It was not sudden that Housekeeper Cao was waiting for Xiao Tianyao outside the courtyard. Housekeeper Cao has been waiting for Xiao Tianyao outside since early morning. However, he had been stretching his neck multiple times, but he didn't see Xiao Tianyao coming out. He finally saw Xiao Tianyao coming out, but before he could speak, Xiao Tianyao waved his hand to shut him up.
"Wangye…" Housekeeper Cao did not dare to say anymore and followed Xiao Tianyao obediently.
“Go, prepare water, I want to take a bath.” Xiao Tianyao’s voice was still low, but not as cold as before, which showed how good his mood was.
"Yes, Wangye." Housekeeper Cao smiled bitterly and immediately went to prepare water for Xiao Tianyao. By the time Xiao Tianyao finished washing, it was already half an hour later.
When Housekeeper Cao saw Xiao Tianyao coming out, he hurriedly said: "Wangye, Prince Zian has been waiting for you outside for more than 2 hours."
He was afraid that if he didn't mention it again, Prince Zian would have to wait.
“Zian?” Xiao Tianyao raised an eyebrow as if he was surprised by his arrival.
"Yes, it's His Royal Highness Prince Zian." If he had known earlier, he would have asked Prince Zian to come back another day, but how could he have known that their prince and princess would sleep in the room all day and night?
Their prince and their princess were really… young people, they were just different. It was hard not to envy them because of their good physical strength.
“Well, let him wait and pass the meal for me first.” Xiao Tianyao still has no intention of meeting anyone now.
After working hard all day and night, he also had to fill his stomach.
"Yes, Wangye." Housekeeper Cao laughed bitterly and silently mourned for His Royal Highness Prince Zian in his heart. He can't blame him for this matter. He has already reported it as soon as possible. It was their Prince who didn't give people a face.
After passing the meal, and eating… It was another half an hour. By this time, Xiao Zian had been waiting in the mansion for more than three hours. There was nothing but tea and snacks in the middle of the meal. However, there was no complaint on Xiao Zian's face. He quietly waiting in the hall, very calm.
“Is he still there?” Xiao Tianyao asked casually, after having had enough rest.
“His Royal Highness Prince Zian is still here.” Prince Zian was also a stubborn person. He waited as long as he said he would.
"Let him come to see benwang." Just because Xiao Zian can wait for so long, as long as he doesn't make unreasonable requests, he will comply.
In any case, Xiao Zian is also his nephew, and he has always been practical, so he does not want to kill them all.
Not long after, Housekeeper Cao brought Xiao Zian to the study. Xiao Zian walked in calmly, without any dissatisfaction, and saluted respectfully: "Imperial Uncle."
"What's the matter?" Xiao Tianyao never mentioned what Xiao Zian had been waiting for a long time.
Similarly, Xiao Zian didn't mention it, as if he didn't wait for Xiao Tianyao at all.
“Uncle, I want to take my mother and concubine to the fiefdom, do you think it’s okay?” Yes, Xiao Zian came here just to say goodbye.
He could see clearly what was going on in the capital. His mother tried to persuade him, but she couldn't stop him. Now, she didn't need his persuasion, his mother obediently let go.
The throne was no longer something that these princes could fight for. The throne belongs to the Xiao Family, but it no longer belongs to their father. Even if they fight to the death, they will not be able to get a piece of the throne.
"Fief? Where is your fief?" Xiao Zian originally had a serious illness and had no right to inherit, but the Emperor was very kind to him and planned to keep him in the capital without giving him a fief.
"I will apply to my father tomorrow. I want to go to Ancheng." Ancheng was a small city to the east. It was not a good place, but it was also not that bad. It was a bit shabby as a prince's fiefdom.
“Why do you suddenly want to go to the fiefdom?” Going to the fiefdom at this time was fascinating.
“My Concubine Mother only agreed yesterday. And I have always had a question, is it possible for Imperial Uncle to answer it for me?” Xiao Zian smiled bitterly but told the truth.
He has never had the idea of fighting for anything. What he has always wanted to fight for was his mother, but his mother has never given up. Just like his father, he always hopes for Imperial Uncle Xiao to die in the Central Empire and not be able to return to the East ever again.
Even after hearing that Imperial Uncle Xiao was back, she refused to give up as long as she didn't see him in person. It wasn't until yesterday that she saw the intact Imperial Uncle Xiao with her own eyes and learned that he would not go to Martial God Mountain or the Central Empire, she gave up on staying in the East and agreed to go to the fiefdom with him.
"What's the problem?" Although Xiao Tianyao had no feelings for Xiao Zian, his nephew, he was willing to give him some respect.
Smart people always get preferential treatment.
"Imperial Uncle, who gave the poison on me?" He searched for this matter for a long time without finding any clues, so he had no choice but to ask Xiao Tianyao for help.
"The Empress." Xiao Tianyao didn't hide anything and told him the answer readily.
In the East, except for the Emperor and the Empress, no one can attack a prince in the forbidden palace, especially a prince whose maternal family still has some influence.
“It turns out to be her, then I feel relieved.” After hearing this, Xiao Zian breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Are you doubting the Emperor?" Xiao Tianyao did not expect that Xiao Zian had such thoughts.
"Imperial Uncle has a lot of troops, that's why my father…" Xiao Zian smiled bitterly, which was regarded as acquiescence.
His father's behavior during this period made him unable to help but doubt. fr(e)ekiss.com
He suspected that his father would pamper him and his mother because she only had him as a son, and he was not destined to be a high official. So his father would pamper them with confidence. Otherwise, how else could he explain why his father treated him coldly now that he recovered his health and started to get close to his seventh brother?
"You do have a brain, but this matter has nothing to do with the Emperor." A tiger's poison doesn't know its son. Even if the emperor was afraid of his son, he would not attack his son. After all, Xiao Zian was still young at that time.
"Imperial Uncle, in the future…if my father abdicates the throne, can you persuade him to go to Ancheng?" Xiao Zian sincerely requested.
It was not his father who harmed him, they were still father and son. He was willing to be filial to his father and take care of him for the rest of his life.
“Benwang will tell him, you can leave now if there is nothing else." Now that Xiao Zian knew that it was the Empress who did it, Imperial Concubine Zhou's maternal family would not let it go easily. He will wait for the two women to fight each other in the palace.
The Empress, that woman, dares to have ideas about his wife, she will have to pay the price.
"Yes, Imperial Uncle." Xiao Zian was stunned for a moment before bowing and saying goodbye.
After turning around, he walked out of the study room. Facing the dazzling sunlight, Xiao Zian squinted his eyes, and a relaxed smile flashed in his eyes.
No matter what, he was finally able to escape safely from the trouble in the capital. Although he would not live a rich life, at least he would live a worry-free life and satisfy his mother's wishes.
He has no regrets about leaving the capital this time. His only regret was……
Xiao Zian stood outside the courtyard, looked back at Xiao Wangfu Mansion, and sighed softly.
His only regret was that he could not see Lin Chujiu and say goodbye to her.
That woman… He had once ignored her, hated her, and then had feelings for her. Unfortunately, when he realized his feelings for her, she was already his Imperial Aunt. He was not even qualified to speak to her……
“I’m afraid we’ll never see each other again in this life.”
Until the end, they will be stranger……
