After the emperor issued this edict, he quickly sent someone to bring the second son Xiao Wenyu into the palace.

Xiao Wenyu did not object, and entered the palace with the things his parents gave him.

This time when he entered the palace, Lu Jiao gave Xiao Wenyu in advance what she wanted to distribute to the brothers and sisters. In addition to a courtyard in the middle of the capital, there were also three shops in the prosperous area of ​​the capital. In addition, there were two Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing. Eight hundred acres, and a silver note of 30,000 taels was also given to Sibao.

She prepares a copy for each of her children, and distributes them to them when they get married. Now that the four treasures are in the palace, his marriage will not be decided by them in the future, but by His Majesty the Emperor, so they put the things in advance. Gave the four treasures.

These things are secondary. The most precious thing Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao gave to the Four Treasures were the five guards who had been carefully cultivated by them for ten years.

These guards were children suitable for practicing martial arts that Lu Jiao had ordered Housekeeper Xiao to make great efforts to select children who were suitable for practicing martial arts from the tooth shop as soon as Lu Jiao knew the identity of the Four Treasures. At that time, she selected ten children in total. Give Sibao five, the remaining five, her children will share, plus the little friends who practiced martial arts with them, there will be two people to protect them.

She is also relieved as a mother.

This time the Four Treasures entered the palace, Lu Jiao selected five guards and asked them to secretly protect the Four Treasures.

Before entering the palace, Lu Jiao took Sibao's hand and carefully exhorted: "Sibao, remember, don't trust anyone in the palace, even if that person has saved you, don't trust easily, don't forget your mother Among your thirty-six tricks, you followed your father and mother in the past, and you have never experienced the dangers of human hearts, so don't trust others easily."

"You can tell His Majesty what your parents gave you, but don't tell the five guards, that's your trump card, even if it's His Majesty the Emperor."

Si Bao listened to Lu Jiao's exhortation, his eyes became moist, he stretched out his hand and hugged Lu Jiao tightly: "Mother, thank you, thank you for what you did for me."

She has done more than any mother in the world, and she has to be loving.

Sibao can be sure that her mother is a kind person, so she is willing to help those who are in trouble, love his son, and teach him carefully.

He must make his mother a role model for women in the world.

Sibao's eyes had never been deeper than before.

Xie Yunjin patted Sibao on the back: "Okay, don't make Your Majesty wait too long, we will meet again later, don't call us father and mother anymore, you only have one father and that is His Majesty in the palace, from now on you will be the son of Da Zhou." Prince."

Xie Yunjin felt very uncomfortable. The child she raised had always been called her parents' child. When she met again, she could only call him the Second Prince, and could no longer call him the Four Treasures.

After listening to Xie Yunjin's words, Sibao finally couldn't help but shed tears.

He turned to look at Xie Yunjin, then at Lu Jiao, and said in a choked voice, "Father, mother, I hope you allow your son the right to call you in private."

Lu Jiao knew that it was difficult for him to accept such a change for a while, but she would gradually get better in the future.

"Okay, we still call it that in private."

Sibao finally felt better, let go of Lu Jiao, Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao sent him out, followed by Dabao and the twins, and sent him out all the way.

Everyone was in a bad mood, so no one spoke.

The four eunuchs and four guards sent by His Majesty to bring Sibao into the palace were dumbfounded when they saw Sibao.

Oh my god, this is the second prince. He is so handsome. I thought the eldest prince was handsome, but now when he compares with the second prince, he is directly compared to him.

The eunuch watched for a long time and couldn't regain his senses, until Sibao came over and said lightly: "Let's enter the palace."

"Yes, Second Prince, please, Second Prince."

Four eunuchs and four palace guards respectfully invited Sibao to board the carriage.

Standing in front of the carriage, Sibao looked back at the members of the Xie family for the last time. This parting, when they meet again in the future, is the difference between the monarch and his subjects.

"Father, mother, elder brother, fifth younger brother, Linglong, I have entered the palace."

Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao waved with the children, Sibao nodded with a smile, looked at Zhou Youqin who grew up with him from the corner of the eye, and said goodbye to Zhou Youqin with a smile.

"Youqin, take care."

Four Treasures entered the palace this time, except for the five hidden guards, they were not allowed to bring anyone from outside the palace into the palace. The only men who could walk freely in the palace were the eunuchs except for the guards.

The guards who can walk freely in the palace have all been strictly checked. Everyone is innocent and has nothing to do with the ministers of the court. However, anyone who is involved cannot enter the palace as a guard.

In addition, eunuchs can enter the palace. Zhou Youqin, as a servant of the Xie family, cannot enter the palace as a guard. If you are old, you can stay outside to get married and have children, and you don't need to follow him into the palace.

It's dangerous in the palace, it's dangerous for him to enter the palace, it's better to stay outside.

Zhou Youqin watched the leaving carriage silently, turned around and entered Xie's mansion for a long time.

When Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao entered the mansion, Zhou Shaogong was beating Zhou Youqin with a stick.

Manfu ran after him, beating and cursing: "You bastard, I told you to talk nonsense, if you say another word, see if I don't beat you to death."

Zhou Youqin said while running: "Father, it's useless for you to stop me, I will do what I say."

Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao saw that the father and son were flying like dogs, and quickly stopped them: "Zhou Shaogong, what are you doing beating the child? He is so old, he needs face."

Zhou Shaogong knelt down with a plop and shouted: "My lord, this rebellious son, he wants to enter the palace to become a eunuch."

As soon as Zhou Shaogong said, Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao knew that Zhou Youqin did this to enter the palace to accompany Sibao.

The husband and wife were very moved by Zhou Youqin's heart to protect the lord, but they still persuaded him: "You Qin, you have this kind of heart, and we thank you on behalf of the four treasures, but you are the son of the Zhou family, how can you enter the palace purely?" If you are a eunuch, forget it.”

Zhou Youqin looked up at Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao and said, "I know it's unfilial for me to do this, but I have recognized Sibao as the master since I was a child. I grew up with him and learned a lot. I'm just a stupid, stupid boy."

"He never regarded me as a servant, but as a brother. Now it is very dangerous for him to enter the palace, but I can't follow him to protect him. I feel that I have wasted his kindness for so many years. If one day in the future He is in danger, what happened, I will definitely be sad, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life, and feel that I am an ungrateful person, so I want to enter the palace to accompany him."

"Even if I can't be a real man, even if I die in the future, I have no regrets in my heart."
