The ministers begged me to ascend the throne

In Wende Hall, Zhao Yao looked up at the third prince from time to time.

The eighth prince noticed that Zhao Yao had been staring at the third prince secretly, so he asked in a low voice, "Tenth brother, what are you doing staring at the third brother?" He suddenly thought of a possibility, and immediately asked anxiously and with concern, " The third brother bullied you?"

"No, the third brother didn't bully me." After Zhao Yao finished speaking, seeing the eighth prince's disbelieving expression, he said, "Really, the third brother didn't bully me. Besides, the third brother doesn't even bother to bully me."

Among all the emperor brothers, only Jiu Huang brother bullied him, and the other emperor brothers did not bully him.The third brother and the others didn't bully him, not because they had good intentions, but because they didn't take him seriously.For Brother Sanhuang and the others, bullying him is tantamount to lowering their status.In other words, his younger brother is not qualified to be bullied by them.

The eighth prince also knew what kind of temperament the third prince was, so he felt relieved after hearing what Zhao Yao said.

"Then why are you staring at third brother?"

"Brother, what do you think the third brother is like?"

The eighth prince who asked this question was slightly stunned, and then he asked puzzledly: "Why are you asking this?"

"Ask whatever you want."

The Eighth Prince didn't believe Zhao Yao's words, he frowned slightly and asked, "Did you hear something?"

Zhao Yao had an expression of "mynah, how do you know that".

The Eighth Prince lowered his voice and asked, "What did you hear?"

Zhao Yao looked at the eighth prince, and then quietly looked at the others.Seeing that no one was paying attention to the two of them, he lowered his voice and said to the eighth prince: "Brother, I heard that the third brother likes..."

"what do you like?"

"I heard that third brother likes to eat stinky tofu." Zhao Yao said seriously.

Eighth Prince: "!!!!!!"

He thought Zhao Yao would say something serious, but he didn't expect him to talk about food.

Zhao Yao continued to gossip with the eighth prince: "The third brother always smells fragrant, even more fragrant than my concubine mother. I said why the third brother smells so fragrant. It turns out that it is to cover up the smell of stinky tofu." As he said, He also smacked his lips, "Tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect third brother to like stinky tofu."

After hearing Zhao Yao's words, the Eighth Prince couldn't laugh or cry.

"Where did you hear that?"

"I heard it from those eunuchs." Zhao Yao looked at the third prince again, "The third brother usually dresses himself up like a god, I thought he was innocent, but I didn't expect him to like to eat stinky tofu , It’s really hard to tell what one looks like.”

The Eighth Prince sneered and said, "He's always put on a show."

"People who love food like me can't eat stinky tofu, how can the third brother eat it?" He heard that stinky tofu is delicious, and the smellier it is, the better it is.However, he really couldn't bear the smell.Smelling that stench makes me want to vomit. "The smell of stinky tofu is as bad as excrement, how can third brother eat it..." After speaking, he didn't know what he thought of, and he covered his mouth and started laughing.

The eighth prince knew what he was thinking when he saw that he was smiling maliciously.Stretching out his hand, he poked the corner of the mouth without dimples on the right side, and said angrily, "You little rascal."

"Brother, what's wrong with me, I didn't say anything." Zhao Yao innocently opened his eyes wide, "Don't wrong me."

"You..."

"Brother, don't tell anyone else about this." Zhao Yao said with a frightened expression on his face, shrinking his neck and said, "If the third brother knows that we know that he likes to eat stinky tofu, The third brother will definitely not let us go."

"I didn't hear anything just now." Seeing Zhao Yao staring at the third prince again, the eighth prince pinched his little face and warned him, "If you keep staring at the third prince, he will find out. "

Scared by these words, Zhao Yao hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to look at the third prince again.

Sitting in the front row of Zhao Yao and the others, the fourth prince almost couldn't help laughing when he heard the conversation between Zhao Yao and the eighth prince.

"Brother, do you think the second brother will invite us to his palace for dinner?"

Upon hearing this, the Eighth Prince knew what Zhao Yao was planning: "Do you still want to eat beef on behalf of the palace?"

The thoughts in his heart were exposed, Zhao Yao smiled embarrassedly: "I still want to take the opportunity to go out to play. Speaking of which, I haven't been to the Daiwang Mansion yet, and neither have you myna."

"What's there to do?" The eighth prince threw Zhao Yao's cold water, "Even if the second emperor invites us to dinner, there will be no beef at the banquet."

Hearing what the Eighth Prince said, Zhao Yao remembered that beef is not allowed in other places except the palace.

"Yes, there is no beef in the second brother's house." After finishing speaking, he lay down on the table and said with a disappointed face, "Oh, I can't eat beef until the Dragon Boat Festival."

"Don't think about eating beef, copy the book quickly, or the master will punish you."

Zhao Yao quickly sat up straight, picked up a pen and copied what Mr. Cai taught just now.

Just when Zhao Yao was looking forward to the early arrival of the Duanyang Festival, Sun Kui came to the Kunde Hall with the beef cooked in the imperial dining room, cloth, and imperial books.

Sun Kui's arrival surprised Liang Zhaoyi and Yu Meiren.

"Mistress Zhaoyi, this box is beef, which was specially given by the emperor to His Highness the Tenth Highness."

"Beef?" Liang Zhaoyi looked surprised, and immediately asked in doubt, "Why would the emperor reward the ten princes with beef?"

"Seeing that His Highness the Tenth Prince likes to eat beef, the Emperor rewarded the Tenth Highness with all the beef left over from yesterday."

Liang Zhaoyi: "..." I didn't know what to say for a while.

"Eunuch Sun, did Yaoyao ask the emperor for beef at yesterday's banquet?" My son can really do this kind of thing.This kid can do anything to eat.

"That's not true, but at the banquet yesterday, His Majesty the Tenth Prince was eating beef all the time. The emperor saw it, so he rewarded His Majesty the leftover beef from yesterday." Sun Kui added, "Your Majesty, the Emperor also loves Tenth Prince. Your Highness."

Liang Zhaoyi saluted in the direction of Chengguang Hall: "The concubine thanked the emperor on behalf of the tenth prince."

"Young lady, these fabrics and books are specially ordered by the emperor, and the emperor said that you like them."

Liang Zhaoyi was flattered and said: "Your Majesty... my concubine thank you His Majesty."

Sun Kui didn't say much, "Your Majesty, this servant will leave."

"Eunuch Sun, drink a cup of tea before leaving."

"Your Majesty, the servant has to go back to the imperial study to serve her, so I won't drink your cup of tea." Sun Kui saluted Liang Zhaoyi, "The servant will leave."

"I'm sorry, Eunuch Sun, please go slowly, Eunuch Sun."

Liang Zhaoyi gave Gui Xing a look, Gui Xing understood, and personally sent Sun Kui out of the Kunde Hall, and gave Sun Kui a purse with some money in it, saying that he was inviting Sun Kui to drink tea.

Sun Kui didn't refuse, and accepted it openly.

In Kunde Palace, Poppy, Fifth Princess, and Pan Cairen stared at the beef in the food box.

"I really didn't expect that the emperor would reward Yaoyao with beef."

Pan Cai said: "This is the first time I see the emperor rewarding beef."

The fifth princess complained sharply: "Only the tenth brother has this ability, so let the emperor reward him with beef."

Liang Zhaoyi thought it was a little funny, but also a little funny.

"For Yaoyao, there is nothing better than beef. The emperor rewarded him with beef, which suits him best."

Yu Meiren smiled and said, "That's true."

Pan Cairen smiled and said: "Although rewarding beef is a bit...but it shows that the emperor loves Yaoyao, otherwise how would the emperor know that Yaoyao likes to eat beef."

Liang Zhaoyi instructed Gui Xing: "Take the beef to the small kitchen and let the small kitchen burn it at noon."

"Yes, ma'am."

Liang Zhaoyi looked at the pieces of fabric on the table, and said to Poppy and the others, "You take some fabric and go back to make new clothes."

"Sister, this is a reward from the emperor, how can we take it?"

"Sister, you'd better keep it to yourself."

"I can't use so much fabric by myself, so you can take some back." Liang Zhaoyi personally selected the fabric for Poppy and the others, "Don't be polite to me."

Poppy and the others stopped being polite and accepted the fabric.

After Yu Meiren and the others left, Gui Xing asked: "Your Majesty, why did the Emperor suddenly reward you with something?" It was not the day when the Emperor came to the Kunde Hall, and the Empress did not see the Emperor during this time.The emperor is fine, how could he reward the empress.

"I did it by the way." Liang Zhaoyi said, "The emperor probably felt that it was inappropriate to reward Yaoyao with only beef, so he rewarded me with something by the way. I owed Yaoyao's blessing."

"But, the emperor remembers that you like plain fabrics, and remembers that you like to read local chronicles." Gui Xing said with a smile, "Your Majesty, the emperor has you in his heart."

Liang Zhaoyi just smiled at these words.

"Your Majesty, should these fabrics be put away or made into new clothes for you?"

"Let's make new clothes."

"Yes, empress." Gui Xing took the cloth and retreated.

Liang Zhaoyi picked up the imperial local chronicles, stretched out her hand to gently stroke the cover, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously raised a sweet arc.

Let's say that just as Sun Kui walked to the door of the imperial study, he saw Dai Wang and Kong Taichang walking out of the imperial study together.The faces of Dai Wang and Kong Taichang were both ugly.

Sun Kui was puzzled: what happened to Dai Wang and Kong Taichang, why did they look so bad, what happened?
The fourth one is here.
