Waiting for pets

Xie Chonghua met Jiang Yi by accident while strolling, and after a few false greetings, Xie Chonghua wanted to get rid of Jiang Yi, but Jiang Yi was very interested in chatting with him, and stopped him when he turned around.

"General Xie, go slowly, I have something to say."

Xie Chonghua turned around and said calmly, "Young Lord, if you have something to say, you might as well just say it."

Jiang Yi stepped forward with a friendly smile, "Why should Chonghua pretend to be unfamiliar, you and I have known each other for more than ten years, and we have known each other for several years. forget……"

Xie Chonghua hurriedly waved his hands, with a cold expression on his face, and said, "Don't, don't, my Xie family can't afford your love, my little prince. There is no friendship at all, it's just a nodding acquaintance. Five years ago I thank my family for my life to learn the lesson, and the memory is long enough."

As soon as these words came out, Jiang Yi's smile froze for a moment. Xie Chonghua's attitude towards him was exactly the same as Xie Yaohua's. He could feel that both brothers and sisters had no good looks towards him, or even loathed him.

Jiang Yi argued, "Back then when something happened to your family, my father and I only found out about it afterwards. My father was very worried and took people to help him personally, but it was still a step too late. I watched Uncle Xie being killed by the ghost doctor... Fortunately, Uncle Xie Jiren has his own aura, and he survived under the hands of the ghost doctor."

At the end, Jiang Yi said again, "Now that Uncle Xie has become like this, my father blames himself very much. He always thought that if he had been one step faster or continued to investigate, maybe he could have rescued Uncle Xie earlier..."

Every word is sincere.

Xie Chonghua thought to himself, if he hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes, he would have believed Jiang Yi's nonsense.

But my sister warned that before the time to reveal King Jin's mask, he had to pretend to be misled by 'rumors' when facing King Jin or Jiang Yi.

There have been rumors all these years that King Jin killed the Xie family in order to seize the military power of the Xie family.

The so-called rumors are not groundless, and Xie Chonghua knows it well.

In the past, he still thought that Jiang Yi was modest and reasonable, and he was a well-behaved son of an aristocratic family. Now, looking at Jiang Yi's words and deeds, he realized that his sister's vision of people is not wrong.

He once asked her if she made friends with Jiang Yi because she admired Jiang Yi's personality.

Xie Chonghua recalled his younger sister's smile back then, it was the first time he saw her smile so perfunctorily.

She said, "The real Jiang Yi is not the same as the Jiang Yi you have seen. You are too simple. You not only use your eyes to see people, but also your brain."

At that time, he didn't understand his sister's words very well. Later, when he saw his sister talking and laughing with Jiang Yi, he put his doubts behind him until something happened to Xie's family. Gradually, he seemed to have learned how to see whether a person is true or not. True or false.

At this moment, Jiang Yi sold his misery in front of him to win sympathy, and he could probably guess what An was up to.

"What's the matter, little prince?" He asked knowingly.

Jiang Yi hesitated for a moment, and only spoke when Xie Chonghua lost his patience, "Forgive me for being abrupt, I want to see Lingmei, there seems to be some misunderstanding between me and her, I want to explain it to her face to face."

Xie Chonghua sneered when he heard the words, "The little prince's words are strange. It's not that I have a misunderstanding, who has a misunderstanding with you, who should you go to, and what's the use of you coming to me."

Jiang Yi hurriedly said, "She doesn't want to see me, nor listen to my explanation, I think..."

At this time, Xie Chonghua completely lost his patience, and interrupted with a cold voice, "Young Lord, it's better not to think too much, there is no misunderstanding between the younger sister and the little prince, you are not familiar with each other."

Jiang Yi knew that he would not get good face from Xie Chonghua today, so he stopped at the right time and did not mention Xie Yaohua again.

When Xie Chonghua turned to leave, Jiang Yi followed behind him neither far nor near.

Xie Chonghua pretended not to know, wandered around, guessing that the Queen Mother's birthday banquet was about to start, so he walked towards Fengling Terrace at a leisurely pace, Jiang Yi followed behind him unhurriedly.

On the way to Fengling Terrace, I overheard the whispering of a group of palace servants.

"His Royal Highness actually treated the man..."

"They're still doing that sort of thing in limbo."

"Isn't that right? I also heard just now that many people saw His Highness the Crown Prince in the cold palace with a man... um, um, just doing that kind of indecent thing."

A group of palace servants were blushing and chatting vigorously, one of them suddenly turned pale with fright when he saw Xie Chonghua not far away.

"Thank you...thank you, General..."

The group of people didn't take it seriously, and someone let out a 'tss'.

"Hey, you used the crown prince to scare us just now, and now it's General Xie, Ruyi, you have nothing else to do..."

The speaking maid raised her eyes unconsciously, and was swept away by the sharp eyes, and her whole body froze.

"Thank you, General Xie..."

After uttering a slurred voice, the servant girl who was speaking plopped down on her knees, terrified as if seeing Shura.

Several people present followed her gaze, and they were also quite frightened, kneeling down one after another, lowering their heads and not daring to vent their anger.

No one in the palace knew that His Highness the Crown Prince had a close relationship with General Xie, and even before today there were many rumors about the two of them, but they had never seen any intimacy in front of people.

Now that His Highness the Crown Prince has a new love, he actually did such a thing under the blue sky and broad daylight, and General Xie heard about it.

The palace servants kneeling on the ground thought that their lives were not long, even if they were not executed by General Xie personally, as long as General Xie ordered them, most of them would be beaten to death with random sticks.

But when all the maidservants came back to their senses from the panic, the imaginary deadly Asura had disappeared.

Jiang Yi didn't know why, he just saw that these people seemed to have offended Xie Chonghua by committing crimes, and as soon as Xie Chonghua left, he came over.

The people kneeling on the ground originally wanted to get up, but when they saw him, they trembled in fright, prostrated themselves on the ground, and spoke tremblingly.

"Little, little, little prince..."

The rest of the people knelt down and didn't dare to lift their heads when they heard the sound.

Jiang Yi seemed to be casually saying, "What did you say, General Xie seems to be angry."

"This……"

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay, wondering how to reply in order to save their lives.

Jiang Yi frowned, and said, "If you want to save your life, you'd better tell the truth."

"Yes……"

The palace servant who responded whispered what happened just now in detail.

After listening, Mr. Jiang Yi was astonished, and then laughed.

"It turns out that the prince has such an unknown hobby. General Xie is angry, and he must hate iron for being weak..."

Said gloating words in a sighing tone.

The servant girl who had just opened her mouth carefully raised her eyes to take a sneak peek, and accidentally saw the handsome profile of the young prince, blushed immediately, and couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Jiang Yi noticed something, looked at the red-faced, shy palace maid, with disdain in his eyes, but the corners of his mouth curled up, and said, "You are?"

He just asked casually on the spur of the moment, but the maid responded shyly and timidly, "I... my slave name is Yutang, and I usually serve outside Qinzheng Hall."

Hearing what Yutang said, the expressions of the other servants in the palace were all different, and they were thinking of each other.

Jiang Yi smiled and said, "Yutang, that's a good name."

After saying that, Jiang Yi turned around and smiled disdainfully.

Watching Jiang Yi go away, the palace maid named Yutang couldn't bear to take back her obsessive gaze.

On Fengling Terrace, the birthday banquet was about to begin, and everyone was seated one after another.

When Xie Chonghua came, Yu Ziyan had already taken his seat, and there was a person standing behind him, whose figure looked familiar.

He stared at the man, who seemed to be aware of it and raised his eyes to look at him, and Xie Chonghua was taken aback for a moment when his eyes met.

This so-called "average-looking" prince's attendant turned out to be his sister!

The person those people talked about just now was Yao'er who acted recklessly with the prince in the cold palace!

For a while, Xie Chonghua became even more angry.

Well, Yu Ziyan, not to mention abducting my sister, but also leading her into ruin...

Yu Ziyan, who didn't know it, suddenly felt murderous, and when he raised his eyes, he saw his uncle staring at him viciously, his eyes were really scary.

He subconsciously looked back at Xie Yaohua, and Xie Yaohua looked down at him.

In Yu Ziyan's eyes, the eye contact between the two people is like looking at each other with affection.

She has a man's face.

At this time, it seemed that the two big men were affectionate, disgusting.

Goosebumps all over the place.

Xie Chonghua came to stand in front of Yu Ziyan, with an ugly face and a bad tone, "His Royal Highness, as a prince, should be clean and self-disciplined, and set his own character as a benchmark, and should not be a bad influence."

Hearing what he said, Yu Ziyan suddenly realized.

He said gently to Xie Chonghua, "Chonghua doesn't need to listen to other people's gossip. You can't know whether I am clean or not."

"..."

These words are so ambiguous that even Xie Yaohua can't listen anymore.

Xie Chonghua almost spit out the overnight meal.

"Can you stop being so disgusting?"

Yu Ziyan shook his head and said with a smile, "No."

"..."

Xie Chonghua was disgusted by this smile, snorted, turned around with his sleeves, went to sit in his seat, far away from Yu Ziyan.

Yuziyan was cheerful, and turned to talk to Xie Yaohua.

"Look at Zhonghua like this, he seems to be mad at me, he will probably climb over the wall at night and beat me up, you have to protect me."

Xie Yaohua laughed helplessly, "You know his temper and deliberately provoked him, and the beating is your own fault."

"I'm flattering him." Yu Ziyan said solemnly, "For you, I will admit to being beaten."

Xie Yaohua suddenly didn't know what to say.

At this time, a male duck's voice came from a distance.

"The Queen Mother is here!"

Everyone stood up and saluted, and after the queen mother was seated, their eyes fell on Yu Ziyan with a kind smile.

"Yan'er, come to grandma."

The queen mother beckoned to him, and then winked at the servant at the side. The servant understood, and quickly moved a chair and placed it beside the queen mother.

Yuzi didn't move, seemed to be hesitating, Xie Yaohua quietly reached out and tapped his back, signaling him not to disappoint the Queen Mother.

After hesitating for a while, Yu Ziyan put on a smile, got up and walked towards the Queen Mother, stood still in front of the Queen Mother, and saluted respectfully.

"The grandson wishes grandma a blessing like the East Sea, and a long life without bounds."

"Okay, good, my grandson's wishes have been received." The queen mother was very happy, said hello three times, and waved to him again.

"Come, come to Ai's house."

Yu Ziyan lowered his head and said 'yes', then turned and glanced at Xie Yaohua.

It was this look that made the eyes of those who were watching him in the dark strange.

Xie Yaohua was also aware of other people's strange gazes, but since His Royal Highness is shameless, she has nothing to worry about, and silently went to stand behind Yu Ziyan.

The Empress Dowager didn't know anything about it, she just thought that he was very kind to the attendants around her and didn't pay much attention.

"Yan'er, are you hungry?"

The queen mother took a piece of pastry and handed it to Yu Ziyan as if she was taking care of a child.

As far as the Empress Dowager is concerned, there is only such a golden grandson as Yu Ziyan. Before he was in the cold palace, she could only restrain her heartache and miss, and only wanted him to grow up safely in the cold palace.

Later, the emperor had no choice but to send him to Xiyue. He thought that he had made careful arrangements and would make his life in Xiyue better, and he would be an idle son with rich clothes and good food.

The world is unpredictable, and after going around and around, he returned to Tianchen.

The Empress Dowager feels very guilty about Yu Ziyan, the grandson. Now that he is the crown prince, he is no longer the son of the previous emperor's concubine.

The sound of silk and bamboo gradually rose, and the singing and dancing on the Fengling Stage was peaceful, but everyone at the banquet had different thoughts.

Standing behind Yu Ziyan, Xie Yaohua had a panoramic view of everyone's actions, his eyes swept over everyone, and finally stopped on a young man.

The young man in brocade clothes is as graceful as jade. He is different from others. He seems to be enjoying the dance.

Yu Ziyan took a piece of pastry and handed it back, but no one answered it for a long time. He turned his head in doubt, only to find that she was staring at the lazy boy below in a daze.

His Highness the Prince's expression suddenly became gloomy and terrifying.

Throwing the pastry on the desk, he poured himself a glass of wine and drank it silently.

The queen mother accidentally caught a glimpse of him drinking, her eyes followed the direction of his gaze, and fell on the handsome young man, a little puzzled.

"Are you having trouble with Ye'er?"

Yu Ziyan looked away, shook his head, and drank another cup sullenly.

Seeing his reaction like this, the queen mother thought that he had really had a quarrel with Zhong Jinye.

"Ye'er is your cousin. He is young and ignorant, has a quick temper, and causes troubles all day long. Your Aunt Huayang can't do anything about him, so don't bother with him."

Yuzi didn't want to explain, so he remained silent.

The queen mother's words caught Xie Yaohua's attention, she looked at Yu Ziyan, only saw his back, and her eyes returned to the handsome young man again.

It turned out that he was the only son of the little weeping Bao Zhongjinye, Princess Huayang. Many years later, the little slug from that year had also grown up.

After many years, back to Tianchen, things have changed.

At this time, Yu Ziyan and Xie Yaohua thought differently.

Yu Ziyan recalled that Zeng Mujin said that she always liked handsome men with outstanding looks.

She had been staring at Zhong Jinye just now...

Zhong Jinye felt that someone was staring at him closely, so he had to look up and found that it was the prince watching him. He couldn't help but recall the rumors he had just heard, and suddenly felt a chill.

Could it be that the rumors are true, the Crown Prince's Palace has long passed the weak crown years, but it does not marry wives and concubines, and the house does not even accept the girl who warms the bed. Earlier, it was rumored that the Prince's Highness was wholeheartedly devoted to government affairs, but now there are other rumors .

His Royal Highness is not close to women because he likes men.

Zhong Jinye glanced at Yu Ziyan again, the eyes became more and more strange, and the hairs all over his body stood on end.

Zhong Jinye glared fiercely at Yu Ziyan after a chill, never expecting to be spotted by the Queen Mother.

The Empress Dowager sighed, "Oh, Ye'er is still so out of tune. I'll talk to your uncle another day, and send Ye'er some errands to sharpen Ye'er's temperament, so that I can help you in the future."

Hearing the words, Yuzi smiled thoughtfully, "Grandmother's words are very true. Cousin should be sharpened. From what grandson sees, it's better to hand over cousin to General Xie and let him be General Xie's teaching, I think there will be unexpected gains."

The queen mother agreed deeply, nodded and smiled, "Yan'er is still thoughtful. General Xie is young and promising. He has been tempered with his father in the battlefield since he was a child. He has a calm and experienced personality. He is the pillar of the country. It is very suitable to entrust Ye'er to him." .”

Xie Yaohua was so close that she could hear clearly what the Empress Dowager said to Yuzi.

She thought to herself that Yu Ziyan treated Zhong Jinye so seriously, presumably because she had a good relationship with Zhong Jinye.

Zhong Jinye sneezed for no reason, but felt the wind blowing down his back, and couldn't help shivering.

After a while, the emperor and the king of Xiyue arrived late. After the servants raised their voices, the singing and dancing paused. Except for the queen mother, everyone present stood up and saluted, waiting solemnly.

On the Empress Dowager's birthday, the King of Xiyue came in person. He was the guest of honor, and the seat was set at the lower left of the throne.

After the emperor took his seat, the king of Xiyue sat down, and everyone sat down one after another.

After Mu Jin sat down with his robe lifted, his eyes always glanced at Yu Ziyan who was sitting next to the queen mother on the throne.

The singing and dancing continued, and Mu Jin raised his glass to Yu Ziyan, Yu Ziyan nodded and toasted, and the two drank from afar.

The emperor was very satisfied when he saw this, and said to the queen mother, "The prince and the king of Xiyue have a good relationship. Just now, the king of Xiyue also said some interesting things about Yan'er in Xiyue. The two are life-and-death friends. The king of Xiyue admires Yan'er very much. .”

When the queen mother heard others praise Yu Ziyan, she nodded with a smile, and when she looked sideways at Yu Ziyan, her eyes became more loving.

"Yan'er is a good boy, he suffered too much earlier, but fortunately he is promising, he can cope with adversity freely, he didn't lose the face of Yu's ancestors, let alone disappoint the Ai family."

The emperor nodded in agreement, and sighed, "Yes, Yan'er's temperament is very opposite to that of the emperor's brother. If the emperor's brother had not been harmed by a traitor, Yan'er... Alas, I am ashamed of the emperor's brother and failed to protect my good words." Son."

Looking at her grandson, whose appearance was only a third of that of her eldest son, the Empress Dowager seemed to see what her eldest son looked like when he first came to power.

But now that the grandson has grown up, the eldest son can't see it.

"This is a catastrophe for the Yu family, and your brother's unfulfilled wish can only be relied on by you and Yan'er."

The emperor regained his senses from his trance, and solemnly replied, "Don't worry, mother, I will fulfill the elder brother's wish for him, and hand over the entire Tianchen of the Yu family to Yan'er."

Yu Ziyan and Xie Yaohua on the side heard the emperor's words and looked at the emperor at the same time.

Xie Yaohua only glanced at it and quickly looked away, no one noticed, she lowered her head in thought.

Could it be that she was really worrying too much before, the emperor really treated Yuziyan well, and wanted to entrust the country to Yuziyan?

Yu Ziyan looked at the emperor, hesitant to speak, the emperor smiled and said, "Yan'er can rest assured, uncle will give you whatever you want."

The emperor raised his hand, and the waiter who was waiting at the side bowed and retreated.

At this time, it is not a dialogue between the emperor and the prince, but a heart-to-heart exchange between the uncle and the nephew.

What Yu Ziyan wanted, he had already asked for it.

"Thank you, Uncle."

Not long after, the servant came back and presented the imperial edict in his hand.

"His Majesty."

The emperor smiled and waved his hands, "Give it to the prince, he can't wait."

The servant presented the imperial decree to Yu Ziyan. Under the attention of many people, Yu Ziyan took the imperial decree without opening it. He got up and went to the emperor to bow down and thank him.

"Thank you, Uncle."

Yuzi said that the scene suddenly stopped, the sound of silk and bamboo stopped, the dancer was stunned, and all the clan courtiers present looked at each other in blank dismay.

The emperor couldn't help laughing, pointing at Yu Ziyan, "You boy..."

He didn't mean to blame, just smiled helplessly.

He wanted to do this in a low-key manner, but he wanted to make it known to the world. This reminded the emperor of the night when he entered the palace to ask for a marriage.

He knelt in front of the dragon couch, stubbornly refusing to back down, knelt for half an hour, and only said one word.

"I will only marry her in this life, and I hope the emperor's uncle will fulfill her."

Stubbornly stubborn.

It was later discovered that the object of his request for marriage was actually Xie Zhengyi's daughter and Xie Chonghua's younger sister, and that the taciturn prince in the eyes of others had actually given birth to a child with that Xie family girl.

The woman who the former national teacher claimed to have the most noble destiny in the world is the daughter of the Xie family who has been hidden by the Xie family for twenty years.

Not to mention that the two even gave birth to a child, even if the woman's identity as Xie's daughter is also Xie Zhengyi's legitimate daughter, she should be a crown princess.

After the emperor knew that Xie Yaohua was the world-famous seventh son, he completely lost the thought of objecting.

The imperial decree of bestowing marriage was written that night, and it was only released today, in fact, it was to take advantage of the Queen Mother's birthday to announce it to the world.

The emperor sighed, lifted Yu Ziyan who was kneeling in front of him with his own hands, and patted him on the shoulder.

"Xie Yaohua is your princess now."

After saying that, the emperor turned his eyes to Xie Chonghua with a look of relief.

"Xie Qing's family has a charming girl, intelligent and dignified, suitable for a royal wife."

Xie Chonghua got up and kowtowed in front of the emperor to thank him.

"Thank you Your Majesty for your grace."

Jinkou Yuyan said, this matter has been decided.

Yu Ziyan's eyes only stared at Xie Yaohua, feeling the spring breeze blowing on his face, feeling happy physically and mentally.

There was an uproar below, those who didn't know whispered, and those who knew had complicated expressions.

Mu Jin smiled and raised his glass again to signal to Yu Ziyan.

Zhong Jinye didn't know why, so Fang turned his head to ask Jiang Yi, who was sitting next to him, when he suddenly heard a crisp sound of 'pop', he turned his head in surprise, and saw Jiang Yi's bloody hand resting on the small case.

Zhong Jinye giggled, and said, "Hey, the little prince is even more excited than I am to hear that the prince's brother is going to marry the prince's concubine."

Jiang Yi cast him a cold look, picked up the wine glass with his bleeding hand, and drank it down.

Zhong Jinye, who didn't deal with Jiang Yi very much, couldn't stand it anymore.

"Hey, the prince's elder brother is going to marry a wife. You put on a dead face. Those who know know that you have also taken a daughter of the Xie family as a concubine. Those who don't know think that you have lost your wife. It's hypocritical!"

Zhong Jinye sneered as he ate the pastry, then patted the crumbs on his hands, raised his hands and applauded.

"Congratulations, Brother Prince!"

"..."

Everyone's eyes were attracted by the voice of this incongruous son, and the atmosphere froze for a moment, followed by congratulations.

"Congratulations, His Royal Highness."

"Congratulations, General Xie..."

"..."

Zhong Jinye loves to join in the fun, so she immediately leaned forward, rubbed Yu Ziyan with her arm, winked, and said with a smile, "Congratulations to the prince's brother for embracing the beauty."

At the end, Zhong Jinye added softly, "In this way, I feel at ease. I thought you had plans for me when you looked at me just now."

"..."

If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, His Royal Highness would have to teach this unsightly boy a lesson.
