After I became a passerby, I saved the villain's family

Emperor Chengren looked at He Zongsheng with a complicated expression.

When Mr. He returned to Kyoto from afar, the first thing he did was to see his daughter and grandson.

As Heng'er's father, he could actually be so cruel as not to visit him.

Mr. He was right. No matter how many mistakes Heng'er made, he was still his biological son.

Emperor Chengren felt as if a stone was pressing on his heart, making it heavy.

"Forget it, I will allow Mr. He to visit the clan residence to relieve his longing for his grandson."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!" He Zongsheng bowed down.

He knew that Emperor Chengren had never visited Xiao Yuheng in the clan house.

Lord, king, minister, father, father, son.

Emperor Chengren and the Third Prince have a close relationship not only as monarch and subject, but also as father and son.

He ignored his son, but an outsider was thinking about him. As a father, Emperor Chengren naturally felt guilty.

He guessed correctly.

There was a hint of sarcasm in He Zongsheng's eyes.

Your Majesty, you are still as kind-hearted and lenient as you were in the past.

East Palace.

"Really?"

Outside the hall, Birch and Kazuo were talking.

When Boqi heard Jiazuo say that He Zongsheng went to the clan house, he was shocked.

"Your Highness really guessed it right..."

This He Zongsheng is really capable.

I guess the third prince will be leaving the clan house soon.

"Then your highness is not in a hurry?"

Once the Third Prince regains favor, it will be a major hidden danger for Your Highness.

"Do you think Your Highness looks anxious?" Jiasaku said expressionlessly.

The two turned their heads and looked at the steady figure in the hall.

Xiao Yujing was standing by the window, writing a calligraphy.

A sparrow flew over, landed by the window, and chirped non-stop.

Xiao Yujing remained unmoved.

After writing each word stroke by stroke and putting down the pen, Xiao Yujing took the small box beside him and scattered the millet inside on the windowsill.

The sparrow couldn't wait to eat it.

After a while, a small group of sparrows flew over and gathered by the window to eat.

Xiao Yujing scattered another handful of millet with great interest.

Jia Zuo watched Xiao Yujing's actions quietly and said:

"Whether it's the Third Prince or He Zongsheng, to Your Highness, they are nothing more than wild birds."

When he was in high spirits, he would scatter a handful of food, causing them to scramble for it.

Since he had no interest in the matter, he just waved his hand and said no one could get any benefit from it.

Xiao Yujing watched for a while and found it very boring.

"Eunuch Wu, close the window."

Eunuch Wu hurried forward and closed the window.

The group of sparrows that were eating happily were disturbed. They didn't care about the food by the window and flew away in panic.

Zongren Mansion.

"Grandpa!"

Xiao Yuheng held He Zongsheng's hand and slowly knelt down.

"Please, grandfather, save your grandson..."

"Good boy, get up quickly." He Zongsheng helped him up.

Xiao Yuheng became increasingly thinner, his clothes became loose, his face was pale, and he looked very weak.

Looking at his haggard grandson, He Zongsheng felt very distressed.

"How come you are so thin..." He Zongsheng slowly stroked Xiao Yuheng's face, "How on earth did these dogs take care of you!"

Faced with He Zongsheng's rebuke, Eunuch Liu was so scared that he immediately knelt down.

"Master He, calm down."

Xiao Yuheng smiled slightly, "Grandfather, please don't blame others. It was my grandson who did it myself."

Hearing his words, He Zongsheng's eyes flashed with surprise, "You are..."

"Grandfather, do you feel sad to see your grandson like this?" Xiao Yuheng asked.

"Of course I feel very sad." He Zongsheng said.

Xiao Yuheng's smile deepened, "That's enough."

He Zongsheng understood, and while he felt distressed, he also felt a little relieved.

"Heng'er has grown up and knows how to plan for himself."

"But why do you torture yourself like this..."

Xiao Yuheng shook his head.

"Grandfather, I have no choice but to give it a try."

He no longer has many chips in his hand and no way out.

He Zongsheng's eyes were filled with emotion.

"Good boy, don't worry, grandpa will definitely take you out of the clan house."

With He Zongsheng's assurance, Xiao Yuheng felt much more at ease.

"Grandfather..." Xiao Yuheng held He Zongsheng's hands eagerly, "You are my only grandson..."

He Zongsheng held Xiao Yuheng tightly in return.

Following the palace maid out of the clan residence, He Zongsheng's face was filled with sorrow, as if he was very sad.

"Lord He, are you okay?" the palace servant asked with concern.

He Zongsheng wiped the tears from his eyes and said, "It's okay. I just feel very sorry for my grandson when I see him living in a place like this."

"It's been such a short time since I last saw him, how come he has become so thin..."

As he spoke, tears welled up in his eyes again.

The palace maids were also deeply moved when they saw this.

"Lord He misses his son very much. Your Majesty will surely be very touched when he knows this."

He Zongsheng nodded slightly.

After leaving the palace, He Zongsheng changed the sad look on his face and looked indifferent.

Zhou Bo, who was waiting outside the palace gate, hurried over to greet him.

"Master, how is His Highness?"

He Zongsheng recalled the appearance of Xiao Yuheng in the clan residence just now.

This third prince has really matured a lot.

Humph, I hope he can really make plans after he comes out, and not let down the He family's efforts...

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

Emperor Chengren thought about what the palace maid had just said.

"…The Third Prince has been in poor health recently and has not been able to eat much. When Lord He saw him today, he was very sad…"

Emperor Chengren frowned tightly.

"Luo Rong."

"I'm here." Eunuch Luo replied.

"Go to the clan house."

"Yes."

Emperor Chengren came to the clan house in the imperial sedan chair.

As soon as I entered Xiao Yuheng's room, a strong musty smell came.

Xiao Yuheng was lying on the edge of the bed, covered with a thin quilt.

Emperor Chengren was startled and walked over quickly.

"Heng'er!"

Xiao Yuheng looked up, as if he had just noticed the arrival of Emperor Chengren.

"Father..." He smiled slightly, his voice weak.

"Father is here, Father is here..."

Emperor Chengren held his shoulders and helped him up to the edge of the bed.

The shoulder in his hand was very thin, and the bones made Emperor Chengren's palm numb.

"Why is Father here... It's very dirty here, please don't dirty Father's clothes..."

Upon hearing this, a trace of pain flashed across Emperor Chengren's face.

Once upon a time, the kid who always liked to pester him was now so estranged from him...

"Cough cough..." Xiao Yuheng couldn't help coughing a few times, his face pale.

"Why didn't you call the imperial physician?" Emperor Chengren looked at him with concern.

Xiao Yuheng smiled weakly, "Father is usually busy, I don't want to disturb him with such a small matter..."

"This is ridiculous!" Emperor Chengren was a little angry, "How can you joke about your own body?!"

As he spoke, he looked at Eunuch Liu who was kneeling beside him.

"How do you usually take care of it?!"

Upon hearing this, Eunuch Liu lowered his head even lower.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. His Highness has been missing you and Concubine Jia too much and has not been able to eat all day. He also caught a cold two days ago. I wanted to find the imperial physician, but His Highness refused, saying that he did not want to worry Your Majesty..."

Emperor Chengren's eyes were fierce and he was about to get angry again.

Xiao Yuheng raised his hand and barely grabbed Emperor Chengren's sleeve.

"Father, please don't blame Eunuch Liu. It's my fault for making you worried."

Emperor Chengren withdrew his hand and looked at his overly weak son in front of him with reluctance.

"It's my father's fault that you have been wronged."

"Luo Rong, go and call the imperial physician."

"Yes." Eunuch Luo ran out hurriedly.

Xiao Yuheng lowered his head, and when he heard Emperor Chengren's words, he slowly curled up a sarcastic smile.
