Joy of Life: I, a man, became the Queen of Northern Qi?

Chapter 15 Sean is captured.

"I originally thought this was a rare opportunity, the last chance to marry a concubine before ascending the throne, and I sent officials from the East Palace to present gifts to show my gratitude. I never thought such a big thing would happen."

His son is the continuation of Sean's bloodline and the apple of his eye.

At his son's wedding, Sean secretly returned to his hometown to attend the wedding.

In front of his son, he is no longer the boss who is in control of everything. This wedding is more like an opportunity for the father and son to reunite. For Da Qi, no matter he is a legendary figure or a proud hero, at this moment it is just a moment for an ordinary father and son to get together.

However, this secret return home was also seen by Qingguo, which aroused Chen Pingping's strong interest.

Sean disappeared during the game. Combined with the date of the wedding, Chen Pingping, as the opponent, naturally guessed that he was returning home secretly, so they planned a surprise attack: they traveled thousands of miles from south to north, and at the wedding banquet, they cleverly tampered with the wine, hoping to capture Sean in one fell swoop. However, from beginning to end, Sean did not drink, which made everyone think that the plan was going to fail, but something unexpected happened!

When Sean heard the noise coming from the bridal chamber, his mood instantly dropped to the bottom. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore and chose to drown his sorrows in alcohol.

The reason why Sean is so depressed is that Sean's son cannot live a normal life.

As a father, Sean felt helpless and heavy-hearted about his son's condition.

This also made him relax his vigilance against alcohol, and he eventually drank the problematic wine, which greatly reduced his fighting power.

Despite this, Chen Pingping still paid a huge price to take him down.

Zhan Doudou suddenly frowned and said, "Although last night was the happy event of my son's marriage, Xiao En's son and daughter-in-law were killed, and he himself was also captured. Why didn't anyone come to report such a big thing? No matter when or where, you must let me know as soon as possible."

"This is strange."

But she didn't know how much Xiaomao, a maid in the East Palace, had to sacrifice to achieve this and prevent outsiders from disturbing His Highness's good deeds. Without Xiaomao, Zhan Doudou and Li An's little family would have been broken up long ago.
The Queen Mother stared at her daughter's cheek with bright eyes, somewhat suspiciously, as if she wanted to see clearly whether her daughter was hiding something from her. She always felt that there was something wrong.

After a moment, the Queen Mother looked serious and said, "In the future, my son will be the ruler of Qi State, and the people of the world will support him. This incident happened just before the coronation ceremony, so my son should pay more attention to it. If he doesn't handle it well, Sean's adopted son Shangshan Hu will take the opportunity to cause trouble."

"If this is impossible, even if it means disturbing the Imperial Master's peace, I will invite him to come to the capital to take charge!"

Emperors are all suspicious, and Zhan Doudou, as the crown prince of Northern Qi who is about to ascend the throne, undoubtedly also possesses this characteristic.

Chen Pingping led the Black Cavalry on a thousand-mile raid and captured Sean alive.

But how did he avoid the garrisons of the Northern Qi border troops and the inspections of the local state troops?

This happened just before she ascended the throne, and she was the one who was most affected by this incident. It was hard not for her to suspect that someone in the court was interfering!
Differences in political views are still within the bottom line, but if it involves secret connections with foreign countries, this is something Zhan Doudou cannot tolerate!
Seeing her daughter in deep thought, the Queen Mother comforted her, "My daughter, don't worry too much. It's still unknown whether Sean's death will be good or bad for us mother and son."

"This"

Zhan Doudou was shocked!
Yes, Sean's power is too huge. Not only does he control the entire Northern Qi's intelligence system, he also has an adopted son, Uesugi Tora, who commands the border troops. It can be said that he has power over the government and the country!
It is also the biggest obstacle for him to regain power after he becomes emperor!

It's good to go
"My son has already figured out a plan for this matter. Mother, is there anything else you want to advise him?" Zhan Doudou already knew the details of what had happened. With so many things to deal with, he just had to deal with them one by one.

After asking for his mother's opinion as usual, he left the palace to handle state affairs.

Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother really wanted to say something. She hesitated, but finally gritted her teeth and said firmly: "There is another secret here, and few outsiders know it - your master Zhuang Mohan is actually Xiao En's biological brother!"

Zhan Doudou frowned slightly, then smiled and said, "This secret may be of use to me."

After that, she accepted the instruction with awe, stood up and saluted, saying, "Thank you for your guidance, mother."

The Queen Mother's eyes brightened and she felt relieved.
-
When the young prince came out of Shoukang Palace, he saw the three women still waiting there. As for Li An, he had already left. Zhan Doudou frowned and asked in a low voice, "Why are you still waiting here? Where is An'er?"

"We want to wait for His Highness to return together."

Another person also hurriedly replied: "Sister An'er said she was not feeling well and has returned to the East Palace."

This is eye drops.
This Li Ang is so ruthless!

"Return to the East Palace!"

Now Zhan Doudou is not yet the emperor but only the crown prince. Although he has been learning to handle state affairs more than a year ago, he spends most of his time reviewing memorials in the East Palace.

If some major event occurred or it was a routine court meeting, it would be led by the Queen Mother and held in the main hall of the imperial palace.

Logically speaking, since Sean was captured, the ministers should have been summoned to discuss a rescue plan. But for some reason, no minister brought up the matter and it was treated as an ordinary tragedy.

The Jingzhao Prefecture in Shangjing City took over the case, and there was no further movement after that.

Anyone with a discerning eye could recognize that they were the Black Cavalry of Qing, but they had not even sent a letter to Nanqing to lodge a protest. There would be no result anyway, so they might as well make up for it somewhere else.

This is the current Northern Qi court.

The sun sets.

Zhan Doudou has been more diligent than usual these days, and has been less lazy. It is obvious that she is also very serious about the coronation ceremony.

The processed memorials were thrown on the desk, and the eunuchs would classify and organize them.

He stood up and stretched without caring about his image.

"Let's have dinner at Concubine Li's house today." Zhan Doudou ordered softly, as if talking to the air.

The eunuch in charge of sorting things bowed and said he would pass on the message later.

Zhan Doudou walked out of the study and headed towards the elegant courtyard where Li An was without any hesitation.

After a night of nourishment, Zhan Doudou's eyes and eyebrows looked more feminine even in her men's clothing. She was tall but still plump, which was just right.

When she came hurriedly with a group of palace maids and eunuchs, wanting to see her 'beloved concubine' as early as possible, she saw Li An and the maid Xiaomao tugging and cuddling under the tree!
"An'er!"

With a loud shout, he launched an army to hold the culprit accountable.

"Greetings, Your Highness." Li An and Zhan Doudou were both in that state, so there was no need to be polite. Just lowering their heads slightly was considered a greeting.

Ang Lee was really disgusted by such auspicious gifts as the kitten, and said that he couldn't make it.

The little prince looked at Li An rudely and said viciously, "Didn't I tell you long ago that I would have dinner here today? Why don't you go down and prepare? Kitty, you are being lazy here again. Have you finished your own work?"

"Your Highness, forgive me."

The kitten stuck out his tongue. His Highness had always been the most tolerant in the past, but why is he so tolerant today?
