"Chendi thought that the most important thing to do right now would be to save the situation." Seeing that the situation had stabilized, Yu Ling Jing opened his mouth to speak in a calm and composed manner. Of course, he was well aware that the stability of the situation was merely a superficial phenomenon. The treacherous officials had a lot of schemes in their minds.

"There is no need for you to say any more unnecessary words." The Crown Prince said coldly.

"I think even a large amount of supplies might not be enough to solve the problem in the disaster area."

The Crown Prince saw that Yu Ling Jing didn't seem to care about him and gritted his teeth. "Then what does Uncle Wang think?"

"The disaster has happened for a long time already. There must be a large number of doctors as well as people who are lacking in morals." Yu Ling Jing spoke slowly, he didn't seem to be doing things like he usually did in the army.

"You're right. "Continue." The emperor nodded, looking at Yu Ling Jing in approval.

"It's been so long since the disaster area was rescued by the imperial government. I'm afraid the people's hearts have been thrown into disarray, so I feel that I have to find a way to calm them down." Yu Ling Jing spoke slowly and methodically.

"Oh?" the Emperor asked with interest.

"To send someone of sufficiently esteemed status to the disaster area to let the people feel that they have been valued, this humble subject feels that this is the easiest and most effective method." Yu Lingjing lifted her head and looked directly at the emperor. His eyes were unusually clear. His Majesty couldn't help but think of how his younger brother was still young when he ascended to the throne. Back then, he had looked at him with those same eyes, but at that time, his eyes had been even more clear and gentle.

"Then, who do you think is the best candidate?" The emperor's mood suddenly became better.

"This son is willing to go." After thinking for a while, Imperial Wintry felt that this was a good opportunity to win over the hearts of the people, so he took the initiative and spoke first.

"Your Majesty, this subject believes that although the people in the affected areas need to be pacified, the crown prince's status is too honorable …" There were many sly ones in the imperial court. It was not as if there were none who disliked the crown prince. It was only natural that there would be people who could see through his intentions and wanted to obstruct him.

"I think so too. The epidemic situation in the affected area is serious. The Crown Prince is a pauper. It would be inappropriate for him to get infected by the plague!" Another minister objected.

The Crown Prince shot a glance at the two ministers who had spoken. Okay, he'll remember the two of them.

"I feel that as the Eastern Palace, I have the responsibility to go."

"Forget it, it's better if you stay in the palace and help me!" Everyone, how can you be a candidate? " The Emperor no longer looked at the Crown Prince.

"This subject is useless …" The officials kneeled down again.

"I believe that the prince is the best choice." "The general who spoke earlier spoke again." The prince had an honorable identity. He could pacify the people's hearts, and since he had been in the battlefield for a long time, he naturally wouldn't be afraid of such a small outbreak of disease. "This idea is the way of the prince …"

"Royal brother, what do you think? Are you willing to go? " Everyone knew that this was just a formality and that the order was given just like that.

"This subject naturally does not dare to disobey orders. "Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty." Yu Ling Jing was expressionless, all of this was within his expectations.

"In that case, withdraw from the imperial court …" The Emperor waved his hand.

"Retreat …" The eunuch's shrill voice rang out once more.

"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"

Yu Lingjing stood alone on the steps of the palace hall, looking at the slightly curling clouds on the horizon. It was unknown just what she was thinking in her heart. Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw the military general who had spoken up and down a few times, so he nodded slightly at him. Then, just as he was preparing to head back to his own residence, that familiar high-pitched voice rang out yet again from afar.

"Your Highness, please wait. The Emperor invites you to the imperial study."

Yu Lingjing turned and followed the eunuch.

"Royal brother, it's been a long time since we've sat together and played chess like this."

"Right now, my royal brother and I are no longer simply brothers. We are already subjects of the monarch. Besides, my royal brother has many responsibilities today, so it is inevitable that he will spend more time with my brother." Yu Ling Jing looked at the chessboard and considered his next step.

"Hehe …" Why must royal brother be so courteous? " The emperor said this, but in his heart, he was very satisfied with Yu Lingjing's attitude. It had to be known that no one would be allowed to spy on one's throne. Regardless of whether one was an enlightened ruler or not, during his reign, no matter how intimate one was, one could not show the slightest disrespect.

Two hours later.

"Royal brother, you're really …" His Majesty looked at Yu Lingjing with a helpless expression. "This younger brother was extremely respectful to him everywhere, but when he arrived at the chessboard, he did not give in at all." He had the pleasure of playing chess with his royal brother. If it were anyone else, they would all give way to me. I would have thought I was invincible. Hahaha … Although I've lost to my royal brother now, I'm still happy. "

"Royal brother, this world is yours. There is no invincibility in this world." Yu Lingjing's polite words slipped away more and more.

"Good, good, good. My royal brother said it well." The emperor's face was flushed with laughter! "There is a sudden change in the topic of conversation." "Have I grown old?"

"How could that be? When my younger brother heard your straightforward laughter, he didn't feel the slightest bit old."

"But I …" He still couldn't be at ease in this world! Crown Prince, I've been pampered since I was young. I do have the ability to do so, but my temperament … I will make this royal uncle of yours light up after a hundred years. " On the surface, he wanted Yu Ling Jing to help him against the cold wind, but more importantly, Yu Ling Jing had to remind him that he had no part in the throne, so he decided to focus on being his assistant!

"Royal brother, where are you going? This subject will naturally do whatever you do." Yu Lingjing replied evasively. How could he not understand the emperor's words? This was how smart people spoke to smart people. On the surface, they did their best, but they didn't say a single word.

"Hehe …" "That's good." The emperor stroked his beard and gave Yu Lingjing a meaningful glance. Could it be that his little brother's thoughts were going to change?

"It's almost time for lunch, so I'll stay together with my royal brother!"

"Thank you, royal brother." Yu Lingjing didn't want to stay, but she couldn't refuse.

The Emperor rose from his seat. He said to the eunuch standing outside the door, "Call Han Feng over for a meal as well."

"Chirp …" The young eunuch hurriedly walked out of the room.

"The scenery in the back garden is a good place to eat." The Emperor and Yu Lingjing walked on the flagstones.

"Hmm, my royal brother sure is humorous. He is also very interested." Yu Lingjing's voice was calm.

One by one, the maidservants placed the dishes on the ten tables of the imperial garden. Because the tables weren't big and there weren't many dishes served, they all looked delicate, and the smell was quite fragrant.

"Father... This son has come late, and has troubled royal father to wait for a long time. " Imperial Winds walked over, looking as if he hadn't seen Yu Ling Jing.

"Why didn't you call him uncle when you saw him?"

"Oh, I wasn't paying attention. I hope that Imperial Uncle can forgive me. " Even though Yu Hanfeng said he was sorry, he didn't seem to care. The emperor didn't say anything, but smiled and nodded.

He was pretending to be happy. Yu Ling Jing sneered in his heart. He did not have any bad feelings towards his royal brother who loved his people like his children. However, his status as an official and the hegemony of a superior that his royal brother naturally revealed made him feel that they were a family. However, as a member of the royal family, isn't acting your best?

"Royal Uncle, you're really smart. Your performance in the imperial court just now was really admirable!" The Crown Prince smiled, "Imperial Uncle, you must be very popular in the army!" After he finished speaking, Yu Hanfeng glanced at his father, and sure enough, his father's expression darkened.

Yu Lingjing picked up a mouthful of food and put it in his mouth. He politely smiled but didn't respond.

"Royal Uncle, this is your tacit consent? Royal Uncle sure is capable! " The Crown Prince continued to laugh.

"If I can't compare to you, Prince, no matter how popular I am in the military, I will only be with the barbarians." If I can't compare to you, no matter how popular I am in the military, I will only be with the barbarians. Yu Lingjing swallowed the food in his mouth and spoke unhurriedly.

"Hur hur." The Crown Prince smirked as he took a long sip of his tea.

The emperor's gaze also became increasingly dark and profound.

Like this, the eerie atmosphere finally passed.

"Royal brother, your servant will take his leave now." Yu Lingjing stood up and bowed.

"Yes." The emperor faintly replied.

"Then Father, your son is going to accompany you for a walk in this garden?" Yu Hanfeng smiled as he looked at the emperor.

"Alright, let's eat." The Emperor rose as well.

"Father, what do you mean by Uncle Huang's words?" Yu Hanfeng, who was standing behind the Emperor, cautiously asked.

"How many meanings can there be?" The Emperor obviously didn't want to say more.

"But he has the heart of a soldier …"

"If you have the ability, you can do it too!"

Imperial Wintry's complexion changed. He really couldn't figure out what his father was thinking.

"Feng'er, look at the fish in the pond." Imperial Wintry didn't know what was so good about the fish, but he still obeyed the order and looked over. There was a school of fish swimming in the pond. A black carp was leading the way. The red carp behind him was crowded, but it couldn't affect the black carp at all. Imperial Wintry was stunned. Did this father say he wanted him to be the black carp? Or could it be that only lowly people can use it, could it be that royal father was warning him not to rush to snatch it? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be shocked. It seemed that his ambition had been too obvious!

"Is this fish pretty!?" A kind smile suddenly appeared on His Majesty's face.

"Good." Yu Hanfeng replied with a blank look on his face.

"Alright, you can go first. I'll take a walk by myself."

"Father, your subject will leave first." The cold wind was now full of fire.

"Let's go." The emperor walked to the pavilion and anxiously gazed at the beautiful imperial garden. This was the grief of the imperial family. There was no true love, but only conspiracy? People, even flowers?

Yu Hanfeng kicked open the door with a gloomy face, scaring the servants in the room. What was wrong with this master? This Yu Ling Jing was clearly against him, and caused his father to become angry at him, this time, he would definitely not let him go. No one can steal what belongs to him, and those who disobey will perish.
