Chapter 205 Zhao Hongfei
Beijing.
Fengqi Palace.
Emperor Mingde and the Empress leaned against each other, reading together the secret letter sent by their daughter.
When they saw what the Southern Qi people might do to Daxia, they were all very angry.
Emperor Mingde looked at the Queen's expression and reached out to gently stroke her back.
"Don't be angry, don't be angry, you are pregnant, don't be angry."
The queen glanced at him and said, "The matter of Chu is still ongoing, and there is trouble in Southern Qi again. I am a little worried."
Emperor Mingde held the empress's cheek and kissed her gently.
"What are you worried about? Just send more catapults and bombs to Tianmen Pass on the border of Southern Qi."
The queen gently pushed Emperor Mingde's face away, and Emperor Mingde came closer with a smile.
Queen...
After giving him a fierce look, Emperor Mingde sat up straight and reached out to rub his wife's waist.
Queen...
He let out a weak breath, stood up and paced around, saying, "The soldiers guarding Tianmen Pass are the Hu family army."
As soon as these words were spoken, Emperor Mingde fell silent.
The Hu family army, the commander Hu Man is an old general of the Hu family who has guarded Tianmen Pass for generations.
A few years ago, the city wall of Tianmen Pass had not yet been built.
In the villages near Tianmen Pass in Southern Qi, people often went missing.
What was Hu’s army doing at that time?
Concealing the truth and shirking responsibility.
When the city wall of Tianmen Pass was being built, it would have been very difficult if there hadn’t been a herald officer watching over it.
The Hu family army might pretend to obey the emperor's orders but actually disobey them.
Over the years, the city wall was built, and the imperial court allocated a large amount of money and military pay to support it...
Emperor Mingde took a deep breath and said, "Over the years, the Hu family army has been honest, but that old man Hu Man is really a tough guy."
"Hmph," the Queen glanced at Qian Qian's secret letter again, "Call Yuner over. It's time to clean up Tianmen Pass."
"Yooner?"
Emperor Mingde walked towards the queen and took her arm, "You want Skynet's cooperation? There is also Skynet at Tianmen Pass?"
The queen raised her eyes and looked at him impatiently, "Just shout when I tell you to, don't waste your words."
"Also, I get upset when I see you, go away, go away."
Emperor Mingde...
Her eyes suddenly turned red, and soon filled with tears.
"Wuwuwu," he looked at the queen aggrievedly, "Yue'er hates me."
Queen...
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then walked to the outside of Fengqi Palace and called the secret guards.
"Send someone to investigate the Hu family army at Tianmen Pass and their leader, Hu Man."
"Yes."
Emperor Mingde secretly placed his hand in the Queen's palm.
Queen...
This guy is becoming more and more clingy.
Glancing at Emperor Mingde.
"Hehe," Emperor Mingde immediately raised his head, a smile that showed his grievance but also strength.
"Yue'er, I've asked someone to call Yun'er over."
Like a little puppy begging for mercy from its owner.
The queen's annoyance suddenly disappeared. She shook her head helplessly and turned back to the palace.
Emperor Mingde followed closely beside her.
Xiao Yun quickly rushed to Fengqi Palace, and the family of three immediately made a detailed investigation plan.
At Fengqi Palace, the secret guards quickly headed towards Tianmen Pass.
Qian Qian met the female teacher Zhao Hongfei recommended by Luo Meimei.
The woman was wearing a moon-white robe, dressed like a scholar.
Her black hair was neatly tied on top of her head, secured only with a wooden hairpin.
She was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, with a slightly dark complexion, a sallow complexion and a bad look, but her eyes were clear and powerful.
Concubine Zhao Hong was undoubtedly a graceful beauty, but judging from the wrinkles around her eyes and lips, she was not living a very happy life.
Qian Qian waited for her to pay her respects and then allowed her to sit.
"I have heard a lot about Master Zhao from Patriarch Luo."
She looked at Concubine Zhao Hong with a serious expression, "If Master Zhao needs anything, I can help you take the family property back from your father and brother."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Hongfei raised her eyes and looked at Qian Qian. Her eyes were clear and did not show any resentment or hatred.
"Thank you, Princess."
She stood up and saluted, then changed the subject, "But that's not necessary."
"No need?" Qian Qian was surprised. "Didn't you earn all the wealth that the Zhao family gained after returning from exile?"
"Can you," she wondered, "really let go?"
Concubine Zhao Hong chuckled, "Your Highness, no one in this world knows the Zhao family better than I do. They are just a bunch of parasites."
"The Zhao family is cold-blooded and ruthless, and can only survive by relying on others."
"The wealth I have earned is the most lucrative and lucrative meat."
"The Zhao family has something to fight for."
"I don't need to do anything, let alone dirty anyone's hands. The Zhao family will take care of themselves."
Qian Qian raised his eyes and looked at Zhao Hongfei. He admired the woman's insight and open-mindedness.
[Tongzi, I originally thought that Concubine Zhao Hong was a man of affection and loyalty, but I didn't expect her to be so insightful and open-minded.]
[Yes,] the system also sighed, [The Zhao family was originally a fourth-rank official in the capital, but because they were involved in the Shanjun incident, the entire family was exiled to the northern border.]
[If Concubine Zhao Hong had not learned how to hunt during exile, more than half of the Zhao family would have died.]
[Later, after Concubine Zhao Hong's mother's family spared no effort to petition for mercy, they were finally allowed by your father to return to Shicheng.]
[Shicheng is the hometown of Zhao Hongfei's mother. Her mother passed away after she came to Shicheng.]
[Zhao Hongfei's grandfather also retired and returned to his hometown, and her mother's family gradually went downhill. She started a business and made money on her own.]
[After several years of hard work and earning a fortune, her grandparents also passed away.]
[Now, she is 27 years old, and her father and brother think she is shameless for showing off in public.]
[No one in the entire Shicheng dared to propose marriage, so she was driven out of the house, cut off from the family tree.]
[Alas,] the system sighed, [if she hadn't had the meager inheritance left by her grandparents.]
[Then she may not even have a place to live. ]
Concubine Zhao Hong lived for twenty-seven years and never thought that such a thing would happen one day.
If so, her estimate was correct.
She must have heard what the princess was thinking just now.
Her legs felt a little weak, so she sat back in the chair, holding on to the armrests.
For a moment, I didn't know what expression I should put on when facing Her Royal Highness the Princess.
Just as I was panicking, a soft and cute voice came to my ears.
"Master, Master?"
Zhao Hongfei came back to her senses and found the little man standing in front of her.
The little girl was about four or five years old, a very thin bald girl, who was blinking her big eyes at him.
Her heart suddenly softened.
Qian Qian smiled and said, "This is Yun Shu. May I ask if Master Zhao is willing to accept this student?"
Concubine Zhao Hong looked at the princess, then at the little girl in front of her.
I felt a little nervous, but also a little amused.
This eight-year-old girl is looking for a teacher for a five-year-old girl?
I don't know why, and I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
But, look into Yun Shu’s eyes.
Those eyes were extremely clear, as if they could see through people's hearts.
She was slightly stunned, then nodded, stood up and bowed to the princess, "I will accept Miss Yunshu."
[Huh,] Qian Qian heaved a sigh of relief, [Finally I got rid of this little guy.]
[Wow, I don't have to teach her how to write anymore. Yay! Yay yay!]
Princess Zhao Hong...
This little princess is so cute.
[Little Princess,] The system reminded, [This Concubine Zhao Hong is very knowledgeable about state governance.]
[In the future, if Yunshu wants to return to Southern Qi, she will definitely be a great help to Yunshu. ]
Princess Zhao Hong...
He tilted his head to look at the little bald man. Nanqi? Help?
This girl...
