Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

Wang Jien ignored Li Yu, and just as he was about to turn around and return to the palace, he saw Defang standing aside, so he said, "Your Highness, why are you here?"

Defang cupped her hands and said, "Boss, I'm waiting for Madam, she is pregnant, I'm afraid of any mistakes, so I'm waiting for her here."

"Your Highness really loves his wife." Wang Jien smiled, "Look at the heavy snow. Your Highness and the princess should not catch the cold, and go back home to rest earlier."

"Yes, sir, we'll be right back," Defang replied

"Well" Wang Jien nodded, arched his hands and went back to the side hall. Li Yu stood there with an anxious face, and Defang stepped forward and said, "Mr. Jun, you should go back and wait first."

"This... But Ma'am, she hasn't come out yet... I..."

"Your Majesty, didn't the manager just say something? I'm just talking, and I'll be back soon."

"Then I'll wait here"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty has sent Manager Wang to deliver an order. If you don't go back, you will be resisting the order, which will cause you trouble."

After Defang persuaded her for a long time, Li Yu returned in a sedan chair. After Li Yu left, Mingzhi said, "Ms. Zheng Guo is really a poor person."

"Why did Madam say that?" Defang was puzzled

"Your Highness, let's go home first." Mingzhi got on the sedan chair, Defang shrugged, and also got on the sedan chair and returned.

In the evening, Defang and Mingzhi were resting on the bed, Defang turned over and said, "Ma'am, what did you mean by what you just said?"

"Your Highness, today His Majesty summoned the wives, and everyone had rewards, but when it came to Mrs. Zheng Guo, the rewards were gone. So His Majesty said that Mrs. Zheng Guo should sit down for a while, and let everyone else leave the palace."

"What's so pitiful?" Defang smiled, "Just take the reward."

"But just now Wang Ji'en said that His Majesty left Mrs. Zheng Guo to speak."

"What's wrong with that?"

"Your Highness, Your Majesty is very drunk." Ming Zhi approached De Fang again, and said softly, "Your Majesty has been looking at Mrs. Zheng Guo. When Mrs. Zheng Guo saluted, His Majesty helped her get up."

Defang blinked, "Uncle Huang treats the Duke and Mrs. Zheng Guo favorably, everyone knows that."

"Your Highness, have you ever seen His Majesty favoring the Duke?"

"Huh?" Defang was taken aback when he heard this, "Ma'am, what do you mean?"

"Your Majesty is just favoring Mrs. Zheng Guo."

"Ma'am, why am I getting more and more confused the more I listen?" Defang rubbed her head

"Your Highness, why can't you figure it out?" Ming Zhi said, "Your Majesty likes Mrs. Zheng Guo at all, and keeping her to talk is just an excuse. Otherwise, can Wang Jien deliver the things in person, and pass the word in front of the palace gate?"
