The emperor closed his eyes, stood with his hands behind his back, and breathed heavily. Hearing Xiao Yuanyao's accusation, he couldn't help but frowned, and shouted: "Enough!"

This sound silenced the mother and daughter, who were still crying, and did not dare to cry anymore.

The emperor adjusted his anger and calmed down as much as possible before he opened his eyes and looked at the mother and daughter in front of him:

"I have found out the mastermind behind the birthday ceremony, but in order to protect this person, I only punished those people in the Zichen Palace. I thought that this matter would be passed without mentioning it. Jinger knows the general situation and has never been here I expressed more than half of my dissatisfaction in this matter, but today it seems that I was wrong."

Xiao Yuanjing naturally understood what the emperor meant, so he didn't speak again, but Yang Zhaoyi hurriedly argued: "Your Majesty, it's the Fourth Highness, it's him, it's him who feels wronged and wants to use Yao'er to express My dissatisfaction makes it difficult for Your Majesty."

The emperor frowned, and said sharply: "It is your Yao'er who instigated others to steal the prince's birthday gift! I let the people in the Zichen Palace bear the responsibility, and it was your Yao'er who saved it! I wronged Jing'er, If you don't give him justice, it's also for your Yao'er! Jing'er understands the general situation, knows how to advance and retreat, and never said a word of no. He swallowed the grievances I gave him! But what about your Yao'er! Using bitter tricks, repeating the old tricks, trying to frame Jinger!"

Yang Zhaoyi was frightened by the emperor's furious expression, even Xiao Yuanyao opened her mouth in astonishment, not daring to cry or argue.

The emperor said again: "Chen'er and him are not of the same mother, but he treats him as his own brother and loves him very much. Yuanchang lost his mother. He endured the pain himself and did not want to spoil everyone's happiness. During the diagnosis, he didn't even remember his injury, he yelled for pain, and yelled for grievance, my son, how could he do something like mutilating his siblings!"

Xiao Yuanjing looked up at the emperor, tears filled his eyes in response to the occasion, giving the emperor the illusion that he was moved.

The emperor was indeed stimulated by Xiao Yuanjing, who was in tears. Such complex eyes, such excited tears, made him, a father, really suffer a lot.

Xiao Yuanyao was wronged: "Father...Father Emperor..."

The emperor snorted coldly: "The Yang family doesn't distinguish between right and wrong, and has no way to teach daughters. She was demoted to Xiuyi, moved to Hualan Courtyard, and was fined half a year. Before that, he ordered others to tamper with my birthday ceremony, and he was punished for both crimes, moved to the Sanqing Temple in the palace, confinement for half a year, and all the courtesy was halved."

Both Xiao Yuanyao and Yang Zhaoyi looked at the emperor in disbelief. Just as they uttered the words of intercession, the emperor swaggered away, and Empress Xun also got up slowly, looked at Yang Zhaoyi's mother and daughter, and smiled coldly:

"It turns out that His Majesty wronged my Jing Er because of you."

Yang Zhaoyi hugged Xiao Yuanyao and sat paralyzed on the ground, she didn't care about the etiquette in the palace anymore, she didn't pay attention to what the queen said.

And Xiao Yuanjing and Xiao Yuanchen got up afterward, but when Xiao Yuanyao looked at Xiao Yuanjing, his eyes were full of resentment.Xiao Yuanjing smiled coldly, not paying attention to her at all.

He just turned around, and together with Xiao Yuanchen, accompanied by Empress Xun, left Yunruo Hall.

Xiao Yuanjing just gave Xiao Yuanyao a pole, but she didn't expect this girl to climb up the pole. Originally, she wanted to punish Xiao Yuanjing with a cruel trick, but she didn't expect that she would end up stealing a chicken without losing money.

How could Xiao Yuanjing not know if anyone passed by in the imperial garden at that time.

As the saying goes, the mantis catches the cicada and the oriole is behind, if Xiao Yuanyao had no intention of harming others, then Xiao Yuanjing's words were just to vent his anger, and he said it as soon as he said it.

But Xiao Yuanyao still wanted to take revenge, so how could she not fall into Xiao Yuanjing's trap.

So all of this is Xiao Yuanyao's own fault, and she can't blame others.

As soon as Xiao Yuanjing and the queen came out of the courtyard of Yunruo Palace, the sharp-eyed Xiao Yuanchen immediately saw Hou Chengyouzhi on the palace road. Xiao Yuanjing looked at the queen beside him, and said with a smile:

"Empress mother, I'm afraid that the emperor has something to teach. After admonishing Erchen and Chen'er, Erchen and Chen'er will go first."

Empress Xun looked at Cheng Youzhi who was not far away, and nodded slightly to agree. When she saw Xiao Yuanjing and Xiao Yuanchen going to Cheng Youzhi's side, the empress's original face darkened, replaced by sternness and dissatisfaction.

Looking back at the name of Yun Ruo Dian, she couldn't help but sneer, and then told the big maid beside her:

"After Yang Xiuyi moved to Hualan Courtyard, I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for her daily life. Ayue, go find two nimble girls and send them to Hualan Courtyard. They will serve Yang Xiuyi in the future. As for Princess Yuanyao in Sanqing Temple , She only thought about it after she made a mistake, and as the aunt, I have a duty to do so, so in the past six months, Princess Yuanyao has to find someone to teach her the rules again, and she must teach them well within half a year."

The maid named Ah Yue immediately nodded respectfully in response, and then went back to the Jiaofang Palace with Empress Xun.

Seeing Xiao Yuanjing coming, Cheng Youzhi had a smile on his face, and after saluting, he said: "I have been waiting for Your Highness for a long time, Your Majesty is waiting for your Highness in the Huixiang Pavilion ahead."

Xiao Yuanjing and his younger brother looked at each other, and then went to Huixiang Pavilion together with Chengyouzhi.

It seemed that the emperor had been sitting here since he came out of Yunruo Hall, and he seemed to be waiting for Xiao Yuanjing. When he saw Xiao Yuanjing, he also smiled and beckoned them to sit down in the pavilion.

Xiao Yuanjing carefully looked at the smiling face of the emperor, with a little melancholy hidden between his brows, he couldn't help but cut straight to the point and said, "Father still loves Yao'er, why should she be punished so severely?"

The smile on the emperor's face froze for a moment, and then he smiled wryly: "Jing'er doesn't blame the emperor?"

Xiao Yuanjing smiled and replied: "It's strange, so I went to my grandmother and asked for an errand to repair the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion, and my father agreed, right? Good thing, if it's weird, it's a little ignorant."

Xiao Yuanjing's humorous words made the emperor laugh instead of anger, and he just felt that his son was really interesting:

"Is it in your interest to give you an errand to repair the palace?"

Xiao Yuanjing: "No, since I went out of the palace with my brothers last time, I feel that the outside of the palace is very good, but now I'm not old enough to go out of the palace, so it's of course a good thing to have an errand to play outside the palace. , and by the way, I can buy some delicious food for my younger brother, which is very good."

The emperor looked at the two sons in front of him. After Xiao Yuanchen grew flesh, his face became rounder. He listened carefully at the moment, and he was extraordinarily naive. Thinking of Xiao Yuanjing's words, he couldn't help nodding: "Yes, the former Chen'er has She looks a bit like a concubine Xian, her face is round now, and she must have eaten a lot of good food."

Xiao Yuanchen didn't know if the emperor was praising him, but he didn't dare to laugh when he heard that he was plump. He kept a straight face, looked around with his eyeballs, and didn't know what to say.

Then the emperor said: "Yao'er's matter, the father knows that you have wronged, that's why I punished her so severely today. First, it is to restrain her temper. Second, she is still young, so she should read more books. Learn some etiquette, and it will be better in the future."

Xiao Yuan nodded: "I know that she is my younger sister after all, and if the punishment is too heavy, I will feel bad."

The emperor patted him on the shoulder in relief, and said after a long time: "I am very pleased to have Jing'er, the son of a brother and sister who loves me."

Xiao Yuanjing smiled a little shyly, rubbed his head and said: "It's all thanks to the queen mother. She often tells the ministers that no matter whether it is the elder brothers or the younger brothers, they are all the children of the emperor. The back of the hand is full of flesh and hurts, so I told my son not to blame my father, my father has my father's difficulties, and let my son love my brothers a lot, so don't let my father worry."

Hearing Xiao Yuanjing's gentle words, the emperor thought: "The queen really said that?"

Xiao Yuanjing nodded again and again: "The empress mother also said that she is the mother of a country, and she should be the mother of the world. She knows that the father's heart is for the imperial concubine, and the mother can understand it. She stabilizes the harem for the father and is a queen. Naturally. I can't always make my father happy, she has her responsibility, so the queen mother always educates her sons and ministers to care more about her father."

Every word of Xiao Yuanjing's words was imprinted in the emperor's heart. The empress in his memory had always been dignified and dignified, with a myriad of charms. The emperor knew that the empress could say these words, but only from Xiao Yuanjing It's a different feeling when I say it out of my mouth.

It seems that he doesn't know his queen well enough.

Back then when he was still the crown prince, the late emperor and the current queen mother arranged this marriage for him, and he knew she would be his wife.Back then, the eldest daughter of Duke Qing's mansion was well-known in the capital, so he naturally would not refuse, thinking that having such a wife to take care of palace affairs for him would naturally reassure him, so he gladly accepted.

But Miss Yu Er of Qi Guohou's Mansion is also well-known, not to mention her unparalleled appearance, and her piano skills are unmatched. After entering the East Palace, she was especially favored. The emperor who is still the prince naturally loves her even more.

Perhaps it was because of this that the emperor never knew that the empress was not only famous for her virtuous name, but also for her dancing posture. It was just because she wanted to enter the palace and become a princess, so she never skipped it again. forgotten.

Now Xiao Yuanjing mentioned that the emperor suddenly had an urge to get to know the empress again, but he couldn't expose his thoughts to his son, so he could only say:

"I understand the honorable name of the queen, and I understand it. No, February [-]th is your mother's birthday, and I am still thinking about what kind of congratulatory gift to give to your mother. She taught Jing Er That's great, I have to thank her."

After Xiao Yuanjing took a look at Xiao Yuanchen, he thought for a while before saying: "Actually, it doesn't matter what you give, what is important is the father's heart, and I think that the mother has the father in her heart, so what the father sends to the mother is definitely not important." like."

The emperor nodded, expressing that it was very reasonable, and then said: "How about this, Jinger, I think the cake you gave me at my birthday ceremony is not bad, why don't you teach me how to make this?"

Xiao Yuanjing was stunned for a moment: "Father... want to learn this?"

The emperor nodded solemnly: "That's right, Zhen, I want to learn this."

Xiao Yuanjing carefully calculated in his heart that it is just the beginning of October, and there are still four and a half months before the seventeenth of February. The emperor has a lot of affairs to deal with, so learning how to make cakes in advance is very difficult for a novice like him. It is indeed possible.

But in this way, it will take up Xiao Yuanjing's time when he goes out of the palace to meet Brother Guo?

Seeing Xiao Yuanjing thinking, the emperor couldn't help asking: "Jing'er thinks it's not right?"
