Chapter 272 Forced
"Then do you want to try it?" Zhao Xing teased.
"Concubine...Concubine..." Jiang Liangdi's face turned red and she stammered, lowering her head.
Zhao Xing stroked her face and said, "You can continue painting, but you can't let others see it. Next time you serve Gu, remember to bring the picture album with you. Gu wants to see it, you know?" "
"I know...I know!" Jiang Liangdi nodded.
"I'm leaving first."
Zhao Xing patted Jiang Liangdi's back. Jiang Liangdi understood and quickly got out of Zhao Xing's arms and stood aside helplessly.
“Haha.”
Zhao Xing laughed and walked out.
“Your Highness, cloak!”
Jiang Liangdi shouted, trotted over, took the cloak, and put it on Zhao Xing.
Zhao Xing looked at Jiang Liangdi who was tying his cloak.
Jiang Liangdi looked dull before, more like she was pretending.
Now I don’t know if his true colors have been exposed, and he is no longer pretending to be indifferent, and looks a bit coquettish.
After she fastened her cloak, Zhao Xing stretched out his hand to drag her chin, lowered his head and kissed her.
As soon as their lips and teeth touched, Jiang Liangdi seemed to be a different person. She put her arms around Zhao Xing's neck and became the guest.
Kissing Zhao Xing until he was breathless, he let go of Zhao Xing with a look of unfulfillment.
Zhao Xing: "..."
"Haha."
Jiang Liangdi looked at Zhao Xing who was running away, covering her mouth and laughing.
.........
"Go ahead, this bitch is a rotten girl." Zhao Xing thought angrily.
Although Jiang Liangdi took the initiative before, she was not as proactive as she was just now.
Could it be that Jiang Liangdi had some restraint before, and he had just exposed her true identity and also released her seal?
Zhao Xing felt a little depressed when he thought that he had just escaped and seemed to vaguely hear Jiang Liangdi's laughter.
But it can't be said to be angry. The best person like Jiang Liangdi is very rare.
Those concubines in the East Palace, even the carefree Ru Lan, are still very shy in bed.
Although the shy and timid looks of people like Yu Yanran and Shulan are also very attractive, people like Jiang Liangdi can give him a different experience.
"Your Highness, where are you going next?"
When Sanshui saw Zhao Xing coming out of Jiang Liangdi's courtyard, he was distracted and walked forward aimlessly. He was almost at the garden. I had to ask out loud.
Zhao Xing came back to his senses and said, "Let's go to Xia Pavilion."
"Your Highness, Xia Pavilion is over there." Sanshui pointed to the direction to the left behind.
“Don’t remind me earlier!” Zhao Xing glared at him and turned around immediately.
Sanshui: "..."
…………
Arriving outside Xia Pavilion, Zhao Xing hesitated.
After hesitating for a long time, he gritted his teeth and walked in.
The palace maid who was busy in the courtyard quickly bowed and saluted, and trotted smartly into the house to report.
However, when Zhao Xing walked to the door, Li Yunchu did not come out to greet him.
The palace maid at the door opened the thick curtain, stood with a bow, and waited for Zhao Xing to enter before lowering the curtain.
Zhao Xing walked around the screen and saw Li Yunchu sitting on the soft couch, holding a book in his hand and reading, as if he didn't know he was coming.
On the contrary, the maids who came with her to marry her looked at Zhao Xing warily.
“Meet Your Highness!” Qian’s mother quickly stepped forward and saluted.
"Yes." Zhao Xing nodded slightly and said, "Mother Qian, the maid she is marrying is young and ignorant. You have to worry more about this in the future."
"Don't worry, Your Highness, the Crown Princess has given instructions when the slave comes, and the slave must be careful." Qian's mother said quickly.
When Zhang Guifen sent her here, she was actually very reluctant to come.
It’s not that Zhang Guifen is jealous of Li Yunchu’s pregnancy.
As long as a woman is pregnant, miscarriage and miscarriage are very common.
She belongs to Zhang Guifen. If something happens to the child in Li Yunchu's belly, who knows what His Highness the Crown Prince will think.
There was obviously no benefit in doing this, and it might even cause a scandal, so she naturally tried to persuade Zhang Guifen.
But Zhang Guifen insisted on letting her come, so she had no choice but to come.
Even if Zhao Xing didn’t say anything, she would still be careful.
Zhao Xing glanced at Li Yunchu, who was still reading, and said, "You all, please step aside!"
"Yes!"
Qian's mother and a few people in the room The Han maids all bowed and bowed, but those from Xixia did not move.
"You guys go down."
Zhao Xing just wanted to get angry, but Li Yunchu spoke.
“Princess!” Zhihua was anxious.
How the princess was tortured after they left last time.
In fact, Zhao Xing did not torture Li Yunchu at all, but Li Yunchu did not cooperate at first, and it was inevitable that he would leave some bruises on his body during the struggle.
Zhihua asked Li Yunchu, but Li Yunchu said nothing.
So I imagined many scenes of Zhao Xing inhumanely torturing his own princess. If Li Yunchu hadn't told her not to mess around, she would have been ready to fight Zhao Xing when she saw him.
"Get out!" Li Yunchu's tone was a little colder.
"Yes!" Seeing Li Yunchu's anger, Zhi Hua could only agree and retreated with several Xixia palace maids.
When there were only two people left in the room, Zhao Xing touched his nose awkwardly.
Seeing that Li Yunchu was reading a book and had no intention of talking to him, he could only find his own words.
"Do you also know Han Chinese characters?" Zhao Xing came to sit next to Li Yunchu, glanced at the book in her hand and said.
Li Yunchu didn't react at all. Instead, he turned a page and continued reading, completely treating Zhao Xing as if he didn't exist.
"You should know by now that the last time you came to the Song Dynasty, the Emperor of Xixia actually had the intention of getting married to the Song Dynasty." Zhao Xing said.
Li Yunchu still didn't respond, but Zhao Xing saw her hand holding the book tremble slightly.
Zhao Xing continued to stimulate: "When the Song Dynasty destroys Xixia in the future, it will be considered as venting your anger."
"Dream!" Li Yunchu couldn't hold back anymore after hearing this, and was cold. Leng said: "The Song Dynasty is not a match for the Xia Dynasty at all. When my father proclaimed himself emperor, the Song Dynasty sent troops to obstruct it. In the end, not only did he lose his troops, but he also lost his city and territory."
" Gu admitted that Xixia did not So simple. But don't worry, the Song Dynasty will definitely destroy Xixia in the future." Zhao Xingxin said.
He is not worried that Li Yunchu will report to Xixia after hearing what he said.
The Song Dynasty said that it must destroy Xixia and the Liao Kingdom, and the Liao Kingdom and Xixia Kingdom also said the same.
In Li Yunchu's opinion, he was just getting high.
Even if Li Yunchu sent a message back, Xixia would not believe it.
Sure enough, when Li Yunchu heard this, he just looked at him with disdain and then withdrew his gaze.
Zhao Xing was very angry by this look. Fortunately, he still had reason. Li Yunchu was just pregnant now, and Zhao Xing did not dare to do anything to her.
"One day you will beg Gu Gu." Zhao Xing sneered: "You'd better give Gu Gu a good baby. If anything happens to Gu Gu's child, Gu Gu will stop trading with Xixia and send you back to Xixia to see. What will happen to you!"
After saying that, Zhao Xing walked away.
"Pa tah~"
Listening to Zhao Xing's footsteps disappearing, the book in Li Yunchu's hand fell down, and tears remained silently.
…………
In the next few days, Zhao Xing and Zhang Guifen were very busy.
Zhao Xing needs to meet with some visiting officials every day, while Zhang Guifen needs to meet with some official family members.
Although Zhao Xing did some things that displeased the civil officials, he was still the prince and his position was very stable.
Of course there are some officials who want to please him.
No matter what Zhao Xing thinks, after he ascends the throne in the future, he will need someone to support him when he does something.
Although these people are not of much use, they can still wave the flag and shout.
So Zhao Xing not only received them, but also held a special banquet for these officials on the eighth day of the lunar month.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, the dancer in the hall finished her dance and vented her anger.
Zhao Xing looked at Sanshui, who understood and left.
After a while, the music stopped.
Upon seeing this, a group of drunken officials knew that Zhao Xing should have something to say, and the hall slowly became quiet.
"Everyone!"
Zhao Xing smiled and said: "The measures to benefit the country and the people, such as clearing the land, have many obstacles at the local level. Xueshi Hai only won a few victories in Jiangnan. There are so many people impeaching an official. Yu Xianggong and Hai Xianggong are unable to reunite with their families during the New Year, but these people impeach them for their own selfish purposes. It is really hateful."
Everyone heard this! Knowing that there is no good banquet, he dodged Zhao Xing's gaze, not daring to talk to him.
"Why, do you think these people are not hateful?" Zhao Xing said lightly.
"Hateful!"
"It is indeed hateful."
Sparse echoes sounded in the hall.
"Haha, I know that all the ministers are people who dare to speak up for justice. As far as I know, the officials who impeached Xuexiang Hai were all headed by Hu Zhongyan, the Minister of Civil Affairs, because the Jiangning Mansion was taken away by Xianggong Hai. Yin is the younger brother of Hu Shangshu.
As Shangshu of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, he is in charge of the evaluation and promotion of officials, and he is respected as the Heavenly Official. However, he blatantly bends the law for personal gain and impeaches him for his own gain, which is even more hateful!" Zhao Xing said.
Everyone was silent again after hearing this. Although the six ministers were all at the same level, the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household were divided by the Privy Council and the other by the three departments, which almost existed in name only.
Among the remaining ministers, the most powerful ones are the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Personnel.
One is in charge of the county schools and state schools all over the world, and is also in charge of the imperial examinations.
The other is in charge of the appointment and promotion of officials.
The ministers of these two books are also respectfully called Xianggong, and their status is not low among several Xianggong.
Zhao Xing obviously wanted to use them to deal with Hu Zhongyan.
Although Zhao Xing is the prince, can he influence Hu Zhongyan now?
If he couldn't move, Hu Zhongyan wouldn't dare to retaliate against Zhao Xing, why wouldn't he dare to retaliate against them?
The highest ranking among them is only the fourth grade, and there are not many of them. Most of the rest are officials of the fifth and sixth grades.
"You are all people who dare to speak out for justice. I believe that you will not let this matter go unchecked. I will attend the morning court after the new year. I must be able to attend the first morning court after the Shangyuan Festival. I see how you are not afraid of power," Zhao Xing said with a smile.
When everyone heard this, their expressions were even worse than if their father had died.
Zhao Xing is obviously forcing them to impeach Hu Zhongyan.
They were afraid of Hu Zhongyan’s revenge, but they were also afraid of Zhao Xing’s revenge.
Now they even wish that their father died so that they could return home and observe their filial piety.
