Come on, Your Highness

The emperor was angry, and no one dared to touch the bad luck. These children breathed carefully, and they didn't even dare to move a step, for fear of annoying Emperor Tiangan to follow the board.

When Xiao Hong was still thinking about Yan Ziwen's previous words, Emperor Tiangan took a deep breath and waved his hands to his trembling sons and nephews, "Go back."

They saluted quickly, Xiao Hong hesitated and withdrew.

After walking out of the inner hall, they breathed heavily, Xiao Yi patted Xiao Hong on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Brother, when did you work so hard, you scared my brother to death."

Xiao Ming couldn't help but also glanced here.

I saw Xiao Hong stretched out his palm and spread it out, humming: "My hands are swollen from beatings, that damn old man, as long as I can get rid of him, let alone two nights without sleep, even ten nights I will fight " Then he yawned, "I'm sleepy, I can finally sleep peacefully in the future...Xi Chao!"

As soon as Xiao Hong saw He Xichao who was waiting at the door to read with him, he immediately abandoned these brothers who had just united with him, and flew over like bees seeing honey. The first thing he did was...to ask for credit...

"Xi Chao, did you see the way the old man was forked out, are you relieved?"

"Well, it's hard work, Your Highness." It's just that He Xichao was still a little puzzled, it was just a bet, why did he still have forty boards, what did this old man do to anger the emperor.

Xiao Hong didn't notice He Xichao's thoughts. He had just gone through a "battle" and his strength was exhausted. He touched his stomach, took He Xichao's hand and said, "Let's go, let's go back to Jing'an Palace, I'm going to starve to death."

After leaving the Qingzheng Hall for some distance, He Xichao wanted to ask, but Xiao Hong said, "Xichao, what does Hanwu Hanyan mean?"

He Xichao was taken aback, "What?"

"Old man Yan said in front of my father that I have the appearance of Han Wu and Han Yan, which made my father very angry, so I got forty boards." Xiao Hong rubbed his chin, "I wondered if it wasn't for old man Yan to be an old Hanlin , it is estimated that the following will be with Xu Zhi."

Han Wu Han Yan...

He Xichao frowned and said with a sneer, "That old man is really vicious."

Xiao Hong looked over and heard He Xichao explain, "Does Emperor Wu of the Han know?"

"Ah."

"Han Yan was his companion who grew up with him since he was a child. He has a deep relationship with Emperor Wu and is inseparable. It is said that they often sleep together. When Emperor Wu came to the throne, Han Yan's status rose and became the favorite of the emperor. However, because of this, he was arrogant. Forgetting the duty of a courtier, seeing the vassal king drive straight, rape the harem, frame Zhongliang, embezzle and accept bribes, and accuse a lot of crimes, it is a sycophant."

"That's it..." Xiao Hong nodded.

He Xichao asked: "Don't you think this is very similar to us? Companion reading, growing up together, deep feelings, inseparable, sleeping together, you still protect me so much, in the future if you... I am Han Yandi two?"

Xiao Hong immediately became unhappy when he heard this, "Nonsense, you are not arrogant, you are obviously arrogant. Those are things that have no shadow, why do you put them on your head?"

He Xi raised his eyebrows and did not deny it, but he still found it troublesome.

Regardless of whether the old man was intentional or unintentional, if Emperor Tiangan put it in his heart, his life would be difficult.

Xiao Hong stood up for him again and again. Although they were not looking for trouble, they were still too eye-catching.

He Xichao felt that it was necessary for him to change his character design. The Ruannuozi who had been hiding behind the eldest prince's back was obviously not suitable anymore, so... the schoolmaster-type companion who guides the unwilling first prince to be positive always pleases the emperor, right? ?

Is it true performance...

He walked forward while thinking, and found that Xiao Hong had disappeared while walking. Looking back, he stood in place and pulled down a long way.

"Why didn't you leave?" He Xichao wondered.

Xiao Hong raised his head and said to him: "Xi Chao, you go back first, I will go to the main hall of the Qing Dynasty."

"why?"

However, Xiao Hong didn't answer, but ran back quickly. The eunuch who followed behind looked at Xiao Hong's direction, then at He Xichao, and finally ran away together.

Xiao Hong walked and turned back, running still out of breath, Emperor Tiangan was a little strange, he was about to go to have lunch, so he sat back and asked: "What's going on?"

"Father, Hanwu Hanyan..." Xiao Hongda took a breath, "I know what it means."

"Oh? Let's hear it."

"Han Yan is the companion of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. He has deep feelings since childhood. Because Emperor Wu is close and doted on, he is proud of his favor. He has done a lot of things that are ungrateful and deceitful to the emperor. He is a courtier, isn't he?"

"Yes, who told you?"

"Xi Chao, I asked him."

Emperor Tiangan frowned slightly, "He knows a lot."

"Yes, he is younger than me, but he knows a lot more than me. Father, I have to tell you clearly, although Xi Chao grew up with me, he is not Han Yan, nor will he be Han Yan."

Emperor Tiangan asked, "How can you see it?"

Xiao Hong opened his eyes wide and said seriously: "Because he is not only my playmate, but also my little master!"

"Little Master?"

"Well, it's the master." There was some hesitation on Xiao Hong's face, and finally he decided to tell the truth, "You may not know that when you deposed the prince just now, your son blamed you and everyone, they all said It's my fault, but I didn't do it on purpose, I'm not convinced, why do you abolish me! Even my grandpa didn't speak for me, just let me keep my own place, and slowly please you. Only Xi Chao, he said it doesn't matter It doesn't matter whether it's the sacking of the horse or the miscarriage of Concubine Lin, it's not the real reason why you abolished me."

Emperor Tiangan was a little surprised, and saw Xiao Hong lowered his head, and said sullenly: "He said, the real reason is because I don't look like a prince at all. The way of governing the country, even the most basic homework is not learned well, it is because of good luck and good family background that he became the prince...it is normal to be deposed."

The astonishment showed from his heart to his face, Emperor Tiangan was very surprised, "Is this what He Xichao said?"

Xiao Hong nodded heavily, "Yes, although it doesn't sound good, I think it makes sense. I really didn't do a thing that should be done. I feel very uncomfortable when he said that, but I can understand your painstaking efforts."

Having said this, Xiao Hong showed a sad expression on his face.

Emperor Tiangan probably also recalled it, so he sighed lightly, and comforted him: "I made things difficult for you."

"Well, but I don't blame you at all now. Really, I understand that my father is doing it for my own good. It was just that I was a little depressed at that time, but he told me not to be discouraged, saying that if I give up on myself, I can only make others laugh. Let you down. He cheered me up, because not worthy now, does not mean not worthy in the future, hard work, there will always be rewards."

Emperor Tiangan nodded in agreement, and couldn't help but praise, "He is young, but his thoughts are thorough."

There was a firm light in Xiao Hong's eyes, "Father, I can remember that scene clearly for the rest of my life. After I returned to the palace, I was thinking, I must not let such a person go, no matter what price I pay, I have to let him go!" He was by my side, and now he is my companion."

"So he is the military adviser behind you?" Emperor Tiangan understood after thinking about Xiao Hong's changes, "No wonder, he has started to have a brain in doing things, and he knows how to please me."

This doesn't sound like comfort.

Xiao Hong secretly glanced at Emperor Tiangan, seeing that his expression was unclear, he said: "Xi Chao said, it's all about heart for heart, no father would hate his son, he asked me to think more from your point of view, If you understand each other, you will know that it is not easy for you. You are busy enough with the affairs of the country, and you have to worry about me. Father, in this palace, you are the only one who treats me sincerely. I was stupid before and didn't understand. Now I am trying to learn from you and follow your example!"

Having said that, Xiao Hong clenched his fists, looking very ambitious.

Emperor Tiangan's stern face broke his achievements in an instant, and he laughed and said: "When I was studying, I didn't sleep like you for three days. I worked very hard, and the masters in the study all praised me."

Xiao Hong's face flushed slightly, and he said in a low voice: "Son, aren't you working hard, it's just that the lectures in the study room are too boring, and it's easy to make people sleepy. Xi Chao also had nothing to do with me, so I had to finish my dinner and take out a Shichen lectures to his son, to be honest, it is much more interesting than old man Yan's."

"A seven-year-old child..."

Xiao Hong suddenly became unhappy, "What's wrong with the seven-year-old child, Father, don't look at his young age, he has plans in his heart, and it would be embarrassing to compare him with his son, who is three years older than him. When I saw him, he He is determined to be the number one scholar, and now he has memorized several books for the examination of scholars, and he will end up in the next year, maybe he is the youngest number one scholar in Daqi!"

"The ambition is quite high, but the ten-year cold window is just the beginning. There are many people with gray hair who are still suffering. Don't speak big words casually."

Xiao Hong and You Rongyan said, "Don't believe me, next time he makes a fuss, I'll show you, and you will know whether Xi Chao has talent. So, don't talk about Han Wu Han Yan, he can win a bright future by himself People said, relying on me, it will take years of the monkey to go away."

These words are quite reasonable, Emperor Tiangan looked at Xiao Hong's lost appearance, and couldn't help but sneered, "I said a lot of good things, just don't let me embarrass him."

Xiao Hongdao: "Yes, my son is afraid that you will misunderstand him. The best friend I found with great difficulty, it is too late to cherish, so naturally I cannot allow others to slander him."

Emperor Tiangan thought for a while and said: "Indeed, anyone who wants to touch him will be unlucky."

"It's not my son's fault." Xiao Hong argued, "We didn't provoke any of us, but those people didn't like us for some reason. Although I am young, it doesn't mean I can bully at will. Xi Chao is mine, let alone him. That's right, even if there is a mistake, I will punish it, what are they jumping out of!"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Emperor Tiangan to refute, Xiao Hong passed the exam, hugged his waist, buried him in his arms, rubbed his face and said: "Father, Xi Chao persuaded me to work hard and let me be a strong man." , Bravery, decisiveness, discernment, fearlessness... a bunch of men with good qualities, instead of narrowly focusing on a corner of the palace. I was born as a prince, I don't want to be mediocre, I want to be a useful person to Daqi , but these meaningless struggles and defenses have made us very tired...Father, my son is still young, please help me."

Sometimes a touch of fragility and helplessness after being strong can break a person's heart the most. Emperor Tiangan's heart was deeply touched by Xiao Hong's confession.

Emperor Tiangan suddenly discovered that, unconsciously, that stubborn eldest son had shed his cocoon and transformed. He was trying to grow up and walked forward bravely, but the road ahead was thorny, and he was walking too hard.

He put his hand on Xiao Hong's back, patted it lightly, and said, "Don't be afraid, Father will help you."

Xiao Hong came out of the main hall of the Qing Dynasty with a smile on his face, which didn't disappear until Jing'an Palace.

He Xichao asked him, but he shook his head secretly, "Don't ask, it's not a bad thing anyway, Xichao, don't worry, I'm in charge of everything!"

He Xi tilted her head with a puzzled expression on her face.

Xiao Hong turned around with a smile on his face, ready to go to riding and archery lessons.

He didn't want to tell He Xichao.

It's nice to be nice to a person without having to tell all the things you've paid.

And He Xichao looked at his back, couldn't help but curved his lips into a smile, and cursed, "Idiot..."

Don't tell me, can't he guess it?It was just the feeling of being carefully protected, He Xichao raised his hand and touched his heart, where it was full.

Exchange your sincerity for your sincerity, not just between father and son!

Yan Ziwen was dismissed from office and received forty sticks. For his age, it was no different from dying.

This is the second master in the upper study who fell into the hands of the eldest prince, and the reason was that he was furious at the crown as a companion.

Emperor Tiangan chose again and again on the list of the Hanlin Academy, but he still hesitated to choose someone. He had already gone blind twice, and if he chose a bad one, he would have to wonder if the Imperial Academy raised a bunch of waste.

In the end he dropped the errand to the cabinet.

"It requires not being afraid of the imperial power, being able to control the noble princes and sons, but also not being pedantic and boring and flexible, but also reading poetry and books and being funny in class... Isn't the emperor's request too high?"

When the cabinet ministers received the imperial edict, they immediately felt dizzy when they saw the requirements above.

"That's not the point, it's about satisfying the First Prince. If he's not satisfied, he's afraid he'll drive away the third one."

"This is too willful and reckless, the emperor will let him!"

"He was born in the middle palace, and the prince was deposed again. The emperor feels guilty in his heart. He is more tolerant and understandable."

"What about the candidates? Who will go? One is dead, and the other is still lying on the bed. Who dares?"

"When did lectures in the study room become a scourge, alas..."

At this time, a refined old man came in, and several ministers saluted one after another, "Thank you, Mr. Ge."

"What's the matter, everyone is frowning, but what happened again?" Xie Ge asked with a smile.

A minister showed him the imperial edict, "Ge Lao, why don't you choose someone?"

Ever since He Xichao clearly rejected his acceptance as an apprentice, Elder Xie Ge couldn't help but look at him differently, and even paid attention to the news of the First Prince.

He also knew about the uproar in the study room, so he said: "Lecture as long as you teach, why bother to hold on to the difference between monarch and minister, it's just a child."

"It's not that you don't know that the Hanlin Academy has the most veterans and scholars, but they just like to be stubborn. This eldest prince is also difficult to serve. I don't know who to choose. Look..."

Xie Ge said: "Leave it to the old man."

The author has something to say: Haha, face the wall if you are misled, it is very pure.

Emperor Tiangan: What can he do to protect me like this?
