Chapter 13 Kill the Emperor and Become the Queen Mother (13)

"Second brother?"

Xiao Jinnian's voice brought him back to his senses. He quickly calmed down and said in a gentle voice: "Yanzhi will try his best to satisfy the queen."

"You don't need to satisfy me." Nan Yue's words were as touching as ever.

She only took him with her temporarily for the sake of the little boy.

No matter how well he performs, she won't care much.

She patted Xiao Jinnian's little head gently and said, "Xiao Jinnian, come with me."

Xiao Jinnian looked at Xiao Yanzhi, opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, and followed Nan Yue to the desk...

Xiao Yanzhi lowered his eyes slightly, and his whole body became depressed...

half an hour.

He adjusted his mood, sat behind the desk, and listened to Nan Yue explaining the meaning of the article to Xiao Jinnian. He took notes from time to time, and was extremely focused.

Since he didn't make any noise, Nan Yue let him sit in.

but……

According to the boy's dependence on and trust in his royal brother, he will come with him tomorrow.

As it turned out, Nan Yue's prediction was correct.

Not only the next day, but also for a period of time afterwards, whenever Xiao Jinnian came to see her, there would always be a burden following behind him...

Although she allowed him to come along, Nan Yue basically ignored him...

Xiao Yanzhi himself was also very tactful and was quiet most of the time, as if he didn't exist.

On the contrary, it was Xiao Jinnian who would say a word or two to him from time to time and would glance at him when nothing happened.

Nan Yue discovered that whenever the kid encountered a question he couldn't answer, he would instinctively turn to Xiao Yanzhi for help...

And Xiao Yanzhi only gave the kid a look and he knew what to do.

Even if he didn't know the answer, he would calm down.

The little brat is so dependent on his second brother? Such trust cannot be cultivated easily. He must have helped him many times.

Tsk, things are a bit difficult.

Nan Yue doesn't want to raise two children.

After spending some time together, Xiao Jinnian has completely let down his guard towards Nan Yue. Three out of five sentences he speaks to her are about his mother, and he even has the intimacy with her like a child towards his mother. He is willing to tell her many things, both happy and sad, but does not want to mention them to his own mother, Concubine Zhao.

He just hasn't noticed it yet...

It’s autumn now and the weather is getting cooler…

The clothes Xiao Jinnian was wearing were still from last year, which were a bit too short for him this year. So a few days ago, Nan Yue asked the Clothing Bureau to make him two new sets of clothes.

Xiao Jinnian hadn't worn new clothes for a long time. When he changed and went to see Nan Yue, he still felt a little uncomfortable...

"Wow! It's true that clothes make the man. The fifth prince looks like a little boy in a New Year picture when he wears this dress. He is so handsome!"

As soon as Banxia saw Xiao Jinnian wearing new clothes, she couldn't help but praise him.

Xiao Jinnian's eyes lit up slightly, and he asked Nan Yue: "Is it really beautiful, mother?"

Nan Yue looked at it carefully and nodded, looking in a good mood, "It looks good."

Xiao Jin had been eating and sleeping well during this period. He had gained some weight and his complexion was no longer sallow. Even his dry hair had become much smoother and was tied up with a small golden crown. He wore indigo clothes with gold patterns.

After all, he is just a child, and he is doing well. The slight bit of hostility he showed when we first met soon disappeared, and his whole spirit and energy are different.

To be honest, although Xiao Chenfeng is disgusting, he still looks good. As his son, Xiao Jinnian naturally looks good too.

Now he looks like a little prince.

Xiao Jinnian's cheeks were slightly red. She was so happy that she couldn't help but jog over and hugged Nan Yue's legs. "Thank you, mother. You are so kind to me. I don't know how to repay you..."

Feeling the boy's admiration and dependence on her, Nan Yue curled her lips. Instead of pushing the boy away, she bent down and touched his head, "Just be obedient."

It's almost time.

Xiao Jinnian rubbed his little head in her palm and smiled a little silly, "Yes, I will listen to my mother."

Nan Yue called him, "Xiao Jinnian."

Xiao Jinnian let go of her hand and looked up at her, "What's the matter, mother?"

"Tomorrow, I will tell you something." Nan Yue looked at Xiao Yanzhi who was standing not far away, and said word by word: "Don't come."

If she doesn't explain clearly, this burden will follow her shamelessly again.

Xiao Yanzhi nodded obediently, "Well, I won't come tomorrow."

Nan Yue added: "Don't come here again."

Xiao Yanzhi was silent for a while, his eyes were a little dim, but he still said obediently: "Yanzhi, I understand."

After looking at his second brother and then at his mother, Xiao Jinnian seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"What's wrong?" Nan Yue asked him.

Xiao Jinnian shook his head. He wanted to speak up for his second brother, but he was afraid of upsetting his mother...

He had long discovered that his mother was only nice to him and was indifferent to other princes and princesses.

In the past, he envied Xiao Liangjun for being loved by his father, but now, he has a queen mother.

And it is a unique favor.

……

On the way back, Xiao Jinnian was very happy holding the new clothes. He shook his head and recited the poems he had learned today...

After reciting it once, he called Xiao Yanzhi who was standing beside him, "Second brother!"

Xiao Yanzhi didn't even look at him, "What's wrong?"

"Tell me, what exactly does mother want to tell me tomorrow?" Xiao Jinnian was extremely curious. He instinctively felt that it must be a very important event...

He felt that he would not be able to sleep tonight because of his curiosity.

The second brother is extremely intelligent, maybe he knows something...

Xiao Jinnian always trusted him and would ask him any questions he had, never hiding anything from him.

The two were walking to a secluded place, and there was no palace servant holding lamps nearby.

Xiao Yanzhi suddenly stopped and turned to look at him...

"You really want to know?"

Xiao Jinnian nodded vigorously and said, "Second brother, do you know something?"

"I know." Xiao Yanzhi clenched his hands hidden under his sleeves. He has always been careful and attentive, and he had noticed very early on that the Queen taught Xiao Jinnian more attentively than the Young Master.

Someone like the Queen would not be nice to someone for no reason.

He knew that she wanted to raise Xiao Jinnian under her name...

"Then Second Brother, tell me quickly!"

Xiao Yanzhi looked at Xiao Jinnian's excited expression, and his eyes gradually turned cold...

The moon was covered by dark clouds. In the darkness, Xiao Jinnian couldn't see his expression at all...

He heard his second brother say in a slightly cold voice: "The Queen wants to keep you in her name."

Xiao Jinnian was startled and didn't react for a moment, "What?"

Xiao Yanzhi smiled without emotion, and said slowly: "That is, you can be with the queen every day from now on, and she will raise you with all her heart and teach you..."

Very happy...

"Really?!" Xiao Jinnian was surprised and happy, and did not notice that something was wrong with his second brother at this moment.

The dark clouds gradually dispersed. Under the hazy moonlight, the second brother seemed to have thought of something and said with some difficulty: "But if you move to Fengyi Palace, what will Concubine Zhao do..."

"Ah?" Xiao Jinnian was surprised when he mentioned his mother. He said in a panic, "Should I move in with my mother? Will I never be able to go back?"
