Dafu stared, a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes.
"But, there was one time when I was in Fengrun County!"
Anticipating what he was going to say about his near defeat, Zhao Hengrui jumped up, stepped forward, and tightly covered Dafu's mouth.
"No, no, Dafu, it must be that you just came to the capital and have forgotten everything in the past!"
Zhao Hengrui smiled awkwardly, and when no one was paying attention, he lowered his head and threatened Dafu in his ear, "Dafu, if you don't tell me about my embarrassing story, I will take you out to play and eat the best snacks in the capital soon!"
"
The cold words echoed in Dafu's ears, and he stopped what he was saying.
"One time in Fengrun County, Uncle Zhao gave in to me, and I won!"
It was obvious that they were cheating. Su Xiao and Zhao Si'er looked at each other and laughed it off.
A bright smile spread across his face, and in response to the warm sunshine, Zhao Hengrui's eyes were blinded for a moment, and he froze in place.
He remembered again that when he was in Fengrun County, he caught a glimpse of the woman looking back and smiling in that restaurant, and it was hard to forget. It was a pity that now, they could no longer do it.
Zhao Hengrui smiled bitterly, holding Dafu's hand and trying his best to hide the expression on his face.
"Okay, we simple kids won't stay here any longer and will go out to play first!"
Zhao Hengrui raised his hand and held Xiaofu in his arms, and they walked out of the door leisurely.
Behind him, Su Xiao looked at his figure and smiled softly in his heart.
It seems that in ancient times, it was not all what those feudal women feared. There were many men rushing to take care of their children.
In front of him, Zhao Si'er suddenly turned around, with a bit of intensity in his eyes that he had never seen when facing Zhao Hengrui.
"Miss Su, this princess has heard of your contribution. Having you here is a blessing to our court!"
In and out of words, he didn't regard her as his royal sister-in-law at all, and there was still a hint of suppression due to her status.
Su Xiao didn't care about this at all. As a healthy and self-reliant woman in the new era, she would certainly not be suppressed by such power, especially after she had made meritorious deeds.
"Humph, it is indeed the blessing of the dynasty. If it weren't for me, I don't know if there would be anyone alive in the capital now!"
This was the first time Zhao Si'er had seen this arrogant answer, and he was so ungrateful and rude.
For a moment, I was stunned on the spot, not knowing what to say.
Su Xiao looked at her and turned her eyes faintly.
"The princess is also a hero among women. I have heard about the things she did in the past. She takes revenge when she wants to, without procrastinating or feeling aggrieved. It is really enjoyable!"
Hearing this, Zhao Si'er was really stunned. She did such a thing and countless people were criticizing her. This was the first time I heard that Su Xiao had such an opinion.
There was a smile in Su Xiao's eyes, and she stared at the person in front of her without any shame.
In the original novel, there is not much emphasis on such a characterful and flesh-and-blood woman, otherwise she must be a loyal fan of hers.
"You, you."
Zhao Si'er was really shocked by the person in front of her. She had never seen such a person with such a personality. It seemed that she didn't care about etiquette and dignity at all. She also seemed to be completely out of touch with this dynasty and aloof.
Not very real.
"Well, okay, let's not talk about this anymore. The princess remembers to bring out her consort. He can be regarded as an old acquaintance. Let's have a meal together!"
After saying that, Su Xiao stopped talking to the person in front of him, just lifted his legs and left.
Behind him, Zhao Sier looked stunned.
In the study, Song Zeyi stood in front of Zhao Zhaowu, his eyes full of coldness and restraint.
"I have already fulfilled my promise to your majesty. I don't know when your majesty's promise to my ministers will be fulfilled!"
Zhao Zhaowu was sitting at his desk, his pale eyes full of coldness.
"I didn't expect you to be so anxious, but Mr. Song actually cares so much about a woman!"
Zhao Zhaowu didn't seem to care much, and continued to write the imperial edict in his hand with his eyes lowered.
On the gold-threaded cloth, there was written an order to promote Song Zeyi to the rank of chief minister.
Song Zeyi took it all in his eyes, but his expression remained calm.
"Your Majesty, you have promised things to others, and you should keep them true!"
Zhao Zhaowu's heart sank. When he was in Shanxi earlier, he had almost no hesitation in agreeing to Song Zeyi.
But now that I have returned to the capital, and when it is time to fulfill my promise, I feel a bit reluctant to let him go.
"Of course I will do what I say, but this Su Xiao was originally my imperial concubine, oh, no, the queen, and now I have given it to you like this. Her name is not right, and her words are not right."
After saying these two words calmly, Song Zeyi instantly narrowed his eyes coldly.
"Your Majesty's previous Crown Princess was able to suffer from a terminal illness for no apparent reason. Presumably, this matter was not a difficult matter."
Zhao Zhaowu suddenly raised his eyes and stared at the person in front of him.
A slight smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Song Zeyi, I am the emperor and the master of this country. If I want a woman, do you think I can't get it?"
Those two cold words, with endless threats, forced Song Zeyi to laugh out loud.
"Your Majesty may not know me very well. I am different from the Fifth Prince. I have been free and easy since I was a child, and there are no system or hierarchy constraints. I am now willing to abide by etiquette and respect, because I have no other intentions or desires in my heart.
, but if His Majesty breaks his word, then I don’t know what I will do!”
Naked threats and madness spread between the two of them, as if the sky had turned dark.
"What are you doing?"
Outside, Su Xiao walked in happily.
The tense atmosphere between the two people immediately subsided. The two people turned their heads at the same time, neither of them looking at the other.
Su Xiao looked at the two of them speechlessly, and stared helplessly.
Ever since she came back from Shanxi City, she had always felt that these two men were sneaky and very abnormal.
It's quite boring for two grown men to do all these things all day long, and to do evil in secret.
"Your Majesty, I wonder if your former Crown Princess can recover from her illness now?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Zhaowu's cold eyes stared dimly at the person in front of him.
"Why are you asking this?"
Su Xiao has no stage fright at all, "After all, I came to the capital just for this kind of thing, and now I can't just end up without a problem!"
With this calm look, it seems that he doesn't take the identity he still has attached to him seriously at all.
Zhao Zhaowu's heart sank for a moment.
With a bit of unhappiness in his heart, Zhao Zhaowu glanced to the side and uttered a few words coldly.
