Seeing Ying Zheng's determined gaze, the little guy nodded slightly, "I understand."
[A father is still a father; his unstoppable spirit is truly admirable.]
He had met countless people, but those with the spirit of Ying Zheng were few and far between, truly remarkable.
After all, this kind of quality will definitely earn you respect wherever you go.
Hearing the little one's thoughts, Consort Shu nodded in agreement.
Then the little guy said, "I can't go with Dad this time because I have something very important to do."
Ying Zheng was taken aback. "Something very important?"
The little guy smiled mysteriously, "I can't tell Dad yet."
[Since Father cares so much about Great Qin, I cannot stand idly by. I should make Great Qin stronger and stronger, so that Great Qin will not be bullied by others.]
Upon hearing that it was something that would make the Qin Dynasty stronger, Ying Zheng was secretly delighted.
Good son, your father has truly loved you well.
He didn't ask any more questions and replied, "Since that's the case, then go ahead and do it. I will take Xiaoyao with me this time. You just need to focus on your own business."
The little guy is amazing, but you can't keep him by your side all the time; you always have to give him some free time.
The little guy said, "I probably can't bring Xiaoyao's dad either, because I still want him to help me."
Ying Zheng frowned slightly, looking at the little guy with considerable doubt.
Seeing his serious expression, and knowing he seemed to have a deep plan, Ying Zheng nodded, "Alright, Xiaoyao will obey your orders."
Although Ying Zheng didn't know what the little guy was planning to do, he could tell from the little guy's serious expression that he was doing something quite serious.
With the little guy's strength, since he has decided to do it seriously, the benefits to Qin will be immeasurable, and Ying Zheng will naturally support him.
The little guy beamed, "Thank you, Dad."
The matter was urgent, and Kong Jia had already spoken to Ying Zheng in the morning, so Ying Zheng did not delay. After arriving at the little guy's place, he immediately led the main force out of the palace.
Xiaoyao soon arrived at the little guy's place.
As Xiaoyao entered the hall, he saw Consort Shu sitting and sewing. He cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I have come to see the young master."
He was the Grand Master Protector of the Nation, holding an extremely prestigious position in the Qin Dynasty. He did not need to bow even to Consort Shu and other important officials, wielding immense power, yet he was extremely respectful to Consort Shu.
Consort Shu raised her eyes and curtsied, saying, "His Majesty said before he left that you had returned, but now..."
As he spoke, he glanced into the inner room, his expression quite troubled. "Yu'er is asleep."
She was aware that Xiaoyao was coming, so she made preparations to welcome him well in advance and dared not be negligent in the slightest towards this Grand Master Protector of the Nation.
But unexpectedly, despite her best efforts, the little one sneaked into the kitchen and ate something while she was busy, then fell asleep with his round belly.
Consort Shu was also in a dilemma. It would be unreasonable to make someone of Xiaoyao's noble status wait for a sleeping baby.
But the little guy is a very deep sleeper, the kind that won't budge no matter what, so forcibly waking him up wouldn't be good for him.
Hearing that the little guy was sleeping, Xiaoyao was not annoyed, but smiled faintly, "It's alright, since the young master is sleeping, let's wait."
After speaking, he sat down in the guest seat, looking as if he was prepared for a long battle.
Seeing his appearance, Consort Shu felt a little embarrassed. "How about I wake Yu'er up? It's really not appropriate to keep you waiting."
This was taken into consideration not only Xiaoyao's identity but also his age.
It is undoubtedly impolite for a baby to make an old man wait for him to wake up. If others find out, they will inevitably say that the little guy is impolite.
Xiaoyao was quite flustered and quickly said, "No need, no need. The young master is at the age where he is growing. Sleeping well is good for his development. You must not disturb him!"
If we say he has plenty of time, the little guy could sleep for three to five days straight, which would be more than enough.
But if this upsets the little guy, and he completely ignores him when he asks for advice on talismans in the future, then Xiaoyao cannot accept that.
This is undoubtedly a losing proposition.
Seeing Xiaoyao's insistence, Consort Shu was quite puzzled, but considering Xiaoyao's identity, she did not ask any further questions and simply agreed to the matter.
The little guy was very sleepy, and he slept for two hours without making a sound.
It wasn't a very long time, but Consort Shu felt that each day was like a year. Every time, she couldn't help but glance at Xiaoyao, afraid that this Grand Master Protector of the Nation might have some thoughts about it. She even neglected her embroidery.
But Xiaoyao's reaction surprised her quite a bit.
Throughout this long period of time, Xiaoyao showed no signs of impatience, sitting cross-legged with his eyes slightly closed, appearing completely calm.
This state of mind is truly admirable; no wonder he comes from Hanshan Temple.
Amidst Consort Shu's considerable unease, the little one's voice finally rang out, "What are you doing here?"
The little guy stood at the door with sleepy eyes, looking at Xiaoyao with a puzzled expression.
Upon hearing this, Xiaoyao opened his eyes and looked at the little guy. "His Majesty specifically instructed me before he left that I must obey your orders, so I came directly here."
The little guy yawned, "Oh, I see. There's nothing else for now. You can go back now."
Consort Shu's expression stiffened slightly. "Is everything alright?"
She knew very well how long Xiaoyao had been waiting here. The dignified Grand Master of the Nation had waited here for more than two hours just to wait for him to wake up.
However, when the kid woke up, he actually told him that everything was fine?
Consort Shu thought it was a bit outrageous.
Xiaoyao frowned slightly, his gaze falling on the little guy, and he began to ponder, "Is everything alright?"
