Reborn as a King in the Hand

Xia Hua almost fainted from anger, walked out of the bedroom, pulled Qiu Chan, and muttered softly: "The prince has already quarreled with the young master, why is the young master still unwilling to return to the Hou's mansion?"

Qiu Chan was pulled back a bit by her, and said with a smile: "My good sister, what's wrong with you? You're the one who pulls me and keeps me from messing around on weekdays, so why are you talking nonsense today? "

"I'm also in a hurry." Xia Hua quickly calmed down, and said worriedly, "Before the young master married into the palace, the madam specifically told me that if the prince treats the young master badly, let me persuade him to be with him no matter what. .”

Qiu Chan was slightly stunned: "My good sister, the more you talk, the more inappropriate... When the young master got off the carriage, didn't he and the prince get along very well?"

"Just now we had a quarrel, and the lord just left our little duke in the house!"

"Ouch." Qiu Chan exhaled, "And then?"

"What else do you want after that?" Xia Hua asked back, "Our young master has never been wronged like this since he was a child!"

"Good sister, there is no one who doesn't quarrel when you get married." Qiu Chan raised her heart and put it back in her stomach, "You are the son of the Hou family, I don't know how the poor and lowly couples outside can quarrel, but I have seen... ...Furthermore, our young master didn't quarrel, which means that he doesn't feel wronged at all!"

Xia Hua heard Qiu Chan's long speech for the first time, and couldn't help hesitating: "Young Master, don't you really feel wronged?"

"We have been with the young master for so many years, so we know him well?" Qiu Chan nodded, "When did he bear it? Even in the Hou's mansion, in front of the prince and his wife, what dissatisfaction does he have? It’s also straightforward.”

"Good sister, don't worry about it." She looked at the rising full moon, and turned her head with a smile, "Tomorrow will be the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and I'm afraid the young master won't be able to go out to make lanterns this year, so let's think of a way. Make him happy."

"The days go by so fast, it's already fifteen." Xia Hua also went to look at the moon in the sky, "If I'm in the Hou Mansion this year, Madam will definitely cook Lantern Festival for the little Hou Ye."

Mu Rugui who left the palace was also looking at the moon in the sky.

The border troubles have been resolved, and the night in Shangjing is lively again.

Every house is decorated with lanterns and festoons, and the streets are full of peddlers and playful children.

Mu Rugui didn't wear court clothes, and didn't have any attendants by his side. He was walking alone in the bustling market when he bumped into a child.

He paused slightly, thinking of the child who was frightened and crying when he saw the black armored cavalry, he felt a faint headache.

But the child who bumped into him rubbed his head, tiptoed to take a look, then took a decent step back, saluted, and bounced away again.

Mu Rugui stared blankly at the boy's back, wondering why he didn't cry.

"My lord, let's buy a bowl of Yuanxiao." Xu Mu Rugui stood by the street for too long, and the aunt who cooked the Yuanxiao yelled, "The little lady at home must like it."

Mu Rugui was indeed attracted, and went over to buy two bowls.

Seeing his luxurious clothes, the aunt couldn't help but say a few more words: "Why didn't the young master bring the lady out to watch the lantern festival?"

"Lantern Festival?"

"It's the fifteenth!" The aunt held up the cooked Lantern Festival, looked at the lights all over the street, and laughed loudly, "This year's Lantern Festival is not ordinary, it is said that the nobles in the palace will also come...Young master can bring the lady tomorrow Come out for a stroll, it's bustling!"

Mu Rugui's mind moved slightly, he took Yuanxiao and thanked him, then took out the golden melon seeds and handed them over.

The aunt was so frightened that she waved her hands and changed her address: "My lord, this is absolutely unacceptable."

"It's okay." Mu Rugui had already quietly merged into the crowd, and his figure disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Only then did the aunt realize that she had really met a nobleman.

"It's terrible." She put away the golden melon seeds and muttered to herself, "Which family's lady is lucky enough to marry such a good husband?"

Mu Rugui didn't think he was that good.

He carried the Lantern Festival and walked slowly towards the palace.

From the moment he left the bedroom, Mu Rugui began to regret it.

Xia Chaosheng's ability to say such words clearly showed that he was already in his heart.

But when he heard Xia Chaosheng talking about life and death, his mind was still empty.

Countless anger and fear filled Mu Rugui's heart, causing him to plunge into the cold winter wind.

Rather than saying that he is angry, it is better to say that he is afraid and escaping.

When Mu Rugui was awakened by the cold wind, he realized that the self who had always been decisive in killing, the self with blood on his hands... could not even accept the hypothesis put forward by Xia Chaosheng.

Xia Chaosheng, Xia Chaosheng.

It's not his life, it's better than his life.

When Mu Rugui returned to the palace, Hong Wu was anxiously pacing in front of the palace.

"Take it and warm it up." Mu Rugui handed over the Lantern Festival in his hand.

Hong Wu hurriedly ran up to pick up Yuan Xiao: "My lord, where have you been?"

"Go out for a walk." Mu Rugui pursed his lips, still thinking about the Lantern Festival, and ordered again, "It's hot, bring it to the princess to taste... Has the princess rested yet?"

"The lights are still on in the room, maybe he is not asleep."

"Still asleep?" Mu Rugui frowned immediately, "It's already this hour, why aren't you asleep?"

Red Friday choked for a while, thinking, you are arguing with the concubine, not only the concubine does not sleep in the mansion, everyone in the courtyard dare not sleep!

But Hong Wu never dared to say these words, he was silent for a moment, and tentatively said: "The princess's dinner is useless."

Mu Rugui's expression was completely gloomy, with a face full of storms, he rushed to the door of the bedroom with big strides, caught a glimpse of the attendants following behind him, and said coldly: "What are you waiting for? Go warm up the Lantern Festival!"

Hong Wu choked again, took Yuanxiao, and walked away step by step.

Mu Rugui took a deep breath in front of the bedroom door, the anger on his face disintegrated, he raised his hand, making a gesture to knock on the door, but he was afraid that the knock would wake up the sleeping Xia Chaosheng, so he hesitated to make a move.

After several hesitation, Mu Rugui pushed the door open.

Xia Chaosheng did not rest.

He was holding a volume of books, flipping through them sleepily, when he heard footsteps, he thought it was Xia Hua, and muttered without raising his head: "Is the prince back?"

Mu Rugui's heart surged with countless lingering feelings in an instant: "Chaosheng."

The scroll in Xia Chaosheng's hand fell to the ground, and he raised his head in surprise: "Uncle Jiu!"

He rushed over without hesitation, stammering: "Uncle Jiu, what I said... no... I didn't mean to make you angry, I just..."

Xia Chaosheng was just too scared.

He was afraid that that day would come, and he was even more afraid that Mu Rugui would turn into the lonely and arrogant appearance of his previous life again.

"It's my fault." Mu Rugui hugged Xia Chaosheng in his arms, and slowly shook his head, "There are some things that I should have told you clearly."

"what?"

"Chaosheng, you don't have to think about the future." Mu Rugui's voice was slightly hoarse with a smile, "I would like to live and die with you."

"Uncle Nine..."

"Chaosheng, you understand me, so don't refute." Mu Rugui covered his mouth softly, looked into his watery eyes, and changed the subject without a trace, "Tomorrow is fifteen, would you like to go out with me?" Do you want to watch the lanterns?"

Xia Chao gritted his teeth, shaking Mu Rugui's hand trembling all over.

Mu Rugui knew that he hadn't calmed down yet, so he sat patiently in front of the couch, stroking his loose black hair, and said: "I heard from people outside the mansion that there will be people from the palace for the lantern festival tomorrow, you If you don’t want to see them, then forget about it.”

"There will be people coming from the palace?" Xia Chaosheng managed to swallow back the sobs that were on his lips, and said in a muffled voice, "Could it be His Majesty..."

"No, the emperor's brother has been unwell recently, so it is impossible to go out of the palace to watch the lantern festival." Mu Rugui shook his head, "Even if he really wants to go out of the palace, he will choose a prince to go out of the palace on his behalf."

"Five princes?"

Mu Rugui was noncommittal, and when he saw Hong Wu bringing the warm Lantern Festival, he took it and fed it to Xia Chaosheng himself: "Taste it."

Xia Chaosheng blushed and took a sip, his eyes immediately rolled back with a smile.

Hong Wu sneaked a few glances, made up his mind, closed the door silently, and nodded to Xia Hua standing in the courtyard.

Xia Hua breathed a sigh of relief, and dragged Ticchan away.

Xia Chaosheng finished a bowl of Lantern Festival, he was full and his mood improved.

He lay on Mu Rugui's shoulder and whispered, "Uncle Jiu, let's not go to see the lanterns tomorrow."

Now in the capital, there are still rumors that they are not on good terms. If they go to see the lanterns together, and if the news reaches Liang Wang's ears, he may become suspicious again.

Mu Rugui blew out the lamp in front of the couch, turned over and pressed the restless Xia Chaosheng in front of him: "It's all up to you."

"Oh, in previous years in the Hou's Mansion, I would definitely go out to watch the lanterns." He murmured, "My mother used to say that she would book the lantern festival and let me see it alone."

Mu Rugui thought for a moment: "I..."

Xia Chaosheng quickly interrupted Uncle Jiu: "Don't! What's the point of me watching the lanterns alone?...My mother is just teasing me, Uncle Jiu, don't take it seriously."

Mu Rugui didn't take it seriously, but he had other ideas in his mind.

The night passed peacefully, but on the second day, a decree came from the palace, saying that the eleventh prince was going to watch the Lantern Festival and needed the guards of black armored cavalry.

And Xia Chaosheng, as the prince's teacher, naturally had to accompany him around.

"Why the Eleventh Prince?" Xia Chaosheng frowned after receiving the order, "Your Majesty did not let the Jinwu Guards escort the Eleventh Prince out of the palace."

After he complained, he figured it out again: "The Jinwu Guards have always only obeyed the orders of the emperor and the prince, and naturally they don't care about the eleventh prince, so they can only trouble the Xuanjia cavalry to act as guards on their behalf."

King Liang's move may have a deeper meaning.

The crown prince lost power, and only a prince of the right age, Mu Ruxu, could inherit the throne in the palace.

King Liang was suspicious. In order not to raise a second prince, he must "make enemies" for the fifth prince himself.

The eleventh prince, who was still young, was the target chosen by King Liang himself.

For this matter, Mu Rugui went to court once, and when he came back, he brought several bags of candied fruit for Xia Chaosheng.

"The Lantern Festival tonight may not be peaceful." Mu Rugui changed his court clothes, and said to him behind the screen, "Mu Ruxu is in the court hall, and there seems to be dissatisfaction in his words."

"Of course he is dissatisfied." Xia Chaosheng nodded in understanding, and took the clothes that Mu Rugui handed over, "He and Mu Ruqi have been fighting for so long, but they have not been able to get involved with your black armored cavalry...Look now. The Eleventh Prince was easily guarded by the black armored cavalry, so he was naturally annoyed."

Just as he was talking, Mu Rugui came out from behind the screen.

During the Lantern Festival, even if going to Beijing needs the guards of black armored cavalry to kill the enemy, it is inconvenient for the soldiers to wear armor.

Mu Rugui also changed into a dark black outfit, with long hair and high buns, making her look more broad-shouldered and long-legged.

Xia Chaosheng was dazzled for a moment, held his robe, and let out a blank "ah".

Mu Rugui, who was adjusting the wristband on his wrist, raised his eyelids and looked at him with deep eyes: "What?"

Xia Chaosheng quickly lowered his head and muttered with a blushing face, "It's nothing...Uncle Jiu, can you watch the lantern with me tonight?"

The law and order in Shangjing City has always been good, even if something happened at the Lantern Festival, it would not be a big deal.

Mu Rugui thought of this, and the corners of his lips curled slightly: "Accompany you."

Xia Chaosheng responded in a panic, and slipped away before Mu Rugui could react.

He ran back to the bedroom in one breath, and called Xia Hua and Qiu Chan: "Quick, find it for me, where did you put the horse-riding outfit?"

Xia Chaosheng's robes have always been arranged by Qiu Chan.

When she heard this, she was surprised and said: "Princess, that dress is just being washed, you..."

"What about the Flowing Brocade?"

"Take it for mending."

Xia Chaosheng was speechless for a while.

But Qiu Chan had already guessed that he was looking for the robes for watching the lanterns at night, and hurriedly took out all the robes he had collected.

"Why don't you wear this?" Qiu Chan spread the snow-white straight-fronted gown on the couch, "Pair it with the crane cloak that Master Hou gave you, it must look extravagant."

Xia Chaosheng's eyes fell on the robe, and saw that the hem was embroidered with golden zigzag patterns, which matched Mu Rugui's strong outfit very well, so he nodded contentedly: "That's it."

Even if Qiu Chan couldn't see it, when it was getting late and Mu Rugui came to look for Xia Chaosheng in a strong outfit, Qiu Chan would understand.

"My lord, my concubine has been waiting for you for a long time." Qiu Chan and Xia Hua bowed together, and Xia Chaosheng's anxious voice came from the room, "Uncle Jiu, why did you come?"

He pushed open the door, wrapped in a crane cloak, and hurried to Mu Rugui's side, the crane feathers on the cloak fluttered in the wind.

Mu Rugui was so keen, his eyes fell on Xia Chaosheng's reddish earlobe, and his heart was clear.

It turned out that the person he was thinking of was also thinking of him.

Mu Rugui grabbed Xia Chaosheng's waist violently, and carried him into the carriage amidst his exclamation.

They have important matters tonight, and they can't mess around in the carriage, but when Xia Zhaosheng got out of the carriage, the corners of his eyes were still stained red, and his lips were also a little red and swollen.

Fortunately, in the dim night, no one noticed his strangeness.

Xia Chaosheng cleared his throat, and bid farewell to Mu Rugui in front of the car: "Uncle Ninth, the Eleventh Prince is just ahead, I'm leaving now."

Mu Rugui felt itchy to see him pretending, but his face was indifferent: "Go."

Xia Chaosheng pretended to be calm and walked towards the guard of honor of the eleventh prince.

"Red Five." Mu Rugui looked at his back and called in a low voice, "Follow me."

Hong Wu, who was also dressed in strong clothes, appeared with a smile on his face: "Your subordinate will go right away."

In the night, there were more than a dozen figures, following the red five, hidden into the crowd.

The eleventh prince did not wear court clothes, and the accompanying eunuchs also wore ordinary clothes.

When Xia Chaosheng arrived, the young prince was holding the hand of his mother and concubine Haishi, clamoring to eat Lantern Festival.

"Sir." Xu Shi heard Xia Chaosheng's footsteps, and the Eleventh Prince turned and ran over, "Sir, I want to eat Yuanxiao."

Haishi hastily pulled the eleventh prince to his side: "Ruyi, don't be rude!"

The eleventh prince, Mu Ruyi, was dragged by his mother and concubine. Although he didn't know what he did wrong, he still timidly cupped his hands and bowed to Xia Chaosheng.

Xia Chaosheng was born in the Marquis's Mansion, and married Mu Rugui who held a black armored cavalry. Naturally, his status cannot be compared with that of an eleventh prince who has no ceremonies.

Hai Shi knew that he and the prince were just pawns for Prince Liang to check and balance the fifth prince. At this moment, he was in a panic and wanted to press the little prince to continue apologizing.

"Your Majesty will take you down to eat Yuanxiao, okay?"

Mu Ruyi's eyes lit up: "Okay."

Xia Chaosheng straightened his waist again, and saluted Haishi: "Your Majesty, let's go too."

Hai Shi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled and said: "Princess, there is no need to be too polite... According to Your Majesty's intention, the purpose of this lantern viewing is to share the joy with the people and not easily reveal her identity."

Xia Chaosheng nodded accordingly: "I understand."

He no longer called the eleventh prince "His Royal Highness", but only regarded him as the younger brother of the family. He found a shop with a large family and lined up to buy three bowls of Lantern Festival.

The lights are bright, and the streets are crowded with people.

The aunt who cooked the Lantern Festival was very talkative. She took the golden melon seeds from Xia Chaosheng and laughed, "A nobleman also gave me golden melon seeds yesterday."

Xia Zhaosheng's thoughts moved slightly: "But last night?"

"Exactly." The aunt raised her head, saw Xia Chaosheng's face by the light, and couldn't help but exclaimed, "Young master, you are even more handsome than him!"

Xia Chao was happy, but the smile on his face soon froze at the corner of his mouth because of what the aunt said next: "However, that young master should bring his wife to enjoy the lantern today, I wonder if we can meet again. "

"Miss?" He forced a short laugh through his teeth.

The aunt did not doubt that there was him, she held the Lantern Festival, and nodded cheerfully: "Isn't it? Such a noble person, the lady who married back home must also be a fairy..."

Xia Chaosheng shut his mouth completely, even when he was eating Yuanxiao, his expression froze.

The eleventh prince is a child after all. After drinking a bowl of Yuanxiao, he forgot his mother's concubine's advice. He leaned in front of him and muttered, "Sir, why are you so sad? Is it because the Yuanxiao is not delicious?"

Xia Chaosheng clenched the hand holding the spoon slightly, and said with a smile on his face, "It's a little sour."

The Eleventh Prince: "..."

Eleventh Prince: "Huh?"

"Dian... No, young master, let's go to see the lanterns." Xia Chaosheng put down his spoon, stopped worrying about the troubled Lantern Festival, and took Mu Ruyi's hand instead, "How is it?"

Mu Ruyi nodded her head, "Sir, it would be great if there was a lantern festival in Yueyue."

Xia Chaosheng heard the little prince who was not as tall as his own legs mumbling softly, and the anger in his heart turned into helplessness.

The eleventh prince was just a child, but because he was born in the royal family, he was pushed to the front of the stage prematurely.

If King Liang really moved Li Chu's heart in the future, Mu Ruyi might die soon, right?

Xia Chaosheng is not a sentimental person, and he has witnessed the palace change in his previous life, but he looked at the little prince bouncing around, who had never even seen a sugar man, and reminded him in a low voice: "Your Highness, don't say this in front of His Majesty. face to say."

The little prince was visibly sluggish: "I know, father...don't like me saying these things."

What King Liang wanted was a prince who put his mind on society and calculations like the former prince and fifth prince, not a child who only knew how to play around.

Compared with the fifth prince, the eleventh prince has no chance of winning, but if he loses the Sacred Heart directly, the ending will be even more miserable.

Xia Chaosheng brought Mu Ruyi to the Lantern Festival worriedly, and his attention was quickly attracted by Mu Rugui standing in the lights.

His Uncle Jiu stood in front of a half-human-high rabbit lantern with his hands behind his back, half of his body was illuminated by the flames.

The flickering flames illuminated his deep brows and eyes, and also diluted the hostility on his body.

Really beautiful.

Passing girls in veiled hats threw flowers and handkerchiefs at him one after another.

Mu Rugui stayed at the border all year round, didn't know the customs in the capital, but he also knew that the flower might not be able to catch it, so he had to step back to the lamp, with a tense expression and a rare embarrassment.

"Ninth Emperor... Ninth Uncle." Eleventh Prince also saw Mu Rugui, jumped up and down and bowed to salute, "How is Ninth Uncle?"

Seeing the eleventh prince, Mu Rugui expected Xia Chaosheng to be at the side, and immediately relaxed: "Are you alone?"

"No." Mu Ruyi shook her head happily, "Sir is with me."

However, Xia Chaosheng did not accompany the eleventh prince as Mu Rugui thought.

He stood in the orange light, his expression blurred.

Mu Rugui's heart tightened, he walked over quickly, and took Xia Chaosheng's hand: "Why is it so cold?"

As he said that, he was about to pull him out of the lantern festival.

"Let's go to the carriage."

"Uncle Nine." Xia Chaosheng didn't move.

He broke away from Mu Rugui's hand, picked up the stove again, and said meaningfully: "Uncle Jiu has seen many beautiful ladies?"

Mu Rugui: "..."

Mu Rugui: "?"

Xia Zhaosheng was just joking, and was not angry. Seeing that Mu Rugui was at a loss, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, and explained in a soft voice, "Uncle Jiu, if you take those flowers and handkerchiefs, you can To marry someone back home."

Mu Rugui became nervous instantly, and lowered his head to dust off the hem of his clothes, for fear of getting flowers.

Xia Chaosheng almost laughed out loud, rubbing his eyes: "Uncle Jiu, I know you are not..."

Before he finished speaking, a bouquet of flowers smashed on his body.

Xia Chaosheng: "..."

Mu Rugui: "..."

A float came from nowhere and came to them. The little ladies on the float who pretended to be goddesses threw flowers at Xia Chaosheng one after another. Even the eleventh prince, who knew nothing about it, chased the float and threw the flowers he had picked up. Throw it on him.

Mu Rugui's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot in an instant, and without saying a word, he took Xia Chaosheng's hand and walked back.

The two stopped and walked until they reached the depths of the lantern festival, before they completely avoided the rain of flowers.

Xia Chaosheng was panting, looking at Mu Rugui's back, his eyes gradually became dazed.

He called sweetly: "Uncle Jiu."

Mu Rugui's answer was gritted his teeth: "You are already married to me."

Xia Chaosheng blinked his eyes in confusion.

Mu Rugui turned around aggressively, brushed off the fallen flowers on his shoulders, and kissed him brutally.

Lips pressed together, Xia Chao suddenly opened his eyes wide.

The faint scent of flowers lingering in his nostrils was quickly replaced by the breath of Mu Rugui's body.

Xia Chaosheng's feet were soft, and when he heard a voice behind him, he froze all over, and said in shame and indignation: "Since Uncle Jiu knows that I'm married, why did he tell the lady who sells the Lantern Festival that there is a lady at home?"

This time it was Mu Rugui's turn to freeze.

The author has something to say: Sprinkle sugar, sprinkle sugar, sprinkle sugar!

I dreamed that everyone poured white (nutritional) liquid on my body woo woo woo
