Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

"Yes. It was when he came to the palace these two times. He was always looking at Madam. The first time he saw him, he just stared at Madam in a daze. I thought I was wrong, but after presenting the ceremony, he dared to act Looking at my wife in front of me, the second time in the garden, his eyes just kept looking at you, this man is not upright." Defang clenched his fists, "Back then he was convicted because of his father, so he couldn't get married, but the amnesty Afterwards, he still didn’t get married. He said that he didn’t marry a wife because of the words of a fortune-teller. I think he had an affair with his wife. Maybe he was the one who encouraged his father to come to propose marriage. Coercing his wife and elder brother to seek an official position, these things will be known to outsiders sooner or later, and then his wife will be gossiped by others. I...can't let this happen, so...I want to transfer him out of Beijing as soon as possible, as long as he leaves , nothing will happen."

Concubine Di sighed and nodded, "The courtiers and concubines understand."

"Madam, I really hate Du Wenkai, but I promised Madam that I would not transfer him out of Beijing, so I did not lie to Madam. I really did not ask the officials to do the transfer this time, but..." Defang felt a little regretful Said, "It is indeed my fault."

Defang told Concubine Di about Li Mao's wrongful conviction and Du Wenkai's self-defeating because of the prostitute's quarrel and humiliation, "Ma'am, I really did something wrong this time. Ma'am, will you forgive me?"

"The concubine has never blamed the prince. The prince did everything to protect the concubine. The prince, these things are now in the past, and I will not mention it again in the future."

"Madam, do you really not blame me, forgive me for what I have done?"

Concubine Di nodded, and reached out to touch Defang's face, "This incident is all caused by the concubine, and it is the concubine's fault that the prince has become so haggard."

"Ma'am" De Fang hugged Concubine Di and said with a choked voice, "No matter what I do wrong in the future, don't keep silent, even if you scold me, just don't keep silent, okay?"

"Okay, the concubine agrees to the prince."

"Thank you Madam." Defang kissed Concubine Di on the forehead, "Madam, I can remedy this matter."

"My lord, there is no need. The dispatch order has been issued. There is nothing wrong with sending Du Wenkai to other counties. He is doing things for the people of his home country. I believe he will make good political achievements."

"I promised Madam, I will not break my promise." Defang took out an imperial decree from his sleeve, "Madam, look at this."

"Imperial decree? What is His Majesty's decree for the prince?"

"It's not for me, it's for Du Wenkai." Defang said, "I have explained to His Majesty that the case of Li Mao was caused by my fault, and the matter of the female prostitute was also an unprovoked disaster. Your Majesty has withdrawn the order from the Ministry of Officials and stayed in office." Du Wenkai."

"My lord, did you really ask His Majesty to withdraw the dispatch?"

"Yes, the decree is here, how could I lie to Madam."

"My lord, you actually let His Majesty make an imperial decree for Du Wenkate. This concubine really didn't expect it."

Defang smiled slightly, "I didn't expect me to be so good, did I?"

"Yes, the Ministry of Officials issued an order, and His Majesty actually issued an order to revoke it. This kind of thing is really rare."

"Ma'am, my elder brother told me: there is nothing in Song Dynasty that the eight sage kings can't do." De Fang looked at the imperial decree, "So I can't break my word, madam."

"My lord, my concubine also has something to tell you. I believe that after I finish talking, my lord's knot will be untied."

"Ma'am, what's the matter?"
