"Little Pig, is it really you?"

Chen Jiao was caressing her tears, staring at the figure in front of her blankly.

"Um."

Wang Xiao leaned over and hugged her in his arms, gently patting her back, "It's me, don't be afraid. With me here, no one can bully you."

After hearing this, Chen Jiao simply clenched her fist and hit him, "It's you who bullied me!"

If Chen Jiao's state before was a person who hated the sky and the earth, and wished that the world would be destroyed, then now he was snuggling in Wang Xiao's arms, he was like acting coquettish.

Chen Jiao cares about the position of queen very much, but she cares about Wang Xiao too.

Not to mention the illusory feelings or something, the more pure reason is that Chen Jiao cannot accept the sunken cost.

Her hopes for this life have been betting on Wang Xiao, and of course it is impossible for her to give up at this time.

So when Wang Xiao appeared in front of her, Chen Jiao's reaction was very natural.

The Changmen Palace is located in Shanglin Garden. It is said to be a palace, but in fact it is just a villa similar to a royal garden.

He hugged Chen Jiao, who was crying and laughing, and didn't walk far away, and came to the bedroom.

I chased after him and saw Princess Guantao who came back after Wang Xiao, and greeted him here.

“No need for politeness.”

Putting down Chen Jiao, Wang Xiao waved his hand with a smile, "It's all my own people."

Princess Guantao looked happy and hurriedly called the palace servants to serve fruit meals, wine, and tea.

Wang Xiao sat in the middle without hesitation, comforting Chen Jiao beside him and said, "I didn't come to see you a few days ago because I can't make the Empress Dowager look bad."

It is obvious that he is throwing the blame. But Chen Jiao is selectively willing to believe it, and her focus is not here now.

"Why should Wei Zifu be appointed as the queen?"

Chen Jiao grabbed Wang Xiao's arm tightly, her eyes full of resentment, "Since the empress dowager is now retreating to Changle Palace, then I should let me get back to my queen."

Wang Xiao patted her little hand and glanced at Princess Guantao, who looked anxious not far away, "No."

"Why."

"First of all, the case of beating the empress dowager will not be forgotten because the empress dowager retreats to Changle Palace. The Han Dynasty governs the country with filial piety. If you do such a thing, if you can still be the queen, then the Han Dynasty will be in chaos."

Wang Xiao patiently explained, "Secondly, Wei Qing, the younger brother of Wei Zifu, can stand out. Now is the time to use him, so you must be at ease."

There is a saying that has not come out, that is, the poached egg Huo Qubing is growing up day by day. Now he practices martial arts and reads military books every day, and he will be born in a few years.

If Chen Jiao continues to be the queen, she will inevitably fight Wei Zifu. In that case, the only one who will be happy will be the Huns who are still unaware of it.

For the future of the great man, Chen Jiao can only get out of the position of queen.

"The last word."

Wang Xiao looked at Princess Guantao with a look of loss with a look of contempt. "The foreign relatives of the Han Dynasty are rampant, and the Queen Mother must change the matter of controlling the government!"

That's right, he was talking about Princess Guantao.

Although Princess Guantao seems to be very honest now, she has actually been a famous broker in Chang'an City since when Emperor Wen of Han was still in power decades ago.

As long as the money is in place and as long as Princess Guantao promises to help, there is nothing she can't do.

As for the harm caused to the Han people, Guantao said that I am not the emperor, so what does it have to do with me?

Chen Jiao is a noble lady who doesn't care about anything. If she continues to be the queen, she might have something wrong.

And Wei Zifu has no such thing.

Wei Qing has a good character, while Huo Qubing was taught by Wang Xiao himself.

Moreover, Wei Zifu had been guided by Wang Xiao for the incident of Gongsun He, which basically cut off the opportunity for the Wei family to take the opportunity.

But Chen Jiao is different here, because Princess Guantao has decades of experience in collecting money, and her true nature is hard to change.

As long as Chen Jiao is still the queen, she will definitely take money to do things like she used to.

Princess Guantao is not stupid, so naturally she can hear who Wang Xiao is talking about.

Because his affairs affected his daughter's position as queen, Guantao also felt ashamed.

She stood up and bowed to Wang Xiao and said, "Your Majesty, there is still affairs in the mansion."

"Can."

Wang Xiao nodded, "Let's go back, I will give you a kind decree to the Marquis of Tangyi in a while."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Seeing Guantao retreating, Wang Xiao shook his head secretly.

Among this family, Chen Jiao is a young lady, Guantao is even a tigress and requires money to die. As for Chen Jiao's two brothers, they are even worse than beasts.

In other words, Chen Wu is better, but unfortunately he is a short life.

Such a family becomes a queen and a relative, which is a typical trick on oneself.

"Little Pig." Chen Jiao looked at Wang Xiao with a gaze. "Is there really nothing I can do?"

"Then tell me." Wang Xiao held Chen Jiao's shoulders with both hands. "Are you with me for the position of queen?"

This question is like asking later on a blind date, "You want me to have a car, a house, a deposit, and both parents will die, but are you original?", which brings tons of heavy blows to the girl.

Chen Jiao is no longer brainless, so it is hard to say, "I married you just to be the queen."

Seeing Chen Jiao fall into silence, Wang Xiao took her into his arms and softly comforted her, "Let it go over the past. Let it live here in the future, how beautiful the green mountains and green waters are."

“I don’t like it here.”

Chen Jiao started to shed tears again, "It's too cold."

"fine."

Wang Xiao then comforted, "In fact, this place is better than Chang'an City, it is more comfortable. There are not so many rules and so many troubles. I just want to think about how to live a beautiful life all day long."

Chen Jiao looked up at him, "Little Pig, are you going to lock me up here?"

"What are you talking nonsense?" Wang Xiao raised his hand and slapped her on the erect. "Am I that kind of person? If you are really worried about anything, you will just die from a sudden illness."

Chen Jiao looked at Wang Xiao timidly, her eyes as if she was really afraid that Wang Xiao would let her die of sudden illness.

Wang Xiao was also very upset by this stupid sister, so he simply picked him up and strode to the bedroom behind him. "I dare to doubt me, I will punish you today."

Chen Jiao's eyes were as charming as silk and exhaled like orchid. "Little pig, how do you want to punish?"

"March Law!"

In ancient times, punishments were either beheading or hitting sticks.

Chen Jiao's beheading here is not enough, so she can only beat a stick.

From the afternoon of being beaten to the top of the moon and the willows, Chen Jiao, who was beaten to many military sticks, finally fell asleep with satisfaction.

When I slept until I woke up the next morning, I found that Wang Xiao was still there.

At this moment, Chen Jiao felt so happy.

"Little Pig." Chen Jiao hugged Wang Xiao tightly. "If you don't let me be the queen, then don't do it. Keep me here, and as long as you can come to see me often, I will live here."

"You have regarded the words I said to you yesterday as an indifferent ear to your ears."

Chen Jiao's pretty face turned slightly red.

When I was being beaten by military law yesterday, I did hear Wang Xiao say something in my ears. But in that environment, she couldn't stand being punished by military law. She was so dizzy that she still remembered what Wang Xiao said.

"Although you are not the queen, you can still treat me as the queen."

"As for what is locked up here, it's completely a story of no chicken. This place will be your palace in the future. If you want to live here, you can live there. If you don't want to, you can go anywhere."

Chen Jiao was very moved and raised her head and wanted to send her a kiss to her.

"Don't."

Wang Xiao raised his hand and pushed her head aside.

Facing Chen Jiao's puzzled gaze, Wang Xiao smiled and explained, "You haven't washed up yet, there is a smell in your mouth."

Chen Jiao's face turned red and she patted Wang Xiao repeatedly, "It's not you yet"

With the emergence of newspapers and the Shaofu spared no expense to create propaganda channels. What happened in Chang'an City will spread throughout the world in at most two months, and even the Huns can know it.

For Wang Xiao, who had mastered public opinion, he naturally promoted the empress dowager's morality in the newspaper, and Tian Fu and others were obsessed with profit and desire to be ministers.

Then the emperor said that he was grateful to God Haotian for his good life, and did not cut all the traitors in half and wrote a few words of misery. Instead, he confiscated all his property and sent him to do river workers to atone for his sins.

In the eyes of the Han people, the emperor is indeed a good emperor, not a bloodthirsty person.

However, in fact, these former nobles who had lost everything could not last long for working on the river with heavy physical strength.

Every day, they build dikes, smash stones, carry wood and soil, and their final outcome is very clear, that is, they are like on a river construction site.

The reason why Wang Xiao did not kill much is because there were many people involved this time.

According to the Han Dynasty's crime of involuntary conspiracy and not counting as female relatives, the total number of nobles, private soldiers, raiders, servants, slaves, etc. is tens of thousands.
