The concubine is soft and charming, and the prince is willing to seduce her

Chapter 224: You are unworthy of being a human being!

The end of the year is approaching and it has been snowing in Jingzhou City for three consecutive days. Suisui and Zhaozhao are staying in the palace with their relatives.

The two little balls stared with wide eyes out of curiosity as they watched Shen Zhiyu threading the needle and embroidering.

I saw the needle and thread repeatedly shuttling on the cloth, and soon a piece of green bamboo appeared vividly on the cloth.

Zhao Zhao grabbed the small handkerchief in her pocket and waved her hand towards Shen Zhiyu, "Liang dear, I want flowers."

Suisui imitated Zhaozhao, took out her own handkerchief, and reached out to Shen Zhiyu, "Cold kiss~~"

Shen Zhiyu patted the two little ones' heads and said, "Okay, when mother finishes embroidering this shirt for your father, I will embroider little flowers for you two."

At this time, Fuzhu opened the door curtain from outside, and snowflakes floated in with the wind, "Master, His Majesty asked you and the two young princes to have dinner first, so you don't have to wait for him."

"Did something happen?" Shen Zhiyu turned her head and looked at the sky outside the window which was gradually getting darker, her brows slightly furrowed.

It must not be a trivial matter if it could trip the emperor in the Qianqing Palace.

Shen Zhiyu put down the needle and thread in her hand worriedly, but she was distracted and the needle pierced her fingertip.

Sui Sui and Zhao Zhao were so scared that they quickly rushed forward, shouting "Liang Qin~~"

This kind of thing had never happened to Shen Zhiyu during all these days of making clothes. When Lian Yue saw the blood coming out from her fingertips, she immediately ordered the palace maid to get ointment.

Qingdai and Chen Fang coaxed the two little princes, telling them not to worry, and only after much persuasion did they agree to go with them for dinner.

Shen Zhiyu looked at the drop of blood on the snow-white handkerchief and felt more and more uneasy.

She recalled what the emperor had said to her before, asking Shen Hongfeng to go to the western border to guard it. It was so cold and freezing that the nomadic barbarians in the Western Rong tribe might not be content...

The more Shen Zhiyu thought about it, the more uncertain she felt. She grabbed her handkerchief and asked, "Has Your Majesty had your meal?"

Fuzhu knelt on the ground and blamed himself: "To answer the master, His Majesty is still discussing state affairs with the ministers in the Qianqing Palace."

This means there is no meal and no time to eat.

She stood up and said, "I'll be there now."

Although it was the imperial concubine's sedan chair, the emperor ordered it to be modified into the style of the empress and many details were added.

Shen Zhiyu sat inside and didn't feel cold at all.

His slender fingers tapped rhythmically on the armrest, his thoughts racing.

Shen Zhiyu's current status is completely different from the past. In addition, Wei Qingye did not deliberately hide the affairs of the court from her, and sometimes even used memorials to guide her thinking. Therefore, she stood from the perspective of those in power and saw things more clearly.

The sedan stopped and the curtain was lifted. Shen Zhiyu then walked in holding Fuzhu's hand.

The ministers who were originally arguing began to tidy up their appearance when they saw the imperial concubine enter so openly without even the need for the palace servants to inform them.

"I have met the noble concubine."

Shen Zhiyu waved at them and said, "Ministers, there is no need to be polite."

Wei Qingye, who was sitting behind the imperial desk, looked at the feng shui map on the long table with an uneasy expression. When he noticed the person coming, his expression eased a little. He stood up, supported her and asked, "Zhizhi, why are you here?"

Shen Zhiyu said softly, "Even if your majesty works all night long for the government affairs, the ministers still need to rest and eat, so... Your majesty, would you please give me a favor and rest for a while?" The Minister of War and the Vice Minister of War who came to the Qianqing Palace thought they would have to endure this tonight, but who knew they would be treated like this? !
Sure enough, those people from the Ministry of Industry were right. The Imperial Concubine is truly the Emperor's wise wife! !
Their Ministry of War should be the second most important ministry in the court, and they were invited by the emperor to have meals with them. After returning, he would definitely show off to them.

"How could I not give Zhizhi a chance to save her face?" Wei Qingye helped her sit on the throne and said to Chai Hui, "Order someone to serve the meal."

The people from the Ministry of Industry gathered around a table, eating hot wontons with crispy fried cakes. They felt warm all over and wanted to stay up all night longer.

Wei Qingye and Shen Zhiyu had the same wontons and pastries on the imperial table, without any special treatment at all.

When the people from the Ministry of Works saw this, they couldn't help but burst into tears. The emperor was indeed the wise ruler that they, the ministers, wanted to follow all their lives, and the imperial concubine was fully worthy of the title of the mother of a country.

After they return, they will discuss with the people from the other six ministries and write a petition to the emperor to ask him to make the imperial concubine the empress.

After finishing the meal, Shen Zhiyu planned to leave so as not to delay their discussion of important matters.

Wei Qingye held her hand tightly and did not let go. "Zhizhi, there is no need to avoid anything. Can you stay here with me for a while?"

Seeing that the ministers had no objections, Shen Zhiyu reluctantly agreed.

Listening to their discussion, it turned out to be not much different from what I had guessed. However, on the countermeasures against the constant invasion of the Western Rong tribes into the western border, the people from the Ministry of Works put forward their own views and argued their points.

Some wanted to take advantage of the situation, strengthen the city walls and hold the city, avoid direct conflict with the Western Rong tribe, so as to consume the enemy's resources and energy and reduce the damage to the Southern Qin soldiers.

Others believed that they should send a large force to completely conquer the Western Rong tribe and force it to submit forever to the Southern Qin Empire, thus solving the problem at its root.

Others believed that a marriage alliance should be made with the Western Rong, which would ease the conflict in the western border.

The person who finally proposed this solution was strongly opposed by other ministers.

"You and I are both tall and strong men, but instead of thinking about how to defend our country, you are here thinking about unorthodox ways. You are unworthy of being a human being!"

"I just want to give the soldiers of the Southern Qin Empire some chance to recuperate. Is that wrong?"

The Minister of War and the Doctor of War were arguing with each other until their faces turned red and they were sharp in the face. If it weren't for His Majesty and the Imperial Concubine suppressing them, they would have probably come to blows.

Wei Qingye saw Shen Zhiyu shrink her shoulders just now, and worried that she would be frightened, he threw a book to her and said, "Do you think my Palace of Heavenly Purity is a bazaar in Jingzhou City, and you are all the scoundrels in it?"

The two of them secretly rolled up their sleeves, then secretly put them down and stepped aside.

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

Wei Qingye snorted coldly and turned to look at Shen Zhiyu, "I wonder what your Royal Concubine thinks about this matter?"

Some ministers from the Ministry of War wanted to speak up to dissuade him, but they were so frightened by the emperor's intimidating look that they lowered their necks and dared not speak a word.

Shen Zhiyu nervously grasped his sleeve and shook her head slowly. She remembered that the harem was not allowed to interfere in government affairs, and she didn't want to be impeached by the censors early tomorrow morning.

"Have you forgotten what you said?" Wei Qingye stared at her with his phoenix eyes, with expectations and encouragement in his eyes.

As soon as these words came out, Shen Zhiyu subconsciously thought of this sentence: "You are carrying such heavy responsibilities and obligations, I am willing to bear them with you."

It turned out that Wei Changying remembered everything she said.

Ministry of War: A group of lovely ministers, what's wrong with rolling up their sleeves and fighting on weekdays? (#^.^#)
