Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

At this time, a man walked up to Baili and squatted down. Baili felt a burst of hot air on his face, which was still very fragrant. Cried?"

"Who... who's crying?" Baili rubbed his arms against his eyes, "Why didn't you go back to the house and came here again."

"I waited for you in the house for a long time without seeing you come back, so I brought the rice hot again. You can eat it while it's hot." Bai Xiaopeng brought the rice to Baili, and put a piece of paper on his arm. Clothes were draped over Baili's body, and he sat aside, Baili said, "Aren't you going back?"

"You and your aunt have to watch the night, and I don't want to go back to the house. I'm here to accompany you, and I can still talk."

Baili looked at the steaming rice in his hand, then turned his head to look at Xiaopeng beside him, and put his arms around Xiaopeng's shoulder, "Xiaopeng, my good son."

"Father, Xiaopeng will take good care of you and aunt."

"Okay, okay." Baili nodded movedly, then calmed down and asked, "Did you go home and see Haobo in the past few days?"

"Yes, I went back to look at it yesterday. Haobo's classwork has improved again recently, and his handwriting is beautiful. I also asked when you will go home."

"Go home." Baili sighed softly, "Wait for the prince to recover, Xiaopeng, you should go back often and take good care of the family and Haobo on behalf of me and your aunt, just say... I miss him very much, if it weren't for the prince, what would Haobo do?" To be able to study in such a good school, tell Haobo that he must study hard and don’t let the prince down.”

"Well, my aunt said the same thing, and she even made clothes and shoes for Haobo. Haobo likes it, dad, don't worry, Haobo is very obedient."

"If only my brother was still alive."

"Father." Xiaopeng held Baili's arm, "Uncle Baicheng has a spirit in the sky. He must be very pleased to see you and Haobo living well. Uncle Baicheng doesn't want to see you sad either."

Baili nodded, shook Xiaopeng's shoulder, and then ate in silence. Xiaopeng picked up the soup cup and covered it with his hand, and stayed with Baili in front of Defang's bedroom.

It was half past Mao o'clock the next day, before dawn, the guards of Nanqing Palace had already completed their drills and changed their guards, and everyone began their duties for the day. Concubine Di also got up early, and by this time the hot porridge was ready. In the dormitory, Baili and Xiaopeng wiped Defang's face and hands. When Concubine Di came, they knelt down and saluted, "Kowtow to see your mother."

"Baili? Get up quickly." Concubine Di asked, "Didn't Xiaopeng keep vigil last night?"

"Back to your mother," Xiaopeng said, "Father... he still blames himself, so he... has to guard the prince."

Concubine Di sighed and nodded, "Baili, the lord is fine, don't think about it anymore, go to sleep."

"Small ones are not sleepy."

"My lord can't do without you to take care of me. If I'm not energetic, I won't be able to take care of her well. Now my lord needs to rest more. You should go to sleep too, and come back when you have enough energy."

Ke'er touched Baili, "You can go if you are told by your mother, otherwise you will be sleepy and groggy, how can you take good care of the prince."

Concubine Di nodded, "Yes, the prince will stay in bed for three days and won't go anywhere. You and Ke'er will also go home to see your family for the past two days. I heard that Haobo misses you very much. Take Xiaopeng back to see him too." , get together as a family, talk to your parents, brothers and sisters-in-law, and feel at ease, and you will worry less in the palace."

Baili, Ke'er and Xiaopeng listened to this and saluted "Thank you, ma'am"

Defang, who was lying on the bed, said, "Well...you have been talking for a long time, and no one cares about the lonely king?"

Concubine Di smiled, "How could it be? We all have to take care of the prince. Baili, don't be so polite for the three of you in your family. This palace has just made the porridge. Help the prince use some."
