Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

"Take someone's parents and children, how can you bear it?"

"The matter has come to this, what should I do." Defang shook her head, "I'm just worried about tonight..."

"The concubine won't be able to see Yiyi and can't sleep anymore." Concubine Di was also sitting beside her. "As soon as the day breaks, my lord, you should hurry up to accept Yiyi and come back."

"I must, I must, I am more anxious than Madam."

Concubine Defang and Concubine Di sat until the fourth watch (Chou Shi) when there was a noise outside the door. After a while, Baili came to knock on the door, "My lord! My lord!"

Defang hurriedly opened the door, "What happened?"

"Your Majesty! The Duke Zhou in the palace said that the little prince was crying all the time, so His Majesty urgently called you into the palace."

"My lord" Concubine Di came over, "Go quickly."

Defang nodded, and immediately drove into the inner palace in a sedan chair, and went straight to the bedroom. He heard Yiyi's cry from a distance, and couldn't help but feel tense, and walked to the door of the bedroom at a faster pace, "I see Your Majesty!"

"Brother Huang! You're here." Zhenzong dragged Defang into the house, "Hurry up and benefit, he's crying so hard that he's coughing and his voice is hoarse."

Defang stepped forward and "benefited!"

Seeing that it was Defang, Yiyi pushed away the servants and maids and ran over, holding Defang and crying, "Father!"

"Benefit, don't cry, the father is here."

Yiyi hugged Defang's neck tightly, "Father lied to the child! Father doesn't want the child anymore!"

"Benefit, don't benefit if the father doesn't have it." Defang also choked up

"Why did the father leave!"

"Father...Father didn't leave..."

"Father is lying... cheating..."

"Father...Father was drunk...just now... fell asleep, so...that's why I didn't come here..."

Yiyi let go of his hands and held Defang's face and smelled it, "Father...drinking..."

"My father didn't lie to Yiyi, did I?" Defang wiped Yiyi's tears, "Good boy, don't cry."

"Father King" Yiyi gasped, "The Empress said that Father King doesn't want children anymore..."

Hearing this, Defang looked up at Empress Liu, Zhenzong also looked at her in surprise, Empress Liu hurriedly said, "My lord, I misunderstood, I told Yiyi that the lord is drunk, so don't go back to the palace today."

"No," Yi Yi panted, "Aunt Huang, you said that my father doesn't want me anymore, and he wants to give me to Uncle Huang."

"My palace...Your Majesty, that's not what the concubine said..."

"Okay." Zhenzong felt distressed seeing Yiyi crying like this, "No matter what you said, it's good that Yiyi is fine now."

Defang was very upset, but Yiyi couldn't say anything in this state, so he touched Yiyi's face, "Yiyi, father is fine now, let's take you home."

"Yeah." Yiyi nodded, holding Defang in his arms, "Father, stop drinking...don't want a baby..."

"Why doesn't the father want to benefit? The father will always guard benefit." Defang patted benefit on the back. "Father won't drink anymore, not at all."

Yiyi was still crying and coughing badly, Defang hugged Yiyi, "Your Majesty, I will take Yiyi back to the mansion and let the national player show him."

"Okay, let's go back."

After Defang left, Zhenzong looked at Empress Liu and said, "Why did you tell Yiyi those words!"

"The concubine also wants him to stay, he is His Majesty's child."

"Then you can't talk to him like that! Such a young child, when he hears that his parents don't want him, how scared he must be."
