At the beginning, the little koi carp was grabbed by a wolf and became the favorite of the beasts.

Zhao Yuqian was holding the puppet and walking out the door excitedly. Before he left the house, he was blocked by a goose-yellow figure.

"What's the matter with you?"

Seeing the person standing in front of him, he frowned slightly, with a trace of impatience in his tone.

"Brother, are you going out again? Can I...can I go with you?"

The girl's voice was clear and melodious. She looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, with bright eyes and white teeth, a smile on her face, and a pure and charming look.

When people look at her, they feel the urge to protect her.

"No, I have something important to do when I go out this time, so I can't take you with me." Zhao Yuqian refused without even thinking.

He was going to pick up his sister this time, so why did he bring other people with him?

And he only has one sister, Wan'er. No matter how close he is, he can't even think of sharing the brother-sister relationship between him and Wan'er.

The girl was obviously dissatisfied with his answer, pouting with a look of grievance on her face.

"Brother, I really want to go out and have a look, but dad is worried about me going out alone, so you can just take me with you once, okay?"

The girl's deer-like eyes held a hint of pleading, but others would have nodded in agreement.

It's a pity that what she begged was a guy who didn't know how to show mercy to women.

Hearing the girl's coquettish voice, Zhao Yuqian was a little irritated and wanted to get angry, but had to hold it in.

He suppressed his anger and said, "I told you, I have something important to do and I can't take you with me. Get out of the way!"

What a waste of time, his sister is still waiting for him.

"But, daddy..."

"Don't always use your second uncle to pressure me. My father can't control what I want to do."

Zhao Yuqian looked slightly angry and directly interrupted what she wanted to say without any mercy.

The girl's eyes were red, tears welling up in her eyes.

Before she could say anything else, Zhao Yuqian bypassed her, strode out of the house, and got into the carriage as if he was running away.

The girl put away her innocent look and watched him leave, with a calm face and no trace of anger.

Seeing that there was no one around, she said to herself: "System, are you sure that if you follow him this time, you will encounter a great opportunity?"

After a moment, the girl nodded seriously, as if she really heard someone speaking.

She walked out of the house and saw that Zhao Yuqian's carriage had gone away, so she waved for a carriage and followed quietly.

Zhao Yuqian, who was rushing ahead, didn't notice anyone following him at all.

He lay on the cushions on the carriage, crossed his legs, hummed a tune in his mouth, hugged the little stuffed tiger he had begged for, and imagined in his mind what it would be like to meet his sister.

As soon as the two of them left, Prime Minister Zhao returned to his house.

He strode into Zhao Yuqian's courtyard, looked at the boy expressionlessly and asked, "Where is the young master?"

The young man was originally afraid of the Prime Minister's majesty, and because he had something to hide, he inevitably felt guilty.

So he lowered his head and replied stuttering: "Young... the young master is out."

Prime Minister Zhao is known as the Old Fox. He can guess everyone's thoughts with just one expression. How could he not see that something was wrong with him?

"to be frank!"

His tone was obviously impatient.

Ever since the young lady disappeared, no one in the house was afraid of facing Prime Minister Zhao.

Apart from being able to restrain himself a little in front of the old lady, he would get angry at other times, scaring people who would take a detour when they saw him.

"I...I...Master, you'd better see for yourself."

The boy couldn't stand the pressure and his legs were shaking with fear. He took out the collected letter from his arms and bent down to offer it.

He quietly wiped his forehead and prayed secretly:

Master, I have tried my best. You should have left the city by now, right? The carriage must hurry up, don't be caught up...

Prime Minister Zhao frowned, took the letter and took a quick glance at it.

When his eyes fell on the word 'aunt', his excited hands kept shaking and his eyes widened unconsciously.

"Quick, tell me, is this coming from Cong'er?"

His sharp eyes were fixed on the boy, as if he was interrogating him.

"Yes, sir, the young master went out this time to pick up the young lady."

The boy didn't dare to hide it anymore and just revealed it.

"You bastard, how dare you hide this from me, and watch me catch up without breaking his legs!"

Prime Minister Zhao's beard stood up in anger, and he didn't know whether to be happy or angry for a moment.

But those eyes that had been silent for a long time became brighter.

He put away the letter and stood there wandering around, forgetting what to do next.

After regaining his composure, he said with great joy: "Hurry, prepare the carriage!"

"Yes, sir."

The boy was relieved and retreated as ordered.

At the same time, a servant ran over panting and said: "Master...Master, Eunuch Liu is here and said that His Majesty has summoned you to discuss something urgent..."

Prime Minister Zhao frowned. When he heard that it was Eunuch Liu who came in person, he knew that the matter was serious and he couldn't refuse.

After thinking about it again and again, I followed the servant to the front hall, cursing in my heart: What bastard is looking for trouble again, and I have to deal with it...

"Ah sneeze~"

Doctor Wang, who was far away in Houyan Village, sneezed several times in a row.

"Grandpa, are you okay?" Long Yue asked with concern.

Doctor Wang rubbed his nose and didn't take it seriously, "It's okay, maybe some old guy missed me."

……

Prime Minister Zhao reluctantly followed Eunuch Liu into the palace.

In the imperial study room.

Prime Minister Zhao asked absently: "Ah? Your Majesty, what did you say?"

The corners of the emperor's lips raised slightly, he glanced at him thoughtfully, and said, "You are not in your best condition today. Standing opposite me, your heart seems to be flying to the horizon."

Prime Minister Zhao has been anxious for a long time. He doesn't want to delay it for a moment. Nothing is as important as his daughter now.

"Your Majesty makes atonement. I really have important matters today, so I can't help your Majesty with your worries..."

He has no intention of doing anything now, he just wants to pick up his daughter.

Thinking that Zhao Yuqian was gone, Prime Minister Zhao became even more dissatisfied with his son.

If he had known about it a moment in advance, he could have avoided His Majesty's summons.

The emperor's current purpose is to hold back Prime Minister Zhao. How can he fulfill his wish at this time?

"What can be more important than my will? My dear, please don't lose your sense of proportion."

The emperor was sweating at this moment. He was so soft that he could only frighten this old fox hard.

Upon hearing the word "will", Prime Minister Zhao knew that he could no longer be vague.

Although the matter was not big, His Majesty ordered him to do it personally, so he had no choice but to do it.

"The minister obeys the order!"

Prime Minister Zhao gritted his teeth and agreed, but he was secretly doubting in his heart.

He always felt that His Majesty was deliberately holding him back to prevent him from leaving the capital.
