Harem Daily Life

Tao Yanyan felt extremely aggrieved, and showed a hurt expression to Princess Yan: "If I hadn't watched carefully, how would I know that Princess Yan actually had the hobby of poaching people? I trusted you and asked you to negotiate with my Majesty alone, but I didn't expect that you actually wanted to... Humph, at the birthday banquet of His Majesty that day, you clearly said that it was not your intention to remarry His Majesty, but your confession today sounded very urgent. We are here today to discuss the apology and decide on the amount. Why is Princess Yan talking about something else? My Majesty has already said that he doesn't like you and has no personal feelings for you, but you are still clinging to him. What on earth are you doing?"

With an attitude of protecting his cub, Tao Yanyan stood in front of He Linzhang with a fierce look.

He Linzhang raised his eyebrows, feeling extremely relieved. The little concubine still cared about his life and death.

In fact, Tao Yanyan was seriously considering the possibility of taking over the Princess of Yan and her half of the Kingdom of Yan behind the screen just now, and she was indeed excited when large sums of money flashed through her mind.

Unfortunately, this idea was dispelled after she rushed out because she saw He Linzhang's helpless resistance.

He didn't like this childhood sweetheart at all, and was afraid that it was inappropriate to force him to take someone in for money. In addition, the Princess of Yan was very aggressive. She couldn't tolerate the fact that a poacher actually took the initiative to say that she had a hobby of eavesdropping, so she chose to confront him head-on to maintain the reputation of the harem of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The Princess of Yan's emotions, which she had buried deep in her heart for many years, were heard by an irrelevant person, and she was now so angry that she wanted to kill someone.

"I was talking to His Majesty, and you, a concubine and a minister, shamelessly eavesdropped. You are committing treason and must be severely punished today!" The Princess of Yan revealed the majesty of a superior and forced He Linzhang.

Tao Yanyan clenched his fists and said, "You still want to punish us, what gives you the right?" After that, he took He Linzhang's arm and said, "This is my king. We are hiding behind to protect my king and prevent him from being bullied by you."

"Besides, you took the opportunity to discuss official business today and harassed my Majesty when no one was around. I want to sue you for harassment!"

He Linzhang: "..."

Is there such a sin in the world? I am ignorant.

Princess Yan felt bitter and sad, angry and annoyed: "Your Majesty, you must give me an explanation for what happened today, otherwise I will never let it go!"

He Linzhang glanced at the concubine beside him and said, "Don't look at anything indecent, don't listen to anything indecent, forget everything today."

Tao Yanyan nodded vigorously: "I will definitely not keep any bad memories in mind, Your Majesty, rest assured."

He Linzhang glanced at Princess Yan and said, "No one will remember what happened today, Princess Yan can rest assured!"

Princess Yan didn't expect him to be so gentle, and said dissatisfiedly: "She knows my secret, she is not so easy to fool."

He Linzhang narrowed his eyes: "So what do you want?"

The tone was as cold as ice in winter, extremely chilly.

Princess Yan grew up with He Linzhang and had never seen him so cold. She was shocked: "I am Princess Pingning and the Queen of Yan. She is just a concubine, and Your Majesty is protecting her like this and letting her ride on my head?"

Princess Yan's heart was almost broken.

He Linzhang sneered: "She is my concubine, my bedmate, and the person with whom I have the closest relationship. If I don't protect her, who should I protect? What's more, you have crossed the line in today's matter. Yan Yan does not need to bear any responsibility."

After saying that, He Linzhang held Tao Yanyan's hand and said, "The compensation for sending troops to Yan State is set at 80,000 taels of silver. Princess Yan, please go back and think it over. I will give you three days to pay it as soon as possible. The soldiers of our Great Zhou have received a transfer order recently and will all be withdrawn to the territory of Great Zhou. Yan State still needs Princess to go back to manage it. If there is nothing else, leave Beijing early!"

After He Linzhang finished speaking, he took Tao Yanyan’s hand and left the imperial study.

Ning Yuanhou stood up from the ground, patted his knees, and said to the defeated Princess Yan with a smile: "I will escort Princess Yan out of the palace. Three days later, when you have the silver ready, I will go and get it."

Princess Yan calmed down and said suspiciously, "I didn't expect that Ningyuan Hou and Princess Tao have such a good relationship that they can eavesdrop together!"

Ningyuan Hou smiled and said, "Princess Tao recognized me as her uncle, and she is her own child, so of course our relationship is good! But Princess Yan, don't worry, I didn't hear a word of what you said. In my heart, you are still the iron-fisted queen of Yan."

Looking at the smooth and worldly-wise Ningyuan Marquis, Princess Yan could only curse him a thousand times in her heart.

Among the army that went to attack the State of Yan, one of the deputy generals was Gu Yi, the eldest son of the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion. He was a young hero, awe-inspiring, and had won many military exploits. The Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion was also a noble family in the Great Zhou and should not be offended.

As the deal failed, Princess Yan had no choice but to throw her sleeves and stride out of the imperial study, her face as dark as the bottom of a pot.

Tao Yanyan was walking in the Imperial Garden while being held by He Linzhang. The two held hands tightly and looked very intimate.

Tao Yanyan couldn't break free and whispered, "Your Majesty, didn't you say that we should meet less or not at all in the future? So as not to be discovered. But what you are doing now, isn't it telling others that you have a good relationship with me?"

He Linzhang turned his head to glance at her. The little concubine's eyes were full of confusion. She was so soft and cute, very adorable.

He Linzhang squeezed her hand and said, "I suddenly can't bear to distance myself from you, even if I have to pretend to be distant from you."

The sudden love words successfully made Tao Yanyan's cheeks and ears blush pink. She gently scratched He Linzhang's palm: "I didn't expect that His Majesty suddenly lost his memory and unlocked the skill of love words. He used to be as cold as a flower on the mountain, but now he has a layer of fireworks of an ordinary person."

He Linzhang curled his lips: "Does Yan Yan like the old me or the current me?"

Tao Yanyan thought about it seriously, and took He Linzhang's arm: "As long as Your Majesty is always handsome and always treats me well, then I will like Your Majesty, no matter in the past, now or in the future."

He Linzhang frowned slightly: "Yan Yan only cares about my appearance?"

Tao Yanyan burst out laughing: "Your Majesty has asked me the same question before. Yes, Your Majesty is handsome and extraordinary, and I am so fascinated by him!"

He Linzhang was speechless. Shouldn't it be the imperial demeanor that attracted her?

In late autumn, only osmanthus flowers were still blooming in the Imperial Garden. The sweet fragrance of osmanthus flowers was refreshing, just like Tao Yanyan's happy heart at the moment.

Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long. As the two were admiring the sweet-scented osmanthus, an inopportune voice rang out: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

He Linzhang looked up and saw a beautiful woman looking at him with a sweet smile.

He searched his mind and thought, this person seems to be Concubine Li?

Tao Yanyan said: "Is Li Cairen recovered so quickly? Her face has recovered well."
