Chapter 129: Turning against guests
Then Zhan Jingchen patted Zhan Jingxuan's shoulder like an elder.
"I believe you can handle this matter better. Zhan Ningyan cannot be a good emperor."
Zhan Jingxuan nodded: "Well, I will consider this matter carefully and handle it properly."
Both of them were silent for a while.
Then Zhan Jingxuan narrowed his eyes and said, "Brother, you are still a little weird today."
Zhan Jingchen was speechless, his expression changed so quickly.
"My princess is visiting relatives in the harem, and my mother asked me to have dinner with her."
Zhan Jingxuan suddenly realized: "So that's how it is, brother, why didn't you tell me earlier!" He was worried and scared because he had caused such a misunderstanding.
He was wondering why his royal brother stayed in the imperial study and refused to leave. It turned out that the royal sister-in-law was in the harem.
Zhan Jingchen stood up and said, "Then I will take my leave first. Your Majesty, please continue reviewing the memorials."
Zhan Jingxuan had a dark face. His royal brother was so cruel. He would destroy the bridge after crossing it!
"I also plan to go out and relax, so why not accompany my royal brother for a walk." Memorials can be reviewed at any time, and the opportunity to see my royal brother having fun is not common!
Zhan Jingchen glanced at him and said nothing.
So the two of them walked out of the imperial study.
Zhan Jingxuan suddenly hesitated for a moment: "Where is the emperor's sister-in-law now?" When visiting relatives, which palace does the emperor's sister-in-law's elder sister live in?
Fuxi reminded carefully: "Your Majesty, Tangxi Changzai lives in Yaxiu Palace."
Zhan Jingxuan suddenly realized: "Right, right, right! Look at my memory, I forgot everything."
Zhan Jingchen glanced at him and said, "Don't leave me alone for too long." His wife will be heartbroken by then.
Zhan Jingxuan regretted following his brother out a little. He immediately guessed what his brother was thinking.
"Well, what the emperor said makes sense."
Zhan Jingchen continued to lie to his brother, "You are not a child anymore, but there is no heir in the palace. You should pay more attention."
Zhan Jingxuan: “…” It’s exactly the same as what the Queen Mother said!
Zhan Jingchen thought to himself that now that his younger brother had an heir, his mother would not be in such a hurry to urge him.
"Brother, you are obviously older than me."
He repeated to me exactly what my mother had urged him to say. He is such a good brother to me!
Zhan Jingchen raised his eyebrows: "You are the emperor, your offspring are naturally more important than mine."
"..."
Fuxi looked like he was used to it. The emperor could not defeat the prince. Facing this brother who was born to the same mother, the emperor had never won since he was a child.
Zhan Jingxuan felt so frustrated! Not only did his mother urge him, but also the ministers, and now his brother was urging him too.
The only pressure the emperor's brother has is from his mother.
"Why haven't you arrived yet?"
Fu Xi trembled and said, "Your Highness, we are still one stick of incense away from Yaxiu Palace."
Zhan Jingchen frowned. It was such a long way. Wouldn't it be very tiring for the little girl to walk here? She was so delicate. How could she walk such a long way?
But the little girl has a good relationship with her older sister, and she will have many opportunities to visit the palace in the future. He can't let the little girl go like this every time, as it would distress him.
Zhan Jingxuan: "..." The look in the emperor's eyes was too obvious, it was hard not to know, sister-in-law was too powerful! She had the emperor in her control.
He had been afraid of his elder brother’s stern face since he was a child, and he had never seen his elder brother so worried about anyone.
Zhan Jingchen frowned, and was in a dilemma for a moment. The emperor's harem was not allowed to let him interfere, not to mention that he had already done two heinous things...
Zhan Jingxuan was curious. If he felt sorry for the emperor's sister-in-law, then he felt sorry for her. Why did he look like he had encountered a terrible thing?
Is there anything that my royal brother can't solve? In my heart, he is omnipotent. From childhood to adulthood, nothing can stump him.
Finally, Zhan Jingchen sighed and said, "Never mind, it's good for the little girl to walk more, just to stretch her muscles."
He hoped that Tang Xirou could fight for her dignity and strive to move out of that corner as soon as possible. He would not interfere in his brother's emotional affairs. If his wife had not begged him last time, he would not have been so shameless as to ask his brother to make the order.
Zhan Jingxuan narrowed his eyes. His brother had completely changed after not seeing him for a few days. He changed his face more and more frequently, and his facial expressions became more varied.
The two of them just kept walking like this.
"Your Majesty, Prince, the Yaxiu Palace is just ahead."
"The Emperor has arrived!!!"
Fuxi shouted in a shrill voice.
He did not mention Zhan Jingchen. After all, this was the harem, and it was not convenient for the prince, as an outsider, to publicize it.
A side hall of Yaxiu Palace.
"My lady, Princess, the Emperor is here!"
In fact, before Xiao Ya came in to report, the two of them had already heard the voice outside.
Tang Xiluo nodded calmly, but Tang Xirou looked flustered. She hadn't dressed up at all, would she be disrespectful in front of the emperor? And her sister was still here, would the emperor have any objections?
Tang Xiluo patted her hand and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, sister, the emperor doesn't eat people."
Tang Xirou was startled, then frowned: "Lolo, don't talk nonsense." How could they joke about the emperor casually? This is a crime of disrespect!
Tang Xiluo shrugged helplessly: "Okay, okay, if you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me."
Tang Xirou loves and hates her sister's character. She hopes that she can live a bolder, more innocent and happier life, but she is also afraid that she will get into trouble.
"Okay, let's go out and welcome the Holy Lord."
After they tidied their clothes, they hurried out.
"Concubine, please see the emperor."
"My wife is here to see the Emperor."
"Your servant/maid pays respect to His Majesty, Your Majesty."
Tang Xiluo and Tang Xirou were stunned. What? The prince? He's here too?
The two men bowed as they came out, without even looking up to see who was coming. They only knew that the emperor had arrived.
"Flat body."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zhan Jingxuan waved his hand: "The rest of you can go down."
The maids and servants retreated one after another, and for a moment there were only four of them left in the courtyard.
Tang Xiluo finally couldn't pretend anymore, stared at Zhan Jingchen and asked, "Why are you here?" Can he come to the harem?
Zhan Jingchen touched the tip of his nose and said, "I am here to accompany the emperor." He did not come alone, so outsiders could not say anything even if they wanted to.
Zhan Jingxuan: “…” What a huge pot fell from the sky.
Tang Xirou lowered her head nervously, not daring to speak or look up at them.
Tang Xiluo curled his lips, as if this was his own palace.
"Sit down and have a cup of tea."
Zhan Jingchen nodded: "That's exactly what I meant."
Zhan Jingxuan: "???" Or maybe he is always walking with Tang Xichang, the owner of the side hall of Yaxiu Palace?
Tang Xirou was also confused. Whose territory was this? Why did she and the emperor seem like guests?
