Zhao Yu didn't expect Zhao Ting to come over, especially late at night. In the years since he left the palace and opened his mansion, Zhao Ting had only come to his place five times.
The first time was when he got married, the next four times were when his two legitimate sons were one month old and one year old, and the rest were gone.
Therefore, Zhao Yu couldn't guess why Zhao Tingsuo came today: "Brother Qi, you are a rare visitor. Do you want to see me if you have anything to do?"
Zhao Ting sat down in Zhao Yu's study, waved his hand and said, "Tell everyone to get down."
This is really something!
Zhao Yu quickly chased the people away and asked his personal eunuch to guard the door. He closed the door and came back quickly: "Brother Qi, what's going on? It's so mysterious."
Although he was jealous of Li Guifei's return to Zhao Ting's marriage, and a little bit disgusted with Zhao Ting's life experience because of his accurate guess, but when he saw the seventh brother who had been protecting him since he was a child, he still instinctively got close to him: "What's the matter?" Son, just give me your orders, I have nothing to say here!"
If Zhao Yu hadn't been such a person, Zhao Ting wouldn't have been able to protect him. Seeing him like this, Zhao Ting really couldn't find the slightest trace of anger towards him: "Earlier in the palace, my mother and concubine said that at the end of the month, my father would be... I was given a marriage, but I didn’t ask who the person was who gave me the marriage. Ninth brother, do you know who the woman is?"
So that’s what happened!
Zhao Yu's uneasy tone was a little sour: "Brother Qi, you are so lucky. Your future princess is the famous Miss Lu Qinghe in Beijing!"
"Seriously?" Zhao Ting's heart suddenly sank and he asked urgently.
Zhao Yu only thought that he was too excited to believe it, and his tone became even more sour: "This can still be false. This is what my mother and concubine told me personally. Lu Qinghe is the eldest daughter of the Minister of War, Lu, and she is not only talented but also beautiful. , in addition to having a father like Lu Shilang, he also has a brother-in-law like Weiyuan Marquis! This is a first-class marriage, seventh brother, congratulations to you!" Although he felt sour in his heart, Zhao Yu still didn't I'm glad that the fertilizer didn't flow into other people's fields after all.
A first-class marriage?
yes! This is truly a first-class marriage!
Zhao Ting couldn't control his sneer, patted Zhao Yu on the shoulder, stood up and said, "Okay, I'll go then."
Zhao Yu hurriedly stood up to see him off: "Seventh brother, you have such a good wife, you must not forget me in the future! We are biological brothers, no matter what outsiders say, no matter what the attitude of the father, queen and mother is, in the In my heart, you will always be my brother!"
Zhao Ting couldn't say anything and looked at Zhao Yu for a long time. Finally, he sighed softly and strode away.
Zhao Yu was confused, but he said to himself: "Maybe I have thought too much. How can such a good marriage be possible if I am not a biological son?"

In the palace, Caiyun has been waiting for Tang Yuyao. She had no hope at such a late hour, but she didn't expect that Tang Yuyao came back when she was about to return to her residence.
And he is alone.
She immediately greeted her: "Sister Yuyao, you are finally back."
Tang Yuyao was a little surprised: "Miss Caiyun, do you want to see me for something?"
Caiyun hesitated for a moment, then directly took Tang Yuyao's hand: "Sister Yuyao, let's go to your residence to talk." Then he looked back and said, "Didn't the prince come back?"
She thought that since Tang Yuyao hadn't returned yet at such a late hour, she must be with Zhao Ting.
Tang Yuyao said: "Master still has something to do and said he would come back later."
Caiyun smiled: "That's just right. Sister Yuyao and I can talk for a while."
Tang Yuyao couldn't guess what Caiyun was going to say, but she didn't refuse. If they really wanted to talk, it would definitely have something to do with Zhao Ting.
Lan Xiang pursed her lips unhappily. She couldn't say anything in front of Caiyun, so she just tugged on Qian.
Qian didn't understand either. Miss Yuyao was so favored by her master that she and Miss Caiyun should be mortal enemies. But now they were holding hands, how could they act like good sisters? But she saw that Miss Yuyao was not stupid, so she had her own reasons for doing so, so she didn't need to say anything.
Therefore, he patted Lan Xiang and did not ask Lan Xiang to speak.
What does Caiyun want to tell Tang Yuyao? When they arrived at Taoyuan and sent the servants to sit down, Caiyun held Tang Yuyao's hand and said: "Sister Yuyao, I can tell you are the best person when I look at you. Not only are you not far away from me when I come here suddenly, I'm tired of it." Looking at me, you actually told me everything about the master." The key point is that the truth is true. This is so rare. She said seriously: "I am really grateful to you in my heart!"
Tang Yuyao ignored the strange feeling in her heart and said: "It's nothing, as long as you can serve the master with all your heart."
After saying this, not to mention that Caiyun felt that she sounded like a royal concubine, even she herself felt something was wrong.
However, Caiyun didn't show any signs of strangeness. On the contrary, he was very happy: "Yes, yes, I think so too. We are all the master's people, and our purpose is to serve the master well! But although I know the master's likes and dislikes, But when I first entered the house, I had no reason to get close to the master... Sister Yuyao, can you help me?"
Even if she said this, Caiyun felt that she was really shameless.
As long as Tang Yuyao is not stupid, there is no way she will agree.
"I can help you talk to the master, but the key is for you to show your face to the master more often and impress him first, so that I can talk." Tang Yuyao thought about it seriously and said, "Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't tell you. use."
Caiyun was shocked. She held Tang Yuyao's hand and said, "Sister Yuyao, you are really my biological sister!"
Tang Yuyao didn't know how to answer this, so she pulled out her hand and said, "If you are fine, why not stay here for a while and see the master first when he comes back."
Caiyun knew that Tang Yuyao was giving her a chance, and immediately said: "It's okay, it's okay! Sister Yuyao, do you have anything you need me to do? I'm just doing nothing here, you have Whatever you need to do, just send me to do it."
Tang Yuyao said: "Then you can make a pair of shoes for the master first!"
"Hey!" Caiyun happily agreed and stayed with Tang Yuyao until Zhao Ting came back.
Because there were servants outside saluting, Caiyun and Tang Yuyao had already stood up and waited respectfully aside before Zhao Ting entered the room.
It has been getting colder these past two days. Zhao Ting saw someone out of the corner of his eye when he entered the door. He wanted to pull Tang Yuyao out of habit, but when he reached out halfway, he remembered that he was cold, so he turned around and took his hand back. Caiyun sighed sadly, and after retracting his hand, Zhao Ting also saw the person in front of him clearly, and the expression on his face became lighter.
"I would like to pay my respects to the prince." Caiyun, a smart person, hurriedly knelt down and saluted respectfully.
Tang Yuyao had a perfect smile on her face and said, "I'm back. It's cold outside. Do you want to have a cup of hot tea first?"
Zhao Ting didn't reply, and his eyes were fixed on Caiyun: "Why are you here?"
His voice was calm and calm, and he didn't look unhappy, but for some reason, Caiyun's heart trembled when he heard it: "I... I am accompanying Sister Yuyao."
Zhao Ting then looked at Tang Yuyao, with an inquiring look in his eyes.
Tang Yuyao nodded: "Yes, Sister Caiyun came into the mansion alone. It happened that I didn't have anyone to talk to on weekdays, so I asked her to come and accompany me." Tang Yuyao felt that Zhao Ting was in something wrong today. She had felt it when we separated at the gate of the palace. But now the feeling is more obvious. However, she only wanted to leave, and she had promised Caiyun to help. Although she knew that Zhao Ting would not go to Caiyun so soon, she still had a try attitude and said: "Master, it has been several days since Sister Caiyun entered the house. ,tonight……"
Before she finished speaking, Zhao Ting interrupted: "I will go to her room tonight."
Tang Yuyao was slightly startled, then nodded with a smile: "Okay."
Zhao Ting's heart froze, and then he quickly turned to look at Caiyun.
Caiyun's eyes were already shining with joy: "Your Majesty, is it really...really?"
Zhao Ting's answer was to turn around and stride out.
Caiyun was so happy that she jumped on the spot, then rushed up and grabbed Tang Yuyao's hand tightly, and chased him out before she could say anything.
After the two of them walked away, the smile on Tang Yuyao's face faded.
"Sister Yuyao!" Lan Xiang was anxious and angry, and she was about to burst into tears, "You, you, you, you really lured the wolf into the house! Why didn't you leave a master behind!"
Tang Yuyao smiled faintly and said, "Okay, I'm sleepy, you can go down and have a rest."
Lan Xiang refused: "Sister Yuyao!"
Tang Yuyao said: "Without her, there will be others. How can I stay? Besides, when the princess comes in, how can I still be qualified to stay?" My life is about to be confessed, but I still want to stay.
