Chapter 2 Two Toads Lying in the Emperor's Corner

Wei Yinuo was quite satisfied with the name he had given himself, so he officially debuted as a group "Guaguale" and walked towards home with a heroic spirit.

As soon as he approached the Wei Mansion, he saw two rows of guards standing on the left and right of the door from a distance. Those guards were obviously not from their family, and those guards looked extremely serious.

Wei Yinuo couldn't help but wonder, what was going on?

Suddenly he remembered that he still had a system, so he quickly asked: [System, can you help me check what's going on with these people at the door? ]

System: [Wait a minute! ]

[Hey, it turns out that the emperor came to your house! ]

Wei Yinuo: [What? The emperor came to my house? You brought so many people to guard the door of my house, my father won’t be beheaded, right? 】

【So should I run away quickly? 】

System: ...

If your father is really in trouble, shouldn’t you worry about your father first?

【Host, don’t worry, you are tied to me now, I will not let you get into trouble easily, I have a protection mechanism to ensure your safety. 】

Wei Yinuo paused: 【What protection mechanism? 】

System: 【When I judge that your life is in danger, I will turn on this protection mechanism to ensure your personal safety. 】

Wei Yinuo: 【Wow, this function sounds pretty awesome, right? 】

"Girl, what are you doing standing here? Why don't you go home?"

The eldest brother Wei Chen just came back from outside and asked Wei Yinuo suspiciously when he saw him standing here.

Seeing that it was his eldest brother, Wei Yinuo quickly pointed at the guard at the door and whispered, "Brother, is our father going to be beheaded?"

Wei Chen patted her head and said, "What are you thinking about all day long! Let's go in and take a look."

Wei Yinuo: "No, brother..."

Without waiting for Wei Yinuo to speak, Wei Chen directly pulled Wei Yinuo to the door of Wei Mansion.

Seeing someone coming, two guards immediately stood out to block the two of them in front, and then asked the butler of Wei Mansion who was standing nearby. The butler nodded and told the other party the identities of the two people. Only then did the guards let them in.

Mrs. Wei came over as soon as they entered the house.

Wei Chen asked anxiously, "Mom, what happened to our family?"

Mrs. Wei made a "huh" gesture, then immediately pulled them both aside and whispered, "Keep your voice down, the emperor has come to our house and is now in your father's study."

"Mom, is our father okay?" Wei Chen was still worried and asked hurriedly.

He had never seen the emperor come to their house since he was a child.

And his father had been at home for many days claiming to be sick. Although he didn't know why, he thought that the emperor's personal visit should be related to this matter.

"Don't ask so many questions about the affairs of the court, kid. Be good, take your sister to the backyard to play for a while, and make sure you keep an eye on her and don't let her run around, especially to your father's study. Don't go there, so as not to disturb the emperor. Do you hear me?"

Madam Wei instructed. Although she said so, the worry between Madam Wei's eyebrows was evident.

"Yes!"

Wei Chen saw that his mother had a serious face, and although she was worried about his father, she still pulled Wei Yinuo to the backyard.

Wei Yinuo followed his eldest brother back to the backyard with a reluctant look on his face.

Since they were already in, as a professional melon owner, she wanted to go to the scene to secretly eat some melons and take a look at the emperor. I heard that their emperor was quite handsome, but she had never had the opportunity to see him in person.

While others were not paying attention, Wei Yinuo sneaked away...

When Wei Chen hurried over, he saw Wei Yinuo squatting by the window, sticking his butt out, with one ear pressed against the window paper, eavesdropping like a big toad. .

Wei Chen: She is here indeed! This sister is really brave! She actually dared to lie on the emperor's wall!

And this posture is really hard to describe...

Just when he wanted to pull his sister back, he suddenly heard whispers coming from inside, but because it was far away, he couldn't hear it clearly.

Wei Chen then decisively joined Wei Yinuo, stuck his butt out, and became a big toad.

Wei Yinuo had already asked the system clearly on the way here.

It turned out that the reason why the emperor came to her house in person today was because of the recent heated debate in the court about the appointment of a crown prince.

Although in ancient times, the appointment of a crown prince usually involved either the legitimate son or the eldest son, but the situation in the Northern Zhao Kingdom where she traveled through was a little different.

Here, the most capable son is usually appointed. To put it simply, among the emperor's sons, whoever has the ability will be chosen as the crown prince.

However, there is no unified standard for evaluating ability and virtue, and even Emperor Mingde himself has not considered it clearly.

Emperor Mingde himself did not intend to appoint a crown prince so early. On the one hand, it was because he wanted to examine his sons carefully; on the other hand, he was now in his prime and in good health, and he felt that there was no need to appoint a crown prince so hastily.

However, some ministers in the court insisted on holding on to this issue and quarreled all day long.

Moreover, these people had different opinions. One faction supported the eldest prince, while the other supported the second prince.

These ministers quarreled all day long in the court, but in fact, some ministers did not consider the country and society, but for their own interests. To put it bluntly, it was mixed with party disputes.

As an important member of the court, Wei Taifu was approached by people from both factions several times, but he did not want to take sides and get himself involved in this court dispute, so he asked for illness at home.

Emperor Mingde had long suspected that some ministers had ulterior motives. What he hated most in his life was that officials formed factions for personal gain. For their own little interests, they even gambled with the future of the Northern Zhao Kingdom.

Emperor Mingde came here to see what exactly this Wei Taifu was planning.

At this moment, Wei Yinuo was lying by the window, with his head pressed against the window, looking inside seriously: [I can't see what the emperor looks like!]

Wei Chen:

It's Nuo'er's voice! But Nuo'er was clearly lying next to him, and her mouth was tightly closed, and she didn't say anything???

What on earth is going on!

System: [Why don’t you just secretly make a hole in the window paper?]

Wei Chen: Whose voice is this? ? ? Wei

Yinuo: [Yes, system, how come you are so smart!]

Then, Wei Chen saw Wei Yinuo put a finger into his mouth, and then with wet saliva, he was about to poke the wallpaper on the window.

Wei Chen quickly stretched out his hand to stop Wei Yinuo.

Is she crazy? The emperor is in there! If they are discovered, they will be dead!

Unfortunately, Wei Chen lost his balance and fell into

the study headfirst. The two toads, oh no, the brother and sister fell into the study one after the other.
