Vol 2 Chapter 818: Friendship with Brother Yu (13 more)

Emperor Wen De flipped through the roster of the new branch of Jinshi.
"Shanhe Academy actually made the list 31. Have you checked the exam papers of these people?"
"Your Majesty Qi, I have reviewed all of them several times and there is absolutely no problem."
Emperor Wen De hummed, "It seems that the teacher at Shanhe Academy still has one or two teaching skills."
When the voice fell, Emperor Wen De suddenly laughed.
I heard him say: "Shanhe Academy is on the list, and 20 of them are from small families. Even Tanhua Yang Ji is from an ordinary family. Yes, yes. Shanhe Academy is indeed created for ordinary students. A road to promotion has not disappointed my high expectations of Shanhe Academy."
Chang En's eyebrows opened and smiled, "Congratulations, Your Majesty, Your Majesty Hexi. The court has added a few hundred more talents."
Emperor Wende smiled and said, "This matter is indeed worth celebrating."
The way Emperor Wende celebrated was to favor the beauties who entered the palace.
New faces have been added to the harem.
Men are greedy for freshness, and the emperor is among them.
New faces get favored, and old faces naturally lose favor.
Those with children are better, at least to rely on.
The harem concubine without children is more miserable.
Without the emperor's favor, his appearance was aging day by day, and there was almost no hope of turning over in the days to come.
...
Madam Xiao came to the harem to meet Xiao Zhaoyi and talked to her about the Xiao family.
Xiao Zhaoyi listened patiently and suddenly asked Xiao Qin'er.
"I haven't seen my sister for a while, I don't know if she is good. Has my mother seen her recently?"
Mrs. Xiao nodded, "I have met both sides. She has just bought a new house and asked the Ministry of Engineering to repair and decorate. She is preparing for the move every day. I told her that when she moves out of the palace, she must arrange for her to fight in every important place. Reason. Don't let the concubines of your Highness control the mansion.
Originally, I arranged a few proper people for her, but she refused to ask for it. She said she would go to Shaofu and pick the right person by herself. I looked, she was a servant of Xiao family. "
Xiao Zhaoyi raised her eyebrows and smiled, "I am afraid not only to look down on the servants of the Xiao family, but also to guard against the Xiao family."
"Guarding the Xiao family?" Madam Xiao frowned, "No! Qin'er is the most lover of the family, and she often takes the children back to her family for two days. How can she guard her family. You must have misunderstood."
Xiao Zhaoyi smiled, "If my elder sister didn't guard her mother's family, why would she refuse to accept her mother's preparation for her? Of course, it is also possible that I thought too much and wronged my sister."
Mrs. Xiao's brows were frowned and she was a little sad. I don't know if I should believe my own judgment or what Xiao Zhaoyi said.
Xiao Zhaoyi sighed, "I don't lie to my mother. My sister and I have never spoken since we had a trouble last time. Every time she enters the palace, she only goes to Weiyang Palace and never comes to me. If you want to see her, you have to go to Weiyang Palace. My sister has a great resentment towards me. I hate the house and Wu, and it's not surprising that I hate my mother's family."
Mrs. Xiao did not want to believe what Xiao Zhaoyi said, and quickly explained to Xiao Qin'er, "Don't think too much about it. I understand Qin'er. How could she resent her parents? There must be some misunderstanding in it."
Xiao Zhaoyi looked sad, "I hope I misunderstood my sister. She is really busy, not avoiding me on purpose."
Madam Xiao turned to comfort Xiao Zhaoyi, "When I see her, I will have a good talk with her. You are two sisters, and you should support each other."
Xiao Zhaoyi smiled, "Thank you mother. I hope my mother can solve the misunderstanding between my sister and me."
Mrs. Xiao was worried.
She asked, "How are the Nine Princes getting along with Brother Zheng?"
Xiao Zhaoyi smiled bitterly, "It's not good not to dare to deceive my mother."
"How come?" Madam Xiao was anxious.
Xiao Zhaoyi sighed, "I don't know why the two children can't get along with each other. Liu Zheng gets along very well with Liu Yu, who is from His Highness's family."
Mrs. Xiao frowned when she heard it.
Xiao Zhaoyi turned her head and advised her not to worry.
How could Mrs. Xiao not worry.
Xiao Qin'er had a conflict with Xiao Zhaoyi, and the children of the two couldn't get along well either.
Mrs. Xiao is almost dying of worry.
After leaving the palace, after thinking about it, he turned to the palace.
"Is Mrs. Yi here?"
"The fourth lady went out early in the morning. This should be at the new house."
Mrs. Xiao told the coachman to turn to the new house Xiao Qin'er bought, which was three blocks away from the palace.
The huge mansion is undergoing renovation and repair, and it is messy.
Xiao Qin'er did not dislike it, but was very interested.
At two ends in three days, she always has to come and take a look.
Every time I come, I will find new changes.
It was spring when Xiao Qin'er ordered his servants to arrange the garden and plant flowers and plants.
Until next year, the garden will be full of flowers.
At that time, hold a flower viewing banquet in the mansion and invite all friends and family over.
When she thinks of that scene, as the only hostess, she greets the guests, and she feels happy.
The servant reports that Mrs. Xiao is here.
"Why did my mother come here? Hurry up and invite her in, and I will show her around."
Madam Xiao was led to the messy garden, and she was in a bad mood.
"There are people staring here, why are you running here too?"
Xiao Qin'er said with a smile, "I have nothing to do anyway, just come and have a look."
Mrs. Xiao sighed.
She took Xiao Qin'er to a secluded place.
"I went to the palace to visit Empress Zhaoyi today. She told me that she missed you very much, when would you have time to go to the palace to see her."
Xiao Qin'er sneered, "Mother doesn't have to decorate her peace. Did she file a complaint in front of you, saying that I deliberately avoided her?"
"Then did you deliberately avoid her?" Madam Xiao's question was straightforward and unprepared.
Xiao Qin'er's eyes seemed erratic for a moment.
Soon, she calmed down again.
"I don't want to see her face."
"You are sisters." Mrs. Xiao was almost anxious.
Xiao Qin'er raised her eyebrows, "Whatever. I didn't provoke her. She had better not worry about me."
"You let me tell you what is good." Madam Xiao sighed.
"Mother, look at how my garden is arranged?"
How can Mrs. Xiao care about the garden?
She asked: "I heard that Zheng Zheng is at odds with the Ninth Prince, but he has a better relationship with Liu Yu. You can't imagine a way to manage Zheng Zheng?"
"Why do you want to control Zheng Brother, I think he is very good, there is nothing wrong with him."
"He and the Nine Princes..."
"He is him, and the nine princes are the ninth princes. Mother, one of them is the prince and the other is the grandson. It is better not to have more contact."
Madam Xiao's brows were tense, and she could hardly believe her ears.
"Manny Zhaoyi said that you had prejudices against her, I still don't believe it. Now it seems that she has not wronged you."
Xiao Qin'er sneered, "Mother, if you don't mention Empress Zhaoyi, your daughter can still entertain you well. Speaking of Empress Zhaoyi, I forgive my daughter for not being with me."
"Why your sisters are doing this, even the children are affected."
Madam Xiao was off by Xiao Qin'er.
Back at home, she and her husband, Mrs. Xiao, murmured.
After hearing what happened, Master Xiao was silent for a long time.
Finally, he said, "That's good. A prince, a grandson, really shouldn't be too close to each other. One person, one position, not necessarily bad."
"How can the master say that, they are sisters."
"What about your sisters? You and your sisters have not been in contact for many years."
Mrs. Xiao was speechless and was so speechless that she was blocked.
Master Xiao said again: "Manny Zhaoyi has her own ideas, and Qin'er has her own ideas. Let them toss. They know how to measure!"
Properly?
Ha ha!
These two sisters have no sense at all, okay?
...
Xiao Qin'er's face was gloomy, and she didn't want to continue to serve the garden.
She returned to the palace and called Liu Zheng to the front.
"You and the Ninth Prince are still in class together?"
"Yes! Why did my mother suddenly ask about this."
"Where is Liu Yu? Are you with you?"
Liu Zheng shook his head. "Mr. Yu said that he has a deep learning level and it was too late to go to class with us. We opened another class for him."
Xiao Qin'er frowned slightly, "Why do you still have a class with the Ninth Prince, but Yu Ge can ask her husband to start another class?"
Liu Zheng suddenly felt guilty, "Son, my son remembered that he still hadn't done his homework, so he will go now..."
While pointing at the door, he retreated outside the door, ready to run away at any time.
Xiao Qin'er said twice, "Stop! Am I allowed to leave?"
Liu Zheng wanted to cry.
But he was already a man and couldn't cry.
Can only hold back the tears.
Xiao Qin'er took a deep breath and calmed down a bit, "In the future, keep me away from the Ninth Prince."
Liu Zheng nodded again and again, "The mother doesn't need to tell, and the son will stay away from him."
Xiao Qin'er said again: "Stay away from Brother Yu."
"Why?" Liu Zheng was dissatisfied.
Xiao Qin'er sternly said, "What else can you do. You are just cousins, not real brothers. Brothers have to settle accounts, let alone cousins."
"Brother Yu is different."
"It's no different. He learns well, you learn poorly, don't you feel inferior with him?"
What a shame!
Liu Zheng looked eager to cry without tears.
Xiao Qin'er sighed, "It's not that you are going to stay away from Yu brother immediately, just go out and play with him if you have nothing to do. You have to learn more skills, don't you say you want to protect your sister, don't learn more skills, How do you protect your sister?"
Liu Zheng retorted: "My younger sister is the emperor's granddaughter, no one dares to bully her."
"Others dare not bully the emperor's granddaughter, but what if the emperor's granddaughter bullies the emperor's granddaughter? What if the emperor's granddaughter bullies the emperor's granddaughter? Can you just watch your sister being bullied?"
Liu Zheng shook his head like a rattle.
"My sister was bullied by another emperor's granddaughter, how can you help her?"
This question puzzled Liu Zheng.
Xiao Qin'er said earnestly: "So you have to learn more skills. Only after you learn the skills can you be able to protect your sister. To protect your sister, you can't just say it, you have to take action."
Liu Zheng asked in a crying voice: "Can't my son play with Brother Yu?"
Xiao Qin'er touched the child's head, "You can play with him, but don't delay business. As far as I know, Brother Yu came to play with you, but he has never missed his homework. Can you do it? If you promise not to If you miss your homework, your mother will allow you to continue playing with him."
"My son promises not to miss his homework." Liu Zheng took an oath, and there was a smile in his eyes.
"Okay! But I will supervise you. If you can't do it, then you can't play with Yu brother."
"Son must do it."
For his sister, for the royal brother, he can definitely do it.
