"Then when will Tong'er move to the main house? The main house is more spacious and comfortable." Sensing Xia Luotong's nervousness, the smile on Wu Zechen's lips deepened and got a little closer, almost to her ear.
Listening to the extremely sultry and charming voice, Xia Luotong swallowed subconsciously, feeling as if there were countless little hooks teasing him.
She turned her head slightly to look at him, but her sight was completely occupied by the handsome face so close at hand. After a moment of daze, she suddenly came back to her senses, couldn't help but glare at him, and then turned back to look away from him. But he forced himself to be calm and said: "I live very well in the wing. Don't tempt me all day long. Even on occasions like this, making such a fuss will damage your reputation as Prince An."
"How can loving your wife harm your reputation?" Wu Zechen looked at the man in front of him, whose earlobes turned pink, and his eyes became deeper and deeper. "If I don't seduce Tong'er, who else can I seduce? I don't know how. Give up."
"It's up to you! Sit down!" Not missing the sweetness in his heart, Xia Luotong's eyes were full of smiles, but he replied stiffly.
Looking at the little hand pushing him, he caught it with a smile and wrapped it tightly in his palm, as if he was holding it at the top of his heart.
However, he still took the situation at hand into account, and at the same time he didn't want others to see her so pretty, so he sat up straight, but did not let go of the intertwined hands.
Xia Luotong twitched his hand and saw that he couldn't break away at all, so he had no choice but to let him go.
After adjusting her breathing a few times and feeling the heat on her face fade away, she raised her head again and saw the rich smile in his eyes. She couldn't help but glare at him and said, "What kind of occasion is this? Be serious!"
"Then can I stop being immoral after I return home?" He asked with a chuckle.
Such words do not sound like what the normally stern Prince An would say? I'm afraid no one would believe it if it were spread!
Xia Luotong froze slightly, almost blushing again, so she could only ignore his words that were no different from teasing. She knew that this man would no longer act aloof in front of her, as long as he could lure her into his house. Here, she really can pull off all kinds of tricks, and she definitely can't compare!
She decisively changed the subject, looked at the seat where the princes and princesses were sitting, and asked, "Concubine Shu gave birth to the sixth princess Wu Xuanmeng, right? Is she here now?"
At this time, most of the princes and princesses were already present, including the prince. Xia Luotong had already noticed the prince's disgusting gaze, but she deliberately ignored them.
Wu Zechen glanced at her with a smile, stopped teasing her, turned to look at the opposite side and said: "As for the princess, the one sitting in the first seat is Wu Xuanmeng. Among the princesses who are still in the palace now, she belongs to She is the most favored, and like her mother, Concubine Shu, she is the best at pleasing the emperor."
The sixth princess Wu Xuanmeng has a bright appearance and can be regarded as a rare beauty. There is a hint of a concubine in her eyebrows.
Thinking of Wu Xuanmeng's arrogant and domineering appearance when she rode her horse in the street and scolded the people that day, and then thought of the news she later learned about, she couldn't help frowning and said: "Don't you think the emperor knows about her words and deeds like that? ?”
"Of course I know." Wu Zechen said quietly.
"Since he knows, does he just ignore his daughter? Let her be so rampant?" Xia Luotong asked in surprise, her voice was extremely low, and she whispered close to him.
After all, they were discussing the current emperor and princess, and they were in the main hall, so they couldn't be too blatant.
"He himself doesn't take the people seriously, so how can he care about his daughter? He's just following the example." Wu Zechen looked slightly cold, "In his eyes, the people are nothing more than tools. There is nothing like them." He cares more about rights. Think about the situation of those refugees. This is the case in the capital at the feet of the emperor, let alone other places?"
There was a coldness in Wu Zechen's eyes that could not be dissipated. If the late emperor had not worked hard to manage the great Zhou Dynasty and handed it over to the emperor, I am afraid that the great Zhou Dynasty would have been tortured by the emperor.
Nowadays, the northern and southern barbarians are still under the suppression of themselves and the Si family. However, the Gudan Kingdom in the north and the Polish Kingdom in the southwest have been getting ready to make trouble recently, and the Nanlin Kingdom in the south is also uneasy. Because General Dingnan, Lord Xi, has also been detained in the capital for a long time. Without the general to guard him, how can Nanlin country still sit still?
Now among the five generals, General Pingxi and General Dingnan are both in the capital. The former Southwest General Chu Junxiu is also getting weaker and weaker. The current deputy general Yue, who is in charge of the army, is simply unable to suppress Poland.
The Zheng family and the Wu family of the Northern Army are two idiots. Now they are more and more greedy for pleasure. They have not noticed what a threat the growing Gudan Kingdom is. They still feel that everything is under their control and they only care about fighting for power and power. Infighting.
If the Si family in the northwest had not been supported by the Queen Mother, General Si would have been detained in the capital by the emperor.
Wu Zechen sneered disdainfully in his heart. The emperor did this in order to chip away at the military power in their hands bit by bit. But hasn't his respected uncle noticed that even if the military power was taken back, it would not be in his hands. ? Now among the generals in charge of military power who are favored by him, how many are truly loyal to him? How many people are really him?
These military powers will eventually fall into the hands of a few princes' mother families, which will strengthen the families of these princes and make the Zhou Dynasty even more precarious.
Xia Luotong now only thinks, what is the difference between this emperor and a foolish king?
But naturally she wouldn't say these words, and instead asked a few other people: "The ones next to the prince are the second prince and the third prince, right?"
Nowadays, the prince and princess are quite famous. Wu Zechen has told her the general situation in the past few days, because the more she understands the situation, the better she can make judgments and deal with various emergencies, so Wu Zechen can treat her He said that he knew everything, but he was not like ordinary men who felt that there was no need for women to know these things.
What Xia Luotong had to do at this time was to remember the faces of these people and correspond to the situations Wu Zechen had told him.
"The seats on the right hand side of the prince are the second prince and the third prince. Nowadays, these three princes are the most powerful. As for the younger brothers behind them, they naturally have some thoughts, but their strength is greater than those three. There are many differences." Wu Zechen patiently explained one by one, "There are also several princes and princesses who did not attend the banquet. Most of them are because they are of low status or have no mother to rely on. They are not favored or welcomed in the palace. Life is difficult, so they have never been qualified to participate in such a banquet."
The current emperor actually has many children, but most of them are unknown, and some of them are even worse off than the children of concubines from officials' families, and they do not have the honor that princes and princesses deserve.
