I embezzled 100,000 taels at the beginning, and the empress begged me to be more greedy

dusk.

In the room, Jiang Zuo was changing clothes.

The clothes placed in front of him at this moment made him dazzled and difficult to choose.

On normal days, he would just put on some clothes and go out, but this time, things were a little different.

Jiang Zuo has already ordered people to prepare for the fireworks show that he had promised to Chen Qingyun. Tonight, Jiang Zuo will go to the palace to enjoy the beautiful fireworks show with the emperor.

If you don't dress fancy, how can you possibly bring out the atmosphere?

At this time, Master Guo came in, looked at Jiang Zuo's attire, and asked in confusion, "Sir, is there something important going on? You are dressed so formally."

Jiang Zuo said: "The emperor summoned me to the palace."

"This is indeed more grand." said Master Guo.

Jiang Zuo said: "What do you want to say?"

"I still haven't heard any news about Miss Chen in these few days. Please forgive me, sir."

Master Guo said again.

As for Siyue's relationship with the emperor, Master Guo was still in the dark and had no idea about it.

"No need to check." Jiang Zuo said.

Master Guo asked in confusion: "Why?"

"You'll know after a while."

Jiang Zuo did not say it explicitly. Anyway, his current relationship with the empress was still a secret, and not many people knew about it.

After a while, Jiang Zuo finally finished dressing up and went out to the palace.

When we arrived at the palace, it was already dark.

Outside the Yangxin Palace, the chief eunuch said to Jiang Zuo, "Prime Minister Jiang, please wait for a moment. The emperor will be here soon."

Jiang Zuo nodded silently and waited quietly.

A moment later, Chen Qingyun appeared in front of Jiang Zuo. She was wearing a red and white peony silk dress tonight, which made her look elegant and beautiful. She was lightly made up, with her hair in a half bun and a pearl hairpin on her hair that made her look more noble.

There was a crystal clear pendant hanging around her neck, which made her collarbone skin look even whiter.

Jiang Zuo was stunned for a moment by the sight of such a beautiful empress.

"Jiang Zuo?"

Chen Qingyun called softly.

This shout immediately made Jiang Zuo feel quite comfortable.

Jiang Zuo had no resistance at all to the empress's gentle side.

"See the Emperor."

There are quite a few servants around this time, so Jiang Zuo must be serious and respectful.

Looking at Jiang Zuo's gorgeous outfit, Chen Qingyun felt very pleased.

After so many days, Jiang Zuo finally decided to dress up properly.

"Is the fireworks show you mentioned earlier ready?"

Chen Qingyun asked.

She had been looking forward to this for several days.

Recalling that when he was in Anding County, Jiang Zuo had promised to set off fireworks for Chen Qingyun, but because he was busy dealing with the affairs of Mobei, Jiang Zuo forgot about it for a while.

Now that I'm in the capital, I can make up for it.

Jiang Zuo said: "It's all ready. Your Majesty, please come this way."

As they were talking, the group headed towards the attic.

The sixth-floor attic of the palace is the perfect spot for viewing.

Chen Qingyun found a seat and sat down slowly.

"It's time to start."

Jiang Zuo leaned over and called his trusted subordinates.

Soon, everything was ready and a flare was fired to convey the message to Jiang Zuo.

"Your Majesty, it's time to get ready. Please cover your ears." Jiang Zuo reminded so as not to scare Chen Qingyun.

Chen Qingyun said, "No need, just start."

After a while, the palace, which had been quiet, suddenly made loud noises.

The palace maids and eunuchs nearby were startled by the noise.

Only Chen Qingyun looked up at the dazzling fireworks and was distracted for a moment.

Still looks so good.

The sound of fireworks exploded, spreading throughout the capital.

As night fell, the capital city suddenly became lively again.

"Is it thundering?"

Someone asked in confusion, and when he looked out, he never expected that the entire night sky was lit up.

The entire capital city was attracted by this newfangled gadget.

The flowers blooming in the air are so gorgeous.

"What on earth is this?"

Many people praised it.

The fireworks bloomed, and the bright moon and stars in the night sky lost their brightness.

Inside the palace, even the guards in charge of guarding were attracted by this scene for a moment.

It’s such a lively scene that if you don’t know, you might think that the Spring Festival has arrived early.

This time, Jiang Zuo prepared more fireworks than before.

After a long while, the night sky finally became quiet.

Chen Qingyun was still unsatisfied and couldn't help asking, "No more?"

Jiang Zuo said: "Your Majesty, please wait a moment. There is one more time."

After a while, the fireworks continued to bloom, which made Chen Qingyun quite satisfied.

This night is unforgettable for the entire capital city.

When the moonlight once again filled the night sky, the capital city had become quiet again.

There was still some light in Chen Qingyun's eyes.

"I wonder if Your Majesty likes this fireworks display?"

Jiang Zuo asked softly.

Chen Qingyun nodded slightly and remained silent.

It turned out that these gorgeous fireworks were not fleeting. Instead, they often appeared in her mind. Just like now, she still seemed to be in a dream. She turned her head and looked at Jiang Zuo. Everything seemed so unreal.

As a woman in such a high position, Chen Qingyun is busy with government affairs every day. She can only feel so relaxed when she is with Jiang Zuo.

I just hope that the glorious and prosperous era of Yan State today will not be as fleeting as fireworks.

The achievement of unifying the north and the south is enough for Chen Qingyun, and all the credit goes to Jiangzuo.

Chen Qingyun understood this very well.

"Jiang Zuo, I have prepared some delicious food for tonight. Come with me to enjoy it." Chen Qingyun said in a flat tone.

Hearing this, Jiang Zuo glanced at him.

Does this mean that Chen Qingyun took the initiative to invite Jiang Zuo this time?

In this way, Jiangzuo became more energetic.

After leaving the attic, Jiang Zuo followed the empress all the way.

The place we came to this time was actually Chen Qingyun’s bedroom.

Arriving at the palace gate, Jiang Zuo couldn't help but stop when he glanced at the serious guards on both sides.

Without His Majesty's permission, you cannot enter the Emperor's bedroom.

Chen Qingyun suddenly turned around and said, "Prime Minister Jiang, come in."

Jiang Zuo raised his eyebrows: "As you wish."

After saying that, he followed the empress closely again. If there weren't other people around him, Jiang Zuo would have already started to let himself go.

Walking into the huge empress's bedroom, Jiang Zuo couldn't help but look around curiously.

The empress is usually a very serious person, but her bedroom is so girly. The whole style is pink and red, which is quite interesting.

After a while, they arrived at the dining area.

A variety of delicious dishes have already been placed on the dining table.

Normally the empress lives a simple life and is reluctant to eat such delicious food, but tonight is quite special and is specially prepared for Jiang Zuo.

Jiang Zuo came to the dining table, but stood there blankly.

"Prime Minister Jiang, please sit down. You are welcome."

Chen Qingyun said softly.

After receiving His Majesty's order, Jiang Zuo sat down, and then he couldn't help but stare at the beautiful empress...
