Consort Zhanzhao

Zhao Bijia has already gone to the Chaoshou verandah outside, there are two side halls on the left and right of the palace where the banquet is held, Li Huailu Bacheng went to one of them to change clothes.

So Zhao Bijia, who was waiting to watch the fun, didn't go anywhere else. She walked slowly along the veranda, stopping from time to time to look at the patterns on the top and the carvings on the railings. It seemed that the room was too stuffy, so she came out to breathe.

"How can my father tell him how to deal with him?" Zhao Bijia asked in a low voice, her voice was very excited. She had been pretending for a month, and now she is finally going to close the net. Her emperor father did it himself, can you not be excited!

Zhan Zhao didn't even lower his head, and his voice was as low as squeezed out from between his teeth, "This subordinate doesn't know."

Zhao Bijia was about to ask what do you know, Zhan Zhao said again: "Your Majesty only ordered his subordinates to find an opportunity to bring the princess out."

Zhao Bijia frowned, "Did I come out too soon? What if my father suspects you?"

There was no sound for a long time.

"And Master Bao?"

Yes, the scope of this influence can be wider.

Zhao Bijia didn't speak anymore, the sky outside was already dark, the moon was bright and the stars were few and far between, and there was a breeze blowing, accompanied by beauties... Zhao Bijia sighed, it's a pity that she couldn't enjoy it.

In the main hall, Emperor Renzong's wine glass fell on the ground, and a court lady immediately came up to clean it up, but there was wine in the wine glass, and after hitting the glass, under the fumigation of the earth dragon, the smell of the wine became more and more rapid.

Renzong seemed to be smoked, frowned slightly, got up and glanced at the maid who was kneeling on the ground to pack her things, "I'm going out for a walk."

Concubine Zhang Guifei's heart has never been in her stomach this night. For example, she was hanging in mid-air at the beginning. Seeing Li Huailu's repeated provocations, her heart reached her throat. Now the emperor said that she wanted to go out. If she hadn't kept her mouth shut, she would I'm afraid my heart will jump out.

She is worried about her daughter! ! !Wandering around outside with Zhan Zhao, in case someone sees something...

Emperor Renzong was attracted by the movement made by his beloved concubine who suddenly got up, but he just raised his eyes and saw her worried forehead, subconsciously smiled, and nodded slightly to comfort her.

Concubine Zhang was even more worried...

However, the interaction between the two had other meanings in Empress Cao's eyes.

Emperor Renzong hadn't paid much attention to her, and she was not too young, so she couldn't compete with the young beauties who had just entered the palace—of course, Renzong didn't pay much attention to women's sex, and didn't pay much attention to newcomers. Also can't compete with the "old and decrepit" Concubine Zhang.

Seeing that Concubine Zhang's son became the crown prince, and Concubine Zhang's daughter got another meaningful title, and even Her Majesty didn't ask her to hold a banquet, Empress Cao felt a sense of crisis in her heart.

This is a family feast!In an ordinary wealthy family, if the mistress can't even handle the family banquet, then the next step... Empress Cao shuddered. Could she also become a stepping stone for Concubine Zhang Gui?

Therefore, seeing that Concubine Zhang Guifei dared to flirt with the emperor in front of her, and didn't save her any face, Empress Cao also stood up suddenly.

She was sitting next to the emperor, but such a big movement suddenly frightened the emperor.

"Is it okay for my concubine to accompany His Majesty out for a walk?" Empress Cao immediately lowered her head and said gently.

Renzong was looking for an excuse to go out, and the more people the better, he nodded immediately and extended his hand to the queen, "Let's go."

Empress Cao couldn't help but glance at Concubine Zhang proudly, but in Concubine Zhang's eyes she saw... worry, pity?

Empress Cao's eyes widened for a moment, but since His Majesty was still by her side, she dared not do anything, so she could only turn her head away from looking at her.

Renzong took two steps forward, and suddenly looked back at Concubine Zhang, "Aifei is also here."

Zhang Guifei said yes when she arrived.

Renzong raised his voice again, and said to the large group of concubines and relatives who had already focused their attention because of him getting up: "Come out to get some air, let them change to new noodles, come back and let's have tea. "

Concubine Zhang became more and more worried. She turned her head to look at this group of no less than 60 or [-] clan members... How big are you going to do, Your Majesty...

When Emperor Renzong came out, Zhao Bijia was half leaning on the railing, looking around boredly, "Do you mean the left or the right? Let's make a bet?"

"Your Majesty is down."

In fact, there is no need to remind, Zhao Bijia also heard it, there was a commotion behind, and there were all heads in Wuyang Wuyang.

Zhao Bijia smiled and went towards her emperor father.

"I support you?"

Renzong was still holding Zhao Xuan by his hand. As a teenager who was only eleven or twelve years old, it was time for him to sleep at this point. However, as the Chinese New Year was approaching, there was no one to supervise him, but it was inevitable that he was still sleepy. Renzong yawned when he was talking to Zhao Bijia.

"I don't need your help, it's not that I can't see the way." Although he refused Zhao Bijia's support, he still let her come to his side. Renzong looked at her, and suddenly said: "It seems to have grown taller."

Zhao Bijia was immediately happy, which was probably what she liked to hear more.

Zhao Bijia was chatting with her emperor father about this kind of boring topic with no content, which was completely to pass the time, but she still thought about her father's going to the university, so she inevitably brought some points out of her actions, for example, she couldn't stop going to Look at the side hall.

Renzong's heart sank, and he stared at Zhan Zhao in the distance. He saw Zhan Zhao's serious face, and shook his head slightly at him. He didn't know what Renzong had imagined, and his disgust towards Li Huailu became more and more intense.

All of a sudden, Zhao Bijia heard a sound like water basins, tables, chairs and benches falling to the ground from the side hall on the right, and there were faint shouts. She subconsciously turned her head away, and even forgot Renzong's question.

Although it was not intentional, although it was out of curiosity, but I have to say... Renzong put all the blame on Li Huailu.

Then...Zhao Bijia saw four people running out of a group from the side hall.

At the front is Li Huailu in disheveled clothes, a young eunuch in the middle, and two maids in the back, who are not very old.

Zhao Bijia stared dumbfounded at Li Huailu being chased by the eunuch, all the way to the main hall, then somehow his left foot tripped over his right foot, fell to the ground with a plop, and was kicked on the stomach by the eunuch behind him.

"Bold!" Princess Wanshou's sharp voice sounded, and the eunuch hesitated for a moment, but was escaped by Li Huailu. He stumbled towards Princess Wanshou and knelt at the princess's feet, but he hadn't spoken yet. She was kicked hard.

Not to mention what the matter is, Li Huailu is so disheveled, and being chased and beaten by eunuchs... It's really embarrassing.

Zhao Bijia couldn't bear to look directly at her, she turned her head slightly and asked Zhao Xuan, "Are you sleepy?"

Needless to say, in Renzong's eyes, her performance is escaping from reality.

Renzong coughed, and said in a very dignified voice, "What's going on!"

Princess Wanshou kicked over again, "Why don't you explain it to Your Majesty!"

The court ladies and eunuchs who came out after Li Huailu did not flinch, and knelt down in front of His Majesty together. Zhao Bijia looked at them with strange eyes. She didn't know where her father found it. Deep enough.

Zhao Bijia took another look at Li Huailu, there were two bloody gashes on his face, needless to say, he must have been caught by the maid, and there was a footprint on his body, which must have been kicked by the eunuch.

Speaking of which...Zhao Bijia took a careful look at her father, maids of honor can't keep their fingernails...they can dig out such deep blood marks on people's faces, I'm afraid they started preparations a month ago...

Zhao Bijia shuddered.

Renzong glanced at her, and Zhao Bijia smiled flatteringly, but this smile did not attract her father's concern as usual, but instead made her father even more angry, "Say! Everyone is dumb."

Zhao Bijia was taken aback for a moment, then subconsciously turned to look at her own mother.Concubine Zhang Guifei has a worried face, but she also has a faint smile, girl... whatever you do now, your father will think it is pleading for that kid on the ground...

Li Huailu knelt and moved forward, his body seemed to be still shaking, and he didn't know whether he was frightened or excited, and he said, "These people are crazy! My clothes are stained with wine, they call I took off my coat, washed it with water, and then took a charcoal basin to grill it, the room was hot, and I was a little sleepy, and then they came up and scratched my face!"

Li Huailu leaned his neck forward, and stretched out his hand, only then did Zhao Bijia see blood marks not only on his face, but also on his hands.

"After that, the two court ladies called someone again, and the three of them beat me together, Your Majesty!" Li Huailu almost burst into tears when he said that he was sad, and kowtowed to Renzong.

Zhao Bijia was full of shit, and was stunned, thinking that Li Huailu was really going to die this time, didn't he see the contempt and "I don't believe it" on the faces of the onlookers?

After he finished speaking, the two maids over there also started to cry, and they cried more miserable than him, and they were more beautiful, "How dare you do what you don't want to be, and beat you instead!"

Just when Zhao Bijia was interested in listening to the story from another angle, Princess Wanshou came out to disrupt the situation again. She kicked Li Huailu again, and shouted sharply: "Your Majesty, where are you and me?"

This is what Li Huailu claimed just now. In fact, Emperor Renzong was not so strict, but being disturbed by Princess Wanshou, the rhythm of the two crying maids was disrupted.

A trace of delay flashed in Renzong's eyes.

Zhao Bijia still has the time to wink at her mother and concubine. After tonight, the Longevity Princess will not come out for at least a year. Are you happy?

Concubine Zhang Gui was naturally happy, she even smiled at Zhao Bijia, and quickly listened carefully, carefully your father found out.

"You two! What are you doing grabbing his face!" Renzong sternly said, his stern voice was different from that of Princess Wanshou just now.

Princess Wanshou's voice sounded a bit nonsense, but she was not as confident as Renzong.

The two court ladies looked at each other, kowtowed to Emperor Renzong, and said while sobbing: "Your Majesty, it was indeed as this young man said at the beginning, but later... this young man will be dishonest if his clothes are baked. Say Let us two sisters serve him."

Although the words were cryptic, none of the people present could not understand, and there was no one who did not believe it.

Compared with the palace ladies and eunuchs going crazy together, this version of courtship and eunuchs being beaten is more convincing.

Zhao Bijia looked at Li Huailu and smiled smugly. Her father really made a big move every time he made a move, molesting the court ladies... Strictly speaking, the court ladies are the emperor's women.

Zhao Bijia is very satisfied, but she still doesn't know that there are surprises ahead.

Emperor Renzong glanced at Zhao Bijia, and found that she was still looking at Li Huailu, and frowned. Could it be that what he said was not straightforward?Renzong coughed.

The two palace maids got the signal and suddenly burst into tears, "This son said that he is being looked after by a nobleman, and that His Majesty has taken a fancy to him, and that he will become the princess in the future! If we two take good care of him, he will be able to get us out of the palace." Go, our sisters refused, so he came and pulled our clothes, his mouth was full of stupid words, and his hands were gesturing at people's vital points. We swore to the death and scratched his face while struggling."

Now everyone's eyes are on Princess Longevity, the noble person inside...

Princess Wanshou has lived for five or 60 years, and she has never been so ashamed. She was so angry that her face was flushed, she was so dizzy that she almost fainted, she gritted her teeth and couldn't even speak.

There is one more embarrassing person left...that is Ming Yi, if these words are spread today...the princess who said "I will be the princess in the future" will have no one else besides her.

Even if everyone can see that Li Huailu is after Zhao Bijia!But who made her go to war vigorously in front of her for two or three months without any results.

Concubine Miao also wanted to understand this truth, she held Ming Yi's hand tightly, trying not to faint.Concubine Miao looked at Zhao Bijia who was standing beside the emperor, she had to think of a way to get the dirty water out!

"You nonsense!" Li Huailu shouted.

The emperor winked, Wu Chengye went up and patted him on the shoulder, Li Huailu immediately let out a scream, tears streaming down his face, he didn't even have the strength to speak.

Emperor Renzong's eyes moved to the eunuch again.

"What's the matter with you?"

The eunuch was much calmer than the two maids, and there was nothing else except a little disdain in his tone, "Our family heard a noise in the room inside, so we went in and took a look, only to see that Mr. Li had thrown one person on the bed , we stretched our hands in, so our family went up and pulled the two of them apart, let the two maids go out, and left our family to wait on Mr. Li in the house."

Speaking of this, the eunuch glared at Li Huailu again, "I don't know that Mr. Li is not honest, and he came to tear our family's clothes!" Then, the eunuch waved his fist and threatened: "Our family is also yours! I can touch it!"

Someone behind couldn't help laughing out loud.

Li Huailu was ashamed and pained, and forced himself to speak: "Nonsense! You are framing the blame!"

The eunuch snorted and ignored him.

Li Huailu wanted to speak again, but Renzong snorted and shouted, "Shut up, everyone!"

Wu Chengye moved the chair over and let the emperor sit down.

Renzong closed his eyes, as if he was thinking about how to deal with this matter.

Although none of the previous victims spoke, the sobbing voices of the two palace maids continued, Li Huailu's cry of pain also sounded from time to time, and there were whispers from the clan members behind.

But Zhao Bijia felt... her father was trying to show her that Li Huailu was a shameless person with chaotic private life and arrogance.

Apart from the possibility of framing the first one, Zhao Bijia actually agrees with the latter ones. After all, she saw Li Huailu on the Qinhuai River, so he was talking frivolously at that time.

Besides, there are malicious people chasing her after her.

Zhao Bijia looked at Li Huailu who was kneeling on the ground and weeping silently, and there were a few footprints on his body. Although he was a bit useless when he was chased and beaten by the eunuch, he was not wronged at all.

At this time, eunuchs were not as common as later generations, and there were less than 300 eunuchs in the palace, which was a rare species to some extent.

What's more, eunuchs have other purposes besides serving in the harem.

The army at this time must have eunuchs as supervisors.Think about an eunuch who can hold back the commander of an army and lead the army to fight when necessary, not to mention both civil and military skills, but he must be able to fight better than this little weak chicken.

Zhao Bijia suddenly felt a little sympathetic to Li Huailu.

The court lady who couldn't beg for sex was caught and her face was broken, and the eunuch for begging for pleasure was beaten up. This... At least in Zhao Bijia's impression, it is No. 1 throughout the ages.

Such violent and intense gossip will probably accompany him throughout his life...

Zhao Bijia suddenly gasped, silently worried that Zhan Zhao was coming...

With the cold wind blowing outside for a long time, Zhao Bijia couldn't help feeling a little cold, and subconsciously shrank back to Concubine Zhang. Emperor Renzong seemed a little satisfied with her performance.

He opened his mouth and said, "You two..." He looked at the palace maid who was sobbing on the ground from time to time, "Send it to the monastery to practice Taoism."

"As for you," Renzong's eyes fell on the eunuch again, "I remember that Jiang Dongyi is also old, you go to serve him by his side."

Instead of panicking, the eunuch kowtowed to Emperor Renzong with joy, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"

There is no other reason. Jiang Dongyi is the supervisor of the army guarding the land bordering Xixia and Song Dynasty. This is not a punishment, but a promotion.

Princess Wanshou's face turned gray, she closed her eyes and dared not look any more, her hands trembled slightly, and she still had the urge to lift them up, as if she wanted to cover her ears and not listen.

"You!" Emperor Renzong started to roar at Li Huailu, "For the sake of Princess Wanshou, get the hell out of Bianliang!"

After Emperor Renzong's punishment was spoken out, Zhao Bijia breathed a sigh of relief, and it was finally over.

This whole-body blow, from physical to psychological, made her very, very, special, very satisfied! ! !

Concubine Zhang Guifei grabbed her hand, signaled her to stop talking, and whispered to Renzong, "Xuan'er should go to sleep."

Hearing the crown prince's name, Renzong smiled, his voice softened a bit, and he said, "That's it, you guys should go your separate ways."

Although it was outside, Zhao Bijia still heard the sound of venting one after another, feeling a little bit emotional, and seemed a little satisfied?

Concubine Zhang Guifei pulled her forward, Zhao Bijia couldn't help but glance back, Yang and An had already followed, Zhan Zhao was still standing not far away, watching her silently.

I really want to say something else... What should I do if I want to satirize Li Huailu.

Concubine Zhang pulled her away, Zhao Bijia hurriedly turned her head, and saw Renzong's scrutinizing gaze when she turned her head, Zhao Bijia was pretending, she was not sad at all, but full of deep joy, she smiled at her father completely by instinct laugh.

Renzong gasped, "Three generations are not allowed to be officials, and five generations are not allowed to take imperial examinations!"

So...the last cut was really not intentional...

It didn't take long for everyone to leave, even the two maids and eunuchs were gone, but before leaving, they all went to Li Huailu's side and said, "It's up to you!"

It is self-evident what it means.

In a blink of an eye, only the Longevity Princess, Li Huailu, guards and eunuchs were left in front of the empty hall.

Li Huailu struggled to get up, but as soon as he stood up straight, Princess Wanshou slapped him hard on the face, causing him to fall down again immediately.

"you you you……"

The three "you" of Princess Wanshou became less and less imposing, and finally they seemed to have lost their momentum.After a while, she stepped forward and kicked Li Huailu again, saying viciously: "Your Majesty tells you to get out of Bianliang! Don't forget!"

Zhao Bijia was dragged by Concubine Zhang, and followed Renzong to the harem, followed by two pairs of mother and daughter, Concubine Miao and Ming Yi.

When Zhao Bijia was watching the play just now, Concubine Miao had already made up her mind, no matter what, she had to pour this water on Zhao Bijia first, her Ming Yi had obviously suffered it for others, a good daughter, no matter what, she could not suffer this kind of grievance.

Emperor Renzong turned his head suddenly, and Zhao Bijia almost ran into him without paying attention.

Renzong saw that she was still in such a ignorant state, his heart softened all of a sudden, and said: "Tired? Go to sleep in your mother's palace at night."

Zhao Bijia hummed, and Renzong looked around at the concubines in the palace, especially Concubine Miao. Renzong's eyes fell on her for a long time, and said: "What happened tonight...no one can spread it!"

Concubine Miao shuddered, and following everyone's approval, she grabbed her daughter and walked away quietly.

Zhao Bijia followed Concubine Zhang to Fenglan Palace. Concubine Zhang thought she was sleepy seeing her dazed look, and said softly, "Wash your face first."

Unexpectedly, Zhao Bijia suddenly raised her head, and said a little sadly: "Mother Concubine, being messed up by my father...Can I still marry..."

Concubine Zhang Gui was stunned, and said after a long while: "Probably... Zhan Zhao's kung fu is pretty good, so he shouldn't fall into the trap so easily..."
