The reborn sycophant

"Punish you...to be my queen."

In February and March, spring is shining brightly.Both of them have the looks of dragons and phoenixes, needless to say Wei Chuyan, Zhao Ji is not bad, and because Zhao Ji is a young emperor, no matter where she goes, she is better than anyone else in the world. Capturing people's hearts.The two of them walked under the scorching peach blossoms like this, and they didn't know whether the flowers were more delicate or the people were more beautiful.

A hand was firmly held by Zhao Ji, and Wei Chuyan was sensitively aware that when Zhao Ji asked this sentence, her palm seemed to be nervous except for a little sweat.

Wei Chuyan was also nervous. She was silent for a long time. Seeing that she was silent, Zhao Ji grabbed her hand even more forcefully and said with a forced smile, "I'm just joking with you. Lord Qianyang, no matter how ridiculous I am, I will not be able to marry into the palace openly, let alone canonized as a queen."

Zhao Ji said a long paragraph, but it was just to cover up the disappointment in her heart. Her words were not so much explained to Wei Chuyan, as they were used to deceive herself.

"I know you have a way to get me into the palace."

A lot of peach blossoms fell on the ground, white, pink, or as bright as fire. These are produced by different varieties of peach trees. Some trees are low, some trees can cover the sky, and the fragrance of peach blossoms is floating around. As far as Wei Chuyan is concerned, none of these are as sweet as Zhao Ji.Zhao Ji took Wei Chuyan through the forest where countless rare peach trees gathered, but his mood was not as steady as her steps.

She was even more flustered when Wei Chuyan said it out of her mind.

Wei Chuyan's hand was painfully pinched by Zhao Ji, and she knew it was a sign of Zhao Ji's nervousness, so she held Zhao Ji back comfortingly, her eyes covered under the black cloth were very gentle, like a slightly moist spring breeze.

She wasn't actually angry.

"I have been away from the palace for two years. Of course, many people in the court know me during these two years. Have you ever thought about changing my identity to 'Kunyin Lord', so that you can You carried me into the palace openly and squarely."

Zhao Ji had indeed thought about this. She was not someone who could endure parting for a long time. Wei Chuyan's departure made her suffer terribly. When Wei Chuyan returned to Chang'an, she was overjoyed, and her first thought But he wants to keep Wei Chuyan by her side forever.

May I ask, for an emperor, what position is closer and closer to her than the queen?

Her question was not a joke, nor was it impulsive, it was the expression of her real thoughts.

"I... If I say, I can perfectly forge a new identity for you, I can even give you a false identity that is so honorable that you can be sealed, will you enter the palace to accompany me?"

This idea was originally only in Zhao Ji's mind. She knew that Wei Chuyan would not agree to her doing this, so she only dared to test it secretly. But if Wei Chuyan did not show obvious resistance just now, she would have a second chance. Second and third lobbying.

She is a patient hunter and determined to capture her prey.

But Wei Chuyan is also very smart, she knows what Zhao Ji is up to, and therefore, she will not give Zhao Ji a second or third chance.

"Ji, you actually know, I won't be willing."

Zhao Ji listened to her words, his face darkened, and he kicked the stone in front of him without saying a word.

Wei Chuyan knew that she was unhappy, but some things had to be explained early in the morning, otherwise, in the end, both parties would be hurt.

"Angry?"

If it was placed in the previous life, she and Zhao Ji would probably end up in a big fight when they encountered such a topic.But now Wei Chuyan is not as stubborn or even pedantic as before, and she has lost a lot of stubbornness, and Zhao Ji, Zhao Ji has not developed such a self-centered temperament, so many things have the possibility of peaceful resolution .

When two equally proud people meet, their heads will be broken.In their previous lives, they were too proud. One was an emperor who would not bow his head, and the other was a straight and tough civil servant. When two people met together, they would not tell each other if there was a misunderstanding, and they would not tell each other about any arrangements. They always felt that they were against each other. OK, but why not say it?Why did it end up like that in the end?

Sometimes she also wondered if she made such a choice because of her distrust of Zhao Ji?

She doesn't believe in the emperor, and doesn't believe that the emperor can rescue her, does she?

"How can I be so narrow-minded? I'm just a little bit unhappy. You are not a person with a lot of power. When you are an official, you have a feeling of being at peace with the situation. Why can't you let go of the court and be me?" Where is your queen?" Zhao Ji said in a low voice, her voice was still a little uncomfortable, and to Wei Chuyan's ears, it was like a kitten scratching her.

Wei Chuyan was waiting for an explanation, and Zhao Ji said in a soft voice: "I am alone in the palace, and I am very lonely. Look at this huge palace city, so many palace people come and go, busy, It seems to be very lively, but does anyone dare to come in front of me? Does anyone dare to talk to me? I will be lonely too, Wei Chuyan, you are not in the palace, how pitiful I am."

She magnified her pity. In fact, she grew up in the palace and was used to this kind of life. Is she lonely?In fact, not necessarily, because the emperor is like this, living a life full of stars and moons, but unable to communicate with others. Of course, she cannot communicate with others. , How can people easily guess her heart?And compared to father, she is already very good, she has Wei Chuyan.

She doesn't think there's anything wrong with living like this, if it's not good, why are there so many people vying for this position?But if she could live a better life for herself, why didn't she fight for it?

Wei Chuyan just laughed, she had been fooled by this man many times, how could she not know what that little fox was planning?She didn't waver at all: "I don't value power, but I value you."

Zhao Ji was hit by her sudden love words, and couldn't help laughing: "Then you stay in the palace and be the queen."

"Aji, I haven't finished yet, so listen to me."

Zhao Ji's footsteps became brisk, and she staggered Wei Chuyan, then suddenly remembered that this person was invisible, so she slowed down again, and turned her head to look at the woman's white as jade profile.

On Wei Chuyan's collarbone, there is still a red mark left by her, but the skirt is tightly covered, otherwise she would be able to see it.

"Because I care about you, I can't ask you to face those things alone. Being an emperor is very hard work. It has been two years, and you have worked so hard, but you have only just recovered a small half of your power. After that, there are so many things to do. Do it." In the past two years, although Wei Chuyan was in southern Xinjiang, she paid attention to the court situation all the time. It can be said that after many things, she still has her handwriting.At this time, she analyzed the situation between the DPRK and China very clearly.

Zhao Ji hadn't corresponded with her in the past six months, and the two had often mentioned the court situation before, so Zhao Ji was not surprised by what she said.

"Besides, the Sangong's roots are deep. If you want to support new ministers to fight against them, there are only two choices." The spring breeze is warm and lulls people to sleep, but Wei Chuyan's words are like an extremely useful dose of refreshment, making Zhao The more Ji listened, the brighter his eyes became.

"One is relying on my relatives. But you already know the bet I made with my mother. I worked so hard to get my mother to say 'don't meddle'. Ji, you just feel sorry for me and don't support your uncle's family."

Zhao Ji: "Could it be that you expected it earlier?"

She is indeed having a headache about the Sangong, not that these old ministers have different intentions, but that it is a fact that they have power and self-respect. There is a saying: others are allowed to sleep soundly on the side of the couch, and she has been dormant for two years. It's time to grab it in her hands. The power collection at the beginning of this year was nothing compared to what she would do in the future. Not to mention, the tiger talisman that fell into the hands of the Taiwei and the doctor Yushi and the prime minister She must take back the power to select officials in her hands.

The way of the emperor is checks and balances. If she wants to suppress the arrogance of these few, she has to support another candidate, but she really didn't think about this candidate.

Originally, Wei Chuyan was the best choice, but Wei Chuyan disappeared for half a year, and the foundation of Chuyan itself was not deep enough. Zhao Ji wanted to promote her, but if she promoted too much, she might be blocked again, so she turned to After thinking about it, I considered the possibility of supporting my uncle's family.

If you want to support Wanjia, it's too late now.

At that time, she had just ascended the throne, and she was very afraid of her relatives after hearing what her father said before she ascended the throne. Therefore, although she promoted the Wan family a little bit, she did not give them monstrous power. Not to mention whether they can find a reason, I am afraid that the Wan family is not as close to her as before because of their grudges.

If the queen mother is in court, this grievance can be easily eliminated, but judging from the letters brought back by Wei Chuyan, the queen mother probably intends to live outside the palace. Although this is against the rules, earlier, the queen mother said " She left the palace on the grounds of going to the palace to recuperate." Since the empress dowager's phoenix body was involved, no courtier would dare to say anything even if she had been raised outside for ten or twenty years.

But for Zhao Ji, Empress Dowager Wan's leaving the palace is both a good thing and a bad thing, it just depends on whether she wants to support her relatives.

"When your Majesty was dying, I was protecting you outside the palace. I heard a general idea of ​​what he said to you. His warning was not unreasonable, so I, so when you asked me to send the Queen Mother to southern Xinjiang for medical treatment, I I didn't refuse. I want to find out, at that time, in the heart of the empress, was you more important or the Wan family." Wei Chuyan caught a petal that was blown on her face by the wind, and said to Zhao Ji: " She is not your biological mother after all."

Something was forcefully peeled off.
