Consort Zhanzhao

Zhao Bijia took a look at Li Huailu openly and aboveboard.

There was no trace of surprise on Li Huailu's face, although when Zhao Bijia came in, he was very shocked, and even accidentally knocked over the wine glass in his hand.

But it was too deliberate, how could someone miss a wine glass while holding it with three fingers?To remove the completely impossible factor of disease, he did it entirely on purpose.

So on the way...he already knew Zhao Bijia's identity. He knew that the girl Zhao he met on the Qinhuai River was Emperor Renzong's favorite princess.

Zhao Bijia, who can keep prosperity for at least three generations.

Li Huailu's status in the imperial palace to participate in the banquet of the royal family is actually a bit unqualified, so since he came in, he has been watching all directions and listening to all directions. Naturally, he noticed that Zhao Bijia's eyes fell on him, and he seemed to be a little curious .

Li Huailu's self-confidence instantly swelled to the sky. He raised his wine glass and smiled at Zhao Bijia, "I toast the princess."

Li Huailu thought that this posture was very chic, and if he put aside his preconceived likes and dislikes, this posture was indeed chic.After all, Li Huailu grew up well-clothed and well-fed, and he looked very similar to the first son-in-law, and his appearance could even be described as handsome.

But... Renzong felt that he was a dandy who wanted to abduct his daughter. Concubine Zhang looked at everything related to Princess Wanshou, from people to things, she was not pleasing to the eye, let alone Zhao Bijia.

Especially when she figured out that the so-called chance encounter on the road was probably a trick set by him, and at that time she was so stupid and sweet that she really thought it was a chance encounter, she became more and more angry in her heart, wishing to grab the wine glass and throw it on his face.

It's just that Zhao Bijia is still in the character set of the ignorant girl, so how to respond to this is particular.Zhao Bijia felt a little aggrieved that she couldn't kill the enemy quickly, and even thought that it would have been better if she had told her father directly, but now, in order to let her father take action, so that he has no chance to stand up, Still have to endure.

Zhao Bijia hesitated, her performance had different meanings in the eyes of different people, Renzong held the wine glass and sipped it lightly, the smile in the corner of his eyes disappeared without a trace.He glanced at his silent daughter again, thinking that it was not in vain to teach her, and she was still sensible.

In short, it was Li Huailu's fault!

Concubine Zhang was a little worried. She was the only one present besides Renzong who knew that His Majesty was going to attack Li Huailu today, but although she knew that His Majesty was going to do it, she didn't know how he would do it... This is scary, okay?

Li Huailu exchanged glances with Princess Wanshou, and the arc of Li Huailu's mouth widened again, and he said again: "I toast the princess."

This time the voice was louder than last time, and because everyone saw that someone was going to attack Princess Zhen Guo, they involuntarily stopped talking. The room was very quiet for a while, and almost everyone's eyes—even if they didn't dare to understand Come on, the corner of the eye is also on Zhao Bijia and Li Huailu.

"The princess is too young to drink alcohol."

Zhan Zhao's deep and steady voice sounded in the hall, making Zhao Bijia's heart beat involuntarily in sync with his.

Emperor Renzong's admiring eyes fell on Zhan Zhao, the bodyguard recommended by Bao Zheng!honest and reliable!Useful!

Zhao Bijia lowered her head and looked at the wine glass in her hand. At this moment, Zhan Zhao spoke again, "This subordinate is willing to drink this glass for the princess!"

Zhao Bijia was so excited by the sound from behind her ears that she almost trembled all over. She only felt that countless little claws scratched from the tip of her ears to her heart, and then came out of her heart to scratch all over her body.

She shivered one after another, the hairs on her body softened and hardened, standing up wave after wave like waves.

There was a smile on Renzong's proud face, and he was more and more satisfied looking at Zhan Zhao, and at the same time he gave Li Huailu a malicious look.

I see what you do!

Li Huailu's complexion is not very good-looking, anyway, the wine that was originally intended to hook up with a girl was robbed by a man who was taller, stronger, braver and manly than him, no one would have a good-looking complexion.

But this is just the beginning, Li Huailu smiled, and raised his glass to Zhan Zhao, "Guard Zhan, please. I heard that Guard Zhan has the title of Nan Xia above the rivers and lakes, and he was awarded the title of Royal Cat by His Majesty. You drink this glass of wine, Xiaosheng—do it first as a respect."

Zhao Bijia turned around and stuffed the wine into Zhan Zhao's hand. She was a little abnormal when she heard the word "Royal Cat". Everyone in the palace knew that she had a cat, and this cat was more than half the masters They all need to be expensive, and her emperor father also knows...

So does this title mean anything?

Or fate destined by God.

Zhao Bijia's hands trembled a little. When the wine glass was handed to him, he looked up involuntarily. Zhan Zhao's face was serious and high-spirited like never before. It seemed that after taking this glass of wine, he would be able to protect The whole world is the same.

With the help of the wine glass, Zhao Bijia's fingertips touched Zhan Zhao lightly, and they quickly scratched excitedly. There was an urge to do bad things in front of parents, brothers, relatives and friends in public, no one knew about it!

Zhan Zhao drank the wine in one gulp, a blush appeared on his cheeks, he didn't know if it was because of the wine or the red guard uniform, or because of the redness on Zhao Bijia's body.

Yang Hean took the wine glass ahead of Zhao Bijia, gave Zhan Zhao a warning look, put the glass a little far away, and turned to the maid who was serving, "Go and get another glass."

Zhao Bijia was still immersed in the excitement of touching his hand in public, when she suddenly remembered her mother...she had already confessed to her mother.

Zhao Bijia's head turned cold, and she glanced at Zhang Guifei.The distance seems to be a bit far away, maybe I couldn't see it clearly... After all, her mother is not old enough to be farsighted...

Well, I didn't see it clearly at first glance, Zhao Bijia took another look, and saw Concubine Zhang looking at her with a half-smile, as if to say, although I am not farsighted, I am not nearsighted either, your red face... ...It can't be because he bumped into you.

Zhao Bijia returned a look that was a little bit aggressive, it wasn't that he touched me, it was that I touched him.

Zhang Guifei looked away.

After this trial, Li Huailu seemed to have died down a bit.He sat obediently behind the queen mother, ate wine and food, and did not move for a long time.

For banquets in the palace, the dishes are naturally top-grade, and the taste is also very good, but Concubine Zhang Guifei can't eat much. She still has an unknown fear in her heart. She glances at the emperor from time to time, wishing to go up and pull his He shook his sleeve fiercely, "You did it! You tortured people to death!"

But in the eyes of the empress, Concubine Miao, Concubine Pang and a series of concubines in the emperor's harem, her sneaking glances at His Majesty over and over again, this is a flirt, this is a blatant seduction of the emperor.

It's just...the empress sighed, and endured it. Concubine Pang is in danger now, sitting far away, and there is no chance to speak, only Concubine Miao is the only one.

She gritted her teeth again and again, and finally couldn't help it.

"Sister, this person is getting old, it's better to be rich and healthy, you should eat more, it's His Majesty's wish."

Zhao Bijia woke up in a jerk, it was her own mother who made a special trip to find fault.

Concubine Zhang was a little distracted at this time, but after all these years of experience, she subconsciously said, "Just like you?"

Concubine Miao's eyes widened and she choked half to death.

Zhao Bijia couldn't hold back the corners of her mouth, okay, if she didn't lose her mind, her own mother would know how to tactfully stimulate others.

Concubine Zhang Gui also came to her senses, but she said everything, and when she was afraid of something, she looked at Concubine Miao very carefully, and said: "Sister said so."

Concubine Miao is the daughter of Renzong's nanny, she is only a few years younger than Renzong, and several years older than Concubine Zhang.

Concubine Miao felt that she didn't want to talk to her any more in the short term, so she turned her gaze to Zhao Bijia who was smiling at Concubine Zhang.

If you can't take care of Concubine Zhang, can't you also take care of this girl?Concubine Miao had another idea in her heart, she looked at Zhao Bijia's smiling face and said, "You are old too, so you don't have to be shy in front of these relatives, what do you like? I just happened to help my sister choose a son-in-law, By the way, I'll help you take a look."

Zhao Bijia hasn't refused yet, Concubine Zhang Guifei couldn't help it, of course she was a little worried, if she said something in front of the public, "Strong in martial arts, handsome in appearance" and so on, I don't know who to direct His Majesty's anger up.

"She's young." Zhang Guifei forcibly took the conversation away, "I'll keep her for another two years, and besides, the dowry isn't ready yet."

Concubine Miao gave her a blank look, and Ming Yi bit her bones until the bones in her mouth creaked. She still needs to prepare a dowry?Is it impossible to marry her as a dowry for half the Song Dynasty!

Concubine Miao pulled Zhao Bijia off, and Concubine Zhang did not show any weakness, and immediately pulled Ming Yi off.

"Speaking of which, I'm afraid it took you four or five months to read it all. The young people in Bianliang from 22 to [-] told you to read it once, and you haven't seen anything suitable yet?"

Ask Ming Yi to say that she really didn't like any of them, but she couldn't be so blunt in front of people. Just when she wanted to twitch and pretend to be shy and let the matter go, Concubine Zhang spoke again.

"Don't worry, you are a princess and the eldest daughter of His Majesty, so you have to choose carefully—"

Ming Yi heaved a sigh of relief, but Concubine Miao, who was familiar with Concubine Zhang's tricks, became wary for no reason, but Concubine Zhang's performance was also one of the best in the palace, Concubine Miao felt that something was wrong, and Concubine Zhang said the next sentence again .

"There are Jinling Mansion and Chengdu Mansion that Bianliang doesn't like. His Majesty just told me about the three great mansions of the Song Dynasty. They are outstanding, so they can always be chosen."

"No need—" Concubine Miao just said two words, and her voice was covered by Concubine Zhang again. This time, she was speaking to His Majesty, "How about asking Sister Miao to take charge of the overall situation when you choose your concubine later? Sister Miao... It’s an experience.”

Concubine Miao's face turned red, and Ming Yi's complexion was also not very good. No matter how you say it, choosing a son-in-law with such a big publicity and labor force, let alone a waste of money and food, even if it spreads out, it is not very good for the girl's reputation.

What's more, Concubine Zhang even compared this matter with the selection of concubines by the emperor.

For a moment, Zhao Bijia felt the warmth of being loved by her parents. Concubine Miao just asked a question that was neither painful nor itchy, and her own mother personally ended up tearing up the mother and daughter of Concubine Miao. Alas... there was something inexplicable. Refreshing.

Concubine Miao hurriedly came out, bowed to His Majesty, and said with red eyes: "I was thinking about it, but I don't really want her to go out, this... pick and choose and see that everyone is in the same suit." What's wrong, it's delayed until now."

Concubine Zhang Gui smiled and said, "It's okay, next year will be the imperial examination, and there will be freshly released No. [-] Scholar at No. [-]."

Concubine Miao gave her a hard look, Renzong coughed, and Concubine Zhang picked up the wine glass, indicating that she would not speak.

Zhao Bijia noticed that almost everyone's attention was on the two people who had been talking about it just now. Thinking that Zhan Zhao would stand all night, it hurt to see that he couldn't eat. in his hands.

"Don't be hungry."

Standing behind Zhao Bijia were Zhan Zhao and Yang He An. The pastry was stuffed in Zhan Zhao's hands, so Yang and An could see it clearly.

Seeing that Zhan Zhao was holding the snack in his hand without moving for a long time, Yang and An sneered coldly with malice, squeezed their throats and squeezed out a few words from between their teeth, "Why, why don't you ask the princess to pour you wine? "

Zhan Zhao glanced at him, still a little condescending, carefully wrapped up the snack!Pack it up!Pack it up!It was well received in the sleeve again!

Yang and An were so shocked that they couldn't close their mouths together in fright, they just stared at Zhan Zhao.

But Zhan Zhao still acted like nothing happened, as if what he just wrapped was not a crispy snack but a jade pendant.

Seeing Zhan Zhao like this, Yang Hean also felt that he seemed to be making a fuss over a molehill, he sighed, and turned his head around again, just thinking of the glass of wine that Zhan Zhao had just drank, he suddenly frowned again.

Drinking without eating..."You must be drunk..."

Alarm bells rang in Yang He'an's heart, thinking that if he was really drunk for a while, this...a heavy responsibility.

Zhan Zhao glanced at him as if nothing had happened, and seemed to say...you are jealous.

Yang and An took a deep breath, and said silently in their hearts, I already have experience, I accompany the princess to the banquet every year.I ate it before I came here, and I have another meal when I go back tonight, I'm so jealous!Starve him to death!

I read three articles silently in my heart, although I am not too angry, but for some reason, Yang and An felt a little sadness in their hearts, and this time when they saw Zhan Zhao again, they really felt a little jealous.

Zhan Zhao's back was very straight, and he didn't care when he noticed that Yang He'an's eyes were on him. He focused on Li Huailu, who dared to covet the princess, without letting up at all.
