Zhu Houzhao was still as lazy as ever. He was wearing a loose white robe, and a few strands of hair hung down from his forehead.
He was striding towards the Earth Peace Palace.
Eunuch Gao and Shangguan Haitang stood on either side.
Li Linglong pushed Wu Qing and walked at the back, chatting and laughing.
He stepped into the Palace of Earthly Tranquility.
He saw the empress dowager sitting at the table with Zhang Wan 'er standing behind her, looking shy.
"Your son."
"Greetings, mother."
Empress Dowager Zhang was dressed in a light green robe, making her look much younger.
"There is no need to be so polite, Emperor."
"Sit down."
"Today aijia specially made your favorite pigeon soup, quickly try it.”
Empress Dowager Zhang served Zhu Houzhao some soup. Wu Qing and the others stood behind her and met Zhang Wan 'er.
The two sides nodded their heads to express their goodwill, but there was a trace of jealousy.
"Thank you, mother."
Zhu Houzhao took the bowl of soup and placed it beside him, preparing to taste it.
Empress Dowager Zhang's words caught the Emperor's attention.
"Is this Shangguan Haitang from The World's Best Manor?”
"It's really as Imperial Brother said, beautiful like a peach blossom.”
"I will definitely be able to give birth to a prince."
The empress dowager's eyes turned to Wu Qing.
"Are you Sheng Yayu, Zhuge's subordinate?”
"Although my legs are sick, if the emperor likes it, this widow also likes it.”
"There's no need to mention Ling Long, this widow has seen her grow up.”
Zhu Houzhao spat out the soup that he had just drank.
"Mother."
"What did you say?"
"They are all my capable generals.”
"How can I be included in the harem?"
Empress Dowager Zhang pursed her lips and clicked her tongue.
"Zhao 'er."
"You are Tian Zi."
"The ruler of a country!"
"Which woman in the world can't be married?”
"Besides,"
"Your Imperial Uncle Zhu Bujue and Divine Marquis Zhuge have no objections.”
"What are you pretending for?"
"Divine Overlord, you don't have any objections?" Shangguan Haitang asked.？？”
Merciless: " Lord Marquis has no objections???"”
"Aren't I here to be a historian? Do you even want me to serve you in bed?"
"Two jobs?"
“emmmmmm”
"I have to pay more!"
Zhu Houzhao hurriedly changed the topic and coughed a few times.
"Mother."
"You're right."
"But we'll talk about it in the future."
"F * ck! After! Yes! Speak!"
Empress Dowager Zhang looked at Zhu Houzhao kindly.
"I called you here today."
"The first is the matter of taking a concubine."
"Like Wan 'er and Linglong."
"Not bad."
Zhu Houzhao hurriedly stopped.
"Mother."
"When Imperial Father's mourning period is over."
"We'll talk about it in the future."
Empress Dowager Zhang nodded and her expression became serious.
"The second thing."
"All of you can leave."
"This widow has something to say to the emperor alone.”
Zhu Houzhao saw the Empress Dowager's serious expression and was afraid that she had something important to tell him.
He also dismissed his subordinates, leaving only the mother and son in the entire Palace of Earthly Tranquility.
"Zhao 'er."
"The second thing this widow told you.”
"You have to remember it well."
Zhu Houzhao was stunned and his expression turned serious.
"Mother, please speak."
"Your son will remember this in his heart."
Empress Dowager Zhang nodded and sighed.
"This widow has been secretly observing the court for so many years.”
"If it wasn't for the previous emperor's request, this widow would have followed the previous emperor.”
As she spoke, Empress Dowager Zhang's eyes started to mist.
"You've grown up now."
"Except for the Eight Tigers, the Fair Jurchen."
" You've already proven your methods."
"You will definitely surpass your father and become a wise ruler.”
As Empress Dowager Zhang spoke, she took off the nine-phoenix golden hairpin on her head. With a move of her hand, she took down one of the phoenixes.
It was a strangely shaped key.
"This is what the late emperor left for you."
Empress Dowager Zhang handed the key to Zhu Houzhao and lowered her voice.
"Before the late Emperor passed away, he told me that there was a chest under the dragon collapse of Yangxin Palace Hall.”
"This is the key to open it."
"The late emperor left you something.”
"As for what it is."
"This widow doesn't want to ask and doesn't want to know.”
"You're already grown up. You'll make your own decisions.”
Zhu Houzhao held the key in his hand and pondered.
"Go ahead."
As Empress Dowager Zhang spoke, tears flowed down her face.
Zhu Houzhao nodded and left the Palace of Earthly Tranquility.
……
Yangxin Palace Hall.
The surrounding maids were all dismissed. Zhu Houzhao opened the dragon cave, and indeed, a small hole appeared.
He inserted the key and the box opened.
"There's only one letter inside."
"There's also a white marble wall."
Zhu Houzhao opened the letter. It was written by the late emperor.
"Zhao 'er."
"Words are like faces."
"You must have already become the ruler of a country.”
"Imperial Father believes that you can do better than me.”
"Cao Zhengchun of the East Chamber can be put in an important position.”
"But you have to be on guard against him at all times.”
"West Hall Yu Huatian is the most loyal, but we can't give him too much power.”
"The five commanders of the Embroidered Uniform Guards can be put in important positions.”
"Ironguts Godduke Zhu ignored me."
"My brother."
"Zhen has let him down."
"You shouldn't disagree with his marriage with Suxin for the sake of the royal family's dignity.”
"If there is a chance, tell him that I was wrong.”
"Although Zhu Bujue is in charge of the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa, he will still help you in times of crisis, even if he hates me.”
"Because his surname is Zhu!"
"You have to balance the relationship between the cabinet and the eunuchs.”
"We can't let one family dominate."
"I still have one last trump card for you.”
"So big that the Dragon Guard Mountain Villa can break it with a snap of their fingers!”
"Nation Protecting Pillar!"
"Tiger Warrior and Dragon Warrior!"
"He has the Tiger Troop and the Valiant Dragon Cavalry.”
"A total of 800,000 soldiers!"
"Hidden in the border town on the north side of the Ming Dynasty.”
"If the country is in danger of being destroyed, we can use the Bright Moon Wall to summon him to the capital to help the king!”
"When I ascended the throne, the Ming Empire was in turmoil and could only recuperate and recover its national strength.”
"I only wish to avenge the humiliation of the Earthwood Castle!"
"But Zhen will not be able to witness this scene of Da Ming's revenge.”
"Remember."
"Not my kind!"
"His heart must be different!"
