"Oh? Is there anything wrong?" Ji Xie's tone was obviously full of concern: "Don't they go to Shangshen room to get their meals?"

"I have never. Maybe I'm worried."

Ji Xie suddenly realized his heart, sighed lightly, waved his hand and said, "You go down first."

"promise!"

Seeing that she had gone far away, Ji Xie ordered the eunuch Jia: "You go find ten egg-laying hens and leave them to Mama Si. Tell her that if you have any needs in the future, you can find you directly."

The eunuch Jia Yingsheng was about to leave, but Ji Xie called him again: "Don't say it's my will, do you understand?"

"I understand." The eunuch pulled the corner of his lips and agreed happily.

The night is as dark as ink, the crescent moon is as hooks, and everything in the quiet palace is quiet. The sound of silk, bamboo, bells and drums have not been heard from the middle hall for many days, but the candles are still bright, illuminating the slightly lonely face under the lamp of King Ji Xie of Zhou Yi. His cold brows were raised high, and his eye sockets were deeply trapped in the shadow of the candle fire. His eyes were gloomy, but they were faint, as if he could do nothing.

"Beauty?" Ji Xie's lips were slightly sarcastic: "It's all brainless skins, and I don't want to see them."

"Then----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"What you want is as close as you are at the end of the world, and what you don't want is moving under your nose." Ji Xie said with a wry smile.

The eunuch Jia turned his eyes and immediately understood the meaning of King Zhou's words, but he could not make it clear, so he turned a corner and advised: "This is the palace of the king. From the queen to the laundry, all of them are the king's women. Whoever the king wants, just call her, what's the difficulty?"

Ji Xie narrowed his eyes and looked up at the roof of the carved railings and painted buildings, as if thinking about something. Finally, he slapped the table with a palm and stood up suddenly: "Let's go out and have some breath!"

The night wind in November was like a knife. Ji Xie walked east along the stone road and passed through a small wood. It was the terrace house where the eunuchs and maids of the Central Palace were staying. The eunuchs Jia held the palace lanterns in front of him, illuminating the road, knowing the direction of his advance, so he caused no hesitation.

"King, there is the courtyard of the Central Palace Order." The eunuch Jia stopped and pointed to a single courtyard that was closest to the outside.

This yard has only courtyard walls on both sides, and wooden fences on both sides of the courtyard gate, so the situation inside the courtyard can be seen at a glance. The two tile houses are dark, and the lights are turned off. However, there is an open fire burning in the yard, and the fire illuminates two familiar faces, one belongs to the central palace ruler Feng Yangsi, and the other is-----

Ji Xie tightened the bark of an old tree beside him with one hand, which was the queen! Her black hair, like a waterfall, only loosely tied a hairband behind her head, and a thick square platter wrapped around her forehead, looking like an ordinary mulberry picker in the suburbs. Her beautiful face was still white and shiny, and she looked like a daffodil blooming in a winter room, with a noble temperament, without being stained with dust.

They seemed to be fighting against the flame. Bai Yangsi was lying beside the brazier and kept blowing the flame with her mouth. When she stopped in her mouth, she advised: "Empress, go into the house, I'll do it!"

Fan Ji kept using the palm fan in his hand to stir up the fire: "No! The charcoal didn't burn it out at all, it was just like a branch. If he didn't burn it out outside, it would be so cold that night, how could we sleep?"

"That bitch who has made the heartbroken. Even if the Empress is banned, the king has never been abandoned! It would be fine if he doesn't deserve silver charcoal. He actually gave the most inferior charcoal to the Empress. You know, such a bad charcoal head is not even used by the lower-class palace servants. It's really bad! He's rotten!" Bai Yangsi nagged angrily.

Fan Ji didn't care and advised him softly: "Okay, wet nurse! Who in the world is not a person who worships high and low? Let them go!"

Ji Xie couldn't bear to see it anymore, so he turned around with speed so fast that even the eunuch Jia didn't have time to react. He ran for a while before he chased after him. Before he could breathe evenly, he heard King Yi of Zhou say, "Go back to the palace quickly and get a few kilograms of silver charcoal to send to the queen."

"Ah? Silver silk charcoal?" The eunuch Jia seemed to have not reacted.

"Yes, silver charcoal. You can't let her sleep at night!" Ji Xie shouted sternly.

Yi Ji was dressed up happily and came to the nave, but he didn't see the eunuch coming to greet him, but he could only hear a cry: "Kneel down!"

She was so scared that her whole body shivered. When she looked up, she saw King Yi of Zhou sitting angrily behind the desk, her eyes were like a torch, staring at her. Yi Ji quickly knelt down obediently and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, I don't know what rude I have. Please give me advice, so I can correct it."

Ji Xie glanced at her in disgust, really unwilling to talk to her: "Do you still need a reason to punish me if I want to punish me? What are you? You dare to ask me for reasons? Now it is midnight, so you can keep kneeling here until you can leave."

"No!" Although Yi Ji was dissatisfied, he could only grit his teeth and agree.

Ji Xie slowly stood up and walked into the inner room with the eunuch Jia. The voice gradually came: "I entrusted the affairs of the central palace to you. I thought you had been with me for a long time and should be more appropriate than others. Unexpectedly, you were so unbearable? From tomorrow, E Wei will take charge of the affairs of the central palace. You should reflect on it!"

Yi Ji was both ashamed and angry, and knelt down tremblingly and did not dare to get up. The doors and windows of the nave were wide open, and the cold wind was blowing. The two little eunuchs who were watching Shi Chen were looking at her curiously. Although they dared not discuss it, the inquiring eyes also made Yi Ji look embarrassed and angry. She did not dare to blame King Yi of Zhou, but only hated that she had a hard life. She had been living under others since she was born. When will this day be the end?

As the saying goes, "Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles." The news of the punishment of Yi Ji spread throughout the palace as soon as dawn.

"Why did the king suddenly punish Yi Ji? He still favored E Wei so much?" When Ji Jiang heard the news, he impatiently sent the capable Shu Diao to find out the reason.

But the people around King Yi of Zhou were tight-lipped, and Shu Diao only found some news from several beauties who had been having sex with him, such as Yiji and Hu Ji. He only knew that it seemed that Yiji had made mistakes in the affairs of the Central Palace, which might have caused some gossip and complaints, which caused the King of Zhou to be dissatisfied. But what was the matter? No one could say the truth.

Ji Jiang frowned and thought for a while, then asked again and again: "What are the things that have been busy with in the central palace recently?"

"There is nothing special. It's just that winter is coming. All the ladies and beauties have to buy winter clothes and shoes. There is nothing special. There are regular rules, just send it. Oh, by the way------" Shu Diao added another sentence: "There are also silver charcoal used for winter. Each beauties only get one pound per month. Many people complain about insufficient weight or not enough, and complain about it. Could it be------?" He also hesitated.

"By the way, this must be the case!" Ji Jiang put down the tea bowl in his hand and said thoughtfully: "If you don't worry about being weak, you will be uneven. It seems that this silver charcoal has caused a lot of storm over there! Could you do something?"

"What does Empress mean?" Shu Diao asked inquiringly.

"Isn't the queen the only one with black charcoal? Go and talk to Yiji, so--------" Ji Jiang said something to Shu Diao with his ears. Shu Diao nodded frequently when he heard it and praised: "Yes, this makes her mouth full of words, so I'll go to the old dog first."

Although the Zhou royal family had a large control area in the east, it was very difficult to get from the Central Plains to the Fenghao capitals where the royal family was located. The narrow and difficult ancient Wuhan Road is like a slender shoulder pole, carrying the Wei River Plain on one end and the eastern plain on the other. The transportation between the two is very inconvenient. Generally, when the weather is sunny, it will take at least one and a half months, not to mention rain and snow.

Therefore, there must be another deputy administrative center on the eastern plain to achieve control of the Zhou emperor over the eastern region, which is Luoyi. This city has the palace of the King of Zhou, and each deployment yamen is used to provide resting place for the princes in the eastern region. Of course, almost all the land nearby is enfeoffed by the princes.

Outside Luoyi City, eight camps of the Eighth Division of Chengzhou were connected to each other, stretching for several miles, and the sound of the movements was constantly magnificent.

Outside the gate of a camp to the east, a group of people were kneeling there to welcome the arrival of the king's envoy Zhao Gonghu. They were all naked, covered with hair and feet, and looked like they were carrying thorns and apologizing for guilt. The head was in his thirties, with a blue gem inlaid in the middle of his forehead, with a sword hanging high above his head, with a sparse jade face and a good appearance. He was Ji Yu, the Crown Prince of Wei, and this time the eighth division of Chengzhou defeated Qi.

After leaving Shangqiu, Songdu, it took nearly ten days to arrive at the plains of Luoyi. As soon as he lifted the curtain, Zhao Bohu was shocked.

Crown Prince Yu shouted loudly: "My minister Wei Yu has humiliated the king's order and was defeated by Qi's army. Please ask the king to punish the emperor to serve as a warning to others."

Zhao Bohu got out of the car and inadvertently glanced at Wei Duoyou behind the car. He was a little curious about what kind of emotion Duoyou had for his biological father (at least he believed so). Strangely, Duoyou had little concern in his eyes, but instead contemptted him more, and there seemed to be a hint of sympathy.

He shook his head, quickly helped Wei Yu up, and comforted him: "This time, the Song State suddenly turned against him, not only did not help the king's army fight, but instead cut off the food route, so that the entire army was defeated was not the prince's fault. The king already understood the reason and would not punish His Highness."

Wei Yu was already covered in tears and swallowed even more: "The king is so magnanimous, so I really feel ashamed!" He suddenly saw Wei Duoyou standing behind Zhao Bohu, and was also stunned. He wiped his tears and diligently welcomed the king's envoy into the tent.
