After seeing off several hundred households, the most important thing of the day was done, and Zhao Yanxun breathed a sigh of relief.
"Your Majesty, where are you going next?" Lin Quan asked from the side.
After thinking about it, Zhao Yanxun said: "Go and see Concubine Jade!"
Just leave as soon as possible. The inn is not very big. After just turning a few corners inside, Zhao Yanxun arrived outside Lin Jingyu's house.
"See you, Your Majesty..." The maids saluted one after another.
Before Zhao Yanxun entered, he heard a charming voice coming from inside: "I just told you that the prince will definitely come back today. Sister, take a look..."
Huang Rongrong is the only one in the palace who can speak like this.
Stepping into the door and looking at Huang Rongrong who was facing him, Zhao Yanxun couldn't help but smile and said: "My dear concubine, you are really good at predicting things!"
"My lord, you are making fun of me again!" Huang Rongrong threw herself directly into Zhao Yanxun's arms.
Zhao Yanxun hugged Huang Rongrong into his arms. He was such a cute little fairy.
The two of them were flirting with each other in front of everyone, but everyone in the room was so embarrassed that they couldn't help but look at it.
"Okay, okay!"
After letting Huang Rongrong go, Zhao Yanxun looked at Lin Jingyu.
After these few days of recovery, Lin Jingyu's face has become much rosier and she is now able to get out of bed.
"Meet the prince!" Lin Jingyu stood up and saluted.
After experiencing the Wang Changxin incident, Lin Jingyu's mentality changed, and she gradually accepted Zhao Yanxun in her heart, a husband who was not her favorite.
"No need to be polite, are you feeling better?" Zhao Yanxun stepped forward and asked.
As a single man in his previous life, his only girlfriend was still out of reach, Bingbing, so he must love and cherish the women in this life with extra care.
"My concubine is feeling much better now, and she can be on her way in just these two days!" Lin Jingyu said with a slight smile.
Zhao Yanxun nodded and then said: "Don't be in a hurry, your body is the most important!"
I have to say that although Zhao Yanxun felt that what he said was very plain, it still moved Lin Jingyu a little bit.
After all, she was not alone after marrying in a foreign country, and there were still people who cared for her and cared for her.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
When the relationship between the two was heating up, Huang Rongrong stepped forward, took Lin Jingyu's hand and said, "Sister Lin, look at... the prince is ignoring me!"
Lin Jingyu was extremely embarrassed. After all, she was thin-skinned, so she simply took a step back and let Huang Rongrong stand in the middle.
At this moment, Zhao Yanxun didn't want to favor one over the other, so he simply took the two women to the round table, and the three of them sat down around the table and started chatting.
For Zhao Yanxun, joking with two beauties is a rare pastime for him in this era.
But the three of them hadn't chatted for long when they heard from Lin Quan outside that two chief ministers of the palace were asking for an audience.
Guan Hetai retained Zhou Chengping, which actually made Zhao Yanxun slightly disappointed.
At this moment, these two people asked to see each other together, which made Zhao Yanxun murmur in his heart. Could it be that they were here to "force the palace" again?
Strictly speaking, if Guan Taizhen and Zhou Chengping unite, they can really deprive Zhao Yanxun of his power.
All the agencies in the palace, except for the guards, were under the control of these two people, so Zhao Yanxun had to take precautions in advance.
"Two beloved concubines, I'm going to see those two old guys first, and I'll talk to you later!" Zhao Yanxun smiled warmly.
"My lord, go slowly and don't argue with them!" Huang Rongrong warned, she didn't want to see Zhao Yanxun angry again.
After Zhao Yanxun left, Huang Rongrong lowered her voice and said to Lin Jingyu: "Sister Lin, you don't know... When the prince gets angry, it can scare people to death!"
Lin Jingyu was stunned for a moment, and then asked what happened.
There was an accident at the banquet the night before, but Lin Jingyu didn't know the specific situation.
Here Huang Rongrong is telling Zhao Yanxun's glorious deeds. In the small courtyard room on the other side, Guan and Tai, dressed in official uniforms and official hats, are sitting on chairs and waiting.
When they heard the footsteps coming from outside, the two people immediately stood up from their chairs, then bowed towards the door and saluted.
"Meet Your Highness!"
After all, these two people are the highest-ranking officials in the palace. No matter what unpleasantness happened before, Zhao Yanxun should not be too mean when others lower their profile.
"My dear friends, there is no need to be polite, please sit down!"
After saying this, Zhao Yanxun walked directly to the main seat and sat down on the chair.
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
After the two of them took their seats, Guan Hetai glanced at Zhou Chengping and then said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I and Zhou Changshi came here today to apologize to Your Majesty!"
Zhao Yanxun was ready to compete with these two people in the ring, but they said these "cowardly" words, which made Zhao Yanxun a little stunned for a while.
Zhou Chengping is willing to apologize to himself for having such a bad temper? Wouldn't he rather resign than to resign?
With a scrutinizing gaze, Zhao Yanxun looked at Zhou Chengping who was sitting beside him.
Zhou Chengping stood up straight away, then bowed and said: "Your Highness, the former minister was overly emotional, acted recklessly, and used inappropriate words... I offended Your Highness, please forgive me!"
After saying this, Zhou Chengping knelt down directly, which made Zhao Yanxun stand up.
Everyone is talking about this, how can I still not forgive him?
Even though he wanted Zhou Chengping to leave quickly, Zhao Yanxun could only say hypocritically: "The former King of Japan also made mistakes. We both made mistakes. Zhou Changshi need not blame himself too much!"
At this moment, Guan Hetai said: "Zhou Changshi, since His Highness has said so, just get up!"
"Thank you, Your Highness!" After Guan Hetai had done the ideological work, even if Zhao Yanxun was sarcastic at this moment, Zhou Chengping would not say anything about leaving again.
No matter how stubborn Zhao Yanxun is, he will do his best to teach and help, just to live up to the emperor's trust.
Although everyone shook hands and made peace, after all, the three of them had different ideas, so that the atmosphere in the room was very awkward, and there was no common language between the three of them.
Fortunately, Guan Hetai was a veteran in officialdom and quickly brought up the topic so that the three of them could discuss it.
Finally, they talked about setting off. Considering that the rainy season had passed in the past two days and Lin Jingyu's condition had improved, Zhao Yanxun finally decided to set off again in three days.
According to his original intention, he actually preferred to arrive at the fiefdom earlier, so that he could prepare for the end of the world earlier.
On this point, Zhou Chengping and Zhao Yanxun coincided with each other. He also hoped to arrive early so that he could teach Zhao Yanxun how to read and understand.
After a small talk, the three of them seemed to be enjoying themselves, but they didn't know that the maid who was listening behind the screen had quietly left.
Quickly arriving outside Xue Baojun's room, the maid entered the room after passing through the door, and saw Xue Baojun drawing a painting with a pen, while the maid Yuzhu was studying ink aside.
"Empress, this slave is back!"
Xue Baoyun didn't even look back and asked while painting: "How is it?"
"The prince had a good conversation with the two chief ministers, and they also agreed to set off in three days!"
The maid then reported the detailed situation, and only after that did Xue Baoyun ask her to leave.
After the person left, Xue Baojun handed the pen to Yuzhu, and then took the tea from the maid on the side.
"Your Majesty, if the prince and the two chief ministers have a harmonious conversation, you can rest assured!" Yuzhu said with a smile.
Xue Baoyun glanced at his confidant maid and said in a cold tone: "Don't say this nonsense in the future!"
Yuzhu was stunned for a moment, then realized that he had just made a mistake, and quickly knelt down to apologize.
Yes, Yuzhu did speak to Xue Baoyun's thoughts.
Xue Baoyun didn't want her husband to fall out with the civil servants, because she always remembered Concubine Duan's words and tried her best to pave the way for Zhao Yanxun's return to the capital.
Although doing this was for Zhao Yanxun's good, Xue Baoyun knew that her husband was a very independent person and might not like what he did.
That's why she doesn't like Yuzhu's words just now. If this reaches her husband's ears, it won't be worthwhile if the relationship between the couple is at odds.
