"He...he went to see my grandmother!"
Xia Zhiliao didn’t know how to tell this story, and she felt that the fewer people who knew about it, the better, both for herself and for those who knew about it.
"really?"
Xia Zhiliao looked into his dark eyes and thought guiltily:
[He doesn't believe it? Did he know? How could he know? It doesn't matter if he knows, since my grandmother didn't agree anyway.]
[No, if he knew, he would know that the emperor favors Wen Yan, so he would not start to oppose Wen Yan, right? ]
[Isn’t it good now? ]
Xia Zhiliao smiled awkwardly, "It's nothing serious anyway, how did you know he went there?"
"Nothing." Wen Heng felt relieved when he heard that Princess Yi Yang did not agree.
He and Wen Yan are getting along peacefully now, but it is hard to say what will happen in the future.
He didn't want to become an opponent of the little girl, maybe there was something else, but he didn't delve into it.
Anyway, I didn't agree.
"Um, Brother Wen Heng, how is your relationship with the Eighth Prince?"
Wen Heng is a thoughtful person. Xia Zhiliao calls him brother and Wen Yan the eighth prince, which makes him very satisfied.
"What do you want from us?"
"Is this what I can hope for?" Xia Zhiliao asked.
"Tell me about it!" Wen Heng said.
Xia Zhiliao looked at him and saw that he looked pretty good. Could it be that she had misunderstood him just now and he wasn't angry?
"Then if I really tell you, you won't be angry, right?"
Wen Heng curled his lips, "No, but you have to explain it nicely."
Xia Zhiliao nodded, "Of course I hope you can get along well with them."
"Them? There's more than just Wen Yan?"
"Well, you have so many brothers, of course not all of them can be good, but at least there should be one or two close to you, so that when you are in trouble, there will be someone to lend a hand."
"What if I say I don't need it?" Wen Heng asked.
Xia Zhi shook his head. "No one is omnipotent. It's impossible to do everything well. You will definitely encounter times when you need help. As the saying goes, three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang."
Wen Heng knew that the little girl was doing this for his own good.
"I'll think about it."
[I have said so much that my mouth is dry. I am just thinking about it. You will know when you encounter trouble in the future. If you don’t listen to the old man’s advice, you will suffer the consequences! ]
Wen Heng looked at the little kid who was not even as tall as the table. He actually called himself an old man?
That's really funny.
But he also listened to her words.
"Since we need a few people to get along well with, who do you think is good?"
Wen Heng was thoughtful, "The prince? He's the eldest brother, everyone is around him, it's good to please him, right?"
[Crown Prince? No, no, he is about to fall, and will soon be ruined by Lu Seyan. He deserves it. Who told him to be obsessed with sex and insist on making Lu Seyan his concubine? ]
Wen Heng's eyes lit up, but he continued to ask: "Second brother is not bad either. He is kind-hearted, treats his brothers well, and is easy to get along with."
[It's fake, it's all an illusion. He is sweet-mouthed but treacherous. He has been coveting the position of Crown Prince for a long time. Once the Crown Prince is gone, he will rush to take the position.]
Although he had already seen it, hearing it from the little girl gave him a different feeling.
"Third brother is not bad either."
[It's okay, mediocre and without talent, but I was able to survive to the end because I didn't pose any threat. When you were given poisoned wine, I even pleaded for you.]
Xia Zhiliao smiled and said, "It looks pretty good, but whether it's good or not is up to you to judge for yourself. How would I know?"
"Then I think the third brother is good."
[You have a good eye. OK, OK.]
Wen Heng suppressed his smile, "What about the others? Who else do you think is good?"
[I don't know. Originally, Wen Chao was supposed to be against you, but now it seems that he is not bad with you. This guy died miserably. It's hard to say.]
Wen Heng didn't say anything. Wen Chao was smart enough, but he didn't know how to hide his shortcomings. He was either really stupid or he knew how to hide his shortcomings. Otherwise, he would be easily killed.
"Then I'll take a look. Maybe what you said is a good idea."
[Of course, you can trust me. ]
Wen Heng smiled and said, "Let's go. I haven't taken you to where I live yet."
In the novel, Wen Heng was not favored and his living place did not follow the rules for princes, but she did not expect that the old emperor could be so cruel.
Wen Heng lives alone in the place where he lives, without even a servant. How can he be a prince? Any merchant with some money would not want to leave their child like this, right?
Xia Zhiliao simply didn't like being served by people around her. In fact, she did have some, as her grandmother had prepared them for her.
Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. It would be strange if Wen Heng didn't rebel since the old emperor forced him like this.
What's more, he was the one who betrayed Wen Heng's mother first. If he really doesn't like her, then he shouldn't have a relationship with her. He doesn't want to take responsibility after having a child with her, and he despises her identity.
In the novel, that night the emperor used Wen Heng's mother as a substitute for Bai Yueguang.
But he was the one who was drunk, and he was also the one who couldn't control his lower body.
There are so many women in the palace, but only one cannot accept Wen Heng's mother.
This caused her to get pregnant before marriage and she suffered all kinds of ridicule, and Wen Heng also grew up under everyone's strange gaze.
Can what he did be called a human thing?
"I like quietness." Wen Heng saw what the little girl was thinking.
This is the imperial palace. Xia Zhiliao didn't dare to say anything irresponsible, let alone provoke the already precarious relationship between him and his father.
"It's better to be quiet. I can do what I like in peace. I don't like people following me."
Wen Heng touched her head and said, "You can still think about some things."
"Yes, it's so noisy. It's so inconvenient to have someone around."
Wen Heng smiled, "Not bad, and besides, I can still leave the palace."
Suddenly, a eunuch came.
"Your Highness, the Emperor asked you to go to the Imperial Study."
Xia Zhiliao subconsciously grabbed Wen Heng's hand.
Wen Heng smiled and said, "I'll be back soon."
Xia Zhiliao felt that he would be able to come back, but it was hard to say how he would come back.
I always feel like the emperor is going to punish him.
"Send her back to the Queen Mother first."
The eunuch was stunned and didn't want to listen to Wen Heng's orders.
Wen Heng lowered his voice, "She is the granddaughter of Princess Yiyang, and the Royal Grandmother loves her very much. Do you want to leave her here alone? If something happens, how many heads do you have?"
"But I still have to go back and report..."
"Of course I will go. Are you afraid that I will run away?"
The eunuch thought about it and realized that this was indeed someone he didn't dare to offend, "Yes!"
[This little eunuch, how dare you show such disrespect to the prince? You are really too careless. ]
Xia Zhiliao looked at Wen Heng with some concern, "Can I go with you?"
"No!" Wen Heng refused decisively, "I'll go by myself, you just go to the Queen Mother's place obediently. They haven't seen you for a long time, they must be missing you."
Wen Heng knew that she was worried about him, so he couldn't let her see it.
