Chapter 804: Do you want three husbands and four sons?

Chapter 804: Do you want three husbands and four sons?

It rained that day.

The sky remained dark for three days in a row.

After Xiao Yao finished reviewing the memorials in the imperial study, she called Tang An in and asked, "Have you seen my brother?"

Tang An said: "Reporting to the emperor, His Royal Highness Prince Chen has arrived at the dining hall of Jinrong Palace."

"We're already here," Xiao Yao stood up, "That's great."

In the past few days, Xie Yunchu came back only once and has been outside the palace ever since. No one knows if his business is too complicated or for some other reason, but it seems to take a long time to complete.

Tang An nodded, "Yes, the prince is already waiting."

Xiao Yaoren had already left, so Tang An had no choice but to follow her. When they returned to Jinrong Palace, the food in the dining hall was almost served.

"Royal brother, I haven't seen you for a few days. You have lost a lot of weight." Xiao Yao greeted with a smile.

Xiao Chen stood up and clasped his fists, "Your Highness."

"No need to be so polite." They were always speechless every time they met, and she didn't know what to say.

After sitting down, Yi Rui called two young palace maids to come and serve the dishes, and then left.

"How many days has Xie Yunchu been out of the palace?"

"Well, I only came back once in four days." Xiao Yao said.

Xiao Chen said: "No wonder Tang An is the one who urges me every day."

"My brother is not a monk, nor is he away from home for some reason. Why can't he have dinner with me?"

"I asked for leave from you."

Ask for leave?

To calm you down?

If he were calm enough, wouldn't he take Aying even less seriously?

Xiao Yao smiled calmly and said, "You asked for leave only to not go to the court or the National Women's Prison, but you didn't say you wouldn't accompany your sister for dinner, right?"

Xiao Chen: “…”

He smiled and said, "Never mind, sometimes there's no point in arguing with Yao'er."

"That's right, my brother looks stunning when he smiles, and his handsome appearance is unparalleled in the world." Xiao Yao praised from the bottom of her heart.

"Your Majesty is right."

"You have been in the mansion these two days, so you may not know one thing."

Xiao Chen looked up at her while eating.

Xiao Yao continued, "Master Zhang from the Imperial Women's Bureau is not in good health and has retired to his hometown. The position of Dean is vacant, and Master Zhang recommended the third place winner, Lang Qing Chang'an, to take over temporarily."

In which generation did Qing Chang'an hold the position of Siye?

Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Yao. Have you agreed?

Xiao Yao nodded, "Yes, I have agreed. As the third place winner, Lord Qing is more than qualified to be the Dean. Moreover, if he goes, he can also give some advice to the students who are about to take the autumn examination."

"Brother Imperial, what do you think?"

Xiao Chen smiled, "Of course."

You've already made the decision, why are you asking him? You're just trying to see how he reacts, right?

How could he react?

But what about Xie Ying?

She had just broken off her engagement with Qing Chang'an, and now Qing Chang'an has followed her to the Imperial Women's Prison. She didn't know if she would be comfortable with it.

"Brother, don't you feel a little uncomfortable?"

“Why should you feel uncomfortable?”

Xiao Yao was so angry that she couldn't speak, "For example, you don't want Qing Chang'an and Xie Ying to have any contact?"

Xiao Chen smiled and shook his head.

Xiao Yao shook her head. It was over. It was over. Her royal brother really had no interest in worldly love and had no intention of falling in love at all.

I can only say that the incense given by Master Ding didn’t work!

That's it, that's it.

Xiao Yao said: "Zhen'er sent a pigeon message. She should have been at war with Yuecheng Kingdom in the past two days."

"As long as it's not a big mistake, it's only a matter of time before we take over Yuecheng State."

"Well, she asked if there was any trace of her sister-in-law."

Xiao Chen continued to eat and ignored her. Xiao Yao asked, "Father, Queen Mother is asking too."

"And Uncle Rong also asked."

Xiao Chen raised his eyes to look at Xiao Yao. Seeing that she was ready to get to the bottom of it if he didn't tell her, he said, "I don't care about this."

Xiao Yao opened her mouth, too heartless!

She ate two mouthfuls of rice. Today's dishes were not tasty, Xie Yunchu was not here, and the emperor's brother was really boring, too boring...

After meal.

Xiao Chen prepared to leave the palace.

However, when he got on the carriage, someone suddenly jumped onto the carriage, the door was opened, the curtain was lifted, and under the light of the carriage lamp, he could see clearly that the person was Xiao Yao, who was in casual clothes.

"What are you doing?"

"Go find Ah Ying."

I went to find Ah Ying, but I didn't know what to say in front of the girl, "Isn't it inappropriate for you to do this?"

"What's inappropriate?" Xiao Yao looked confused.

"It's not appropriate to look for Xie Ying!" Xiao Chen knew that not only Xiao Yao, but even Xiao Zhenzhen had gone to look for Xie Ying.

Otherwise, the girl might not have dared to express her feelings so boldly.

"Brother, you are too self-righteous. Do you think that I found Aying just to bring you together?"

Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Yao, isn't it?

Xiao Yao shook her head, "Of course not, I have other things to do with Aying. Besides, if you, my royal brother, are not interested, I think Aying should not be hanged on your tree. Qing Changan has a thousand faults, but he cares a lot about Aying!"

Xiao Chen burst out laughing.

"What are you laughing at, my royal brother?" The carriage was shaking, making Xiao Yao feel uneasy.

Xiao Chen said: "If she really felt that way, she wouldn't have made such a big decision to cancel the engagement."

Xiao Yao: “…”

"Isn't he just a concubine's eldest son..."

"The Emperor wants equality between men and women, so men can have three wives and four concubines, but women must have three husbands and four concubines, right?"

"Of course not!" No matter how you look at it, women are at a disadvantage. After all, women are more vulnerable to injury due to their body structure.

Xiao Chen smiled and shook his head. What's the point of saying he's just a concubine's eldest son? Yao'er wanted gender equality, so there was no way she would think there was nothing wrong with being a concubine's eldest son.

It was just to tease him.

Xiao Yao sighed, "That is Aying's life, not my life." When can monogamy be truly implemented?

After the Cang Yun Kingdom was stabilized and women were seen in the court and all walks of life, monogamy was put on the agenda.

As for those who already have three wives and four concubines, they should also work out a good plan when the time comes.

"Jian Wu, go directly to the academy."

Jian Wu outside did not respond.

Xiao Yao lifted the carriage curtain and asked, "Didn't you hear me talking to you?"

The Emperor's breath was only an arm's length away from him. Jian Wu swallowed and said, "Your Majesty, I must obey your orders."

Xiao Yao: “…”

She turned around to look at Xiao Chen, frowned, and squinted her eyes. Is he satisfied with the Jianwu she gave him?

Ask him to listen to his royal brother's orders, and he is so obedient that he even needs his royal brother's approval for such a simple request?

Oh, yes, as a secret guard, you naturally have to obey the orders of your master.

Xiao Chen said: "Go to the academy."

"It's the prince."

Xiao Yao smiled and patted Jian Wu on the shoulder, "Very good!"

Jian Wu: "Your Majesty..." If possible, he would wish the emperor would transfer him back.

Unfortunately, there is no way the emperor could take back his order.

"Don't worry, I am a very tolerant person and won't take it to heart." Then he sat back in the carriage.

Jianwu drove the carriage and closed the door.
