Chapter 269 He didn’t mean it

Zhao Chen felt warm in his heart.

Sometimes, he really wanted to ask why the majestic Empress Chang Sun was so sincere to an ordinary commoner like herself.

But there are many words that he can’t say!

"Aunt, have you never sewed clothes for the prince?" Zhao Chen pondered for a moment and then asked a question.

The movements in Queen Changsun's hand paused, and she raised her head to look at Zhao Chen, "I sewed for him when I was a child, but after that, I never did it again."

"Why don't you sew with him? He is your biological son. It's only right that you treat him well." Zhao Chen looked at Empress Changsun and said slowly.

Zhao Chen even felt that there was something wrong with his brain. ??

People are kind to themselves and they still say this and that!

But these words had been hidden in his heart for a long time. Zhao Chen always felt awkward even if he didn't ask.

"Why, your aunt is good to you, and you're not happy yet!" Queen Changsun's eyes drifted in another direction.

She was afraid that she couldn't help but tell Zhao Chen her true relationship with him.

By now she was almost healed.

Although he discussed with the emperor, he would not tell Zhao Chen his true identity.

But Zhao Chen had already asked to this point, and she felt that she couldn't hold back her inner impulse.

"No, I just feel that something is not good. If the prince finds out, I should say that my aunt is partial!" Zhao Chen smiled.

"Your mother and I are good friends. You have suffered so much outside for so many years, so it is only right that I take care of you."

"The prince has been in the palace since he was a child, and there are many people to take care of him, so naturally I don't need to worry too much!" Empress Changsun said with a smile.

In the end, he still resisted his inner impulse and did not reveal his relationship with Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen nodded and didn't think too deeply.

Zhao Chen was already very satisfied with the way Empress Changsun treated him, and everything else was not that important.

"Auntie came here today, but what happened?" Zhao Chen poured a cup of hot tea for Empress Changsun and asked.

If nothing was wrong, Queen Changsun would not have waited here for so long if she had never met Zhao Chen.

If you want to sew clothes, you will also take them back to the palace.

Old Li Tou would not let Queen Changsun stay here late at night.

"Your Majesty asked me to tell you that this afternoon, some scholars sounded the drum of grievance, so you should prepare early!" Empress Changsun put down the needle and thread in her hand.

"Zhao Chen, something happened. The drum of injustice was sounded only once in the past eighteen years, during the reign of the late emperor!"

"If something happens to you, you should tell your aunt first, and she will find a solution for you!" Empress Changsun said to Zhao Chen again.

This drum of injustice has not been sounded for such a long time, but it happened again because of Zhao Chen.

Queen Changsun said she was not worried, but that was impossible!

"Did Lao Litou say anything else?" Zhao Chen asked.

"You kid, His Majesty said, the more ferocious the scholars make, the more opportunities they have. I don't know about the rest!" Empress Changsun rolled her eyes at Zhao Chen and slowly shook her head.

Every time Zhao Chen calls the emperor "Lao Li Tou", no matter how you say it, it's a bit insignificant.

I told Zhao Chen many times, but he just shouldn't.

Later, even the emperor himself became accustomed to this title.

"Well, I understand, just let them come here. A loser who can't even pass the autumn exam is worthy of showing his teeth in front of me?" Zhao Chen nodded, with a look of disdain on his face.

Combining the information that Li Jing told him before, Zhao Chen had already made a rough guess.

When the scholars beat the drum, they were simply saying that the test questions were too difficult and each of them could answer them.

The most likely thing is to let yourself answer those test questions!

Such little tricks are really meaningless.

Seeing that Zhao Chen was so confident, Queen Changsun felt a lot more relaxed.

But he warned, "You must be careful outside, those are cannibals, so nothing can happen to you."

"Don't worry, aunt, I'm still waiting for you to propose marriage to Ruoshuang for me!" Zhao Chen said with a smile.

"Well, by the way, Ruoshuang's mother didn't make things difficult for you today, right?" Empress Changsun suddenly started talking to Zhao Chen about family matters again.

…

"The head of the family asked me to wait for today and not let Zhao Chen make any mistakes in the court."

"He must be brought into disrepute."

"Understand?"

A private residence in Chang'an City, where some officials gathered.

The leader shouted with everyone.

"Can the head of the family tell me how to arrange the dead examiners?" a young official asked.

"Of course the head of the family has his own plans. Is this what you should ask?" The leading official glanced at the man and said unceremoniously.

"They all sacrificed their lives for the family, and now even His Majesty won't hold them accountable. Shouldn't the head of the family make arrangements for their families?" The young official refused to give up.

Many people nodded.

They all knew the reasons for the death of several examiners.

They received help from aristocratic families, were promoted and made rich, and dying for the aristocratic family was regarded as repaying their kindness.

But what will happen to the families of these dead officials?

Now even the emperor has issued an order saying that these people will not be held accountable and that they will help their families live.

But the head of the aristocratic family didn't even say a word.

If these people standing here suddenly died one day.

Who will help take care of their family members?

Death is not terrible, but dying with worry is really terrible!

Who knows, he died yesterday

Will the examiners who went there be the same ones tomorrow?

"I have said that these matters should be considered by the family heads themselves. Your current task is to defeat Zhao Chen."

"Only when he arrives will you have a good life!"

"Understand?"

The leading official shouted coldly again.

No one spoke this time, but many officials had a look of anger on their faces.

"Now, everyone is preparing to go to court. We must capture Zhao Chen today!" the leading official said coldly, striding out.

In the early morning of November, the cold wind blew, making people shiver.

…

"Zhao Chen, I'm going with you today. I really want to see what kind of losers they are. I just don't have the ability. I blame you for making the test questions too difficult."

"If all the scholars in the world are such trash, it will be a disaster for the Tang Dynasty."

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu came to the tavern early in the morning.

They were really anxious when they heard the news that their old man brought back late at night.

I finally waited until dark, so I hurried over in a hurry.

He was afraid that Zhao Chen would suffer a loss in the main hall later.

"Chu Mo, I met Luo Tong yesterday. General Li wanted me to save his wife!" Zhao Chen arranged his clothes and said to Cheng Chumo.

Cheng Chumo was stunned for a moment, shook his head, and said nothing.

"I heard from Lao Cheng that Luo Tong was going to kill him that day!" Qin Huaiyu's face darkened, and a complex look flashed in his eyes.

Obviously, he did not want to be an enemy of Luo Tong.

But for the sake of a woman, Luo Tong was willing to kill even Cheng Chumo, who grew up with him and had a friendship comparable to that of brothers.

Qin Huaiyu was very puzzled.

"He didn't mean it, he..." Cheng Chumo wanted to defend Luo Tong, but he felt Zhao Chen pat his shoulder heavily.
