"Huaifang!" Zhao Yanzhi was shocked and ran over immediately.But the distance was too far, Xie Qing was caught by Sima Tong before he fell to the ground.

"Huaifang, what's wrong with you?" Zhao Yanzhi asked with a trembling voice.In fact, Sima Tong just supported Xie Qing's back stiffly with both hands, trying his best to keep him from falling down, but Zhao Yanzhi still didn't like it.He glared at Sima Tong angrily, and grabbed Xie Qing into his arms.

Sima Tong wanted to cry, but he was the closest, so he couldn't let Xie Qing fall to the ground.

"I'm fine, I'm just a little dizzy." Xie Qing weakened all of a sudden, making Zhao Yan's heart ache.Zhao Yanzhi asked someone to get a car for Xie Qing, and then with a radiant face, he boasted that he was tired and climbed in.After tossing for a while, Xie Qing had already fallen asleep.Zhao Yanzhi took off his cloak and covered Xie Qing's body, then wrapped him and his clothes into his arms.

Zhao Yan only gently stroked the shallow wound on Xie Qing's face with his fingertips, feeling very sad.She had prepared all the words to reprimand him, but now she was reluctant to wake him up, Zhao Yanzhi sighed, actually she didn't want to be angry when she saw him.

The half-hearted military doctor accompanying him said that Xie Qing was just overworked and nothing serious, Zhao Yanzhi was very skeptical.But there is no way, where can he turn into a genius doctor in this vast desert?Fortunately, Xie Qing's breathing was steady, but his complexion was a bit off, so he had to rush back to Sanggan as soon as possible, so that the accompanying imperial doctor could take a good look.

Zhao Yanzhi thought Xie Qing was walking too fast for a while, and thought it was going too slow for him to see a doctor, and Sima Tong sweated all over him.Later Sima Tong came up with an idea: he sent a team of personal soldiers, hurried back to Sanggan to pick up the imperial physician, and came to treat Xie Qing.As for the brigade, just keep a moderate speed.Zhao Yanzhi also thought this idea was good, and for the first time since arriving in Dai County, he looked at Sima Tong with a more relaxed gaze.

Zhao Yanzhi had had enough tossing around, went back to the car and hugged Xie Qing tightly, and never came out again.

When they entered the territory of Daidi, the group of soldiers sent out by Sima Tong finally "suppressed" several tortured old imperial doctors who were still half alive and joined them.Zhao Yanzhi asked someone to get them some water to drink, and hurriedly stuffed them all into Xie Qing's car.

The results of the imperial doctor's consultation were quite different from those of the military doctors who believed that "as long as you are alive, you will be fine". Zhao Yan was terrified when he heard the loss of both energy and blood.So much so that Xie Qing didn't wait for the violent storm that he believed would hit his head and face at all. Instead, Zhao Yanzhi, who was so gentle and unbelievably gentle, carefully asked him what was wrong with him.

To be honest, after Xie Qing woke up, he saw that Zhao Yanzhi who was in the same car with him was very uncomfortable, especially Zhao Yanzhi was still hugging him tightly, which reminded him of the days and nights in Zhao Yanzhi's bedroom not long ago, and his whole body All froze.As a result, Zhao Yan only booed and asked for warmth in sincerity and fear, and the majestic emperor made a small fuss, which made Xie Qing really feel distressed.

"Huaifang, this car bumps badly. I'll hold you, and you will feel better." Zhao Yanzhi felt that the person in his arms gradually stopped resisting, and was overjoyed, so he couldn't help but hug him tighter.

Xie Qing struggled to sit up, Zhao Yan could not help frowning: "Huaifang, you are not in good health, what are you doing?"

"Your Majesty and I ride in the same car, which is a horse ride. A horse ride must look like a horse ride." Xie Qing's voice was weak, and he seemed to be struggling while sitting.

Zhao Yanzhi had no choice but to give in: "Lie down, lie down, I'll just go out and ride a horse." Without any explanation, he pushed Xie Qing down, and wrapped him tightly with his cloak.

When the group finally returned to Sanggan, it was already late at night.Sima Feng had asked someone to arrange the emperor's residence a long time ago. Before he could speak, Zhao Yanzhi said to him casually: "It's getting late, so the eunuch doesn't need to bother arranging a residence for me. I won't stay here for long. Xie Xiaowei’s family can make do with it for a few days, there is really no need to mobilize teachers.”

His words were reasonable and sympathetic to his subordinates, and the image of a good emperor came to everyone's eyes.Many years later, the people of Daijun are still full of praise for Zhao Yanzhi, no one wants to get it, he just wants to be by the side of the one he loves.

Xie Qing's illness is actually not serious, after two days of rest, he recovered.It's just that the root cause is physical weakness, so it needs to be recuperated.

Three days later, Zhao Yanzhi returned to Chang'an with an army of [-] troops and numerous trophies, and took Xie Qing away.Sima Tong is already familiar with the affairs of the Dai County. After Sima Feng's handover, he will return to Chang'an and resume his original post.

The Zhou army won a complete victory in this battle, Zhao Yanzhi was overjoyed, and rewarded the soldiers wantonly.Sima Fengyi, Marquis of Ruyin, enfeoffed [-] households; Marquis of Jinyang, Shen Buyi enfeoffed [-] households; Xie Qing and Wei Zhi made great achievements in the surprise attack on Langya City, and Xie Qing was enfeoffed as Marquis of Beiping, Wei Zhi was enfeoffed as Marquis of Xuancheng; Sima Tong was promoted Daijun Taishou was awarded a thousand pieces of gold; others also received their own rewards, either bounties or titles, the one who showed Xie Qing the direction thought of Li Shang, the whole family got rid of their humble status and was awarded a rank of nobility.

In March, Mrs. Zhou went through all kinds of difficulties and dangers, and gave birth to a daughter. The emperor was overjoyed.It is said that after reading a lot of books, he chose the word "Yu" as the name for his beloved daughter, hoping that she will live a happy life.Mrs. Zhou's childbirth was extremely dangerous and her body was injured, so it may not be easy for her to have children in the future.Zhao Yan only feared that she would be wronged, so he rewarded her with countless rare treasures, and the Zhou family was even soft on accepting the rewards.Zhao Yanzhi still thinks it's not enough.

In April, Zhao Yan only wanted to make Mrs. Zhou a father-in-law, but was opposed by Lu Zhiyuan, the official censor, Shi Xieqing, the chief minister, and others.Xie Qing argues that only the empress's father and the empress dowager's brothers can be enshrined as marquises. They can be regarded as Marquis Enzehou, a concubine's father's family, what kind of serious relatives are they?What's the point of being a marquis?Lu Zhiyuan even brought up the matter of King Guangling's private minting of coins, which had been a headache for Zhao Yanzhi for several months, which made Zhao Yanzhi very annoyed.

Zhao Yanzhi, who wished to pluck all the stars and moons from the sky for his daughter, was hit hard.Maybe it's because he's a father for the first time and loves him deeply, or maybe it's because Xie Qing has been sternly facing Zhao Yanzhi with Zhang Zhichen's face during this time, which finally exhausted his patience. In short, the emperor was furious and scolded Xie Qing face to face. After a meal.

He has grown up with that little kid behind Xie Qing's butt since he was a child, and he has grown into a willful, perverse and reckless emperor.He has concubines, male favourites, and daughters, so he no longer needs to depend on Xie Qing for life; as the emperor, he doesn't have to ask for it, and rare treasures can be thrown away like worn-out shoes.In short, everyone in the court smelled something different: the Zhou family was becoming more and more respectable, and Xie Qing, the former emperor's close minister, had probably fallen out of favor.

Xie Qing became more and more silent, and often stayed away from illness, Zhao Yan just ignored him.It is said that one time Gu Shenxing couldn't see it and wanted to mediate a few words, but Zhao Yanzhi refuted it shamelessly.

August, Empress Xie's birthday.Although the queen is too young and has always been in name only, Zhao Yanzhi has always done a good job on the surface.This year is no exception.Since it was not a big birthday, a family banquet was held, and Xie's family members and several concubines were invited to accompany her.

Xie Qing also came.

Empress Xie is closest to her elder brother.When she saw Xie Qing, she immediately burst into a smile, and Xie Qing's pale face couldn't help showing a little smile.

There are ever-burning lamps lit everywhere in Chengde Hall, but the flames flicker in the end.Zhao Yanzhi's face was hidden in the shadows, no one could see the deep love in his eyes when he stared at Xie Qing.

There are quite a few people in Zhao Yanzhi's harem, but not many with high status.Xie's family also only came to Xie Xiang and Mrs. Xie, and Xie Qing and Xie Yuan brothers.Therefore, there were not many people at the banquet.The atmosphere of the banquet is very good, although it is not grand, but it is more enjoyable.

Xie Xiang's birthday banquet included a procedure, the concubine offered a birthday gift to the queen, and either sang or danced, just to cheer up the little gentleman.Before it even started, Mrs. Zhou said that she was not feeling well, and pestered Zhao Yanzhi to go back to rest in a coquettish manner.Although Zhao Yanzhi doted on her, he did not lose his sense of propriety, and finally remembered not to disgrace his wife.That's why it's hard to say anything, so she was left behind.

Among Zhao Yanzhi's concubines, Mrs. Zhou had the highest status, so she was the last one to pay homage to the queen.Seeing the concubines racking their brains in front of them, Zhou looked at Empress Bo and smiled, feeling very disdainful.I thought to myself that a child with no teeth, what's the use of currying favor with her, and don't look at whose hands the real power is now.

Soon it will be Mrs. Zhou's turn.Mrs. Zhou was so contemptuous to Empress Xie that she didn't even bother to cover it up. She didn't intend to sing and dance for the Queen at all. She felt that she was the biological mother of the only child of the Emperor, and doing so would really demean her dignity.Therefore, Madam Zhou gave the congratulatory gift a perfunctory salute to Empress Xie, and then said: "Your Majesty, Zhonggong, my concubine is not feeling well after giving birth and is really unable to sing and dance. I hope Zhonggong will understand."

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the empress and Xie's family were not very good-looking.Zhao Yanzhi felt bored for a while, thinking that the women of the Zhou family were so brainless that they could compete with each other. They were singing and dancing happily last night to make him happy. Today, it’s okay to talk about postpartum discomfort and open your eyes. They refused to make up a good one.If it weren't for the big plan ahead, this kind of woman really didn't want to see it.

Although Empress Xie is young, she is not stupid.Mrs. Zhou's pet is so spoiled that she doesn't pay attention to Zhong Gong, there is really no way to make her ignore it.But the upbringing was there, although she didn't hesitate, she didn't get angry.

Xie Qing loves his younger sister the most.Seeing Xie Xiang's expression of restraint, he felt a pain in his heart for no reason.He has always been calm and steady, but when he saw his younger sister being wronged, all his rationality was thrown away.Xie Qing couldn't help but sneered coldly: "Disrespect the mistress, Mrs. Zhou is really a good tutor!"
