Chapter 95 System Task: Father’s Kindness and Son’s Filial Piety - Seizing Power and Regent

After expressing his feelings, Zhao Yi handed the diary in his hand to Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng took the diary and stroked it gently with his hand.

Because this is one of the few things Lin Yunying left in the world.

Ying Zheng walked to a chair nearby and sat down, then opened the diary and began to read.

When he first read the previous content, a smile could still appear on Ying Zheng's face.

Because it records the interesting things that happened during the time when Lin Yunying lived with him.

But slowly the smile on Ying Zheng's face disappeared, replaced by sadness and regret.

Because Ying Zheng saw the contents of Lin Yunying's diary when she discovered his identity.

It turned out that she discovered that her identity was fake that day, but she didn't say anything.

Ying Zheng continued to read on.

He saw Lin Yunying's scolding when he suddenly disappeared, saw Lin Yunying's longing for him when she was pregnant, and saw Lin Yunying's expectations for Zhao Yi's future.

As he watched, Ying Zheng's eyes turned red, and finally tears flowed out.

When Zhao Yi saw Ying Zheng crying, he felt that even Ying Zheng, who was the greatest emperor of all time, could be sad and cry.

From the way he cried while reading the diary, we can tell that he loves his mother deeply and it is not something he does just for fun.

Now Zhao Yi believes that Ying Zheng did not intend to abandon his wife and children. It can only be said that it was fate that led to the tragedy.

Half an hour later, Ying Zheng finished reading the diary written by Lin Yunying.

He put the diary on the table and wiped the remaining tears from the corners of his eyes with his hands.

Originally, Ying Zheng thought he was a very strong person and would not cry.

But I didn't expect that after reading Lin Yunying's diary, tears would flow out on their own.

Just like the sentence in the novel written by Zhao Yi - there are 80,000 words in the world, but only love is the most hurtful.

Maybe this is love.

Ying Zheng took a deep breath to calm himself, then turned to look at Zhao Yi.

"I am also very sorry about what happened to your mother. You can ask me to compensate you or your mother in any way you want. I can even posthumously confer the title of queen on her." Ying Zheng said solemnly.

Now Ying Zheng really wants to compensate Zhao Yi.

If Zhao Yi wasn't born smart, his life would have been difficult.

The root cause of all these tragedies was that I concealed my identity in the first place.

Zhao Yi shook his head and said, "There's no need to posthumously confer a title on mother. With her personality, she wouldn't want these things. She'll probably just cause trouble for her."

"That's right." Ying Zheng agreed.

What Zhao Yi said really sounded like something Lin Yunying would do.

"So Zhao Yi, do you need your father to compensate you for something?" Ying Zheng asked again.

Ying Zheng said this from the bottom of his heart, not because of Zhao Yi's technology.

Because Zhao Yi is Lin Yunying's child, Ying Zheng wants to compensate him.

Originally, Zhao Yi planned to refuse Ying Zheng.

After all, once he asked Ying Zheng for some compensation, it would mean that he had to accept Ying Zheng's identity as a prince.

This means that he will be involved in various disputes between court forces.

It would be better to stay in Shahe Village and listen to Yu Ji singing while developing industry to improve your life.

Now Zhao Yi no longer has the idea of ​​rebellion.

After all, there was a reason why Ying Zheng, his biological father, left without saying goodbye.

So Zhao Yi had no reason to rebel.

It would be better to cooperate with our father to develop industry like we are doing now.

Just then the system voice rang again.

[Quest Change - "Persuading Father to Rebel" quest changed to "Father's Kindness and Son's Filial Piety: Seizing the Throne and Regent"]

[A loving father and a filial son - Seizing power as regent - Obtaining the right to be regent]

[Mission Reward - Blueprints of thermal power plant and generator] Zhao Yi's heart became excited when he saw this mission reward.

This was an award he simply couldn't refuse.

Although he had textbooks from the college library, they only covered theory.

But he is unable to build large factories such as power plants now.

Because that involves all kinds of stuff.

The selection of a factory site requires various types of surveying knowledge. The construction of a large factory requires architects to design special building types, as well as the design and materials of generators, etc.

It would be different if you had a system drawing. You wouldn’t need to figure out the design yourself.

Just manufacture it according to the drawings.

Once we have a power plant, it means we can enter the electrical age.

By then, we can study electric lights, refrigerators, air conditioners and other things according to the textbooks, so that Zhao Yi can enjoy modern life again.

So Zhao Yi asked tentatively: "Can I be the regent for a while?"

Ying Zheng wondered if he had heard it wrongly.

Zhao Yi wants to be regent for a while?
Good guy!
As expected, this kid Zhao Yi doesn't play by the rules.

However, Ying Zheng was not angry when he heard this request.

On the contrary, I am very happy.

Because Ying Zheng originally wanted Zhao Yi to be his heir, so even if Zhao Yi asked him for the position of crown prince, Ying Zheng would give it to him.

Now Zhao Yi asked for regent for a period of time, which was not a big deal at all.

Anyway, this is one of the projects that the prince needs to practice.

So Ying Zheng immediately agreed: "Okay."

Ying Zheng continued, "You can be the regent, but you need to go to Xianyang to recognize your ancestry. Then you will have the status of a prince and can legitimately be the regent."

"That's fine, but I can't leave for Xianyang until spring. After all, there are a lot of things to arrange in Shahe Village." Zhao Yi explained.

The reason why Zhao Yi said this was that there were indeed many things in Shahe Village that needed him to arrange.

If he goes to Xianyang now, the development of Shahe Village will stagnate.

Zhao Yi needs to make good follow-up plans and development for Shahe Village before going to Xianyang.

Moreover, Zhao Yi did not want to go to Xianyang right away. After all, life in Xianyang in winter was definitely not as comfortable as in Shahe Village.

"Of course. You can do whatever you want." Ying Zheng said.

You know, what he had been worried about before was that Zhao Yi would not recognize him as his father.

Now Zhao Yi is willing to go to Xianyang to trace his ancestral roots, which means he is willing to recognize his father!

As long as Zhao Yi is willing to recognize him as his father, everything else will be easy.

Hearing Zhao Yi's answer, Ying Zheng's sadness because of Lin Yunying was relieved a lot.

"Zhao Yi, can you let father see your mother's other relics?" Ying Zheng asked.

"of course can."

After all, Ying Zheng was his mother's lover and appeared many times in her diary.

Even after his mother returned to Shahe Village, she often missed every moment she had spent in love with him.

So Zhao Yi would not refuse Ying Zheng's request.

Then Zhao Yi took Ying Zheng to his mother's boudoir.

As soon as Ying Zheng entered, he saw several hairpins on the dressing table.

Those were the gifts he had given her.

Ying Zheng, who was deeply moved by the object, said slowly: "Zhao Yi, can you go out for a while and leave father alone?"

"Okay, I'll go out first."

Then Zhao Yi walked outside, and Yu Ji, who had been worried for a long time, came over...
