Seeing that his son was at a loss, Ye explained: "It's the son of my mother's second uncle, my cousin, isn't it your cousin?" Because we have been in Xiliang all these years, the road is far away, and the western Xinjiang has been fighting for many years, and your grandfather's business with Xibo Hunting has also been cut off, so there is less contact. But back to the Chinese New Year, your cousin has asked someone to give New Year's gifts, who told you that you have never been concerned about family affairs! ”

"I see." Rong Zhao didn't say anything, but he thought in his heart what use could such a distant relative do! Looking at the emperor's love for his sister like that, isn't it the public enemy of those women in the harem? It's no wonder that life can be better!

"Talking to you! What's the cranky thing about? Ye talked to himself for a while, and when he saw that Rong Zhao was stunned, he pushed him dissatisfied.

Rong Zhao hurriedly said: "Oh, I'm thinking, should I go to Beijing with my sister, watch my sister perform the canonization ceremony, and then visit this cousin by the way?" After all, our family is in Xiliang City, and my sister went to the capital alone to be helpless, which is really worrying. ”

Ye Shi listened to Rong Zhao's words but was deeply unimpressed, shook his head and said: "Your sister has the emperor's favor, so naturally she is not afraid of anything." Think about yourself! Since the Holy Decree has appointed you as the son, you should work hard to learn how to bow and ride well, and not disappoint your father. ”

Rong Zhao sneered indifferently: "Didn't my mother say last night that my sister is now the imperial concubine, and there is hope for your life?" So as long as my sister is the imperial concubine, what does it matter if I have the ability or not? ”

"You kid!" Ye Shi frowned his good-looking willow eyebrows, and the look of disgust on his face was also quite overwhelming, "Are you eating your sister's vinegar?" Your sister was named the imperial concubine, so naturally you and I rely on, but you are a man! You are my mother's support! ”

"Yes! I'm a boy. I am the pillar of support, the support of my mother and sister. Rong Zhao smiled self-deprecatingly, rolled his eyes, approached Ye again, and asked in a low voice: "Mother, haven't you heard that the emperor's favor is a double-edged sword?" Think about it, if my sister spoils the six palaces alone after entering the palace, how can the other concubines and queen mothers tolerate her? She is weak and weak, if she has three longs and two shorts, maybe it will affect the family! ”

Ye Shi was stunned when he heard this, and then whispered: "Don't talk nonsense!" ”

"Mother, my words are not good, but they are true. We have to plan ahead. Rong Zhao smiled faintly.

"Even if you're planning ahead, we can't help it. It is an established fact that your sister entered the palace as a concubine, and we can't resist the decree and disrespect, so we have to go with the flow! Besides, isn't there still your cousin in the capital? If there is really something, he will take care of it. He sighed.

"It turns out that my mother's love for my sister on weekdays is fake. At this time, he only pinned his hopes on a cousin he had never met. Rong Zhao shook his head and sighed.

"You kid! How is this talking to Wei Niang?! Ye said dissatisfiedly.

"Mother, don't be angry, actually, I have a better way to discuss it with you." Rong Zhao suddenly changed to a mischievous smile.

"What can I do! You're changing the law, and if you want to be angry, I'm just going to die! Ye glanced at Rong Zhao dissatisfied.

"I think I followed my sister to the capital. First, our sister and brother can take care of each other, and my sister is always a little inconvenient in the palace, and I am always more reliable than my cousin when I help her outside. Second, my father is in the prime of life, and in the future, our Rong family will definitely not be able to stay in this desolate Xiliang City for a lifetime, so it is better for me to go to the capital in a few years, and when my father returns to Beijing in the future, there is just a way out. Thirdly, I live in the capital, which is also conducive to watching the movements of the imperial court, and wouldn't it be better to see my father from afar? ”

also listened to Rong Zhao's words and fell into deep thought.

Rong Zhao saw that she didn't speak, so he asked tentatively: "Mother thinks that my sister and I are not by your side, and you can't fight the three girls in the East Courtyard alone?" ”

When Ye Shi heard this, the corners of his mouth curled into a sneer: "Now you are the prince, and your sister is the imperial concubine." As long as the two of you are safe and sound, will my mother be afraid of them? ”

"Mother is really smart." Rong Zhao hurriedly slapped a sycophant, "Our Rong family has a lot of power in the frontier, but it has no foundation in Shangjing. His father was born as a military general, and his ancestors did not have any meritorious achievements. If we stay in Xiliang City all the time, if the status quo is maintained, the emperor will inevitably think that we have made no achievements after a long time. If we have repeatedly performed miraculous feats, there will certainly be people in the DPRK and China who have made great achievements and shocked the Lord. So for the sake of long-term planning......"

"Your words are good!" Ye Shi didn't wait for Rong Zhao to say more, and immediately nodded in admiration, "You have really grown up, and you are much more thoughtful than your mother." ”

"Did my mother agree?" Rong Zhao asked with a smile.

"Well, I agreed. But I'll have to discuss this with your father. Ye said.

"Daddy doesn't listen to you for everything? You have an omnipotent magic weapon here," Rong Zhao raised his hand to wipe his tears, and stuck out his tongue mischievously.

Ye glanced at Rong Zhao and said angrily: "You are messing around again!" Now that he has been crowned the son of the world, he is not solemn for a moment. ”

"The general is back!" The maid outside the door opened the curtain as she spoke.

Rong Zhao hurriedly got up from the kang, Ye Shi also reached out to hold Rong Zhao's hand and wanted to get off the kang to greet her, Rong Shuo had already strode over and reached out to hold her: "Okay, if you are not feeling well, don't get up." ”

"General Xie is sympathetic." Ye Shi spoke softly, turned his head and instructed Rong Zhao: "Go and bring that cup of cordyceps stewed pigeon soup to your father." ”

Rong Zhao sighed silently, thinking that this sick and weak old lady could really pretend, but he still promised to turn around and serve the soup.

"That's it! I drank a cup of pheasant soup when I first arrived, and I didn't want to eat anything at this point. Zhao'er is also tired from the day, so go back early to rest. Rong Shuo waved his hand and said.

Ye nodded with a smile and said to Rong Zhao: "Then since your father said so, you can go back and rest." ”

Rong Zhao saluted his father and mother again, exhaled with a cold wind, and said to Lan Yun, the maid who was guarding the door, "I can finally go back." ”

Lan Yun hurriedly unfolded the fox fur cloak in his arms and draped it on Rong Zhao's shoulders, and said while tying the belt: "It's getting colder and colder, Childe must be careful not to catch a cold." ”

"Gone, gone! Went back to sleep. Rong Zhao stretched out his hand to tighten the edge of the cloak and hurried towards his yard.
