Chapter 437 Hello, hey, hey! I'm the Queen Mother. Who are you?
The next day, after the little emperor finished his morning court, the eunuch beside him reported to him that General Qi wanted to see him.
Zhou Chenghao was about to sit down, but his body stiffened slightly when he heard this.
Then, he looked at the eunuch weakly, pitifully and helplessly, "Help me think, how long has it been since I went to Chengyang Palace to visit the Queen Mother?"
The eunuch was one of the young emperor's confidants.
Mo Mo looked up at his pale face and replied softly, "Your Majesty went to have dinner with the Queen Mother yesterday evening. Princess Fu'an was also there."
Zhou Chenghao finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Then... wait a minute! Am I going there too often?"
The eunuch could not answer this question.
Because a steady sound of footsteps was approaching and was about to come in.
How could the eunuchs not be afraid of someone who the little emperor was afraid of?
He immediately took a step back, lowered his head, looked at his nose, and looked at his heart, not daring to say a word.
Zhou Chenghao sat down with his shoulders drooped and forced a fake smile at the man who walked in.
"General Qi."
"Your Majesty, have you heard about the Su family's daughter going to Cijing Temple?"
Qi Changchuan was wearing a dark uniform, standing in front of Zhou Chenghao with an expressionless face and a flat tone.
"I, I just found out."
Zhou Chenghao suddenly remembered that someone under him had indeed told him yesterday about Su Yanshi's sarcastic remarks about the Queen Mother.
But he thought at the time that the Queen Mother had already punished him, so there was no need to pay any more attention to it.
Judging from the expression of the person in front of me, is he not satisfied?
Zhou Chenghao did not dare to speculate casually, and asked in a serious tone: "I feel that the Su family's daughter is behaving improperly, and I don't know how to discipline her. General Qi, can you give me some advice?"
What a great move! Zhou Chenghao secretly applauded himself.
The last sentence was so well said that it allowed Qi Changchuan to speak out his inner thoughts without offending Master Su.
If Tutor Su becomes suspicious about this matter in the future, he can still say that it was Qi Changchuan's idea.
"I heard there is a Ci'an Temple near Cijing Temple. Daughter Su should go there to calm her mind."
Qi Changchuan lowered his dark eyes and his voice was as calm as water.
That’s the granddaughter of the Grand Tutor, the only living relative!!!
Zhou Chenghao subconsciously wanted to refute, but when he met Qi Changchuan's calm eyes, he was instantly unable to utter a word.
"Also, this is a document from the Western Regions. I request that you send troops."
Afterwards, Qi Changchuan handed over another letter.
send troops?
Attack the Western Regions?
Zhou Chenghao was a little confused.
If he remembered correctly, the Western Regions had been very well behaved recently. Not only had they sent princesses to congratulate the Queen Mother on her birth, they had also taken the initiative to pay tribute...wait!
Zhou Chenghao took a breath and looked at Qi Changchuan in horror.
He hoped... that he was wrong.
So I tentatively said, "Actually... the Queen Mother hasn't been too fond of honeydew melons lately. Anything she likes won't last long."
Qi Changchuan was slightly stunned.
There was a hint of inexplicable emotion in his calm eyes, "It won't last long..."
Qi Changchuan did not stay in the little emperor's study for too long.
He walked out in silence, but met an uninvited guest on the way out of the palace.
Zhou Youning was wearing a warm cloak and holding a hot hand warmer. He had been waiting for him for a long time and his cheeks were red from the cold.
Seeing Qi Changchuan appear, he let out a long sigh, straightened his back and walked towards him.
"your Highness."
Qi Changchuan took a step back and nodded calmly.
"General Qi, I have something to say to you. Is it convenient?"
Even though Qi Changchuan was imposing, Zhou Youning still held her chin up proudly, living up to the dignity of a princess.
Qi Changchuan looked at the girl in front of him.
Over the years, Zhou Youning has been with Shi Li. In name they are mother and daughter, but in reality they are like close friends.
In the past, she always complained that she had no friends...
Qi Changchuan was distracted for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he nodded slightly to Zhou Youning, "Okay."
In the emperor's study.
Extra quiet.
Zhou Chenghao almost broke the wolf hair brush in his hand.
Finally, he couldn't help himself, raised his head and lowered his voice to the eunuch who was serving him, "I have never heard of such an outrageous thing! For a mere melon, he is going to send troops to the Western Regions! Is he crazy?"
