Yun Yuqi thought his daughter was right; the Emperor and Imperial Censor Zhang were clearly looking down on His Highness the Crown Prince. However, he still had to give the Emperor face. "Yes, Your Majesty, I will take care of it immediately. Yun Xiaoliu, go home and comfort Hei Bao, don't talk nonsense here. What you've said has angered His Majesty."
Your Majesty: "..." I'm not angry at all! Besides, are you trying to control me? You're just telling her to go home and play.
Sisi: "Oh. Your Majesty, I'll go back and coax Hei Bao then."
His Majesty glared at Yun Yuqi. "Go back? What's there to reply to? You're already here." "Go and pay your respects to the Empress Dowager and the Empress."
"Oh right." Sisi slapped her forehead. "I was so scared I forgot."
Everyone: "..." You're scared?
Sisi bowed to the Emperor and then left.
The emperor discussed two more matters with his ministers before adjourning the court session.
After the ministers left, the Emperor walked towards the Imperial Study, looking at Ning Yirong with a smile, and said, "Why aren't you leaving yet? Didn't you go to Old Hei's house to coax the kids as soon as court ended?"
As Ning Yirong followed the Emperor toward the Imperial Study, he said, "I have to appease you sometimes, otherwise you'll cause me trouble, won't you?"
"You brat, since Yun Xiaoliu came back, how many times have you dined with your father? Tell me yourself."
Ning Yirong smiled. "When I have a son, I'll have him dine with you every day."
The Emperor glanced at Ning Yirong. "All you do is bully my grandson. If you're so capable, go bully Yun Xiaoliu."
"Father, you love your wife, but you bully your son."
"Then should I bully you a little too?"
"Aren't you afraid my grandmother will hold you accountable?"
"...Hurry up and get married! Once you have a son, your grandmother won't care about you anymore."
Ning Yirong also wanted to.
But……
Ning Yirong looked up and glared at the heavens: Why did you have to make him so different from his beloved minister?
After Ning Yirong appeased the Emperor, he went to find Sisi.
When he arrived, Sisi was telling the Empress Dowager and the Empress about Lao Bai and Ma Zi's wedding. Feng Chan wanted Thirteen to carry the sedan chair, but Thirteen wanted to carry Hei Bao along with him.
When the Empress Dowager saw Ning Yirong arrive, she immediately said, "Go and see if Hei Bao is awake. If he is, bring him over to play. Grandmother hasn't seen Hei Bao for several days."
"..." I'm going to get another eye roll from Old Hei. He's definitely doing this on purpose. "Okay, I'll go right now."
Empress: "Go quickly, go quickly, your mother also misses Hei Bao very much."
"good."
After receiving a glare from Lao Hei, Ning Yirong finally brought Hei Bao over.
Hei Bao was already quite handsome, and with such meticulous care, the Empress Dowager and Empress stopped paying attention to Si Si and Ning Yirong as soon as Hei Bao arrived. Not only did they ignore them, they even drove them away.
Because if those two were there, Hei Bao would always be looking for them.
Hei Bao also knew the Empress Dowager and the Empress, but he was more familiar with Ning Yirong and Sisi than with the two of them.
After leaving the Empress Dowager's quarters, Sisi immediately gave Ning Yirong a disdainful look. "Don't follow me."
"That won't do." "I've appeased my father."
"snort!"
"I'll play chess with you."
"...one hundred plates."
"good."
Sisi played chess with Ning Yirong for more than half an hour before returning and taking Heibao away. She deliberately mentioned Heibao mainly to let Heibao develop a better relationship with the Empress Dowager and the Empress.
However, too long is not good either; half an hour or so is about right.
After Sisi and Ning Yirong returned with Hei Bao, they first asked the guards at the gate. The guards said that Lao Hei had gone out, so Sisi and Ning Yirong took Hei Bao back to the Yun family.
In the Yun family, only Old Madam Yun had any free time. The others were either busy arranging the wedding of Lao Bai and Ma Zi or busy teaching the children in the family to read.
Madam Yun was very happy to see them. Finally, someone was there to talk to her.
Meanwhile, some people went to chat with Sun Xingyao and Yun Ruibo.
Sun Xingyao and Yun Ruibo work in different places.
In the evening, Yun Ruibo saw Sun Xingyao as soon as he came out of his post.
The two brothers looked at each other and knew exactly what the other wanted to say.
The two brothers said at the same time, "You know?"
Just as they finished talking, Wang Yicheng came over. Wang Yicheng is now married to Sisi's older cousin and is officially Sisi's older cousin's husband.
Seeing Sun Xingyao there, Wang Yicheng asked, "What are you doing here? Did you find out too?"
"knew."
He and Yun Ruibo are related to Xiao Liu by blood. Wang Yicheng not only married the Yun family's granddaughter, but also went into exile with the Yun family.
The Crown Princess Xiao Liu was more secure than a nail driven into a board, so naturally others were willing to tell them about Imperial Censor Zhang's impeachment of Xiao Liu.
Once Wang Yicheng was sure they both knew, he said, "In the past, Xiao Liu always protected us. Now that we have some ability, shouldn't we protect Xiao Liu in return? I know Xiao Liu can handle it, but we can't just stand by and watch, can we?"
Sun Xingyao and Yun Ruibo each put their arms around Wang Yicheng's shoulders.
Yun Ruibo: "We both think the same way you do."
Sun Xingyao: "Let's go find a place to discuss this."
The three of them quickly reached an agreement.
Twelve, Thirteen, and Xiao Mumu were playing in the yard when Jiulang returned.
Seeing that he was alone, Xiao Mumu immediately asked, "Ninth Brother, where are the other brothers?"
“The other brothers went to your house. Ninth Brother came back to pick up the three of you.”
Little Mumu was puzzled. "Why would you go to my house? My great-grandfather and great-grandmother are here."
"You'll find out when you get there. I'll go tell Great-Grandpa, you guys wait for me here."
"oh."
