Chapter 1 The storm is coming

Liang Zhaoyi stood at the door, looking at the dark sky outside the door, and an ominous emotion surged in her heart for no reason.

"Mother, what are you doing standing at the door?" Guixing came over and put on a half-used cloak for Liang Zhaoyi, "The weather is bad today, it's windy outside. You stand at the door to blow the wind, be careful of getting cold."

Liang Zhaoyi frowned and said: "There is a trend that a storm is coming today."

Guixing did not understand the profound meaning of Liang Zhaoyi's words. She looked at the dark sky outside and said, "It looks like it's going to rain, maybe it will rain heavily." After saying that, she thought of His Highness and exclaimed.

He said, "My Lady, if it rains heavily, wouldn't it mean that Your Highness would get wet when you go to Wende Hall? What would happen if you get cold?"

Liang Zhaoyi smiled and said: "The rain won't come down for a while, so don't worry about him getting caught in the rain." After saying that, she looked outside the door again, "It's time to wake him up." After saying that, she went to the side hall.

Go.

[Yao Yao, the sun is shining on your butt, it’s time for you to get up and study. 】

As soon as I walked into the side hall, I heard myna Lai Lun shouting and dutifully asking her little master to get up. Unfortunately, his little master turned a deaf ear to his words.

When Lai Yun saw Liang Zhaoyi walking in, he gloated and shouted: "The empress is here, she's going to spank Yao Yao."

Liang Zhaoyi walked to the bed and lifted the curtain of the bed tent. She saw an exquisite-looking little boy sleeping on the bed. Beside him, there were also a cat and a dog sleeping.

The cat is a big orange cat and the dog is a pure white Pekingese.

The barking of a dog brings wealth, and the barking of a cat brings wealth.

When Lai Fu saw that the visitor was Liang Zhaoyi, he wagged his tail at her.

Laicai stood up, stretched lazily, and then walked elegantly in front of Liang Zhaoyi.

Liang Zhaoyi reached out and touched Laicai's little head, and Laicai screamed twice in comfort.

Laifu stretched out his tongue and licked the sleeping little master, and whispered to him twice.

The little master in his sleep pouted and said, "Lai Fu, let me sleep a little longer."

Laifu shouted: "Little master, the queen is here, you have to get up."

"I'll sleep a little longer, just a little while longer."

Seeing this, Liang Zhaoyi had no choice but to take away her son's quilt. Then, she picked up her son.

Zhao Yao woke up from the cold. He opened his eyes in a daze and softly called to Liang Zhaoyi: "Mother Concubine."

Seeing her son's lovely appearance when he just woke up, Liang Zhaoyi felt soft in her heart. She couldn't bear to wake her son up, but her son had to go to Wende Hall to study. If he didn't wake him up, he would be late for going to Wende Hall.

She rubbed her son's cute little face so hard that he screamed.

Zhao Yao's little face was deformed by his mother-in-law's rubbing, and his sleepiness was naturally rubbed away.

"Concubine, I'm awake, please stop rubbing my face." Every time Concubine did this, he felt like a layer of skin had been rubbed off his face.

Liang Zhaoyi pinched her son's little face again, then let him go and started to dress him.

After getting dressed, Zhao Yao ran to the penthouse next door to change clothes and wash up.

After washing, he took Lai Fu and Lai Cai to the dining hall. As soon as he walked out of the side hall, a thunder suddenly sounded, which startled him.

Boom, there was another loud noise, and Zhao Yao felt that the earth was shaking.

Then, the dark sky was torn in half by a purple lightning bolt, which was very terrifying.

Zhao Yao stared at the torn sky with wide eyes, opened his small mouth and exclaimed: "Is it so scary so early in the morning?"

Laifu barked twice; "It's going to rain heavily."

"What, it's going to rain heavily?" Zhao Yao said in shock, "It seems to be spring now, not summer, right?" Just after he finished speaking, he suddenly thought of something and laughed, "If it rains heavily, then I will

There’s no need to go to Wende Hall to study.”

Lai Cai poured cold water on Zhao Yao and said: "The rain won't fall for the time being."

When Zhao Yao heard what Lai Cai said, his face was filled with displeasure. He pursed his lips and said, "My happiness is in vain." After saying that, he skipped towards the dining room.

At this moment, a soldier walked into the palace. As he walked, he shouted loudly: "Great victory in Liangzhou, great victory for Your Highness, King Dai!"

These words were like the thunder just now, which shook today's morning court and also stunned many ministers.

Some people are happy about His Highness the Prince's victory, while others are worried. At least for the ministers who support His Highness the Crown Prince, this is not good news.

It didn't take long for the news of His Highness Daiwang's victory to reach the harem.

Zhao Yao was having breakfast with Liang Zhaoyi when Tongxi hurried in and reported to them respectfully: "Empress, Your Highness, the news just came that His Highness Dai Wang has achieved a great victory."

Liang Zhaoyi stopped the chopsticks in her hand and said meaningfully: "Sure enough, a storm is coming."

Zhao Yao was not very happy to hear the good news. He curled his lips and said, "Brother Two Emperors won the battle. Brother Nine Emperors will be proud again. He will show off again when he goes to Wende Hall later."

Liang Zhaoyi warned him gently: "He's showing off. Don't argue with him. Just pretend you haven't heard anything."

Zhao Yao nodded obediently: "I understand." After saying that, he took a bite of the meat bun, and then said, "Brother Jiuhuang's expression of success is so annoying."

"Just ignore him." Liang Zhaoyi peeled an egg and put it in her son's bowl, "Your second emperor brother won a big victory, there should be a dinner party tonight."

Zhao Yao frowned and said with a sullen face, "Concubine, can I not go?" His little head was spinning quickly, and he immediately thought of an idea, "I can pretend to be sick and not go."

Liang Zhaoyi smiled softly and said, "What do you think?"

Well……

"Concubine, don't laugh like that, okay? It's so scary, okay?" Zhao Yao was most afraid of Liang Zhaoyi laughing like this. The laughter made his scalp numb. He said reluctantly, "Can't I just go?"

Seeing that her son was so unwilling, Liang Zhaoyi comforted him and said, "Just go to the delicious food and don't worry about other things."

"Mother and concubine, I can't control it even if I want to." Zhao Yao shrugged and said, "The victory of the second emperor brother has nothing to do with me." The second emperor brother won a great victory in Liangzhou, and his father would definitely reward him with many things.

I am afraid that the number of people supporting him in the court will increase again, and the biggest headache at this time is the prince's brother.

"You are right to think so." Liang Zhaoyi did not want her son to participate in the fight for the legitimate son. Besides, they did not have the strength to fight for the legitimate son.

Liang Zhaoyi came from a humble background. Her father was just a county magistrate, and the rest of the family were ordinary people without any power. In addition, there were no ministers in the court to support Zhao Yao.

It would be the safest for Liang Zhaoyi, her mother and her son not to get involved in the fight for the right of birth. Once they get involved, they would be in danger.

Liang Zhaoyi had no extravagant wishes, she just hoped that Zhao Yao could grow up safely. When he reaches adulthood, he can successfully leave the palace and open a palace, and become an idle prince or county king. If she is lucky, she might be able to follow her son out of the palace and provide for his retirement.

"Forget it, I'll just go to the theater." Zhao Yao grinned, showing two rows of neat teeth, and smiled brightly, "Tonight's dinner will be very exciting."

After breakfast, Zhao Yao still went to Wende Hall to go to school even if he didn't want to.

Lai Fu and Lai Cai sent him out of Kunde Hall: [Yao Yao, study hard, we will wait for you to come back.]

Zhao Yao knelt down and touched Lai Fu and Lai Cai's little heads, "I'm leaving. You guys should be good at home."

Tong Xi walked behind him holding Zhao Yao's book and umbrella. Seeing him jumping up and down, he was worried that he would fall, so he hurriedly said: "Your Highness, be careful if you fall."

Zhao Yao suddenly stopped and waved to the sparrows standing on the palace wall: "Good morning."

The sparrows on the palace wall raised one wing in unison and responded to Zhao Yao's greeting: "Good morning, Yao Yao."

[Yao Yao, it’s going to rain heavily today, have you brought an umbrella? 】

"I brought it with me." Zhao Yao pointed to the umbrella in Tong Xi's hand.

The sparrow standing at the top waved its wings and flew to Zhao Yao's shoulder, then rubbed his little face with its little head.

Zhao Yao rubbed it back.

Laiqian stood on Zhao Yao's shoulder and chattered to him.

Zhao Yao responded to its words from time to time: "Oh, well...that's it..."

Tongxi saw Zhao Yao talking to the sparrows again, and murmured in his heart that every time His Highness spoke to these birds, he spoke very seriously and in a decent manner, making it seem as if His Highness could understand what these birds were saying.

Tongxi was right, Zhao Yao could understand the speech of Lai Qian and other animals. He could understand the speech of all animals.
