That night, in the Zichen Palace, the Qingzhou Emperor put down the memorial in his hand, leaned on the throne and closed his eyes to rest.

After a while, he asked the internal officer beside him: "Tong Hai, what time is it?"

The old internal official standing at the side calmly replied softly, "Returning to Your Majesty, it's just past three o'clock. It's getting late, but Your Majesty is going to rest?"

"It's really getting late..." The emperor opened his eyes and saw that Tong Hai was calling someone to come forward with a sign. He lifted his right hand a little from the armrest, waved it twice, and then put it back.

Tong Hai didn't miss such a subtle movement of Emperor Qing, he turned slightly sideways, and signaled the internal officer to take down the sign.

When he thought that His Majesty was going back to the bedroom, the emperor sitting on the throne said again: "I haven't seen Lao Qi for a long time. Today, I saw how he grew up so fast."

Tong Hai knew that the emperor said that the seventh prince grew up fast, but he didn't just mean the change in size.

He noticed that Emperor Qing was in a good mood, so he jokingly said: "That's right, the old servant was also very shocked when he saw it today."

When Emperor Qing was still in the prince's mansion, Tong Hai followed him, and he was considered a very close confidant, so he listened to his deliberately exaggerated speech and said with a smile: "What else can scare you, an old bastard? In my opinion, you Going to pass an oral order once, it frightened the two brothers."

Otherwise, why did Lao Liu recite the articles learned in the Chongwen Museum in front of him so badly? It's a shame!

On the contrary, the seventh child, who had dropped a lot of schoolwork due to illness, answered the questions fluently, much better than his elder brother.

"Although Lao Qi was ill this time, he was still so outrageous. After a few words, he began to complain that it was boring to stay in the house. The imperial doctor told him to lie down and recuperate, as if he was embarrassing him. It really doesn't make me feel at ease..."

Tong Hai could tell that although His Majesty said that the Seventh Prince was not reassuring, his expression was somewhat joyful, and it seemed that his words were insincere.

Among the several princes, the eldest prince is honest and honest, not good at speaking; the second prince and the fifth prince have already reached the crown, and they have always been stable and decent in front of His Majesty, so they are naturally not as lively as the two younger princes; Perverse.

Only His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince is not only good-looking, but also intelligent, able to speak well, and can always please the elders.

Sure enough, the emperor said next: "Fortunately, he didn't waste where he should work hard. I'm very pleased. It's a pity... But it's good."

His Majesty didn't say "it's a pity" or "it's okay", Tong Hai just lowered his head - he didn't dare to take these words casually.

In fact, when Tong Hai arrived at the school grounds, it was earlier than when the sixth prince spoke ill of the seventh prince, so he happened to see a result.

Combined with the performance of the two princes in front of His Majesty today, the Seventh Prince has defeated the Sixth Prince in terms of civil and military, which surprised Tong Hai.

His Majesty said that His Majesty the Seventh Prince was not abandoned, but he was not wrong at all.

A prince who has not awakened can be so outstanding, compared to his brother who has awakened, it can be seen how much effort has been put in in private... After all, it is His Majesty's prince, even if he has no martial arts, he will not be inferior.

Especially later, when His Majesty mentioned that the Second Prince and the Fifth Prince were going to leave the palace to build a mansion, what the Seventh Prince said made Tong Hai admire even more.

He thought of the disappointment expression on His Majesty's face when the imperial doctor came to report that the Seventh Prince had just an ordinary evil wind entering his body, and the fever was not due to awakening.

Looking at the way His Majesty mentioned the Seventh Prince now, Tong Hai couldn't help laughing secretly.

——In Qingzhou, there has never been a shortage of royal families with great martial arts. Whether the Seventh Prince will be successful in the future cannot be concluded at this moment.

At this time, Qingdi's words interrupted Tong Hai Piaoyuan's thoughts.

"Show me, go to Wensi Hall."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The old internal official stepped forward respectfully and accompanied Emperor Qing to the outside of the hall.

……

When Emperor Qing arrived at Wensi Hall, Yu Zhaoyi hadn't rested yet, and led the palace people to greet His Majesty at the gate of the hall.

"I saw Lao Qi today, so I wanted to come and see you..."

Emperor Qing helped Yu Zhaoyi who came forward to salute, and asked her to hold his arm, and then they walked into the hall together: "The weather has been getting hotter recently, but you are thin, and you have never been able to stand the cold. They're more cautious."

"The concubine will pay attention, thank you Your Majesty for your concern."

Yu Zhaoyi knew what happened in the schoolyard, and also knew that Emperor Qing summoned the sixth prince and her son to Zichen Hall today, and when they came out, the seventh prince was rewarded with a rare horse.

She originally wanted to ask Ruosu to come over and ask about the situation, but who knew that Qi Jing won a horse, so he didn't stay in East No. [-] for a moment, and spent the entire evening training his new favorite in the school yard.

Later, if she wanted to call Ruosu over, she had to go through a palace gate. After all, it was a bit eye-catching at night, so Yu Zhaoyi planned to ask Ruosu for questioning the next day.

There were no extra actions in Wensi Hall, so she naturally didn't know what happened in Zichen Hall, and why Qi Jing was rewarded.

Although Yu Zhaoyi was puzzled, she was not in a panic.

——The two princes met His Majesty together, her son won the reward, but the sixth child had nothing... The one who should be anxious now should be the noble concubine of Lingqi Palace.

"Lao Qi got one of my horses, so I'm afraid he will send someone to tell you right away?"

Yu Zhaoyi listened to Emperor Qing's question, covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and smiled slightly: "He didn't just send someone to tell the concubine? I heard that when he paid his respects to the Empress Dowager, he even went to the Second Highness, but he didn't leave... The fact that His Majesty rewarded him with a horse is probably known to everyone in the palace by now."

Qi Jing came out of the Empress Dowager's Ci'an Palace on the front foot, and someone in the palace on the back foot said that His Royal Highness the Seventh Highness is rampant, and if he gets a horse, he will make it known to the world, and he likes to toss too much.

Yu Zhaoyi was afraid that His Majesty would dislike Qi Jing because of this, so she deliberately mentioned it in front of Emperor Qing.

Emperor Qing obviously knew about this, but now he sees Lao Qi pleasing to the eye, and doesn't think there is anything wrong with Qi Jing at all.

It's perfectly normal for children from ordinary families to show off happily when they get good things from their parents.

Others say that it's because they can't get it, so they are jealous of him.

"My horse is a good horse from Yongzhou. Today I tested their knowledge, and the old seven books are good. He complained to me that he was bored while recuperating. I saw that he was really pitiful, so I gave it to him."

Yu Zhaoyi knew of Qi Jing's unwillingness to be restrained, but now that he suddenly heard that he had complained directly in front of Emperor Qing, her smile froze for a moment.

Emperor Qing didn't notice this, and sat down when he walked into the hall. He took the tea handed over by Yu Zhaoyi, took a sip, and put the teacup aside.

He didn't come here for tea, he still had business to discuss with Yu Zhaoyi.

Emperor Qing looked at his beloved concubine, and said in an ordinary tone: "I told them today that the second child and the second child will leave the palace and build a mansion in five years, and I asked them what they think."

The eldest prince is old, and he had already left the palace to build a mansion.

Concubine De passed away early, both the Empress Dowager and His Majesty intended to keep the second prince in the palace for a longer period of time, so it was not until the fifth prince and the crown, whether the two princes should go out of the palace to build a mansion, was brought up again.

Yu Zhaoyi frowned slightly, as if she didn't want to understand what the relationship between the Second and Fifth Princes building a mansion had to do with the Sixth and Seventh Princes.

"Lao Qi said that he also wants to go out of the palace to build a mansion like his elder brothers, and he will establish it as soon as possible... I think his idea is also good."

Hearing that Qi Jing actually asked to leave the palace as soon as possible, and according to what His Majesty just said, he would probably agree, Yu Zhaoyi's heart tightened suddenly.

Tong Hai saw His Majesty talking to Yu Zhaoyi before, so he left the hall long ago and stood guard outside the door.

He stood on the porch, listening to the crickets in the grass in the yard, and looking at the cold moonlight falling on the ground.

For some reason, he had a feeling that although His Majesty came to see Zhaoyi, Zhaoyi might not feel happy tonight.
