"Father, this is what we sons should do. But I didn't expect that my sixth brother would be here."
As soon as Yu Wenze changed his words, he turned his attention to Yu Wenxu, who was sitting behind him.
"Oh, isn't your sixth brother just getting married? I specially sent him here to ask how he has been these past two days."
The old emperor said casually.
"I see, it just so happens that we also want to know. How is your sixth brother's married life going?"
The person who said this was Yu Wenhao. As he spoke, he looked towards Yu Wenxu. At first glance, the look in his eyes seemed to be very caring, but if you look closely, there was more of ridicule in the depths of his eyes.
color.
"Thank you, Third Brother, for your concern. I've had a good two days."
Yu Wenxu looked like he didn't understand that Yu Wenhao was laughing at him, and he replied seriously.
"That's good. We brothers are really afraid that you don't even know what consummation is."
The fourth prince Yu Wendi also spoke.
After finishing speaking, several people couldn't help but laugh on their faces.
Only the old emperor, under his deep eyes, was a bottomless black hole like a cold pool, making it impossible to see through him at all.
Yu Wenxu knew they were laughing at him. Even though the hands hidden in his sleeves were clenched into fists, he still had a silly smile on his face and replied seriously: "Of course I know that."
As soon as he finished speaking, the smiles of the other princes immediately widened a bit.
However, since the old emperor was here, they naturally took some control.
Sikong Jin coughed loudly at this time.
The sound was so abrupt that the smiles of the prince and others stopped one after another.
Sikong Jin then spoke: "Didn't the princes come here to see me when they heard that this little king was back? Why are you staring at the sixth prince? Isn't it funny that we are all siblings and can kill each other?"
When he said this, he was different from his usual playful smiles with Yu Wenxu and Prince Rui, and his tone of voice was not to mention overbearing.
It was obvious at first glance that he couldn't stand them laughing at Yu Wenxu, so he said this specifically.
As the prince, Yu Wenze could not afford to wear the word "fratricidal", so he quickly clarified: "Young Prince Rui's words are wrong. We are just caring about our sixth brother, how could we commit fratricide?"
In front of the Emperor Father, young Prince Rui must weigh his words carefully."
Yu Wenze's words were obviously a secret warning to Sikong Jin to be careful what he said in front of the emperor, otherwise he would suffer the consequences.
But Sikong Jin was not afraid and retorted: "Care? It turns out that you, Prince, care about the Sixth Prince like this on weekdays. I have been gone for three years, and I thought you would be more mature, but now it seems that you are still the same. Your Majesty,
The prince's position is small, but the throne is great. How can such a person inherit the throne?"
"Little Prince Rui, you..."
When Prince Yu Wenze heard that Sikong Jin had put everything on the table that should be said and should not be said, he immediately became anxious. He glanced at the old emperor, pointed at Sikong Jin and was about to get up.
But at this moment, the old emperor said at the right time: "Prince!"
When Yu Wenze heard the sound, he immediately stopped moving and sat back down.
The other princes looked ashamed, and they all sat with their heads bowed, not even daring to look at the old emperor.
"Little Prince Rui, this is my family matter. Although what you just said makes some sense, it is also a bit too much. In my opinion, the Crown Prince, the Second Prince, the Third Prince, the Fourth Prince, and the Fifth Prince do care about me.
Only six people are like this. It's okay for brothers to joke around on weekdays."
When the old emperor said these words, his face was serious, but not angry. He didn't seem to be angry. Moreover, his words were very decent, which not only protected his own face, but also the face of the prince and others.
"What the Emperor is saying is that what I have just said is indeed excessive. Your Majesty, please don't take it to heart. I am so unabashed in my words. When I was at the border, even General Yuchi punished me for this many times."
Sikong Jin is not a person who doesn't know how to wink. He said what he said just now intentionally to the old emperor, the prince and others. Now the effect has been achieved. No matter what the old emperor thinks, he still knows how to admit his mistake.
"Well, if that's the case, that's good."
The old emperor regained the initiative in speaking, looked at Yu Wenxu and said: "Old Liu, tomorrow is the third day for you as a bride to come in. On the day you return, you must not forget that you will accompany your concubine to Qingyun Villa.
Come back. Do you know?"
"Father, is this the reason why you announced your son's entry into the palace?"
After hearing this, Yu Wenxu asked.
"Well, one is for this matter, and the other is for the Dragon Boat Festival in ten days. When the Queen Mother returns to the palace, I plan to host a family banquet. Remember to bring your concubine with you."
"Father, this is inappropriate."
Ask him to bring a fool into the palace for a family banquet? How could Yu Wenxu be willing? He is already a "fool". If he brings another fool into the palace, is it okay? Will both the couple be laughed at? He won't do it.
.
What's more, his concubine is an "idiot". What if something happens?
"What's wrong?"
The old emperor looked stunned and asked in a cold voice.
"My son is afraid that if she enters the palace, she will cause trouble."
In a hurry, Yu Wenxu had no choice but to say what he was thinking.
"If you're worried about this, there's no need to."
The old emperor's words were somewhat unexpected. What do you mean by not worrying?
Yu Wenxu and everyone present could not figure out how his father could vouch for a fool?
"But Father..."
Yu Wenxu wanted to try harder, but halfway through his words, the old emperor waved his hand and stopped him.
"Okay, it's decided. You must bring your concubine to the Dragon Boat Festival in ten days."
"But Father, she is just a concubine after all."
However, Yu Wenxu emphasized again. According to the palace rules of the Daheng Dynasty, the royal family banquet can only be attended by the main wife. Yun Rongrong is only Yu Wenxu's concubine and is indeed not qualified to attend the family banquet.
"If I say she can come, she can come. Lao Liu, do you still dislike your concubine?"
The old emperor's words were a combination of soft and hard words, and his words were full of a tone that could not be rejected.
It has to be said that Yu Wenxu was really unwilling at this time, but at this moment, Sikong Jin quietly sent a message to him: "Bring her here as long as the emperor asked you to bring her here. Anyway, when others
In my eyes, you are also a fool. If she were here, don't you think you would save a lot of effort? Then she will become the focus of everyone's eyes, and no one will pay attention to you? "
