Chapter 923: Please Your Majesty Grace and Rain and Dew (Second Update)
Chapter 923
Liu Zhi looked at the little face in front of him with a dull expression, and looked at his Ma Shang very seriously. “…… Ahem, Your Majesty is worried about Niangniang, naturally it should be, but for the sake of family affairs, this can't delay state affairs......"
"Liu Xiang's words are wrong, can it be said that whether Your Majesty has children or not is not a big matter related to the society of the world?" Ma Shang looked at Liu Zhi with a very surprised look, it looked like a revolutionary red soldier looking at a traitorous lackey who had betrayed the people.
With that expression and eyes, Liu Zhi almost wanted to raise his hand to give this stinky boy an old punch.
"Father-in-law Ma, how can you say that, Liu Xiang is naturally worried about my Dajiang's Jiangshan Sheji, so this gaffe will occur, and I ask my father-in-law Haihan to ......" Fortunately, there was a more slippery old driver next to him who hurriedly came out to interject and speak.
"Ladies and gentlemen, during this time, Your Majesty is worried about Niangniang's body and the heirs in the womb, and I am very worried in my heart, and I ask you to be more considerate and less to mention some things that upset Your Majesty, okay, our family still has to go to the official's house, and you elders say goodbye......"
After saying that, Ma Shang threw down the stunned court ministers and patted their buttocks and ran directly to the back door. A cadre of important officials in the court, you look at me, I look at you, they are all speechless.
Liu Zhi stroked his beard for a long time, stomped his feet helplessly and sighed. "That's it, Your Majesty and the queen have a deep relationship, and you have to worry about the queen's twins in the womb, upset, it's not that Ma Gonggong is talking nonsense, let's put this matter aside for the time being......"
"But Liu Xiang, if it drags on like this, this, how is this good......" The Ministry of Rites Shangshu couldn't help but be a little anxious.
"Why, the household department, the three divisions and the Privy Council are not in a hurry, why are you in such a hurry for a secretary of the Ministry of Rites?" Liu Zhi finally couldn't bear it anymore, glared at the colleague viciously, snorted coldly, and walked away.
"Master Hu, you, it's not good to be too anxious." Zhu Guangting, who was next to him, couldn't help but snort, and patted the shoulder of the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, which was meaningful.
These days, it is no secret that several groups of Liao traders have entered and exited the mansion of the Ministry of Rites, but everyone does not say it.
Not only him, but also the Liao envoys who stayed in the Great Song Dynasty have also been in and out of the mansions of many officials many times, which is the fundamental reason why everyone maintains a tacit understanding.
It's just that this secretary of the Ministry of Rites is too eager, and this style of acting, how can there be a little bit of literati style, which is really disappointing.

After Ma Shang left the main hall from the back door, he hurried for a while, and soon, he saw Zhao Xu, the son of heaven, who was deliberately walking slowly, and hurriedly gave a deep salute. "Official ......"
"Well, how's it going, Pony, how are those guys doing?" Zhao Xu asked after bowing slightly towards him.
"The servant did as you instructed and explained to those ministers, and it really worked, and the officials were really wise." Ma Shang hurriedly slapped his ass over and raised his thumb to show His Majesty's wisdom and martial arts.
Zhao Xu couldn't help but laugh out loud, but after only laughing a few times, he seemed to feel that something was inappropriate, coughed dryly, and quickened his pace. "Let's go, come with me to visit the queen, I am really worried about the queen and my two unborn children."
"Your Majesty, slow down......" Marchand hurriedly followed, heading towards the queen's bedroom.
Zhao Xu had just stepped into the main hall and couldn't help but be slightly stunned. "The Queen Mother?" At this moment, Empress Dowager Xiang was holding Empress Meng's hand and didn't know what to say, while Empress Meng hung her head, her face was full of embarrassment, but she didn't know how to answer.
"It turned out that the official family came back, and the mourning family didn't think that the queen would give birth in half a month, so they came over to take a look...... By the way, Ning, what are you still doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and give your majesty a salute? Empress Dowager Xiang let go of Empress Meng's hand with a smile, and greeted Zhao Xu, the Son of Heaven, with a loving face.
Of course, he didn't forget to reach out and pull over a young woman dressed in palace clothes who was standing beside him.
"The people's daughter Ning, I have seen Your Majesty......" The picturesque and pitiful Ning of the Ning family bowed to Zhao Xu, the son of heaven.
Zhao Xu, the Son of Heaven, laughed, raised his hand and helped him, strode to the Empress Dowager Xiang, and sat down with the Empress Dowager in her arms. "No courtesy, the queen mother quickly sit down, the child happened to disperse the morning court, worried about Zitong's body, so I came to take a look, but I didn't expect the queen mother to get up so early......"
"The mourning family is old, where can there be so much sleepiness, besides, my grandson is about to have it, and the mourning family naturally has to walk around here more......" Xiang said with a smile to the Queen Mother.
Zhao Xu, the Son of Heaven, chatted happily with the Empress Dowager Xiang, and the pot-bellied Empress Meng next to him was smiling on the side, while the Ning was standing quietly beside the Empress Dowager Xiang, with a pair of watery eyes, peeking at the pregnant belly of the Empress Meng from time to time.
After talking for a long time without nutrition, the Empress Dowager Xiang finally got to the point. "Your Majesty, now that the queen is heavy, and you are busy with government affairs, you have to worry about the queen, and you can't bear to mourn your family, no, this woman Ning is virtuous and sensible, knowledgeable and reasonable, and is a rare woman from a good family......"
Speaking of this, Xiang Xiang glanced at the Son of Heaven, who was still smiling, but unmoved, which made the Empress Dowager Xiang feel a little angry, but she could only endure it.
"So...... The mourning family thought that there was also an individual around the Meng family, so the mourning family picked and chosen, so they chose such a good woman with quick hands and feet and flexible mind to come and wait for the queen......"
"The queen mother's kindness, how can the child not receive it, since this is the case, then you can stay." Zhao Xu smiled, still smiling, not a little displeased. On the contrary, a trace of worry flashed in Meng Shi's eyes, but in the end, he still did not speak.
Seeing that his son opened his mouth to accept it, Xiang couldn't help but be overjoyed. "Good, good...... Just agree, Ning, you have to take good care of the queen and the emperor, don't go on a business trip, otherwise, even if Your Majesty and the queen spare you, the mourning family can't spare you. Do you understand? ”
"Niangniang, the folk girl understands that she must serve Niangniang and Your Majesty wholeheartedly, and dare not slack off......" Ning Shi hurriedly bowed to the ground, restrained the joy that was almost overflowing, and said with a sincere fear.
After a few more gossips, the Empress Dowager Xiang got up to leave, and Zhao Xu, as a son, naturally sent the Empress Dowager Xiang respectfully outside the door in person.
"The queen can become a pair in one fell swoop, this is my great Song Dynasty's fortunate event, and it is also my royal happy event, and I hope Your Majesty can be more gracious and rainy, so that my great Song clan can ......"
"The child understands, the queen mother, slow down, be careful not to fall, stay for two days, the affairs of the DPRK and China are not busy, the child will go to the queen mother to ask ......for peace," Zhao Xu nodded with sincerity and agreed.
After the Empress Dowager gradually drifted away, the smile on the face of Zhao Xu, the Son of Heaven, gradually faded......
