Eternal traitor

Chapter 269 Eating
Following the little eunuch along the way, there were fewer and fewer people, and finally Li Hua stopped in front of a heavily guarded palace gate.Pushing open the door, the little eunuch stopped and signaled Li Hua to enter by himself.

As soon as he entered, the door behind him was closed.Since a barrier was placed in front of the main hall, Li Hua couldn't see clearly what was going on inside, but... Li Hua could smell a familiar smell.

After bypassing the barrier, Li Hua finally saw Ying Zheng and Queen Ji inside.At this time, the two had already sat in their respective seats, and there was a vacant table with braised pork and various delicious dishes and a soft seat. It was obvious that they were waiting for Li Hua's arrival.

"Li Hua has met the queen and His Highness."

Walking forward, Li Hua quickly saluted the two already, and lowered his head to stop looking at the beautiful woman, Queen Ji.Queen Ji was young at the moment, and her appearance was at its peak. At this time, she was a little more majestic, a little more haggard, and her beautiful face was a little more pale.

"Young Master Li is really a good-looking talent, please sit down quickly."

Ying Zheng here did not speak, but Queen Ji, who was sitting on the main seat, had already invited Li Hua up, looking at Li Hua with a satisfied smile on his face.

"Thank you queen."

Li Hua came to his seat with his head down, sat down and looked at Ying Zheng beside him, and found that Ying Zheng was also sitting in his seat without any sign.

"Today, the palace called you here because of the marriage that the king talked about on his deathbed. This matter should have been held today, but you also saw that the king left suddenly, so we delayed it for a while."

Queen Ji also apologized a little more when she spoke, and her gentle tone sounded extraordinarily comfortable.

"What the queen and His Highness mean, I understand that this matter really needs some time to prepare."

Li Hua wanted Queen Ji to withdraw this marriage even more, but now it seems that Queen Ji is not an easy-going lamp, and she has no intention of letting go of this marriage at all, otherwise it would be impossible for him to come here .

"From now on, we will be a family. Zheng'er is still young, and I still need your help in matters above the court."

Even Queen Ji, who doesn't know much about the affairs of the imperial court, knows how important Li Hua is. If there is no Li Hua, there will be no carriages, restaurants, concrete roads, and roads still under construction. tens of thousands of refugees.

"The queen is polite, and Li will naturally do his best to assist His Highness."

From the beginning to the end, Li Hua didn't look at Queen Ji more, and he continued to cater to Queen Ji's polite words.What did you say to help Ying Zheng?Ying Zheng has more thoughts than himself now, and what he should do is all a matter of a word from the boss.

"By the way, I have time to bring your sister into the palace and let me take a good look at it. I have heard that your sister Li Muxue is a beautiful and clever little girl. She happens to be with Zheng'er. Zheng'er is Less witty."

"Yes, I must keep this in mind."

Where did the news about Queen Ji come from?Li Hua doesn't know, but his younger sister is indeed a bit clever, but your family Yingzheng is not stupid, there are a lot of cleverness, if these two are really together, Li Hua is really worried that his sister will suffer.

"Okay, okay, eat quickly, it will be cold in a while."

Queen Ji nodded, obviously she was very satisfied with Li Hua's understanding.

"Yes."

"Yes."

Li Hua and Ying Zheng responded in unison, and quickly wiped out the food in front of them.Although a few people were hungry, their chests pressed against their backs, but in consideration of etiquette, everyone still ate small mouthfuls slowly.For a simple meal, Li Hua ate with the two for a full 10 minutes.

If Li Hua ate alone, the battle would definitely be resolved in 5 minutes.The servants cleaned up the mess on the chopping board, while Li Hua sat quietly on the soft seat, not knowing what to do.

The silent air didn't last long, but Queen Ji spoke again. "Li Hua."

"The subordinate is here."

Li Hua sat upright and hurriedly responded.

Queen Ji sat on the main seat and put away her previous gentle aura, and the smile on her face was much less. Looking at Li Hua with her head bowed, Queen Ji said softly. "I heard from Zheng'er that you are now in charge of the restaurant of Baimao United, and you are also in charge of the cement road?"

Queen Ji's question made Li Hua's heart flutter. The cement road is indeed in his name, but the restaurant is in Ying Zheng's name. It's just a surreptitious profit from his own business. The money is all handed over to Ying Zheng, and he can only be regarded as a puppet.

Li Hua seemed to be looking at Ying Zheng's face at this time, but he still dismissed this idea in his heart. Since Queen Ji asked, he should answer it himself. "Queen, these two properties are indeed in charge of the lower officials."

"Li Hua, the matter of your sister's marriage needs to be taken care of, and the refugee matter cannot be let go. Do you think I need to arrange someone to take over your position? Will you be transferred back after the wedding is over?" After Queen Ji finished speaking, she looked at Li Hua, who had an ugly face, and continued, "Don't get me wrong, I'm just afraid that you will be tired."

"Thank you, Queen, for your understanding." Li Hua raised his head and said with a troubled expression on his face, "Your Majesty entrusted me with a heavy responsibility, and I will definitely complete the task from the beginning to the end. Thank you, Queen, for your understanding. As for the replacement... ·····Please rest assured, the queen, Li will definitely live up to the king's wishes."

"Good... good... good... good."

The smile on Queen Ji's face disappeared instantly, and there was a little more anger in Li Hua's eyes when she looked at Li Hua.Now that King Qin is dead, and Yingzheng is too young to make decisions, Queen Ji, who is listening in, is the biggest ruler in Qin.I want something from you, how dare you refuse to give me something, and even use the dead King Qin to suppress me, how brave you are.

"My queen, the restaurant and cement matters are too involved, and my son also thinks that we shouldn't change candidates. Please think again, my queen."

Li Hua's tough attitude annoyed Queen Ji and Ying Zheng naturally could see it, so he immediately stood up and smoothed things over.To be honest, he didn't even know that Queen Ji begged Li Hua for the restaurant and cement to take power.My mother suddenly intervened in political affairs, and her purpose was so strong and decisive.

He wouldn't believe that no one here suggested that Ying Zheng be killed, but who could instruct Queen Ji, who is the queen, who will soon be the queen mother?

It was originally just a simple dinner, but now it has become like this, Ying Zheng and Li Hua seemed to smell the smell of conspiracy at the same time.
