Invite the wolf into the room

From Qingzhe's understanding of Xiao Muliu, that little prince will definitely treat Han Chao kindly, instead of driving him as a servant.

"Yeah, I know..."

After clinking glasses with Ling Qingzhe, Han Chao took a deep breath, the fatigue on his face finally faded, and his smile became more energetic.

"Drinking like this is too hurtful. I'll ask them to prepare some side dishes, so that we can have a good drink."

Seeing this, Ling Qingzhe patted Han Chao's arm, and then ordered Ling Yuan, who was waiting outside the house, to prepare food and drinks. The clever little girl had already prepared it after Han Chao's arrival. The small table was full, Ling Qingzhe glanced at her appreciatively, Ling Yuan smiled obediently and stepped back.

"I thought it would be like that all my life, but now it suddenly changes, and I don't know what to do."

Picking up the small dishes Ling Qingzhe put in his bowl and eating them, Han Chao looked at the cup in his hand in a daze. He knew that he would probably spend the rest of his life under the surveillance of the secret agents of Prince Rui's Palace, but as long as he didn't leak Prince Rui's Palace If you take care of Lord Kang with all your heart, you will be safe for the rest of your life... and you will be much more free.

"I think Lord Kang really treats you as a friend. You might as well let go. Don't always reject people thousands of miles away because of their superiority and inferiority. Trying to make him sad. He just wants to live a more comfortable life." , if you really respect him, you should follow his mind to make him happy, this is good for both of you, I believe you understand what I mean."

Putting vegetables for Han Chao to let him eat more, Ling Qingzhe persuaded him softly, he actually pitied Xiao Muliu, he was obviously one of the most honorable people in this country, but his weak body couldn't even handle emotions such as joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness. I can't afford it, and there is no one around me who can talk properly. If Han Chao gets closer to him and gets his protection, it will be good for both of them.

"I understand, don't talk about me, it's you... He's gone, how are you?"

Serving Ling Qingzhe with wine, Han Chao's eyes fell softly on Ling Qingzhe's face, with some indistinct emotions flowing.

Han Chao didn't know about Ling Qingzhe's plan, he only knew from Prince Rui's residence that An Chen was one of the important people on this trip, so he knew about An Chen's departure, but he didn't know what the relationship between the two was. That's why I asked this question.

"I'm okay, I've considered everything that needs to be considered, and arranged everything that needs to be arranged. He promised me that I will put my own life first and come back safely. I believe in his strength."

Speaking of An Chen, Ling Qingzhe couldn't help showing a heartwarming smile on his face. Although he seemed to be complaining, only he and Xue Jingyang knew how much he had put into An Chen.

"That's good... come on, let's drink!"

Listening to Ling Qingzhe's words full of happiness, the ripples in Han Chao's heart returned to calm before he fainted. He thought to himself that he really drank too much, otherwise why would he be thinking wildly, thinking that he would be able to have a happy life after leaving Prince Rui's mansion? Miss you?

... The past is the past, and bringing it up will only make everyone sad, so why bother?

Concentrating his mind and not thinking too much, Han Chao took the initiative to strike a wine fist with Ling Qingzhe. The loser was punished for telling jokes and singing and dancing swords. After the table was cleared, the two of them lay side by side on the couch and chatted, and they didn't fall into a deep sleep until the wine was strong.

When Han Chao woke up, it was already sunset. He sat up and looked at Ling Qingzhe's sleeping face for a long time, then walked out of the room lightly. Once outside, the cool air refreshed Han Chao's mind. He felt that the smell of alcohol all over his body was terrible, but Ling Yuan, who had been waiting outside, told him that he had prepared hot water and clothes, and Han Chao happily followed her to the next room to change and wash.

Fearing that people would think it was not good for An Chen to stay overnight in the Ling Mansion just after An Chen left, Han Chao asked Ling Yuan to tell him after Ling Qingzhe woke up, and he left first, but Han Chao was at a loss when he left the gate, it was no longer him at Prince Rui's Mansion It's time to go, don't you want to sleep in an inn tonight?

While Han Chao was hesitating, a young man in Tsing Yi who seemed to be standing by the side of the road came over and greeted him respectfully, saying that Kang Wangrang was waiting here. He went back together, and the mansion had prepared everything for him. If he still had something to do, he didn't have to force him, he could go back anytime. Together they went to Kang Wangfu.

In Prince Kang's mansion, Xiao Muliu, who was already resting on the bed, heard the report from the servants, and regardless of the thinness of his clothes, he got up and asked them to call Han Chao in, and a hint of joy finally appeared on his originally calm face.

Originally, because the eunuch serving him was quite satisfactory, he didn't notice that his hands and feet were not clean, or that he didn't have the energy to take care of him. He dared to move, and was found by the second brother's people after he got out of the market, so he directly ordered people to drag him down and beat him to death in front of the servants. He didn't eat much for two days, and he didn't expect the second brother to love him so much, so he agreed to send Han Chao over, Xiao Muliu was really happy.

"My subordinates see the lord."

Under the instructions of his servants, Han Chao walked into the house alone, and seeing Xiao Muliu sitting at the table in his middle coat waiting for him, he walked up to him and knelt down in front of him.

"Don't, don't kneel to me, you don't have to kneel to me in the future."

Xiao Muliu hurriedly wanted to help Han Chao up, but he stretched out his hand halfway, but stopped. Before, he was only happy because he was coming, but now he remembered that he wanted to be loyal to his second brother so much. Now Would he be unhappy if he asked him to come?

"The lord is already the lord of the subordinates, so the subordinates should kneel...but if the lord doesn't like it, then the subordinates just don't kneel in the future."

He raised his head because of Xiao Muliu's slightly nervous voice, Han Chao saw that he seemed a little lost because of his own words, hesitated for a while and changed to a more friendly tone, just like what Ling Qingzhe said, if he really wanted to Prince Rui is loyal, so he should take good care of Prince Kang instead of making him unhappy.

"Well, then when there are no outsiders, you can also call yourself me."

Seeing that Han Chao's tone relaxed, Xiao Muliu's mood picked up again, and he gave another order with some anticipation, or it could be said to be a request.

"Yes."

Han Chao thought about it and agreed. He had already made up his mind, and he would take good care of the scale of getting along with Xiao Muliu. Naturally, he would not damage the majesty of the prince in front of outsiders. In private...just follow him as much as possible. .

"I asked them to rearrange the outer room, and you can see if it suits you."

Xiao Muliu picked up Han Chao and was about to take him outside. Because of his shallow sleep, he was afraid that the eunuch serving outside would make noise that would affect him, so he specially separated a complete room for the chief steward. Now The eunuch was gone, so Xiao Muliu ordered someone to clean and arrange the outer room for Han Chao to use.

According to the rules, the rooms around his house are all for the concubine, and he didn't want Han Chao to live far away, so he had to put him in the outer room of his house. In fact, Xiao Muliu originally thought that the inner room of his house It's better, but those servants have to say that it's the attendant's room and they can't live in it...

"My lord loves you so much, beware of the cold weather."

Seeing Xiao Muliu's fat jade-like slender fingers on his arm, Han Chao retracted his hand slightly to avoid it, then took the cotton nightgown on the shelf and put it on Xiao Muliu's shoulders, Only then did Xu Xu help him walk outside.

The newly tidied outer room is very elegant and tidy, making Han Chao feel comfortable at first sight, but after a closer look, he finds that the furnishings in the room look simple, but most of them are valuable treasures. The person who arranged the arrangement was careful. From the corner of the eye, he glanced at Kang Wang who was looking at him with implicit expectation. Han Chao smiled and returned his sincere thanks.

"It's fine if you like it. By the way, I heard that Qingzhe will be on duty tomorrow. I'll see if I can borrow him from my elder brother. Let's hold a banquet in the mansion. One is to welcome you, and the other is to celebrate his recovery from injury." .”

Seeing that Han Chao was satisfied with the room, Xiao Muliu smiled even wider, and Ling Qingzhe's smile suddenly appeared in his mind, Xiao Muliu wanted to take this opportunity to invite him to celebrate together.

Speaking of which, since Ling Qingzhe was injured, they didn't have much chance to meet each other, let alone get along like they did in the palace before. Xiao Muliu's bad mood recently is also because of this, and now that Han Chao has entered his mansion, Ling Qingzhe has also recovered from his injury. , he just wanted to spend more time with these two friends he identified.

"it is good……"

Seeing the look on Xiao Muliu's face when he mentioned Ling Qingzhe, Han Chao lost his mind for a moment, but then he came to his senses, and still dealt with it as if nothing had happened, but he felt a little strange in his heart. Master himself found out if he cared about Ling Qingzhe differently...

In fact, Han Chao was deluded by the authorities, and he didn't notice that when Xiao Muliu mentioned Han Chao, he also had this kind of special concern.

The author has something to say: That...flash!

princess arrives

Compared with Prince Rui's Mansion with strict rules, the atmosphere of Prince Kang's Mansion is more undisciplined than expected by the Han Dynasty. It is probably because the mansion's communication with the outside world is blocked, and there is no strict master to manage the house, so the old people in the mansion are used to it. He is lazy, pretends to be respectful in front of Kang Wang, but secretly eats, steals, and gambles.
