Chapter 71: The little devil is big, and the queen mother is dissatisfied

After a long conversation with Xiao Heng, Huan Yu felt much more at ease than before.

After leaving Fenghe Palace, his steps became brisk unconsciously.

Ever since the Queen took the antidote yesterday, he has not seen any sign of Xiao Jiu until now.

But the Queen's words undoubtedly gave him great confidence.

As long as he is sincere and patient enough, Xiaojiu will understand his feelings sooner or later.

Of course, strategies still need to be paid attention to.

Xiao Jiu is not an ordinary noble girl. If he wants to fall in love with her, he has to put more thought into it...

Just as he was lost in thought, someone saluted him on the roadside: "Second Young Master Huan."

Huan Yu stopped and looked over intently.

This person is still young, he looks about eight or nine years old.

His features are clear and his actions are measured, and he has a maturity and stability beyond his years.

It is precisely because of this that the servant's attire is particularly regrettable.

Huan Yu suppressed the pity in his heart and took a few steps towards him with a slight smile.

The boy is none other than Leqi, the young eunuch beside Wei Luo.

Seeing that Huan Yu had already walked up to him, he hurriedly said: "My servant Le Qi is serving His Highness the Crown Prince."

Huan Yu raised his eyebrows. His Highness the Crown Prince asked someone to wait for him here. He clearly wanted to express his gratitude in private.

"Where is His Royal Highness now?" he asked.

Seeing him so cheerful made Le Qi a little nervous: "His Royal Highness is waiting for the young master in the pavilion by the lake."

Huan Yu smiled and said: "Eunuch Le, please lead the way."

Le Qi raised her hand and led him onto a cobblestone path.

Not long after, Huan Yu saw a pavilion by the lake.

"Master Huan, please." Le Qi stopped, turned sideways and raised his hand.

Huan Yu nodded and walked towards the pavilion.

The wind was strong by the lake, Wei Luo's bun was a little messy, and his childish little face was also blown red.

As soon as Huan Yu stepped into the pavilion, he made a big salute: "My benefactor, please accept Wei Luo's bow."

"Your Majesty, please don't do this. You will offend the ministers." Huan Yu quickly supported him.

This was also the first meeting between the two of them, but Wei Luo's behavior still shocked Huan Yu.

He even had a feeling that if it weren't for the lack of privacy here, the young prince would have knelt down to him.

Are you kidding? This is the future emperor of the Wei Dynasty. If he really kneels down to him, will he be able to speak clearly in his life?

Wei Luo said: "If the young master had not given me the antidote, my mother might have..."

"This is the duty of a minister. Your Highness is not like this." Huan Yu took him to the stone bench and said, "Your Highness, please sit down."

Wei Luo sat down as he was told, pursed his lips and said, "Second Young Master Huan... no, I should call you Uncle Ninth from now on."

"Your Highness already knows?" Huan Yu was a little surprised.

The young prince was only eight or nine years old, and his mother had suffered such a great disaster, yet he was so well informed.

Of course, this fully proves that Xiaojiu's angry words with Wei Yuan that day had spread widely, and everyone in the palace knew about it.

Wei Luo said: "Aside from my father, the emperor, my empress, and Anyang, Auntie Xiaojiu is the person I care about most.

The young master has a good character and is more outstanding than any man I have ever seen.

You will definitely take good care of Aunt Jiu, right?"

Huan Yu couldn't help but laugh a little.

This little prince is really a big kid. In just a few words, he not only told him Xiaojiu's status, but also put a high hat on him, and even made some insinuations about him.

He said seriously: "Yes, I will definitely take good care of the princess."

Wei Luo finally had a smile on his face.

"I heard that the young master has great martial arts skills, and his riding and shooting skills are also quite good."

Huan Yu said: "Your Highness is ridiculous, compared with the princess, the martial arts of the humble minister is not very good."

How could Wei Luo believe such words?

He didn't know how many times he had heard people talk about the martial arts competition between Aunt Xiaojiu and Mr. Huan.

Because they were equally matched, the two of them respectively served as the captains of the Qilin Guards.

He looked at Huan Yu with a smile: "Second Young Master Huan, although my Aunt Jiu is good at martial arts, her patience is very bad.

Every time he promised to teach me how to ride and shoot, he gave up halfway every time.

Can you be my teacher from now on?"

Huan Yu was really convinced.

He may appear to be stable, but he is actually shrewd and powerful. This little prince is really not a simple man.

Recalling the words of the Empress just now, Your Majesty is of mediocre character, with neither ambition nor ability, and can only maintain the peace of the Wei Dynasty by working hard to compensate for his weakness.

Perhaps when the young prince ascends the throne in the future, the Wei Dynasty will usher in a new atmosphere!

After Huan Yu left, Xiao Heng still lay back on the bed.

While chatting with Jimei, a young palace maid came to report that the Queen Mother had arrived.

Just as she was about to get up, the Queen Mother had already walked into the inner room holding the hand of an old nanny.

"Ah Heng is lying down so well." The Queen Mother quickly stopped her movement.

Xiao Heng couldn't be stubborn and could only ask Jimei to help her lean against the bed.

The Queen Mother let go of the old nanny's hand and ordered: "All of you, please step aside. The Ai family wants to talk to the Queen."

The old nun and the maids followed the instructions and exited the inner room, closing the door gently.

The Queen Mother sat down on the chair beside the bed and carefully observed Xiao Heng's complexion.

"Ah Heng, Aijia still doesn't look good when he looks at you. Are you tired again?"

Xiao Heng curled his lips: "Let the Queen mother worry about it. My son is already much better. It's just that recuperating the body is not something that can be done in a day. It will take some time."

The Queen Mother sighed: "The Ai family shouldn't have come to disturb your recuperation. It's really that we can't stay over at Muxian Palace."

Xiao Heng asked curiously: "Who is so bold and dares to disturb your peace?"

The Queen Mother pressed her eyebrows: "Who else can it be? The Qian Qian family from Wenyuan Marquis Mansion."

Xiao Heng's eyes flashed slightly.

She knew that if Xiaojiu's marriage was settled, many people would be dissatisfied.

Especially the Queen Mother and the Hua family. They have always been optimistic about Xiaojiu as the crown prince wife of Wenyuanhou Mansion. How can they accept such a result?

Xiao Heng smiled: "Mrs. Hua and you have always had a good relationship. Besides, even for the sake of Menghan and the others, you shouldn't argue with her."

The Queen Mother took her hand and patted it: "Some things should not be taken at face value. That person from Qian Qian is good at everything, but his temper is too stubborn and too strong.

After marrying into the Wenyuan Marquis' Mansion for decades, she kept the Marquis at bay and almost left the Marquis without an heir.

His Majesty did not do a good job with Menghan's affairs back then. But he was not as old as Wei Yuan at that time, so how could he keep matters in the inner house clean?

She didn't know how to persuade Meng Han properly, which made her lonely now.

It was easy to catch a cold, and he grew up safely to the age of seventeen. He was handsome and talented, and he couldn't find a good match, so he had to keep an eye on that girl Xiaojiu.

Since you want to keep an eye on me, you should use some skills to keep an eye on me like you did on the Marquis.
