Chapter 411 The Emperor and King Yu
Chapter 411 The Emperor and King Yu
Although they said they were going out to play, they were actually just strolling around the area. The little sister took little Yining for a walk, stopping to admire the picturesque scenery that the palace people had carefully taken care of.
Sheng Hongtong followed them slowly, staring at the little girl walking in front of him, waiting for her to make a mistake so that he could give her a good lesson.
The gaze was too strong. Xiao Yining turned back to look at him from time to time, and then was glared at by this person.
Xiao Yining: Emmm, this naughty kid, huh!
"What did I say? You can't interrupt when adults are doing something. You are young and don't understand. You've gotten yourself into trouble!" Liu Zhenying also turned to glance sideways, and as expected, she was met with the unfriendly gaze of the naughty child.
When the naughty kid chased out just now, they all bowed, but the guy told them to ignore him and go play by themselves. If Pei Yi hadn't been in the middle, they really couldn't move freely.
"It's okay, it's okay. Sister Yining just needs to go over and admit her mistake later. After all, she is young and doesn't know so much." Yan Kexin said generously.
"Don't be afraid, Sister Yining. My great-grandfather is here too. If the second prince bullies you, he will help you." Chen Jiaoyi also whispered to comfort her.
After hearing what her older sister said, the little girl curled her lips, turned around quickly, and glared at the naughty child provocatively.
Sheng Hongtong: ...
The naughty kid was immediately furious, old grudges and new hatreds surged in his heart, and he quickened his pace and rushed forward like an arrow, shouting, "Lin Yining, how dare you glare at this prince."
The little kid also stopped, put his hands on his hips, and retorted slowly, "Qing Jie'er is just imitating uncle. It's so beautiful when uncle glares at people."
As she spoke, another look of Sheng Hongtong's unique defiant nature appeared on her face, and she continued to glance at the naughty child provocatively.
Everyone:...
Sheng Hongtong braked suddenly, his face changed from red with anger to red with strange emotions, and his momentum was weakened by half. He gritted his teeth and said, "Don't think that I am my father and I will be fooled by your words. This prince will not fall for it."
At the same time, Lin Yinhu, who had caught up, took a look and replied honestly, "Sister Qing has gained weight, so naturally, she will look as good as the Second Prince in everything she does."
Xiao Yining: "Brother Tiger, I'm not fat."
Sheng Hongtong: "Brother Hu, are you blind?"
"Ah? I'm just telling the truth. You two are both good-looking." Lin Yinhu said somewhat aggrievedly.
The two little ones were speechless for a moment.
The melon-eating team looked at each other, and they all felt that their previous worries were really unnecessary.
Just at this moment, a melodious piano sound came from afar. The sound was ethereal and pleasant, like the sound of nature, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Sheng Hongtong faced the direction where the voice came from and frowned.
"Who is playing the piano? My father said there are no concubines in the palace!" Yan Ke said unconsciously.
"They must be actors from the Music Bureau. When they came to the palace, His Majesty gave the ministers many dancing actors. However, my father and mother have a strong bond, so they refused." Liu Zhenying said.
As soon as the words fell, several speechless gazes passed over Liu Zhenying.
At this time, Sheng Hongtong moved, and he walked quietly towards the direction where the sound came from.
Seeing this, Liu Zhenying's eyes flashed with excitement and she quickly gestured for everyone to follow.
The source of the sound was not far from them, just a few turns away.
With the help of the Second Prince, the group walked out of the designated activity area, and the palace guards did not stop them.
Soon, everyone saw the person playing the zither. It was a woman they had never met before. Judging from her dress, she should be the daughter of an official.
In the pavilion not far from her, the Emperor and King Yu were sitting opposite each other, playing chess with full concentration.
The whole scene seemed peaceful and harmonious.
Sheng Hongtong glanced at the back of the woman playing the piano with an unclear expression, and then broke the atmosphere. He shouted loudly, "Father, Lin Yining said she missed you, I brought her to see you!"
Xiao Yining: ⊙▽⊙
The little boy, who was still admiring the woman's beauty, was startled and looked at the lying child in disbelief.
The piano was also frightened by the sudden noise of the naughty child, and the woman broke a string in an instant, making a harsh note.
The woman's face turned pale, she covered her fingers, and knelt on the ground in panic. "Xie Shuyao is not good at learning martial arts, and disturbed the interest of His Majesty. She deserves death."
Sheng Jingchen paused after placing the chess piece. He raised his eyes slightly, glanced indifferently at Xie Shuyao, and then looked at the little girl. He saw her change from astonishment to ecstasy, and she wanted to come over but didn't dare to take a step.
The corners of the emperor's mouth slightly raised, and he said happily, "Qingjie, come to your uncle, your mother is here too."
mother?
Little Yining quickly looked into the pavilion and saw her mother walking out of the pavilion, looking at her with a smile on her face.
The little girl immediately forgave the naughty boy for treating her as a tool, and ran towards her mother with her little legs.
The people who followed also hurried forward and saluted the emperor and King Yu.
Little Yining was picked up by her mother. She called Uncle Grandpa sweetly twice and then asked, "Mom, why are you here?"
Wan Niang put her face close to her daughter and explained, "Yesterday, your second uncle gave you a small gift. I didn't have anything to give you, so I made some cakes to show my appreciation. Just now, I went to Yuhua Palace and learned that your second uncle was there, so I came to look for him."
The little girl's face froze when she heard that, and she quickly turned her gaze to the male protagonist. Sure enough, she saw a plate of cakes quietly placed next to him. Then, she met Zhao Ya's eyes full of help.
Zhao Ya showed a trace of anxiety, her eyes first fixed on her young master, then glanced at the plate of pastries, her intention to save the situation was evident in her words.
Little Yining received her message and smiled, "The cakes made by mom are delicious. Second uncle will definitely like them."
Zhao Ya, who was worried and anxious, said: …
As soon as he said this, Sheng Jingzhan glanced at the mother and daughter, then looked at his expressionless brother, and said, "Wanniang is thoughtful. Brother, would you like to try it? It would be inappropriate for me to enjoy the food alone."
The emperor glanced at the cakes, an imperceptible smile flashed across his eyes, but his tone was a little unhappy, and he refused lightly: "Since it is the intention of the junior, the emperor brother, the emperor brother will accept it himself."
Sheng Jingzhan lowered his eyes and smiled, slowly put down a piece of food, said no more, and casually picked up a piece of cake and put it into his mouth.
At that moment, his expression suddenly froze. He looked up at the mother and daughter who were whispering to each other, then calmly put the food back on the plate and pushed it a little further away.
Sheng Jingzhan touched his jaw. He couldn't even bite the pastry.
The emperor glanced at him lightly, then glanced at the young ladies who had just saluted outside the pavilion, and finally fixed his eyes on Liu Zhenying.
