Consort Zhanzhao

"Mother Concubine." Zhen Guo Princess Zhao Bijia greeted her biological mother Zhang Guifei with a smile.

Concubine Zhang beckoned and said, "Why are you here so early today?"

Zhao Bijia sat beside Concubine Zhang affectionately.

Although Concubine Zhang Gui was over [-] years old and had several children, although she and her younger brother were the only ones who survived, they looked not much worse than the young girls who had just entered the palace.

Zhao Bijia thought so, and said so. Of course, words like "over thirty" don't need to be said to irritate her mother.

Zhang Guifei laughed so hard that she couldn't close her mouth, "You child, you have been like this since you were a child. Your father doesn't talk much, and I am not as good at talking as you."

Zhao Bijia laughed along with Concubine Zhang, and asked her to take out all the delicious food hidden in the palace for her to taste. Concubine Zhang became happier.

"Getting up early every day and being tossed by you like this makes me feel very refreshed all day long."

The mother and daughter were joking, and said to make two new clothes for the younger brother, only to hear the sound of applause outside.

"Why are you so noisy today?" Zhao Bijia said while walking to the window to have a look.

Seeing a red figure on the eaves not far away, turning up and down freely, she couldn't help being stunned, "Over there is..."

The maid who came with her said: "That's Yaowu Tower."

Concubine Zhang smiled and said: "Two days ago, Master Bao recommended a person from the Jianghu, saying that he is highly skilled in martial arts. Today, your father asked him to demonstrate his martial arts in Yaowu Building."

Zhao Bijia couldn't help being stunned. The people from the Jianghu recommended by Mr. Bao are still showing martial arts in the palace... From ancient times to the present, she only knows one.

Zhan Zhao!

"I'll go and have a look!" Zhao Bijia said, wanting to go out in a hurry.

"Your father asked him to stay in Yaowu Building just to let us see the excitement."

But before she could finish her sentence, Zhao Bijia had already run to the gate of the palace, "Change into men's clothes before going!" Zhang Guifei shouted from behind.

"Understood." Zhao Bijia's voice came from the air, and the person had already walked away.

"This child." Zhang Guifei complained.

"Princess is still young," Concubine Zhang Guifei's confidant lady Lan Jun comforted her, "Your Majesty dotes on her again. Hearing that there is excitement, naturally I have to go and see it with my own eyes."

"I know that." Concubine Zhang Guifei said: "She will be choosing a son-in-law in two or three years, why is she still so lively?"

"Your Majesty is still worried?" Lan Jun said with a smile: "The princess's title is the Princess of Zhenguo, and she is the only princess who has entered the title and had a fief before she got married, not to mention that there is Your Majesty's only prince under her knee. Your Majesty If you like her so much, what is your mother afraid of?"

Zhang Guifei sighed, "Mothers are like this."

"This is no human, this is clearly my royal cat."

Following Emperor Renzong's words, Zhan Zhao fell from the Yaowu Tower and knelt in front of the emperor to thank him.

The emperor smiled and said, "Feng Zhanzhao is a guard with a knife for the fourth rank of the Imperial Palace, and works in Kaifeng Mansion."

When the emperor was talking, he naturally didn't dare to be interrupted, so when he stopped, there was no sound at all.

meow~

Until a meow sounded, everyone heard it.

The emperor frowned, and said: "This is—" He turned his head and saw a snow-white cat running towards him, and immediately smiled, "This is my..." A There was a slightly weird pause, "This is the little prince's cat. Hurry up and hug it, if you can't find it later, she will be unhappy again."

The little eunuch who was following the emperor immediately ran over to the four of them, but before they could catch the cat, the white cat turned its head and ran back.

Although Zhan Zhao was kneeling on the ground, he was strong in martial arts and had good ears and eyes. When he heard the white cat coming, another person ran over on the way.

He just tilted his head slightly, and then glanced at the person coming from the corner of his eye.

A young man in brocade clothes and jade robes, about fifteen or sixteen years old.

Red lips and white teeth, looks very good-looking.

Lord Bao coughed lightly, and Zhan Zhao remembered his instructions before entering the palace in the morning, so he quickly calmed down and lowered his head.

The white cat meowed twice at the boy and stopped at his feet.

The boy bent down, hugged the cat in his arms, and walked towards the emperor.

"Father."

The emperor looked at the young man with a smile, and for a while forgot all the people who were still kneeling on the ground.

The young man pointed to the kneeling man, and the emperor suddenly reacted and said, "Aiqing is flat. Guard Zhan, you will follow Bao Qing back to Kaifeng mansion."

"Thank you, Lord Long En." Zhan Zhao stood up with Lord Bao, and saw the young man standing in front of him just now.

The white cat, which the four eunuchs failed to catch up with earlier, was lying quietly in his arms, looking at him with two crystal eyes, one yellow and one green.

"Guard Zhan." The boy's voice was also very clear and pleasant.

Zhan Zhao could not help but smile slightly, remembering what the emperor said just now, knowing that this person is the little prince, so he said: "Little prince."

However, after saying this, a blush appeared on the face of the young prince opposite.

It must have been in a hurry just now, Zhan Zhao thought to himself.

"Ahem." The emperor coughed twice.

The little prince seemed to have reacted suddenly, turned his head and greeted Mr. Bao again.

Master Bao also said: "Little Prince."

It's just that from Zhan Zhao's ears, Master Bao's voice is much softer than talking to him.

"The martial arts exhibition guards are highly skilled, but it's a pity that I only watched a short section just now." The little prince smiled, "With you here, Lord Bao must be even more powerful."

Zhan Zhao said: "Thank you for the compliment, my lord, Zhan is only a martial artist, so I really can't afford it."

The little prince wanted to say something, but the emperor's face darkened at this moment, and he said: "I still have to criticize the papers, so you go away."

"Abiding by the order." Master Bao showed no expression on his face, he turned around and was about to take Zhan Zhao to leave.

Zhan Zhao followed Lord Bao, and could vaguely hear two lines of dialogue between the emperor and the little prince.

"Why did you sneak out again, does your concubine know?"

"Father." The little prince made a long tone.

It's just that Mr. Bao walked quickly, Zhan Zhao followed behind him, and couldn't hear anything.

This little prince is Zhao Bijia, the princess of Zhenguo who disguised herself as a woman.

She was in the palace just now and heard a commotion outside, she heard that someone was showing martial arts in Yaowu Tower, after a little inquiring, she heard the word Zhan Zhao, she immediately changed into men's clothes and ran out.

Seeing you this way...

Xu Shi ran too fast just now, and now his heart is still pounding.

Zhao Bijia couldn't help but looked back at the tall and straight figure, thinking of his smile just now, but her face burned even more.

Zhan Zhao.

Emperor Renzong saw his daughter's appearance, and thought that she was going to be married in two years, and the selection of a son-in-law was about to start, so he couldn't help but sighed, turned around, and said, "I'm going to see your mother concubine."

"Father won't approve the papers?" Zhao Bijia asked nonchalantly.

The emperor coughed again, "Let me do everything, what do I want the minister to do."

Zhao Bijia nodded, thinking about the space for the two of them to get along with the concubine mother and the emperor, and said: "I'll go to the imperial garden."

The emperor was very satisfied with his daughter's wit and interest, and said: "At your age, you should be more active. When the weather gets colder, I will take you to ride horses."

The father and daughter separated at the intersection.

Zhao Bijia went to the Imperial Garden.

There is no heavy industry, no smog, and the air quality index will never exceed [-], which is one of the biggest benefits of crossing.

Zhao Bijia had just walked around the Imperial Garden for a short time when she heard an exclamation in front of her, and then two panic-stricken maids came stumbling across the alley.

"Princess!"

Seeing Zhao Bijia, the two palace maids knelt down anxiously, gasping for breath as they hurriedly said: "Ahead...a palace maid died under the Jinshui Bridge in front!"

Zhao Bijia's face was fixed, and she immediately woke up from the beauty in her mind, and said calmly: "Send someone to surround the place, don't ask irrelevant people to wait in." After she finished speaking, she pointed to the eunuch beside her, and said, "Go ask father Eunuch Wu, who is next to the emperor, is here, and the father is in the palace of the mother and concubine."

Then she raised her foot and wanted to go over to have a look.

The two maids who reported the letter just now hurriedly stopped him and said: "I'm afraid I will offend the princess, so the princess should not go."

Zhao Bijia still walked forward.

Jinshui Bridge is a scene in the Imperial Garden. It is said to be a bridge, but there is only a small stream under the bridge, and the water depth is no more than half the height of a person. It is absolutely impossible to drown.

Looking from a distance, Zhao Bijia saw a maid lying face down on the small embankment under the bridge. She was not very tall, she looked only thirteen or fourteen years old, and she was dressed as a maid of honor in the palace.

A eunuch has already gone up and turned it over.

"Ah!" There was another exclamation.

The little palace maid's complexion had turned iron blue, she was utterly dead.There were four deep wounds on his cheeks, and dark red blood clotted around.

Like a cat scratched it?

Zhao Bijia subconsciously picked up the cat's paw and took a look.

A scar with such a wide distance... how big a cat can be to scratch it.

Just as Zhao Bijia was thinking about it, Eunuch Wu ran up to her and stopped, panting all the way.

"It's fine for the princess to see this kind of dirty thing. If the princess continues to look at it, Your Majesty will have to kill the old slave!"

Zhao Bijia nodded, and said: "I'm just watching from a distance, so that they don't move things in a hurry. It's good that the father-in-law is here." She pointed and said: "Those two are the first to see."

Eunuch Wu bent his waist and said, "Thank you, Princess." Then he called for people to bring up the dead bodies from the river bank, and asked people to go to the palaces to count the manpower, and to call the eunuch who guarded the imperial garden.

Zhao Bijia felt relieved when he heard that his arrangements were orderly, and went back to the palace with the cat in her arms.
