The Queen Doesn't Want to Die
Chapter 226
After Pei Zhang Xi expressed his opinion, everyone within the hall began to think about it. They began to whisper with their teammates and weigh up the advice Pei Zhang Xi had put forward to address the issues they were facing.
Emperor Pei An Long as the person in charge of deciding everything, he thought hard to find the most suitable solution at this time. He felt that he was lucky to have a competent son like Pei Zhang Xi and increasingly convinced himself that it was not wrong to have chosen him to be the crown prince who would inherit his throne.
With Pei Zhang Xi becoming Emperor in the future, he was confident the fate of the empire would get better and better again. He could have decided to go ahead with Pei Zhang Xi's plan, but as a good Emperor, he still had to ask his Ministers' opinions. If more than fifty percent of them agree, then the plan can be implemented immediately. However if they disagree, he will have a way to load them agree. After all he was an Emperor who was considered a messenger from the heavens to be obeyed unconditionally.Having such a privilege it would be a pity if it could not be used to show his power.
"The solution from His Highness the Crown Prince is undoubtedly the best solution. At the moment this solution is the most appropriate. I agree."
"Hamba agrees too."
"Hamba agreed." one by one, the emperor Pei An Long smiled with satisfaction. Pei Zhang Xi had proven his ability. Demonstrate ability without offending these ministers who are sometimes very chatty. The thought of facing them every day made him even more impatient to immediately retire and give the throne to Pei Zhang Xi so that he could go to the mountain with his concubines and enjoy a peaceful life there. But that won't happen anytime soon. Pei Zhang Xi maih is very newly appointed and still needs to be seduced to occupy the throne so that he can stand upright and strong there.
Immediately a team was formed with the direct lead of Pei Zhang Xi. After all he was the one who had the proposal and right now it was right for him to show his ability and worthiness as the chosen Crown Prince.

Emperor Pei An Long, along with the ministers in the hall, were busy discussing a solution to the mysterious disappearance of many people, Queen Zhu faced another problem that also made her feel angry every day.
Today the servant informed him that two Emperor concubines were fighting in their room. In fact a quarrel like this almost faithful day ensued and he would pretend not to know or would just send a servant to forgive his message and punish those involved in the dispute with some light punishment. But this time the quarrel was severe enough that Queen Zhu reluctantly came and examined her.
Upon arriving at the scene in a gazebo in the harem garden, the two concubines were separated and seated quietly in stone chairs there. Some things there are messy and have not been cleaned up. The two concubines who usually looked beautiful and graceful this time looked more like crazy people. With hair tangled like a chicken nest that had just been crushed, the beautiful clothes they used had some tears in some parts. What made him raise his eyebrows the most was when he saw the faces of the two concubines had red stripes on their faces severe scratches. Queen Zhu began to think that the wounds on their faces would leave scars and damage their beautiful appearance, most likely they would soon be repatriated to their original residence because they were unfit to serve the emperor with their broken faces.
Queen Zhu walked over quickly and sat down on the chair that had been prepared. Being in front of the two concubines who immediately stood up upon realizing that Queen Zhu had arrived. They seemed to have realized the mistake and lowered their heads. They regret having acted impulsively and impatiently. But regretting this moment is also useless. They knew full well the consequences if their faces were broken. So at the moment they are hoping that the wounds on their faces are just wounds on the surface that will disappear with treatment for some time.
"We salute the head of Her Majesty the Queen." Everyone stood up and bowed their bodies swiftly.
"Tell me what's going on here." Queen Zhu said lazily. Looking at the two concubines lazily. He wanted to return immediately and prepare himself to pamper his body. Today was the beginning of the month and only he was entitled to have the time of the Emperor on this night. Nothing can ruin the moment.
"Queen, yesterday Consort Yu suddenly came to my pavilion and provoked me on purpose. I tried to be patient with him. But today I really can't take it anymore. While I was painting the scenery, he came and destroyed the painting I just made. That's proof the queen. I'm not lying." One of them immediately reported excitedly. He pointed to a calligraphy painting that fell on the ground with an ink stain on it. It can be seen in fact the painting looks quite good if there are no black stains that are splashed in some parts. Very ruinous to the view.
"It's not like that Queen. I did come to his pavilion yesterday. But it was just an ordinary visit. I just want to find a friend. Not provoking as concubine Xiu said. And the painting was a lie, too. I just took a walk in the park and accidentally saw concubine Xiu was here and walked up to her to say hello. I also don't know how the painting fell once I arrived. Then on the grounds that I had ruined his painting, he started to go crazy and yell." Concubine Yu defended herself.
"It's the Queen's lie. Consort Xiu, tell me that you did deliberately throw away my painting!" Concubine Yu looked at Consort Xiu furiously.
"I didn't even touch her at all. How do I throw it away? Besides, there's no witness around who can prove that I'm the one who ruined your painting." Concubine Xiu folded her hands looking at Sleir Yu with a sneer.
Seeing the two women begin to argue again, Queen Zhu twitched her throbbing temples. He just wanted to calm down today was his little request so difficult to realize?
