Chapter 1744

After entering the palace, Rong Xu, as before, sent Liu Wei to the gate of Zhaohe palace. Then he took Xiao Li, who had changed his clothes, to Rong Jin's East bedroom.

On the way, Rong Su sees that Xiao Li is a child, so he should compare with Rong Ling or Liu Wei's routine words, and ask deliberately in the tone of greetings: "these years, is it hard?"

Xiaoli is happy to enter the palace and has a very good attitude towards Rong su. She obediently replies, "no hard work."

"What have you experienced in these years?" Rong asked

"There is no special experience," said Li

"Didn't it fall into the sea?"

"Yes."

"And then?"

"Good after that."

"Why did you come back so long?"

"Because I want to take a boat."

"Three years in a boat?"

"The boat will take a long time."

“……”

Rong Su is silent. He stares at Xiao Li for a long time, as if to make sure whether the child is perfunctory or not.

Then Xiao Li met Rong Su's eyes and said: "what do you want to know? Ask Uncle Rong and my mother. I don't know anything. I'm just a child."

Rong Su: "..."

After another quarter of an hour, Rong Su will take him to Rong Jindong's bedroom. At that time, Rong Jindong just came back from the upper study and was preparing for lunch.

When he saw Uncle seven coming with a young man, Rong Jindong didn't recognize him. After he stared at the young man for a while, he was surprised to find that this was not Xiaoli?

Rong Jindong suddenly stands up from the chair, and the palace people around him look at his master unexpectedly.

Rong Jindong immediately regained his composure, went forward and asked Rong Su for an, exchanged greetings, and then ordered all the palace people to go outside the palace.

When the palace was empty, Rong Jindong smiled, pinched Xiao Li's face and said, "I know you came back two days ago, but I didn't expect you would enter the palace. Did you come to see me specially?"

Xiaoli nodded her head obediently, looked around the environment of the hall, and looked at the table full of delicacies.

Rong Jindong took Xiaoli's hand and asked him to sit down, while Rong Su also sat down. "Haven't you eaten yet?"? Then we can use it together. I haven't seen it for many years. It's hard for Xiaoli to remember Xiaojin's brother. "

Rong Su doesn't want to disturb the two children. He goes to Shangqing hall to say hello to the emperor and leaves first.

As soon as he left, Rong Jindong deliberately said to the people in the palace outside the hall, "Uncle seven will go to see his father and the emperor to discuss the state affairs, and then I will take care of Xiao Qing's younger brother. Go to the study and take a leave with your husband, and say that I will not go in the afternoon, and hand in my homework tomorrow."

After the explanation, Rong Jindong went back to the main hall. Seeing that Xiaoli was still sitting without moving his chopsticks, he helped himself with the dishes and put them in his bowl. He said with a smile, "eat fast, eat fast. After eating, I have a lot to say to you."

Xiaoli picks up the chopsticks and eats the dishes. When both of them have finished eating, Rong Jindong pulls Xiaoli into the inner hall and sits beside him at the bedside to talk.

Xiaoli glanced at the decoration of the inner hall, but he had a number in his heart, but there was nothing on his face. He asked, "brother Xiaojin, how are you doing now?"

Rong Jindong pauses for a moment, then touches Xiaoli's head, and says, "OK."

Xiao Li said: "I was worried when I separated. Your father is not good to you, and your mother is a stepmother. Although the fifth prince will take care of you, you are not a family. As an outsider, the fifth Prince is not good to interfere with your family But now, I'm relieved to see you have a good life. Brother Xiaojin, as long as you really feel good, that's good. "

Rong Jindong converged and began to smile when Xiao Li entered the door. He stared at the young man who was much smaller than himself and asked in his voice, "what do you want to say?"

Xiaoli shook her head, still very happy: "nothing, really nothing, I just want to know if Xiaojin's brother is doing well, I have been very concerned about this matter."

However, Rong Jindong's face was stiff and his expression became very bad.

Xiao Li looks at him so serious, and he doesn't speak anymore. He drops his eyes in silence.

Rong Jindong got up from his bed and walked to the opposite side of Xiaoli. Suddenly he asked, "did Uncle Sanhuang let you or did master let you?"

Xiao Li raised her head in surprise and looked at Rong Jindong.

Rong Jindong's face was very heavy: "how are you going to tell them? What did you try to find out and how would you evaluate me? "

Xiaoli frowned, looked away, stood up from the bed and said, "I'm going."

But Rong Jindong took hold of him, pulled him back, put him back on the bed, let him sit, stared at his eyes and said, "you haven't answered me yet."

If Xiao Li wants to break away from the control of Rong Jindong, it's easy to say, but he didn't resist, just looked at Xiao Jin's brother and thought he was very strange.

"I'm going to tell them that you're not doing well and you're another person."

Rong Jindong narrowed his eyes, clasped Xiao Li's shoulder with his fingers, and made a faint effort.Xiaoli sipped her lips and lowered her head. "Maybe I shouldn't go into the palace. You don't need other people's care."

Rong Jindong breathed and let go of Xiaoli's shoulder. Slowly, he sat back beside Xiaoli and reached for the shoulder of Xiaoli.

Xiaoli didn't break away, just waited for him to speak quietly.

After a while, Rong Jindong said, "thank you for your concern. I have a good life. It's really good."

Xiaoli hears that he is not going to tell the truth. He looks up and looks around the environment of the dormitory. Finally, he gets up and says, "I'm going."

Rong Jindong holds him again: "wait for uncle seven to pick you up, you are alone, how to go."

Xiaoli didn't make a sound, just stood there.

Rong Jindong took his hand and took him to his study as if nothing had happened.

There are many small things in Rong Jindong's study. Xiao Li looks at those expensive things at a glance and doesn't take any of them.

Rong Jindong sits at his desk and finishes his homework. Xiao Li sits quietly on a soft bench.

After a while, Rong Xun came back. Xiao Li got up and followed Rong Xun. After he left, Rong Jindong came back to his study again. He looked at everything around the bench and breathed heavily.

Xiaoli had been sitting on this bench for nearly half an hour. He didn't drink a mouthful of water, eat a piece of cake or move a book. He entered the study as if he hadn't entered. When he left, he had no nostalgia.

Rong Jindong knew that a small friendship in his childhood should have ended after today.

People are like this. On the road of growth, you will encounter many choices. If you choose one path, you must abandon the other.

No one can do it. Trust is the last thing an emperor needs.

This is the first lesson that Rong Jindong learned three years ago when he was educated by the emperor.

It's also the idea that concubine Qin, uncle five and uncle seven have been instilling in him.

Now, he has learned not to trust anyone, even those who have been doing their best to help him.

To be a good emperor, you must endure loneliness. You can't rely on anyone. You need to listen, believe and judge right and wrong completely objectively. You can't make your own decisions because of friendship and friendship.

The emperor is the emperor of all the people in the world. What the emperor shoulders is not his own, but the common people in the world.

To be a good emperor, the first price to pay is self.

You are not you, you are the emperor, the emperor is not a person, you cannot have the feelings of ordinary people, because the feelings of ordinary people will only make you lose your sense and become fatuous and blind.

Imperial education is cruel and dehumanizing.

This road was not chosen by Rong Jindong himself. Someone chose it for him. He stepped on it, and there was no turning back.
