At Xu time, the ceremony of chanting sutras and praying for the late queen ended. After that, Emperor Wu of Zhou personally lit the everlasting lantern for the late queen. Every year on the death anniversary of the late Queen, Emperor Wu of Zhou would light an ever-burning lantern for her.
After Emperor Wu of Zhou finished lighting the Changming Lantern, he did not stay in the Hulong Temple for long and returned to the palace with his concubines and princes.
Zhao Yao originally wanted to stay at Hulong Temple and continue to take care of the eighth prince, but Emperor Wu of Zhou rejected the offer.
Emperor Wu of Zhou didn't know Zhao Yao's little intentions. He wanted to stay in Hulong Temple because he didn't want to study.
At this moment, Zhao Yao was sitting in the carriage of Liang Zhaoyi and Yu Meiren, complaining that Emperor Wu of Zhou was unreasonable.
Liang Zhaoyi raised her hand and gently tapped Zhao Yao's little head, and said funnyly: "Okay, put away your little thoughts."
Poppy comforted Zhao Yao and said: "What's the benefit of staying in Hulong Temple? I can't eat meat as a vegetarian every day. There might be assassins. It's better to go back to the palace." After the death anniversary of the first queen, Zhao Yao and the others can eat meat.
"Second Concubine, didn't you eat the fast food from Hulong Temple at noon and evening?"
"Eat it."
“Aren’t the vegetarian meals and vegetables at Huryong Temple delicious?”
Poppy said honestly: "It's quite delicious."
"Isn't this right? I would rather eat vegetarian food and vegetables at Hulong Temple every day than go back to the palace to study." Zhao Yao scolded Emperor Zhou Wu in his heart again. His father did it on purpose. It was really too much. Infuriating.
"You." Liang Zhaoyi reached out and poked Zhao Yao's forehead.
"Yao Yao, you know that the emperor doesn't like the eighth prince, so why would you agree to stay with the eighth prince?" Meiren Yu gently comforted Zhao Yao, "Besides, isn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still in Hulong Temple? His Royal Highness is here. , the Eighth Prince will definitely be well taken care of, so don’t worry about the Eighth Prince."
Liang Zhaoyi exposed Zhao Yao's thoughts and said: "He doesn't want to accompany the eighth prince, he just doesn't want to study."
"Concubine, I also want to accompany my Eighth Brother, okay?" Zhao Yao said quibly, "With me accompanying my Eighth Brother, my Eighth Brother will definitely recover quickly."
Poppy smiled and said, "Yao Yao, you are not an imperial doctor."
"I can talk to Bago and make Bago happy. When Bago is in a good mood, his illness will heal faster." Zhao Yao felt that what he said made sense.
"That's quite right."
Liang Zhaoyi glanced sideways at Zhao Yao: "Just calm down and go to Wende Hall to study tomorrow morning."
When Zhao Yao heard this, he fell back and fell on the carriage with a look of despair on his face.
"I really envy the fourth brother and eighth brother, they don't have to study."
"Yao Yao, there's still some time before we get to the palace. The second concubine will hold you for a while." The fifth princess did not come to participate in the blessing because the princess was not qualified to participate.
"Okay." Zhao Yao was not polite, resting his head on Poppy's lap, closing his eyes and sleeping.
By the time he returned to the palace, it was already Haishi.
After sleeping in the car for a while, I felt less sleepy when I returned to the palace, especially after taking a shower.
Liang Zhaoyi was not sleepy, and the mother and son sat on the couch and chatted.
Zhao Yao told Liang Zhaoyi that the eighth prince was the mastermind behind the assassination of the prince. Liang Zhaoyi was shocked when she heard this. However, thinking about the Eighth Prince's temperament, he felt that he was not surprised.
"Concubine, what do you think Bage wants to do?"
Liang Zhaoyi couldn't guess either: "I don't know. However, he must have a big plan."
"Assassinating the prince's brother, what can Bago achieve?"
"No matter what he plans, it has nothing to do with us." Liang Zhaoyi said, "Don't even think about it."
"I'm worried that something will happen to Starling." Starling is very good to him, and he doesn't want anything to happen to Starling.
"With the eighth prince's intelligence and skills, he will never let anything happen to him before he reaches adulthood and is crowned king." Liang Zhaoyi said no more about this matter and changed the subject to talk about other things, "Your father has already sent someone to help your second uncle to get it done. Things about the fields.”
"So fast?" Zhao Yao said in surprise, "Father is really taking care of this matter. Don't you have any suspicion?"
"There is nothing to doubt about this. Your father said that the mountains and fields of Dahua Village are awarded to you, and he will also send people to build a village for you."
Zhao Yao was shocked: "Father is so good!"
"You are his son, and it is nothing if he rewards you with a Zhuangzi."
Zhao Yao had an expression of disbelief on his face: "Father is so generous!"
"To your father, a Zhuangzi is nothing." Liang Zhaoyi said with a smile, "Both the prince and the king were rewarded by Zhuangzi by your father, and there were more than one Zhuangzi." In addition to the ordinary Zhuangzi, the prince and the king had , and hot spring villa.
"The prince's brother and second brother are both adults. It is normal for my father to reward them Zhuangzi. I am not yet an adult and I am still a little kid. It is strange that my father suddenly rewards me Zhuangzi." Zhao Yao still doesn't believe that Emperor Zhou Wu would be so kind. , "Father, there won't be any tricks, right?"
"What tricks can your father have against you?" Liang Zhaoyi pinched her son's little face, "Here you go, just keep it, don't think about something that is not there."
"Didn't my father ask my second uncle why he wanted to buy mountains and fields?"
"Isn't it normal to buy mountains and fields? Do you have anything to ask?" Seeing her son being so wary of Emperor Zhou Wu, Liang Zhaoyi said in her heart that Emperor Zhou Wu deserved it. If he hadn't often teased and bullied Yaoyao, Yaoyao wouldn't be so suspicious of him. "Your third brother and the others are not yet adults, and they have also bought a lot of mountains and fields."
"That's right." Zhao Yao said, and suddenly laughed evilly, "We saved a lot of money, it's really great!" Sometimes the stinky father is quite good.
"When will we start building the village?"
"Your second uncle will arrange it."
"Then I have to finish Zhuangzi's design quickly and give it to my second uncle."
"In a while, won't you have to take a rest? Then you will leave the palace and give it to your second uncle." Liang Zhaoyi said with a smile, "You can leave the palace openly this time, or you can stay outside for a few more days."
"What's the meaning?"
"I told the emperor that when you take a rest, you will go to your second uncle. Then your second uncle will take you to Dahua Village."
Zhao Yao asked in astonishment: "Father, did you agree?"
"accepted."
After hearing this, Zhao Yao opened his mouth in surprise: "When did my father become so good? Is this still the father I know?" Isn't his father possessed by evil spirits?
Seeing what Zhao Yao was thinking, Liang Zhaoyi knocked his little head helplessly.
"Don't think too much."
Zhao Yao suddenly looked at Liang Zhaoyi with a strange look, "Concubine, when my father came here before, did you give him some ecstasy soup or drug..." Before he could finish his words, Little Ear started talking. Being twisted by Liang Zhaoyi, he screamed in pain, "It hurts... it hurts..."
"Do you still dare to talk nonsense?"
"I don't dare anymore. Concubine, please spare my life." Zhao Yao hurriedly begged for mercy.
Liang Zhaoyi let go of her hand, deliberately kept a straight face, and said with a warning: "Next time you talk nonsense like this, I won't be lenient."
Zhao Yao rubbed his ears and said obediently: "I don't dare anymore. I will never say it again." Apart from this reason, he really couldn't think of why his father suddenly became so good.
"Okay, go to bed."
"Oh." As soon as Zhao Yao got to bed, he suddenly thought about the stirrups and asked Liang Zhaoyi, "Mother and concubine, will you let your father know about the stirrups tomorrow?"
"Well, tomorrow you take the stirrups and go practice horse riding."
"Okay, concubine, I'm going back to the room."
After Zhao Yao greeted Liang Zhaoyi, he returned to his room.
Tong Xi hurriedly took out a painting from his arms and handed it to Zhao Yao: "Your Highness, this is a painting painted by Tong An."
Zhao Yao took it and opened it. There were orchids painted inside.
Tong'an is indeed good at painting, and the orchids he paints look like real orchids, unlike the orchids he paints that look like leeks.
"He's good at painting orchids?"
"Actually, Tongan is better at painting portraits." Tongxi said, "Because he was afraid that you would be in a hurry, he painted an orchid first."
"I'm good at painting portraits." Zhao Yao rubbed his chin, thinking about something thoughtfully.
"Your Highness, both Nu and Tong Le have inspected Tong'an. There is nothing wrong with him and he can be reused by you." Tongxi asked, "How do you plan to use him?"
"In a few days, I will go to Dahua Village with my second uncle and ask him to join us." Zhao Yao said, "He will work with his second uncle in the future."
Zhao Yao asked again: "Is he literate?
"Those who are literate can also write." Tong Xi said, "His paintings and calligraphy were all learned from an old eunuch."
"Then he can do a lot of things with his second uncle. How is his injury?"
"Okay, that's almost it."
Zhao Yao thought for a while and said, "Send him out of the palace to find his second uncle tomorrow night."
"Tomorrow night?" Tongxi asked in surprise, "Your Highness, didn't you take him out of the palace when you take a bath?"
"It's better to let him go to his second uncle in advance." Zhao Yao said, "Let his second uncle test him."
"Slave, I'll go talk to him later."
"Go, I'm going to sleep." As soon as Zhao Yao finished speaking, he yawned.
"Slave, please leave."
The next day, at 4:00 p.m., Zhao Yao was woken up by Tongxi on time.
After breakfast, Zhao Yao was just about to go to Wende Hall when he saw Lai Qian and Lai Xi coming back.
[Yao Yao, we are back. ] The money flew onto Zhao Yao's shoulder and rubbed Zhao Yao's face with its little head.
Zhao Yao reached out and held the money in front of his eyes, lowered his head, rubbed its little head, and kissed it again.
"You are finally back. I miss you."
【We miss you too. 】
"Is nothing happened to you?" Zhao Yao asked with concern, "Are you not injured?"
Laiqian: [No, nothing happened to us. It’s just that Yangzhou is too far away from the capital. 】
"Thank you for your hard work." Zhao Yao kissed Lai Qian and Lai Xi again, "You can rest in the Kunde Hall first. I will come back to you at noon."
[Okay, we'll wait for you to come back. 】
"Concubine, help me prepare some delicious food and give them money."
"good."
Zhao Yao touched Lai Qian and Lai Xi and said, "I'm going to study first." Although he wanted to know what happened in Yangzhou, it was getting late. If he doesn't set off for Wende Palace, he will be late.
Laiqian and Laixi had just flown back to the capital. As soon as they returned to the capital, they came directly to the palace to find Zhao Yao without even taking a break.
There is a room in Kunde Hall specially used for Zhao Yao's animal friends to rest and eat.
This was not the first time that Liang Zhaoyi helped Zhao Yao take care of his bird friends, and skillfully prepared snacks, apples and small bugs for them.
After Lai Qian and Lai Xi had a good meal, they rested on the soft cushions.
Lai Fu and Lai Cai stay by their side and act as their little bodyguards.
A few naughty little sparrows and little magpies flew directly to Laifu and Laicai to rest on them. Lai Fu and Lai Cai also don't move, letting them sleep on them.
Zhao Yao was delayed a bit because he talked to Lai Qian and the others for a while. He was the last one to arrive at Wende Hall.
As soon as they walked into Wende Hall, they heard the seventh prince and the ninth prince arguing.
The seventh prince said that the mastermind behind the assassination of the prince was King Dai.
The Ninth Prince said that the Seventh Prince was spitting blood, and that the masterminds behind the scenes were Queen Xie and the Seventh Prince.
Zhao Yao: It must be my mother who gave my father the ecstasy soup! I didn’t expect my mother-in-law to be capable of this!
