The fourth prince looked a little dazed, and felt that the boy in front of him was different from the Ah Yao who was next to the third child in his memory.

Because he often plays with the third prince, the fourth prince is quite familiar with the third brother's companions.

In the past, this boy named Xue Yao had a relatively naive personality, he obeyed the third prince's orders, frankly flattered and flattered him, and even took the lead in helping the third prince find trouble for his seventh brother.

Although he also flattered the third prince, the fourth prince looked down on Xue Yao's mindless and reckless tricks.

Originally, I thought that this little guy would be punished by Concubine Xi sooner or later, but I didn't expect that Xue Yao not only became the seventh prince's companion, but also went back to the palace hand in hand with the old seventh...

Lao Qi really bought his account.

The fourth prince had mixed feelings in his heart. He tried his best, but he couldn't curry favor with the third child without offending others.

On the contrary, it was this little companion who he had secretly ridiculed in the past, who actually got mixed up.

Could it be that this little friend is pretending to be so naive in the past?

Thinking about it this way, the fourth prince looked at Xue Yao almost in admiration.

Xue Yao was inexplicably stared at by him, so he smiled gently and said, "It's a hot day, why don't your highness come in to cool off?"

Only then did the fourth prince come back to his senses, and smiled and waved his hands: "Today, a batch of tributes came to the East Palace. My brothers all said that they were sweet snacks. I thought that the seventh child would like them, so I sent them along the way. I still have Anything else, let’s go first.”

The fourth prince turned around and went to Yigui's courtyard.

When Yigui saw her son, her erratic heart finally settled down, she hastily dismissed the maid, dragged the fourth prince to the inner hall, and quietly told her about the emperor's request for her to accompany him.

She didn't say that she was going to use the secret of Concubine Tong's inner ghost to please Concubine Xi, but the fourth prince immediately became suspicious after hearing it.

"Why are you looking for Concubine Xi?" He stared suspiciously at Mrs. Yi.

"Oh, I embroidered a small sachet these two days, and I plan to..."

The fourth prince interrupted her and mercilessly exposed: "You don't want to tell Concubine Xi about Concubine Tong's ghost, do you? I've flattered the third brother shamelessly for so many years, and finally made him treat me as his own." , if you want to take advantage of this loophole to please both sides, I will be defeated here."

Yigui blushed, lowered his head and said in a low voice: "After taking care of the third prince, what can I do? In the end, it's my fault for not favoring you, that's why I wronged you!"

"Hey!" The fourth prince frowned and waved his hands, turned around and sat down at the tea table, and said stiffly, "What grievances can I have?"

Yigui said with tears in his eyes: "Those slaves dare to say in my yard that you are the son of a lowly maidservant. Can I not know what life you have spent in the East Palace? You are not yet 13 years old, so you have to always think of being a substitute." Doing things to earn money and subsidizing my good-for-nothing mother, I feel so depressed every day... I wish I could just close my eyes and go, and stop holding you back..."

"Mother! Don't think about it!" The fourth prince jumped up, anxious and angry, and while wiping the tears of nobleman Yi, he coaxed: "Which dog slave said this? Why didn't you tell me? I will sue the emperor." There, his life was killed, and his whole family was dispatched!"

Yigui covered his eyes with a veil and hissed him to keep his voice down.

The fourth prince hugged Mrs. Yi and coaxed: "Don't be sad, my son will be a good person in the future. The hard times are just temporary. When I leave the palace and open the house, I can accumulate a family fortune with my own ability. You can enjoy it endlessly." Let the other concubines come to you to curry favor with you!"

"I believe in your ability, but no matter how big the foundation is, you have to have capital. I can't spread my hands and just watch you work outside." Yigui raised her head with firm eyes: "I am not reconciled, the emperor is busy with government affairs. , but forget me for a while, as long as there is a chance, it may not be impossible to turn around! Now the emperor can't wait to stay with Concubine Xi every day, as long as Concubine Xi is willing to support me, the emperor may come to see me! Even if I come once in two or three months, we Mother and child don't have to be made things difficult by slaves anymore, and your hard-earned money doesn't have to be fed to dogs!"

The fourth prince opened his mouth, but he couldn't bear to pour cold water on the nobleman.

Mrs. Yigui saw his thoughts, pointed to the sachet on his waist and said: "Today I met the emperor by chance, and the sachet fell on the ground in fright. The emperor stared at me for a long time, and bent over to help me pick up the sachet. , tied it up for me personally, asked me to raise my head, and solemnly asked me if I would like to accompany you!"

Thinking of what happened during the day, she trembled with excitement, and tremblingly said: "Your Majesty remembered me, remembered the promise he made to me that night, and he wanted to make up for neglecting me for more than ten years!"

She thought too much about the emperor's memory, and took the sweet words before going to bed seriously.

The emperor, who had skipped tickets for more than ten years, picked up a sachet for her, and she forgave the wrongdoer from the bottom of her heart, thinking that the sun was about to rise above her head again.

Although the fourth prince is much older than his peers, he still doesn't understand the relationship between men and women. Hearing what the nobleman said, he felt that his father's behavior was indeed warm, and he couldn't help but feel a little expectation in his heart, "Father wants Concubine Xi to tell you Decision? How did you tell me specifically?"

Yigui immediately imitated the emperor's appearance, and performed it in front of the fourth prince without saying a word.

The fourth prince rubbed his chin and pondered for a moment, then murmured: "It was already late at that time, why didn't the father stay in the Qingqiong Palace? Only the eunuchs were with him, and he didn't even call Chengyu. I guess the father may have suddenly Decided to go back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation."

"If there is something urgent suddenly, it is impossible for the father to stop to pick up things for you, and even chat with you..."

The fourth prince frowned more and more deeply, and turned to look at Mrs. Yigui: "I'm afraid it's not that simple. For some reason, the father might be disgusted with Concubine Xi, so he left the Qingqiong Palace suddenly, just in time to meet you. Let Maybe you told Concubine Xi this to anger Concubine Xi, so it can't be true."

After listening to his son's analysis, Mrs. Yigui felt like a bucket of cold water.

Thinking about it carefully, it's probably as my son expected.

Although she was a little disappointed, she was not discouraged, "Even if it's for the sake of concubine Xi, the emperor has already spoken, as long as I agree, he will definitely let me accompany you on the parade. We get along day and night along the way, and there is always a chance for the emperor to remember me." My goodness, I can't pass up this opportunity!"

The fourth prince thought about it for a long time, but felt that this was a good thing, so he happily reminded Mrs. Yi: "Concubine Xi may still be angry at the moment, you'd better come back tomorrow."

Hearing that his son also agreed, a big stone in Yigui's heart finally landed, and he said, "What if Concubine Xi blames me for fighting for favor? I think... I'd better tell her about the inner ghost and let her treat me as one of my own! As long as Accompanying the driver can make things happen, we don't need to curry favor with anyone in the future!"

It's time to check the princes' homework every month again.

The little princes brought their companions to study early in the morning, and waited for their father to check their homework in the side hall.

Xue Yao watched the fifth prince like a BB machine, staring at the seventh prince bombing all morning.

"Don't interrupt, you know?" The fifth prince was about to kneel down for the little fat boy: "If the third brother can't answer in a while, you must not answer for him, no matter how much the father asks him repeatedly, you are not allowed to answer." Answer for him, do you hear?"

The Seventh Prince raised his head and stared blankly at Fifth Brother.

On this day of every month, before leaving the Qingqiong Palace, Concubine Xi repeatedly told the Seventh Prince: "You must answer immediately when your father asks questions. Just answer, if you are not good, you will not have a snack before going to bed."

Immediately afterwards, he came to the side hall of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, but Fifth Brother tried his best not to answer his father's question.

The Seventh Prince really couldn't judge how these two people's requests should be carried out at the same time.

When the emperor was studying knowledge, the princes all stood in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Under normal circumstances, the third prince who is cramming will always have some troubles, and there will be books that cannot be recited.

The emperor would repeat the question several times, and strictly demanded that the third child answer immediately.

The third child was nervous and couldn't recite it.

The following continuous blank time can easily stimulate the Seventh Prince's repeater skills.

The seventh prince's way of thinking is this: the empress said that the father's question must be answered, and all the brothers answered the previous questions, only the third brother did not answer, the father asked again, and the third brother did not answer, the father asked again, The third brother just didn't answer.The empress said, the emperor's question must be answered, must be answered, must be...

Then, tragedy happened.

The three-year-old seventh prince fluently and perfectly answered the content that the third prince could not recite.

The words "shame to see people" were thrown on the third prince's face.

Every month, the father and the emperor will investigate, and the hatred between the brothers will multiply. If he doesn't bully the seventh child, who will he bully?

"Your Majesty asks you before you can answer." Xue Yao understood the seriousness of the matter and joined the action to save the fat cub: "When it is your turn to come out, you can speak freely about the emperor's questions, and you can't answer the questions at other times , Do you understand, Your Highness?"

"I'm so tired." The Seventh Prince felt that these people were strange, so he lowered his head and began to tinker with the small windmill.

Not long after, a maid's greeting came from outside the door.

When they heard that the third prince was coming, the little princes stood up straight in fright, and retreated slowly to the corner of the side hall.

The third prince walked into the side hall with his hands behind his back, turned his head and looked around, his eyes fell directly on the seventh prince, and sneered: "Lao Qi came quite early, have you prepared enough? Third brother will wait for your advice in a while .”

The fifth prince lowered his head and closed his eyes in despair.

The third prince came over aggressively, and the seventh prince immediately hid behind the sixth prince.

"What are you hiding? Don't you look proud in front of the father?" The third prince lifted the seventh prince out like a chicken, and said with a sneer, "Why don't your other brothers stop talking and let you show off alone? ,OK?"

"His other elder brothers won't be unable to recite the most basic Four Books and Five Classics, and it's not his turn to show off." Suddenly, a young man's clear and steady voice came from outside the hall.

Xue Yao looked up secretly, and saw a tall and straight boy walking into the palace door with long legs.

The young man wore the prince's casual clothes of vermilion and blue and black, with broad shoulders and a thin waist and a crown belt. Because of the light on his back, his outline was even more profound. handsome boy.

"Brother!" The sixth prince seemed to have found a savior, and ran forward bouncingly, hugging the boy's arm.

When the third prince heard the voice, he immediately restrained his hostility, turned his head and said hello: "Brother."

"How are you preparing for your homework?" The eldest prince was still a young man, but his attitude towards the third prince was that of a brother like a father.

The third prince laughed dryly: "That's it, big brother knows me..."

Before he finished speaking, the first prince raised his hand and slapped the third prince on the back of the head, and asked sharply, "What is it? Tell me about it?"

"I'm so ashamed for you!" The eldest prince Danfeng stared, then raised his hand to slap the third prince.

The third prince clutched his head and wanted to hide, but the eldest prince grabbed his arm with one hand, dragged him to him, and continued to slap his head!

After the first prince said two or three words, he slapped the back of the third prince's head, and began the dynamic education of the third brother in a very rhythmic manner: "You pay back! Sorry! Blame the old seven! Help me with my homework!"

The third prince hid everywhere with his head in his arms, and was about to be beaten to tears by his elder brother!

Xue Yao: "..."

As expected of the queen's son, it's different to be confident!

No wonder the eldest prince in the original novel can get into a fight with the emperor in order to insist on the reform. This character... awesome!
