The Transmigrated Life of a Salty Fish Family

Chapter 877 Tian Family Father and Son
Wang Deshan spoke softly to people, subtly establishing relationships.

Seeing that the people serving His Majesty were all willing to give him face and were kind and gentle, I felt much more at ease.

The King carefully chose his words, showing concern yet remaining composed, and inquired in detail about his father's health.

It was mostly the eunuchs who were talking.

The emperor's occasional words of reply were enough to make the King of England overjoyed.

Father and son sized each other up.

Compared to the Emperor's overt observation, the King of England's approach appeared more covert and less honorable.

The tender moments were fleeting, but soon turbulent waves arose.

As the eunuch quietly announced the news, amidst the chaos at the palace gates, King Wu and King Han, upon hearing that King Ying had been summoned to the palace, rushed over to request an audience. The county princess was then taken away by the guards of King Ying's residence...

The King of England clenched his fist secretly, inwardly praising Yan Er for his excellent work!

"Father, perhaps the people under my command made a mistake and brought Xia'er back like this. Perhaps there was something that made them misunderstand. My men are good at marching and fighting, but they are clumsy and careless when it comes to delicate matters. Father, please don't blame me. It's all my fault for not teaching them well."

The King of England produced his prepared speech and delivered it fluently.

The emperor laughed angrily.

This was because they were afraid he wouldn't agree, so they acted first and informed him later.

The King of Wu and the King of Han were accustomed to entering the palace, so why did they cause such a disturbance at the palace gates?

What a coincidence!

He wouldn't believe it if you said there wasn't a scheme by the boss.

good very good.

He used all of his limited intelligence on his father and brothers.

"Father, please don't send me away. I've finally managed to enter the palace, and I want to spend more time being filial to you."

The King of England bit his tongue hard, tears welling up in his eyes. He looked up with teary eyes and said, “Father! The North is really tough. Spring and summer are alright, but once autumn comes, the cold wind whistles and stings your face. Winter is even more bone-chilling. But physical suffering is nothing compared to the suffering in my heart. Your son misses you so much, Father!”

"I miss my father, my mother, and Xia'er!" The Prince of Ying became more and more emotional as he spoke, tears streaming down his face. He wiped them away, and they became even more of a mess.

"I finally made it to the capital, hoping to be reunited with my father and to spend some quality time with you. But you've fallen ill again and won't even let us come to the palace to visit you. And now, my mother is suffering from a cough again. I'm so worried!"

Xia'er is still young, and I'm still a child myself. How can I expect her to fulfill my filial duties in the palace? My other brothers all have princesses who have entered the palace, but my princess isn't by my side. I can only worry anxiously in the mansion. Father! If you don't let me in, your son, your son will…”

"What do you intend to do?" The old emperor asked with interest, a glint of light flashing in his cloudy eyes.

The King of England wanted to say defiantly, "Your subject will storm the palace to see me," but in the end he swallowed his pride and said, "Your subject will stay at the palace gate and not leave!"

If it were a young child, such tantrums would be rather endearing.

But the emperor felt a burning pain in his eyes at the sight of his eldest son.

"Someone, wash the King's face." Although his tone was disdainful, his expression softened considerably.

The servants in the Qianqing Palace were all shrewd and capable, so they never missed the changes in the emperor's expression, and they served the Prince of Ying with even greater care and attention.

Even Eunuch Wang couldn't reach it.

The King of England had washed his face and changed into a new robe. He finally had a seat with his father and no longer had to stand.

Only now did this father and son, from the imperial family, have a proper chat about everyday matters.

The emperor asked about the crown prince.

The King of England then gave his son a good scolding, saying that he was mediocre in both literature and martial arts. In the great battle against the Western Rong tribes of Xizhou, when the three armies were at the gates of Huju City, he was almost completely wiped out. Fortunately, his subordinates were brave and managed to drag him out of the midst of a ten-thousand-strong army.

The King of England said with lingering fear, "It was a close call that I lost my life! Fortunately, I was protected by my father! I only injured my leg, it was truly a stroke of luck!" The Emperor thought to himself, "The Crown Prince is a hundred times better than you. If it weren't for Yan'er, even if you, the King of England, have merit in guarding the border and suppressing rebellions, you would not be worthy of my attention."

He then asked about the Crown Prince's wife.

The King of England spoke highly of his daughter-in-law, whom he had bestowed upon him by the Emperor.

"It's all thanks to Your Majesty's discerning eye that you chose Lady Wei. The Crown Princess is kind and filial. That child is very generous and not petty or short-sighted. She has a kind heart, and the people of Guanzhou have benefited greatly from her. She is truly a blessed person. She became pregnant not long after entering the family. Judging by the time, I will soon become a grandfather! Oh dear, thinking about it carefully, this child is also very fortunate. If she is born safely, she will be the first of your great-grandchildren!"

The King of England did not include his peers who were born out of wedlock.

The emperor didn't think he was wrong either.

This has always been the case with royalty.

The old man's face beamed with even more smiles.

"Tell the servants to be careful, and when the child is older, bring him to the capital to see me."

As for Lady Wei, she was the daughter of a merchant, and the emperor did not value her much. However, the court was empty, and he wanted the Wei family to help supplement the Guanzhou area. But she became pregnant so quickly, which was the greatest achievement in the royal family.

The emperor offered a reward, and the King of England expressed his gratitude on his behalf.

Just as he got up, he heard someone outside announcing something.

The King of Wu and the King of Han are already waiting to be received outside the palace.

The emperor lowered his eyes, and the smile on his face vanished, as if it were a fleeting moment.

"Xuan!"

……

Yan Lao Er raised his hand, and Jiu Xiao landed steadily on his arm.

He beamed with joy: "Jiuxiao, record it quickly!"

His eagle eyes flickered slightly.

"At this moment, I am galloping on my horse on a main road in the capital city—no, a side road!"

"It's obvious to the naked eye that my riding skills have improved greatly!"

Yan Lao Er looked back, then turned back and said smugly, "Confirmed, no pursuers behind us, safe!"

"Just now, the Prince and I worked together seamlessly to bring Princess Yunxia out of the palace!"

"Hahaha! Applause is due here!"

Yan Lao Er paused for a moment with composure, as if he were really listening to the applause.

"Last time we talked about how Princess Yunxia was kept in the palace. The Prince of Ying was so worried about her, he was really anxious. You all know, as a father, how could I not help? But I have to admit, I know my own limitations. Today's victory is at most thanks to my role as the executor. The biggest contributor is Old Ye!"

"Young Master Ye said he could lure the King of Wu and the King of Han here, and lo and behold, they actually came! While things were in chaos, your father easily got your second uncle Sun to run away with the county princess. By now, the King of Wu and the King of Han should have already entered the palace. You say the old emperor is sick and won't see anyone, but with his third son blocking the door, how could he not see him? Today is also a lucky day for us, everything is going smoothly. The old emperor actually summoned our prince, which gives us an even better excuse. I think the King of Wu and the King of Han, as long as they're not stupid, will definitely seize this opportunity to go in together."

Yan Lao Er said regretfully, "It's a pity we won't be able to see it. I'm quite curious to see what it's like when the emperor's father and son meet. I heard from Lao Ye that the Prince of Wu and the Prince of Han are both strong contenders for the throne and are plotting something. It's only because our Prince doesn't go out that he has nowhere to vent his anger on us..."

Yan Lao Er froze, realizing he had said the wrong thing.

He quickly added, "Wife, daughter, I have to hurry back to the manor to settle the county princess, and then I have to go back to the palace to pick up the prince. I won't talk to you anymore, we can chat properly tonight when we're free!"

Uh, it's been about two months since my last update~
I'm so sorry~
When my son was taking the high school entrance exam, all the preparation, the exam itself, the registration, and the admission process finally came to an end, and only then could I, as an old mother, finally put my mind at ease.

The result was great; my son got into a top high school by sheer luck! (#^.^#)
After resting for a few more days, I feel like my energy and spirit have reached their peak!

Roll up your sleeves!

I'm declaring loudly: I'm going to update daily!
