The daily life of the eldest son

Carefully sharing dinner with the emperor, and playing chess with the emperor for half the night, it was almost midnight when Ye Yi returned to his residence.

In the dead of night, Ye Yi thought he would never meet anyone, but he didn't want to see something huddled in front of his room from a distance, and after careful identification, he felt that it seemed to be a person.

Ye Yi pondered for a while, then took the lantern from the guard who escorted him back: "Thank you."

The guard took another look at Ye Yi's door. Although he couldn't see who was squatting at the door, it seemed that he wouldn't pose a threat to Ye Yi, not to mention that this is the emperor's temporary residence, even if a thief slipped away. Come in, you shouldn't sit there so blatantly.So the guard obeyed Ye Yi's wishes, handed the lantern to Ye Yi, and turned back.

Ye Yi carried the lantern and walked to the door, and when the candle light illuminated, the guess in his heart was verified.It was indeed Tang Xiao who was sitting at the door.

Seeing Tang Xiao sitting motionless with his knees hugged, Ye Yi shook his head and laughed, squatted down and gently pushed Tang Xiao: "A Xiao, don't sleep here."

He was clearly avoiding A Xiao, but this kid was still waiting here until midnight because of worry, he really felt that he was too sorry for A Xiao.

Tang Xiao woke up, turned his head and looked at Ye Yi with sleepy eyes: "Brother Yi, are you back?"

Looking up at the night after speaking, Tang Xiao frowned: "Why is it so late?"

Ye Yi smiled helplessly, and said: "I played chess with His Majesty for half the night, if I hadn't prepared the sacrificial ceremony early in the morning, I probably wouldn't be able to come back tonight."

Ye Yi was also very puzzled. When he came to Yanzhou, besides the crown prince and some princes, he was accompanied by many officials of the court. Among them, there were many learned and talented people, who obviously often accompanied the emperor to pass the time on weekdays. It's all here, why did the emperor suddenly want to get closer to him?Could it be that he managed to attract the emperor's attention just because he said something extra in front of the imperial court?But don't...

"Play chess?" Hearing Ye Yi's words, Tang Xiao was also puzzled, "Why does Your Majesty suddenly want Brother Yi to play chess?"

Ye Yi chuckled and said, "Holy will is unpredictable."

Tang Xiao thought for a moment, then asked worriedly: "Is it a good thing?"

Ye Yi shook his head, and said sadly: "I don't know. But luck and misfortune depend on each other, so it shouldn't be too bad luck."

Not too unlucky?That is to say, how much more unlucky it is?

Tang Xiao said seriously: "No matter what happens, I will be by Brother Yi's side, and I will definitely protect you."

Ye Yi's heart skipped a beat, facing Tang Xiao, his heart was hot, and his face was also hot.

Ye Yi suddenly reached out and ruffled Tang Xiao's hair, and said with a smile, "I know. It's getting late, go to sleep, aren't you going to attend the ceremony tomorrow?"

Tang Xiao allowed Ye Yi to ravage him without moving, and said: "Tomorrow, the guards of the feather forest will accompany you, and Yun wants me to help. He said that I will go with Brother Yi anyway, so I might as well help out with something."

"It's true," Ye Yi stopped, and looked at Tang Xiao with a smile, "After the gift, there is hunting. If you perform well, His Majesty may give you an official position, and then you don't have to worry about annoying Tang Xiao anymore. That's a lieutenant."

Even Tang Taiwei would not dare to assign the official position determined by the emperor's oral order. In that case, Ah Xiao's official career would probably be much smoother.

Tang Xiao nodded obediently, but it seemed that he was not very interested in a smooth official career.

"Brother Yi, let's go back to the room first, I will leave after watching Brother Yi enter the door."

Ye Yi had no choice but to follow Tang Xiao's words, opened the door first, and suddenly thought of something before entering the door, so he said to Tang Xiao: "Don't guard the door of my room at night, if I find out... let Mrs. Tang The lieutenant will send you to Heishui!"

After Ye Yidao broke his mind, Tang Xiao originally thought that as long as he didn't get discovered, Tang Xiao completely lost his mind when he heard the word "Black Water".

Tang Xiao felt that no matter how strict Tang Taiwei was, he still felt sorry for his grandson, so no matter how angry he was, he would not send them to the frontier to suffer. However, Tang Xiao thought that if Ye Yi said so, then he must have a way to persuade Tang Taiwei to do so. do it.

Heishui is far away from Chang'an, he will never go there!

After Ye Yi finished speaking, he closed the door and stayed quietly at the door for a while. After hearing Tang Xiao's footsteps walking away and the door closing next to him, Ye Yi walked into the room, and then he was worried. I went out to have a look, and after making sure that there was no one at the door, I went to sleep with peace of mind, but fell asleep as soon as I touched the pillow.

Before dawn, a maidservant knocked on the door, and Ye Yi asked the maidservant, only to find out that Tang Yun and Tang Xiao got up half an hour earlier than him, and they had already gone to do the final inspection before departure.

After Ye Yi washed up, he saw Zhao Kang again.

"Master Zhao." Ye Yi went out and bowed slightly to Zhao Kang.

In terms of rank, Ye Yi, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, is really one level lower than Zhao Kang, the Minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and it is also a courtesy to address him as "my lord".Although there were many people in the court who didn't take the eunuchs from the Ministry of Internal Affairs seriously, Ye Yi felt that everyone else didn't care, and only Zhao Kang, who had served the emperor for many years, should be treated with caution.Compared with officials like them who think they understand the Sacred Heart, Zhao Kang understands the Sacred Heart better.

"You are welcome, Shaoqing." Zhao Kang bowed his body with a kind smile on his face, "Your Majesty asks Ye Shaoqing to move forward and share breakfast."

We only spent half the night together yesterday, and the time we've been apart hasn't exceeded three hours, why do we need to see him again?

Ye Yi groaned in his heart, but he had to put on a flattered look on his face.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhao."

"This way, Ye Shaoqing, please." Zhao Kang turned around and led the way for Ye Yi, "The crown prince and all your highnesses are here this morning."

Ye Yi was taken aback for a moment, and then said gratefully: "Thank you, Mr. Zhao, for your suggestion."

After getting the information, it stands to reason that some rewards should be given, but Ye Yi hesitated for a while, but still didn't give it.

Zhao Kang's status is really special. If he is a prince or something, it is okay to give him a jade pendant or some gold and silver. But he is an official, and his rank is lower than Zhao Kang. Kang seemed a little self-righteous, and it would be even worse if he made Zhao Kang feel that he was underestimated, so it would be better not to give it.

So Ye Yi just cupped his hands, and said to Zhao Kang with more gratitude than before: "Master Zhao's kindness, I will never forget it."

Sure enough, after hearing Ye Yi's words, Zhao Kang not only didn't feel displeased, but smiled more kindly.

"Ye Shaoqing is being polite, but this old slave didn't do anything or say anything, it's Ye Shaoqing who is smart."

While speaking, he had already reached the place, Zhao Kang said again: "Please wait a moment, Ye Shaoqing, and wait for the old slave to go in and report."

"Master Zhao, please." Ye Yi smiled and watched Zhao Kang enter the door. After a while, he was led in by Zhao Kang who came back to look for him.

"Chen Dali Temple Shaoqing Ye Yi..."

"Come on, come on," Ye Yi heard the emperor's smiling voice before he knelt down, "Don't recite the book to me early in the morning."

Ye Yi's movements froze, he stood up straight again, and said respectfully, "Thank you for your kindness."
