Chen Shilei held Zhang Zheng's hand all the way until he reached the palace where the birthday banquet was held.

"Chen Shilei, are you coming out blatantly?" Zhang Zheng asked.

"What does 'coming out' mean?"

Chen Shilei pulled Zhang Zheng to sit down.

"Just tell others that you like men."

"I don't like men, I just like you, and you happen to be a man."

Chen Shilei looked at Zhang Zheng and said seriously.

Zhang Zheng was at a loss for Chen Shilei's sudden confession.

"When did you become so talkative?"

"After meeting you."

Chen Shilei looked complacent.

"What the hell are you proud of?" Zhang Zheng pinched Chen Shilei's face with both hands and rubbed it back and forth. "Laugh, laugh, I'll make you laugh."

Chen Shilei wasn't angry either, and instead cooperated with Zhang Zheng to make various expressions.

The intimate interaction between the two was fully seen by Heli and Sakura who came in from behind.The seeds of jealousy took root in the heart.

"General."

He Li interrupted Chen Shilei and the others.

"Li'er and Sister Sakura are here."

Hearing He Li's voice, Zhang Zheng took his hands away from Chen Shilei's face and looked at them with some embarrassment.

"Well. Sit down in the back."

Chen Shilei ordered.

"Yes."

"Hey, Chen Shilei, why don't your two concubines come in?" Zhang Zheng asked curiously when he didn't see Mei Jue.

"According to the regulations, only those who are above the concubine can enter the palace. The rest of the family members can only stay outside." Chen Shilei explained.

"Oh, it seems that I, a slave, have to sit outside. I can just be with Meijue."

With that said, Zhang Zheng made a gesture to get up.

"Where are you going? Who else said you are a slave? You are my wife, Chen Shilei, the mistress of the general's mansion—the general's wife." Chen Shilei took Zhang Zheng's hand.

"Bah, shameless. Who, who is your wife? I'm a man." Zhang Zheng blushed.

"Wife is just a name."

"No, I will be your husband!"

"What a beautiful idea! The husband can only be done by me."

"Why?"

"Because the initiative is in my hands."

As he spoke, Chen Shilei raised his eyebrows at Zhang Zheng ambiguously.

"Shameless, stinky rascal!"

Zhang Zheng scolded.

"I'm a hooligan only to you, don't worry."

"Chen Shilei!"

"Okay, let's stop teasing you. The emperor and the queen mother should be coming soon, and I will ask the emperor to marry us later."

Chen Shilei said seriously.

"Isn't that a bit too ostentatious?"

"I, Chen Shilei, marry a wife. How can I be less public?"

"Chen Shilei, it's better to keep a low profile. How about we just sneak out of the scene in private?"

"Marriage is a great happy event in life, so it should be lively! With me here, don't be afraid, I will take care of what happens." Chen Shilei held Zhang Zheng's hand slightly.

"As you like."

Zhang Zheng leaned on the chair and said.

The birthday banquet began after Chen Yan accompanied the queen mother.

But for some reason, Zhang Zheng always felt that everyone was watching him.

"Chen Shilei, is there something on my face? Is there a hole in my clothes or is it inappropriate?" Zhang Zheng asked.

"No." Chen Shilei said after looking at it.

"Then why do you keep looking at me?" Zhang Zheng was puzzled.

"I don't know. Why do you care so much?"

With that said, Chen Shilei picked up a piece of pastry and stuffed it into Zhang Zheng's mouth.

"Ugh—Chen Shilei! Do you want to choke me to death?"

Zhang Zheng took a sip of tea in a hurry.

"There's so much good food, and you're focusing on other people."

"No way!"

"Then hurry up and eat something. People can watch it if they like it."

"Oh."

Zhang Zheng obediently ate the food on the table.

After a while, Prime Minister He Shen said, "General Chen, is it a little wrong for you to let a servant sit next to you and let your wife sit behind you?"

Seeing her father finally speak, Heli, who had been giving Heshen winks, showed a smug smile, and thought: Now let me see how the general will protect you, a vixen!

But Chen Shilei didn't seem to hear He Shen's words, and drank on his own.

"Chen Shilei, the old fox seems to be talking to you." Zhang Zheng said.

"'Old Fox'? That's a good name." Chen Shilei chuckled. "Don't care about him, it will be all right if he opens his mouth."

Zhang Zheng shook his shoulders and continued to eat his delicacies.

"General Chen, the prime minister is up to you to speak, why don't you respond?" Li Wei asked in a louder voice.

Chen Shilei still ignored them, bowing his head and whispering to Zhang Zheng from time to time.

"It's really outrageous! Your Majesty, look at how arrogant General Chen is!" Mr. Wang Jie stood up and complained to the emperor.

The emperor Chen Yan looked helpless, his younger brother really would find work for him too much.

"Shi Lei." Chen Yan said.

"The younger brother is here."

Chen Shilei immediately replied.

Seeing this, the face of the Prime Minister's faction was not to mention how ugly.

"The prime minister and the others are talking to you, why don't you pay attention?"

"Brother Huihuang, it may be that the sound of the live instruments was a bit loud, and I didn't hear what the prime minister and the two adults said for a while. I don't know what the prime minister said?" Chen Shilei looked at He Shen.

So, He Shen repeated what he had just said with a dark face.

After hearing this, Chen Shilei was silent for a while, and said:

"It is indeed wrong."

When He Li heard what Chen Shilei said, let alone how happy she was, she would definitely be able to sit next to the general.

"Then the general will give him the status to sit in this position." After speaking, Chen Shilei bowed his hands to Chen Yan: "My brother has a heartless request."

"Let's hear it." Chen Yan said with a smile.

"The younger brother wants to ask the emperor to give him a marriage, and allow Nuzheng to become the younger brother's wife, the mistress of the general's mansion."

At some point, the music stopped, and Chen Shilei's voice just reached everyone in the palace.

The whole audience was silent, only Zhang Zheng was eating what was on his plate calmly, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.

"Shi Lei, are you serious?" Chen Yan asked.

"Yes." Chen Shilei said firmly.

"Ridiculous! I won't admit it, how can a man become the head of the Chen family?"

Mrs. Chen suddenly appeared at the gate of the palace and said loudly.

Sister Chunhong helped Mrs. Chen into the main hall, walked in front of Chen Shilei, slapped him vigorously, and angrily said: "You are an unfilial son, you said such a rebellious thing in front of the Holy Majesty and civil and military officials. Come! Don't kneel down yet!"

Chen Shilei knelt down on both knees.

"Quickly admit your mistake to the Queen Mother and the Emperor!"

"My son is right!" Chen Shilei said word by word.

"You rebellious son! You fell in love with a man, and you still say that you are not wrong?" Mrs. Chen raised her crutches, and made a gesture to hit Chen Shilei.

"If the son says he's right, he's right!" Chen Shilei straightened his back.

"You—I will beat you to death today, you unfilial son!" Mrs. Chen swung down her cane, and hit Chen Shilei heavily on the back.

The latter clenched his teeth, did not make any sound, and kept his back straight.

"Are you wrong?"

"My son is right! My son just likes slavery!"

"I'll kill you bastard!"

Just as Mrs. Chen raised her crutches and was about to hit her a second time, Zhang Zheng stood up and took her hand.

"You dog slave, are you rebelling?" Mrs. Chen glared at Zhang Zheng angrily.

"Madam, Shi Lei is your son." Zhang Zheng said slowly.

"Of course the old man knows. The old man is teaching his son a lesson, and you want a slave to take care of him?"

"The old lady is right. If I were a slave, then of course I can't control it. But now, Shi Lei is my man, do you think I should control it or not?" Zhang Zheng said every word.

"Your man? Pooh, what a shame! What right do you have to say that?"

"Emmmm, is the general's mistress qualified enough?" Zhang Zheng said with a smile.

"The mistress of the house? You're afraid you're going to laugh yourself to death. If you don't agree, don't even think about entering my Chen family!"

"Then what if it's the emperor's intention?" Zhang Zheng still said with a smile on his face.

"What a big tone. You are a little slave, why would the emperor listen to you?" Mrs. Chen looked at Zhang Zheng contemptuously.

"Slavery, you step down first. Brother Huang, my wife is talking nonsense, please don't blame Brother Huang." Chen Shilei begged on his knees.

Zhang Zheng pushed away Mrs. Chen's hand, squatted down, and said softly to Chen Shilei:

"Chen Shilei, let me ask you one last time, are you really, are you really sure you want to be with me?"

"Ok!"

Chen Shilei looked at Zhang Zheng fiercely, nodded heavily and said.

"it is good."

Zhang Zheng stood up, went to the emperor and knelt down.

"Your Majesty, I wonder if you still remember the promise you made to the little one?"

Zhang Zheng took out the jade pendant that Chen Yan rewarded that day and asked.

All the people watching the play were shocked by this part of Zhang Zheng again, and they looked like the emperor had something to do with this slave.

Chen Yan looked a little embarrassed, coughed a little, and said:

"Of course I remember."

"Since the emperor remembers, the little one wants to ask the emperor to help the little one and General Chen."

Zhang Zheng put the jade pendant in front of him and kowtowed.

"There is only one chance, are you sure you have thought it through?" Chen Yan asked.

"If you go back to the emperor, you should think about it."

"You have to know that you can ask me for official position or wealth."

"If you go back to the emperor, these are all things outside your body, and you don't care about the small ones. Please let the emperor do it." Zhang Zheng asked again.

"Okay. Since it's your request, then I can't break my promise. Then—"

At this moment, all the candles in the palace were suddenly extinguished.All of a sudden, the ladies panicked and noisy footsteps came from the palace.

After a while, the palace people lit candles, and the dark palace was lit up again.Under the command of several generals and adults, the chaotic scene calmed down.

However, when the ministers returned to their respective positions, everyone was horrified to find that the emperor who was still in his position had disappeared.Along with it, Zhang Zheng, who was kneeling on the ground before, and two people from the Wa Kingdom—Honda Takeshi and Sakura.

Suddenly, an arrow flew in and shot at Chen Shilei's feet.With a gloomy face, he pulled out the arrow and took off the note tied to it to check it.

The note reads:

Chen Shilei, if you want to save someone, take your Tiger Talisman and go to the west cliff alone.Remember, you are alone.
