was as white as paper. , was actually frightened, and felt a little distressed, pulled him up and said: "Why are you so scared, I have nothing to do with it." Why are you so worried about gains and losses, and have no confidence in me?

Yun Zhen said aggrievedly: "I have no dissent towards the emperor."

Ji Bingyuan said: "I see that you are very popular, but I didn't expect Ji Huaisheng to be too ⒅ gluttonous badger fluke Min Huan pardon!

Yun Zhen stretched out his hand to take off Ji Bingyuan's coat and jacket: "He just wants to win over me, the emperor's favorite. The Zhou family is very rich, and it's more than enough to pick someone from a poor family to be a straight lady." of."

Ji Bingyuan said: "Who told you to be so obedient to me every day, I thought you really wanted to give Ji Huaisheng this face, and I was too embarrassed to talk to me."

Yun Zhen said: "The emperor doesn't believe me?"

Ji Bingyuan said: "You are too abnormal these days."

Yun Zhen also undressed himself, and soaked in the Yutang Pond with Ji Bingyuan. It was another year when the pear blossoms bloomed. Yun Zhen soaked comfortably in the water and said, "Because I think I'm going to go out for inspection soon, so I can't accompany the emperor." It’s over.” Thinking about the possible upcoming Great War in Beiqi, he didn’t know if Jiang Ning would still be able to fight after going to Beiqi, but if it was the same as before, he didn’t know that he would still be able to live in such peace with the emperor. How many days are there.

He used to hug Ji Bingyuan, and Ji Bingyuan laughed softly, hugging him, he curled up like a newborn baby, and pressed against Ji Bingyuan's chest, listening to his strong and rhythmic heartbeat, smelling light With a gentle fragrance, he said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, I want to say that it took me a few lifetimes to cultivate such a comfortable life, I really like it."

Ji Bingyuan stroked his wet hair slowly: "I also feel that being the emperor for so long, being with Qing is the most comfortable."

The two kissed tenderly on the misty water, with infinite tenderness.

==============

North wedge.

King Changguang and Patriarch Youhu came out, looked into the cheers, and saw the scene where Yuan Zhao put the winning wolf feather crown on the white wolf warrior.

A fox patriarch said: "This year, the white wolf warrior will be determined quickly. In previous years, it would be at least until evening."

King Changguang was proud: "That's my son."

The head of the fox clan was startled, looked at the tall man and stood up, and stood silently behind Yuan Zhao, in a gesture of obedience and obedience, he was thoughtful.

In the evening, the Empress Dowager, Yuan Zhao, the head of the Youhu clan, and Uncle Hu Guo had dinner together in the palace.

A fox patriarch took two sips of mulled wine, and said to Queen Mother Hu: "This year, it is our turn to have the fox clan to graze the pasture by the Bachi River this year, but King Changguang taught us to give it up to the Baiyu clan. It's so depressing, you Why don't you plan and plan for me in the middle, we have a fox clan who has a noble queen mother, and the life is not as good as other clans."

Empress Dowager Hu yawned slightly. She has been pampered and respected for many years, and everyone is flattering to her. She can't hear bad words. Giving you another hundred female slaves, isn’t that affordable enough? It’s just to make you suffer on the surface. The White Feather Clan has not been going well in the past few years. The Clan has been wooed, and the Zhu Niao Clan, now it seems that they are not giving Wang Ting face, this year's tribute is [-]% less than last year, and it is only said that they have suffered from frost, hehe."

Patriarch Hu said: "But what's our face like this? Why did we have to suffer a loss after giving birth to a promising daughter? Anyway, I don't have the face to go out and drink with people this year."

Empress Dowager Hu said angrily: "Look at what Daddy said, everyone has daughters, and everyone can count on their daughters to make money for themselves? Daddy doesn't care about helping your daughter and your grandson, he only wants to save face, but Didn't you see our hard support?"

Uncle Hu Guo hurriedly ⒃Bo> collapsed Ao Jing's threshold to play tricks on father, just to complain to his family, isn't this still a promise to King Changguang?Speaking of King Changguang, it is interesting enough, the hundred female slaves are all young and beautiful..."

Empress Dowager Hu couldn't take it anymore, she got up and walked away in a hurry.

The head of the Fox family lost all face now, sitting there was extremely embarrassed, angry and annoyed, his face was red and white.

Yuan Zhao had always been ignored in the past, and he didn't say a word when he saw them quarreling before, and he gloated when he saw any of them getting angry.

Now, for some reason, he suddenly remembered the words Jiang Ning said, "Scholars follow each other with morality and righteousness. If the king loses morality and righteousness, there will be no scholars around him."

Is it moral?

Yuan Zhao scoffed in his heart, of course he still wanted benefits, but...he had to put on a layer of morality.

He got up suddenly, took the jug with his own hands, went to the head of Youhu, and poured him a glass of wine.

Yuan Zhao is the king after all, even if he is just a useless gorgeous puppet on weekdays, now he is dressed in a gorgeous fur suit and a white wolf feather crown on his head, and he comes down to pour wine for him with his own hands. His anger suddenly calmed down, and he saw Yuan Zhao smiled and said to him: "Grandpa calmed down, mother didn't sleep well, women are like this, tempers come and go quickly, it may not be because you really embarrass grandpa. Chang, I have come from a long way, and I apologize to you on behalf of my mother."

He calmly classified his mother into the category of women—Bei Qi looked down on women, women should only bear children, take care of the housework, herd cattle and feed horses, tribes were overthrown, female slaves were precious property, and beloved slaves, But no one has ever been willing to submit to a woman, so Queen Mother Hu still had to unite with King Changguang to stabilize the young master Yuan Zhao.

Seeing Yuan Zhao's low-pitched words, the head of the Fox clan instantly calmed down, and said with great joy, "Sure enough, the king has grown up and understands the truth. I saw Wang Ting win the title of White Wolf Warrior today? This year Wang Ting won the title of White Wolf Warrior? Warriors."

Yuan Zhao said with a smile: "That is the son of Prince Changguang. He is indeed wise and brave. It's just that his mother is humble. The day before yesterday, the queen mother scolded him for seducing me for fun. I felt very uneasy when I gave him twenty sticks. I want to reward him with something. I am afraid that my mother will be angry, but Wang Shizi was ordered to accompany the driver, and I asked him to play Cuju. He obeyed the order, so how can he be blamed? Well, why is this so, it's a pity that I don't want to reward some silver, even if I want to reward some medicine."

The head of the fox family was very dissatisfied when he heard this: "The Queen Mother is not right. The eldest son of King Changguang, no matter how humble his biological mother is, is also the son of King Changguang. The son of the king is accompanied by the king. She is in pain." Gu Sisu is really short-sighted and has acted rashly."

Hu Guojiu said: "Yes, the White Wolf Warrior, that is a well-known name. If you go out to the twelve tribes, who is disrespectful? If you go to war, you will be the commander-in-chief! Besides, I heard that the son of the prince His biological mother was an orchid, she was very beautiful. It was said that her sister was jealous and ordered someone to sell her. He lived outside and suffered so much for so many years. This meal is probably going to make people feel cold .”

Yuan Zhao was taken aback, but he didn't know about it. In fact, Uncle Hu Guo also coveted that orchid at that time, so he remembered that he smacked his lips: "I still remember the gift from the Zhu Bird Clan to King Changguang." , the eyes are blue as beautiful as the water of the lake, and she sings beautifully, I think King Changguang loves him very much..."

The head of the fox family coughed lightly, and said kindly to Yuan Zhao: "You have grown up now, and your mother doesn't give you some money. It's really inappropriate. I'll ask your uncle to give you some money later. Take the usual use."

Yuan Zhao shook his head and said: "It's actually okay, but sometimes no one will order you to do something, why don't you give me some boys to accompany me, Grandpa?"

A fox patriarch was surprised and said, "Doesn't the king have a personal guard?"

A trace of melancholy appeared on Yuan Zhao's face: "Without reward money, I can't control them, and even my mother's favored wizards are easier to control than me."

A fox patriarch said angrily: "Your mother is really! She doesn't give you power, what do you want? You are so old!"

Yuan Zhao said: "Grandpa, don't be angry. My mother probably didn't think so much. King Changguang is careful and sent Wang Shizi in to accompany me. He also has many people under his command. It's just that it's not good for me to command his people." I am confident and confident, and I am also afraid that I owe too much favor to King Changguang, and I will not be able to refuse his request in the future. For example, this time my grandfather suffered a loss, and I feel sorry for my grandfather, saying that it is a benefit, so what? Why don’t you send sheep and female slaves to the White Feather Clan? Since the rules have been established, then follow the rules. Today, you can hurt the hearts of the Fox Clan because you win over the White Feather Clan. If this rule is broken, everyone will only think about what to do in the future It is really unfair to win the favor of the royal court."

A fox patriarch didn't expect Yuan Zhao to say such a big truth suddenly, and slapped his thigh: "Isn't it! I mean that although King Changguang said something high-sounding, I always feel that something is wrong! Change every three years, This is the rule agreed upon by everyone! I can make an exception for the Baiyu clan this year, and for whom will I make the exception next year? Year after year, do I have a fox clan that deserves to have a daughter to be the queen mother? The original purpose of the Wang Ting is to uphold justice! Sure enough, your mother is short-sighted! She only knows how to cater to King Changguang's selfishness!"

Youhu patriarch looked at Xia Yuanzhao again, and suddenly remembered that his grandson had grown up!It's time to be in charge soon!No wonder King Changguang was in a hurry to send his son to Wang Jia's side. This was to continue to win over the king and control him!The daughter is indeed a woman, and she is short-sighted!All day long, she only knows how to pamper and cater to men, and never thinks about how to win over and teach this child!If he continues to let the prince of Changguang serve Yuan Zhao, the Youhu family will soon lose their backbone!

The head of the Fox clan has already made a quick decision: "I will choose the sons of the headmen in the tribe when I go back, and let them bring their own people to the royal court to serve you. When you send some money, you don’t have to be embarrassed to use Changguang Wang Shizi. Of course, Wang Shizi is both wise and brave. If the king can win over, just win over, but it’s just like today. You are the master of the royal family, the king of the twelve tribes, You should be impartial and uphold justice!"

A smile flashed across Yuan Zhao's eyes, he stood up and respectfully poured another glass of wine for the head of the Youhu clan: "No wonder the Youhu clan has been prosperous and prosperous, it turns out that there is such a wise and decisive leader as Grandpa, grandpa, don't worry, King Changguang On the other hand, I know in my heart, no matter what, it’s no better than the Fox Clan’s side, they are connected by blood, so who else can I trust?”

The three of them feasted until late at night, and they talked very happily. The head of the Fox family suddenly found that his grandson was kind, just, kind, and wise.

Yuan Zhao sent the leader of Youhu away, with a slight sneer in his heart, is this the "king's morality"?It really works.
