Zhang Yanling followed Xiao Anzi into the palace, and he was still in Donghua Gate.

After entering the palace, he went straight to Kunning Palace. This place was already considered the inner garden of the palace. The palace maids and eunuchs would salute each other along the way. It seemed that Zhang Yanling had not entered the inner garden of the palace for many times, and was already familiar to the palace people.

When I arrived in Kunning Palace, I didn’t see Queen Zhang, but I saw a girl about two years old standing on the table by the palace maid.

The girl in the palace is so precious. She is obviously his niece. Zhu Xiurong, who was named Princess Taikang in the future and died at the age of four.

When the little princess saw a stranger, she immediately hid in the arms of an older woman, who seemed to be her wet nurse.

"Sir, the Empress is in the inner hall and will come out in a while."

A middle-aged eunuch came over and talked to Zhang Yanling, it was Zhang Yong.

Zhang Yanling smiled and nodded, not asking about the other party's identity.

Obviously, he knew him before, but now he says he doesn't know him and needs to explain, which is very troublesome.

Looking at the palace maids next to him, he was a little evasive to him. Obviously, he had a bad reputation and might have bullied these palace maids in the palace.

"Little princess, come here and call me uncle. I am your second uncle. I have good things here."

Zhang Yanling casually took out a small silver ingot from his arms, and wanted to tease the little princess. In ancient times, he naturally had to bring some money to accompany him.

The little princess was indeed attracted by the gloves that Zhang Yanling had put out and was about to reach out to get them, but a woman with a loud voice came from inside: "Yanling, are you here?"

Zhang Yanling stuffed Xiao Yin's turtle back into his arms.

When the little princess saw that the thing was gone, she seemed very angry, and stomped her feet and almost cried, "Madam, I want it..."

The princess's wet nurse dared not act rashly, so she hurriedly hugged the little princess inside.

Zhang Yanling looked up and happened to see a graceful young woman coming out. She gave him a glance before comforting her daughter, and asked the wet nurse and the palace maid to carry the little princess inside.

"Why did you mess with Xiaorong?"

Queen Zhang came over and seemed not to wait for Zhang Yanling to show her salute, so she sat down and asked.

Zhang Yanling smiled and said, "I didn't wait until the queen came out when I was away, so I would tease the princess with a little thing."

Queen Zhang didn't care.

For Queen Zhang, this was just an ordinary meeting with her younger brother, but for Zhang Yanling, it was his first time to meet Queen Zhang.

"Sit down."

After Queen Zhang greeted her, Zhang Yanling sat down and before he sat down, he even gave a salute.

No matter what the body was in before, Zhang Yanling thought to create a posture that understood etiquette.

Copying according to the rules is not a long-term solution, but you still need to develop in a good direction.

"Your brother-in-law also talked about you before, saying that you have done several major things recently, which made him look at him with admiration. He also said that there may be a person who is a general and a minister in the future, and your brother-in-law is very optimistic about you."

Queen Zhang's words showed that she did not regard this place as a palace at all, nor would she care about red tape with Zhang Yanling.

Zhu Youzhang was called "your brother-in-law", which means that Zhang Yanling used to call Queen Zhang just his sister or older sister.

Zhang Yanling looked ashamed: "Your Majesty praised you. You were attacked and told me a few things directly. According to reason, even if you are a relative of the foreigner, you cannot be wronged by others."

Queen Zhang continued to frown and said, "Yanling, why do I think your words are very different from before?"

While speaking, she looked at Zhang Yanling with her wonderful eyes, as if she wanted to find out where there was a difference between Zhang Yanling.

Then he looked at Zhang Yong who was standing beside him, hoping to find recognition in Zhang Yong's eyes.

"Everyone will grow up no matter what my sister says. I just learn some etiquette and don't want to be impeached if I have no rules in the palace." Zhang Yanling found an excuse for his own changes, and he was laughing and kissed when he spoke.

Queen Zhang said relievedly: "It's still the same as when I was a child, with a smile on her face. There are some snacks here, just take them and eat them."

The sister cared for her younger brother and was so concerned that Zhang Yanling could deeply feel that Queen Zhang’s reputation for supporting her brother was proven to be true.

But the problem is that even if it is a palace snack, Zhang Yanling couldn't get up to his appetite after seeing it.

"Sister, I'm not a child either. I'll leave this snack for the next time. Today I'm still investigating the case. If there's nothing else, I'll go back first."

Zhang Yanling looked anxious.

That was a big deal about his money. He was called by his sister and felt uncomfortable all over. How could he be more interesting than commanding the Jinyiwei to search the house outside?

Queen Zhang gave Zhang Yanling a blank look and said a little angrily: "Why are you in a hurry? If you ask you to come, you can't sit for more?"

"This time I asked you to come, which is about your renewal. The day before yesterday, my mother came to the palace and mentioned to me that you have never had any trouble with you. She also said that you have driven away all the concubines in your family recently. What is this? Isn't it good to keep it for you to have a few children?"

Zhang Yanling thought to himself that his sister is her sister, and she means obediently, and she seems to support him in finding more women.

"Sister, my marriage is my own business, so you don't have to worry about it, right?" Zhang Yanling seemed to be very resistant to this matter in his words.

Queen Zhang said dissatisfiedly: "Mom and I don't worry, who will worry about you? Your elder brother went to Mount Tai to find the fairy grass, but he couldn't come back for a while. Originally, your brother had a helping hand outside, but now you are the only one in the capital."

Only then did Zhang Yanling know why Zhang Heling was not in the capital.

The so-called businessman in love is to find "immortal grass". Thinking of Zhu Youzhang's favor for Li Guang now, it is probably Li Guang's fault, so Zhang Heling volunteered to make contributions.

Zhang Yanling thought to himself: "This brother is probably because Li Guang felt that it was in the way, so he simply found an opportunity to send him away, so he would not delay Li Guang doing whatever he wanted in the capital."

"Actually, I have mentioned this to your brother-in-law. Your brother-in-law is also very supportive. He means to let you marry Princess Deqing. She is very talented, knowledgeable and characterful. When she is a good age, she is also very virtuous in the eyes of literary and historical officials. If you marry her, you can also go more with the old ministers of the court. It will be very helpful for you to become an official in the court in the future."

Zhang Yanling thought to himself, you really intend to match me and that princess.

Zhang Yanling said impatiently: "Sister, it's okay for me to marry someone else. If you marry a princess, it's like wearing a tight curse. If you want to marry a concubine or find a woman in the future, you will always be controlled by someone. What's the point?"

Queen Zhang frowned and said, "I thought you were on the right path, but I didn't finish the three words, but my true colors were revealed."

The more she said this, the more relieved Zhang Yanling was.

Not having a correct appearance is the image of Queen Zhang’s younger brother.

Empress Zhang first cried out, then said slightly more generously: "Even if you marry a princess, it will not delay your concubine. Princess Deqing and your brother-in-law are not born by the same mother. They are just an ordinary princess. It is her blessing to marry her."

Zhang Yanling felt ashamed after hearing this.

This sister is indeed domineering, and even the sister-in-law who is a princess can not take it seriously.

Queen Zhang seemed to remember something and said angrily: "The day before yesterday, Princess Yongkang ran to the palace to find your brother-in-law, saying that you had rude behavior when you met Deqing, and said it was like our Zhang family was tall. My sister thought that even if you marry Princess Deqing, you can still have three wives and four concubines in the future. If you can't find a good one, sister can give you a few from the palace."
