"Oh, it's the Father!"

When Zhao Duobao saw Emperor Qinglong, he cheered and trotted over, hugged one of Emperor Qinglong's arms with both hands, and said happily: "Father, why are you here?"

Emperor Qinglong was the most doting on this daughter. He reached out and touched her head, and said with a smile: "Why, don't you welcome your father?"

Zhao Duobao said: "Of course you are welcome! It's just that Father, you are usually busy with state affairs and rarely come to visit me and my sister. Why did you suddenly come here today?"

Emperor Qinglong felt a little guilty when he heard this.

In recent years, wars have occurred in Zhao State and several surrounding countries. Emperor Qinglong was worried about state affairs and worked hard to make every effort, even the harem rarely went to.

Of the five children, he often summoned three sons, but he rarely saw them once or twice a year.

"My father is busy recently, and I will come to see you more in the future."

Emperor Qinglong sighed lightly and said.

After Zhao Duofu finished practicing a sword technique, he put the sword aside, and then walked to Emperor Qinglong and made a quick bliss: "I've seen my father."

He saluted the old eunuch behind Emperor Qinglong and called "Master Sun" respectfully.

Emperor Qinglong looked at Zhao Duofu a few times, nodded, and said with relief: "Duofu, your swordsmanship has made great progress compared to before! No wonder Xiao Dezi said that you are a good material for martial arts practice and will teach you everything you can!"

The little Dezi he mentioned was Sun De, the old eunuch who was following him.

Sun De was poor since childhood and entered the palace as a eunuch when he was less than ten years old. Later, because of his cleverness and flexible eyelids, he was appreciated by the late emperor, so he asked him to study with Emperor Qinglong, who was still a prince at that time.

Sun De was diligent and studious, and had the ability to remember everything he saw. He had read almost all the imperial palace collections.

Later, he found several martial arts secrets passed down from the previous dynasty in those palace collections, so he comprehended and practiced by himself, but unexpectedly became a first-class master.

Sun De made great contributions to Emperor Qinglong's success in the throne and ascend the throne to the emperor.

Today, Sun De is in charge of Da Nei and is the most confidant of Emperor Qinglong. It can be said that his importance to Emperor Qinglong is even more than that of several princes.

Therefore, several princes and princesses, including the prince, respected Sun De very much and gave in three points.

Among the princes and princesses, Zhao Duofu, who has extremely high talent and gentleness in martial arts, is most loved by Sun De and regards himself as his own.

When Zhao Duofu was a few years old, Sun De began to teach her martial arts. Zhao Duofu is now among the top masters. Although her own reasons are her own, Sun De's careful teaching without any private attention is the most important thing.

Therefore, Zhao Duofu has always treated Sun De with courtesy.

"Princess Yifu is talented and has extraordinary qualifications. She has achieved her success today in martial arts because she studied hard and practiced herself. The role of the old slave is insignificant."

Sun De glanced at Zhao Duofu in a doting way and said modestly.

Emperor Qinglong waved his hand: "Okay, Xiao Dezi, you don't have to be humble. You teach me how blessed you will be rewarded. I remember this contribution in my heart."

He sat down at the stone table in the yard, greeted Zhao Duofu and Zhao Duobao to sit beside him, and Wen Yan talked to them about some small things.

"I heard that you two secretly followed Bang'er to Jinyang City some time ago, and we encountered some things... Can you tell me about it?"

Emperor Qinglong changed his tone and suddenly said.

When Zhao Duofu and Zhao Duobao heard their father mention this, they looked at each other and were nervous.

The two of them were bored in the palace and went to Qinwang Mansion to find their third brother Zhao Bang to play. They accidentally learned that Zhao Bang was ordered by his father to go to the border to inspect the border affairs, so they begged to go together.

Zhao Bang has always been doting these two sisters, but he is troubled by them, so he has to agree.

But the three brothers and sisters never expected that they would be assassinated by Hu people in Jinyang City. If it weren't for the rescue of the Yangjia Village, they might not have escaped.

Since returning to Jinyang City, the three of them have been tactfully hiding this matter in their hearts without telling anyone else, and even Emperor Qinglong hid it.

Emperor Qinglong suddenly said it, obviously already knowing it.

"Father, my sister and I were hiding it from you, because we were afraid that you would not let us go if you knew... I hope my father will forgive me..."

Zhao Duobao secretly looked at his father's face, and when he saw that he had no sign of getting angry, he said carefully.

"I won't blame you if I tell you the whole thing."

Emperor Qinglong's face was light, and there was no sign of joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness.

But his expression made Zhao Duofu and Zhao Duobao even more uneasy.

"Sister, say..."

Zhao Duobao hid behind Zhao Duofu, rubbed the corner of his clothes and said.

Zhao Duofu knew that at this time, it would be impossible not to say anything, so he adjusted his thoughts and explained in detail what happened to his brother and sister, Jinyangcheng and his party.

Emperor Qinglong listened with his ears, his brows were sometimes relaxed and sometimes frowned.

His three children were assassinated by Hu people outside Jinyang City. Emperor Qinglong had already learned about this before Zhao Bang and his three brothers and sisters returned to the imperial capital.

Emperor Qinglong was furious at that time, but his anger was not directed at his three children, but on the side of Hu.

He did not expect that the Hu people would dare to assassinate the prince and princess of Zhao in Zhao's territory. Fortunately, Zhao Bang and his sister were safe and sound. Otherwise, with Emperor Qinglong's iron-blooded personality, they might have sent troops to Hu and seek justice for their children.

"I didn't expect that the people who saved the lives of your three brothers and sisters were actually several villagers in a small village on the border of my Zhao State... This is a life-saving grace. Have you ever thought about how to repay them?"

Emperor Qinglong asked calmly when he twisted his beard with his hands.

Zhao Duofu was stunned. She had never thought about this question carefully and shook her head immediately.

Emperor Qinglong said: "But that child Bang'er is interested... He cooperated with the people from Yangjiazhai to open a restaurant in this imperial capital. What is the Yangjia Restaurant? Don't you know?"

"Ah? Is the Yang family restaurant... also worth the third brother?"

Zhao Duobao asked blankly.

She and Zhao Duofu thought that the Yang family restaurant was run by Yang Xu and others, and they really didn't know that their third brother also interfered in it.

Emperor Qinglong snorted lightly, obviously a little unhappy: "Although Bang'er's move is willing to repay kindness, he should not have any part in the restaurant, and it is the biggest! This is a competition for profit with the people!"

At this time, Zhao Duobao was thinking: Brother San is also one of the owners of the Yang Family Restaurant, so can I go there to eat and drink in vain in the future? Wow, so happy!

Zhao Duofu was worried that his third brother would be ordered by his father, so he hurriedly said, "Next time I see my third brother, I will convey his father's meaning to him and ask him to withdraw from the Yang family restaurant."

"No!"

Zhao Duobao blurted out a word. Seeing that his sister and father looked at him, he quickly covered his mouth, turned his eyes and said, "I mean... Oh, I mean, third brother should not compete with the people for profit!"

Emperor Qinglong knew very well about his daughter, so why didn’t he know her thoughts? He stretched out his finger and pointed at her: “You girl, don’t think that your father doesn’t know your thoughts. Do you think that the third brother has a member in the restaurant, so he is going to run for free every now and then, isn’t it?”

Zhao Duobao was willing to admit it? His head was shaking like a rattle: "I'm not! I don't!"

Emperor Qinglong glared at her, then stood up and prepared to leave.

Before leaving, he thought for a while and said to Zhao Duofu: "When you meet Bang'er, tell him for your father that since he has mixed up in the restaurant, it is not good to suddenly withdraw... Since he has taken other people's money, he wants to keep others safe, which can be regarded as repaying the other party's life-saving kindness!"

Zhao Duofu knew that his father would no longer pursue this matter, so he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and nodded, "Duofu remembers it!"
