Chapter 93: I'm not! I didn't!
"Ah, it's my father!"
When Zhao Duobao saw Emperor Qinglong, he cheered, trotted over, hugged one of Emperor Qinglong's arms with both hands, and said happily: "Father, why are you here?" ”
Emperor Qinglong doted on this daughter the most, reached out and touched her head, and said with a smile: "What, the father is not welcome?" ”
Zhao Duobao said: "Of course you are welcome!" It's just that you, Father, are usually busy with state affairs and rarely come to visit me and my sister. Why did you suddenly come here today? ”
When Emperor Qinglong heard this, he felt a little guilty in his heart.
In recent years, there have been wars between Zhao and several surrounding countries, and Emperor Qinglong was worried about state affairs, and he was so exhausted that he rarely went to the harem.
Of his five children, he often summoned three of his sons, but his two daughters rarely saw him once or twice a year.
"Father has been busy lately, and I will come to see you more in the future."
Emperor Qinglong sighed lightly and said.
After Zhao Duofu finished practicing a set of swordsmanship, he put the sword aside, and then walked in front of Emperor Qinglong, and said slightly: "I've seen my father." ”
He saluted the old eunuch behind Emperor Qinglong, and respectfully called "Manager Sun".
Emperor Qinglong glanced at Zhao Duofu a few times, nodded, and said with relief: "Duofu, your swordsmanship has improved a lot compared to before!" No wonder Xiao Dezi said that you are a good material for martial arts, and you do not hesitate to teach you! ”
The little virtue in his mouth is the old eunuch Sun De who followed him.
Sun De's family was poor since he was a child, and he entered the palace as a eunuch at the age of ten, and later because of his intelligence and flexible eyelids, he was appreciated by the first emperor and asked him to study with Emperor Qinglong, who was still a prince at the time.
Sun De is diligent and studious, and has the ability to never forget, and he has read almost all the palace collections.
Later, he found several martial arts cheats handed down from the previous dynasty in those palace collections, so he practiced on his own, but he didn't expect to become a first-class powerhouse of the grandmaster.
Emperor Qinglong was able to successfully inherit the unification and ascend the throne as the emperor, and Sun De contributed a lot.
Today's Sun De, who is in charge of Da Nei, is the most confidant of Emperor Qinglong, and it can be said that his importance to Emperor Qinglong even exceeds that of several princes.
Therefore, several princes and princesses, including the crown prince, all respected Sun De and gave three points of courtesy.
Among the princes and princesses, Zhao Duofu, who has a high talent in martial arts and is gentle and polite, is the most loved by Sun De and regards him as his own.
When Zhao Duofu was a few years old, Sun De began to teach her martial arts, and Zhao Duofu can now be among the first-class masters, of course, there are her own reasons, but Sun De's careful teaching without concealment is the most important thing.
Therefore, for Sun De, Zhao Duofu has always treated him with a teacher's courtesy.
"Princess Yifu is gifted and intelligent, with extraordinary qualifications, and her achievements in martial arts are mostly due to her own hard work. The role of the old slave is insignificant. ”
Sun De glanced at Zhao Duofu dotingly and said modestly.
Emperor Qinglong waved his hand: "Okay, Xiaodezi, you don't have to be modest, you teach a lot of blessings and merits, and I remember this merit in my heart." ”
He sat down at the stone table in the courtyard, beckoned Zhao Duofu and Zhao Duobao to sit beside him, and Wen Yan chatted with them about some trivial things.
"I heard that the two of you secretly followed Bang'er to Jinyang City some time ago, and encountered some things during the process...... Can you talk to your father? ”
Emperor Qinglong's words changed sharply, and he suddenly said.
Zhao Duofu and Zhao Duobao heard their father mention this matter, and they looked at each other, both a little nervous.
The two of them were bored in the palace at the beginning, and went to the Qin Palace's mansion to play with the third brother Zhao Bang, and accidentally learned that Zhao Bang was ordered by his father to go to the border to inspect the border situation, so they begged to go together.
Zhao Bang has always doted on these two sisters, and he was pestered by them with a headache, so he had to agree.
It's just that the three of them didn't expect that they would be assassinated by the Hu people in Jinyang City, if it weren't for the rescue of everyone in Yangjiazhai, maybe it would be difficult to escape.
Since returning from Jinyang City, the three of them have a tacit understanding to hide this matter in their hearts, and have not told anyone else, even Emperor Qinglong.
Emperor Qinglong suddenly said it at this moment, obviously already knowing.
"Father, my sister and I hid it from you at the beginning, and we were afraid that you would not let us go if you found out...... I hope that my father will forgive my sins......"
Zhao Duobao secretly looked at his father's face and saw that he showed no signs of anger, so he said cautiously.
"Tell me what it is, and I won't blame you."
Emperor Qinglong's face was pale, and he couldn't see joy, anger and sorrow.
But his expression made Zhao Duofu and Zhao Duobao even more uneasy.
"Sister, you ...... it"
Zhao Duobao hid behind Zhao Duofu and rubbed the corners of his clothes.
Zhao Duofu knew that at this time, he couldn't do it if he didn't say it, so he straightened out his thoughts and explained in detail what happened to his brother and sister in Jinyang City.
Emperor Qinglong listened attentively, and his brows furrowed.
His three sons and daughters were assassinated by the Hu people outside Jinyang City, and Emperor Qinglong knew about this matter before the three brothers and sisters of Zhao Bang returned to the imperial capital.
At that time, Emperor Qinglong was furious, but his anger was not directed at his three children, but on the side of Hu.
He didn't expect that the people of Hu would boldly assassinate the prince and princess of Zhao in the territory of Zhao State, but fortunately, the three brothers and sisters of Zhao Bang were safe and sound, otherwise with the iron-blooded character of Emperor Qinglong, maybe they would send troops to Hu State to seek justice for their children.
"I didn't expect that the people who saved the lives of your three brothers and sisters were actually a few villagers in a small village on the border of my Zhao Kingdom...... This is a life-saving grace, you three brothers and sisters, have you ever thought about how to repay them? ”
Emperor Qinglong twisted his beard and asked quietly.
Zhao Duofu was stunned, she really hadn't thought about this question carefully, and shook her head at the moment.
Emperor Qinglong said: "But Bang'er's child has a heart...... He cooperated with the people of Yangjiazhai and opened a restaurant in this imperial capital, what is it called Yangjia Restaurant, don't you know? ”
"Huh? That Yang's Restaurant...... Do you also have a share of the third brother? ”
Zhao Duobao asked blankly.
She and Zhao Duofu both thought that the Yang family restaurant was opened by Yang Xu and others, and they really didn't know that their third brother was also involved in it.
Emperor Qinglong snorted lightly, obviously a little unhappy: "Although Bang'er has the intention to repay his kindness, he shouldn't have any part in that restaurant, and it's the biggest one!" This is a competition with the people! ”
At this time, Zhao Duobao just thought in his heart: The third brother is also one of the restaurant owners of Yangjia Restaurant, so can I go to eat and drink for nothing in the future? Wow, so happy!
Zhao Duofu was worried that the third brother would be ordered by his father to apply for help, so he hurriedly said: "The next time I see the third brother, I will convey my father's intention to him and ask him to withdraw from the Yang family restaurant." ”
"Don't!"
Zhao Duobao blurted out a sentence, and when he saw that his sister and father were looking at him, he quickly covered his mouth, rolled his eyes, and said, "I mean...... Oh, I mean, the third brother don't compete with the people for profit! ”
Emperor Qinglong knows this daughter very well, how can he not know her thoughts? Stretched out his finger and pointed at her: "You girl, don't think that your father doesn't know your mind." Do you think that the third brother has a part in the restaurant, so he is ready to eat and drink for nothing every once in a while, yes or no? ”
How can Zhao Duobao admit it? The head shook like a rattle: "I'm not!" I didn't! ”
Emperor Qinglong glared at her, then stood up and prepared to leave.
Before leaving, he thought for a while and said to Zhao Duofu: "You saw Bang'er and told him for your father that since he had already been involved in the restaurant, it would not be good to quit suddenly...... Since he took other people's money, he wants to keep others safe, and it can be regarded as repaying the other party's life-saving kindness! ”
Zhao Duofu knew that his father would no longer pursue this matter, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and nodded: "Duofu remembers!" ”
