Ying Zheng said no more and immediately dismissed the court.
"Your servants bid farewell to the Great King," the ministers shouted in unison.
「Within Zhangtai Palace」
"Bring me a pot of wine," Ying Zheng commanded after he sat down, a joyous smile on his face. "Today, I shall enjoy a modest drink."
"Great King, since you wish for a modest drink, shall this servant summon the concubines to accompany you?" Zhao Gao asked immediately with a respectful smile.
"My modest drink is not for pleasure," Ying Zheng shook his head.
"Given the good news the Great King received today, will you be visiting Mrs. Hu tonight? Perhaps it is a blessing from the heavens; today also happens to be the Eighteenth Prince's tenth birthday," Zhao Gao said respectfully.
"Today is Hai'er's birthday? I had actually forgotten," Ying Zheng said, as if just remembering.
