The Kingdom of Marriage: My Stunning Empress

Chapter 206: Erlang, let your sister-in-law give you a promotion

Before Han Zhuoren entered the bedroom, he heard hurried footsteps coming from inside.

Afterwards, Yang Paner, dressed in a dragon robe, came out trotting with a happy face.

She was filled with strong emotions and was about to throw herself at Han Zhuo, just like when she hugged this silly brother when she was a child.

But when he was almost at the door, he stopped abruptly, but the happy smile on his face as he looked at Han Zhuo did not change.

She pursed her moist lips and slowly said to Han Zhuo, "Erlang, you're back."

Han Zhuo stepped over the threshold, came in front of Yang Pan'er, and bowed slightly to her.

Then, he smiled and said, "I haven't been home these few days, and I'm sorry to have troubled my sister-in-law."

Yang Pan'er looked at Han Zhuo with a faint smile on her beautiful face.

Although there were countless words in my chest that I wanted to say, in the end, they could only turn into a faint smile.

At this time, a young eunuch trotted to the door of Yang Pan'er's bedroom.

He didn't dare to come in because there were also four guards guarding here.

He howled from a distance, his voice strained.

"Your Majesty, the guards at the gate are fighting with the young master of the Li family."

As soon as the young master of the Li family was mentioned, Yang Pan'er's son knew that he had been standing at the door last night. It can be said that Yang Pan'er had no good feelings towards this person, but rather some disgust.

Therefore, she, who always paid attention to etiquette, was too lazy to even meet him.

But I didn't expect that this person would stay outside the door and not leave.

When Yang Paner heard that the Imperial Guards and Li Yuhao had started fighting, her first reaction was to ask Han Zhuo out of habit.

"Erlang, I heard that Li Yuhao returned from Daqian Kingdom and learned a lot of martial arts. Don't let Niu Dageng and the others get hurt."

Han Zhuo grinned and said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. These guys are very cunning."

"The reason why I asked them to divide into three groups, guarding around my sister-in-law for twelve hours a day."

"I just know that although they are not the strongest, they are all smarter than each other."

"Don't worry, sister-in-law, the only one who will suffer is that pretty boy."

Sure enough, not long after, another young eunuch came running over in a hurry.

From a distance, he spoke again: "Your Majesty, something bad has happened. The young master of the Li family has been injured by the imperial guards."

"He was shot by an arrow and caught in a net by the guards."

The eunuchs at the door could not hear the voices of Han Zhuo and Yang Pan'er talking.

But what they saw was a tall and strong man wearing a black mask, standing face to face with the empress, and they seemed quite intimate.

However, the empress turned a blind eye to the injury of the immortal-like Young Master Li.

He just gave an order to carry Li Yuhao back home!

……

Chenshi.

A large group of officials came out of the council hall of the imperial palace in a sparse group.

Among them, except for a small number of young officials, they were in high spirits and walked with a brisk pace.

The rest of the older ones all had worried expressions on their faces.

Some of these people even sighed as they walked.

There were relatively younger officials walking in groups of three or five, looking at each other, hesitant to speak.

After a while, a brave man among them finally spoke up, "Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think we should do now?"

"Although everyone knows that a new emperor appoints new ministers, I didn't expect it to happen so soon."

"Besides, our Xuanyuan Nation is not very big, and official positions have always been so limited that there aren't even any extra positions."

"Now, Her Majesty has given such an important position as the Minister of Works to her beloved lover without hesitation."

"By the way, who is Han Erlang wearing the iron mask? Why have we never heard of him before?"

Someone said mysteriously, "Hey, let me tell you, this Han Erlang is very mysterious! It is said that he was brought into the palace by someone from the Murong family a few days ago, and since then, he has been staying in the emperor's bedroom and has never come out."

"Plus, His Majesty hasn't attended the morning court in the past few days. This shows that Han Erlang must have used all his skills to serve His Majesty comfortably on the dragon bed."

"Otherwise, why would he be promoted to Minister of Works just a few days after entering the palace? This is a very lucrative position."

Although these people were whispering to each other, they were all talking about information related to the harem.

However, no one knew that Li Yuhao was injured by arrows from the Imperial Guards early this morning.

This is not to say that the Li family concealed the news very carefully.

Instead, all the news in the palace is now released selectively.

Before these news leaked out from the harem, they had to be screened by Diao Meiniang.

Whenever Diao Meiniang wanted these officials to know something, she would release all kinds of gossip.

This is also the "imperial way" that Han Zhuo taught Yang Pan'er, the so-called "public opinion control."

When several young officials were talking to each other, suddenly one of them lowered his voice and spoke to everyone.

"Keep your voice down, keep your voice down, Lord Li is here."

Several people immediately shut up.

Finally, Li Rongdun was seen walking past many officials with his hands behind his back, his chin slightly raised, and a proud look on his face.

Behind him, there was a group of lackeys following quietly.

At this time, Li Rongdun did not know that his grandson Li Yuhao had been beaten.

Therefore, when he saw the empress hand over such an important position of Minister of Works to one of her lovers at the morning court today, he did not feel angry, but more happy.

Because he knew that since the empress was so fond of men, he would have to wait for his grandson to enter her harem and climb onto her dragon bed.

Then the Xuanyuan Kingdom would be under his control.

At that time, he will wipe out all hostile family forces, whether it is the Murong family or General Lin Wuji, they will all die!

By that time, he would monopolize the government, sideline the empress, and turn the entire Xuanyuan Kingdom into the back garden of the Daqian Kingdom.

This is to seek long-term development for the entire Li family.

However, Li Rongdun walked out of the palace slowly, taking long steps. When he was about to get on the carriage, the butler, who had been waiting for a long time, came up to him in a hurry.

When Li Rongdun saw the butler's expression, his heart skipped a beat and he thought to himself: Oh no, what happened again?

The butler rushed to Li Rongdun. Just as he was about to speak, Li Rongdun stretched out his hand to stop him and said.

"Don't speak yet. Let me ask you first, does this matter involve my grandson?"

The butler nodded repeatedly.

Li Rongdun asked again: "Is it Jun'er or Hao'er?"

The housekeeper said anxiously, "Master, it's Master Hao. Master Hao was injured by the Imperial Guards and was carried back!"

"What?" Li Rongdun jumped up the moment he heard this.

He rushed into the carriage and yelled at the driver: "Quick! Go back home!"
