Lu Jinhuan quickly stopped his ramblings. She looked a little tired and said to the emperor: "I am a little tired. Your Majesty, please take Zhao Zhao to her room to play."

Xiao Yiqi knew that she was getting sleepy again, so he nodded.

After waiting for Lu Jinhuan to lie down, he got up and went out with Eunuch Zhang.

Eunuch Zhang's face was full of smiles now. He kept teasing the child. Zhao Zhao was even happier than before.

Xiao Yiqi calmed down and asked him, "What is the situation in the court now?"

Eunuch Zhang was no longer as happy as before, and quickly replied: "Your Majesty left the courtiers behind when he came over, which naturally caused a commotion."

"Those individuals are spreading nonsense and writing nonsense."

As he spoke, Eunuch Zhang stopped and looked at the emperor hesitantly.

Xiao Yiqi looked back at him and frowned, "Is there anything I can't say? What did they pass on?"

"I'm guessing whether His Majesty was forced to give up by the old chief minister."

"But some people say that His Majesty is hiding a beauty, and now he is ignoring the court and acting like a fool..."

Naturally, there were still rumors that were more difficult to hear. Eunuch Zhang only picked two important ones and did not dare to tell the emperor the rest.

Xiao Yiqi suddenly smiled for some reason, "They were right, I am not hiding a beauty."

He suddenly lowered his head and looked at Zhao Zhao, and whispered: "This is a son. Naturally, he is the best. He can also shut the mouths of these people."

But as soon as the emperor finished speaking, he paused, as if he was worried that Zhao Zhao would be sad if he found out, and quickly added, "This son is naturally not as cute and well-behaved as my Zhao Zhao."

As he said this, Eunuch Zhang's mind was in knots.

I don’t know what the emperor’s plan is now.
Xiao Yiqi suddenly looked at Eunuch Zhang and said coldly: "In that case, let's go back to the palace and see what these talkative people want to say in front of me."

Hearing this, Eunuch Zhang hurriedly agreed, but the emperor had already walked away with the little princess in his arms. He frowned and asked the emperor to give the child to him and send him back without eating.

Unexpectedly, the emperor glanced at him indifferently and said, "This is my eldest princess and the first royal heir. How can I hide her? Naturally, everyone must take a look."

When the emperor arrived at the palace, it was already very late.

However, the old chief minister and others were informed that they had entered the palace. Everyone had already fallen asleep, but they did not dare to openly resist the order.

A few days ago, the emperor suddenly ran away in the court and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

All these courtiers were speculating about what happened.

Especially these days, they have written a lot of memorials, but the emperor has not seen them reviewed and restored.

Now that he was suddenly called into the palace, several civil servants had their faces full of anxiety.

Xiao Yiqi was still holding Zhao Zhao in her arms. The baby had only been born for a few days and spent most of his time sleeping.

She didn't cry either. She had been sleeping, leaning on the emperor's arms, very peacefully.

When these courtiers arrived at the Jinluan Palace, they saw the aloof king with a baby in his arms.

The old chief minister also saw it at a glance. He thought he was the heir apparent born from the deposed queen, so he didn't pay attention.

A group of people saluted the emperor together, and then the old chief minister took the lead and asked: "I don't know where your majesty has gone, which made me very uneasy and I can't see your majesty. Now that your majesty finally appears, I feel a lot more at ease."

The words of the old chief minister were full of loyalty, but no matter how you listened to them, you felt that the emperor had done something wrong, and it had the meaning of blaming him.

Xiao Yiqi snorted and raised his lips, looking at the old chief assistant with a smile, "You don't look uneasy."

"I saw that the old chief minister seemed sleepy, as if he had just been woken up from his sleep." As soon as the emperor said this, the courtiers acted as if they were mute and did not dare to raise their heads to look at him.

Even my breathing was cautious, for fear of being implicated.

The old chief assistant was very angry when the emperor spoke so mercilessly, but he didn't show it on his face.

Soon a look of shame appeared on his face, "I am not as old as I used to be, so naturally I feel a little embarrassed, and I am a little disobedient, which makes Your Majesty laugh."

"Fortunately, His Majesty does not dislike the veteran."

This old chief assistant is younger than Mr. Wang.

He did not have the experience of serving as an official for three dynasties, but he did experience two dynasties before and after, and saw with his own eyes Mr. Wang's family, from showing off their power to declining.

Naturally, he would still accommodate the emperor's face, and it wouldn't really matter. After all, as a minister, no matter how powerful he is, he is still superior.

Xiao Yiqi looked at the old chief assistant for a while, and then he set his sights on Zhao Zhao.

Soon he said with guilt in his tone: "I really didn't pay attention to the important affairs of the government these days, and I was delayed for a few days."

"It's all my fault, but there is a reason for it."

The old chief assistant seemed to open his mouth when he heard this and was about to speak.

Xiao Yiqi raised his hand to stop him, "Old Chief Assistant, please keep your voice down. My eldest princess is still sleeping. Don't wake her up."

The eldest princess? !

Hearing these three words, the courtiers below all looked over and landed on the infant Zhao Zhao.

However, Xiao Yiqi had no intention of hiding it. Instead, he turned Zhao Zhao sideways and raised his hand in front of everyone.

"Just a few days after she was born, the eldest princess met all the ministers."

The old chief assistant was originally the leader of this group of civil servants. His face was very calm and he didn't mean anything. Instead, he stood motionless.

I looked at the child for a few more times and kept guessing which concubine the emperor would have given birth to this so-called eldest princess.

Now there are no concubines in the harem, only one concubine Shu.

If she is pregnant, the Yi family should not leak any information.

Moreover, a few days ago, the emperor heard the news from the people below and left immediately.

The look on her face was still very anxious. From the looks of it, it seemed that it was the day when the eldest princess was giving birth.

Thinking of this, the old chief minister was not anxious, because this was a princess, not a prince. If the emperor gave birth to a prince at this time and valued her very much, that would be a different matter.

He didn't even dare to think about the consequences.

But Xiao Yiqi suddenly looked at them again, "My eldest princess doesn't have a serious name yet. You all are talented people who have stood out in previous scientific examinations."

"Why don't you, dear friends, come up with a good name for my Eunuch Zhang?"

At this moment, everyone looked at each other, and then one person came forward to persuade: "Your Majesty, we will choose a name. Naturally, the princess cannot have a name after March. Now that she has decided on the name, she will Don’t you have any ancestral rules?”

Xiao Yiqi snorted coldly, his eyes were cold, and he looked at the minister who was speaking with a majestic expression.

"Are you telling me the rules?"

"When the late emperor was here, the eldest brother born to a noble concubine had a name when he was born. It was given by the late emperor himself. Why didn't anyone say a word at that time that it was against the rules of the ancestors?"
