"Marty Sheng is indeed a character, but no matter how powerful he is, he is just a casual marquis after all, no longer an official in the court."

"That's right, but the emperor has always been acquainted with the old marquis."

The ministers below said verbally, as if they were full of contempt and contempt for Sheng Zhengye.

Not far away, Sheng Zhengye frowned slightly after hearing these words, and turned around and left.

Back at Sheng Mansion, Sheng Zhengye went straight into the courtyard where the old marquis lived.

The old marquis was practicing calligraphy in the yard.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, he raised his head and looked out the arch.

"Zhengye, you are back." The old marquis said.

"Father." Sheng Zhengye called out, "I have something I want to discuss with you."

"What's the matter? Tell me." The old marquis put down the pen and put down the wolf hair in his hand, raised his head and looked at Sheng Zhengye.

Sheng Zhengye walked to the table, poured a cup of tea, handed it to the old marquis, and then slowly spoke: "Father, the child is about to quit his position as prime minister."

The old marquis picked up the tea, took a sip, put down the teacup, looked up at Sheng Zhengye: "Oh? Why is this? I gave up on the first day?"

"Father, I think what the ministers said is not without reason. I really have no achievements. It is probably not enough to rely on a heart for the people." Sheng Zhengye said, sighing, "And..."

After hearing Sheng Zhengye's words, the old marquis pondered for a moment, and slowly spoke: "I know what you think, but you really should learn Zhiyao in this regard."

Sheng Zhengye was stunned when he heard the old Marquis' words: "Zhiyao?"

"Since Zhiyao returned to the capital, she has had so many rumors and even more people who looked down on her, she can prove to others that she has taken on the title of Princess, and what about you?"

The old marquis looked at Sheng Zhengye with disappointment in his eyes: "I chose not to do it with such a little setback. I think you have to consider whether you are suitable for this position."

After listening to the old Marquis’ words, Sheng Zhengye fell silent, and the depression and worries in his heart continued to rise.

He admitted that he was indeed not as brave as Zhiyao, but he also realized the difficulties of his daughter. Thinking of Zhiyao's stubborn little face, Sheng Zhengye's eyes became softer and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

How could he be braver than his daughter? How could he retreat?

"My father is right, the child will think it through."

Seeing this, the old marquis no longer forced him, after all, he still needed time to adapt.

"You go back and rest, don't think too much, facing difficulties is the backbone of my Sheng family."

After Sheng Zhengye left, the old marquis continued to lower his head to practice calligraphy.

For several days, Sheng Zhiyao was preparing for the Empress's birthday banquet with Feng Yuanchen, and finally prepared everything the day before the fifteenth day.

On this day, news came from the palace that the Empress set up a family dinner tonight and only invited everyone from Shenghou Mansion.

When Sheng Zhiyao and Feng Yuanchen heard the news, they were delighted.

This is better, so as not to cause another storm.

"Zhiyao, how are you preparing?" Feng Yuanchen asked.

Sheng Zhiyao said with a smile: "It's almost the same, it's only the last decoration."

Sheng Zhiyao said as she walked into the house, rummaged on the table, and finally decorated the cake.

Sheng Zhiyao looked at the exquisite cake on the table and nodded with satisfaction.

These days, she has been busy preparing birthday cakes, and dessert tables, and today she finally finished everything.

"Such a big cake should be enough for us to eat." Sheng Zhiyao said that, turning his head to Feng Yuanchen and said, "Yuanchen, we'd better go to Zihuang Palace early, so I can make some arrangements."

"Okay, I'm going to ask Bu Xing to get a carriage. If you clean up, we'll set off." Feng Yuanchen said that, turned around and left the room, and asked Bu Xing to prepare two carriages.

Bu Xing took the order to leave, Sheng Zhiyao went to the house to change clothes, while Meilan, Zhuju cleared the things to be taken away in the house, and the desserts were all put in a carriage.

Everything is ready

Appropriately, four maids helped Sheng Zhiyao get on the carriage.

Drive all the way to the palace, Sheng Zhiyao leaned against the back of the carriage, closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.

Since I left the palace with injuries last time, I haven't been to see the Queen for a long time. I don't know how the Queen is doing now.

As he thought about it, Sheng Zhiyao fell asleep. He stayed up late to make these things these days, but he really didn't sleep well.

The carriage staggered, and I don’t know how long it took, but the carriage stopped.

"Zhiyao,Zhiyao?"

Feng Yuanchen called out a few times.

Sheng Zhiyao slowly opened her eyes and rubbed her hazy sleepy eyes.

"Have you arrived?"

"Yeah, it's here." Feng Yuanchen nodded and helped Sheng Zhiyao get off the carriage.

Sheng Zhiyao looked around and found that they had arrived outside the palace. All the guards outside the palace had changed Feng Yuanchen's people. When the guards saw Sheng Zhiyao and Feng Yuanchen, they immediately saluted respectfully: "See King Chen and Princess Chen.

, The slave, who was ordered by the Queen, came to welcome the two to the palace and asked them to go to the Zihuang Palace with them."

"Okay." Sheng Zhiyao and Feng Yuanchen nodded.

"Please." The guards led the two of them to the palace.

"This is not the first time we have entered the palace in Yuanchen, why do we still have to take us away?" Sheng Zhiyao asked in confusion.

Feng Yuanchen couldn't help but chuckled after hearing Sheng Zhiyao's question: "I don't know what Grandma Huang sells in the gourd."

"What should we do now?" Sheng Zhiyao asked with big eyes blinking.

"I'll know later."

Sheng Zhiyao couldn't help but feel a little excited when she heard Feng Yuanchen's answer.

Soon, the guards led the two of them through the palace walls and finally came outside the Zihuang Hall. The guards stood outside the hall and said respectfully: "Please go in with Prince Chen and Princess."

"Okay." Feng Yuanchen nodded and helped Sheng Zhiyao into the hall.

In the hall, the queen sat upright, and Mama Rong stood next to her.

Seeing Feng Yuanchen and Sheng Zhiyao coming, the queen smiled and said, "You are finally here, come and sit down quickly."

Feng Yuanchen helped Sheng Zhiyao approach.

The queen sitting in the head saw Feng Yuanchen and showed a satisfied expression: "You two haven't entered the palace for a long time. How has Zhiyao's injuries healed?"

"Grandma Huang, Zhiyao is fine. How is your health recently?" Sheng Zhiyao said as she walked towards the queen, stretched out her hand and took the queen's pulse.

The queen looked at Sheng Zhiyao with a smile, allowing her to take her pulse without resisting or avoiding her.

Feng Yuanchen watched from the side without saying a word.

After a while, Sheng Zhiyao took back his hand.

"Well, Grandma Huang is in good health, and she can live for at least a few thousand years." Sheng Zhiyao said with a smile.

When Feng Yuanchen heard this, he curled up a curve at the corner of his mouth and laughed.

The queen looked at the two people in front of her, and the smile on her face became even stronger.

"Okay, okay, okay, it won't be necessary for thousands of years. By then, I will become an old monster. As long as I can live, I can see you two getting married and having children." She said repeatedly, but her eyes were full of
