When Liu Mingzhi saw Zhang Tai getting up and walking directly to the pillars near the palace door, he smiled lightly and shook his head.
"Zhang Tai."
Zhang Tai suddenly stopped in his steps, turned around quickly and saluted.
"Wei Chen is here."
"There is no need to be nervous, today is not the day of the imperial meeting, so not all the civil and military officials have come to the palace to have an audience.
There are many futons in the hall now, so just take a seat nearby. If I want to ask you something later, it will be inconvenient for you to sit too far away.
Well, just sit in the third or fourth seat from the left."
Zhang Tai was stunned for a moment, then nodded excitedly and nervously.
"Yes, I will obey your orders."
After Zhang Tai stood up again, he walked slowly and slowly towards the position of the futon that Mr. Liu said, while looking at the armor on his body with a vague look, as if he was worried that something dirty would stain the futon.
Finally arriving in front of the futon, Zhang Tai gently glanced at the sitting postures of the cabinet officials opposite, and uneasily followed their example and knelt down.
Young Master Liu no longer paid attention to Zhang Tai's reaction. He stared dimly in the direction of the palace gate and remained silent for a long time before slowly standing up from the dragon chair.
"My lords, sir."
"I'm waiting here."
"I and you have been waiting for so long, and the time should be almost here.
My lords, please take a seat in the palace for a while, and I will also go to the harem to change into formal clothes."
"I obey your orders and will respectfully send you off to Your Majesty."
Liu Mingzhi glanced sideways at the palace gate, turned around and walked towards the back hall of Qinzheng Hall.
After Liu Mingzhi left, during the tea time, Xia Gongming and the other officials looked curiously at Zhang Tai, who was kneeling across from him.
"General Zhang, I am very polite to Mr. Xia."
Zhang Tai couldn't help but froze for a moment when he saw Xia Gongming looking at him with a kind smile. After he realized what he was doing, he directly clasped his fists and returned the salute.
"Zhang Tai, a humble official, is the chief minister of the cabinet."
"No courtesy, you and I are officials in the same court, so there is no need to be polite."
"Thank you, Mr. Chief Assistant."
"Little General Zhang, His Highness the Grand Prince and our Dalong Envoy have not yet entered the capital. It is really boring for us to wait silently in the palace. Could you please, General Zhang, give me and your colleagues a brief introduction to your mission to Tsarist Russia?"
?
Firstly, I am really curious, and secondly, it is to kill time, I wonder if the young general is willing?"
Zhang Tai hesitated for a moment, then glanced at Xia Gongming and the other powerful ministers in the court and nodded gently.
"Of course I'm willing to do it, as long as the Chief Assistant and all the other superior officials don't dislike the stupidity of his words."
"No, no, no, young general, just say it, I and your colleagues are all ears."
"Thank you so much, Lord Chief Assistant. It would be disrespectful to refuse such a humble position."
"Master Chief Assistant, all superior officials, the humble position started right after our mission left the Dalong Frontier, which was about the fourth year of Taiping..."
Naturally, Liu Mingzhi didn't know what happened after he left. After he left the Qinzheng Hall, he rushed all the way to the Guangming Hall where he usually rested.
"Here comes someone."
"My slave is here. Your Majesty, my slave Chun'er, is here."
"Chun'er, are you on duty in the Guangming Palace today?"
"Your Majesty, you are my slave."
"Okay, you go to the closet behind the palace and get my black dragon robe and change it for me."
"Your Majesty, please wait a moment."
Chun'er turned around and went to the back hall. Young Master Liu raised his arms and stretched himself. He poured a cup of sour plum soup to relieve the heat, sat on a chair and waited quietly.
"Your Majesty, the dragon robe is here, and my servant will change it for you."
Liu Mingzhi drank the remaining sour plum soup in the cup in one gulp, took a long breath of refreshing breath, put down the cup and stood up straight away and raised his arms.
Chun'er carefully placed the black dragon robe in her hand on the table of Shu brocade in the shop, walked to Liu Mingzhi with light steps, and gently began to undress him.
Young Master Liu silently smelled the faint virgin body fragrance on Chun'er's body, and slightly lowered his eyes to glance at the cute little beauty in front of him.
"Chun'er."
Chun'er, who was half-crouching to untie the jade belt from Liu Mingzhi's waist, immediately looked up, with a hint of doubt in her pretty eyes.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong? Did the slave move too hard?"
"Not heavy, not heavy, just right. Xiao Nizi, I asked Xiao Chengzi to transfer you to my side to serve me. Are you still used to living like this?"
Chun'er nodded without hesitation, looking up at Young Master Liu with admiration and gratitude in her pretty eyes.
"I'm used to it, of course I'm used to it. Compared with the busy days of traveling between various palaces, Chun'er now only has to serve His Majesty. I don't know how much easier it is.
If the slave is not used to such days, then the slave will be too ungrateful.
The sisters who lived with me before knew that I was now His Majesty’s personal maid, and I don’t know how much they envied me my blessing!
After living such a life that I never dreamed of before, is there any reason for Chun'er to be dissatisfied?"
Liu Mingzhi quietly looked at Chun'er's pretty and delicate appearance, and couldn't help but put down his big hand and gently patted Chun'er's perky buttocks.
"Xiao Nizi, your little mouth is so sweet!"
The private part of her daughter's house was hit, and Chun'er couldn't help but let out a cry, her pretty face flushed and she hurriedly lowered her head and continued to help Young Master Liu remove the jade belt from his waist.
"His Majesty."
Liu Mingzhi reacted immediately when he saw Chun'er's shy look. He laughed angrily a few times and did not do anything out of the ordinary.
"Xiao Nizi, you have served me for so long, and I have forgotten to ask you, how old are you this year?"
"Your Majesty, this slave is nineteen years old now."
"I am nineteen years old, and I am in my prime years!
It's a pity that I am already in my early forties this year. Compared with you, I am already old.
If I had seen a little beauty like you when I was young, I might have thrown you under my body.
It's a pity that I have reached such an age and it is no longer appropriate for me to harm you little girls in their prime."
Chun'er looked up at Mr. Liu with confused eyes, bit her red lips and put the jade belt in her hand on the table.
"Your Majesty, you are now in your prime. You are not old at all. It's just that you, the slave, don't have that blessing."
"Xiao Nizi, you still have a sweet mouth!"
Chun'er smiled shyly, reached out and picked up the dragon robe on the side and carefully served Young Master Liu to put it on.
"Master, little Liu Song wants to see you."
"Come in."
"yes."
"Master Qi, all the young ladies have entered the palace and are now heading towards the Palace of Light."
"I know, you go immediately and tell Yun'er and the other sisters, just ask Yun'er and the other sisters to come directly to the palace. The young master is waiting for them here."
"Yes, I will go immediately and inform all the young ladies that I will resign."
Liu Song stood up and exited the hall, and Chun'er also happened to serve Liu Mingzhi and put on the dragon robe neatly.
"Your Majesty, you are fully dressed."
After Liu Mingzhi put on the dragon robe, his aura naturally became majestic and majestic. Even though his tall figure was standing there casually, it gave people a sense of oppression.
Liu Mingzhi glanced lightly at the dragon robe on his body, and calmly glanced at the little palace maid Chun'er beside him.
"Chun'er."
"His Majesty?"
"You go and get my Pingtian crown. Today we, Dalong, have an honored guest entering the palace. It would be a bit unceremonious for me not to wear a crown."
