The ministers begged me to ascend the throne

Chapter 9 Adding Beads
"If your second uncle has news about your uncle, he will definitely send you a letter." Liang Zhaoyi touched Zhao Yao's head, then took away the book in his hand, "Your second uncle didn't send you a letter, which means he There is no news of your uncle for the time being. It is useless for you, Xiu Mu, to look for him. "

"Mother Concubine, I haven't been out of the palace for a long time. I want to go out to play." Zhao Yao reached out and grabbed Liang Zhaoyi's sleeve, shook it gently, and said coquettishly, "When I take a rest, Mother Concubine, let me Get out of the palace."

"Okay, after you rest, I will agree with you to leave the palace."

Zhao Yao stood up, threw himself into Liang Zhaoyi's arms, and rubbed his mother and concubine's face.

"Thank you mother-in-law."

Liang Zhaoyi pinched her son's cute little face, then reached out to poke the dimple at the corner of his son's left mouth.

"It's getting late, you should go to bed, and you have to go to Wende Hall to study tomorrow morning."

As soon as he heard the word "reading", the smile on Zhao Yao's face disappeared immediately, he fell on the bed, and said bitterly: "Why do you want to study again tomorrow?" As he said, he wrapped himself in the quilt, Rolling around on the bed, "Can I not read?"

"No." Liang Zhaoyi raised her hand and spanked her son's little butt, "Lie down and sleep well."

Zhao Yao lay down obediently, with a pair of clear and beautiful eyes, looked at Liang Zhaoyi pitifully, and asked unwillingly: "Concubine mother, can I really have to go to school tomorrow?"

After Liang Zhaoyi covered her son with the quilt, she flicked Zhao Yao's forehead lightly with her fingers, and once again ruthlessly rejected his coquettishness and prayer: "No!"

"Concubine Mu, I have read and know a lot of characters, so I don't need to go to Wende Hall to study." Although he had forgotten a lot of the dream he had before, he did not forget about reading and literacy.

"We have discussed this issue, there is no need to discuss it again." Liang Zhaoyi deliberately said with a straight face, "In the future, you are not allowed to say that you don't want to study, and you are not allowed to mention the matter of you being able to read, or the concubine will be angry. .”

Liang Zhaoyi's last words frightened Zhao Yao severely, and he nodded quickly: "Don't say it, never say it again." The consequences of the concubine's anger would be very serious, and he couldn't bear it.

"Good boy." Liang Zhaoyi lowered her head and kissed Zhao Yao's little face, "Sleep."

Zhao Yao obediently closed his eyes, "I'll sleep right away."

Liang Zhaoyi stood up and glanced at Lai Fu who was squatting beside her son's pillow.

Laifu gave her a cold look, then retracted his gaze, got under the quilt, and put his noble head in Zhao Yao's neck.

Seeing this scene, Liang Zhaoyi smiled slightly, then turned and left.

Zhao Yao hugged Laifu into his arms, and pulled up the quilt to cover the two of them.He whispered to Laifu: "What Concubine Mu said just now was really scary."

Like Zhao Yao, Laifu also said in a very low voice: 【You are really useless. 】

"You don't understand." Zhao Yao said, yawned with his small mouth open, and rubbed Laifu's small head, "I'm going to sleep." Not long after he finished speaking, he fell asleep.

Lai Fu lay docilely in Zhao Yao's arms, motionless.It is obviously a nocturnal animal, and it stands to reason that it should be looking for prey outside at this time, but at this moment it sleeps with Zhao Yao very obediently.

Early the next morning, Zhao Yao was woken up abruptly by Lai Fu.

Zhao Yao sat up, raised his hand and rubbed his sleepy eyes, then hugged Laifu into his arms, messing up his beautiful feathers.Angrily, Laifu gnawed at his head until it messed up his hair, and then it stopped.

"Your Highness, are you awake?" Tong Xi's voice sounded outside the door.

"woke up."

"The servant girl has come in." Tong Xi walked in respectfully and waited on Zhao Yao to get dressed.

After Zhao Yao got dressed, he suddenly thought of something, turned to Laifu and said, "Laifu, please deliver a letter to my second uncle today."

Hearing Zhao Yao's order, Tong Xi couldn't help but said, "Your Highness, Ling Yun is not a carrier pigeon."

"However, Laifuhui delivers letters."

Laifu said proudly: 【You actually asked me to send you a letter. 】

Zhao Yao knew what Laifu wanted, and asked directly: "What benefits do you want, meat, or snacks?"

Seeing that Zhao Yao is so knowledgeable, Laifu is very satisfied: [I want to eat snacks, ten yuan! 】

"Deal." Zhao Yao extended his right hand towards Laifu, and Laifu extended his wings to give him a high five. 【make a deal. 】

"I'll write it now." Zhao Yao walked to the desk, picked up a pen and wrote a simple letter.

Standing on the table, Laifu saw Zhao Yao's crooked handwriting, and said with disgust: [Your handwriting is too ugly, if the master sees it, he will definitely scold you. 】

Zhao Yao said completely nonchalantly, "Call me if you scold me." After finishing speaking, he rolled up the letter he wrote just now, and tied it to Lai Fu's lap, "Remember to bring back the reply letter from my second uncle. "

【My uncle is not a fool. ] Laifu is not the first time to help Zhao Yao deliver a letter.If it wasn't for Zhao Yao's face, Laifu would not allow Zhao Yao's second uncle to touch it.

Zhao Yao hugged Laifu, kissed its small head, and flattered it: "Laifu is the smartest Costin in the world, and the most beautiful Costin in the world."

Laifu was very satisfied with Zhao Yao's flattering words.It raised one wing and patted Zhao Yao's little head lightly: [My uncle is gone. 】

Zhao Yao waved to Laifu: "I will prepare ten yuan of snacks for you, so that you can eat them when you fly back."

After Uncle Laifu flew away, Tong Xi dared to speak: "Your Highness, is it really okay for you to let Ling Yun deliver the letter?"

"What's wrong." Zhao Yao looked at Tong Xi puzzled, "It's not the first time Lai Fu delivered a letter for me."

"Your Highness, this is not what I mean by slaves. After all, Ling Yun is the Emperor's favorite." Tong Xi said, "Aren't you afraid that Ling Yun will fly to Chengguang Hall with the second master's letter and be discovered by the Emperor?"

"You're talking about that." Zhao Yao said with a smile, "Laifu won't do it."

"Ling Yun listens to the emperor very much. If Ling Yun meets the emperor on the way back to the palace and is called away by the emperor, what should he do?"

"No, Laifu has my letter tied to his leg, so he won't fly in front of Father." Zhao Yao said very firmly.

"However, Ling Yun is the emperor's favorite pet. Compared with you, Ling Yun should listen to the emperor's words more."

"Then you are wrong, Laifu listens to me even more."

Tong Xi didn't know why his Highness could say such words with confidence, he reminded Zhao Yao again: "Your Highness, Ling Yun is the emperor's favorite pet."

Seeing that Tong Xi didn't believe it, Zhao Yao didn't bother to say anything to him.

"Don't worry, Laifu won't make mistakes."

Seeing her son humming a tune, Liang Zhaoyi came to the dining hall bouncing up and down, and asked in surprise, "What good thing happened to make you so happy?"

"Mother and concubine, I wrote a letter to my second uncle and asked Laifu to deliver it."

After hearing this, Liang Zhaoyi said helplessly, "Yaoyao, Lingyun is not a carrier pigeon."

Tong Xi nodded again and again, and said in his heart: Your empress said so.

"You can ask other birds to send you messages."

"Laifu is just here, let it deliver the letter the fastest." Zhao Yao said while sitting at the table, "Mother, you will prepare ten snacks for Laifu later, and put them on my desk. food."

"Okay." Seeing that her son trusted Laifu, Liang Zhaoyi didn't say anything more.

After breakfast, Zhao Yao calmed down Qian and Laifu.Laifu came last night, and they could only stand aside, not daring to get close to Zhao Yao.

Laifu is very domineering and possessive.As long as it comes to Zhao Yao, other animals are not allowed to approach him.

After appeasing Laicai and them, Zhao Yao took Tongxi to Wende Hall.

Seeing that the person walking in front was the Eighth Prince, Zhao Yao was very surprised, ran towards the Eighth Prince, and shouted: "Myna."

When the Eighth Prince heard Zhao Yao calling him, he stopped, turned around and looked at him: "Tenth Brother."

Zhao Yao ran in front of the eighth prince, looked him up and down carefully, and asked, "Brother, you haven't recovered from your illness, why did you run out?"

Seeing Zhao Yao looking at him worriedly, the Eighth Prince smiled slightly.He raised his hand and touched Zhao Yao's small head, and said in a gentle voice, "I'm almost fine, and it's time to come to study."

"Brother, if I were you, I would take this opportunity to rest for a few more days."

"This way you don't have to study for a few days, right?"

Zhao Yao nodded again and again: "Yes."

"Brother Ten, you really don't like reading."

"It's a pity that I'm not sick..." Before he could finish speaking, Zhao Yao was lightly tapped on the forehead, and then his starling said sternly, "Stop talking nonsense like this in the future, being sick is not a good thing."

While talking, Zhao Yao and the eighth prince heard a few young eunuchs not far away talking about what happened in the morning.

"I heard that in the early court, the prince's people and the people who replaced the king quarreled again."

"It was so noisy that everyone near Chengguang Hall could hear it."

"Why are you so noisy this time?"

"This time the acting king has made such a great contribution, Xuan Pinghou and the others proposed to add beads to the acting king, and also add the previous credits together, adding eight beads."

"What does adding beads mean, and what does adding eight beads mean?"

"The prince only has eight beads. You said that the acting king needs to add eight beads. What do you want to do?"

"This……"
