miscalculation

Ji Lan originally entered the palace this time to see Xiao Liang, but it was not easy to go directly to him. After thinking for a long time, he finally came to Fengmian Pavilion.Now that Xiao Liang called him in, he naturally couldn't leave.

He stepped into the door and saw Xiao Liang leaning on the chair, preoccupied.He hastily bowed and said, "My minister interrupted His Highness to rest."

Although he occasionally boldly called him Feng Mian outside the palace, now in the palace, that phrase Feng Mian would not be said no matter what, naturally only the courtesy of the monarch and his ministers.

Xiao Liang looked up at him, and said, "Jing Bo is free, please sit down and chat with me for a while."

Ji Lan answered "Yes" and sat aside, knowing that Xiao Liang might not be in a good mood, but he didn't know what he wanted to talk about.

Xiao Liang didn't look at him either, and asked himself: "I want to ask you, if you passed by Taiye Pond that day and knew that I fell into the water, would you still save me?"

When Ji Lan heard this, she was startled and puzzled. The meaning of this sentence was obvious. Xiao Liang obviously believed that he was Xiao Jue's cousin, so he naturally favored him.From the point of view of Xiao Jue, it would be better if Xiao Liang died than now.

Ji Lan quickly stood up and said, "I don't understand what Your Highness means."

"No, you understand." Xiao Liang remained expressionless.

Ji Lan knew that he couldn't escape, so he said: "No matter who it is, I will save it. I have been taught since I was a child to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country, and put benevolence and righteousness first. How can I see others fall into the water without saving them?"

"You are the grand master's grandson and concubine Ji Shu's nephew. You don't have to jump into the water because of reason. As long as you let those guards rescue you, whether the king lives or dies has nothing to do with you."

Ji Lan couldn't help beating his heart, not knowing the meaning of Xiao Liang's words, and said: "Your Highness's words sound like I have done something wrong."

Speaking of this, Xiao Liang simply stopped calling himself the king, and just said sullenly: "Yes, you did something wrong. If I can't get sick from now on, and I can't bear the departure of my concubine and third brother, It may be a relief to follow them too."

After hearing this, Ji Lan quickly looked at him, only to see that he was also looking at him, as if determined, but couldn't bear it, and quickly persuaded: "Your Highness is only 15 years old, how can you say such unlucky words. If His Majesty hears this, he will be sad."

"Are you sad? I just don't know how long this sadness will last? Or whether there will be any sadness at all."

"Your Highness, what's the matter with you? Could it be that King Zhao came and said something just now?" Ji Lan couldn't help but think that he was afraid of being seen when he saw King Zhao leaving.He knew about Kou Chaoming's matter, and Zhao Wang would definitely be displeased, but he didn't know what he said that made Xiao Liang think these things.

"You saved me once. If you told fifth brother what you said just now, and he passed it on to the emperor, I will not be able to bear the blame. If you like, you can take my life again. If so, I don't count I owe you."

After hearing this, Ji Lan couldn't sit still any longer, and immediately knelt down in front of Xiao Liang and said, "Please take care of yourself, Your Highness, and don't think about it again. Since I saved you, how can I do more harm? Can't wait?" Loyalty and injustice, forgive me, I really can't do it."

"After the death of my mother and concubine, I hardly hear the truth every day. I am really curious. How come the closer the blood relatives, the more false the words are. Fortunately, I have no relatives with you, so I might as well believe it. "

"Your Highness's words are wrong. The heaven and earth kings and masters, you call Ji Lan a master, and a humble minister is not talented. Even if you don't dare to be a master, you can still be regarded as half of your master. How can you be considered unrelated?"

"Oh? So, what you just said is also a lie?" Xiao Liang couldn't help but want to tease him.

Ji Lan wanted to comfort Xiao Liang, but unexpectedly, he was reversed and was speechless.

Xiao Liang saw him kneeling there for a long time, speechless for a while, so he stretched out his hand to pull him up, and sat on the side.He smiled wryly, and said: "Actually, I'm really curious. What will happen to a prince like me who has no mother to fight, no brothers to love, and only his father loves. If my father no longer loves me , Who will I die in?"

Ji Lan hurriedly stood up again, and said, "I hope Your Highness will speak carefully, such disrespectful words must never be said again."

"Hmph, if possible, I really hope to die by your hands. Don't panic, there are only two of us here. Since you said you won't spread the word, then why don't I talk about it?"

"This... Weichen..." Ji Lan was so blocked by him that he couldn't answer. He really didn't expect to see the well-behaved Xiao Liang on weekdays, and really had a fit. .

Xiao Liang saw that he was choked to death by himself, he couldn't help laughing, and then he seemed a little disappointed, and said after a long time: "The second emperor brother came to me just now. I thought I could forgive him for using me, but I didn't expect that I didn't think so." So magnanimous, and he really won't believe that what happened to Kou Chaoming was an accident so easily. When he left, he slapped Yun Zhao fiercely. Although I don't know martial arts, I can still see the killing intent. I came out. I think that if one day I get in the way of my second brother, he will kill me as well. I’m afraid not only the second brother, but also the fifth brother. Looking at it this way, a close relative of flesh and blood is nothing more than that That's all. There are no good things for me in the world, so why should I be too obsessed?"

"Your Highness, you still have Your Majesty. After all, Yun Zhao is just a bodyguard, how can he be with you? I heard that you have been close to King Zhao since childhood, even closer than King Wei. How can you be so close to Kou Chaoming?" ?Maybe it’s just that you think too much, it’s better not to bother others.”

"Jing Bo is right, this king is indeed a mediocre person."

"Wei Chen didn't mean that." Ji Lan was choked again by him and couldn't speak. If it wasn't for the midwinter, his head might already be sweating.

"Jingbo, go back, don't stay in Fengmian Pavilion for too long. I heard that I asked you to learn martial arts, which made Concubine Shu unhappy. If you stay in Fengmian Pavilion for a short time now, I'm afraid it's not appropriate."

Ji Lan has just entered the palace, and has not yet visited Chuxiu Palace to meet Concubine Ji Shu, so if she wants to come and wait a while, she will be reprimanded.He knew that although Xiao Liang was young, but his heart was sharp, he saluted and said goodbye: "I will retire, please take care of your Highness."

Xiao Liang nodded and said no more.He watched Ji Lan leave, so he called Eunuch Lin in, and said, "This money was awarded to Eunuch Xu's family by this king. You should try to explain it."

"Reporting to Your Highness, Eunuch Xu had already expected that His Highness would give you such a reward, and asked the old slave to thank you. He also said that there is no one in his hometown in Hefei, so there is no need to reward him."

"The king knows, you can go down. Eunuch Xu needs to work hard on his funeral."

In the eunuch's office, Eunuch Lin thought he would be made things difficult, but he was a little surprised to see that everyone was very polite.When the eunuchs in the palace die, they are dragged to mass graves, and only those serving masters with high status are given the favor of being buried in the coffin.Although Eunuch Xu had served Concubine Hui, but now Xiao Liang is quite sad in the palace, why don't these people take the opportunity to make things difficult.After thinking about it for a while, he felt that His Highness must have killed the people in the palace of the Three Emperors with a staff, so that the palace people dared not act rudely again.

Even so, he couldn't be too relieved, so he stuffed three taels of silver into the hands of the two young eunuchs who carried the corpse, but they stuffed it back.They only said: "Eunuch Zhang has already given us money, so there is no need to give it again."

Eunuch Lin was very surprised to hear that, how could Eunuch Zhang kindly help arrange these things.He is the head of the big house, with him in charge, it is natural and appropriate, so I feel relieved.Eunuch Xu once told Xiao Liang that Eunuch Zhang was from his hometown, but Eunuch Lin knew that Eunuch Zhang was from Suzhou, far away from Hefei, so there was no connection.After thinking about it, he felt a little strange, but considering that Xiao Liang was in a bad mood recently, it was inconvenient to mention such a trivial matter, and he had nothing to say at the moment.
