Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

"Going back to my father, I'm very busy. There are a lot of books from all walks of life."

"It looks like I'll be busy for five or six days."

"Yes, Father, why did you come to the Ministry of War?"

"Come here and see if my prince is serious about things, hehehe"

"My child is serious, not sloppy at all."

"Okay." Defang patted Weixian, "It seems that I can't go back to the house for lunch."

"Yes, father, I'm afraid I won't be able to go back to the residence at night."

"It's important to deal with the adults carefully. The father will tell your mother. By the way, your uncle will return to Beijing in three days. You can tell them in a while, and the father will go back."

"Yes, Father" Wei Xian handed over

Defang quietly left the military department again, went down the steps and saw that Baili was still talking about Jiajun, so she stepped forward and said, "Baili, you don't have enough saliva to talk about?"

Baili saluted, "My lord, are you out?"

"Yes, if you don't come out again, Jiajun's ears are covered with calluses, hehehe" Defang sat back in the sedan chair and returned to the palace. In the afternoon, Concubine Defang Di was drinking tea in the Mingfang Pavilion. Said, "My lord, it's a good day, why don't you let the two sisters come and sit together."

Defang thought for a while, "Alright, let's talk together."

"Ke'er, go and invite the two ladies." Concubine Di turned her head and said to De Fang, "My lord, I have something to discuss with you."

"Discussion? What's the matter, madam?"

"What does the lord think of the two younger sisters?"

"How? Why does Madam ask such a question?"

"Both younger sisters have moved into the inner courtyard for several months, this concubine thinks..."

"Don't think about it, ma'am." De Fang waved her hand, "I still haven't forgotten what happened to the third madam last time."

"The two younger sisters are also concubines of the prince. Since they have moved into the inner courtyard, the prince should..."

"I know and understand, but... let's take it slowly."

"Slow? Does the prince want them to wait another 20 years?"

"Ma'am, I know I'm sorry for them, but I haven't been with them for more than 20 years. Let me get used to it."

"How does the prince want to adapt?"

"Just...like now...sit together and drink tea...talk...and then...right..."

"The prince and his concubine thought of getting together"

"Huh? What... want to be together?"

"After a while, the two younger sisters will come over to have tea and chat with us. Let the fourth lady serve the prince tonight."

"Ma'am, what are you talking about?" Defang didn't know whether she was blushing or angry, her expression was very complicated, and Concubine Di smiled, "The prince once said that he didn't want to take the concubine because he didn't want to hurt them for the rest of his life, and he didn't want them to follow him to worry about being hurt." I'm afraid, but it's different now, there's nothing to worry about, and... the late emperor has been gone for ten years, and the prince's heart disease is long gone, so why bother the two younger sisters."

Defang sighed, "Ma'am, I can't forget all the pain in the past, but the matter of the third and fourth wives is indeed my fault. I let them spend more than [-] years of vacant nights out of selfishness. Now...I just...can't pass this test in my heart."

Concubine Di shook Defang's hand, "The prince's love for his concubines is as deep as the sea, and all the concubines understand, so let the concubines help the prince pass this test."

Defang looked at Concubine Di and said, "Ma'am, there is a queen in the palace who controls the harem. It seems that my concubine in Nanqing Palace can also control the inner courtyard."

"Is it just the inner courtyard?"

Defang shook her head, "It's wrong, it's the entire Nanqing Palace, no, no, it's... the entire Nanqing Palace including the lonely king."
