Funing Hall

Zhao Cong had long forgotten that Zhao Shishi lost his temper with him that day.

Firstly, in his eyes, Zhao Shiyi was just an autistic kid, how could he be angry with Zhao Shishi?What's more, Zhao Shishi, who is not good at expressing feelings, rarely expressed his feelings once, and Zhao Cong was happy for him.Autism is not a disease that can't be cured completely, maybe one day in the future, Zhao Shiyi will be cured.Therefore, Zhao Cong thought that he should give this poor little friend more love and care, and hoped that one day Zhao Shiyi would also be active.

Secondly, he is really too busy recently, there is no room for these little things in his mind.

He didn't see Zhao Shishi's deep and heavy eyes, but said: "Come to see me, do you have something to do? Sit down."

Zhao Shishi didn't move, so Zhao Cong had no choice but to pull his sleeves towards him, and then Zhao Shishi sat down next to him.

Zhao Cong asked Cha Xi: "Is Mr. Xiao Lang unhappy?"

Cha Xi hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Mr. Xiao Lang has been painting in the back garden for the past few days, and he is very interested. Just now, Mr. Xiao Lang took a nap and wanted to come to Your Majesty immediately after waking up. I miss you, Your Majesty!" Cha Xi picked out the good things to say.

"That's good." Zhao Cong turned sideways and took a closer look at Zhao Shishi. Seeing that he was just as dumb as before, he felt relieved and said to Chao Rantao, "Go and see what there is to eat." , pick what Mr. Xiaolang likes and bring it."

"Yes." Rantao saluted, and exited the main hall, and Cha Xi also followed out.

There were only the two of them left in the hall, Zhao Cong felt that the high chair was uncomfortable, so he got up and said, "Go, go and lean on the couch." He got up and handed Zhao Shishi his hand.

This time, Zhao Shiyi obediently passed his hand to Zhao Cong, allowing Zhao Cong to pull him into the inner room.

Zhao Cong was about to sit down and let go of his hand, but Zhao Shishi still held his hand, and he looked at Zhao Shishi in surprise.

Zhao Shishi stood in front of the couch, staring at him with dull and heavy eyes.

After a while, Zhao Shixi wrote four words on the palm of his hand with his fingers: I apologize to you.

He wrote stroke by stroke very slowly, as if he was afraid that if he wrote too fast, Zhao Cong would not be able to understand.

Zhao Cong was stunned for a while, and then remembered what the four words Zhao Shishi meant.

Is Zhao Shishi apologizing to him for losing his temper that day?

He obviously forgot it early, and he didn't care at all. How could he care about this with a child?He wanted to laugh at first, but when he looked up and saw that Zhao Shishi's usual dull face was hiding some traces of seriousness, he finally held back and didn't laugh.On the contrary, he deliberately became serious and said softly: "I'm not angry with you."

Zhao Shishi lowered his head and stared at him sitting on the couch.

"Really." Zhao Cong stretched out his other hand that was not in the same place, and patted him on the shoulder, "Why would I care about this with a child like you? From now on, you don't have to be so careful in front of me."

Zhao Shishi glanced sideways at Zhao Cong's hand patting his shoulder, and thought of Zhao Cong patting Xie Wenrui just now.

He relaxed, but quickly tightened up again.It turned out that Zhao Cong was not only good to him, even to Xie Wenrui, Zhao Cong was still so friendly.

And in Zhao Cong's eyes, he is just a poor unwanted child.

He knew it was like this, but when this fact was confirmed again, when the inexplicable burden in his heart disappeared, he was a little unwilling.

Zhao Shiyi lowered his head and let go of Zhao Cong's hand.

Zhao Cong pretended that he was still worried about these things, and said, "Originally, I was looking for you today."

In fact, since we got along these days, when Zhao Cong spoke, Zhao Shiyi mostly listened attentively.But at this moment, Zhao Shishi still lowered his head and did not listen carefully to his speech.

Zhao Cong had no choice but to ask again: "Want to go out to play?" Children should like to go out to play, right?Seeing that Zhao Shishi was unhappy, he wanted to coax him, "In three days, I will leave the palace, and I happen to be going to the Prince Wei's mansion, so you go with me."

Zhao Shixi immediately raised his head and shook his head.

Zhao Cong was surprised: "Don't go? It's fun outside." It stands to reason that when Zhao Shishi was still in Wei Junwang's mansion, he should seldom go out of the mansion, so why didn't he have any interest in this matter.

Zhao Shishi shook his head again.

"Why? Isn't it fun outside?"

Zhao Shishi didn't want to go to Weijun Wangfu.What if Zhao Cong got interested, King Wei said something nice to Zhao Congde and left him in Prince Wei's mansion?He is still just a wimp now, unable to refuse and resist.

Seeing that Zhao Cong was determined to take him out, Zhao Shishi had no choice but to hold Zhao Cong's hand again and write down the words "Junwangfu".

Zhao Cong suddenly realized, and said distressedly: "Just go to the Prince's Mansion for a while, and leave in a while. I will take you to the street, and then I will take you to the Princess's Mansion to play. Okay? The Princess's Mansion is very beautiful."

"..." Zhao Shishi looked at him.

"It's true." Zhao Cong patted him on the head again, "I won't leave you behind."

Zhao Cong won't leave him?

These words made Zhao Shiyi a little ashamed, and the inexplicable burden in his heart arose again.

In the end it was Zhao Shiqi who had an impure mind, so he lowered his head again.

Zhao Cong originally wanted to joke with him again. He has been busy recently, so he really ignored Zhao Shishi and wanted to make up for it.

Rantao and Chaxi sent food in, and Rantao said: "Your Majesty, Qingming is asking to see you."

Zhao Cong suddenly suppressed his smile and nodded: "Call her in."

"Yes."

Qing Ming walked into the inner room in a dignified manner, saluted, and when she looked up, she saw Zhao Shishi sitting side by side with Zhao Cong, she was taken aback for a moment.This was the first time she had seen this rumored young man. For some reason, the Empress Dowager never called him to the Baoci Hall.

Logically speaking, for the behavior of the empress dowager, one has to meet the other side.But she is only a female official, and she is not as good as Aunt Wang, so she dares to say more.

Usually, I always heard that His Majesty dotes on this little Eleven Lord, but it is only an exaggeration, but now I look at it, is it true?To actually sit in the first seat with His Majesty is too flattering.

"Is it your empress who ordered you to come over and pass on a message?" Zhao Cong asked.

Qing Ming came back to her senses, narrowed her eyelids slightly and said: "Your Majesty knows that His Majesty is going out to Wei County Prince's Mansion, and she is worried that His Majesty's servants are not well prepared, so she asked the maid to come over and have a look."

Empress Dowager Sun knew that this could not be stopped, and she wanted to come over to show her presence again.

Zhao Cong was very cooperative and moved: "After all, it is the empress who is thoughtful. I do have a lot of things I don't quite understand-Rantao, you take Qingming to see what you have prepared. If there is anything wrong with it, I don't care. It’s good to change it immediately.”

Ran Tao came down and took Qing Ming out.

After they left, Zhao Cong made up his mind secretly, he hadn't gone to the Empress Dowager Sun's place to act for some days, so he had to go there too.After thinking about it, he turned to Zhao Shishi and said, "I still have some things to do today, so you can play by yourself first, okay?"

He wanted to make it up, but he couldn't make it up, Zhao Cong's tone was very soft.

Zhao Xiben lowered his head. Hearing these words, he couldn't think of anything other than feeling that Zhao Cong was a fool.

Zhao Cong had something to do, and without waiting for Zhao Shishi's response, Ling Chaxi took Zhao Shishi down.

After a while, Qingming finished "teaching", and he took Rantao, Fulu and Qingming to Baoci Hall.

As usual, Zhao Shishi was sitting on the veranda "in a daze", when Cha Xi saw His Majesty's group of people going away, he couldn't help sighing: "Young Lord, you don't know how difficult it is to survive in this palace, even if it is Your Majesty." After she finished speaking, she laughed again, "It's the servant girl who is talking too much, so how can Mr. Xiao Lang understand this, let's go back?"

Zhao Shiyi tilted his head against the pillars of the veranda, watching Zhao Cong's thin but conspicuous figure walking further and further away surrounded by a group of people.

He doesn't understand?

He can't understand better.

Not only in the palace, as long as it is survival, it is not easy.

It is precisely for the sake of survival, to make life easier, to live more happily, that he fights.

But he was suddenly curious, what would Zhao Cong look like when dealing with Queen Mother Sun?

So stupid, so soft-hearted, wouldn't he be played around by the Queen Mother?Although Empress Dowager Sun has done a lot of foolish things, she always makes wrong choices at critical moments, and she is very good at coaxing people.

He suddenly felt very sorry for Zhao Cong.

When Zhao Cong was in Baoci Hall, he naturally acted out another scene of deep love between mother and child.

The Empress Dowager Sun liked his tricks very much, and said a lot of bad things about the Duke of Wei, both openly and secretly. Zhao Cong pretended to be completely ignorant, and responded obediently: "Madam, Cong'er will go to the Prince Wei's mansion to stay for a while. Uncle Wang invited me I was also a little apprehensive about going to their mansion, I didn't know how to deal with it? Your empress also knows that this is the first time I have left the palace."

Empress Dowager Sun showed a satisfied smile: "He is the king of the county, and you are the emperor. You don't have to worry about this. It's a great blessing for their family that you go to their house. If you soften, they will feel uncomfortable."

Is this teaching him to be as arrogant as possible?To annoy Duke Wei?The words are tactful and the meaning is direct.

Zhao Cong smiled and nodded: "Cong'er knows."

In Wei Junwang's mansion, he will definitely convey the queen mother's meaning to Wei Junwang completely and perfectly.

After performing a play, it satisfied the Empress Dowager Sun's temporarily unbalanced mentality, and everyone was fine if you were good to me. Zhao Cong left the Baoci Hall after dinner.

As soon as Zhao Cong left, Empress Dowager Sun got up and went to the inner room.

Ever since the incident in Houyuan last time, Aunt Wang was very afraid of Zhao Cong. As long as Zhao Cong was around, she would not dare to show up.When Queen Sun returned to the inner room, Aunt Wang came to serve Queen Sun to change her clothes.

Qing Ming gently helped her remove her head and face, and said, "Madam, today I met the young gentleman from Wei Junwang's mansion in Funing Hall."

Empress Dowager Sun's eyes froze, and Aunt Wang looked at her worriedly. Empress Dowager Sun's eyes returned to normal, and she asked pointlessly, "How?"

"Your Majesty really dotes on that young gentleman very much, and he is sitting on the couch with His Majesty. The maidservant saw that young gentleman is really stupid, she didn't speak, but just lowered her head."

Empress Dowager Sun was silent for a while, and asked, "What does he look like?"

Qingming smiled: "Although he lowered his head, he can still see a little bit. He is indeed handsome."

Empress Dowager Sun twitched the corners of her mouth: "I'm free some other day, and I want to see him too."

Qing Ming didn't know the meaning of the words, so she didn't care, only Aunt Wang glanced at Queen Mother Sun again.

Zhao Cong returned from Baoci Hall, thinking of the awkward Zhao Shishi who came to see him at noon, finally smiled again.

No matter how introverted or autistic a child is, he will be able to get used to it after a long time.It is said that today's Zhao Shishi is more and more daring to express his ideas in front of him.He paused, turned a corner, and walked towards the side hall.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid Mr. Xiao Lang has already rested." Fu Lu reminded, and Ran Tao also nodded.

Every time he goes back to Baoci Hall to act, if it doesn't last for a few hours, Empress Dowager Sun is worried about letting him come back.At this moment, it was early for Zhao Shishi to go to bed.

"It's okay." Zhao Cong just went to have a look.

Zhao Shishi had indeed rested, and Ji Xiang kept vigil in the inner room. Seeing His Majesty approaching, he quickly got up and saluted silently.

Zhao Cong nodded approvingly, he was polite, he glanced at Fu Lu and asked Fu Lu to reward him.

Fulu made a bow and responded.

Zhao Cong stepped forward and opened the curtain himself.Zhao Shishi was sleeping on his side, Zhao Cong couldn't see his face, but seeing that he was sleeping soundly, he felt relieved, put down the curtain again, turned and left.
