morning thoughts

Ji Yu smiled, looked up at Fu Hai, Fu Hai instructed him to retreat from the study, Ji Yu took his hand and sat down on the couch beside him, and asked with a smile: "I just listened to you as soon as I opened my mouth." It looks a little familiar, so I guessed it right, but I don’t know what is the important thing for the third prince to come down?”

Ling Chao never expected to be recognized on the spot, feeling a sense of embarrassment of being caught, coughed lightly and said: "Today I heard that the crown prince entered the palace."

Seeing his appearance, Ji Yu found it interesting, leaned over and leaned aside, just waiting for Ling Chao to continue talking.

Ling Chao calmed down and didn't bend his mind, he squeezed his hands and said: "I heard that Ji Shizi donated all the money in the mansion for Chuzhou, I thought it would be inconvenient for the son to need money for urgent matters alone in Huajing, so I want to give this to the prince..."

As Ling Chao spoke, he took out a wooden box from under his generous robe.

"I don't mean anything else. It is a righteous act for the son to care about the world. It's just that the son came all the way from Lichuan without something close to him. There are not many here, just to express his heart."

Ji Yu never thought that in Huajing, the first person who cared about him would be His Highness the Third Highness. Even his cousin and aunt never sent anyone to ask him a word, but this little Highness could sneak out of the palace to give him money , I felt relieved at the moment.

He set his sights on the wooden box, and knew that there was not much money in it without looking carefully, but he figured it was the most money Ling Chao could take out.

Ji Yu narrowed his eyes and thanked him: "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness, and I will not hide it from your Highness. Although Ji Yu donated most of the money in the mansion, there is still some use for him. His Highness Ji Yu has accepted the wishes of the Third Highness. These are absolutely unacceptable." Received."

Ji Yu closed the wooden box and pushed it back in front of Ling Chao. Ling Chao was stunned for a moment, and his eyes stopped on the wooden box, thinking that the number was too small, and then he felt a little embarrassed. Counting gold is not a problem.

Thinking of this, a thin layer of sweat dripped from the tip of Ling Chao's nose, and he didn't notice the grievance in his tone: "I just want to do my best for the son..."

Ji Yu looked at Ling Chao's pure heart and didn't want to shake his mind, so he raised his hand and rubbed his head, and said with a bit of pampering like comforting a child: "How could Ji Yu be so kind to the Third Highness?" I don't know, if I ask His Highness for help in the future, I will definitely not hold back."

Ji Yu is a few years older than Ling Chao, and he will inevitably be half-coaxed and half-persuaded when he speaks. Ling Chao feels like he is being treated like a child after being teased like this. It's good to be so naturally, and I can be acquainted with the son of the world."

"Today, I heard that the father and the crown prince discussed the matter of asking the eldest son to study in the south courtyard. Maybe there will be news in a few days."

Hearing this, Ji Yu's hand that was pouring tea paused slightly, mercury splashed out and landed on the back of his hand, but he didn't notice it.

Seeing this, Ling Chao hurriedly took the teapot down: "My son, be careful."

Ji Yu Lian Shen responded: "Thank you for your reminder, Your Highness."

Ji Yu's family background is there, even if he is studying, he can only post it to the Taixue. If a child of any aristocratic family can enter the palace to serve as a student, it is a great gift from heaven.

But as far as Ji Yu was concerned, he wished to be far away from these royal family and nobles, and hearing this news now really made him lose interest.

In front of Ling Chao, he didn't want to show anything, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and with a smile on his face, he said: "The emperor's gift really flatters me."

"It may not be a good thing at all." Ling Chao frowned and sighed, "The palace is no more comfortable than the Shizi's mansion."

Ji Yu smiled and didn't speak. He had also heard about His Highness the Third Highness in the past two days. He thought that he was trying to get close to him, but now he heard Ling Chao talking childishly. On the contrary, I feel that maybe I am too defensive.

There was no one else in the study, Ji Yu didn't respond, and the atmosphere was not as harmonious as it was just now.

Ling Chao dryly sipped his tea, his gaze fell on the desk inadvertently, and he asked softly, "Is this portrait of Princess Annan?"

"Well, do you want to come over and take a look?"

Ji Yu got up and walked to the desk, lowered his head and looked at the two people in the portrait, his eyes were soft and affectionate.

Ji Yu is taller than Ling Chao, but his body is very thin, and his gentle and funny words are not eye-catching. He is polite but alienated, making people hard to find fault but not easy to get close to.

But it was the first time Ling Chao had seen such an expression, and he became greedy for a moment.

His face as white as jade, and his eyes like water mist made people feel affectionate for no reason, as if he had already used the deepest affection just by looking at him.

Staring at Ji Yu for a long time, until Ji Yu turned around and saw him stunned, he called several times: "Your Highness? Third Highness?"

Ling Chao came back to his senses, touched his earlobe and replied casually: "I have heard that Princess Annan is a stunning beauty, and my son has the good looks of the princess, and he is also good-looking."

After boasting, Ling Chao felt even more embarrassed, and blushed from his earlobes to his neck.

Ji Yu: "..."

Naturally, Ji Yu had heard many compliments about his appearance, but it was the first time he had seen him being ashamed when he praised others, so he couldn't help laughing.

Ling Chao was so embarrassed that he curled his fingers and pinched the sides of his legs. He didn't know how to explain that he didn't intend to offend, but Ji Yu raised his hand and landed on top of his head. Maybe he remembered his resistance just now, this time he just patted twice .

Ling Chao's breath was stagnant, and he was startled like a cat being pinched by the back of his neck. He pushed Ji Yu's hand away in a panic, and pretended to be calm: "It's getting late, I'm going back to the palace first."

Before Ji Yu could speak, Ling Chao came out of the study like a gust of wind. Fu Hai saw the appearance of His Highness the Third Highness at the door and thought that his eldest son had done something scary.

------

"Who are you talking about?" Ling Jun clicked his tongue, walked up and down the school with raised eyebrows, and Ling Yu felt dizzy: "You can sit down quickly, walking around looking upset."

Ling Jun shook his head with anger on his face: "Why should his mere courtiers study with us?"

Ling Yu raised his eyebrows and asked, "But why did I hear Concubine Shu and Emperor Father say that you were arguing two days ago that you were going out of the palace to die at your son's house to meet your cheap cousin?"

"Second brother!" Ling Jun blushed immediately when he was punctured, and after holding back for a while, he said quietly: "I just want to go out of the palace for a walk."

Ling Jun has always looked like this, and he is used to being domineering by Ling Yu's side on weekdays. In this palace, he is willing to show weakness to the prince and Ling Yu. A half-grown child will not speak well, let alone a child who is not good. People who don't want to see him have the nerve to admit that they want to see Ji Yu.

Ling Yu didn't care about his attitude, raised his finger and tapped on the table lightly, and asked with a half-smile: "I heard that your cheap cousin is very handsome?"

Hearing this, Ling Jun even showed a bit of pride on his face: "Second brother doesn't know, my cousin was also a person who was admired by a noble lady in Lichuan. Even if he has never seen the real person, he should have heard of Guanyu. Wushuang, naturally it is excellent."

In his eyes, Ling Jun is like a puppy who loves to occupy territory, but anyone who gets in touch with him is excellent.

Ling Yu shrugged his shoulders disapprovingly, and sneered, "I have no experience. When you grow up, the second brother will take you to see the world, and you will be able to tell the difference between good and bad."

Ling Jun was taken aback by what he said, and then he blushed when he realized what he wanted to see. Although he is not yet old, boys will probably be enlightened earlier. He wants to distinguish something, but he can't explain it. .

Ling Yu has always been a man with no taboos, but Ling Jun is really younger, so he no longer teases him when he sees him like this.

Ling Yu supported his head leisurely, and when he glanced at Ling Chao, he suddenly felt that his interest was half lost.

At Mao, Ji Yu appeared in the South Courtyard, and happened to meet Shao Fu.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Ling Chao smiling and beckoning to him. Ji Yu and Shao Fu nodded and walked towards Ling Chao, sitting on the empty seat beside him.

The morning sun suddenly rose, and the ground was cast with different shades of light and shadow. Ji Yu sat in front of the window, half of his body was not in the shadow, but his complexion became fairer.

Ling Chao personally lit a few lamps and put them in front of Ji Yu. As soon as the light was shining, Ji Yu raised his hand to cover it, and when he moved away, he smiled at Ling Chao.

But who knows that Ji Yu's smile seems to have poked Ling Yu's heart, and then recalling Ling Jun's words just now, he feels that Guan Yu Wushuang is not enough to describe the person in front of him.

At this time, Ling Yu couldn't do anything, so he finally got out of class, walked up to Ji Yu and said, "Senior Ji."

His gaze made Ji Yu feel dazzling, and when he looked up again, he saw that the other party was gentle and polite, which seemed to be his own illusion. Ji Yu got up and smiled faintly, and saluted Ling Yu and Ling Jun.

Seeing Ji Yu talking to him, Ling Jun heaved a sigh of relief, but his expression remained indifferent, and he nodded with his neck stuck.

Ling Yu warmly put his hands on Ji Yu's shoulders, and said with regret: "The last two times you entered the palace by accident and failed to see you. A few days ago, I heard about your son's righteous deeds. If you need it in the future Please don't hold back, my son."

Ji Yu raised his brows slightly. This Ling Yu's eyes were always higher than the top, and it made people uncomfortable to be so close. He pursed his lips, and quietly avoided Ling Yu's touch, and said according to the ceremony: "Thank you!" Pass Your Highness."

Just now, Ji Yu's alienation was noticed by Ling Yu, who just wanted to raise his hand and endured it.

Ji Yu was so alienated, he couldn't tell for a moment whether it was because of his temperament, or whether he was deliberately avoiding himself.

Thinking of this layer, I suddenly felt in a bad mood, but it didn't show on the surface.

"Sir."

When Ji Yu turned his head to look at Ling Chao, Ling Yu and Ling Jun also looked over.

"I didn't bring the stickers that the son wanted with me. If the son is free for a while, why not go to my palace to get them..."

Before Ling Chao finished speaking, Ling Jun turned his back on him: "Hey, what good post do you have?"

After finishing speaking, he looked up at Ji Yu, and said proudly: "I have many good posts that my father rewarded, if you really like it..."

Ji Yu: "Then I will bother His Highness the Third Highness."

Ling Jun hadn't finished speaking when he heard Ji Yu answering Ling Chao. He was immediately ashamed and annoyed, pointing at Ji Yu and cursing, "I don't know what to do!"

His angry face was blunt, he was humiliated by Ji Yu in public and he couldn't vent his anger on him, so he raised his foot and kicked the eunuch who was serving at the side, and cursed as he walked out: "You are an eyesore, go and get the punishment yourself."
