Zhao Ying stood up suddenly and looked towards the courtyard with a surprised look on his face.

The First Emperor, dressed in ordinary clothes, appeared in the courtyard with his hands behind his back and a leisurely expression. He was followed by the general manager of Heibingtai, also in ordinary clothes, who looked like an old butler.

"Daughter-in-law Mi Ji respectfully welcomes Your Majesty——"

Seeing the arrival of the First Emperor, Mi Ji hurriedly put down her chopsticks, led her little sister, and hurriedly welcomed him out. Zhao Qi also suddenly woke up, hurriedly put down the chicken bones in his hands, and ran out to salute the First Emperor.

They almost lost count of how long it had been since the First Emperor came to their home.

There were not many visits in the past. Ever since my husband (Aweng) had political differences with the First Emperor, the First Emperor's footprints had completely disappeared from Prince Fusu's mansion.

Of course, what disappeared was the favor from the First Emperor.

Ever since Fusu angered the First Emperor at the beginning of the month and was completely expelled from Xianyang, Miji's family had nothing to think about.

Unexpectedly, the First Emperor would appear in their courtyard like this.

Miji was so excited that she burst into tears.

"In your own home, just call me Aweng——"

The First Emperor waved his hand casually, giving a hint of support, and motioned for Mi Ji to get up.

Then he turned to look at Zhao Ying, who had a surprised look on his face, and laughed and cursed angrily.

"You brat, what are you looking at? You have some delicious food and you don't know how to bring it to my eldest father. It also makes my eldest father come here - why don't you help me in..."

"I'm not afraid that you, the old man, are too busy today and don't have time -"

Zhao Ying happily stepped forward and helped the First Emperor's arm. Seeing this, Zhao Qi was hesitating whether to follow suit and help the First Emperor's other arm. The First Emperor had already waved his hand and gave a calm order.

"Let's all go in and talk -"

Zhao Ying skillfully pulled up a small chair and asked the First Emperor to sit on it. He then went to greet Hei. Just as Hei was about to refuse, Zhao Ying pulled and pushed him to the side of the First Emperor.

"If this kid asks you to sit down, just sit down..."

The First Emperor smiled and waved his hand, stopping Hei who was struggling to stand up and refuse.

Black then sat down with his butt half tilted.

"Then I would like to thank you for your majesty's grace and the young master's love..."

"How can you be so polite? You serve my eldest father wholeheartedly every day. I don't have a chance to thank you on weekdays. Now that you are here, we just want to have a drink together..."

As Zhao Ying said this, he arranged for the servants to serve two new dishes and chopsticks.

Zhao Ying was calm and composed, but Mi Ji was nervous to death.

She couldn't even think about why the First Emperor suddenly came to her home. You must know that today's family, whether it is the new tables and chairs or the dining together, is completely inconsistent with royal etiquette.

On weekdays, it doesn't matter if the family closes the door and eats whatever they want and uses it however they want, but if it falls into the eyes of the First Emperor, the problem will be big.

If the First Emperor really wanted to punish her, she would never be able to escape the charge of disrespect.

If this is the case, it will be like adding insult to injury to the current Fusu Mansion.

The First Emperor shook the small chair under him curiously, and then tentatively leaned his back on the backrest of the chair. This time he leaned back and tested out the beauty of this chair. His back, which had been aching for many days, A moment of relief.

His eyes couldn't help but light up.

Then, he raised his hand and slapped Zhao Ying on the back of the head.

"You brat, you don't even know how to send good things to your eldest father..."

Zhao Ying chuckled and shrank his head.

“I’ll send it to you later—”

He really prepared a set, but he had some preferences of the First Emperor in his heart. If the First Emperor was very resistant to these things, wouldn't it be self-defeating?

However, now it seems that this may no longer exist, and I can even have people dig out all the recliners.

"This was also ordered by you..."

The First Emperor knocked on the round table in front of him.

When the First Emperor asked this, Mi Ji was so nervous that she almost forgot to breathe.

"Yes, how is it? Doesn't it feel more lively than the old way of eating with one person and one table? I just thought that there are only a few people in the family, and it would be too deserted to eat separately. It's better to stay together as a family. When people get together, it’s lively and affectionate—it’s not much better than those cumbersome rules..."

"It has nothing to do with Ying'er. It's all my daughter-in-law's fault. It's all my fault for being confused..."

Next to her, listening to Zhao Ying still boasting about the benefits of the round table unconsciously, Mi Ji was so frightened that her body softened and she knelt down with a pop.

The First Emperor glanced at Mi Ji, who looked nervous, and waved his hand casually.

"I said, I just came here for a walk..."

Mi Ji then returned to her seat in shock. Although she could see that the First Emperor's attitude towards her son was a bit special, she had a long-standing respect for the First Emperor and she did not dare to relax at all.

"Father, Dad, do you also want to eat chicken butt..."

At this time, Mi Jicheng was so frightened that she didn't notice when her little daughter ran to the side of the First Emperor and held up a chicken butt without knowing her life or death. She was almost scared to death.

Then he saw the First Emperor suddenly smiling, bending down and holding the little girl on his lap.

"Thank you, Dad won't eat it, you can eat it yourself——"

As he said this, he stretched out his chopsticks and begged the little girl to pick up a piece of chicken. She was so happy that her nose almost blistered.

"Girl, don't rub yourself against the eldest father, come to grandma's side..."

Seeing this scene, Mi Ji secretly breathed a sigh of relief, confirmed the Emperor's goodwill, and relaxed her behavior slightly. He reached out his hand and hugged the little girl back from the First Emperor.

"I rarely see you delivering these dishes to me..."

While the First Emperor was enjoying the delicious food, he complained that Zhao Ying had no conscience. Zhao Ying didn't take it seriously and happily showed off proudly while serving food to the First Emperor.

"I also want to send it, but I can't. The main reason is that I don't know what to cook. I suddenly think of what to cook. I tell you, uncle, you will come here to eat every day from now on. The whole family is together and it is lively. ——No better than being alone in the palace..."

The First Emperor glanced at him angrily.

I really think I am the eldest father of an ordinary family, how can I have that time? But for a moment, I was quite moved by Zhao Ying's proposal.

He himself was startled by this sudden thought, and he quickly coughed and changed the subject.

"The imperial court today announced the order for defense changes in various places - Meng Tian will go to Lingnan to replace Ren Xiao, and Meng Tian's mission will be replaced by Wang Ben - all of this is your credit, but I have not mentioned your name to the outside world... …”

Having said this, the First Emperor calmly picked up a piece of kidney flower and put it in his mouth. While chewing it slowly, he squinted his eyes and paid attention to the subtle reaction on Zhao Ying's face.

When Zhao Ying heard this, he happily picked up a mushroom with chopsticks for the First Emperor.

"Thank you, Dad, for taking care of me——"

As soon as Zhao Ying said this, a happy smile couldn't help but appear on Hei's face.

"Your Majesty, what do you think? I will say that the young master is smart and can certainly understand your Majesty's good intentions..."
