Chen Tingyue was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Do you think I am a three-year-old child? You can still be bullied."

Zhao Liren cast a glance at him, snorted and said, "If you have the ability, don't stand here with me all wounded."

Chen Tingyue choked and couldn't speak for a moment, so she picked up her teacup to cover up and said, "Wai Cha, Xi Cha..."

Zhao Li laughed angrily, but didn't continue talking, took a sip of tea, and continued: "You heard what the imperial physician said, you must protect yourself, you must never get hurt again, you understand?"

Chen Tingyue smiled wryly, put down the cup and said, "Understood, don't worry."

Zhao Liren snorted and said, "I'll tell you one more time, so that you won't dare to say a word for fear of getting into trouble and being bullied. I didn't bring you here to be a man with your tail between your legs."

Chen Tingyue sighed helplessly, and said: "No, you are His Highness the Crown Prince, for nothing but you, I will not lose face of the Prince's Mansion."

"It's about the same." While talking, Zhao Liren handed him a soft and cute little pillow made of gold, "Are you tired? Do you want to lean on it or sleep?"

Chen Tingyue shook her head, took the pillow and put it behind her, after a while, hesitated for a while and said: "But you should tell me what you need to pay attention to at that time, otherwise it will be bad if you cause any trouble. "

Since returning to Beijing, in this lifetime, he has stayed in the Prince's Mansion and seldom went out, so he has no idea what is going on in the court today.I don't even know if it is different from the previous life.

Seeing his serious expression, Zhao Liren really thought about it carefully, and said after a while: "You said that, I thought about it, it seems that there is really no one who can't be provoked." After speaking, he chuckled twice.

When Chen Tingyue was teased by him like this, she wasn't angry or laughed.He bowed his head and ignored him.

Zhao Liren just smiled and poured him another cup of tea and said, "Okay, okay, I apologize to you, I shouldn't tease you, don't be angry, it hurts your health, your health is not good. "

Chen Tingyue glanced at him, but remained silent.Zhao Liren continued to make amends: "I know you are doing it for my own good, but what I said is also true. Listen to me and tell you carefully."

"In recent years, the emperor has gradually become more and more tired of the affairs of the court. It is not an exaggeration to say that he does not care about the affairs of the court. Therefore, I discussed and acted with the elders."

"As for the harem... There is no one in my natal family, and the remaining concubines don't need to be afraid."

"Empress Dowager?" Zhao Liren sneered and said, "You know what I mean."

"I don't need to talk about the rest of the princes and ministers?"

"So even if you committed the heinous crime of cooperating with the enemy and betraying the country, I can protect you. Do you have any worries? Huh?"

Chen Tingyue took a sip of tea in embarrassment. He felt that Zhao Liren's last sentence, "Huh?" 'A little too frivolous.But seeing that Zhao Liren looked normal, he comforted himself by thinking too much.

Putting down the teacup, Chen Tingyue said with a wry smile, "I'm not just doing nothing in collaborating with the enemy and traitorous country."

Zhao Liren laughed and said, "Don't be serious, I'm just saying this, just as an example, don't worry about it."

Chen Tingyue shook her head in disapproval and said: "It's fine for others to say that. You are a majestic prince of a country. You really shouldn't say this. If someone else hears it, it will cause rumors at least, and it will be a big deal at worst."

If Zhao Liren dared to say this, he could guarantee that it would not spread, but after Chen Tingyue said so, Zhao Liren still nodded his head and responded with a smile.

It swayed all the way like a game.Originally, it was a ten-day journey, but Zhao Lisheng pushed it down to three days.Now I went back and wandered leisurely, and after wandering for more than half a month, I finally saw the gate of the capital.

Beijing had already got the news, and now the civil and military ministers were standing at the gate of the city to welcome him.

Although there is a saying in the family law of the ancestors: those who are sick cannot be emperors.But who made the current emperor only have this son?It cannot be said that there is only one son, it should be said that there is only one child!

Zhao Liren, as the only son of the present emperor and the son of the first wife, is extremely honorable even if he is inconvenient. No matter whether he can be the emperor or not, no one can underestimate him.

But speaking of it, after so many years, none of the civil and military ministers knew what the emperor was thinking.The emperors of all dynasties had many sons and grandchildren, and they were afraid that the blood would not be able to continue. Only the current emperor, Zhao Liren, is the only seedling.

The palace of concubines and beauties is full of people, but there is not a single one.You want to say that the emperor is not good, right?Where did the prince come from?You say the emperor can do it, so why is there only one prince?

Of course, there are many twists and turns in this, those new recruits naturally don't know, and those veteran ministers who know all keep their mouths shut and dare not say anything.

They can't allow them to think too much, the prince's lord has already arrived at the gate of the city.

Everyone hastily straightened their clothes and took two steps forward. When the crown prince's lord stopped, a huge group of people knelt down on the ground and shouted: "Welcome to your highness, your highness, go a thousand years, a thousand years old."

The Shu brocade gauze around the carriage has been replaced with a cloud brocade blackout cloth.Everyone couldn't see clearly what was going on in the car, and of course, they didn't dare to look up.

Zhao Liren, who was sitting in the carriage, had no intention of coming out, poured a cup of tea for Chen Tingyue, and said, "Get up."

The little eunuch sitting outside hastily shouted: "My lords, please get down!"

Then everyone got up.

The gate of the city is not a place to talk, after everyone greeted them a little bit, they moved out of the way and let the prince's honor pass by.

Only then did the guard of honor and guards enter the city mighty and mighty.

Everyone went back to the Prince's Mansion first, settled down for a while, Zhao Liren led Chen Tingyue into his yard, and then said: "It's a bit hard to travel, you can rest here for a while, I will go to the palace first .” As he spoke, he patted Chen Tingyue’s hand lightly.

Chen Tingyue smiled and said, "I'm fine, you can go quickly."

Zhao Liren nodded and said, "I'll take care of you." Everyone hurriedly responded with their luggage.

Nodding with Chen Tingyue, Zhao Liren left.

Although the chariots and horses walked slowly, he was not in good health and always felt unwell, but he didn't say anything. Seeing Zhao Liren walking away, Chen Tingyue let go of the smile on his face.

He rubbed the pain in his chest, twitched the corners of his mouth, and looked around.At this time, Wang Mian, the steward and eunuch of the Prince's Mansion, stepped forward, with a smile on his face, and said respectfully: "Fourth master, before leaving, His Highness told the people in the dining room that the bird's nest prepared for you is ready, and the servant has asked them to deliver it to you." here you go, use some

How about I serve you to rest later? "He could see Chen Tingyue's tiredness, but Zhao Liren had already told him to eat before resting. That's why he stepped forward.

Chen Tingyue nodded.Wang Mian breathed a sigh of relief, and her smile deepened.After saluting, he withdrew.

Not long after, a palace lady in a light-colored long skirt with a flowing shirt and flowing clouds came in with a bowl of bird's nest.

The servants in the Prince's Mansion are all checked and screened in layers.The appearance may not be outstanding, but the mouth must be the strictest and the rules must be the best.Some of the unrighteous ones were screened out early.Those who are left are those who have the most eyesight and heart.

Putting the bowl on the table respectfully, Gong'e bowed her head and stepped aside.After lightly scooping it with a spoon a few times, Chen Tingyue swallowed it slowly.

After waiting for a while to eat, Wang Mian led Chen Tingyue to the bedroom with a smile.

Chen Tingyue lived with Zhao Liren in the dormitory before, so he is naturally familiar with the road.But after entering, I found something wrong.

Previously, there were two beds in the dormitory, separated by a [-]-fold glass landscape painting screen in the middle.

Now the big screen is gone, and there is only one bed left.The previous bed was made of nanmu, but now this one is made of mahogany.

Chen Tingyue frowned, and opened his mouth to ask, but after thinking about it, let's forget about it, let's talk about it when Zhao Liren comes back.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Tingyue turned to Wang Mian, "This is His Highness's bed, there is a difference between high and low, I can't sleep, is there another room?"

Wang Mian looked distressed, "Fourth master, there is a house, but it has not been smoked with a smoke cage. It is a bit damp and not easy to live in."

Chen Tingyue frowned, "It's okay, I'll be fine soon." Saying that, she lifted her foot and was about to go out.

Wang Mian hurriedly knelt on the ground with a look of embarrassment on his face, "Fourth master atones for your sins. His Highness ordered you to live here before he left. If you come back and find that you live in a damp house, you will be punished. Please take care of your highness, fourth master." Come on, let's rest first..."

Chen Tingyue frowned, glanced at Wang Mian, and exhaled, "Forget it, let's stay here first, and wait for His Highness to come back."

Wang Mian breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you, Fourth Master, for your compassion." Then she called Gong'e to help Chen Tingyue undress.

He waved his hand to signal for Gong'e, who came up to serve, to step down, Chen Tingyue took off his outer shirt by himself, and lay down on the bed.He is indeed a little tired.

I thought to myself: This body is too bad, and now I just sit in the carriage for a few days, and I feel a little uncomfortable.Just thinking about it, he fell asleep after a while.

Gong'e, who was guarding the palace, was even more afraid to make a sound, and stood with her head bowed like a puppet.

Besides, Zhao Liren changed into a black dragon court uniform and a nine-dragon crown on his head.After entering the palace, first go to Qianqing Palace to greet the emperor.

Although the emperor has become more and more lazy in recent years, as long as he has not abdicated, he is the most powerful person in this dynasty. Even if Zhao Liren is his only son, he must abide by his rules.

The emperor sat high on the dragon chair, looking down at Zhao Liren with unclear meaning.

Because of Zhao Liren's inconvenience, he has been exempted from his etiquette all these years ago.Now after saying hello, she sits in a wheelchair with downcast eyes.

"Is this tour going well?" asked the emperor.

"Going back to my father, everything is going well. Along the way, although the people can't live and work in peace and contentment, they have no worries about food and clothing." Zhao Liren replied.

"Really? How did I hear that you stayed in Luling for more than half a month this time? Why?" the emperor asked with some ambiguity.

Zhao Liren chuckled inwardly, and secretly said: "Here we come." He knew that this matter could not be hidden from the emperor at all, of course, he never thought of hiding it, he knew in his heart that the emperor would not do anything.

Although the relationship between their father and son has been delicate these years, it is not as tense as before, but it seems to be mutual benefit and mutual assistance.

Zhao Liren cupped his hands and said in a loud voice: "Reporting to my father, there is a reason why my son stayed in Luling for a long time."

"Oh? Then you can talk about it."

"When I first arrived in Luling, I found many green forests and grasses gathered together. Most of these people have no law and regard human life as worthless. I am afraid that accidents will happen, and the people will be affected by then, so I stayed in Luling for a while. Time." Zhao Liren picked up some unimportant things and said.

"Then what did you find?"

"Those people from Jianghu sect gathered together for some activities. When I arrived, I was gathering in a family to make trouble. I summoned the local officials and asked the local officials to rectify it."

"But how did I hear that you used officers and soldiers?" This sentence has a vague sense of blame.

Zhao Liren's expression remained unchanged, and he replied: "Father, those green forests have already gathered together. If the officers and soldiers are not used, I'm afraid they won't retreat in fear, and my son has no choice but to do so."

"Is that so?" The emperor casually played with the Buddha in his hand, his tone becoming more and more unclear.

"I dare not lie to my father, that's true." Zhao Liren shared the song with his eyes downcast, his expression calm and his tone calm.

The emperor stopped talking.As the emperor, he has the greatest power, what is there that he doesn't know?He didn't say it, he had his own considerations.

Closing his eyes and changing the subject, the emperor said: "Your grandmother has missed you for a long time, now that she is back, go and have a look, don't make her worry

Heart. "

Zhao Liren was not surprised by his reaction. Hearing the words, he cupped his hands and replied, "Yes, I know."

"Go." He waved his hand to drive him out, the emperor didn't want to deal with him anymore.

Zhao Liren took advantage of the situation and retreated.The emperor in the palace sat tall, looking at his leaving back with an inexplicable expression.

Seeing Zhao Liren come out, Xie Yang stepped forward to push his wheelchair, and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, do you want to go back?"

Zhao Liren shook his head, "Go to Shoukang Palace."

Xie Yang responded in a low voice, and pushed the wheelchair towards Shoukang Palace.

I got the news early on that when Zhao Liren arrived, the Empress Dowager Zhang's personal nanny, Feng Nanny, was already waiting outside the hall.

"Oh, Your Highness is finally here. My wife has been waiting for you for a long time." Mother Feng smiled and saluted.

Zhao Liren smiled, while Xie Yang behind him was sullen.

"I talked with my father for a while, and came here as soon as I came out of Qianqing Palace. I'm so lonely, I made my grandmother wait for so long."

Nanny Feng smiled and said: "Your Highness is serious, it is the right thing to talk to the emperor." As she spoke, she led Zhao Liren in.

At this time, the queen mother was sitting in the palace, and the maid beside her was gently fanning her.Seeing Zhao Liren coming in, the queen mother smiled, and before Zhao Liren saluted, she waved her hands and said, "Quickly excuse me, come forward and let Ai's family take a look, after walking for so long, you have lost weight." ?”

Zhao Liren slightly raised his hand, and Xie Yang pushed the wheelchair forward twice.

Zhao Liren smiled and said: "Grandmother Lao is worried, her grandson is not filial."

The queen mother took a closer look at his expression, and said with a smile: "The son is a hundred years old, and he has been worried for 99 years. You and the emperor are the heart of Ai's family. If you don't worry about you, who else can you worry about? Not good, but the people around you are not good at serving you?"

"I think it's because of the fatigue of the boat, so it shouldn't be a serious problem." Zhao Liren thought for a while.

The queen mother shook her head in disapproval and said: "Aijia is still worried. The people around you must be careless. You look like you are sick. Call an imperial doctor to show you."

Zhao Liren laughed and said: "It's just that I'm a little tired. I don't need a doctor to see me. My grandson doesn't feel unwell, just take a rest."

"Hey, you child, don't shy away from medical treatment." The queen mother persuaded earnestly.

"Save the grandson, don't worry, grandma."

"Where can the Ai family rest assured!" The Queen Mother was sighing, then changed the topic and continued: "Well, the House of Internal Affairs just sent a few palace servants, and the Ai family sees that they are very good at serving these few days. Yes, you pick one to go and serve you personally, so the Ai family can feel more at ease."

Zhao Liren sneered in her heart, she knew that she would not let the imperial doctor look casually, she just refused her once, she can't refuse her a second time, she is just waiting here.

But it didn't show at all on the face, and said with a smile: "I am sorry to trouble the emperor's grandmother to worry, and my son is terrified."

"Isn't it right for us elders to worry about you children and grandchildren?" The Queen Mother smiled.As she spoke, she raised her hand slightly, and Mother Feng, who was beside her, gave up her commitment and stepped back gently.

After a while, five or six beautiful maids came in.They lined up in a row, raised their heads and lowered their eyes so that Zhao Liren could see their faces clearly.

Zhao Liren glanced at it casually, nodded casually and said, "Just the one on the far right."

The Queen Mother took a look at that Gong'e, nodded with a smile, and said: "You have a good eye, although she is not the best among these few people, she can do everything."

Zhao Liren smiled and said nothing.

The two pretended to be filial mothers for a while, and then the queen mother said: "Okay, it's getting late, the Ai family won't keep you for dinner, you look so ugly, go back and have a rest. "

Zhao Liren smiled and cupped his hands and said, "Yes, the grandson will leave first."

"Okay, okay, go, if you feel uncomfortable anywhere, go to Xuan imperial physician to see, don't shy away from medical treatment." The queen mother said again.

Zhao Liren nodded in response.Xie Yang stepped forward and pushed Zhao Liren back out.

Until Zhao Liren's figure disappeared, the kindness on the Empress Dowager's face disappeared in an instant like a switch.Looking at the direction Zhao Liren left with a faint expression, he chuckled lightly.

Gong'e next to her seemed to have neither seen nor heard, and there was no movement.

Mother Feng stepped forward and muttered: "After sitting for a while, the Queen Mother is tired, right? Get down and have a rest." As she spoke, she helped the Queen Mother get up.

Empress Dowager Zhang lifted Nanny Feng's hand, and said indifferently: "What's the point of this idea, as long as this girl can give birth to the Ai family's royal orthodox blood, everything is worth it."

Nanny Feng helped the Queen Mother to go inside, and the voice came from far and near: "It will definitely do what the Queen Mother wishes..."

"hope so......"

As soon as he left the palace, Zhao Liren's face relaxed. Xie Yang knew that he was in a bad mood, so he didn't dare to say anything, and without delay, he helped Zhao Liren into the carriage and headed towards the Prince's Mansion.

Pitiful for the little girl behind who was carrying the palace maid given by the queen mother, she couldn't keep up with Zhao Liren's carriage, so she could only inquire all the way to the Prince's Mansion in extreme embarrassment.

As a result, it didn't enter the courtyard of the Prince's Mansion at all, but was carried into the backyard from behind.

Although both the backyard and the front yard are the prince's mansion, the backyard and the front yard are completely separated. There is a ten-foot-high wall and there are not even trees around, so it is impossible to climb over.There is only one small gate, and there are guards guarding it all day long.

After entering the courtyard, Zhao Liren didn't go anywhere else, but went straight to the direction of the sleeping hall.

Unexpectedly, before he arrived, he saw some noise from a distance, frowned, stepped forward a few steps, and immediately lowered his face when he saw Chen Tingyue. "What's the proper way to be noisy?"

Only then did the crowd see Zhao Liren, they hurriedly knelt down and saluted, only Chen Tingyue was standing still, looking a little out of the ordinary.

Pursing her lips, Chen Tingyue did not speak.Zhao Liren grimaced, and sternly said: "Duan Cong, are you dead? Didn't you see your master's face?" Kneeling aside, Duan Cong did not defend himself, bowed his head and admitted his mistake.

Just as Wang Mian was about to explain, Zhao Liren led Chen Tingyue back to the main hall.Before leaving, he threw a sentence: "No one is allowed to come to the main hall alone!"

After entering the main hall, Zhao Liren helped Chen Tingyue to sit on the soft bed of Dong Nuan Pavilion, touched his pale face, and asked calmly, "Have you taken today's medicine?"

Chen Tingyue paused, shook his head and said, "It's not too late."

Zhao Liren's face darkened twice, and he scolded, "Wang Mian!"

Wang Mian hurried in, "Your Highness."

"Gu asked you to take good care of you. How do you serve you? It's already this hour, and the medicine hasn't been taken yet. How can you neglect the master like this?" Zhao Liren's face was dripping with gloom.

Wang Mian had a bitter expression on her face, and hurriedly admitted her mistake.Li Rusu stepped forward to make an offering, and said in a low voice, "You servant will bring it now."

Zhao Liren didn't stop him.After Li Rusu bowed and exited, he hurried towards the direction of the kitchen.

The people in the main hall were left looking at each other.

Poured a cup of hot tea to Chen Tingyue, Zhao Liren didn't ask him what's the matter, put his arms around Chen Tingyue's shoulders, and gently kissed his forehead, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Chen Tingyue shook her head.His mouth moved, and he was about to explain.Zhao Liren moved his lips from the center of his eyebrows to his lips.Kissed him lightly, and said in a low voice: "It's okay, everything's okay, as long as you're fine and okay."

A blush welled up on Chen Tingyue's pale face, she stepped back, avoided Zhao Liren's kiss, and said in a low voice, "I'm fine."

Zhao Liren touched his face, "You have to rest first, when the medicine is brought, you should eat it while it's hot, you know?"

Chen Tingyue nodded.Looking at Zhao Tingyue's face again, Zhao Liren left the Nuan Pavilion with a sullen face.

Seeing his gloomy face, everyone in the main hall did not dare to breathe, and knelt down to salute.

Zhao Liren didn't tell them to stand up, but he followed his fingertips a little bit, and said in a low and gloomy voice, "Come on."

Duan Cong stepped forward and bowed, and replied: "His Royal Highness..."

After Duan Cong's rhetoric, Zhao Liren understood what was going on.
