The next day was Wei Ji's rest day, so he got up early to change his badge, and came back to ask Wang Muhan to paint his name, Wang Muhan had just packed Chu Shaoling's breakfast in the palace, when he saw that Wei Ji was about to leave the palace, he hurriedly stopped him, and said softly: "Master Wei, Your Highness still has something to say, you go ask An to go out of the palace before you leave the palace, you will spend a day and a night to rest this time, and you don't care about this moment."

Wei Ji's skin was thin, and his face turned red when he heard the words, he hurriedly said: "My lord...you can just call me Wei Ji, I really can't afford to be a lord."

Wang Muhan looked at Wei Ji who was wearing a first-grade guard brocade robe in front of him, and he felt a little funny. He was so young, and now he was wearing a black brocade robe. Wang Muhan smiled: "Why can't I afford it? Your Highness is waiting inside. It's cold here. , Master Wei, go in quickly."

Wei Ji's face turned even redder, he pursed his lower lip and entered the side hall, the maid inside saw Wei Ji coming and hurriedly passed on the news, after a while another big maid came out and said with a smile, "Lord Wei, come here."

The hall was full of maids, Wei Ji felt a little cramped, followed the big court lady into the Nuan Pavilion, and walked around a large ebony and gold screen, inside Chu Shaoling was sitting behind a pear-blossom yellow octagonal table, the maids put down the last few meals, Withdrew quietly, only Chu Shaoling and Wei Ji were left in the Nuan Pavilion.

Wei Ji was a little embarrassed, approached and knelt down to pay his respects, before he knelt down, Chu Shaoling helped him up, Chu Shaoling looked at Wei Ji's silver-patterned ink-colored brocade robe with satisfaction, and the emerald jade badge on his waist, and chuckled: "This The clothes look really good on you... have you got up early to eat?"

Wei Ji blushed slightly, and said in a low voice, "Return to Your Highness, not yet."

Seeing Wei Ji's stern expression, Chu Shaoling was a little amused, and said: "Then sit down and eat something with me, and it won't be too late for you to leave the palace after eating."

Wei Ji looked at the meal on the table with some hesitation, and pursed his lower lip: "His Royal Highness, use it first, and reward the minister after His Highness finishes eating."

"Sit down as soon as I tell you." Chu Shaoling lowered his voice, deliberately scaring him, "I'm too used to you? Dare to bargain with me."

Naturally, Wei Ji didn't dare, so he had no choice but to sit down under Chu Shaoling, and every meal during the banquet would not be served until Chu Shaoling had touched it. Look, Wei Ji is very sensible, no matter how much he praises him, he will not be pampered, and he eats well and is very eye-catching. Chu Shaoling made a steamed dumpling for Wei Ji, and said with a smile: "You are just growing up. I can’t let up on food, and if I ask you to come over to eat in the future, just be obedient, I definitely can’t finish eating at this table every day, if someone is with me, I will also increase my appetite.”

Wei Ji swallowed a mouthful of rice, looked at Chu Shaoling and nodded honestly: "I...understood."

Wei Ji is not stupid, the prince's meals are naturally good, but what makes him happier is that he can eat with Chu Shaoling, Wei Ji's mouth is tense, afraid that he will not be able to help laughing, so he lowers his head and eats a bun.

Not long after both of them finished using it, the palace servants brought tea, Chu Shaoling took a sip and put it down, Wei Ji held the small teacup and didn't drink it, it was time to go to the Xinxin Academy, Chu Shaoling was at Wei Ji's head She rubbed her hands: "Go, come back early tomorrow."

Wei Ji blushed a little, knelt down and kowtowed to Chu Shaoling.

The Wei Mansion knew that Wei Ji was taking a rest today, so he parked his carriage early on the official road behind the outer city and waited. The Wei family knew about Wei Ji's promotion to the first-class bodyguard of Bitao Garden yesterday. When the halberd came out, he quickly approached to greet him: "Seventh young master is overjoyed, it's been less than a month, and he's already a third-rank master."

Wei Ji pursed his lips and smiled: "Stop talking, it will make people laugh, go home quickly."

The butler smiled, helped Wei Ji into the carriage, sat outside by himself, and greeted the boy who drove the carriage.

Sitting in the carriage, Wei Ji's face was still a little red, he had been happy since last night, not because he was happy about his promotion, but because he was happy about what Chu Shaoling said yesterday.

The painting that Chu Shaoling drew for Wei Ji was not framed, nor was he going to hang it up to show off, but carefully folded it and put it in the wooden box at the bottom of his book case, hiding it together with the previous ones.

Wei Ji recalled Chu Shaoling's every move, every word and every word just now, his heart was happy, his face became even redder, Wei Ji couldn't help but quietly touched the top of his head, which was the place Chu Shaoling rubbed just now.

Not long after arriving at the Wei Mansion, Wei Ji jumped out of the car and came in, first went to the main room to greet the old lady, the Wei family did not have a separate family, an old lady lived with three sons, Wei Ji's father, Wei Ming, was the eldest son.

The old lady Wei also knew about Wei Ji's promotion, and she smiled more lovingly. She held Wei Ji and rubbed it together for a long time, and said joyfully, "Ji'er is so upbeat, the day before yesterday your elder brother was just promoted to the commander of the Xiaoqi Battalion, and then you were promoted to the commander of the Xiaoqi battalion. Third-rank bodyguards, the ancestors are showing their spirits, and you are competing with each other."

"Brother has been promoted to the commander of the Xiaoqi Battalion?" Wei Ji had never heard of it in Bitao Garden, "Brother is originally from the Hussar Battalion, and it shouldn't be his turn..."

The old lady Wei was still full of joy: "If you don't say that you brothers are striving for success, I don't know much about the future. Your elder brother came back the day before yesterday, and your father returned to the army before he had time to serve wine. He was in a hurry."

Wei Ji wondered in his heart, could it be His Highness... Wei Ji's face was a little hot, and he felt that he was being sentimental. The elder brother has always been capable, and it will be a matter of time before he is promoted to the commander.

"Come over to eat with me tonight, go see your mother first." The old lady Wei smiled and patted Wei Ji on the back, "Don't change your clothes, let your mother look happy."

Wei Ji nodded and smiled.

Wei Ji's mother, Mrs. Jiang, had been waiting for her youngest son. Seeing Wei Ji's more heroic smile, the corners of her eyes were crooked. She hurriedly pulled her son to sit down and ordered people to prepare a foot stove. Good day?"

"It's all good." Mrs. Jiang's two sons have been promoted recently, and she feels very comfortable. The eldest son Wei Zhan is calm and capable. Promotion is a matter of time. It is a surprise for Mrs. Jiang that the younger son can also compete. He said in a loud voice, "Being the bodyguard next to the eldest prince, you must be careful in everything. From now on, you will be by His Highness's side every day. You must have a plan for what you should say and do. Don't be complacent just because you have won some favors." , be careful not to stand out in everything, understand?"

Thinking of Chu Shaoling's heart warming, Wei Ji nodded upon hearing this, "My son understands."

Mrs. Jiang smiled and rubbed Wei Ji's face, and said softly: "Originally, your master always scolded you because of your going to Bitao Garden. Who knew that you had good luck, and such a great blessing was valued by the eldest prince. There are countless guards, how many first-class guards like you are there?"

"There should be eight around His Highness, but it has been less than this number. Now that I have been added, there are already seven."

Mrs. Jiang nodded, and said in a low voice: "I guess you are the youngest among those people. You should be honest on weekdays, and don't make mistakes and let others catch and bully you..." Mrs. Jiang became more and more worried, "Those big guards Is there anyone who doesn't like you? I'll give you some respect, and you can use it to show respect..."

"Mother! No one bullied me." Wei Ji held Mrs. Jiang's hand and blushed, "Brother guards are all very nice." The prince in Bitao Garden has already mentioned it up and down. Bully him.

Mrs. Jiang felt relieved, and held Wei Ji in her arms for another half a day. The girl outside came in and said that the master is back and wants to see the seventh young master. Mrs. Jiang smiled: "Go quickly."

Wei Ji nodded, poured another bowl of tea for Mrs. Jiang, and left.

……

The next day when Wei Ji returned to the palace at Shenshi, Chu Shaoling left a black-bone chicken and old ginseng soup untouched for dinner, and ordered someone to simmer it on the stove until Wei Ji came back to eat. Wei Ji had Wang Muhan invite him into the bedroom as soon as Wei Ji returned to Bitao Garden.

Chu Shaoling looked at the person in front of him and laughed: "It's just a day at home, why is his face so bad? Frozen?"

Wei Ji forced a smile, approached to greet Chu Shaoling, and said in a low voice, "No, I didn't sleep well last night."

Chu Shaoling looked at Wei Ji's face with a bit of distress, and asked someone to bring over the reserved chicken soup. Chu Shaoling sent out all the maids in the Nuan Pavilion, and pulled Wei Ji to sit on the couch. Chu Shaoling touched Wei Ji's neck The forehead is not hot.

The chicken soup had just come off the stove, but it was still piping hot, Wei Ji drank it in small sips, and his complexion improved a bit.

Chu Shaoling smiled and said, "How can you rest assured about your home after this? What have you been doing?"

Wei Ji shook his head, Chu Shaoling saw that he was in a daze and felt funny, couldn't help but hugged him, and chuckled lightly: "Did you miss me..."

Wei Ji's face turned red, Chu Shaoling took the empty bowl in Wei Ji's hand and put it on the small table in front of the couch, looking at the person in front of him a little distracted, just about to say something Wei Ji stood up, Chu Shaoling was amused, Leaning on the couch to see what he was going to do to hide, Wei Ji hesitated, took out a purse from his arms, and said with shame on his face, "Your Highness... Your Highness, this is, my father..."

Wei Ji really didn't know what to say, Chu Shaoling took the purse from Wei Ji's hand with a smile, opened it, took a look, drank, a stack of banknotes.

Chu Shaoling understood, and chuckled lightly: "What did your father say?"

Wei Ji had never done such a thing before, his face was flushed, and his words were not smooth: "Thank you... Your Highness for showing love to my brother and to my minister, and my family... will always..."

"Needless to say, I know what your father means." Chu Shaoling couldn't help laughing, got up and stuffed the wad of bank notes into Wei Ji's arms, and said in a low voice, "When you go back, your father will ask me Accepted, you keep these bank notes as pocket money..."

"Then how do we do it?" Wei Ji did this bribe for the first time, he was ashamed in his heart, he refused to accept it, and refused to open Wei Ji's collar, Chu Shaoling glanced over, his face turned cold instantly.

Wei Ji still didn't realize it, and said anxiously in a low voice: "I don't want it... Your Highness, please accept it..."

"Wei Ji..." Chu Shaoling lightly stroked a bloodstain on Wei Ji's neck, his voice was cold, "What's going on here?"
