The ministers begged me to ascend the throne

In the Kunde Hall, Zhao Yao stood obediently with his hands spread out, asking Pan Cairen to give him two figures.

In a few months, Zhao Yao will be crowned king and go to the land, and Pan Cairen wants to do something for him.Pan Cairen didn't have much money herself, and her natal family didn't have much money either.She couldn't give Zhao Yao anything valuable, so she could only make something for Zhao Yao with her own hands.

Growing up, many of Zhao Yao's clothes, shoes, and sachets were made by Pan Cai and Poppy.

Pan Cairen was not favored and had no children. He always regarded Zhao Yao as his own child.Now that Zhao Yao was about to leave the capital and go to the fiefdom, she wanted to take advantage of this time to make some more clothes for Zhao Yao.

"Third concubine, you have made enough clothes for me. I can't even wear them all." Pan Cairen had already made several boxes of clothes and shoes for Zhao Yao.

"It's not enough, I have to make some more for you." Pan Cairen thought of Poppy, his eyes slowly turned red, and his voice became choked, "I want to make it for Sister Yu as well."

When the poppy was mentioned, Liang Bi and Zhao Yao's expressions became sad because the poppy was no longer there.

A few years ago, the fifth princess was discovered by the second princess because she had an affair with the second princess's consort, the youngest son of Marquis Wucheng. The fifth princess was beaten to death by the second princess.

The death of the fifth princess was a great blow to Poppy, and she fell ill from then on.Her illness lasted for several years, and she passed away quietly one night three years ago.

Poppy's death was a big blow to Pan Cairen, and she also fell ill because of it.Fortunately, Liang Bin and Zhao Yao were with her, and she recovered from the grief of losing her good sisters.

"Third Concubine, I'm afraid that you will be tired, and I'm afraid that your eyes will be damaged by exhaustion." Zhao Yao saw Pan Cairen's face full of tears, and took out a handkerchief to wipe the tears on her face, "Third Concubine, I I already have my second mother and concubine, and I don’t want to lose you again. You have to be well."

Hearing what Zhao Yao said, Pan Cairen cried even harder.

"We agreed at the beginning that we would depend on each other until we grow old. But Sister Yu broke her promise..."

Zhao Yao held Pan Cairen in his arms and patted her back gently.

"The third concubine, the second concubine is gone, but the concubine and I are still here. We will always be with you."

"Yes, Yaoyao and I are still here."

"Third Concubine, I will go to the fiefdom in a few months. You and the concubine are the only ones left in the palace. You two have to take care of each other. I will take you and the concubine to the fiefdom for retirement in the future." Zhao Yao smiled. Said, "When the time comes, I will take you and your mother and concubine to travel around and eat all the delicious food in the world."

When Pan Cairen heard what Zhao Yao said, he couldn't help but laugh: "Okay, I'm waiting for you to take my sister and me to eat delicious food all over the world."

Zhao Yao felt relieved when he saw Pan Cai's tears turned into smiles.He said something funny again, which made Pan Cairen laugh non-stop.

After Pan Cairen measured Zhao Yao's figure, he couldn't wait to return to his room and continue making clothes for Zhao Yao.

"Alas, the third concubine has always been brooding over the departure of the second concubine." When Zhao Yao thought about Pan Cairen's life, he couldn't help but feel sorry for her, "If it weren't for us, I'm afraid the third concubine wouldn't be able to survive long ago. Living."

"She has always regarded you as her child, and you are her hope of living." Why do the concubines in the palace desperately want to have children, just to hope that they will have hope in the second half of their lives and the days in the palace? There is hope. "She was lucky and unlucky."

Fortunately, although Pan Cairen was not favored, he had always been protected by Liang Concubine and the others and was not bullied in the palace.Unfortunately, she was trapped in the palace all her life and had no freedom.

"Mother Concubine, after I leave, the Third Mother Concubine can continue to accompany you, so you won't be bored." Zhao Yao felt relieved to have the Third Mother Concubine accompanying Liang Concubine. "In the future, I will take you and the third mother and concubine out of the palace to take care of themselves."

Liang Concubine knew in her heart that she would also be in the palace in the future, as for Pan Cairen.If Pan Cairen wants to leave the palace at that time, she will let Pan Cairen leave the palace.

"Okay, your third wife and I will wait."

"Mother, I have something to do and I will go out of the palace and come back in the evening."

"Where are you going?"

"I'm going to find my second uncle." Zhao Yao promised Liang Bin, "I will definitely return to the palace tonight and will not go to my eighth brother or fourth brother's place."

Liang Bin reminded: "Your father has something to tell you."

"I understand." Zhao Yao estimated that the emperor wanted to tell him about the fiefdom.

"then you go."

"I'm leaving."

When He Lianfang saw Zhao Yao coming, she gave him the letter he had just received.

"Lin Qi's letter."

When Zhao Yao heard that it was Lin Qi's letter, his eyes immediately lit up, and he quickly took the letter from He Lianfang's hand. "Uncle Qi and his friends, everything went well when they went to sea. Didn't any accidents happen?"

"No, everything is going well."

Zhao Yao hurriedly opened the letter, lowered his head and read it carefully.

Lin Qi's handwriting was very sloppy and he wrote a lot of words eloquently. Most of them were about his experiences at sea. Finally, he said that they were going very smoothly at sea so far, and they had not encountered evil winds or huge waves.If everything goes smoothly, we will arrive in Japan in half a month.

"It seems that before I go to Lingnan, Uncle Qi and the others can find mountains of gold and silver in the Japanese country." Zhao Yao laughed, a bit treacherously and slyly, "If Uncle Qi and the others move fast enough, maybe I will be able to find them by the end of the year." I can receive a lot of gold and silver."

"You have a beautiful idea." He Lianfang felt that it was unlikely to receive gold and silver from Japan at the end of the year. After all, mining takes time.

"If you don't receive it at the end of this year, you will definitely receive it next year." Zhao Yao touched his chin and looked thoughtful, "Next year...Second uncle, how about I go to Japan next year to see the Jinshan and Silver Mountains in person? Shan, when the time comes, personally bring the gold and silver back to Dazhou."

"What did you say?" He Lianfang was frightened by Zhao Yao's words, "Are you going to Japan?"

"Can't you?" Zhao Yao blinked and said, "I think I need to go and see for myself... Oops..." Before Zhao Yao could finish speaking, his head was hit hard by the book thrown by He Lianfang. Suddenly, he cried out in pain.

"Second uncle, how many times have I told you not to hit your head, or you will become stupid."

He Lianfang said nothing and looked at Zhao Yao coldly.

Zhao Yao's heart went crazy when he saw He Lianfang.He hurriedly raised his hand and smiled flatteringly at He Lianfang: "Haha, I was just joking. I won't have time to go to Japan next year."

"If you dare to go to Japan next year, I will break your legs." He Lianfang knew that what Zhao Yao just said was not a joke. He knew in his heart that Zhao Yao really wanted to go to Japan.

Seeing He Lianfang breaking his legs with a sinister look on his face, Zhao Yao suddenly felt some pain in his legs.

"I won't go, I definitely won't go!" If he really goes to Japan next year, his second uncle will probably break his legs!
"Second uncle, over there in Lingnan..." Zhao Yao looked at He Lianfang's face, which was still cold, and quickly changed the subject to talk about Lingnan.

He Lianfang knew that Zhao Yao would not give up the idea of ​​going to Japan easily.However, even if Zhao Yao doesn't give up, he can still find a way to make Zhao Yao too busy to think about the Japanese affairs.

In the past few years, Zhao Yao has made a lot of preparations and done a lot of things to go to Lingnan.When Zhao Yao goes to Lingnan, he will be able to show his talents immediately.

"Oh, I can't wait to go to Lingnan right now. I really don't want to stay in this capital for a moment." Going to court every day is really fucked up.

"The purpose of bringing you to court is to let you understand the situation."

"I can understand the situation in the DPRK and China without going to the DPRK."

"There is another purpose for letting you go to court, and that is to let you see clearly the ministers in the court."

"Do you want me to see the true faces of the ministers in the Qing Dynasty?" Zhao Yao sneered, "Do you need to go to court specifically to see them? I know them without looking."

"You should take a closer look at how your father plays games with those ministers." He Lianfang said seriously, "This is what you should learn most when you go to court."

"I can." He knew his father's methods of deceiving ministers.

"You?" He Lianfang looked Zhao Yao up and down, and then mocked, "You are far behind your father."

Zhao Yao glanced at He Lianfang and then joked: "Second uncle, are you praising my father?"

Hearing this, He Lianfang's face immediately darkened, and her tone became unkind: "Zhao Zheng is sinister and despicable, and his methods are vicious. You are far inferior to him."

Zhao Yao said with great self-knowledge: "Second uncle, if you say that, then I will definitely not be as good as my father."

"By the way, how is your marriage?" He Lianfang was too lazy to tell Zhao Yao about the emperor, "Has Zhao Zheng told you about this?"

Zhao Yao shook his head slightly: "No, my father has not told me about my marriage so far."

Hearing this, He Lianfang frowned slightly: "Have you told your mother and concubine?"

"My mother asked my father, and he said he would choose a good marriage for me, but he hasn't decided which one to choose." After Zhao Yao finished speaking, he remembered that Concubine Liang had mentioned to him that Concubine Li cared about him. He told He Lianfang about the marriage. "I think my father should let me marry a girl from the Li family."

He Lianfang asked: "Why?"
