On the third day after Wang Zhi resigned, the cabinet received Wang Zhi's resignation memorial again. According to convention, after this time, he would submit a memorial again, which means that he would resign and retire.

The government and the country were strangely quieting down when Wang Zhi's resignation.

Wang Zhidangting offended the emperor, which was the direct reason for his resignation as the Heavenly Official, but Nangong was the concern of everyone. Nangong caused this rebellion, how would Your Majesty treat Nangong?

No matter how everyone is paying attention to it, the days are still at its inherent pace and reaching the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month. This year is the Little New Year, and tomorrow is the first day of the New Year, and the officials' rest will begin.

On the root of the imperial city, more than a dozen Han generals held torches to illuminate everything around them.

The white snow, red walls, glazed tiles, and tall trees were all shrouded in the fire.

Zhu Qiyu, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, stood surrounded by a group of large inner guards, walking impatiently on the snow, and asked Xing'an next to her from time to time:

"Where has Duke Zhongguo been?"

The sound of horse hooves sounded in the distance, and several red horses rushed over. The knights on the horse tied the reins, and the horsemen stood up, making a neigh, kicking up a large ball of snow-filled sluts, and the nearby guards avoided them.

Su Cheng turned over and jumped off the horse, walked a few steps in front of Zhu Qiyu, and asked Zhu Qiyu helplessly:

"Your Majesty is so anxious to call me, I don't know what's going on?"

Zhu Qiyu's face was quite bad and pointed to the tall tree outside the wall of the Nangong Palace.

The deep and tall tree canopy covers the inside and outside of the wall. By climbing the trunk, you can climb to the Nangong.

"Ruan Lang is back. He said that some nobles have climbed trees to enter and exit Nangong several times."

"Since the underground was closed, the contact between these nobles and Nangong had been dependent on climbing trees. Looking at the gap between the guards' patrols, someone inside could connect the inside and outside."

Su Cheng suddenly thought of the records of Ming Dynasty, and the emperor ordered all the trees inside and outside the Nangong.

There is a reason for this.

But it is not good to read in history books after all.

"Ruan Lang is a sinister and cunning person, and what he said may not be true."

Su Cheng reminded Zhu Qiyu that maybe it was a trick, just like Lao Wangzhi. This guy tried his best to do even offend the emperor, just to resign.

Zhu Qiyu pointed to a big tree near him:

"I also thought it was fake. Now someone shows up to demonstrate to you and me. Is there still fake?"

"Xue Heng, come down and stop blowing on it. I'm going to be cold for you."

Accompanied by Zhu Qiyu's words, the trunk of the tree trembled, and a person came down from the tree. It was Xue Heng, the son-in-law of the Grand Princess of Yangwu Hou Mansion.

Su Cheng was a little confused. This Xue Heng was really rare. Although the princess was born by Empress Dowager Sun, she is also Zhu Qiyu's brother-in-law. Zhu Qiyu didn't have much trouble. You, the Marquis of Yangwu, can you go to the same road as Zhu Qizhen?

"Mr. Xue?"

Su Cheng looked at Xue Heng and his voice was colder than the air. This grandson really wanted to die.

Xue Heng knelt on the ground in fear:

"Sinner Xue Heng, I have met Your Majesty."

Zhu Qiyu snorted coldly:

"You are not a criminal, you are a meritorious person. I have issued an order to confine the Nangong Palace Gate. You, the prince consort, are you, just walking directly to the palace wall. It's great."

Xue Heng knelt on the snow and did not dare to say anything.

Su Cheng looked up at the high wall near Nangong. There were many trees, especially trees over ten years, with forty or fifty trees inside and outside. If all of them were cut down, it would be a good thing. At least the eunuchs who walked past below would not be chased away by bird shit.

"It's all cut down, these trees are of no use."

Su Cheng made the decision.

Zhu Qiyu was a little reluctant to leave after hearing this:

"These trees are old, and it would be a pity if they were all cut down."

Zhu Qiyu had a memory at the beginning of being in Nangong, and she was quite emotional about these trees. When she heard that Su Cheng wanted to cut down the trees, she felt a little reluctant.

Su Cheng looked at Xue Heng.

Zhu Qiyu gritted her teeth and glared at Xue Heng with anger:

"It's all cut down, and keeping it will be a disaster."

"The prince-in-law Xue Heng, who did not want to go to the princess during the festival, did not want to go to the princess during the festival, but instead came to Nangong to join him and returned to the princess's house to think about his mistakes. If there is any rebellion, he will be punished twice as much."

"Yangwu Hou Mansion is a nobleman of the dynasty, and he does not control his son-in-law and lets him scoundrel the court and disturb the discipline. He will keep his house in a month and think about his own mistakes. Next time, the knife that I cut off my title will not only cut off the British Duke's Mansion."

Zhu Qiyu greeted Su Cheng and walked into the palace:

"Today, there is no one in Su Qing's family, so let's spend the holiday with me."

Su Cheng suddenly became anxious:

"I have someone in my family, and my brother and sister are all at home today."

Zhu Qiyu smiled:

"That's not, I've entered the palace."

At the entrance of the palace, the listless Su He rode a horse, and sat on the carriage with a thrilling face, lifting the curtain of the carriage and looking around.

Su Cheng had no choice but to follow Zhu Qiyu into the imperial city.

The group entered the imperial city and went straight to Kunning Palace.

Zhu Qiyu now has only one son and one daughter, one daughter, one concubine, and the huge harem is empty.

The two entered the inner hall. Zhu Qiyu took off his cloak and ordered the palace maids next to him to take Su Cheng's cloak and call Su Cheng to walk inward.

The banquet had been put on, Empress Wang, Concubine Hang Xian, had sat down, and Princess Zhu Jianji and Princess Gu'an ran around on the floor with a soft blanket.

The ground dragon inside was burning hot enough, and the two children ran with red faces. When they saw Zhu Qiyu, the two little guys cheered and rushed into Zhu Qiyu's arms, one left and one right.

Zhu Qiyu picked up the two little guys and ordered Su Cheng to sit down next to the main seat, hold the two children, and sit down on the main seat.

"Sucheng, you can have a few drinks with me today. We will never return without getting drunk."

Su Cheng looked at the wine in the white porcelain cup. It was a clear high-level wine. It was simple to make him lose his return without getting drunk.

"As long as you get drunk, you can't be crazy."

Zhu Qiyu smiled and raised her wine glass:

"Come on, everyone raises their glasses. I will give you this glass of wine tonight. Thank you for your hard work over the past year. The queen is pregnant with Liujia and still has to take charge of the six palaces. Hang'er doesn't like ordinary things, but she also gives up her medical skills and takes charge of the harem with the queen. I am grateful to you."

Everyone raised their glasses and drank the glass of wine.

Zhu Qiyu took a glass of wine and started talking:

"I feel so sad, Su Cheng!"

"It would be fine if the empress dowager is not her own mother, and the emperor is not her own father. Even the crown prince is not my own son. Do you think I am suffering?"

"Come on, drink, dry."

Zhu Qiyu simply fucked the second cup.

Su Cheng, who was holding chopsticks in his hand, looked embarrassed. Zhu Qiyu was drinking a little fast.

Su Cheng had no choice but to put down his chopsticks and have a drink.

"If we complain, complain, don't drink all the time."

Su Cheng scolded Zhu Qiyu.

Zhu Qiyu put down his wine glass and started talking nonstop:

"I can't change the Supreme Emperor, I can't change the Empress Dowager. I can't change the Crown Prince. Now, everyone advises me to endure it and not to easily shake the foundation of the country. You are Su Cheng, the Queen, and even my own mother says this."

Queen Wang next to him put down her chopsticks, looked around, waved her hand to Xing'an who was attending her next to her. Xing'an walked out quickly, and footsteps immediately surged outside the hall, and it seemed that there were people standing on the roof.

After a moment, Xing'an came back and stood by again.

Zhu Qiyu suddenly grabbed Su Cheng's hand:

"Sucheng, tell me, can I still let Brother Ji be the prince?"
