Shuang Daqin comparison, no comparison, no harm

Now that the matter is known, Zhao Ze said: "You go back first, I will investigate this matter carefully.

Lin Zhizhou nodded, and said: "Tomorrow is the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, so the prince must be careful."

"Hu Ji will definitely try every means to induce that matter to you, and it is very likely that she will do other things."

Zhao Ze signaled that he knew.

In fact, he also has a headache. Tomorrow is the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet. As the eldest son of the emperor, he will definitely appear.

He still doesn't know what tricks Hu Ji has up his sleeve, and he can't use all precautions now, so he can only wait until tomorrow to adapt to the situation.

At this time, Zhao Ze regretted coming back from Jieshou so early. If he had known, he would have waited until the Queen Mother's birthday banquet was over.

At that time, my heart was like an arrow because I thought that I had suffered so much outside, so no matter what, I had to go back to Xianyang to have a good rest.

Compared with fighting and building rivers, he felt that the days of going to court on time every day in the imperial city of Xianyang and resting after returning home were really happy.

Early the next morning, when Zhao Ze came back from the imperial court, Lin Zhizhou brought over the gift that was going to the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet.

At this time, Zhao Ze was at Jieshou, so he prepared in advance.

The empress dowager believed in Buddhism, so what he gave were Buddhist beads strung from the East China Sea.

Early the next morning, the entire Xianyang Imperial Palace was busy going to the Xianshui Palace to buy food for today's birthday banquet.

The civil and military officials also prepared the gifts to be given, and they were sent to the Queen Mother's palace one after another.

Today is the birthday of Empress Dowager Zhao Ji, so no one dares to neglect it.

Even Ying Zheng put down the memorial in his hand to accompany Queen Mother Zhao Ji.

At noon, the birthday banquet officially began.

Officials of the third rank and above have the opportunity to enter the palace for banquets.

Officials below the third rank have no chance to enter the palace at all, and they send gifts directly from the Queen Mother to Zhao Ji.

As the eldest son of the emperor, Zhao Ze wanted to give gifts, but he met Li Si just after he came out of the queen mother's palace.

Li Si was still following Li Yan, apparently coming in to see the Queen Mother.

The last time Zhao Ze saw Li Yan was in Jinzhou, and it has been two months since Zhao Ze saw her.

Li Yan's eyes lit up when she saw him, but she still endured it, and after saluting Zhao Ze gently, she said: "See Your Highness, Your Highness should also come to give gifts to the Queen Mother~".

"I was also ordered by the Queen Mother to come in to see her today."

Li Yan is well-behaved, the queen mother felt happy when she saw her, so she often invited her into the palace.

Now the Empress Dowager's birthday is naturally indispensable.

Zhao Ze nodded in response, and said flatly, "Then you two go to give gifts first, and I'll go to the Saltwater Palace first."

He and Li Si briefly greeted each other, and they went directly to the Salt Water Palace after staggering the two of them.

Seeing Zhao Ze's attitude towards Li Yan, Li Si frowned obviously displeased.

Seeing Zhao Ze walking away, he looked at Li Yan who was facing each other with a sense of invincibility, "Our purpose today is to give gifts to Taihe, and everyone else has gone away.

Li Yan nodded, agreed in disappointment, and then followed Li Si to see the Queen Mother.

The Empress Dowager's Palace is very lively today, the maids and eunuchs are busy walking around.

Li Yan and Li Si did not directly send the Li in their hands to the queen mother's maid, but directly entered the queen mother's bedroom.

Seeing Li Yan at last, he greeted her happily and said, "Sit next to me."

Li Yan passed by obediently, the queen mother stared at her and said with a smile: "Li Yan will look better as she grows up, and now she is almost eighteen, and the marriage with her eldest grandson Zhao Ze should be brought forward."

Li Si at the bottom hurriedly said yes, and pointedly said: "The eldest son of the emperor sent a token of love to his courtiers a few days ago, and the days should be almost over."

The queen mother immediately became interested, ""My eldest grandson has never taken in a concubine so far, are you sure he wants to be a concubine?"

Zhao Ze only accepted those beauties and concubines in the palace, but he had never heard of any woman he had conferred the title of concubine and gave him a title.

Now he is also in his twenties, but has no children under his knees.

Hu Hai is only eighteen years old, but now he already has a son and a daughter.

The Queen Mother couldn't help worrying about Zhao Ze.

Now that Zhao Ze's marriage is approaching, he is almost speechless from ear to ear.

Li Yan was on the side, a faint shyness flashed between her brows.

Li Yan has admired Zhao Ze for a long time, and she is very happy to think that she can become Zhao Ze's only concubine.

Only Li Si was secretly sad in his heart.

I don't know if this matter will be possible. Judging from Zhao Ze's attitude just now, it is obvious that Li Yan posted it upside down.

He talked about this matter with the queen mother today, also in order to use the queen mother to supervise this matter.

After all, he has been with Zhao Ze for so long, and he can still understand Zhao Ze.

As long as it's something Zhao Ze doesn't want, even if he has agreed to it before, he may regret the marriage.

Here, after Zhao Ze delivered the gift to the Queen Mother, he was about to go directly to the Saltwater Palace for a banquet.

Although the banquet has not started yet, all civil and military officials have already been waiting in their seats, and now it will not be boring in the past.

Just halfway there, I met a eunuch who came forward and said: "See His Royal Highness, the eldest son of the emperor, the eighteenth prince has an invitation, and he is waiting in the pavilion beside him.".
