set of flowers

Hua Qianyu, who received the invitation, came to Mingfeng Building under the leadership of 33.Before entering the wing room, Le Yang and 33 stayed outside the wing room knowingly, waiting for orders.

An Mingjing, who was sitting at the table waiting for a long time, heard someone coming, turned his eyes to the door, and the first thing he said when he saw him was: "What happened?"

"What are you asking?" Someone approached.

"I heard that you and An Mingxi went out of the palace together that day."

Hua Qianyu sat across from him, smiled and said, "Brother just came to see me at this time, but I'm really calm."

"I'm waiting for you to find me."

"I'm also waiting for you to find me."

"when?"

"At the time of the hair tie ceremony, as my cousin, it's justified."

"Why do you want to avoid suspicion?"

Hua Qianyu will tell the whole story.

"I'm afraid that if I used force in public that day, the matter would reach His Majesty's ears." Hua Qianyu said while pouring tea for An Mingjing and pouring a cup for himself.

"So Father knows that you know martial arts... It seems that Father has a lot of eyes and ears."

"If His Majesty sent me away because he was afraid of the Hua family, then it would not be wise to meet you after the interview."

"Oh," An Mingjing sneered, "if this bothers him, then he really doesn't have any father-son relationship with me."

Hua Qianyu was silent.He doesn't know much about the current Holy Majesty.

"Why An Mingxi?"

Hua Qianyu shook his head: "I can't figure it out either."

An Mingjing raised his right index finger, and tapped his fingertips on the table: "Perhaps it's not to weaken the Hua Family by letting you accompany. The family will do their utmost to protect his safety."

Hua Qianyu sounded reasonable, but—"Does Your Majesty really love the Fourth Prince so much?" This was quite different from what he had heard.

"...Now it seems that it is indeed."

Hua Qianyu drank half a cup of tea, and after thinking about it, said: "The prince once said that the fourth prince will no longer be taught by his master when he is 11 years old. From this point of view, His Majesty should have no intention of cultivating him."

As a member of the non-royal family, he can only enter the university at the age of 11, so he just missed An Mingxi who is one year older than him.

An Mingjing drank the tea in one gulp, put down the teacup, and said angrily, "Who can understand Father's thoughts?"

Hua Qianyu filled An Mingjing's teacup: "Isn't sending the fourth prince south to keep him away from the battle for the crown prince? His Majesty's series of actions are hints that he has no intention of letting the fourth prince succeed the throne."

"Oh, I'm afraid that he is doing this on the surface, but he is thinking of another matter in his heart."

An Mingjing must know His Majesty better than him - Hua Qianyu is not good to say anything, but he also does not want An Mingjing's grudge against An Mingxi to worsen, so he changed the subject: "Why does the prince hate the fourth prince? Isn't the eldest prince more threatening?"

"Why do you hate..."

An Mingjing turned his gaze out of the window. The sun was bright today. The moment he closed his eyes, what he saw was a dazzling white, and it seemed that he could hear a child's squeamish "Father Emperor"...he remembered that It was also sunny in the morning.

"I forgot," he turned to Hua Qianyu and said, "it doesn't matter."

Hua Qianyu sighed: "Even if you are a stranger, you shouldn't punch lightly, let alone he is your brother."

"Oh?" An Mingjing's eyes darkened, "It sounds like you have gotten closer to him a lot."

"If I say yes," Hua Qianyu paused, "would the crown prince think that I was in collusion with him?"

"So I'm so stingy in your heart."

He smiled but didn't respond.

An Mingjing sighed: "If you feel sorry for him, I will not bully him in the future."

……

It was approaching noon, the sky was very hot, and the scorching sun made Luo Jing feel like a midsummer today. In such weather, there were quite a few pedestrians on the street.

Hua Qianyu bought two oil-paper umbrellas from a small stall, handed one to Le Yang, and opened the one left in his hand to cover himself and An Mingjing.

Le Yang opened the umbrella and pulled 33 to shade him, and 33 was flattered.

"It's still a long way to go, brother really doesn't want to take a carriage?" Hua Qianyu asked.

"The carriage is cramped and stuffy."

"Where is it not hot under the sun?" He thought it would be cooler in the carriage.

An Mingjing smiled and shook his head.

It is rare for him to go out, and the normal life of the ordinary people is also a good scenery for him-it is impossible to become a part of the life of ordinary people as it is now.

The old beggar was sitting under the shade of the eaves with a bowl and walking stick; the vegetable vendor was sweating and waiting for the customers who could buy the last few cabbages; Fanning the wind on the bench outside the museum; a young man came over with a dangling empty wine jug...

One person, one thing, and one thing are all "popularity" that cannot be felt in the palace.The coldness of the imperial palace, even the scorching sun can't let it go.

Just as An Mingjing was staring at the father and daughter walking hand in hand in a daze, a child in ragged clothes bumped into him face to face, said "I'm sorry" and got sideways with him.

"Le Yang." Hua Qianyu called out.

"Yes!" Le Yang stuffed the umbrella in his hand to 33, turned around and quickly ran towards the child.The child who felt someone was chasing him ran up in a panic, but within two steps, Le Yang grabbed him by the collar and carried him to An Mingjing.

"What are you doing!" the child struggled.

Seeing this, An Mingjing touched his waist, and sure enough, he lost his purse.

"Hand it over." An Mingjing said coldly.

The child trembled when he heard the sound, Le Yang let go, and the child was unsteady and knelt directly on the ground.

He gritted his teeth and said confidently: "You are so rich! Can't you share it with us!"

"Hand it over." An Mingjing repeated.

Hua Qianyu quietly held an umbrella for An Mingjing, showing no intention of changing his approach.

The child held his stomach and remained motionless—the hiding place of the purse was obvious.

"Poverty is not the reason why you can steal." An Mingjing lowered his head and said condescendingly.

The child raised his head stubbornly: "You don't need this little money!" There were tears in his red eyes.

"What if I'm short? What if I need this money to see a doctor?"

"Daddy needs money to see a doctor!" the child yelled, and Dou Da's tears jumped out, "You don't need money at all!"

An Mingjing remained unmoved: "It's not up to you whether there is a lack or not—the state owns the state law. If everyone steals money like you do, will there be less burning, killing, and looting in this country?"

"But……"

"Nothing justifies the bad things you did - hand over your money!"

The child couldn't speak anymore, and handed over the money with trembling hands, tears streaming down his already ashen face.

An Mingjing took the money bag, put it away, and roughly lifted the child from his kneeling position——

"If you were not young, you would have been sent to the dungeon by now."

The child lowered his head and bit his lower lip, clutching the hem of his clothes with both hands.

"Take me to your father's place."

The child raised his head in surprise: "You...are a doctor?"

"No—but I can take him to the doctor."

……

After all the tossing, it was dark.By the time Hua Qianyu and Le Yang returned to the Prime Minister's mansion after having dinner in the teahouse, it was already Xu time.

Not long after Le Yang entered the mansion, he saw Le Liyou walking towards him, and also noticed the abnormal redness on his face and neck.Le Yang hurriedly ran to ask what happened.After knowing the reason, Hua Qianyu smiled, pushed Le Yang who angrily scolded Le Liyou for being stupid, and let him give medicine to others.

Hua Qianyu returned to the other courtyard alone, and before stepping over the landscape wall, he heard the familiar opera.He stepped forward cautiously, stepped over the moon hole, and saw under the moonlit night, a beautiful woman with her hands turned up, her face covered with long sleeves, her waist swaying like a willow.He turned his face away, lowered his eyes, and sang in a mournful voice: "Sheng'er, it's chilling tonight..."

Under the moonlight, the man's waterfall-like black hair shone with the luster of obsidian.The breeze blows, rolling up a few strands of filament.

Hua Qianyu was fascinated for a moment.

"I'm full of lovesickness in my dream, but I can't see the lovesicker when I wake up from the dream. My heart and soul are broken!"

The man took two steps back in mourning and lowered his head.

"Sheng'er, when will you marry me..."

Hua Qianyu came back to his senses when he heard the sound, and suddenly thought of playing tricks.He approached quietly, and when he was only one step away from that person, he said: "I will marry you!"

Sure enough, An Mingxi was startled and trembled all over.The corners of Hua Qianyu's mouth just raised when he saw the other party's eyes were stained red with tears streaming down his face.

He immediately panicked, quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe his tears, and asked, "What's wrong?"

The appearance of the beauty crying in front of him was so pitiful that he couldn't help but relax his movements.

Silk silk caressed under the left eye, An Mingxi couldn't help closing his left eye.He looked up at Hua Qianyu, then lowered his head again, his voice still trembling: "No...the wind is too strong."

At this time, the wind is better than nothing.

Naturally, Hua Qianyu would not expose him, and just smiled and said: "Brother Xi sings really well, would you like to sing another song for Qianyu?"

An Mingxi patted his hand away: "I've lost my interest."

Hua Qianyu put away the handkerchief: "So—how about five days from now?"

"Five days?"

"It's Yu's 15th birthday."

After An Mingxi was silent, he responded: "I won't attend your hair tie ceremony." There are too many people he doesn't want to meet.

Even though he is now on good terms with the young master of the Hua family, he still rejects the Hua family.

Hua Qianyu shook his head: "After the ceremony, how about my brother singing for me again? Just for me."

An Mingxi remained silent.

"The right is a congratulatory gift."

"Okay." After An Mingxi responded, he turned around and walked quickly back to the dormitory without waiting for Hua Qianyu to respond.

"Where's Ah Jiu?" Hua Qianyu followed up and asked.

"Go back to the palace to fetch things for me."

"What to take?"

"Playbooks and clothes."

"Then there are only two of us in the other courtyard today."

"Ah."

"That……"

With a "touch", Hua Qianyu was blocked by the wooden door.

Hua Qianyu was speechless for a moment, and after a while he asked, "Brother?"

"Sleeping." An Mingxi replied.But by candlelight, one could see that the people inside were leaning against the wooden door.

"That... what a dream." Hua Qianyu had no choice but to take a step back and walk towards her bedroom.He was puzzled—angry?Why?His tone didn't sound like he was angry...why?

——Because he was afraid that someone would push the door and enter, An Mingxi, who leaned against the door with his back, raised his hand and slid his lower eye socket, and his fingertips were wet——

was seen...

An Mingxi looked at the raised hand in a daze.

At least this time, no one laughed at him as a sissy.
