Chapter 155 - Leaving the Kunning Palace

The Imperial Guards and the Managed stayed in the Qin Mountains for a total of ten days. Ten days later, they returned to the Southern Zheng!

Zhao Chen stopped at the Hanzhong City and entered the Imperial Palace!

Not long after, Li Gang followed the order and entered the Imperial Palace!

"Your Majesty!" Seeing Zhao Chen, Li Gang's face revealed a joyous expression!

For the past few months, Zhao Chen had been staying in the Southern Zheng. He and Zhao Chen had rarely met, and he missed each other quite a lot in his heart!

"Teacher, Curved End is here!" Zhao Chen said.

"This old official knows! This way, the Jingyuan City will no longer be a threat! " Li Gang said somewhat excitedly.

"That's right!" Zhao Zhe had the most control over it, while Liu Qi had the most control over it. Also, Wang De, as the Jingyuan Army's deputy ruler, naturally had to control a portion of the same! Jingyuan Army will only be used by us now, and will not become our threat! Teacher, I came back this time to discuss the matter of counterattacking the Guan Shan with you! " Zhao Chen said.

Immediately, Zhao Chen began to speak slowly, while Li Gang sank into deep thought!

After a long while, Li Gang said: "It's feasible to counterattack the Guan Shan! But we have to be sure that the woman really went south! "

Zhao Chen laughed: "Of course! It is highly likely that the woman is from the south, so we can make our preparations now! "

Be it Zhao Chen or Li Gang, they were both not timid people! The two of them had grand ambitions in their hearts, they both wanted to obtain Song Dynasty Zhong Xing! If the opportunity came, they would definitely not miss it!

"I have ordered people to pay close attention to the situation in Hedong, Hebei and other places! As for the matter of the supplies and supplies, I will have to leave it to teacher and Curved End! " Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. I will do these things well!" Li Gang said.

Zhao Chen nodded, he had absolute trust in Li Gang!

"Is Li Ruoshui here yet?" Zhao Chen said again.

"He'll be back soon!" Li Gang said.

Li Ruoshui had already been appointed as the imperial history's official! Now, the one in Sichuan was Zhao Kai. Zhao Chen had already met Zhao Kai a while ago and was very satisfied with him! This man was a famous financial expert in the Southern and Northern Song Dynasties. Now, he needed to restore the wealth of Sichuan!

Regarding Li Ruoshui, Zhao Chen also missed him a little! Other than that, he believed that Li Ruoshui would be able to do the job of Yu Cheng in history! Li Ruoshui had always been a loyal official, Zhao Chen believed that he would never change his mind!

"Let him enter the military after he returns!" Zhao Chen said.

"Alright!" This Li Gang has agreed!

After Zhao Chen and Li Gang ate lunch together, Li Gang bid farewell and left!

Zhao Chen hesitated for a while before he headed towards the Kunning Palace!

The heavy snow had stopped long ago, but the ground was still as white as ever!

The cold wind howled, and the weather was still abnormally cold!

Zhao Chen arrived at the entrance of the Kunning Palace and saw a few guards standing there! The guards had all knelt down!

"Both of you, rise!" Is everything alright in Kunning Palace? " Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, everything is fine inside!" A guard said.

"You are not allowed to use any of it!" Give them what they need, do you understand? " Zhao Chen said.

"I understand!" The guards said one after another.

Usually, Zheyue Ru was the daughter of a sinful subject, but they never thought that Zhao Chen would actually take care of her in such a way!

Zhao Chen entered the Kunning Palace, and just as he entered, he felt a chill! The Kunning Palace was cold, there was no furnace! Immediately, he frowned!

There was a tinkling sound of a zither in the Kunning Palace!

Zhao Chen kept walking forward, until he arrived in front of the palace at the very back of the Kunning Palace!

Here, through the curtain, he saw Zheyue Ru!

After so long, Zheyue Ru was still dressed like that! She was dressed in white as she sat at the table, quietly playing the zither! A maid accompanied her by her side!

When the song ended, the two of them finally saw Zhao Chen!

Immediately, the two of them knelt down and welcomed Zhao Chen!

"Both of you, rise!" Aren't you all cold here? " Zhao Chen said.

"Not really!" Zheyue Ru said softly.

"These underlings really don't know how to handle things! I'll teach them a good lesson later! " Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, don't blame them! I am the daughter of a sinful official, and His Majesty has already pitied me by not killing me. Zheyue Ru said.

Zheyue Ru's expression was abnormally calm, as if she truly did not care about anything!

"What did you just play?" Zhao Chen said.

"This song is called 'Yang Guan Three Stages'. It was originally a Pipa Melody. Chenqie will play it with the zither!" Zheyue Ru said.

"It's very nice to listen to. Play it for me again!" Zhao Chen said.

Zheyue Ru quietly nodded her head and continued playing!

"Hua'er, don't talk nonsense!" Zheyue Ru reprimanded.

It turned out that the maid's name was "Tu'er." She was also very delicate and pretty. At the age of twelve or thirteen, she was already a little beauty!

"Oh, I didn't know you could dance! "Since we're here, let's watch your dance!" Zhao Chen said.

"Since Your Majesty wants to see it, then chenqie will show you!" Zheyue Ru gently clenched her teeth and said.

Zheyue Ru stood up, she went to the center of the chamber and started dancing!

There was no music, the only sound in the Kunning Palace was her dancing!

She was originally beautiful, but this dance was also extremely beautiful!

Zhao Chen looked at it dumbly, as if he was looking at Chang'e in the middle of the moon.

Her body was graceful and graceful, as if she had already left the mortal world and was no longer in the human world!

After a long while, Zheyue Ru finally stopped. Zhao Chen was stunned for a long time, then said: "This is really great! "I grew up in the palace, but I've never seen such a beautiful dance!"

Zheyue Ru lightly shook her head, and said: "Your Majesty is flattering me! In the end, this kind of dance was just for the man to see. Other than that, it's useless! "

Zhao Chen laughed: "Being able to laugh at others is already not bad!"

After Zheyue Ru sat down, she no longer paid any attention to Zhao Chen and just pretended that Zhao Chen did not exist and sat there reading!

Zhao Chen thought for a while, then said: "In the Kunning Palace, there is no one to take care of you, so we don't even have a stove here. I think it would be better if all of you come with me tomorrow to the Southern Zheng! "

Zheyue Ru was finally shocked and said: "Go to the Southern Zheng? Didn't Chenqie already get beaten into a harem? "

Zhao Chen said: "From today onwards, this' Cold Palace 'will no longer exist, you are free! I didn't plan to punish you back then, but the officials forced me to do so! "It has been so long since I've released you all. I'm not afraid of even a few words from the ministers!"

Zheyue Ru's eyes moistened as she said, "Your Majesty, just who was it that wanted to harm my father? "My father was loyal, and would never have betrayed us!"

Zhao Chen frowned, and said: "No one wants to harm your father! If you really want to investigate the culprit, then I am the culprit! "

Zheyue Ru stared at Zhao Chen, but shook his head.

Zhao Chen said: "What's wrong? It was I who ordered someone to kill your father. What are you shaking your head for? "

Zheyue Ru cried, "This concubine would never dare to have such a thought!"

Zhao Chen said: "Why do you not dare to have such thoughts? You hate me, you hate me, I don't care! It's only natural that you want to seek revenge on me. After all, I killed your father! "

Zheyue Ru said: "It's not like that!"

Zheyue Ru said: "His majesty is the Sovereign King of Song Dynasty, if the Sovereign wants me to die, I have no choice but to die. If his majesty kills my father, I won't dare to blame him! Furthermore... Besides, His Majesty and I have already been married. His Majesty is my husband. Women are always virtuous and will never do anything to harm their husband! The officials in the imperial court were jealous of my father's power and influence, so they bewitched the emperor to kill my father.

After hearing such "weird" words, Zhao Chen was stunned! He had clearly killed Zhe Keqiu, but Zheyue Ru had found many reasons to get rid of him! Now, Zheyue Ru actually thought that the Minister was trying to seduce Zhao Chen, which was why he had done such a thing!

Immediately, Zhao Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said: "I am very grateful that you don't hate me! But you must not place any hatred on those ministers, they are just executing my orders, you can't blame them for everything! "

Zheyue Ru only shook her head without saying a word!

Seeing her this way, Zhao Chen had no other choice, and said: "It must be because you haven't eaten a good meal in Kunning Palace for a long time! Also, it's so cold here, I think we should do this, today we should all go to Dry Clear Palace, you should stay there too! "

Zheyue Ru was startled, but after that, she seemed to have thought of something, her face turned red, but she still nodded her head obediently!

Therefore, Zhao Chen brought Zheyue Ru and Painting to Dry Clear Palace. He first had someone prepare a meal, and then let Zheyue Ru and Painting have a hearty meal! In the afternoon, Zhao Chen and Zheyue Ru discussed some zither, chess, calligraphy and painting, these were all things that Zheyue Ru liked. Zheyue Ru was exceptionally focused on drawing, her mood seemed to be much better!

That night, Zheyue Ru and Tu'er stayed there! There were a lot of rooms in Dry Clear Palace, so Zhao Chen specially made a room for two people to stay in, not mentioning at all!

Early morning of the second day, Zhao Chen left for Southern Zheng!

He was riding on a horse, while Zheyue Ru and Hua Er were in a horse carriage! Hundreds of Royal soldiers followed behind them!

Zheyue Ru and Hua Er had not left Kunning Palace for a few months. At this moment, they pulled open the curtains of the carriage and looked outside curiously!

It was pure white outside!

Zheyue Ru couldn't help but think back to last year's time. She was the one that she met last winter! She was so happy, so content, last year! However, in less than a year, her family had been wiped out and she no longer had any relatives left!

Thinking of this, her eyes turned red again!

Just then, Zhao Chen arrived in front of the carriage. Looking at Zheyue Ru's appearance, he said: "Do you want to ride a horse with me? This mood will definitely get better! "

Zheyue Ru was startled, and gently nodded her head!

Immediately after, she got off the horse carriage and Zhao Chen carried her to the night jade lion's horse. Zhao Chen also jumped onto the horse, and galloped forward together with Zheyue Ru!

The cold wind howled, but this did not affect the speed of the jade lion horse in the slightest! In such weather, the Bright Moon Lion seemed exceptionally excited. It continued forward, hissing continuously!

This was Zheyue Ru's first time riding a horse! When she was young, at home, she was raised as a lady of a noble family. At this moment, at the back of the horse, her heart was pounding in alarm! Leaning on Zhao Chen's body, he slowly calmed himself down!

When Zhao Chen hugged her, she actually had an abnormal feeling of safety!

As they walked forward, Zheyue Ru could not help but start shouting and laughing loudly!

"From now on, if you like, I'll take you out to play as often as I can!" Zhao Chen laughed.
