Seeing the two singing in harmony, Chu Wei couldn't help but sigh helplessly in his heart. In the end, even he himself couldn't help but laugh, "You girl, could it be that this is all based on your deductions?"
You've already expected that I won't agree?"
"Your Majesty is protected by the true dragon's purple energy. Not to mention that I dare not, even if I am bold, it cannot be blamed on Your Majesty." Zhang Qingjiu smiled slightly and blinked.
Chu Wei's words seemed harmless to humans and animals, but if she really blamed him, then it would never be possible to let the matter go.
If she dared to plot against the emperor, she might not think her life was too long.
When Chu Wei heard Zhang Qingjiu's words and saw her instantly obedient look, the trace of dissatisfaction in his heart gradually subsided. Finally, he sighed and said, "If that's the case, then you and Zhang Qingjiu will meet tomorrow."
Come with me, Xiang."
"Okay." Zhang Qingjiu raised the corners of his lips, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
"But don't think that this matter is that simple." Seeing Zhang Qing's calm and relaxed appearance, Chu Wei couldn't help but remind him, "Did you know that what you have to face in the court tomorrow is the long-term turmoil of everyone."
Well, even if you encounter the officials who want to remonstrate with you, are you prepared?"
"I understand." Zhang Qingjiu smiled slightly and nodded, "I promise that I will not embarrass Your Majesty, nor will I make His Majesty regret tonight's decision."
Seeing Zhang Qingjiu being so confident, Chu Wei couldn't help but laugh, "It seems that you already have a plan in mind. I'll see you show off your skills tomorrow. It's getting late today, so go back early."
After saying that, she waved her sleeves and robe, and Murong Qingwan also smiled and nodded, "Get some rest early."
Zhang Qingjiu looked at the smiling and kind lady in front of him. The passage of time seemed to have forgotten the years that had taken her away. He was silent for a while, and finally spoke again, "Your Majesty, I have another question.
.”
"Say." Chu Wei raised his eyebrows.
"If someone wants to do harm to the Queen, but has done meritorious service to the country, what will your Majesty do to that person?" Zhang Qingjiu narrowed his eyes, making Chu Wei frown suddenly.
An ominous premonition appeared in his heart, Chu Wei's eyes were deep, and when he was about to speak, Queen Murong Qingwan stepped in front of him, smiled and took Zhang Qingjiu's finger and said: "Good boy, how can anyone know this?"
It’s not good for me.”
Seeing the man in front of him wink at him vigorously, Zhang Qingjiu couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
However, just when she was about to give up on this question, Chu Wei suddenly stepped forward, held Murong Qingwan's cold fingers, looked at Zhang Qingjiu, and said word by word: "When I married the queen, I said no
It will make her feel wronged, if anyone dares to do anything, I will never tolerate it!"
His words are like an oath.
Zhang Qingjiu looked at Murong Qingwan's happy and worried expression, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "In this case, everything will be fine."
After that, he bowed and left.
In the wide palace wall, the small figure blended into the night, leaving only the sound of horse hooves...
When Zhang Qingjiu returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion was already closed.
Huo Wu looked at the empty door and couldn't help but frown. The Gaomen Courtyard was always guarded by servants, let alone the Prime Minister's Mansion. This scene was obviously targeted specifically.
Thinking of Zhang Tailiu's previous attitude, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, and Huo Wu made a show of getting off the carriage, "I'll call the door for you."
"No need." Unexpectedly, Zhang Qingjiu smiled slightly and took his arm, "Do you have any money on you?"
"You want to stay in a hotel?" Hearing what Zhang Qingjiu said, Huo Wu frowned fiercely and looked at her with a bit of surprise.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Zhang Qingjiu couldn't help but smile low when he met Huo Wu's gaze, "I've lived my life sleeping in the open, so why should I care about such a trivial matter."
If she is not allowed in, she will not come back.
Anyway, you have to pay it back.
Zhang Qingjiu spoke in a free and easy way, but it didn't sound that way to Huo Wu's ears. Thinking of her studying abroad for the past year, he thought he was talking about this past, and immediately said, "My villa
, it’s near the Prince’s Mansion, why don’t we arrange for you to stay there first?”
Although he didn't know how the people in front of him talked with His Majesty and the Queen tonight, in Huo Wu's heart, he already regarded Zhang Qingjiu as the savior of the Prince's Mansion.
Looking at Huo Wu's sincere eyes, Zhang Qingjiu smiled and shook his head, "No need to bother, or..."
"Miss Zhang, although it is outside the Prince's Mansion, it is not far from the courtyard where His Royal Highness sleeps. I have been there a few times occasionally, and I can still hear the sound of the Prince playing the piano." By some strange combination of circumstances, Huo Wu actually said this.
sentence.
So close? Zhang Qingjiu raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of a smile on his lips, and turned back to the carriage, "Then, I'll bother you."
Looking at Zhang Qingjiu's nimble figure, Huo Wu was stunned for a moment. Why did he feel like he was luring a wolf into the house?
Within a quarter of an hour, the carriage arrived at the unused yard. Huo Wu sent Zhang Qingjiu there, then exited and said, "Tomorrow, I will pick up Miss Zhang and take you back to your home."
"No need. If I don't go back tomorrow, you should be busy with your business." Zhang Qingjiu chuckled and blinked, "Don't forget what I told you. If it's too late, you won't be able to catch up."
As he spoke, he held out two fingers.
Although Huo Wu was full of doubts, she didn't have the courage to pursue him any further, so she could only sigh and let the coachman set up the carriage and go around from the backyard of the Prince's Mansion.
Just as he was about to go back to his room to rest, someone grabbed his arm and said, "You are finally back!"
Hearing that it was Feng Zhi's voice, Huo Wu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, brushed his hand away and said with a smile, "If you don't accompany His Highness, why did you come here to wait for me?"
"Hurry up and see His Highness with me. He has been looking for you for more than an hour. I can't stand it anymore." Feng Zhi's tone sounded anxious.
He knew what Huo Wu was going to do, but just because he knew, he was like an ant on a hot pot. After all, they did this together without telling His Highness the Crown Prince.
As soon as he saw Feng Zhi's appearance, Huo Wu knew that this matter was about to end, and I'm afraid that His Highness had already guessed it.
"How did you respond to this, Your Highness?" While walking towards Chu Lan's palace, Huo Wu thought about how to survive the night safely.
"What can I say? I didn't dare to look at him. When I thought about it, I remembered that you told me last month that your sister-in-law was already eight months pregnant, so I used this matter as a excuse."
Feng Zhi's expression was a little depressed at the moment. This matter was big or small. He was really forced to say this because he had no choice but to do so.
However, when he said these words, Huo Wu seemed to be struck by lightning. He suddenly froze in place and looked blankly in a certain direction in the air. It took him a long time to come back to his senses and said, "You, you
What was the reason you just said?"
"The child in your sister-in-law's belly is making trouble. Your brother is not here. You went home to check on it. You left in a hurry and forgot to report it." Feng Zhi smoothed things over now. He looked into Huo Wu's deep eyes and said,
I couldn't help feeling a little regretful, "Sorry, I really didn't mean to..."
"It's okay, let's go see His Highness first." Taking a deep breath, Huo Wu clenched her fists and walked towards Chu Lan's bedroom.
In the palace with swaying candlelight, Chu Lan was half leaning on the imperial concubine's couch in her middle coat, with a bit of casualness. When she heard Huo Wu come in to say hello, she glanced at him lightly, "Ting Feng Zhi said you have returned home?"
"Yes, my sister-in-law has given birth, and I quietly went back to take a look." Huo Wu suppressed the uneasiness in her heart and gritted her teeth.
When he heard what he said, Feng Zhi almost screamed. I said he was making a fuss, not giving birth! It was such a big difference. If he couldn't see the child by then, he might have to reincarnate.
ah!
At this moment, Chu Lan's momentum was too overwhelming. Feng Zhi struggled for a while, but finally did not dare to make a sound.
"Production?" Chu Lan narrowed his eyes, "Since it is such a big event, why don't you go back in an open and honest manner?"
"Father said, don't go back to the prime minister's house if you have nothing to do. My subordinates dare not disobey him." Huo Wu gritted his teeth.
Chu Lan raised her eyebrows, "Is everything okay now?"
"Yes, my subordinate secretly heard that my sister-in-law gave birth successfully and came back."
"How many children have you given birth to?" Chu Lan stood up from the imperial concubine's couch.
Huo Wu was startled, then immediately lowered his head, "Two!"
As he finished speaking, there seemed to be a moment of silence in the palace.
But soon, Chu Lan chuckled, threw something out of her arms, turned around and walked inside, "The people from the General's Mansion just sent a letter, saying that your sister-in-law gave birth to a pair of twins about three-quarters of an hour ago.
, Old General Huo asked you to go back and have a look tomorrow if you are free."
Huo Wu caught it and looked at the token in his hand for a long time, unable to regain his senses.
If calculated based on the distance, it takes exactly three-quarters of an hour from the General's Mansion to the Prince's Mansion.
