But when the emperor acts, he must follow the etiquette and pay attention to "the teacher is famous", so even if Zhao Hongrun spoiled his favorite ornamental objects, Zhao Yuanxi, the son of the Great Wei Dynasty, still had to hold back his anger and ask this son why he did this, although he knew the reason very well in his heart.

No, obviously dripping blood in his heart in distress, Zhao Yuanxi, the son of the Great Wei Dynasty, still took the grilled fish handed over by his son and accepted his naked malice, uh no, it was "goodwill".

"Golden Scales Tail......"

Thinking of the precious golden carp that used to swim happily in the fish viewing pond, but now it has become a precious golden carp that is cooked and eaten in his hands, the Great Wei Tianzi took a breath slowly, and asked in a more and more kind tone: "Do I know the origin of this fish?" ”

"It's a local tribute sent to the palace, and it's said to be called 'Golden Scale Tail'." Zhao Hongrun has a look that I am very proficient in.

"Oh? Hehehehe-"

A series of laughter rang out from the Great Wei Tianzi, although he seemed to be laughing, the green tendons on his forehead bloomed at the roots, making his smile very strange and unharmonious.

"Deliberately! This rebel really did it on purpose!'

His face was silent, still laughing, but deep down, the Great Wei Tianzi was roaring with hatred.

Seeing the appearance of the Son of Heaven, the three Chinese scholars who were familiar with the Son of Heaven were shocked and changed slightly, and they couldn't see that the Son of Heaven at this moment was in a rage, and there was a possibility of an outbreak at any time.

However, Zhao Hongrun, the bold eighth prince, still has a calm attitude, and this calmness really amazes the three Chinese scholars.

After a burst of laughter, the Great Wei Tianzi turned his gaze at his son Zhao Hongrun, and asked pretending not to care: "Knowing that it is the imperial tribute, why is my son still so bad?" Is it a grievance? ”

Everyone present felt a pang in their hearts when they heard this.

The Son of Heaven is in trouble, at this time, if Zhao Hongrun's answer does not satisfy the Son of Heaven, then he must be locked up in the Zongfu and think about it.

However, Zhao Hongrun's expression was still very calm, and he asked with a puzzled expression: "What is my father talking about, how dare the emperor complain about my father?" ”

"Just don't dare? So, have you thought about it? Da Wei Tianzi's eyes were a little sharper, and his words were aggressive.

At this time, even the old eunuch Tong Xian shrank his head in fright, and the other two little eunuchs fell to their knees with a pop because they couldn't bear the wrath of the Son of Heaven.

But Zhao Hongrun was still not in a hurry, and said with a smile: "Father's suspicion is really serious, the father is the biological father of the emperor, and the emperor is the father and son of the emperor, how can there be any complaints?" Speaking of this, he smacked his lips and pretended to sigh: "The emperor is in trouble. ”

"Oh?" Hearing Zhao Hongrun say this, the anger in the heart of the Great Wei Tianzi gradually subsided, but he became a little curious: "What are you worried about?" ”

"That's the ......" Zhao Hongrun arched his hand to the Son of Heaven and said solemnly: "A few days ago, the emperor spent a lot of silver taels in order to develop that kite...... Although he asked his father for forty taels at that time, his father should also understand that it was just the cost of a kite, not counting the previous failures. Hey, in order to make that kite, the emperor spent hundreds of taels before and after, so that I was free...... Oh, no, it's not enough money in my Wenzhao Pavilion to feed the emperor and the ten sect guards. You also know that even if you are a prince, if you want to eat something, you have to pay silver taels to the dining room, and there are also rewards for the little fathers-in-law in the palace......"

According to the ancestral system of the Great Wei Dynasty, the Zongfu would pay a sum of silver taels to each prince every month as a monthly salary. Don't think that the prince doesn't need to pay for dinner in the palace, in fact, even if it is the prince, whatever food they want to eat, they have to greet the dining room in advance and pay the corresponding silver taels, which is to control the prince's appetite and prevent extravagance and waste.

In addition, if the prince sends the little eunuch in the palace, he will also have to give a reward after the matter is completed, which is a rule that the palace acquiesces in.

Therefore, the prince who has not left the cabinet is basically very poor, in Zhao Hongrun's words, it is to die to save face and suffer crimes, obviously there is not much money in his pocket, but when he sends the little eunuch in the palace, he still has to give a reward or two, which is called the posture of the superior.

According to Zhao Hongrun, almost all of his monthly income last month was used to make the kite, and he had no money left, but this month's monthly income has not been obtained in his hand, so he has little money in his hands, and he can't support himself and ten humeral guards, so in desperation, he has to rely on himself.

Of course, this is just Zhao Hongrun's one-sided words, as long as he is in the know, who would not have guessed that this son must have a grudge against the Great Wei Emperor for cutting his monthly salary by 20% of the month, and deliberately gave birth to something, purely to block the Son of Heaven.

"That's why you've ruined my golden scales and tail, and your purple bamboo and tear bamboo?" Da Wei Tianzi didn't laugh angrily, and trembled angrily.

"How so?" Zhao Hongrun's eyes widened, and he said with self-pity: "The emperor just feels ashamed!" ”

"Shame?" The Son of Heaven wondered, but he didn't have a seizure.

"Not really! Father, you see, the emperor is already fourteen years old, but until now, he has always lived a pampered life, and everything he wears and eats in his mouth is from the sect. How can a dignified man not be ashamed that he can't support himself? So the emperor decided to be self-reliant! Pointing to the fish pond, Zhao Hongrun said with a bright smile: "It just so happened that when I passed by the fish pond that day, the emperor saw that there were fish in the pond, and he suddenly had a plan in his heart. ”

"Hehehehehehe-"

The Great Wei Tianzi laughed angrily and rebuked angrily: "What a self-reliant!" With this excuse that even a three-year-old child can't be fooled, you dare to ...... me."

At this time, he suddenly saw Zhao Hongrun's face straight, and he interrupted the Great Wei Tianzi with an extremely calm tone.

"It's just a plaything, isn't it?"

『……』

The Great Wei Tianzi was stunned when he heard this, and the anger on his face was actually frozen on his face.

At this time, he saw Zhao Hongrun raise his head, and said in a tone that was very inconsistent with his immature appearance: "On that day in the Wenzhao Palace, my father reprimanded the emperor not to lose his mind. Since the father taught the emperor with this, he must not reprimand the emperor for just a few playthings. …… What is the prince's consciousness, and the mere plaything, which is higher or lower? ”

『……』

Da Wei Tianzi squinted his eyes, but he was speechless by his own son.

Indeed, no matter how precious the golden scale tail and the purple bamboo and tear bamboo are, the essence is only an ornamental object after all, and it is okay for Zhao Hongrun to forcibly define it as a plaything. And although this son's so-called self-reliance is purely just a lie in the eyes of the Great Wei Tianzi, but when he says this, he really can't reprimand this prince anymore.

Otherwise, it will fall under the pretext that "the consciousness of the prince is not as good as a few playthings in the eyes of the Son of Heaven", which is not helpful for teaching the rest of the princes.

Seeing that the Son of Heaven was obviously angry, but he couldn't have a seizure, the three ministers of Zhongshu were amazed.

You must know that a few of them know that the eighth prince Zhao Hongrun spoiled the favorite things of the Great Wei Emperor in order to take revenge, which is nothing, if it doesn't make sense, there is a chance that His Royal Highness the prince will be locked up in the Zongfu to face the wall.

It's strange that this Eighth Highness still has a way to make it difficult for the Son of Heaven to speak, and it is difficult for fire to break out.

It's really called ability!

"Good intentions! What a rhetoric!'

The three Chinese ministers were amazed.

They originally thought that His Royal Highness would set himself on fire this time, but they didn't expect that in the end, it would be a dilemma for the Son of Great Wei.

Now, it's up to the emperor to parry.

Under the silent attention of the three Chinese scholars, Zhao Yuanxi, the emperor of Great Wei, actually laughed out loud after his face was cloudy for a while.

"Good! Good! Good! It's really a thousand miles of horses! …… Come, I grill fish with the emperor! ”

After that, Zhao Yuanxi put on a kind smile on his face, and instructed Mu Qing and the other ten sect guards: "Wait for the golden carp in the pond to be fished quickly, and I will grill the fish with the emperor!" ”

The words of the Great Wei Tianzi shocked everyone present.

Leaving aside the ten Zongwei such as Mu Qing, who had been trembling from beginning to end, the three Zhongshu ministers had already expected it.

You must know that Zhao Yuanxi is the son of the Great Wei Emperor, how can his mind and bearing be influenced by just a few playthings?

They looked at His Highness Eight with narrow eyes, and faintly noticed that this Eighth Highness, who had been indifferent from beginning to end, also had a look of surprise on his face at this moment.

Yes, Zhao Hongrun was stunned.

According to his original plan, even if his father Zhao Yuanxi didn't punish him, he would not be so free and open-minded, after all, these playthings were His Majesty's favorite ornamental objects on weekdays.

Unexpectedly, instead of blaming, Zhao Yuanxi grilled fish with him, which made Zhao Hongrun feel a little panicked when his plan was disrupted.

"It's really worthy of being an emperor, this mind, this bearing, I really have nothing to say...... But how long can you last it?'

Thinking of this, Zhao Hongrun deliberately pretended to be discouraged, looked at the emperor of Great Wei and said with heartfelt emotion: "My father is really worthy of being my emperor of Great Wei, open-minded, and the emperor will never be able to catch up with ......"

"That's when you thought of making me happy? It's late!'

Zhao Yuanxi snorted coldly in his heart, but having said that, he was quite happy to hear this son praise him so much, as a father.

At this time, I saw Zhao Hongrun take out a wooden box from behind him, respectfully present it with both hands, and said: "Although my father did not blame the emperor, the emperor was difficult to deal with in his heart. May this little gift be able to win the hearts of my father. ”

"Isn't this kid already preparing a gift to coax me?"

Zhao Yuanxi wondered in his heart, took the wooden box, opened it, and saw that the wooden box contained a very pleasing peony flower.

The fly in the ointment is that this peony was not dug out of the soil with the roots together, but directly cut off the stem.

"It's a pity!" Zhao Yuanxi is a person who knows how to appreciate flowers, and when he saw this, he frowned and taught: "The emperor is too reckless, how can such flowers ......?"

Speaking of this, the Great Wei Tianzi was suddenly stunned, and said in his heart that this son can't leave the palace, where did he get this flower?

Looking closer, the Son of Heaven felt more and more that this peony was very familiar, as if it came from his favorite flower garden.

The familiar heart-wrenching feeling in his chest struck again, and Zhao Yuanxi pointed at the flower with a slightly trembling right hand, and said tentatively: "Emperor, this plant...... Where did you get this flower? ”

"It's one of the plants that my father personally takes care of on weekdays! …… When the emperor saw that it was gorgeous, he was overjoyed and specially took it off and gave it to his father! Zhao Hongrun said with a grin.

Da Wei Tianzi only felt that it was dark in front of him, and he knew that those flowers were treasures that he personally took care of in his free time.

"Hmph, hahahahaha-"

Zhao Yuanxi couldn't help but laugh again.

"I, I would have naively thought that this son would be lost, and kindly gave me a gift, but I didn't expect it...... I didn't expect ...... Hahahaha!'

"This rebel! The appearance is pleasing to people, but the inside is simply a demon!!"

The heartbroken Emperor of Great Wei was completely furious.
