"you are not willing?"

The Empress Dowager tilted her little head, and she saw the strange color in Zhao Cuo's eyes, which seemed to be because of the three words "Chu Bie Zhi".

"Of course I hope to be by your side."

Mr. Zhao responded quickly and said the absolutely correct answer.

"Is it appropriate for a man like you to be so clingy?"

The Queen Mother said with a smile, raised her white jade hand to caress his cheek, and suddenly said softly:

"You shouldn't really have anything to do with Chu Biezhi, right?"

He shook his head decisively.

"I have absolutely nothing to do with the Imperial Master."

Zhao Cuo really didn't feel guilty when he said this.

"I don't want to do anything to you. Why are you so nervous? Can I still eat you?"

She lovingly held the boy's face and rubbed it gently, seemingly to relax his tense facial muscles. Unfortunately, this had the opposite effect.

"Didn't the empress eat me on the dragon throne just now when all the ministers were still there?"

While speaking, Mr. Zhao buried his face in her arms.

"It's obvious that you, a treacherous traitor, insulted me in public."

As Queen Mother Zhao listened to his messy words, her beautiful eyes suddenly became moist again.

"When you said this, were you thinking of something strange?"

Zhao Cuo, who was paying attention to the change in the bad woman's face, acutely realized that she was thinking about it again.

"I suddenly don't want you to leave the capital."

The Empress Dowager's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"right!"

Mr. Zhao, who had no intention of going out for a trip, struck while the iron was hot.

"Your Majesty, it is better to send other capable ministers to Ningguo. If I am not with you for a few months, you will not be able to bear it, right?"

"Do you think that I am a fool who indulges in pleasure?"

After the Queen Mother finished speaking her righteous words, she kissed his forehead again.

Zhao Cuo: "..."

"Why does the empress have to send me to Ningguo?"

He asked in a low voice with a puzzled look on his face.

"I want to support you."

Empress Dowager Zhao gently caressed Zhao Cuo's cheek and said.

"You are a low-key person now. If I want you to hold power, it will be difficult to convince the public, so you must accumulate merit and establish prestige."

"I see."

Zhao Cuo was stunned for a moment and then gradually understood her good intentions. His expression became gentle and he hid his cheek in her arms, stroking it gently to show his attachment.

"If we go to Ning State this time and successfully welcome King Ning to Xiang Jing and ascend the throne, then the strength of the Seven Kings Alliance will be greatly reduced. I can use this credit to let you lead the army."

Empress Dowager Zhao said this in a rare warm tone, her white and tender hands still stroking the smooth black hair of the boy in her arms, like a good wife and loving mother who spoke with sincerity and sincerity.

"After the imperial court goes to war with those rebel kings, do you want me to lead the army on an expedition?"

Zhao Cuo enjoyed the moment of tenderness that she only had for herself.

"Of course it's you."

Zhao Qinglan put her shiny chin on his head, narrowed her golden eyes in contentment, and said with a smile:

"As long as you can defeat the seven kings and achieve the achievements that Emperor Taizong failed to achieve, I will grant you the title of king."

"I will not let you down. If you ask me to go to Ningguo, I will go. When will we set off?"

Zhao Cuo clung to her arms. What he was most obsessed with now was not the bad woman's body, but her preference and love for him.

The empress really wanted to share the supreme power in her hands with him.

If he even doubts this relationship, then there will be nothing left to cherish in this world.

"I'll stay with you for a few more nights before I let you go."

Empress Dowager Zhao whispered warmly in his ear.

"Even during the day."

Young Master Zhao asked for trouble.

"I will remember your words."

She said with a smile, and after the two of them had been cozy for a long time, they discussed serious matters again.

"What I just said still stands. You will be protected by Chu Biezhi during Ning Guo's trip. Do you have any other requests?"

"I will bring a few acquaintances from the Execution Department to accompany me, and I will also ask Jiming, the Prime Minister of Dali Temple, to come with me. Otherwise, everything else will be decided by the Queen."

The most helpless thing about Zhao Cuo is that he can finish serious matters in just a few sentences.

In the end, he himself was harmed by his impulsive rants just now.

The bad woman acted wildly on the dragon throne again.

"I have just returned to Beijing and have to go on a mission to Ningguo. I feel a little sorry for my sister, but there is nothing I can do..."

Young Master Zhao stayed in the morning until evening before leaving the palace. He got on the carriage and headed back home. He felt a little ashamed when he thought about his elder sister.

In the past few months, Zhao Shanxin first rushed to Jiangnan because of him, and then he went to Huainan. Now they got together and parted again.

No matter how much he thought about it, he felt that his sister was about to get angry.

"Young master, you are back."

As soon as Zhao Cuo walked into the house, the maid greeted him.

"The eldest lady told you to go to the lobby when you come back."

"Are there guests at the house?"

He asked with some surprise. It was almost time for dinner, and ordinary guests would not come to visit at this time.

"The eldest lady didn't say anything. I just got the order and didn't go to the lobby without permission to see what guests were coming."

"I'll go over right now and you go get busy." Mr. Zhao walked towards the lobby with doubts, "Who could be at this time?"

He was a little puzzled.

"When my sister asked the maid to call me over, she shouldn't have forgotten to inform me who was coming."

When Zhao Cuo walked into the strange atmosphere of the lobby of Zheng Guogong's mansion, he understood.

"Sister, what are you..."

He pretended to smile as if nothing had happened. At this time, Miss Zhao was sitting on the main seat with an upright face. On her left was a beautiful woman wearing a lake-green robe.

What is it like for you two to sit here and drink tea in harmony?

Young Master Zhao was confused.

"sorry……"

At this time, Yan'er's slightly aggrieved voice sounded in his mind, and Zhao Cuo glanced at her fair and tender fox Mei'er, and happened to meet her beautiful purple eyes.

He saw the embarrassment and helplessness in those charming fox eyes.

There was still mist in the corner of the stupid young woman's eyes, as if she was about to cry.

'Why do you look so pitiful as if you were bullied by my sister?'

Zhao Cuo's eye twitched.

"The wrong one is back."

Zhao Shanxin spoke first after taking a sip of tea, with a smile on her lips and a kind tone, but the young man could hear her sister's unhappiness and a hint of anger.

"I was left in the palace by my empress after the morning court to discuss a major matter. Let's not talk about this anymore. Why are you here, Mrs. Yan?"

He actually didn't understand why Yan'er wanted to send a message to apologize to him. Did this idiot do something outrageous again? Or was there some conflict with Yan'er?

"That's right, didn't you know that Madam is going to be a guest at our house today?"

Zhao Shangxin's peach blossom eyes revealed a sullen look, but his fair, oval face still had a smile, and he said gently and generously:
Chapter completed!
