The two of them walked and talked.

From time to time, the melodious singing of the opera troupe could be heard all around. Even if you don't understand it, you still enjoy it.

It was the first time for the troupe on the stage to face so many distinguished guests. They performed very hard, and the audience burst into cheers and applause from time to time.

Seeing the beautiful flowers, listening to the good singing, and eating the delicious food, the guests were a little happy and didn't want to go back.

Time passed quickly and it was soon approaching dusk. No matter how reluctant everyone was to leave, it was time to leave.

After finally seeing off the last guest, Yun Xi collapsed on the bed tiredly and didn't want to move at all.

"I've basically chosen the troupe." Xiao Chenyi rubbed her calf distressedly and whispered to the side.

"The troupe was small and relatively simple. There were two children in it, about the same age as our two children. The troupe leader took a hundred taels of silver and sold the two children to us completely."

Yun Xi closed her eyes and hummed softly, which meant that she heard him.

Although she disagreed with the practice of people buying and selling children, this time it was about her two children. Yun Xi was very selfish and felt that buying and selling children was nothing.

"Next, I will let the housekeeper train the two children to make them look like that." Xiao Chenyi was actually very unhappy with other people's children pretending to be his own children and using their children to live in the mansion.

"Yeah." Yun Xi hummed again.

Xiao Chenyi was doing things, so she had nothing to worry about. What she was actually worried about was the two children following them to the capital.

"How about dressing up Xiu Qi as a girl?" she suddenly thought.

The eyes of the center of power are always fixed on boys. Girls are relatively safer.

Xiao Chenyi thought for a moment and felt that this was a good idea.

Half a month later, King Chen and Princess Chen left Yizhou with their servants. At the same time, because Princess Chen liked to listen to operas, she specially brought a theater troupe along with her.

Soon, rumors spread outside. It turns out that King Chen took a fancy to the leading actress in the troupe, and because he was afraid that the princess would find out, he deliberately took the entire troupe with him.

King Chen's reputation for lewdness and corruption also spread.

They walked all the way, listened to games and played, and finally arrived in the capital on the eve of the ceremony.

Xiao Chenyi took the princess and went to the palace to meet his father.

Seeing Xiao Chenyi, who resembled the late empress, the emperor's eyes couldn't help but feel hot.

"It's good to come back, it's good to come back."

"Where are the two children? I haven't seen them yet." The emperor looked behind them.

"Father, your letter only mentioned the two of us. I thought..." Xiao Chenyi lowered his head in embarrassment.

Yun Xi also lowered her head shyly.

emperor:"……"

Haven't these two been quite smart before?

Unexpectedly, I went to Sichuan and stayed in that barren place for several years, and I actually became a lot stupider!

He shook his head helplessly: "They are still so young, how can any parent not take them with them. You really surprised me."

When Xiao Chenyi heard this, he quickly fell to the ground and knelt down: "Father, please forgive me for being stupid."

The old emperor snorted: "That's stupid enough."

Seeing that his son was not smart, he felt relieved.

Anyone who is an emperor hopes to be the smartest in the world.

I heard reports from the courtiers before that my son established his own business in Shu and made a lot of troubles. Now it seems that this is it.

Young people all like to mess around.

But they couldn't come up with anything, and in the end it all came to nothing.

The emperor felt relieved and his tone softened a lot: "When you come back, stay longer. Prince Chen's Mansion is still empty."

"Thank you, Father. I will let you arrange it now." King Chen kowtowed again in fear.

Then he took Yun Xi and knelt down to say goodbye.

After King Chen and his wife left, the emperor called his personal eunuch: "Xiao Fuzi, do you think King Chen will do anything detrimental to me?"

Xiao Fuzi, who was nearly fifty years old, immediately knelt down in fear and said: "Your Majesty, please don't harm this servant."

The emperor laughed at his scared look.

After the Queen's death, I haven't been so happy for a long time.

The emperor was in a good mood and said to Xiao Fuzi with a smile: "Quick, go to the warehouse to pick some precious treasures to reward King Chen!"

This kid has been away from the capital for so long, so his taste in jewelry is probably quite different.

There was concern in his voice, and it was more generous and excited, as if these rewards to the other party were a great kindness.

The emperor's eyes shone with joy.

Seeing that the emperor was satisfied, Xiao Fuzi breathed a sigh of relief.

The current emperor is really difficult to serve. He usually holds his breath. It's just a matter of losing your head if you're not careful.
