In the end, Zhao Yanzhi didn't give out those two precious safety buttons as a meeting gift, because Empress Xie and Xie Qing agreed that it was too eye-catching.Reminiscent of being framed again and again because of being favored by his father when he was young, Zhao Yan only completely dismissed the idea.

However, regarding the use of the pair of jade buckles, Zhao Yan only had other plans.

After the afternoon meal, Zhao Yan only thoughtfully left Xie Qing and his brother and sister to talk about their private affairs, while he returned to Chengde Hall to handle government affairs.

Empress Xie has been in poor health since she gave birth prematurely. Although Ji Chengchu took two months of intensive care, there are still a lot of root causes left behind.Now, if you bother a little bit, you will feel uncomfortable.

Xie Qing looked at her sister's sallow complexion and felt distressed.Thinking of Ji Chengchu's frank confession to himself that "the middle palace hurts the root, fearing that his life will not last forever", now it seems that it is not a lie, Xie Qing's heart sank even more.

After thanking him, he didn't care much.Now she doesn't worry about it or bother her mind. Apart from taking care of her body, she just coaxes her children, which is much more relaxed than before.Xie Qing felt that if she could continue like this, she might be able to live sick and old.

"Brother, you have been back to Chang'an for two months, why didn't you go home to have a look?" Just after dinner, Xie Qing accompanied his sister for a walk in the courtyard, talking by the way.

"I'm back, I came back after lunch. I just came back not long ago." Xie Qing said to his sister listlessly, thinking of that unpleasant afternoon.

After thanking him, he smiled: "Why, looking at you like this, sister-in-law is angry with brother?"

Xie Qing let out a long sigh, and didn't intend to hide his thanks. After he knew his sister, she liked to hear such small gossip.There's nothing wrong with letting her have fun with her own family affairs.

Sure enough, after thanking her, she beamed happily after hearing it: "Brother, you left your sister-in-law at home alone for so many days, of course she will be angry! How about this, let me help you? Tomorrow I will ask someone to ask my sister-in-law to bring the child." Come on, let me tell you something good for you, and you can just coax her." As he spoke, he couldn't help but added narrowly: "I will testify for you that you are not a 'little vixen'."

That night Zhao Yan seemed to be very busy, Xie Qing was so happy to pretend to be stupid, and ran back to sleep in the side hall room where he used to live as a waiter.

Half asleep and half awake, it seemed that someone had squeezed into his not-so-spacious couch and pulled him towards him.Xie Qing vaguely felt that it was a familiar embrace, so he subconsciously leaned over and slept peacefully all night.

Zhao Yan didn't see Xie Qing in the dormitory, and his face sank immediately; when he learned that Xie Qing went back to the side hall to sleep alone, his face was completely dark.Zhao Yan only counted the time, Xie Qing probably fell asleep by now.Although he was angry, he was reluctant to wake him up, so he ran to squeeze his little bed with Xie Qing very aggrieved, feeling extremely aggrieved.

However, when Xie Qing leaned towards him dazedly and defenselessly, and nestled into his arms in a habitual posture, Zhao Yanzhi's heart was immediately filled with joy and satisfaction, and all unhappiness came to an end. The smoke cleared.

He thought, this is actually very good.

The next day, Empress Xie was unwell, so she didn't invite Nan Ji.Xie Qing didn't take her sister's words to heart either.It seemed that he hadn't done anything serious for a long time, and now that he was in better health, he shouldn't delay what he should do anymore.

After more than three years of absence, Xie Qing felt a little strange.The younger brother Xie Yuan now holds the position of a senior doctor, but he still fights cocks and dogs every day, and does not do business; it turns out that Zhao Yan only has Xu Changling and Zhuang Xian who are familiar with him, one has become the prime minister and the other is the executive Jinwu. ; Zheng Shuo, who is always nagging, also received the title of Zhongdoctor, but Zhao Yan only kept this person by his side because it was fun; Obviously, now that he is the Yushi Cheng, he is still outspoken, so he has a special appetite for Lu Zhiyuan, the Yushi doctor.

Xie Qing didn't know any of the others.However, without exception, they have various positions that may not be very high, but extremely important.

Xie Qing was very pleased. In three years, Zhao Yanzhi had firmly held the power in his own hands.The imperial power has been consolidated and unshakable, but it is a pity that there are always some people who are not willing to give up, but still think that they have the upper hand.

The most urgent task is how to weaken the power of the princes and kings. Everyone insisted on their own opinions, arguing deeply; Xie Qing listened more and talked less. After a day, he had a general understanding of everyone.

When everyone dispersed, the moon was already in the sky, Xie Qing stretched his sore shoulders, got up and went to eat something with Zhao Yanzhi, and then there were still many issues to sort out.

Xie Qing is now at a stage where he has a home and cannot return, and Zhao Yanzhi is unwilling to let him return, so he has been living in the Guangming Palace without a proper name.But anyway, he has been like this since he was a child, and it can't be said that he is not used to it.But for some things, he was going to find an opportunity to discuss with Zhao Yan.

Xie Qing ate something in a hurry, then continued the discussion with Zhao Yanzhi on the topic of the day.He basically analyzed everyone's proposals during the day, and put the utility, pros and cons in front of Zhao Yanzhi one by one. Hearing this, Zhao Yan's eyes were bent into crescent moons, and his heart was extremely proud.

When the two of them finally fell asleep, it was already midnight.Zhao Yan only hugged the exhausted Xie Qing, both distressed and satisfied.His Huaifang will be his greatest help, the two of them, the monarch and his ministers, will complement each other, he promises him an emperor through the ages, and he promises him immortal achievements; they will stay together until the end of life, and live and die together.At that time, the high-spirited young emperor embraced Xiao Xiang's lover for many years, thinking that he would finally get his wish, and there would be no more grudges in the world of mortals, but he didn't know——

Birth, old age, sickness, resentment, separation of love, and not being able to ask for it, who in this world has not had wishful thinking.

In the early morning of the next day, the two who hadn't slept for a few hours had to get up again to prepare for today's court meeting.There is no way, major events are still undecided, and the powerful princes and kings will always be a heart disease of the emperor.

During the lunchtime, Empress Xie sent someone to report to the Son of Heaven that she had invited Madam Hou of Beiping and the two sons into the palace.

After hearing this, Zhao Yan felt a little awkward, and it was a great grievance for him to ask him to go to see his "rival" and pretend to be in peace; Qing's two children are what he has missed for a long time.After weighing things up and down, he told Xiao Huangmen who came to report: "Please stay with Mrs. Xie in the middle palace for a while, I can't get away for a while, please leave Mrs. Xie and the young master to eat in the palace."

For some reason, everyone here felt that when the superior said the word "Mrs. Xie", the voice seemed to be bitten out.

So Zhao Yan only had a feeling of anticipation and reluctance, and after the whole afternoon, he and Xie Qing went to the Jiaofang Hall to have lunch.

Xie Qing's two children looked more like their father, and Zhao Yan fell in love with them at the first sight and couldn't put them down.Xie Hou took out Huaiqing and Ah Sui, and put the four children together, Zhao Yan just kept saying brazenly: "It's called Ah Weng, Ah Weng..." He kept thinking about how to get Xie Qing His two children also took over.

After thanking her, she smiled dignifiedly, and suggested: "My concubine sees that your Majesty is destined to fall in love with brother's children. Why don't you decide first that these two children will be the companions of Huai Qing and Ah Sui."

Zhao Yan's eyes lit up, thinking that Ah Xiang is indeed a good wife, and she was very happy: "This is exactly what I want!"

Xie Qing has no objection, anyway, he spends much more time in Guangming Palace than at home, so it's good to keep the child by his side; besides, he has nothing to worry about if Xie Hou helps him raise the child.He was just afraid that his wife would be reluctant, but Zhao Yan had already spoken, so there was no room for discussion on this matter. At most, he could only go home to appease his wife, and then discuss with Zhao Yan to let the children go home more.

Zhao Yanzhi, who has achieved his goal, does not look like a strategizing emperor at all, and has no sense of "haste makes waste".He persisted and said: "Children will inevitably have some stumbling blocks. I think it's better to let them develop their relationship from now on. Huaifang, your two children should be fostered here in Zhonggong."

Not only was Xie Qing unwilling, but even the queen felt that something was wrong.

Empress Xie secretly blamed her husband for stealing others' love, so she coaxed her to say, "Such a young child cannot live without his mother. Besides, they don't even recognize people. It's the same when they cultivate their feelings when they are enlightened."

Zhao Yan was a little unhappy, but he peeked at Xie Qing's unhesitating expression, and swallowed back the rebuttal.

Unexpectedly, Nan Ji replied with a smile on her face: "Your Majesty likes these two children, it is their blessing. Emotions are very delicate, and the sooner they are cultivated, the better. Since Your Majesty has spoken, the concubine will continue I can't bear to part with it, and I can't discriminate between good and bad, right? What's more, the child is raised here in Zhonggong, and the concubine is more at ease than bringing it with her!"

As she spoke, she secretly squeezed Xie Qing's hand, signaling him not to talk nonsense.

Xie Qing looked at his wife in surprise, thinking that she would always miss the child for a long time when she took the child out to play by herself, so why would she feel at ease raising her with her younger sister?

Zhao Yan and Xie Xiang only looked at each other, seeing the subtle expressions on their faces.His biological mother said so, and Empress Xie naturally had no reason to refute; Zhao Yan just didn't care what Nan Ji was thinking, and was happy to get what she wanted.So several people "talked happily" after eating a meal, and agreed on the time to send the child to the palace, what to prepare, and which days to go home and which days to raise it in Xiehou.Basically, except Xie Qing who had doubts in his heart, everyone got the desired result.

After lunch, Xie Qing naturally went home with his wife and children, and Zhao Yan had no reason to keep him.He didn't plan to go back to Chengde Palace tonight, he rarely had time, so he stayed to play with his sons and daughters and talk to his wife.

After a long time, Xie Hou sneered: "I didn't know before, this sister-in-law is really high-minded, brother, one day sooner or later, I have to ask her to make a fuss!"
