Chapter 1463 The Situation Seems to Have Changed

The officials were discussing quietly at the city gate.

They all found it strange that the emperor actually wanted to go out of the city to greet Zhao Chen in person?

Even if some people know the reason, it is still difficult to accept this fact.

Even if you save the emperor, it is what you should do as a minister and a son.

"I don't know what His Majesty the Emperor thinks. Is this too accommodating to the King of Han?"

"If this continues like this, who else will be in the eyes of the King of Han?"

"Yes, I don't know what His Majesty the Emperor thinks!"

When the emperor came, many officials could be heard talking behind his back.

But the emperor didn't take it to heart and came to the city gate to greet Zhao Chen in person. He also had his own ideas.

"Your Majesty, when will Chen'er come back?" Queen Changsun and the emperor asked.

Ever since the news of the emperor's accident came back, Queen Changsun had been very worried.

I even thought for a while that something really happened to the emperor.

It was Zhao Chen who did it.

It wasn't until the emperor finally appeared in her palace safely that Empress Changsun breathed a sigh of relief.

Later, she heard the emperor say that Zhao Chen was injured because of saving him, and Empress Changsun was even more worried.

Fortunately, everything is not as bad as imagined.

Empress Changsun is looking forward to Zhao Chen's return today.

"It should be soon. Puzhou is only more than a hundred miles away from Chang'an. They all have horses. If they ride back, it should be enough in one or two hours." The emperor comforted Empress Changsun.

He also knew that Queen Changsun was looking forward to meeting Zhao Chen.

Queen Changsun nodded with a smile on her face.

The people along the way saw the emperor and a group of ministers standing here, and their faces were full of doubts.

I learned that the emperor and a group of courtiers were here to greet the King of Han.

The people also stopped one after another.

"I heard that your Majesty intends to make the King of Han the crown prince.

, but the officials in the DPRK and the Central Government didn’t buy it! "Some people whispered.

"I think His Highness the King of Han is very good. He is thousands of times better than the two previous princes."

"If it hadn't been for His Highness the King of Han, we would all have starved to death by now."

"Where can I live such a prosperous life like now!"

"Isn't that right? Becoming the crown prince when His Highness the King of Han is here will definitely bring us a better life."

"His Royal Highness the King of Han is more than capable. Just like Yeon Gaesumun, if the King of Han were in charge, he would still dare to start a war against me, the Tang Dynasty, as easily as before. I'm afraid it would be too late to escape."

"That's right, when His Highness the King of Han was trying to turn the tide at the border, the courtiers were still hiding in Chang'an and trembling!"

"Compared to His Highness the King of Han, these people are really useless. If Datang could have a few more people like His Highness the King of Han, I, the Tang Dynasty, would have nothing to worry about."

"Well, of course they only care about themselves, and their vision is not that low."

The people's discussions reached the ears of the ministers.

Listening to these common people's words, many ministers were even more ashamed or looked angry.

Of course they knew what they were doing was wrong, but they were really afraid that Zhao Chen would become the prince and then deal with them in every possible way.

How will they survive in the court in the future?

Don't you want to always look up to Zhao Chen?

"These bastards really don't know anything." An official cursed in a low voice.

The others did not dare to say anything.

They all know that they are in the wrong, why can't they let others scold them?

An hour passed quietly.

The emperor stood a little irritated.

Just about to ask someone

, and saw a person running over from the front: "Your Majesty, His Highness the King of Han and his entourage are already less than five miles away from here."

"Okay!" The emperor only said "ok", and then turned around and said to Empress Changsun: "Mr. Guanyin, that guy Chen is back!"

Queen Changsun nodded, her eyes full of expectation.

The five-mile journey was not far, and soon Zhao Chen appeared in front of the emperor and others on horseback.

"Boy Chen!" The emperor and Zhao Chen waved their hands, their faces full of joy.

Zhao Chen reined in the reins, then jumped off the horse and walked to the emperor and Empress Changsun.

"Your Majesty, Queen Mother." Zhao Chen saluted the two of them.

"It's good to come back, it's good to come back!" Queen Changsun took Zhao Chen's hand, and then patted it on the left and right.

"I heard from your father that your hand was injured. How is it now? Does it still hurt?" Queen Changsun and Zhao Chen asked softly. .??.

"Nothing happened. Everything is fine now. A little injury is not a problem." Zhao Chen said with a smile.

"It's okay."

"You child, please pay more attention to safety outside in the future. My mother couldn't sleep all night long thinking about you. Now that you are finally back, my mother is relieved!" Queen Changsun said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, Queen Mother!" Li Ruoshuang came from behind holding Ping An in her arms.

"Oh, you guys, when you leave Chang'an, you don't tell your mother in advance. She is very worried."

"Ping'an has grown up a little bit more." Queen Changsun reached out and hugged Ping'an, her face full of joy.

"Royal Grandma, this is the candied haws of apples given to you by Ping An. Eat one." Ping An took out a bunch of untouched candied haws of apples from his arms and stretched them out in front of Empress Changsun.

Empress Changsun was stunned for a moment, then she said with a smile: "Don't Ping'an like to eat candied haws the most? Why are you willing to give it to the imperial grandmother!"

"Daddy said the best thing

The gift should be left to the people closest to him. The imperial grandmother was the person closest to Ping An, so of course she had to eat a bunch of candied haws. "Ping An said in a milky voice.

"Ping'an is so good." Queen Changsun rubbed Ping'an's head with a doting look on her face.

The ministers felt a little uncomfortable looking at the harmonious and happy appearance of the emperor's family in front of them.

"Alright, it's almost time to return to the city." The emperor waved to everyone.

Then they returned to the royal chariot, and Queen Changsun hugged Ping An with her.

"Prime Minister, Prime Minister Wei, thank you for your hard work!" Zhao Chen walked up to Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng and said to them, cupping hands.

"His Royal Highness the King of Han has worked so hard. This trip to Qizhou is all thanks to His Highness the King of Han being by your Majesty's side." Fang Xuanling and Zhao Chen said.

Zhao Chen smiled.

He followed the emperor, but not willingly.

I just have a miserable life and there is nothing I can do about it.

"What are your plans next?" Wei Zheng suddenly asked.

Zhao Chen looked at Wei Zheng with a hint of doubt on his face.

Zhao Chen was very familiar with Wei Zheng. When he asked himself this, there must be something he wanted to tell him.

"What are your plans? I have just returned to Chang'an, so I naturally need to take a good rest." Zhao Chen said with a smile.

Wei Zheng looked like he was hesitating to speak, but he glanced at the emperor's chariot again and said nothing after all.

"That's right. I've been in Qizhou for so long and I just took a good rest. However, the situation at the border seems to have changed recently. You can pay more attention when you have nothing to do."

"Let's go. I'll go to your house in two days." After Wei Zheng finished talking to Zhao Chen, he left with his hands behind his back.

Fang Xuanling also bowed to Zhao Chen, and then left with Wei Zheng.

All the officials turned around and left impatiently.

They didn't want to stay with Zhao Chen at all.
