After marrying the heirless prince, I gave birth to three children

Although Xiao Hong couldn't refuse, he was really unwilling to give in. His eyes were moving very quickly at this moment, trying to find an excuse.

Xiao Ji didn't give him a chance and asked directly: "Why? Second brother is unwilling to take care of father?"

Xiao Hong gritted his teeth and squeezed out a word, "Royal brother is really good at joking, why would I be unwilling?"

"I'm just... so happy!"

Xiao Ji nodded. "I'm very happy that you think so. I feel relieved to have you taking care of my father."

A farce ended just like that.

Xiao Ji had almost finished discussing matters with Cheng Fengqi and others, so he asked everyone to leave.

Only Xie Yao was left.

Xie Yao noticed that when Li Dajian left, his expression was a little complicated, as if he was worried about something, and there was a hint of deep meaning in his eyes.

"Yaoyao."

Her thoughts were pulled back by Xiao Ji's voice, "I'm sorry for wronging you."

Xie Yao quickly understood that Xiao Ji was probably talking about Xiao Hong. She shook her head slightly, "What does this have to do with Your Highness? What is Your Highness apologizing for?"

Xiao Ji looked frankly, "I couldn't get revenge for Yaoyao..."

If it were someone else, he would have dealt with him directly, but for Xiao Hong... at least he couldn't do it openly.

Xie Yao smiled. "A gentleman's revenge is never too late, and it won't take us ten years, right?"

Xiao Ji nodded, "Yaoyao, wait a minute."

Xiao Hong's behavior clearly showed that he did not take his brother seriously and had no respect for him or Yaoyao.

In that case, he doesn't need to show mercy!

"Okay." Xie Yao's eyes curved as she took Xiao Ji's arm and said, "I'll wait for Your Highness to help me vent my anger."

Judging from Xiao Hong's performance today, he was extremely proud. If he had a tail, it would probably be in the sky right now.

But the emperor's move...

Xie Yao said, "Your Highness, judging from the expression on Li Dajian's face just now, I'm afraid he really doesn't know about this."

As the chief eunuch of the emperor's entourage, and a trusted confidant who had served him for decades, Li Dajian had no idea that the emperor had secretly prepared such an order. Instead, another young eunuch in the imperial service knew...

This is very interesting.

Xiao Ji nodded, "I've noticed it too. It seems our father doesn't completely trust Li Dajian."

Xie Yao thought the same thing, and she also thought of another thing, "Your Highness, perhaps this matter... is related to us."

"During the three days you were unconscious, my father suggested bringing Zhao Zhao Sui Sui into the palace. It was Eunuch Li who gave me the advantage that time, allowing me to ask my aunt for help and keep Zhao Zhao Sui Sui."

"Could it be... that the Emperor knows about this?"

Xie Yao continued, "Eunuch Li said he would help us because of his relationship with the Queen Mother."

Regardless of whether the emperor knew about the incident or not, it was true that he no longer trusted Li Dajian as much.

"Your Highness," Xie Yao said, "This is also an opportunity."

Xiao Ji understood what Xie Yao meant from her few words and nodded. "I will pay attention."

Xie Yao hummed, and then continued, "Someone went to the Second Prince's mansion late last night, met with him secretly, and gave him something that he really wanted."

"This is the news I received when I just returned to the Prince's Mansion today. Now it seems that extremely rare thing is the imperial edict." Xie Yao's voice was slightly regretful. "If I had known earlier, perhaps..."

"Yaoyao." Xiao Ji held Xie Yao's hand, "It's a good thing I didn't know earlier."

"what?"

Xie Yao was a little confused.

Xiao Ji asked, "Did Yaoyao really think that the imperial edict was written a month in advance?"

Xie Yao suddenly looked at Xiao Ji, "Your Highness means..."

"It's just a guess." Xiao Ji said, "Now is not the time."

Xie Yao nodded, "I understand."

"Don't worry, Your Highness. I won't do anything rash." Xie Yao said, then looked at Xiao Ji and said, "Your Highness, I'm not in a hurry."

Xiao Ji looked at Xie Yao's serious expression, and his heart softened. He lowered his head and kissed her forehead, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

……

at the same time.

Since Xiao Hong entered the palace, Xiao Ji did not let him sit idle and directly had him taken to the main hall of the Yangxin Palace.

There is no need to waste time on such an important matter as taking care of the emperor, start now.

Hall of Mental Cultivation, the main hall.

The emperor was still lying in bed. Xiao Hong could no longer laugh after being arranged to do this by Xiao Ji.

He sat down beside the emperor's bed with a stern face.

"Father, oh, father." Xiao Hong sighed and took the emperor's hand and asked, "When will you wake up?"

"It's not a good idea for you to keep lying down like this." Xiao Hong didn't realize that his voice had already become somewhat complaining. "You don't know how arrogant Xiao Ji was after you fell unconscious. He actually asked me, your most beloved son, to serve you..."

Xiao Hong paused at this point, as if he also felt something was wrong. "I'm not saying I can't serve you, it's just... I'm the one who should do big things."

"I also want to share your worries..."

Xiao Hong stopped talking as he thought of something else.

He looked at the unconscious emperor, his eyes turned, and he stood up and walked out, even forgetting that the emperor's hand, which he had pulled out, was still outside the quilt.
