Wait until Xiao Yao leaves.

The entire hall suddenly became quiet.

Su Yun's palms were sweaty, "I'm not dreaming, Chen'er is back."

Xiao Lusheng said: "It's not a dream."

"My brother is back. Father, the matter of reviewing the memorials..."

"You approve it first. It depends on what Chen'er thinks about this matter. Besides, it still needs to be evaluated. The livelihood of a country is no joke."

Xiao Yao opened her mouth and said, "Yes, I will listen to you, father." Then she looked at her mother, who was looking at her lovingly.

This made her feel elated, but she thought, forget it, for the sake of filial piety, she would just bear it for now.

"Your brother is at the Imperial Observatory right now. There will be a family dinner tonight. You should go to the Imperial Study to review the memorials first, and don't delay the dinner." Xiao Lusheng cleared his throat, "Otherwise, you will fall behind the third brother, who is used to pleasing others."

Being good at pleasing others means being able to please Brother Chen?

Xiao Yao: “…”

Why is she so unlucky? "Yes, I'll take my leave." Xiao Yao turned around and almost ran away losing her manners.

Su Yun said: "If Chen'er is willing, will Yao'er feel disappointed? After all, you have been training her as the crown prince for these years."

"Moreover, if things go wrong, it may cause irreversible harm to the siblings, or even turn them into enemies."

Xiao Lusheng laughed and said, "Although Yao'er looks like me, haven't you noticed that her personality is actually similar to yours?"

"Have it?"

"Of course, what she wants is pretty much the same as what you want, but I have helped foster some of her ambitions over the years."

Su Yun was somewhat speechless.

"What she likes most is not going out of the palace with you. One year she even accompanied you on a private visit. That was the happiest year for her. So no matter what choice Chen'er makes, she won't be too sad."

After a pause, Xiao Lusheng continued, "Besides, I will not be partial to anyone. I will make up for what I owe to Chen'er, but I will give Chen'er three years to prepare for the position of crown prince. Between him and Yao'er, whoever is most suitable for this position, I will pass it on to him, and no one can complain."

Although Chen'er has been practicing among the people for many years.

But Master Ding and Master Changkong are powerful people of a higher level than people like Master Ding.

Chen'er's knowledge is not low.

As for the way of the emperor, let Master Ding teach for three years. If Chen'er is still not as good as Yao'er in three years, considering Chen'er's experience in cultivation, he should, perhaps, have no complaints.

Su Yun thought about what Xiao Lusheng said, "Is it possible that Chen'er simply disdains this position?"

"After all, he grew up with Master Changkong and Master Ding. Look at Brother Rong. How can he be interested in power, money and status?"

Xiao Lusheng tapped her forehead and said, "Yun'er is as smart as ever. I have never thought of this."

Su Yun reached out and pulled his short, tangled beard, "The same goes for Brother Xiao." As nice as ever.

He leaned over and was about to speak halfway through when Jian Shun, Han Xiang and others quietly left.

Xiao Lusheng picked him up and carried him to the kang. "Are you relieved now?"

Su Yun nodded, "Well, Chen'er is really handsome, even more handsome than you were when you were young."

"He looks like Yun'er, how can he not be handsome?" That gentle temperament is too - too similar to Rong Xun.

Thinking about it, Xiao Lusheng still felt that Xiao Yao looked most like him, handled government affairs like him, and trained his own secret guards with drastic measures.

Su Yun was delighted to hear this and kissed him on the cheek. Xiao Lusheng said, "That's a bit conservative. Kiss here." He pointed to his lips.

Su Yun laughed softly, an old couple...

Then she raised her head, kissed him, and then snuggled into Xiao Lusheng's arms, "I want to cook for you myself. Chen'er has never eaten the food I cooked."

Xiao Lusheng: “…” He had never eaten many meals cooked by Yun’er herself.

Xiao Yao and Xiao Zhenzhen haven't eaten many meals.

As soon as Chen Er came back, he felt like he was about to fall out of favor, "I'll go with you."

Su Yun rolled her eyes at him.

How could an emperor spend a day not dealing with government affairs, but just fooling around with his wife and daughter?

Xiao Lusheng was the first one. He became the emperor while still sitting on the dragon throne, and all government affairs were handed over to Yao'er.

Where is Yaoer?

Sometimes he would be asked to help with government affairs, and sometimes Brother Rong would be asked to help. Emperor Xiao Lusheng had it too easy.

Imperial Observatory, one hour ago.

Master Ding returned to the Imperial Observatory, looking at the familiar place, and couldn't help sighing several times.

As soon as he looked up, he saw Jingwen.

"Master Ding, you're finally back." Jingwen is now a middle-aged man with a beard. When he saw Master Ding, his eyes couldn't help but well up in tears.

Master Ding was surprised at first, but then he thought, as long as Rong Xun was not dead, even if all his Taoist magic disappeared, he could still perform basic divination.

He must have calculated that they would come back today, so he asked Jingwen to wait in the Imperial Observatory, right?

"I haven't seen you for many years. Jingwen has matured." Master Ding stood with his hands behind his back, his figure hunched.

Jingwen said, "Master Ding is still as strong as he was back then." But he looked much older than before, with wrinkles that could kill a mosquito, obvious blue veins on his aging skin, and age spots.

However, he is in good spirits.

Master Ding frowned, "Are you saying I'm old?"

Jing Wen cupped his hands, "I dare not."

Mr. Ding smiled and said, "I'm old." Probably, well, I don't have many years left to live.

"Not old, not old." Jingwen said from behind, and then watched Master Ding go to Yinyue Pavilion. He smiled and looked at the horizon. The spring sun was shining brightly. The master would definitely be happy to see Master Ding.

In the Hidden Moon Pavilion.

When Rong Xun heard the footsteps, he poured a cup of freshly brewed tea for Master Ding.

The moment he saw Master Ding step over the threshold, he looked at him and found himself much older.

"Old man, you're back." Rong Xun asked with a faint smile, pointing to the stool opposite.

Master Ding walked briskly and sat opposite Rong Xun. "I thought you had forgotten about the old man."

"Why not? I miss you sometimes."

"Hey, I have completed my training." Mission accomplished, "I brought Yunyou back, at least he is Yunyou." As for whether he is Prince Xiao or Crown Prince Xiao, that is not something he can decide.

Rong Xun nodded slightly, "Thank you for your hard work."

"Hey, why are you saying all this?" Old Man Ding sighed, "You are really amazing. Before Yunyou was born, you stared at this Taoist name and said that this was the name of your future disciple. At that time, I was wondering why Cheng Zhong was not named this..."

Rong Xun frowned slightly, "So his name is Yunyou?"

Master Ding nodded, "Yes, I gave him a few Taoist names and he chose them himself."

Rong Xun sighed, "Is it God's will?"

"Yeah." Master Ding nodded, picked up the teacup and took a sip. When it was no longer hot, he drank it in one gulp. He pushed the teacup over and Rong Xun refilled it for him.

He took the cup and drank it. "It's been a long time since I drank the tea from the Imperial Observatory."
