In the White Crane Temple, the emperor had already seen Qin Xiulian and comforted her kindly. After that, he asked the imperial doctor who came with him to take Qin Xiulian's pulse well.

The imperial doctor said that Qin Xiulian was fine, but she was too frightened, and she just drank a few servings of soothing soup.

The emperor was also worried that Qin Xiulian would not be able to sleep well at night because of excessive fright, and specially asked the Taoist chief of the White Crane Temple to give Qin Xiulian a tranquilizing talisman, so that Qin Xiulian could sleep well at night.

He also ordered a thorough investigation of this assassination, so that Sun Kui must find out the real mastermind behind this assassination, no matter who it was.

When the emperor arrived at the White Crane Temple, it was noon. After appeasing Qin Xiulian, he had lunch in the White Crane Temple.

Zhao Yao originally thought that he would have lunch with the emperor and Qin Xiulian, but he didn't expect that there would be no Qin Xiulian.

Seeing Zhao Yao looking around, the emperor raised his hand and tapped his little head: "What are you looking at?" ”

"Where's the concubine?" Zhao Yao asked very bluntly, "Won't she dine with us?" ”

"Why did she dine with us?" The emperor glanced at Zhao Yao, "She's not your mother." ”

It seems to make a lot of sense, but it seems to be a little wrong.

"The food at the White Crane Temple is good."

Hearing the emperor's words, Zhao Yao's attention immediately shifted to fasting.

Father and son sat cross-legged on the floor facing each other, with a low table in front of them.

Before the emperor dined, there was a special eunuch to try the dishes, and after confirming that it was not poisonous, the emperor had dinner with his youngest son.

The emperor first served Zhao Yao with vegetables, and when Zhao Yao saw this, his heart suddenly rose vigilant.

"Eat, what are you doing watching me do like this?"

"Father, you didn't poison the dish." Zhao Yao looked at the dishes in the bowl and said with a wary face, "I won't eat it and have diarrhea." He was once so pitted by the emperor.

When the emperor heard Zhao Yao say this, he raised his eyebrows lightly, and said gloomily: "You will die if you eat it, why, dare you eat it?" ”

Zhao Yao was shocked and said: "Stinky father, the tiger poison does not eat children." ”

The emperor angrily picked up a dish with chopsticks and stuffed it into Zhao Yao's small mouth, "Stinky boy, let's eat."

When Sun Kui saw this scene, he was really worried that the emperor's chopsticks would pierce Zhao Yao's throat.

The emperor has a sense of proportion in his hands, and he will not hurt Zhao Yao.

Zhao Yao ate a few bites and found that the taste of Baiheguan's food was really good, and his clear eyes suddenly became bright.

"Does it taste like the Ten Highnesses?"

Zhao Yao nodded again and again and said, "It's delicious." After saying that, he picked up the food and ate it himself.

The emperor looked at him like this, and asked in a strange way: "Aren't you afraid of being poisonous?" ”

"Stinky father, if you poison me again, I will sue my mother." Although it is useless to sue the mother, you have to sue.

The emperor snorted lightly, "Do you think I am afraid of your mother? ”

Sun Kui on the side said silently in his heart: Your Majesty, aren't you afraid?

Zhao Yao glared fiercely, and then picked up a plate of dishes in front of the emperor in a huff, and used chopsticks to drive half of the dishes into his bowl.

When the emperor saw Zhao Yao snatching his food to eat, he glared at him angrily, and immediately grabbed the food in front of him to eat.

Sun Kui saw that the emperor's father and son staged a scene of grabbing vegetables, and thought to himself that it was fortunate that the concubine did not dine together, otherwise he would be disappointed when he saw the emperor's appearance.

"Stinky father, you are the emperor, how can you rob your son's food?"

"I'm your old man, why can't I rob your food?"

"Stinky father, you are shameless."

"Stinky boy, I'm your son, you have to let you be your son."

"You've snatched all my dishes, how can I let you." Zhao Yao shouted angrily, "How can you do this." ”

"Everyone grabs the vegetables to eat according to their ability, whoever grabs it eats, who makes you incapable."

"Stinky Father......

Sun Kui, who was standing on the side, saw that the emperor and their father and son were fighting in order to grab food, so he silently twisted his head to the side and stopped looking. He was afraid that if he continued to look at it, he would ......

Sun Kun sighed in his heart again: Fortunately, Concubine Ying is not here!

At this lunch, Zhao Yao was very tired and felt that he had not eaten enough.

The Emperor ate very happily, and was very full.

After lunch, seeing the emperor's smug face, Zhao Yao couldn't get angry, so he threw himself at him.

The emperor stretched out his hand to scratch Zhao Yao's limb socket, and Zhao Yao, who scratched it, laughed.

Zhao Yao also reached out to scratch the emperor's itch, but the emperor was not afraid of itching, he could only scratch the emperor's face and ears.

The emperor retaliated and reached out to push up Zhao Yao's small nose and joked that he was a pig. also asked Zhao Yao to learn two pig barks.

"Stinky father, if I were a pig, you would be an old pig." Zhao Yao shouted angrily, "It's still a cheeky old pig." ”

The emperor picked up Zhao Yao and lay on his legs, then raised his hand and patted Zhao Yao's little buttocks.

"Stinky boy, dare to scold you Lao Tzu."

"It's you who blame yourself." After Zhao Yao finished speaking, he lowered his head and opened his mouth to bite the emperor's thigh.

"Ouch, stinky boy, are you a bitch?"

Father and son hugged each other again and scuffled.

Sun Kui saw that Zhao Yao's feet were kicked in the emperor's face, and saw the emperor's big hands kneading Zhao Yao's delicate little face into various strange shapes.

Then, the father and son staged that you bite me, and I bite you.

I can't bear to look at it!

I really can't bear to look at it directly!

Fortunately, he was the only one who saw it, and the others didn't! The great image of the emperor has been maintained!

Zhao Yao fought with the emperor for a while, got tired, and lay on the emperor's legs and panted.

The emperor's face was not red or panting, and he raised his hand and gently patted his youngest son's back.

Zhao Yao lay on the emperor's lap and fell asleep after a while.

The emperor changed his posture and held Zhao Yao in his arms. When he looked down and saw that his youngest son was really asleep, he couldn't help but chuckle and said, "If you say sleep, you can sleep, it's not a pig." ”

Sun Kui said silently in his heart: Your Majesty, you scolded yourself again.

Zhao Yao's little face was flushed because of Fang Cai's playfulness, which made him look even more cute.

The emperor reached out and gently twitched Zhao Yao's little face. Zhao Yao rolled over and buried his little face in the emperor's arms.

Sun Kui was afraid of waking Zhao Yao, so he said very quietly: "Your Majesty, the slave maid should go down to rest with the Ten Highnesses." ”

"Wait a minute." As he spoke, the emperor gently patted Zhao Yao's back, "When he is asleep, I will carry him down." ”

"Yes." Sun Kui stepped aside again. He saw that the emperor's posture of holding the child was accurate, and let His Highness Ten sleep comfortably. Also, the emperor's eyes were full of love when he saw His Royal Highness Ten.

The current emperor is completely a loving father, where is there the appearance of being unserious just now.

"Your Majesty, you obviously love His Highness Ten so much, why do you bully and tease His Highness Ten every time?" Sun Kui still couldn't hold back and asked the doubts that had been hidden in his heart for a long time.

"Didn't I say it, my son is just bullying him." The Emperor smiled and said, "You see how fun it is to bully him." ”

Sun Kui: "...... Your Majesty, if you are like this, His Royal Highness will hate you more and more. ”

"I'm such a good father, how could Xiao Shi hate me."

Sun Kui: "...... Emperor, didn't you notice that His Royal Highness the Tenth called you "Stinky Father Emperor"?

The emperor looked down at his little son, who was sleeping soundly in his arms, and his eyes were full of love. Then, he got up and went to the next room, and put Zhao Yao on the bed very lightly. carefully covered Zhao Yao with a quilt.

Zhao Yao opened his eyes in a daze, saw the emperor, and scolded with a small mouth: "Stinky father" After speaking, he rolled over and rolled into the bed.

When the emperor heard this, he scolded amusefully and dotingly: "Stinky boy." ”

He walked out of the house and instructed Tongxi, "Take care of Xiao Shi." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The Emperor turned and went to another room.

An old crane-haired man in a Taoist robe was waiting for the emperor. When he saw the emperor coming, he hurriedly got up and saluted the emperor.

"See the emperor."

The emperor stepped forward and personally helped the old man up.

"Master, you don't need to be polite."

The old man smiled slightly: "Your Majesty, the ceremony cannot be abolished." ”

The emperor invited the old man to sit down, and he sat down opposite the old man.

Sun Kui hurriedly brought tea.

The emperor personally poured a cup of tea for the old man, and immediately brought it to the old man with both hands.

"Master, please use tea."

"Your Majesty, you're welcome." The old man took the teacup and lowered his head to take a few sips of tea.

The emperor drank tea and looked at the old man opposite.

"After more than 20 years, the master is still the same as back then, and there is no change." The emperor and the old man are old acquaintances, and the last time they met was more than twenty years ago.

"The emperor is different." The old man smiled kindly, "The emperor's eyes are much more resolute than they were more than ten years ago. "More than twenty years ago, when the old man saw the emperor, there was a trace of confusion in the emperor's eyes.

"More than 20 years ago, I never thought of being the emperor of the Great Zhou, but now that I am the emperor of the Great Zhou, my eyes are naturally different."

"Lao Dao said back then that you were the true dragon emperor, but you scolded Lao Dao at that time."

mentioned the events of that year, the emperor couldn't help but smile: "At that time, the eldest brother was still alive, master, you said that I am the true dragon emperor, I will definitely be angry." ”

"Master, you didn't tell me that something would happen to my eldest brother at that time."

"Heaven must not be divulged." The old man said.

"Then why did you reveal that I would be the emperor?"

"Because at that time you didn't want to bear the burden of all beings in the world." The old man said kindly, "Lao Dao was worried about you before. ”

"Worried that I won't be able to do this emperor?"

The old man smiled and did not speak.

"Is the master relieved now?" The Emperor asked with a smile.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, you are a good king who loves the people like a son." The old man's expression suddenly became very serious, "The people of this Great Zhou are fortunate to have a good emperor like you." ”

Hearing the old man praise him like this, the emperor was a little flattered and said: "Don't dare to be, I just did what I had to do, but I didn't do it well enough." "Da Zhou has just begun, and he still has a lot of things to do." Master, do you remember what you said to me back then? ”

"Yes." The old man smiled and said, "The Great Zhou will welcome an emperor who will bring peace and prosperity in the future. ”

"If I'm not wrong, the emperor you said brought peace and prosperity is not me, but my son, right?"

The old man did not answer the emperor's question directly, but asked with a smile: "Your Majesty, why don't you think that you brought peace and prosperity to the Great Zhou?" ”

"If I live long, maybe it will bring prosperity to the Great Zhou, but I can't live too long." The emperor seems to be cynical, but in fact, his heart is like a mirror. "What I can bring to Da Zhou is peace, but now the world is not completely peaceful, but before I die, Da Zhou will be completely peaceful." The emperor still has this confidence.

"It is precisely because of this that your son will bring prosperity to the Great Zhou." The old man looked at the emperor with appreciation, "Today's Great Zhou is thriving, and this is all your merits, Your Majesty." ”

"Sure enough, it's my son." The emperor deliberately asked, "Which son is it?" ”

The old man smiled and said, "Your Majesty, didn't you already have a number in your heart?" ”

The emperor pretended to have an expression of "I don't know anything", "The master thinks highly of me, and I don't know how to look at my face, how can I know which son it is me." ”

"Your Majesty, why didn't you bring His Highness?"

"Master, you know again?"

The old man didn't speak, smiling.

"He's asleep."

"Then the old way will go up with the emperor to have a look."

Seeing that the old man was so positive, the emperor was a little surprised: "Master, are you so enthusiastic?" ”

The old man glanced at the emperor deeply, and then said with a deep face: "The old man came here for this matter. ”

This sentence made the emperor a little surprised: "The master did not come to the capital this time to see me, but to see Xiao Shi?" ”

"Exactly." The old man stood up and said, "Please ask the emperor to lead the way." ”

The emperor glanced at the old man suspiciously, and immediately took him to see Zhao Yao, who was taking a nap.

The old man sat on the edge of the bed, staring at the sweet Zhao Yao who was sleeping with burning eyes. After a few moments, he got up and left the room.

The Emperor and the old man returned to the same room as before. The emperor hurriedly asked, "How?" ”

The old man said meaninglessly: "The time is not yet ripe. ”

The emperor understood what the old man meant, nodded and said in agreement: "He is still young now, and the time is indeed not ripe. ”

"Your Majesty, Your Highness the Tenth is the same as you were back then." The old man smiled, "Your father and son are very similar. ”

"Xiao Shi is indeed the most like me." The emperor shook the teacup in his hand slightly, and the golden and bright tea swayed gently in the teacup, "So, I want him to do what he wants to do." "He can't do what he wants in this life, so he hopes that Xiao Ten can do what he wants.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Ten has a mission in this world, and he has to bear the heavy responsibility of the people in the world like you." The old man said, "Even if you don't want His Highness Ten to bear the responsibility of the people in the world, God will still let His Highness Ten bear it, because this is his mission to come to this world." ”

"As an emperor, I naturally hope that my son can be an excellent and good emperor and really bring prosperity to the Great Zhou." The Emperor said, sighing softly, "As a father, I want him to live freely and happily. ”

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Ten can't escape his fate." Lao Dao said meaningfully, "Since the illness of His Royal Highness Tenth last year, his fate has been sealed, and no one can reverse it. ”

The emperor didn't expect the old man to know that Zhao Yao was seriously ill last year. He was very surprised: "Master, how do you know that Xiao Shi was sick last year?" ”

The old man did not answer, but looked at the emperor quietly.

The emperor suddenly thought of something, and he asked with a somewhat bad face: "So, Xiao Shi's serious illness last year was also fate?" ”

"Exactly." The old man said again, "The fate of the Ten Highnesses has also changed because of this. ”

When the emperor heard the old man's words, it suddenly occurred to him that his youngest son had become much wiser since he had fallen ill last year, and that he had made many shocking good things since this year.

"Little Shi, he ......" Liang Zhaoyi did not tell the emperor that Zhao Yao was dreaming, after all, this kind of thing was too unbelievable.

The old man said, "It's still your son, His Highness the Ten." ”

The emperor didn't understand what the old man meant by this, and felt that his words were quite inexplicable: "Of course, Xiao Shi is my son. ”

"Your Majesty, before the time is ripe, it is not appropriate for His Royal Highness Ten to stay in the capital." The old man reminded the emperor, "When His Highness is an adult and crowned king, let His Highness stay away from the capital, and His Highness will do many amazing things at that time." ”

The emperor raised his eyebrows and asked in astonishment, "Away from the capital?" ”

The old man bowed slightly: "Yes, the farther away the better!" ”

The emperor wanted to ask something more, but the old man changed the topic and talked about other things, no longer talking about Zhao Yao.

There is also a shift in the evening.

Zhao Yao: There is a father who grabs food with his son, and he is really tired.

Emperor Wu of Zhou: I'm very happy.

Zhao Yao: (╯‵□′)╯(┻━┻
