Big Song Xiaohou Ye

Chapter 163
"Qin'er doesn't know what's the matter. She is very gentle and gentle on weekdays. Even some slaves are...better than you. Did you offend her somewhere?" Zhao Zhen turned his head and muttered in confusion road.

Li Ce knew it by himself: he touched Zhao Qin'er's chest before, and it was almost settled. During the Cuju match, he was sleeping naked in the inn, and she stared at him again. This girl has already recognized her It's a shameless person.

Seeing his tangled expression, Zhao Zhen changed the subject and said, "I'm looking for you today for something important."

"Your Majesty, please speak."

"Today is the Empress Dowager's [-]th birthday, you should know that, right?"

"Weichen also found out on the way here."

"There is still more than an hour before the grand ceremony, but I haven't found an ideal gift for the Queen Mother. You are always clever, so help me find a way." Zhao Zhen said anxiously.

Li Ce's eyes widened, and he said in surprise, "Your Majesty, there is still an hour until the grand ceremony is about to begin. You are only telling me now, where am I going?"

Zhao Zhen sighed and said, "I have no choice. In fact, I wanted to tell you earlier, but the palace is busy these days, so I was delayed."

You are trying to trick me... Li Ce finally understood that these two brothers and sisters really deserved to be brothers and sisters, the younger sister finished cheating himself, and the older brother cheated.

"Li Ce, I can count on you. There are still many things that need to be arranged for the Queen Mother's birthday ceremony. I passed by Wende Hall and came to tell you in a hurry." After Zhao Zhen finished speaking, he patted Li Ce and wanted to leave. posture.

"Your Majesty..." Li Ce looked at him weeping.

"If you need money, go to the internal affairs treasury to withdraw it. Here, this is my jade pendant." Zhao Zhen thought that this guy wanted money again.

"Your Majesty, there is still an hour..."

"If this matter is done well, I will reward you with this jade pendant! From now on, you can come and go in and out of the palace as you please, and see the jade pendant in person!" Zhao Zhen gritted his teeth when he saw that this guy refused.

Sure enough, after hearing this, his eyes lit up obviously. He looked down at the green and transparent Nine Dragons jade pendant in his hand, and thought to himself: This jade pendant is the best of the best in quality. Ten thousand taels of silver, this deal is worth it!
"Weichen, do your best." Li Ce took the jade pendant calmly, and couldn't help but glance at it, it really is a good jade!
Zhao Zhen glanced at his jade pendant for the last time with some heartache, and seeing this guy's secretly delighted expression, he couldn't help but ordered again: "The gift for the Queen Mother doesn't have to be expensive, the key is to honor the Queen Mother's heart." I have always spent money like running water, and my own internal affairs treasury is just that little family property, so don't be defeated by this guy.

Li Ce was actually thinking about what kind of gift to prepare just now. At this moment, he had already made up his mind. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will send it to you in an hour."

Seeing that he seemed to have a plan in mind, Zhao Zhen couldn't help asking overjoyedly, "But you already have an idea?"

"I have some clues, but I'm still not sure. Your Majesty just needs to rest assured." Li Ce played tricks on purpose.

"I don't know how to rest assured? I am not the only one preparing this birthday gift. All the ministers and princes have prepared it. If you present it too ordinary or come too late, wouldn't I be very embarrassed?" Zhao said. Zhen suddenly remembered that this guy was late for the last Cuju match yesterday.

"Hey, by the way, yesterday's cuju competition, why did you delay?" Zhao Zhen wanted to ask him a long time ago.

Zhao Zhen only remembered this when he asked about Li Ce. He frowned and said, "Your Majesty, my minister was assassinated yesterday!"

"What?!" Zhao Zhen was taken aback.

"On the way here, I was ambushed by three masters. Fortunately, I was alert, otherwise Your Majesty would not have seen me this time."

"Who is so bold? Don't they know that you belong to me?" Zhao Zhen was furious.

Li Ce smiled casually. He didn't have direct evidence either. Although he was basically sure who it was in his heart, he couldn't easily say that because he didn't have any real evidence.

"He Ruinian again? I heard that he sent people to assassinate you on your way to Beijing!" Zhao Zhen's face became extremely ugly. To assassinate Li Ce would be to openly oppose him. These people are too lawless.

"It shouldn't be him. He hasn't had the guts to do anything in the downtown area of ​​the capital." Li Ce denied Zhao Zhen's guess.

"Then who else?" Zhao Zhen said angrily.

"Your Majesty, I have the guts to let you guess. In the situation at that time, if the humble minister was assassinated and died, who would benefit the most?" Li Ce said cautiously.

Zhao Zhen's eyes suddenly shot a bright light, he stared at Li Ce closely, gritted his teeth for a while and said word by word: "Zhao, Ji?"

"Weichen didn't say he was King Xiaoyuan, but at this moment, I can't think of another person." Li Ce said frankly.

"Hmph, this Zhao Ji, who dared to assassinate me, does he still take my elder brother seriously!" Zhao Zhen was so angry that he grabbed the teapot on the table and threw it out.

"Crack!" There was a crisp sound, and a good jade pot was smashed to pieces.

A young eunuch heard the sound and rushed in. When he saw Zhao Zhen's livid face, he couldn't help but tremble with fright. His Majesty has always been gentle and respectful. How could he be so angry today? This little eunuch just stood there in a daze. He didn't dare to go forward to clean up.

"It's none of your business, go out." Zhao Zhen waved his hand coldly.

The little eunuch, as if he had been pardoned, wiped off his cold sweat, and hurriedly bowed and retreated.

Li Ce secretly praised that Zhao Zhen is the number one benevolent monarch in ancient and modern times, and it seems to be true. Under his rage, a little eunuch rushed in in a hurry. How could he not take his anger out on this little eunuch? It seems that he is the boss Followed well.

"Li Ce, go investigate in secret to see if Zhao Ji did this. If he really did it, I will give you justice!" Zhao Zhen made up his mind that if Zhao Ji was really so daring, he would never do it. Spare him!
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Li Ce did not take it seriously, he also believed that Zhao Zhen definitely wanted to punish Zhao Ji, but even if he really had the evidence, it was confirmed that Zhao Ji did it, but he had the backing of the queen mother, I'm afraid Zhao Zhen will have nothing to do with him...

"Your Majesty, over there at the Daqing Palace..." The little eunuch who had gone out before came in again to report.

Zhao Zhen waved his hand, signaling him to go out first, and then he hurriedly said to Li Ce: "Anyway, the most urgent thing now is to prepare the congratulatory gift for the Queen Mother's birthday, and Li Cezhen will entrust this matter to you."
