The two of them didn't walk out of the rockery until there was no sound in the plum garden.

The amount of information contained in a short conversation shocked Xiao Ruo into a trance.

What kind of royal family ethics drama is this...

Xiaoxun looked at her dazed expression because she was too shocked, and thought it was because they stayed in the tunnel for too long, which caused Xiaoruo to be stuffy, so he quickly fanned with his hands to increase the air circulation.

"Ruo Ruo? Are you feeling better?" He asked with concern.

Xiaoruo turned her head to face Xiaoxun stiffly, and asked, "Don't you think their conversation just now was very shattering..."

Xiaoxun:?
"Aren't they just guessing your origin?"

If she hadn't been with Xiaoxun for so many years, knowing that he would never lie to herself, Xiaoruo would almost have thought that he was pretending to be pure...

Great, the puppy in front of me is really pure.

Xiaoruo decided not to pollute the puppy's blank heart, anyway, this kind of royal gossip has nothing to do with her.

"Forget it, let's go back." Holding Xiaoxun's hand and walking back, Xiaoruo decided to stay away from this place of right and wrong.

Back at the residence, Xiaoruo thought nothing happened, but Xiaoxun began to think about it.

"Ruoruo, do you think what they said just now is true? Is it possible that Mr. Su is Uncle Xiao?"

Xiaoruo raised her forehead, she really didn't want to think about this ethical drama anymore, let her go...

"How is it possible? My surname is Xiao and his surname is Su. We were not in the same family 800 years ago." She poured herself a glass of cold water to cover up her embarrassment.

"Okay, let's not think about these irrelevant things, let's look at the clues in the brochure, the New Year will be in a few days, and I want to go home and celebrate the New Year with Zhao Zhaoyou and the others."

The wish is beautiful, but the reality is cruel. The two pondered for a few days, but still got nothing.

On New Year's Eve, Su Henian came to their residence early in the morning and brought several rewards and an oral order.

"Holy Majesty Zhai has a kind heart. I feel pity that there are still young and old in your family. I specially allow you to go home for a reunion. You only need to enter the palace before the Lantern Festival in the next year."

This was really a surprise, Xiaoruo couldn't help asking: "I didn't dream, did I?"

After all, seeing that the end of the new year is approaching, she has been moaning at the imperial calendar for several days, and she has already made the worst plan in her heart to spend a cold new year in the palace with Xiaoxun.

Su Henian smiled and said: "The golden words of the Holy Majesty are naturally true, and these things are all rewarded by the Holy Majesty. Take them back and give them to the children."

Unexpectedly, they had been in the palace for half a month, and there was no progress in searching for mercury. The emperor not only did not blame him, but also rewarded them to go home for the New Year.

Xiaoruo suddenly felt that Zang Lu was not so domineering and unreasonable.

Thank you, and at noon that day, the two returned to Xiao's house in the carriage prepared by Su Henian.

Watching the carriage that saw the two of them disappear at the end of Zhuque Street, Su Henian turned around and rushed to Qianqing Palace to return to his command.

Zang Lu lowered his head to review the memorial, and drew circles on it with a cinnabar pen from time to time. Sitting at the small table on the left was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, who was the Seventh Prince Zang Tinghua.

Su Henian calmed his breath outside the hall, adjusted his appearance before entering the room.

"Report to Your Majesty, Miss Xiao and Young Master Gu have already left the palace."

Zang Lu didn't raise his head, he just hummed to express his understanding, and then handed over the memorial he was reviewing to Su Henian.

Su Henian quickly lowered his head and took it with both hands, then turned around and presented it to Zang Tinghua.

"Min Kuan, look at this brochure."

The seventh prince, Zang Tinghua, has the character of Minkuan, and his temperament is the same as his character, Kai Min and generous.

Opening the memorial, I saw that the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi accused some officials of the flood for their inaction, which caused the people to fail to evacuate in time when the flood occurred and died in the flood.

He frowned and said angrily: "Local officials are to the people what parents are to children. They should fulfill their duty of protection. These people don't take the lives of the people seriously. It's abominable!"

Zang Lu stroked his beard and nodded in agreement, "In your opinion, how should these officials be dealt with?"

"This..." Zang Tinghua showed a trace of confusion on his face, "I feel that these people should be dismissed from their official positions and replaced by good officials who are considerate of the people."

Hearing his answer, Zang Lu didn't show it on his face, and just said lightly, "You should go to study, don't let the Taifu wait", and let Zang Tinghua leave the Qianqing Palace.

After the Seventh Prince took his leave, he sighed quietly.

Su Henian brought up the white fungus and lotus seed soup that had been warm all the time, and said, "Your Majesty is tired, drink some soup to moisten your throat."

Taking the gold-painted white porcelain bowl, Zang Lu didn't want to taste it, his eyes didn't know where to fall, he seemed to be talking to Su Henian, but also seemed to be talking to himself.

"As a prince, Min Kuan is kind and generous, which is excellent, but as the only prince, benevolence alone is not enough..."

Rubbing the empty thumb and index finger together, Zang Lu's eyes suddenly became sharp, "Parents should fulfill their duty of protection to children, and it is true."

"Little Suzi."

Su Henian flicked his fly whisk, bowed his head and replied, "The servant is here."

"Prince Xuan'an."

"According to the order."

Su Henian walked backwards out of Qianqing Palace, and ran to Prince An's mansion under orders.

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

Xiaoruo and Xiaoxun who returned home were warmly welcomed by the whole family.

This year's New Year's Eve, the Xinli Cordyceps specialty store closed early, and the Guozijian also had its annual holidays very early. The whole family gathered neatly in the small courtyard, with happiness and joy on their faces.

"Sister! What is this? It smells so good~" Xiaoyou asked while swallowing an exquisite food box from the pile of things brought back by the two of them.

Scratching the tip of the little greedy cat's nose, Xiaoruo's face was full of doting: "Open it if you want to eat it, it should be a pastry bestowed by the Holy One."

Holding the food box half as big as her body and putting it on the table, Xiaoyou couldn't wait to open the lid. Inside were layers of pastries in the shape of flowers, birds, insects and fish, lifelike and fragrant.

"Wow!" With a cheer, the little greedy cat couldn't wait to pick up a small cake in the shape of a peach blossom. After taking a deep breath of the aroma, he swallowed and handed it to Xiaoruo's lips, "Sister, you eat!"

Seeing that her saliva was about to flood, and thinking about giving it to herself first, Xiao Ruo was both moved and distressed.

This cub didn't hurt in vain!

Xiao Xiao took a bite, Xiao Ruo pushed the pastry back to Xiao Niao's mouth, "Eat it, sister is tired of eating in the palace."

Then the little greedy cat happily gnawed on the pastry, making the rest of the Xiao family smile dotingly.

Turning her head to look at her younger brother who had grown a little taller, Xiao Ruo said comfortingly, "Zhao Zhao looks like a grown-up now."

"Isn't it!" Zheng Dongyang said proudly, "We Zhaozhao came out on top in this year's Guozijian exam! Masters even rewarded us!"

"Really?" Xiaoruo was quite surprised, after all, Guozijian is the highest school in the country, and it is really not easy to get No.1 in the Guozijian exam.

She took out a handful of silver from her purse, after thinking about it, she simply took off the whole purse and stuffed it into Xiaozhao's hand, saying: "We are well educated, and human kindness is also indispensable. You take the money first, and ask for it if you have nothing to do on weekdays." Invite students to dinner, and the gentlemen must also give gifts during the festival.”

After thinking about it, she felt that it was not enough, so she planned to give Xiaozhao some silver notes later. "After the Chinese New Year, you go to buy some food and food, pick the good ones, and send them to the masters."

Xiao Zhao nodded obediently and said, "Sister, don't worry, Ting Yun has also told me about these etiquettes, and he even invited me to visit the famous scholars in Yingzhou and Xie Yuan from various states in the next year."

"Jingyun? Is it Liu, who came to our house before?" Xiaoruo had a little impression of this person, after all, he was the son of the richest man in Qinzhou. "He should be more experienced in this area, you can ask him a lot."

"Well, we plan to visit each one according to the roster given to him by his uncle from the first day of junior high school." Xiao Zhao completely trusted Liu Tingyun's arrangement, after all, his uncle held a flower appreciation party every year and invited all kinds of literati, scholars, Academic master.

The family had some personal words in the courtyard, and then went to prepare the New Year's Eve banquet together, and had a happy New Year's Eve.
