Come on, Your Highness

He Xichao knew the result when Emperor Tiangan sent Xiao Hong back in person, but Xiao Hong's expression didn't seem to be in a good mood.

He didn't ask, just sat on the chair and played with Mo Naihe, waiting for Xiao Hong who was walking back and forth to speak, very patiently.

"Xi Chao, why do you say, you miss my mother very much, and you still care about me so much, if you don't dislike me, why do you just depose me, father, what is he thinking?"

"Want to know?"

"Ah."

"Then ask him." He Xichao said with a smile.

"..." Is he desperate?Xiao Hong looked like a ghost.

"I'm scared again, tsk tsk." He Xichao shook his head in disappointment.

"No." Xiao Hong scratched his head, sat next to He Xichao, and said sincerely, "This is different from just now. I mentioned the empress just now to let my father take pity on me. I didn't make him angry by being rude, but if I To question him face to face is to contradict and refuse to accept, and he is likely to be furious, which will be terrible."

"How terrible is it?" He Xichao asked back, "Is it possible to kill you, or to abolish your status as a prince and demote you to a commoner?"

"This...not so much, maybe I will give you a reward."

"Are you afraid of the board?"

Xiao Hong nodded, but under He Xichao's gaze he shook his head again, and said, "I'm not afraid of beating me, but I'm afraid that my father will hate me because of it. Xichao, you also said that in this palace, apart from my father, I have nothing to worry about." The person I rely on, if even my father refuses to look at me again, what will we do in the future?"

"Your Highness, no father would be disgusted by his son's one or two contradictory words. Besides, are you contradicting? You just want to find an answer. You just want to know where you are not doing well enough so that you can correct it in the future, so that the emperor will be furious. ?”

Xiao Hong thought for a while, then shook his head, "Probably not."

"It's not supposed to be, it's absolutely. You have to know that if we want to live well in the future, we must rely on the power of the emperor. But he has many sons, and how to become the most special and favorite one in his mind will take some effort. "

"Isn't that the same as fighting for favor in the harem?" Xiao Hong said.

He Xichao gave him a sideways look, "Of course, concubines fight for the love between men and women, and sons fight for the affection between father and son. It's a matter of course. Ten fingers have different lengths."

It made sense, Xiao Hong asked: "But what should I do to become the unique son in the eyes of my father?"

"Think about it, are you princes afraid of seeing the emperor like a mouse seeing a cat?"

Xiao Hong nodded.

He Xichao sighed: "Because you all respect him as an emperor first. People change people's hearts, you treat him as an emperor, he treats you as a subject, but if you treat him as a father, he treats you as a son. God There are so many courtiers here, all the same, nothing new, do you want to be a son or a courtier?"

"Naturally a son?"

"Son, when facing your father, you need to be less afraid and more intimacy. Show your innocent heart and say what you want."

"How...how did this come about?"

"Won't?"

Xiao Hong hurriedly shook his head, "I really don't know."

"Then listen to me and start from speaking your heart."

"So simple?"

He Xichao sneered and said, "Simple? Do you dare?"

Difficulty appeared in Xiao Hong's eyes. Except for those who absolutely trusted him, who would really open his heart for others to see?Especially that person also holds the power of life and death in the world.

"A father who truly loves his child will not refuse the opportunity to listen to his son. Besides, in the palace, everyone wears a mask. It is really difficult for the emperor to hear it. Only if you are willing to open your heart to him can he get close to you ,Yes or no?"

Xiao Hong was a little ready to move, so He Xichao continued to encourage, "His Royal Highness, you should try it first, just ask the emperor why he deposed you, if he is willing to tell you, don't we have a direction to work hard in the future? What kind of talent?" He is a qualified prince in the eyes of the emperor, you already knew it when others guessed, this is the unique tacit understanding between you father and son."

Xiao Hong clenched his fists tightly, with flames in his eyes.

The eunuch, the head of the punishment department, brought his subordinates to Jing'an Palace, and took away all the maids and eunuchs in Jing'an Palace.

Lvyun and the other personal maids and servants in charge didn't expect such a day, they were so frightened that they tugged at the corners of Xiao Hong's clothes and begged, and even moved out of Concubine Shu.

It's a pity that the eunuch who came this time was the leader of the punishment department, even Xiao Hong's words didn't work.

"I can't serve you well, the prince, if you want anything, take them away."

The sound of crying was instantly muffled, and he was dragged out.

At the same time, the head of the House of Internal Affairs brought a new batch of court ladies and eunuchs over, and handed over the roster to Xiao Hong, "His Royal Highness, if you are not satisfied, the miscellaneous family will replace it immediately."

These maids and eunuchs stood with low eyebrows, Xiao Hong looked back at He Xichao, who nodded with a smile.

"Eunuch Liu, I want to ask you a few people."

As soon as the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs left, Xiao Hong said to He Xichao: "Then I will go to thank you now."

He Xichao clenched his fists and cheered him up: "Cousin, come on, Xichao is optimistic about you, okay!"

Xiao Hong looked at the blown kiss he threw and the bright smile covering his face, couldn't help but blush a little, and muttered: "Cute is really cute, but it's out of place!"

Xiao Hong went away for a long time and finally came back with a dazed and happy expression.

He was smiling all the way back, lighter than ever.

He felt that he had discovered another side of Emperor Tiangan, who was no longer so unattainable and formidable.

And he himself was even more daring than he imagined, he dared to do anything, it was crazy.

"What did the emperor say?" He Xichao asked, "Tell you the answer?"

Xiao Hong shook his head, "No, but he was very surprised to hear me ask that. Really, I have never seen Father's expression like that. He told me not to think too much, study hard, and not disappoint his expectations of me. "

"What does this mean?"

Xiao Hongdao: "He didn't give up on me. Although he didn't say it, there was another reason that couldn't be said. Xi Chao, I have never seen my father speak to me so gently. In the words, I can feel that he is very guilty. .”

"It's a good sign."

"That's right, and he said it's good, he said I'm good!" Xiao Hong was always worried that Emperor Tiangan would scold him, but not only did he not, he even praised him!

God knows how long it has been since Emperor Tiangan said good words to him.

"You said you want to be more intimate. When I got excited, I hugged him boldly. Do you know how Father is?" Xiao Hong asked excitedly.

"Is your body stiff?"

"how do you know?"

He Xichao chuckled: "A man who has never experienced the intimacy of a child must be at a loss when he suddenly feels it."

"Yes, you were right. I hugged him desperately at that time. I thought that if I was scolded for being rude, I would let him go. Unexpectedly, my father smiled at me and even touched my head."

"better."

"The most important thing is that I heard him whisper, 'Hong'er, you need to grow up quickly...'"

When He Xichao heard this, he narrowed his eyes immediately, then smiled and said: "Sometimes it is really not a good thing to establish a prince too early, and it is easy to become a target."

Xiao Hong nodded fiercely. After today, he felt that he had touched He Xichao's thoughts.

He said with secret excitement: "Xi Chao, you keep getting me in touch with my father, not only wanting me to be his unique son, but also wanting to know what he cares and doesn't care about, the bottom line of tolerance."

He Xichao was slightly surprised, and exclaimed: "Yes, you are not too stupid. Although you are not the prince, you are also the eldest prince. In this palace, no one can surpass you except the emperor. As long as there is a good reason, it is not what you want to do." Just do whatever we want, we don’t have to feel aggrieved.”

Xiao Hong's eyes lit up, "As long as...don't offend Emperor Father."

"Yes, you have to know that a father's tolerance for his son is beyond your imagination. And the emperor seems to be a wise king for the time being, so no matter what you do, as long as you act upright and sit upright, you will be a bit out of line and rebellious. If he doesn't hit the south wall or look back, he won't be really angry."

At this moment, Xiao Hong's discouragement has completely disappeared, and he seems to have returned to his original aura of a majestic prince.

"Now everyone thinks that after this blow, I will be devastated and give up on myself. I don't even want a companion like He Mingrui, so I chose you willfully and arrogantly..." Seeing He Xi's eyes narrowed, Xiao Hong immediately lost his momentum, and quickly explained , "I'm not belittling you, you are so smart, much better than Ming Rui, but your identity is indeed inferior to him in the eyes of outsiders."

He Xichao snorted twice, "The desire to survive is quite strong."

Xiao Hong scratched his head, smiled, and continued, "I still remember the words you once wrote to me, asking me to pretend to be stupid. Since they think so, I'll just pretend to show them."

clap clap!

He Xichao clapped his hands twice, with difficulty in his eyes, "Finally hit the point. In fact, whether you read well or not, and whether your handwriting is beautiful or not are all things that are icing on the cake for the prince. What the emperor really appreciates or dislikes is doing things when they do things." The character that was highlighted at the time, whether it is courageous to take responsibility, or avoiding and retreating, whether it is insisting on oneself, or easily wavering, I believe this is also the reference point when choosing a crown prince."

Xiao Hong nodded thoughtfully.

He Xichao said: "So, as long as the emperor can tolerate it, why not let us be self-willed and let ourselves go? If you know that we have nothing, we have nothing to fear."

This Xiao Hong liked it, he opened his mouth, his eyes were shining brightly.

When Xiao Hong was still the prince, his temperament was straight and domineering.

As the proud son of heaven, if he really makes him timid in the future, it would be embarrassing for him to hold back.

Counseling?That's just facing the emperor!But now He Xichao let him slowly overcome this fear, and master the way of getting along with the emperor step by step, when the time comes...

"Being rebellious or self-defeating is a matter of opinion." He Xichao said with a smile.
