Chapter 178



Chapter 178

Wu Qingyao's injury has stabilized, and Zhao Xiyan only comes to her room for a quarter of an hour a day to have a look, and he never comes alone.Wu Qingyao was already very happy that Zhao Xiyan could take the initiative to come to see her every day, and he was always recuperating well.She answered what Zhao Xiyan said, and answered carefully, for fear of offending Zhao Xiyan.Zhao Xiyan sighed in his heart, she is such a good woman, why bother to like him, making herself so humble and cautious.Zhao Xiyan doesn't like the kind of women who are obedient and obedient. He always thinks that women should have their own temper and indelible water chestnuts.We are all born to be human, why bother to deliberately please someone?In the beginning, the queen's return to favor was also so cautious and worrying about gains and losses. Zhao Xiyan told her that there was no need to be like this several times, but the queen remained the same.At that time, Su Qingshu was like a frightened bird, tightly grabbing the corner of Zhao Xiyan's clothes, afraid that Zhao Xiyan would not want her again.It wasn't until after Su Qingshu gave birth to the child that he regained some of his [-]-year-old temper, and Zhao Xiyan felt relieved.Originally, it is difficult enough for a woman to be with a woman, but also to serve her husband with others, and to be so careful, what is the point of this life?

A few days have passed for those rebellious parties, and they haven't provided anything effective. They were supposed to kill them.Zhao Xiyan suddenly changed his mind and wanted to take them back to the capital. He announced with great fanfare that they were the former subordinates of King Lixin who had come to assassinate the emperor for revenge, and directly sentenced Caishikou Lingchi to death.Zhao Xiyan made such a big move because he wanted to tell the mastermind of this matter that he really believed that it was the old men of King Lixin who came to kill the emperor.Let the real mastermind relax his vigilance, at least he can't touch his mind.Han Qiuyi still dragged Qiu Ruyu around in front of Zhao Xiyan from time to time, beckoning Zhao Xiyan to favor Qiu Ruyu, even Qi Chen was drawn into the camp.Zhao Xiyan probably understood what Han Qiuyi was up to, he wanted to go back to Beijing and immediately order Qichen to join Prince Sixian's lineage, so that he would never have the possibility of inheriting the throne.

Zhao Xiyan thought about it, but suppressed the urge.Qiushui Villa dared to make a move, which showed that it was also prepared.If Qichen really joined the line of Prince Xian and lost the possibility of inheriting the great line, maybe they would have some troubles.Zhao Xiyan thought of Qiushui Mountain Villa's ability on the day when he seized the heir, and thought that his children were so young, and he was afraid that there were some things that he couldn't guard against.Zhao Xiyan felt chills down his spine when he thought of those brothers who died at birth.After all, the child is young, if he accidentally dies, no one can be blamed.Zhao Xiyan thought of his father's heir, didn't they almost die inexplicably like this?The first emperor had fourteen princes in total, and those who lived to sixteen could be counted clearly with five fingers. Everyone knew why these children could not survive.The water in the harem is deep, Zhao Xiyan can't guarantee that his mother and concubine's hands are clean, and he can't believe that Han Qiuyi's hands are clean.Han Qiuyi was able to climb to the position of noble concubine in an instant due to the disadvantages of later generations, and also won the favor of the late emperor alone. Zhao Xiyan would not believe it if he had no means to kill him.Zhao Xiyan couldn't figure out the strength of Qiushui Villa, he couldn't afford to lose, so he could only stand still, thinking of ways to know himself and the enemy while paralyzing them.Zhao Xiyan's attitude towards Qiu Ruyu suddenly eased a lot, and occasionally he would care a word or two, but he just kept away.Qiu Ruyu's heart was fluttered by Zhao Xiyan's transformation, and she even began to look forward to the future harmony with Zhao Xiyan.But Zhao Xiyan treated her as if he was away from her, and told her not to have too high hopes.

On this day, Zhao Xiyan received a letter from the imperial court, and the ministers were all writing letters looking forward to his return to Beijing earlier, because the assassination did delay a few days.Zhao Xiyan wanted to attack Qiushui Villa as soon as possible, and he was already sitting on pins and needles in Qinzhou.But if Wu Qingyao's current body goes on the road, his condition may worsen.Zhao Xiyan has a heart of pity and pity, and he can't bear to make Wu Qingyao's injury worse because of rushing, but he is really ready to move.Zhao Xiyan folded the letter and threw it to Xiangyun to keep it, then turned around and walked towards Wu Qingyao's room.It was afternoon at this time, and everyone in the yard had taken a nap, and it was so quiet that even the chirping of birds and insects could be heard very clearly.After Wu Qingyao drank the medicine, she couldn't sleep because of the stuffy heat. She was embroidering a silk handkerchief for mandarin ducks playing in the water.She always thought that after the embroidery was finished, she would give it to Zhao Xiyan to wipe off her sweat in summer.She was very familiar with Zhao Xiyan's footsteps, she heard the familiar rhythm from a distance, and her heart began to speed up along with the rhythm.Zhao Xiyan used to be lukewarm towards her in the palace, and he was especially cold a few days ago, but now that he is hurt, he is the slightest bit gentle.But even if it was only a little bit, Wu Qingyao was extremely attached, longing for Zhao Xiyan to give more, but afraid that his greed would annoy him.Zhao Xiyan was welcomed in, and Wu Qingyao was about to stand up to salute, but Zhao Xiyan waved his hand to signal that there was no need to salute.

"The concubine has seen the emperor."

"There is no need to be polite when you are hurt."

"The emperor doesn't take a rest at noon, why did he come to this concubine by himself?"

"Come and see you, are you better?"

The maid in Wu Qingyao's room quickly brought the chair for the emperor. Zhao Xiyan lifted her robe and sat in front of Wu Qingyao.

"It's better, and I can get out of bed and walk."

"Really? But what's the discomfort?" Zhao Xiyan heard that she was much better, and when he saw the folding fan in his hand, he felt a little light.

"No, just..."

"Just what?"

"It's just that everything is fine except thinking about you."

Wu Qingyao didn't dare to say this sentence, so she kept it in her heart and kept hiding it, so that he could not see the light.Wu Qingyao met Zhao Xiyan's eyes, her eyes were bright, but her left shoulder was still hurting, and she had been enduring it.She wanted to be weaker and throw herself into his arms to be comforted by him, but Zhao Xiyan would not treat her like this.

"nothing."

"It's fine if you don't have anything to do, take good care of yourself. You have done a great job in saving me this time, and I will reward you for your merits when you return to Beijing. Have you thought about what you want this time?"

"The concubine has nothing else to ask for, but only wants to be by the emperor's side."

Wu Qingyao raised her face, her deep bright eyes stared straight at Zhao Xiyan's, as if it was not a request, but a firm swearing.Zhao Xiyan didn't want to look into her eyes, his face darkened again and again, he just waved his hands and drove the people out of Wu Qingyao's room.Seeing that everyone had gone out, Zhao Xiyan stood up with his hands behind his back.

"Miss Wu, I have no secrets for you, so why bother?"

"Qing Yao owes the emperor too much."

"The sword you blocked for me and the queen will pay off the debt, you and I are settled, you don't have to do this."

"Qingyao owes the emperor, how can he pay off with a sword? What's more, what's more, what's more, the emperor stole Qing Yao's things, how can it be said that it is clear?"

"I am the king of a country, and the whole world belongs to me. Why do I need to steal from you?"

"The emperor stole the heart of his concubine, how should he clean it up?"

"I have never teased you, and I have never promised you anything. Everything is just your wishful thinking. I have no shortage of women. Go and find a lover. Isn't it good to have a couple for a lifetime? You have to compete with these women one?"

"Zi Feiyu knows the joy of fish?"

"Stubborn!"

Zhao Xiyan was a little annoyed that she couldn't move, she sighed, turned around and left.He is the emperor, no matter whether he is a man or a woman, as long as he wants, all the women in the world can be his.But anyone can do it, but Wu Qingyao can't.The purpose of Zhao Xiyan's visit was to check on Wu Qingyao's injury. Now that she is better, she might be able to leave.Zhao Xiyan ordered to go down and return to Beijing in two days.Because of the assassination, many guards were specially added when he returned to Beijing, and he was not as elegant as when he came here.As soon as Wu Qingyao was on the road, her injuries really got worse and she developed a high fever, which was good and bad.But already on the way, Zhao Xiyan didn't want to stop, so he had to hang with rare medicinal materials all the way.When Wu Qingyao arrived in the capital, she was sent back to her Cuiwei Palace, and it took two full days to stabilize.

Zhao Xiyan was not in the mood to care about her, and returned to Beijing to deal with the backlog of government affairs, and even issued several imperial edicts.If you don't respond to this private visit in microservices, you may think the emperor is going to hunt for beauty.Zhao Xiyan's first order was to execute those rebels immediately, investigate and deal with the remaining party of King Lixin, and beheaded at Caishikou early the next morning.The severed heads were hung at the entrance of the vegetable market, making everyone feel insecure, for fear of being framed as the remnants of King Ruxin.Zhao Xiyan's second decree was to build shelters in the magistrates' yamen to take in orphans, widows and beggars, especially young children, and the money would be allocated annually by the household department.The third decree is to confer the title of King of Medicine on Xia Guozhang, to be in charge of doctors from all walks of life in Daqi, and to require famous doctors from all over the country to give free consultations for half a month in July every year, and the medicine fee will be halved. The medicine fee will be subsidized by the imperial court and supervised by local governments. .The fourth decree specially conferred Jinghe nunnery as the holy nunnery for the protection of the country, and conferred the title of Master Jingyin as the holy nunnery in charge of the holy nunnery.As soon as the four decrees came out, the hearts of the government and the opposition fell.The emperor really just observed the sentiments of the people, and did not find out what the wise king did.The Ministry of Households repeatedly refuted it. Because of the large amount of funds needed, Zhao Xiyan ignored the Ministry of Households' cry of poverty. How could he, the emperor, not know how much money the treasury had?These are all practical things for the common people, and the money should be used for this, rather than spent on the talent show.When Zhao Xiyan thought of spending so much money on the draft in the second year of Tianyuan, and finally picked ten big troubles, his heart ached.

It took half a month for Wu Qingyao's injury to heal. Zhao Xiyan only came here occasionally, just to have a look and ask questions.On this day, Zhao Xiyan heard a report from the Imperial Hospital, saying that Wu Zhaoyi's injury had healed.Zhao Xiyan thought about it, Wu Qingyao made a great contribution to saving her this time, what should I reward?None of her mother's family is dead, and now it is a fake under the name of the Wu family in the capital.He has always been very clear about rewards and punishments, but what Wu Qingyao asked for was only a long-term companion. Zhao Xiyan thought that you would stay in the palace if you loved it. It was harmless, but it was not a reward.It's just that everyone knows that she has made great contributions to rescuing him, and it seems that it won't work if she doesn't reward her. It will chill the hearts of all the loyal soldiers.Zhao Xiyan thought about it for a long time, and it seemed that there was nothing else to reward except for her promotion.But there was a grudge between Wu Qingyao and him and the queen. Even if he could get by, the queen should always be worried.Zhao Xiyan made Wu Qingyao the last of the four concubines for his meritorious service in saving her family. The imperial decree did not go to Cuiwei Palace to proclaim the decree, but was sent to Fengqi Palace for the empress to see.Zhao Xiyan believed that Su Qingshu would understand what he wanted to say after reading this edict. If the empress still had trouble with Wu Qingyao, she would naturally come to Feishuang Palace to find him.
