Emperor Renzong of the Great Song Dynasty

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Dan looked at his father with shocked eyes.

This this……

How could father say that!

His eyes were instantly filled with two packs of tears, and with a slight blink, the tears fell, and he burst into tears.

Both Zhao Yiyi and Zhao Xu were dumbfounded.

They both looked at each other in blank dismay, panicked for a moment, not knowing what to do.

Kou Yaoniang glanced at them helplessly, and stepped forward to appease the crying Zhao Dan.

They still have to go boating on the river for a while and have fun with the people. It is too shameful for His Royal Highness to cry when he appears in front of the public for the first time in his life.

Under Kou Yaoniang's gentle pats and gentle whispers to comfort, Zhao Dan finally stopped crying, his eyes were red, and his whole face was full of tears.

The maid led him down to clean his face, and Zhao Yiyi looked at Kou Yaoniang cautiously: "Uh... he's not crying anymore, is he?"

He didn't have much experience in comforting crying children. Zhao Xu never liked to cry. It was what she liked to do to torment others so that they could not survive and cry without tears.

This is also the first time he made a child cry...Zhao Dan must have been made cry by him, right?

He was a little guilty.

Kou Yaoniang said: "I won't cry for the time being, just wait for a while and come back after washing my face. The officials..."

She hesitated to speak, and finally returned to a sigh.

Official, do you know how happy Dan'er was when he heard that you were going to take him on a dragon boat ride on the Dragon Boat Festival...

He racked his brains to come up with those words, and he memorized them three or four days in advance, hoping to leave a good impression on you.

She looked at Zhao Xu who made a face at Zhao Yiyi, who seemed to be sitting upright, but who was actually doing something with his hands hidden in his sleeves, and couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional.

How happy Xu'er is with the official's family every day... In fact, I have never taken care of her for a day, just like the official family has never taken care of Dan'er.

How can I make Dan'er as happy as Xu'er...

Zhao Dan came back after washing his face, his face was still slightly damp, his eyelids were slightly swollen, it could be seen that he had cried.But fortunately, the dragon boat dragged by manpower ran slowly, and there was still time for him to recover.

Seeing him coming back, Zhao Yiyi and Zhao Xu exchanged glances, and finally Zhao Xu jumped off his seat and ran to Zhao Dan: "Brother!"

Zhao Dan asked her with a hint of tears: "What are you doing!"

Zhao Xu finally took her hand out of her sleeve. It turned out that she had hidden a live cricket in her sleeve!The cricket was emerald green all over and had a slender figure. She held it lightly in her hand, it was really pretty.

She said, "This is for you!"

Zhao Yiyi supported his forehead and sighed.

It's really strange, how did she bring this thing on board?

I remember asking her personal maid to check carefully before leaving in the morning to make sure there were no suspicious items in her!

Ah, right.

That maid is "her personal maid", so naturally she is more willing to listen to her than mine...

As expected of 666's Goddess from Heaven, his ability to conquer people's hearts at a young age is really first-class.

Zhao Yiyi turned his head slightly, and whispered to Liu En, "You didn't remind me either!"

There was such a big cricket in her sleeve, he couldn't believe Liu En didn't notice it!

Liu En also replied in a low voice: "I was already on the boat when I found out. It's not good to find a cricket from the princess's sleeve in front of everyone."

So now she took the initiative to take out the crickets...

Zhao Yiyi looked in the direction of the two children, and saw that after the initial surprise, Zhao Dan was quickly fascinated by the cricket. Seeing that neither his father nor mother responded, he quickly took it in his hand.

"It's so pretty! Sister, is this a cricket? Where did it come from?"

Zhao Xu pulled him aside, and the two put their heads together, muttering in a low voice, "I caught it myself. Shhh, let's be careful, Dad doesn't like me playing crickets, let's not be seen by him..."

Zhao Yiyi, who was eavesdropping, withdrew his ears and saw that the two of them were getting along quite happily, so he smiled at Kou Yaoniang reassuringly: "Sure enough, the twins are different from others. Look, the two of them have so much fun."

Kou Yaoniang also looked away from there: "Xu'er is really likable."

What she said was meaningful, and Zhao Yiyi could only pretend that he didn't understand the meaning of her words.

Zhao Xu is a born sage king seedling, and if he wants to be emperor, what he needs most is the ability to make others obey the leader willingly, commonly known as charisma.

Zhao Xu really didn't lack for this thing. All the living people in Yuchen Palace obeyed her and allowed her to mess around and stir up wind and rain.Even Xueqiu'er liked to hang around her, and only when she chased her so hard that she couldn't run anymore would she come to him, the former master, to ask for shelter.

And Zhao Dan is just an ordinary four-year-old child. Although he has always been jealous of Zhao Xu's ability to dominate his father and is very hostile to her, but in a short while, he has been taken under Zhao Xu's banner. At this time, the two are planning to be together next time Where to catch crickets.

"Xu'er is innocent and cute, and naturally pleases people."

Zhao Yiyi made a haha: "Look, we're almost there."

At this time, the dragon boat has sailed from the canal to the north of the palace into an open water surface where thousands of sails are racing.The waterfronts on both sides were crowded with people, all dressed in the most decent clothes. Some wanted to see the boats decorated in different styles by the rich and powerful, but more people still wanted to see the emperor's dragon boat.

The world is richer than the royal family, and the emperor's dragon boat is of course many times more beautiful than other people's boats!

Zhao Yiyi could clearly hear the cheers from both sides of the strait in the cabin.

Although he, the emperor, wants to have fun with the people, there is no need to have fun together for too long. He can just go out and show his face when the atmosphere is the most enthusiastic and the emotions are the most high-spirited, and then he can drive the boat back and leave the lively water surface for tourists.

He estimated in his heart that from the time the dragon boat stopped on the water to now, the mood of the people has almost reached its peak.So he said to Zhao Xu who was still playing cricket with Zhao Dan: "Pack up and get ready to go out, do you still want to see your cousin?"

Cousin?

Kou Yaoniang glanced at him inexplicably.

As soon as he heard that he wanted to see his cousin, Zhao Xu immediately threw the cricket to Zhao Dan, ran to Zhao Yiyi by himself, and smiled with his face up: "Father, let's go out."

Zhao Yiyi looked at her face and smoothed out the broken hair at her temples - Zhao Xu was still a child, his hair was soft and broken, and it couldn't be fixed on her head at all, no matter how it was used by the maid who braided her braids. how much effort.Often after walking two steps, the scattered sideburns will fall down.

Although this is just a Dragon Boat Festival, just going out to be a mascot to have fun with the people, after all, this is the first time that Zhao Xu has officially appeared in front of people as the princess of Qin. image is seen.

Although the protagonist of this year's Dragon Boat Festival is destined not to be her, or even Zhao Yiyi, the emperor, but...

Zhao Dan followed behind Zhao Xu and looked up at Zhao Yiyi with bright eyes.

Zhao Yiyi also took a closer look at him, and found that it might be that Kou Yaoniang's court lady was very good at tying her hair. Zhao Dan's hair was neatly tied in braids, and not a single strand fell out.

He touched the top of Zhao Dan's head: "Very good."

Zhao Dan's face turned red instantly.

Zhao Yiyi whispered to Zhao Xu: "Your cousin is a privy envoy. Don't you know the rank of the privy envoy and the color of the clothes he wears? He is the youngest among those who wear that color. Just know."

Zhao Xu nodded vigorously.

Zhao Yiyi and Kou Yaoniang looked at each other and smiled, and left the boat house one after the other.

On the deck, all civil and military officials who are eligible to accompany have already stood up according to their ranks.Zhao Yiyi slowly walked to his place, and from the corner of his eye, he saw Zhao Xu scanning the courtiers without a trace.But because she is too short, she can't see other people's faces clearly for a while.

Zhao Yiyi smiled coldly, leaving her to worry alone.

Standing some distance away from the side of the ship, Zhao Yiyi raised his voice and looked at the thousands of cheering people on the shore staring at them, suddenly feeling like a superstar.

Under the dragon boat, the small boats of various families have already started racing. Looking at the colorfully decorated boats that glide like arrows, Zhao Yiyi can't help but have a new understanding of the creativity of the people of Bianliang.

Tsk, what does this family think, they draw dragons on the boat, why did you hang a pig's head on it...

At this moment, Zhao Xu finally recognized her cousin by virtue of his clothes and age, and was immediately shocked by his rare beauty.

She stared at Di Qing without hesitation, but Di Qing was restless because of something, but he didn't notice it.

After watching for a long time, Zhao Xu was finally willing to look away, moved closer to his father, and whispered, "Father, when I grow up, I want to marry my cousin."

The cousin is the son of the cousin, and the blue is better than the blue, so he must be prettier than the cousin...

The cousin is already so good-looking, so what does the cousin look like?

My cousin is a relative, so I can't put it in the yard to watch, so I can only marry him, so that I can see it every day.

After she finished saying this, Father, who usually answered all questions and responded to requests, didn't answer her.

She thought it was because the scene was too noisy and Dad didn't hear her, so she tugged on Dad's clothes quietly and said the words again.

Dad must have heard this time, but he still didn't answer her, and he didn't even look down at her.Not only that, but he put his hand on her head and gently pushed her back.

"Shh..."

She heard Dad say, "Don't look."

What not to look at?

In an instant, screams came from all directions, and she heard the screams were: "Killer! Killer!"

She didn't quite understand what killing was, so she poked her head out from behind Dad.I saw that the lively water just now was empty, and the boats quickly avoided the shore.

On the surface of the water, there was only a hint of intense red that gradually spread out.

Zhao Xu narrowed his eyes, which were stung by the scorching sun in May, and felt that the red was so thick that it seemed to flow down from her cousin's purple court clothes.
