After the rebirth, I was picked up by the prince

After Qi Zizhen lay on the bed and rested comfortably for a long time, he realized that he forgot to pick up the child back to Guoshita.

This seems to be the...how many times?

He quickly got up from the bed, simply changed his clothes and headed towards the palace.

Every time he went to the court in the morning, he would have a sedan chair specially sent by Song Yaoxu, and he still had to walk by himself when he traveled more on weekdays.

Considering his uneasy conscience, Qi Zizhen decided to drop by the market to buy some sweets for the children.

In the evening, the capital city is still very lively, the streets are sprinkled with the warm yellow light from the lanterns, dimly covering the daily life of ordinary people.

Qi Zizhen went to the small shop where Song Yaoxu had bought candy before, and asked the shopkeeper to weigh a small bag of amber candy. On the way out, he accidentally saw a shop selling rice cakes.

He remembered that Xu Xiaoqi once mentioned that he liked to eat rice cakes sold in the capital market when he was chatting with Xu Xiaoqi in the National Teacher Tower.

It's just that their family's conditions are average, and there are many children. Usually, they don't buy a rice cake until the Chinese New Year, and several children share it.

Why don't you bring some more rice cakes to Xu Xiaoqi.

After Qi Zizhen made up his mind, he walked around the road and went to the opposite side to buy some steaming rice cakes, and then walked back from the road, preparing to go to the palace.

However, just as Qi Zizhen took a few steps, there was some commotion in front for unknown reasons, followed by a chaotic sound of horseshoes.

"Da da da--"

Qi Zizhen just walked to a place close to the middle, subconsciously stopped in place, watched a galloping horse coming straight towards him, and forgot to back up to avoid it in a crisis.

"Zizhen be careful!"

Suddenly there was a sound behind him, followed by a huge pulling force that pulled him back violently.

With a stagger, he managed to dodge the horse that was rushing straight, but accidentally bumped into the person who pulled him back out of inertia, and the paper packages in the hands of both fell to the ground.

He took a painful breath, rubbed his sore arm after the person behind him let go, and then saw the person leaning over to pick up the paper parcels on the ground, and handing one of them to him, asking worriedly. : "Are you okay? I almost ran into it just now, why don't you know how to hide?"

Qi Zizhen looked at the person in front of him, pursed his lips, and took the paper package: "The situation was too sudden, so I didn't react. Thank you, Brother Yuanbai."

After Lu Yuanbai seemed to confirm that he was really all right, he showed a slight smile, and his attitude was almost the same as before the restaurant talk: "That person must be in a hurry. Why did Zizhen come out to buy rice cakes at this time?"

Qi Zizhen doesn't have much affection for him now, but because of his status as a national teacher, he can't directly save face, and said with downcast eyes: "I'm too lazy to cook, so I came out to buy some food."

Hearing this, Lu Yuanbai seemed to have something else to say, but at this moment, another person came up behind him: "Did Xiao Lu meet someone he knows... Ah, so it's Young Master Qi."

The man seemed to be waiting for Lu Yuanbai, and when he saw something seemed to be going on, he came over to take a look, and happened to "inadvertently" notice Qi Zizhen.

Qi Zizhen raised his eyes to look at the person walking by, clenched his right hand slightly and then released it, and greeted calmly: "Master Guan Wang."

——The person who came was Guanwang Songping.

Song Ping still held his gentle and generous appearance when he was outside, smiled kindly, and asked him a few homely topics such as whether he had eaten or not, and how he was in health. It sounded like an ordinary elder caring about the younger generation.

Qi Zizhen and him hadn't broken their faces in the open, so they answered them one by one coldly, and after a while, they said goodbye and left on the grounds that they still had something to do.

But before he left, Song Ping stuffed him with some sweets, calling it caring for the younger generation.

Qi Zizhen took the paper bag from him, and then threw it away at the corner.

If the things Song Ping gave were edible, the sun would come out from the west.

Because of meeting Lu Yuanbai and Song Ping on the road, Qi Zizhen's originally good mood suddenly fell after the break, and he didn't have the heart to stay in the market, so he took a detour to the sparsely populated path and entered the palace directly from the secret passage.

The meeting place he agreed with Xu Xiaoqi was not far from the secret passage. When he passed by, Xu Xiaoqi was still squatting in the corner, holding the cloth bag containing the scrolls in his arms, curled up into a small ball, looking very pitiful.He immediately quickened his pace and walked over, calling softly: "Xiaoqi."

When Xu Xiaoqi heard the voice, she raised her head immediately, her eyes lit up, and she seemed to become joyful all of a sudden: "Brother Qi!"

While shouting, he tried to stand up, but his feet became numb from squatting for too long, and he almost fell straight backwards again.

"Be careful." Qi Zizhen quickly stepped forward to support him, patted the child on the head, and continued with some distress, "Didn't I say that if I accidentally forget it, you should go to Xiao Shi or Your Highness first? Why are you waiting here so stupidly?"

Xu Xiaoqi stood up with Qi Zizhen's support, and smiled embarrassedly when she heard the words: "Because I'm afraid that brother Qi will come just as soon as I leave, so I will trouble brother Qi to find me again."

He spoke well, and his eyes were full of trust in Qi Zizhen, which made Qi Zizhen's conscience more and more uneasy.

Why is this kid so obedient and sensible?

Qi Zizhen gently pinched his cheek, and said as if he hated iron for being weak, "Crying children have milk, don't always be so sensible."

But Xu Xiaoqi smiled shyly, and said in a low voice: "But obedient children also have rice cakes to eat. I can smell the fragrance in the paper parcel by Brother Qi."

Qi Zizhen sighed, rubbed his head, and handed him the cold rice cake in his hand: "I'm delayed on the road this time, next time I'll buy you something warm to eat."

"Okay, thank you, brother Qi." Xu Xiaoqi took the paper package, frowned and smiled sweetly.

Qi Zizhen really couldn't hold back, and squeezed his head again, then took the cloth bag in his hand, and led him to the direction of the harem: "It's almost time for dinner, let's go to His Highness first Have a meal and go back."

Xu Xiaoqi is almost used to the behavior of having dinner in the palace before returning to the National Master Tower every time he comes late, and after nodding, he obediently follows Qi Zizhen's side, eating rice cakes to cushion his stomach temporarily.

When Xu Xiaoqi finished finishing the small portions of rice cakes, they also arrived at the Hall of Mental Cultivation, just in time to see Song Shi here.

In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Song Yaoxu looked helplessly at Qi Zizhen who brought the child over again, "Why did Zizhen forget to pick up Xiaoqi again?"

Qi Zizhen coughed lightly: "That's not it, I'm a little busy."

Song Yaoxu walked up to him and tapped his head lightly, and smiled helplessly: "You. Fortunately, Xiao Qi doesn't like to run around, otherwise you will cry when the successor is gone."

Qi Zizhen accepts criticism and education obediently, but it is not certain whether he will commit the crime again next time.

Song Yaoxu didn't have any hope for his memory in this aspect, and after calling Song Shi over, he said to Xu Xiaoqi: "Don't go to the previous place to wait when school is over next time, just come to the Hall of Mental Cultivation with Xiao Shi. "

Xu was worried that he would be embarrassed, so Song Shi also added with a smile: "Brother Xiao Qi should play with Xiao Shi for a while longer!"

Xu Xiaoqi did not refuse, and smiled shyly: "Then bother Your Majesty and Xiao Shi."

"There's nothing to disturb or disturb!" Xiaoshi smiled brightly, pulling Xu Xiaoqi up to play with him for a while.

Qi Zizhen took advantage of the opportunity to give the amber candy he bought to the two children, and said casually: "Fortunately, it wasn't the amber candy that was dropped just now, the candy is still intact, you can share it and eat it, don't eat too much before dinner .”

Neither of the two children had much resistance to sweets, but they responded obediently, and then took the candy to the other side to play.

On the other hand, Song Yaoxu noticed something wrong in his words just now, and frowned slightly: "Did you accidentally fall somewhere?"

"Ah." Only then did Qi Zizhen realize that his casual sentence had revealed the little accident he hadn't planned to say, "No, I was almost hit by a horse, and then he was pulled away and bought for Xiaoqi. I accidentally dropped the rice cake."

He spoke calmly, but Song Yaoxu was terrified when he heard it.

According to Qi Zizhen, if someone hadn't pulled him away, the horse might have bumped into it.

Song Yaoxu rubbed him distressedly: "Remember to be more careful next time. The capital has access control, and there are often people driving fast horses who are in a hurry to go out in the evening. If you really bump into it by accident, you can't bear it."

"I know, I'll be more careful in the future." Qi Zizhen replied in a low voice, he was even more obedient than Xu Xiaoqi just now, and he didn't look cold and reserved in the usual way.

Song Yaoxu smiled and pinched his cheek lightly, taking advantage of his arrival in the palace, told him about Enke that he hadn't finished talking to him this morning.

Generally speaking, there are some signs, and with the note left by Emperor Hongchu, it can be roughly confirmed that Enke's opening of the subject was not based on the true will of Emperor Hongchu, and Enke's examination questions may also have serious discrepancies. regulation phenomenon.

Song Ping might never have imagined that Emperor Hongchu, who is usually submissive, had already reserved him, leaving much more loopholes in the case of Enke than in the case of the snow disaster, and he might be able to find it soon tangible evidence.

After the two of them briefly finished Enke's affairs, it was almost time for dinner, and the palace people brought in dinner one after another.

After Qi Zizhen finished eating and drinking with peace of mind in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, as it was getting late, he didn't stay any longer, and soon after eating and drinking enough, he went back to the National Teacher Tower with Xu Xiaoqi.

At that time, Ye Qi Zizhen roughly recorded the progress of Enke's affairs in his sorting out in the past few days, and read a few volumes of books to pass the time.

But when people sleep at night, they tend to think wildly. When Qi Zizhen thought about it, he accidentally recalled the things related to his life that he wanted to forget during the day. After tossing and turning for a long time, he finally fell asleep under the upset and woke up the next day Sometimes he looked troubled again.

Like him, Xu Xiaoqi also looked very tired in the morning, and fell asleep on the way to send him into the palace.

Qi Zizhen only thought that he had a good time with Song Shi yesterday and didn't sleep well at night, so he went back to the cage with him in the sedan chair and woke up the child by yawning when he arrived at the palace, watching him and waiting for him. After the confluence of Song's consciousness, he was ready to go to court with peace of mind.

Nothing new happened in the courtroom today, Qi Zizhen, who didn't sleep well, felt bored, and had to stand upright with his back straight, it was really tortured.

Song Yaoxu, who was on the dragon chair, took his situation into consideration, and when the officials had finished talking about all the irrelevant matters, they immediately announced their withdrawal from the court, and by the way, kept Qi Zizhen specially.

All the ministers below retreated obediently, only Song Ping seemed to pay attention to Qi Zizhen's direction.

Song Yaoxu, who was still sitting on the dragon chair, caught a glimpse of Song Ping's expression, narrowed his eyes slightly, and soon returned to his original state. After all the officials retreated, he took advantage of the opportunity to push back the palace servants, got up, walked to Qi Zizhen's side, and led him along the way. Go to the temple.

There were tables and chairs in the side hall, Song Yaoxu simply pushed him into the chair and sat down, raised his hand to pour him a cup of tea, and asked while passing it to his side, "Did you not sleep well last night?"

Qi Zizhen regained his thoughts a little bit, picked up the teacup and lowered his head halfway, and said, "I remembered something about the Qin family, and I couldn't sleep. It was really late."

Speaking of this, Song Yaoxu really found it hard to comfort him, after all, this kind of thing can only be digested by himself.

Qi Zizhen also understood this truth, let himself out of the previous emotions with a breath, drank half a cup of tea and put down the teacups, and talked about business: "The snow disaster can't be delayed for too long, I want to see you in private today As soon as I saw Master Yu, I intervened in the investigation of this matter on the sidelines."

Song Yaoxu didn't agree immediately when he heard the words, and after pondering for a while, he said: "Then you remember to be careful in everything. In this life, Song Ping has already taken Qi Yuan away, and we don't know when and how he will act. Don't let him Got caught by him."

Qi Zizhen nodded seriously, and when he was about to make a promise, the palace guards outside suddenly reported that a palace guard from the South Study Room had rushed over to see him.

The two looked at each other, and they could vaguely sense that something was wrong, and immediately got up and went out together.

As soon as the palace servants waiting outside saw them coming out, they hurriedly bowed and said in a panic, "Your Majesty, something happened to Young Master Xu, Young Master Xu!"

Qi Zizhen first reacted to who this "Mr. Xu" was, and after a while, he suddenly remembered that Xiaoqi's surname was Xu. He didn't even care about the etiquette in front of outsiders, so he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What happened to Xiaoqi?" Already?!"

In desperation, the palace servants did not notice his impoliteness, and reported truthfully: "My lord, Mr. Xu suddenly passed out during class this morning, and he was hot all over. Now he has been temporarily placed by Grand Tutor Zuo with the little one near the South Study Room. In the room."

hot all over...

Qi Zizhen clenched his hands, turned around and seemed to want to run to the South Study Room, but was stopped by Song Yaoxu just in time.

Song Yaoxu asked the palace staff again to confirm that the imperial physician had rushed to the South Study Room, and then ordered to drive to the South Study Room.

Qi Zizhen was very anxious along the way, but even though his mind was confused, he quickly calmed down and began to think about the reason for Xu Xiaoqi's illness.

Although Xu Xiaoqi appeared to be in a bad state of mind this morning, his body temperature was still normal at the time, and he hadn't caught a cold in recent days, so how could he suddenly have a high fever?
