Chao Bingzhi, the current servant of the Ministry of Rites, was standing outside his mansion. Seeing that the mahogany sedan chair carried by the four people was getting closer and closer, Chao Bingzhi respectfully lowered his head and bowed his hands together, waiting for the mahogany The sedan chair stopped, and immediately a maid came to greet him with a silk umbrella. From the sedan chair, a beautiful boy of eleven or twelve years old walked out. Bing Zhidao waived the ceremony, and the latter made another bow before entering the mansion with the boy.

"Sir Chao, you will call me by my real name in the future," the boy entered the room and removed his cloak with the help of the waiter. 'Mingyue' will do."

"This..."

"It's the third prince who values ​​the old minister, the little prince doesn't need to worry too much." Chao Bingzhi and the boy looked at each other.

"So good."

Chao Bingzhi gestured to the waiting maid in the mansion to come forward, until the boy and the waiter he brought disappeared into the dimly lit corridor, and then he looked back with concern, the child has double Eyes that are only available in adults, calm and silent, if the third prince succeeds in seizing power, his direct son will definitely not be in the pool in the future.

The lively and charming fourth young lady Chao Yu took the initiative to come up and talk to Mingyue. The little girl has been clinging to him recently, and a little brother shouted endlessly. Without disturbing her, Mingyue didn't care about her behavior.

"Little brother, the snow melted today, is it going to turn in a few days—"

Chao Yu's voice paused, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on her face, and a crisp "brother" called out from her mouth, she left Mingyue in two or three steps and ran to the courtyard The fragrant plum tree looked along her line of sight, and saw a tall shadow standing under the tree, with blossoming yellow plums falling to the ground. The man looked like a young man who had not yet reached the crown, with a long black head. Her hair was twisting on her back, as if she heard Chao Yu's call, the other party turned around and pulled the corners of his lips lazily.

"Brother, brother, brother, brother—!"

"Chao Yu," Zhao Deng caught the girl who was rushing over, reached out and picked her up and weighed her. Across the thick cotton clothes, the girl was wrapped like a small ball, and noticed that her sister was staring at her. With her drooling expression, Chao Deng smiled and patted her little head: "I'm getting fat again."
