Chapter 154: Confession
Several children couldn't help but rush towards Zhongli when they saw Zhongli like this, hugging Zhongli's thighs one by one.
"Don't!"
"Brother, I don't want to go, I don't want to go!"
"No, I don't want to leave the second brother!"
"Second brother, don't let me go!"
……
Several children hugged Zhongli's thighs and cried hard, Zhongli couldn't help biting his lip, sniffing to stop the tears that had just collapsed, reaching out to wipe the tears on his face, trying to touch their little faces, and smiling at them.
"Didn't I say that before? It's just a matter of playing and playing! And the second brother promises that as long as I am busy with this matter, I will pick you up soon, you know? And you haven't seen your big brother for so long, you must miss them a lot, right? If you don't go, the eldest brother and sister-in-law will be sad. ”
Wang Qinglin, who had been watching their conversation next to him, also spoke beside him.
"Yes, the eldest prince has now prepared the rooms of the young ladies of the princes, and is looking forward to everyone passing!"
Zhongli also nodded wildly beside him.
"Yes, yes! When did the second brother lie to you, don't cry, I'll go right away, believe me! ”
The children sniffed and nodded heavily at Zhongli, who stuffed them into the carriage.
Zhongli sniffed, and then nodded towards Wang Qinglin with a stiff expression.
"Take care of them for me, remember."
Wang Qinglin also looked solemn.
"Second son, don't worry, with me, I will definitely protect the little boy and the little miss!"
Zhongli nodded, watching their carriage leave with red eyes and snorting, but tears still ran down his cheeks.
Zhao Yiyan had seen Zhong Li shed tears, but he had never seen him cry so painfully.
But after waking up, Zhongli reached out and clenched his fist to smash his mouth tightly, not daring to let himself make any more noise, for fear that his emotions would collapse again.
Zhao Yiyan sighed softly, walked over and took Zhongli into his arms, patted it lightly, and spoke a little helplessly.
"You also said they used to just want to have fun! Won't you still have to bring people back when the time comes? ”
Zhongli's body stiffened suddenly, and he couldn't help but push Zhao Yiyan away, nodded lightly, and pulled the corners of his lips stiffly, but his face was a little cold.
She was going to pick them up, but they were no longer them!
But these words can only be known to them, but they cannot say them.
He shook his head.
"Probably just because we haven't been separated since we were young, so it's a little uncomfortable! But there shouldn't be any problem. ”
After speaking, he walked straight towards the palace.
Since this day, there has been something wrong with Zhongli, he has been unstoppable all day long, Zhao Yiyan was still by his side two days ago, and then because of the tension of the war, there was no way to pay attention to him anymore, just let the old housekeeper of the palace stare at Zhongli, and report anything in time. ”
And Zhongli knew that the enemy soldiers were approaching the city and even after the sneak attack failed in the night before, he had already bothered to sit in the palace, waiting for the results of the battle report from Zhao Yiyan's side anytime and anywhere.
Capital.
IV. Baylor House.
The four princesses, who had already received the confrontation between the two armies, were anxiously circling in place at this time.
"What to do? What to do? Chen'er is still in the border city now, what if something happens? ”
Four Baylor sat at the table with a heavy face at this time, with a serious expression, and he did not speak for a long time.
The princess finally couldn't help it, turned her head and walked over to him, kneeling directly in front of Zhao Zi's fitness, and put her hands on each other's knees.
"Husband, the concubine is really worried about Chen'er, let Mr. He bring him back, okay? Count the concubines begging you? ”
Looking at the imperial concubine with tears in her eyes and a choked voice, Zhao Zijian finally took a deep breath and shook his head at her.
"I also showed you the letter Zhongli sent me before! She's right, what if something happens on the road? Don't worry, Zhao Yiyan won't have an accident, even if something happens, He Hongming will definitely bring someone to bring Chen'er back. ”
"But ......"
The imperial concubine wanted to say something, but Zhao Zijian obviously didn't want to speak impatiently, so he frowned and got up and flicked his sleeves.
"Chen'er is also my child, a child I have great expectations for, so you don't have to worry about it at all, I will not care about him. Now that I am in the palace, if you are uneasy, go to the temple and beg for him more! ”
Zhao Zijian entered the palace with a cold face and asked to see the emperor.
"Father, I heard that the king of Qingyang in the border city is now confronting the enemy, so the son thinks ......"
Before he finished speaking, he heard the person above slam the table, reached out and threw the quilt in his hand to the ground, and looked at Zhao Zijian with a cold snort, his face was full of coldness.
"What do you think? Why do you think so? Do you think I'm going to be careless enough to do it all over again? Fourth, at least I am still sitting on this throne, and I am not old and confused now! ”
The porcelain cup shattered on the ground in front of Zhao Zijian, and the slag jumped on his face to make a bloody mark, Zhao Zijian clenched his fists and slammed his head directly on the ground, banging.
"Father, the son doesn't dare!"
"Don't dare! What are you not afraid of? I see how bold you are! Take advantage of the plague to win over your subordinates, do you really think I don't know? ”
Zhao Zijian was shocked in his heart, and quickly touched the ground, banging, barely panicking, and a monstrous wave had been set off in his heart.
It turns out that this is because of this?
So my father's attitude towards himself since the last time has also been hot and cold? Even worse than before?
"Father, the sons don't dare, the sons are just ...... Erchen is just ......"
He had the heart to explain that his son was in the border city, so he was more worried and wanted to go over to the two of them to bring it back in person, but thinking of what his father had just said, he immediately tightened his heart, gritted his teeth, and threw the idea of his money out of his mind.
"It's nothing, father, the son just wants to share his father's worries, but he doesn't want to use the wrong method. As for what my father said about contacting the minister during the plague, there really wasn't. Please ask my father to take a look. ”
He spoke firmly, and the Emperor gave him an unkind look and sneered.
"Even if there is, you can swallow it in my stomach for me. I'm not afraid to tell you that I have too many sons, and it's okay if you don't. ”
Zhao Zijian's face changed, he quickly raised his eyes and looked at the emperor, he couldn't help but shudder fiercely, his face turned pale, he quickly grabbed the ground with his head, and hurriedly spoke.
"Father, the sons don't dare, the sons don't dare!"
The Emperor withdrew his cloudy eyes in disdain and waved at him.
"If it's all right, let's go back! It's okay, don't go into the palace and dangle in front of me. ”
Zhao Zijian laughed strongly, and was about to withdraw with a bow, when he saw someone rushing in in a hurry, and even the eunuch's singing did not catch up.
"Report, eight hundred miles urgent."
Zhao Zijian's face changed again, and now the only place where the entire Apocalypse can be used for eight hundred miles to expedite is probably the border city, he knows that it is best for him to leave at this time, but because he is worried about his son, he has not moved.
"Pick it up!"
The Emperor glanced at him coldly, and asked him to hand him the fold.
"Humph! Zhao Yiyan is a useless waste! ”
After reading this, the emperor's face turned red, and he threw the things in his hand on the ground in anger.
Everyone knelt down directly and opened their mouths tremblingly.
"Your Majesty, please calm your anger!"
"Your Majesty, please calm your anger!"
……
Zhao Zijian also walked back and knelt down towards the emperor, but he glanced at the emperor suspiciously, pursed his lips and picked up the fold in his hand, when he saw that Zhao Yiyan's 300,000 army above was suddenly defeated, he couldn't help but have a fishy sweet taste in his throat, his eyes were dark, and he almost fainted to the ground.
"Father, what are you going to do?"
With great difficulty, he looked at the emperor with a pale face, and told the reason why he had been hiding it before.
"The son of the Erchen family is still in the border city."
The emperor couldn't help frowning and looking at him, his eyes were full of exploration and suspicion, he must be that the prince of the world is not an ordinary person, if he is sent to the border city......
Is it difficult to be a proton?
"Hmph, fourth, you can tell me a good story. What is there in the border city that allows you to send your little son over? If you answer today to make up one, two, three, you won't go home today! ”
Zhao Zijian closed his eyes fiercely, bit his lip tightly, and only after taking a deep breath did he tell him about going to the border city to see Zhongli before, and focused on Zhongli's surprising place.
Zhongli?
The emperor squinted at Zhao Yiyan with cloudy eyes, but muttered in his heart.
Zhao Zijian was afraid that the emperor would not believe him, so he hurriedly told Zhongli about his academic ability, focusing on the books Zhongli gave him.
"You say he hasn't won the title this year? It's ridiculous! Nonsense! ”
Zhao Zijian shook his head, his eyes shining.
"Father, it's not like that. Erchen is also worried that he is the kind of person who sells his reputation and reputation, and Erchen is also worried that he has bad intentions, but this is not the case at all. It was precisely because of him that Erchen decided to take a risk and let her enlighten Chen'er. But ......"
He smiled bitterly and shook his head at the Emperor.
"But Erchen didn't expect it for a long time, not long after Chen'er, the border city was ......."
The emperor's cloudy eyes stared at Zhao Zijian for a long time, and then he shook his head at him expressionlessly.
"Well, I got it! You go down first! ”
Zhao Zijian opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but looking at the emperor's appearance, he could only swallow all the words that had reached his mouth into his stomach.
He pulled out a smile with difficulty, and bowed his back and stepped away.
But he didn't know that after he left, the emperor squinted his eyes and suddenly spoke.
"Someone, go and check for me! I don't know when the Apocalypse actually produced such a little prodigy! ”
Zhao Zijian went out and happened to see the prince Zhao Zilin, who seemed to have been waiting for a long time, outside.
