"Then we fell out." Lao Si said in a muffled voice.
"Is it true? I don't believe it..." Lao Liu looked at Lao Si playfully.
"Okay," the fourth child said sarcastically: "Not only did she not agree to help at first, she also persuaded me not to do it. After several times of persuasion, I didn't listen, so she went to complain to the queen mother, which made the queen mother and the father furious.
, saying that he himself is not a human being, and he also asked his son to not be a human being either..."
"I heard that even family methods were used, and my father didn't let go." The fourth child lowered his voice and said:
"You said that if my father doesn't let go, can I still back down? We fell out when we came back...well, it was her unilateral fallout. She ignored me for several days."
He said with a flattering smile: "Lao Liu, your fourth sister-in-law likes you the most, but you must help me."
"Oh, Fourth Brother, it is reasonable for my sister-in-law to be worried. It is taboo to place spies indiscriminately in the homes of ministers. Once the news leaks out, you will be the public enemy of all officials, and you will be attacked by both the government and the public."
Six sighed:
"Sister-in-law did this because she was worried about your situation."
"I know. That's why Father asked you to go to school so that you can stay out of the trouble." The fourth child sighed with a wry smile.
In fact, it was originally scheduled for the sixth child to take over from the third child, but his father let him take the class. He was quite happy at first, but now he realized that it was his father who was reluctant to let the sixth child go into such troubled waters...
"I won't stay out of it. If anything happens, we will handle it together." Lao Liu said firmly.
"Don't." Lao Si shook his head decisively and said, "Originally, it's enough for me to ruin the brand by myself, but if I bring you in, we'll be in trouble. Anyway, I'll be a feudal lord after I finish this job, so it doesn't matter.
You have to stay in Beijing and help big brother for many more years."
"Sigh." Lao Liu said depressedly: "It's true, old man. How could you let your own son do such a thing?"
"This is such a big deal that I'm worried about my father." The fourth child sighed and said, "Your sister-in-law also asked me, why do you have to do this?"
"I told her that the emperor is only one person and the ministers are a group of people. How can one person deal with a group of people? The only way is to keep a close eye on them so that they don't even dare to think of causing trouble. So we can only
Take this approach."
"Yes." Lao Liu nodded. His biggest feeling in the past few years was that 'the king and his subjects are of one mind' is the most ridiculous lie.
When starting a business, the monarch and his ministers may still be of one mind. Once the business is successful and there are no external enemies, how can the monarch and his subjects still be of the same mind?
"Your sister-in-law said that after reading the history books, no one who does such things will end well." The fourth child sighed: "She is extremely resistant."
"That's true." Zhu Zhen nodded. He remembered that none of the spy chiefs in the early Ming Dynasty died a good death.
"Then Fourth Brother, now..." He whispered: "How about I go talk to the old man?"
"There's no need to go." Lao Si took a long breath and said with firm eyes: "We, the princes, are supported by all the people, and in order to secure the world, we cannot spare our lives."
"Okay, I understand." Lao Liu nodded, and it was not surprising that the fourth brother answered him this way. If the majestic King Yan was really a man with a wife and children, he would not be able to become a great emperor.

At this time, the fourth sister-in-law and Miaoqing came out from the back hall together, followed by a group of maids carrying trays.
"Oh, sister-in-law, why do you still cook by yourself?" Lao Liu jumped up quickly and said with a smile on his face: "It's a shame, it's a shame."
"Why, you still want my sister to cook for you alone?" Princess Yan smiled, but there was a hint of thorn in her smile. "My sister has just started to learn how to cook a spoon with bare hands. If I don't help her, I can't let someone compete with her."
?”
"No, no, I don't mean that." Lao Liu smiled and said, "I like to eat whatever Miaoqing makes."
"Sister..." Xu Miaoqing tugged on Princess Yan's sleeve.
"It's okay, you are all afraid of offending him, but I'm not afraid." Princess Yan sneered while serving dishes: "Anyway, I have already offended a Ming prince, and I am not afraid of offending another one."
"Okay, fourth brother, I can't protect myself. I can't be a peacemaker." Lao Liu smiled bitterly at Lao Si.
"Have you seen it? Your sister-in-law is so good, it's really not for nothing..." The fourth child also smiled bitterly, but there was a trace of nymphomanism in his smile, which was really hopeless.
After saying that, he quickly waved his hand and asked everyone to leave. Not everyone could watch the Chitose family's drama.
"Your Highness, are you calling me a tigress?" Princess Yan thrust a pile of bowls into his hand, and the fourth child quickly turned around and placed the bowls.
"But no matter how powerful I am, will I stop you? What a tigress, just a paper tiger."
Xu Miaoqing stuck out her tongue at Lao Liu, looking dumbfounded.
"Cute." Lao Liu was also obsessed with it.
"Sister, just spare them." Xu Miaoqing persuaded her softly: "Brother-in-law must have no other choice. Isn't there a saying, 'It's hard to disobey an order'. Brother-in-law is the emperor's son, so he has to take the lead in safeguarding it."
The emperor’s prestige.”
Although she didn't know the reason, she could guess one, two, three, four.
"Yes, yes, Miaoqing is right." Lao Liu quickly followed up: "Sister-in-law, oh no, sister, I have talked with fourth brother, he is really in trouble. Not only must he fulfill his responsibilities as a prince,
I also want to be a good husband and a good father, which has been a dilemma since ancient times."
"Puch..." Princess Yan was amused by Lao Liu: "Uncle Liu, what do you want me to call you?"
"Sister." Lao Liu said shamelessly, "In my heart, you are my biological sister who is closer than my biological sister."
"If Princess Lin'an hears what you said, I will have to tear your mouth apart." Princess Yan laughed and scolded, then returned to her usual gentleness and dignity and said:
"Okay, Sixth Brother, there's no need to persuade me. I understand all your principles, but I also have my own principles, even if I can't change anything."
She paused for a long time, then Fang whispered: "But at least it will prevent His Highness from being too embarrassed when the storm comes."
"That's it..." Lao Si and Lao Liu understood immediately.
With Princess Yan's foreshadowing, even if the government and the public attack in the future, at least the queen mother will speak for the fourth child. The old thief can't completely put the blame on the fourth child's back... No matter what, he has to let it go
King Yan retreated completely, otherwise his mother would not be the first to spare him.
"Oh, I'm so stupid..." Lao Si hugged Princess Yan in emotion and said happily: "I thought my wife was quarreling with me, but it turned out that she was doing it for me, even at the expense of her own reputation, by acting for others.
watch."
"Let go..." Princess Yan struggled to break free and said, "My younger brothers and sisters are over there."
Only then did the fourth child let her go and said: "Take a lesson for them, they will be like us in the future."
"Are you ashamed?" Princess Yan had a charming look on her face, obviously enjoying it.
Xu Miaoqing was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in, but Lao Liu watched it with gusto. This was a genuine love scene of an emperor and an empress, and you couldn't see it for any money.
