Chapter 1532 The Regent King Dotes on Me Too Much What Should I Do 10

After Jinchen returned to the palace, he didn't see Jie Zhiwei for several days.

However, this time it was not that anyone was avoiding anyone, it was just that the war in the northwest was at its most critical moment, and the court in the imperial city was also worried about the war, so it was understandable that Xie Zhiwei was busy.

Jinchen knew that in their eyes, he was just a vase emperor who could not help in any way, so he simply ignored everything and planned in Bihua Palace for two nights behind closed doors. He also recruited two royal secret guards to act as his eyes in the palace.

As if to please him, Xie Zhiwei would send people to deliver gifts every day, wishing to present all the beautiful things to the little emperor.

At first Jinchen found it novel, but later on, only gifts came but no people, which made Jinchen imagine that she was a lonely concubine in the cold palace and Jie Zhiwei was the emperor.

On the third day, Xie Zhiwei suddenly sent Dequan to invite people.

Jinchen could only climb up from the comfortable dragon bed and walked into the imperial study yawning.

"I have been waiting for Your Majesty for a long time."

As soon as he stepped into the inner hall of the imperial study, he heard the beauty's light but slightly tired voice, and Jinchen stopped yawning immediately.

Just then, Xie Zhiwei, who was lazily lying on the chaise longue, looked up. Her slightly upturned phoenix eyes were extremely oppressive, and her pupils were deep and gloomy. When she saw Jinchen, she restrained herself a little, with a gentle emotion in her eyes, and slowly put down the memorial in her hand.

"I...just woke up." Jinchen told the truth.

Xie Zhiwei did not blame him for being sleepy, but just patted his side, motioning Jinchen to come over.

"Your Majesty, are you still angry about what happened that day?" Xie Zhiwei asked him first, his tone gentle.

"I'm not angry anymore."

Jinchen smiled at him.

"The battle in the northwest was a great victory. The commander, General Zhenbei, will lead the army back to the capital soon. According to the rules, he should be rewarded according to his merits."

Xie Zhiwei picked out a few memorials for Jinchen to read. When Jinchen took them, he met Xie Zhiwei's somewhat tired eyes. His dark pupils became lighter because of the bright candlelight in the hall, like high-quality amber that seemed to be able to absorb people's souls.

Xie Zhiwei did not notice Jinchen's gaze, and continued, "It's just that the General Zhenbei is already a first-rank general, the head of our military generals, and his relative is a wealthy royal businessman..."

He deliberately stopped there and turned to ask the little emperor who was obviously daydreaming, "Your Majesty, how do you think we should reward General Zhenbei?"

Jinchen blinked back to his senses, lowered his eyes and sorted out his thoughts.

General Zhenbei... He was a capable general of the protagonist in the late stage of the original plot.

The reason was simple: he was rewarded by the Regent after the Northwest War. Although his official position did not change, he had more real power, which gave him a sense of superiority above the imperial power. Little did he know that everything was a trap set by Jie Zhiwei.

In just half a year, the complacent General Zhenbei lost two of his close relatives one after another. The imperial merchants who secretly embezzled money had their entire families' property confiscated and were cruelly punished.

Thinking of this, Jin Chen silently read the request from the general in his hand for a promotion to General Zhenbei, put it down and said, "Reward according to merit, but secretly use the appropriate method to punish him?"

Jinchen emphasized the word "suitable".

It's not that he thought the imperial merchant shouldn't be punished. After all, embezzling royal gold and silver was a serious crime, but the timing was not right.

Xie Zhiwei chuckled, not missing the caution in Jinchen's eyes. He reached over and gently hooked a strand of hair that had fallen on his shoulder. "Your Majesty is in a hurry to come out. I will tie your hair for you again."

Are you jumping around so quickly?

Jinchen then said "oh" and turned around to let him tie his hair.

The comfort of fingers running through the hair was almost the same as massage. Jinchen couldn't help but yawn again. His mind gradually drifted away. Seeing that he was about to have another dream, he heard Jie Zhiwei continue the previous topic.

"General Zhenbei has a good wife and children. I think..." "No!" Jinchen quickly turned around and held down Jie Zhiwei's hand, trying to suppress the villain's thoughts. "Don't let the family suffer. Even if the young uncle wants to punish General Zhenbei, how can he do that to women and children?"

The smile on Xie Zhiwei's face froze slightly, his profile was hidden in the shadow of the dancing candlelight, and his expression was difficult to read.

"Your Majesty has indeed made a lot of progress."

At this critical moment, Jin Chen didn't care if his identity would be suspected, and continued: "For soldiers fighting outside, family members who are rarely seen for several years are both a weakness and a reverse scale. What's more, General Zhenbei's wife saved his life. Besides... if the secret is leaked at this time, the young emperor's uncle will inevitably arouse suspicion from the soldiers."

"Don't say it's suspicion, even if it's hatred, what's the harm." Xie Zhiwei inserted the last hairpin into Jinchen's hair, and his fingers gently stroked the serious face of the young man, "Your Majesty, as a king, don't be timid."

Jinchen: "..."

Is this a timid thing? People are going to rebel! When the time comes, they will lose their hands and feet!

The beautiful prince didn't understand my hint and was very tired.

Jin Chen took Jie Zhiwei's wrist, leaned over and whispered, "But little uncle, everything you did was for the people of our dynasty and for the stability of the country. You really don't deserve to be hated like this."

"We can send a close minister to secretly investigate the Zhenbei General's Mansion. Even if we find treason or other crimes, it won't be too late to deal with them."

Jinchen straightened up and almost pressed himself against Jie Zhiwei, expressing his endless intimacy.

"And...if something happens to you, who will protect me?"

When Xie Zhiwei was pulled by him and heard the last sentence, it was as if the ghost wandering in the world finally found its home at this moment.

"Okay." Xie Zhiwei hugged him gently, and the desire to test him today was suppressed. She could no longer do anything doubtful or have any doubts in her heart.

It doesn’t matter if it’s completely different from the past. If he says Jinchen is real, then it is real.

Jinchen came in a hurry and was wearing thin clothes. He was also deeply affected by the cold body caused by insufficient qi and blood. It was so comfortable for him to be hugged like this that he directly put his arms around Jie Zhiwei's waist.

"Little uncle has not had a good rest these days, you should get some sleep."

Xie Zhiwei's body stiffened for a moment, and then relaxed a little after a moment. A dark color that was so strong that it could not be dissolved flashed across his eyes, full of obsession.

"Your Majesty, will you accompany me to rest?" Xie Zhiwei asked.

"Okay."

Jinchen felt sleepy again. After drinking the tonic, he wanted to sleep every day. He buried his head in Jie Zhiwei's arms and closed his eyes.

After a long time, Xie Zhiwei slowly closed her eyes. No one cared about the memorial anymore. There were only two people hugging each other on the chaise longue.

They seemed to have finally found some kind of balance in their relationship, and they could remain intimate as long as they didn't bring up the monthly bloodletting.
