Chapter 499 Don't call me brother-in-law, I'm afraid!
After being reminded by Shi Minghua, Zhao Chengshou stayed by Zhao Hu's side and talked to him a lot about some of the past events the two had experienced together from the Supreme Five Years to the present.
But Zhao Hu still didn't respond.
This made Zhao Cheng feel frustrated.
how?
Aren't I the person you care about most?
Before I got married, we got along day and night. Although you stood beside me when I was drinking and eating meat, even though you stayed outside the door when I slept in a brothel, and even though I stood by whenever there was danger,
Hiding behind you, but we still get along very happily, right?
We are very close!
Zhao Cheng tried hard to recall more things, but suddenly thought of Zhao Hu's past, and suddenly realized that he might be wrong.
What he cares about most is not me,
It's my dad!
Zhao Cheng hurried back to the room to discuss with Yuan Yun about returning to Yanchuan. After entering the room, he saw Yuan Xiu Xiu playing with Zhao Changli in his arms.
"His Majesty."
Yuan Xiu raised the child with both hands and asked, "Is your guard awake?"
"not yet."
"That's just right. You and the imperial sister can stay in the palace to celebrate the Spring Festival!"
"Your Majesty..." Zhao Cheng glanced at Yuan Yun and said, "I was just about to tell you that we want to set off back to Yanchuan in the next two days."
Yuan Xiu was stunned for a moment, then held Zhao Changli in his arms and asked, "Aren't you afraid that Zhao Hu will be damaged by the bumps on the road?"
Zhao Cheng said: "His physical injuries are recovering. A slight bump is okay. It's just that if we don't leave, we won't be able to go home in time for the holidays. We promised our father when we came out."
Yuan Xiu looked at Yuan Yun and asked, "Sister Huang, what do you mean?"
Yuan Yun smiled and said: "Brother, this is something we agreed upon before we came here."
"Huh..." Yuan Xiu said regretfully: "Okay, I just don't want to give a courtesy. I don't know when I can see you again."
Yuan Yun walked up to Yuan Xiu, rested her head on his shoulder, looked at Zhao Changli and said, "If you miss me and Chang Li, please send us a message. I will try to bring Chang Li to see you every one or two years.
"
Yuan Xiudao: "Sister Huang, you must keep your word!"
"When did sister lie to you?"
"That's true……"
Yuan Xiu hugged Zhao Changli tightly and suddenly sighed.
Yuan Yun asked: "Why are you sighing like this!"
"I don't know." Yuan Xiu shook his head and said in a low mood, "I just feel like I can't see you anymore."
Yuan Yun said: "It is easy to have this feeling when we are far apart, as if every parting is the last time we see each other. Don't think too much, you are still young, take care of yourself, and I will enjoy the blessings with you in the future."
"Yes!" Yuan Xiu raised Zhao Changli high again and said with a smile: "From now on, I will give the best things in the world to Changli!"
As he said this, Yuan Xiu did not forget to glance at Zhao Cheng and said, "You, the father, will take advantage of me."
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty!" Zhao Cheng curled his lips and thought, why are you pretending to be a big-tailed wolf? If you have any good things in the future, you will have to spend my money to buy them?
Yuan Xiu asked: "Are you sure when you will leave?"
Zhao Cheng said: "We will clean up tomorrow and leave the day after tomorrow."
"Okay, I will host a banquet for you tomorrow night."
"Your Majesty, I have one more thing to tell you." Zhao Cheng walked to Yuan Xiu, took his son and handed it to Yuan Yun.
Yuan Xiu smiled and said: "What's the matter? Do you want to invest in my Yuxin Palace?"
Zhao Cheng: "..."
What's going on with this emperor?
Are you obsessed with money?
Zhao Cheng said softly: "Although Chen Jiudao and Tulip are vicious, the most powerful person at Mujing Bay that night was actually a man named Luo Ying. If he can't serve your majesty, it will be a disaster for your majesty!"
"Zhao Cheng, you are so brave!" Yuan Xiu suddenly became angry.
Yuan Yun quickly hugged Zhao Changli and turned away, scolding: "Please keep your voice down, you're scaring the child!"
Yuan Xiu quickly pulled Zhao Cheng aside, lowered his voice, and said angrily: "Zhao Cheng, you have to go too far."
Zhao Cheng said: "I can contribute money to invest in Yuxin Palace. Yes, invest in Yuxin Palace!"
Yuan Xiu said with a sullen face: "You regard me as your sword? I am not an assassin organization, how can I be moved by money?"
Zhao Cheng chuckled and said: "This is good for me, but it is also good for Your Majesty!"
Yuan Xiudao: "What a benefit! Luo Ying is the master, the master of Dajing. If there is a fight with the Southern Zhou Dynasty, Luo Ying will be an indispensable force for Dajing! Then as you say, it will not be used by me.
The grandmaster must be killed, then do I have to kill Yang Taozhi first?"
Zhao Cheng said: "That is my sworn sister, your relative, someone who is firmly convinced of His Majesty!"
"roll!"
"His Majesty……"
"do not talk!"
Yuan Xiu came up to Zhao Cheng, stared at him and said: "After all, the left prime minister is an important minister of the country. It is enough to kill his two masters. If this matter continues, it is because I am partial to the right prime minister's office. Please tell me
Come on, this matter ends here, don’t mention it again!”
"yes……"
"You just said you would invest in Yuxin Palace for me, and I am very pleased."
Zhao Cheng was shocked: "When did I say that??"
"You also want to raise a child, so don't spend too much money. Just get two million taels for your own money. Including the previous ones, the total is ten million taels. Remember to deliver it as soon as you get back."
Yuan Xiu deliberately raised his voice and said with a smile: "Sister Huang, my brother-in-law is so polite. He begged to contribute to my new Imperial Palace, which makes me feel embarrassed!"
Zhao Cheng's face darkened.
"Brother-in-law..."
"Don't call me brother-in-law, I'm afraid!"
"Hahaha, brother-in-law is so funny!!"
I'm teasing your sister!
Zhao Cheng's whole body felt bad.
Come on this trip, ten million taels of silver are gone!!
Yuan Xiu, are you a gold-eating beast??
Zhao Cheng looked at Yuan Yun and said leisurely: "Madam, why don't we leave tomorrow..."
In mid-December, it started to snow lightly in Changsui City, and Zhao Cheng and Yuan Yun set off on their way back to Yanchuan.
If everything goes well, we can make it back before the Spring Festival.
Zhao Cheng walked for a while in front of the team and saw Zhao Yan tightening the reins of his horse and stopping behind, looking at Changsui City longingly.
Zhao Cheng rode over and said, "What are you looking at?"
Zhao Yandao: "I don't know where she went?"
Zhao Cheng smiled and said: "If she does not return to Zuo Xiangfu, then she must be yours."
Zhao Yan asked: "Why do you see it?"
Zhao Cheng said: "You still don't believe your brother? I have experience in women."
Zhao Yan asked: "According to the information we inquired about, she should not be in Zuoxiang's Mansion, so why didn't she come to me?"
"How do you know she didn't come to see you?"
Zhao Cheng looked around and smiled: "Maybe she is hiding in the dark and secretly watching you."
"Ah?" Zhao Yan also looked around.
"I'm just guessing." Zhao Cheng turned the horse's head and followed the team, saying: "Be natural and be yourself. When things fall into place, I believe she will appear."
"Brother, why are you more confident than me?" Zhao Yan caught up with his head clasped.
Zhao Cheng punched his brother's chest and said with a smile, "Because I have confidence in you."
