His Royal Highness cannon fodder does not want to be a salted fish

"What's going on?" Tang Liyin asked.

The little eunuch behind him carried a paper lantern and followed Tang Liyin.

Tang Yun, who was in a fit of anger, became quieter after seeing the lamp, and stared straight at the lamp.

Tonight, the palace ladies and princes and princesses will go to the Qinglu Pond in the palace to pray for blessings. The main purpose is to wish the Holy Majesty peace and prosperity, and the country is safe and sound, and then to bless himself and his heirs to be safe and sound.

Presumably this palace lantern was used at that time. I didn't expect that Tang Yun, a half-grown child, would attach so much importance to such a blessing.

When several palace people saw that the crown prince was coming, they hurriedly saluted.There was still a look of fear on his face.

"Brother Emperor, these palace people have lost my villain! Ah Yun wants to execute them." Tang Yun came over and pulled Tang Liyin's sleeve, pointed at the court ladies kneeling on the ground, and complained angrily.

Tang Liyin was stunned for a moment, listening to the other party's childish voice saying that they would all be executed, it seemed strange to hear it.

For Tang Yun, this is just a simple sentence, but it is not the case for others, one sentence is enough to determine their life and death.

He thought about it for a while, and planned to teach the other party well in the future, and words like execution should not be easily put on the lips.

Tang Liyin glanced at the fearful maid at the side, and said, "What is a villain?"

"It was left by my mother for Ah Yun. I used to use it to coax Ah Yun to sleep every night, but it suddenly disappeared today."

Tang Yun looked at the court ladies and eunuchs who were kneeling together, gritted his teeth and said, "It must have been stolen by them."

Tang Liyin had vaguely heard that Tang Yun lost her mother when she was young, and was later raised by Concubine Li's side, and the mother Tang Yun mentioned should not be that Concubine Li, but the biological mother who died early.

Every time he saw Tang Yun, he saw that the other party took the villain close to his body for safekeeping. Presumably this thing had a special place in Tang Yun's heart.

Seeing Tang Yun tugging at his sleeves, Tang Liyin felt a little helpless, court ladies and eunuchs would never steal such little things as dolls.

Suddenly Tang Liyin spotted a court lady kneeling on the ground, her complexion turned slightly pale, and she looked guilty.

With a move in his heart, he looked at Tang Yun and asked softly, "Tell Brother Da Huang, is there anything special about the villain? Brother Da Huang will help you find it."

Tang Yun rolled his eyeballs, and said: "Ah Yun remembers, the villain is very fragrant."

When Tang Liyin heard this, he realized that he had indeed smelled a faint fragrance the moment he entered the door.

Since Tang Yun wears it for a long time, he must also be contaminated with fragrance, and by the same token, the person who took it will inevitably have this smell on him.

Maybe other people can't smell this kind of smell, but Tang Liyin somehow feels that he can.

Thinking of this, he looked at the court ladies kneeling on the ground, wondering if it was because his sense of smell was too sensitive, he always felt that the smell was stuffy and uncomfortable.

Tang Liyin said in a deep voice: "If someone among you really stole the Fifth Prince's belongings, you'd better hand them over now, otherwise..."

Having said that, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes lingered for a moment between the few people, as if he had already made a plan in his heart.

Obviously the childishness on his face was still there, when he slightly raised his head and looked down at the crowd, there was an unspeakable coldness and dignity in his eyes, which made people suffocate.

"Bring her here."

Tang Liyin ordered a court lady without hesitation, and several eunuchs around him stepped forward, left and right, and held down that court lady.

When the other party saw Tang Liyin's actions, his face turned pale, and he said loudly: "Your Highness, no matter how courageous this servant is, I will not dare to touch the things of His Highness the Fifth Prince!"

"Then it seems that you are more courageous than you think." Tang Liyin was unmoved.

However, he was still a little strange. The court lady didn't seem to have strong psychological quality. From the faint guilty conscience before, it could be seen that if there were no other factors involved, she must not have the guts.

He really didn't understand the motive of the palace lady doing this, he couldn't think of it left and right, so he simply didn't think about it.

"Go search her residence and see if the things are still there." After Tang Liyin finished speaking, several eunuchs came out in response.

The scent on the other party was stronger than that of the others, and he was probably the last person to touch the thing. If the thing was really taken away by someone, this court lady was the most suspicious.

Not long after, the eunuchs who went to search the residence returned their orders on their knees with a small cloth figure in their hands.

Tang Yun held the villain in his hand, and he could see that half of the villain's body had been burned off, and the spices and cotton wool inside had leaked out.

By now, the court lady knew that it was useless to quibble, so she lay powerlessly on the ground.

No matter how you look at it, the behavior of a little court lady stealing the prince's belongings and burning them is a bit strange. I am afraid that this court lady will not escape to death in the end.

Tang Yun grabbed the villain, his eyes turned red all of a sudden, and big teardrops rolled in his eyes, both sad and angry.

It was useless for Tang Liyin to comfort her. She delivered the things and planned to leave. As soon as she went out, she saw the eldest princess Tang Changxi walking towards her.

The eldest princess was wearing a peach red embroidered skirt, her whole face was bright and lovely, delicate and charming, she was one or two years older than Tang Liyin.

"You... why is Your Highness the Crown Prince here?" Tang Changxi frowned, and his tone was very impatient. Then he saw Tang Yun wiping tears inside, and asked sharply, "You take the fifth brother?" What's wrong?"

Tang Liyin was puzzled, what did he do with Tang Yun.

"If you really want to know, don't the eldest princess go in and have a look?" Tang Liyin said lightly.

Tang Changxi is the daughter of Concubine Li, and she basically grew up with Tang Yun, so there is nothing wrong with caring about her younger brother.But Tang Liyin knew that Tang Changxi didn't like him as the prince from the bottom of his heart.

"you!"

Tang Changxi glared at him, and snorted coldly: "This small place, His Royal Highness, is really frustrating to us. His Royal Highness is a blessed person. Our small place cannot accommodate His Highness, the big Buddha!"

Tang Liyin didn't expect that the eldest princess hated her to such an extent. Seeing the usual behavior of the people around her, there must have been many such things in the past.

Tang Changxi was notoriously savage and self-willed, unreasonable, and everyone in the palace knew about it.

The little eunuch next to him seemed to be unable to stand it any longer, and said: "Your Highness, there is a difference between concubine and concubine, if it spreads, it will be the same to you, Your Highness..."

"Where is this princess going to teach you a lesson?" Tang Changxi said sharply.

With a snap, the eldest princess picked up the long whip around her waist and was about to whip the little eunuch, but someone caught the whip halfway.

Tang Liyin endured the pain from the palm of his hand, and gave Tang Changxi a cold look.Tang Changxi's heart was tightened by this look, and his originally chaotic brain and thinking suddenly became clear for a moment.

The little eunuch was very moved when he saw that His Highness the Crown Prince took the initiative to catch the whip.

If it wasn't for the fear that His Highness the Crown Prince would hate him, he might have wanted to hug His Highness the Crown Prince's thigh and say that he would be a cow and a horse for the rest of his life.

"Tang Changxi, if there is a next time, I won't be kind so easily." Tang Liyin loosened the whip in his hand and threw it at the opponent's feet.

Tang Changxi raised her brows upside down, stepped forward to approach Tang Liyin, and said in a low voice, "Why don't you be kind easily? The empress is a woman of unknown background, with no power or power behind her, and this princess's mother clan is from the Yi family." The number one family in the country, the existence that the former emperor relied on..."

Tang Liyin sneered, he knew where Tang Changxi's hostility towards him came from.

I'm afraid that without him, there would be no current empress, her mother Concubine Li is the empress, and his mother just took Li Concubine's position by virtue of favor.

"The first family? I heard that the emperor wants to reform the system of selecting officials. Will the family still be the family it used to be?"

Tang Liyin didn't want to stare at the other party here anymore, and directly told the news she heard, whether it was true or not, it would be best if it could scare Tang Changxi.

Sure enough, Tang Changxi's complexion changed when he heard this, and he was a little surprised, as if he didn't believe the truth of this matter.

However, since Tang Changxi stayed in the inner courtyard of the deep palace all year round, it was difficult for him to know the events of the previous dynasty, so he lost his confidence for a while.

Tang Liyin walked around the other party directly, and when he passed by, he smelled that strange fragrance from Tang Changxi's body.

It would not be surprising if Tang Changxi, as the elder sister, often picked up the fragrance from walking with the younger brother.

At night, the concubines and princes all went to the Qinglu Pond to light the lanterns.There is an ornamental pool in the palace, and Qinglu Pool is the largest one.

The moonlight like hoarfrost falls on the cool water of the pool, rippling with sparkling waves, and occasionally a fish can be seen jumping out of the water and falling into the pool again, splashing a splash of water.

Tang Liyin discovered that the so-called praying lanterns were sky lanterns similar to Kongming lanterns, so why did Tang Yun ask him to make water lanterns?

The little eunuch at the side said cleverly: "Your Highness the Crown Prince does not know that the birth mother of the Fifth Prince was drowned."

Tang Liyin was thoughtful.

Ever since Tang Liyin stepped in for him just now, the little eunuch has become more considerate in his work.

Tang Liyin always took the other party with him because the other party came to Yufeng Palace not long ago, and he hadn't seen His Highness the Crown Prince a few times, so naturally he didn't know each other well.

But in the eyes of the little eunuch Yuan Fu, he didn't know that he was so ordinary, so he fell into the eyes of His Highness the Crown Prince. He would not dare to neglect the honor of working in front of His Highness the Crown Prince.

Looking at the sky lantern slowly rising in the night, Tang Liyin became interested and asked the little eunuch Yuan Fu to fetch the lantern.

I hesitated a little while starting to write, and finally wrote Wei Huaimian's name.

Master Wei is about to leave for the border.

Then I hope Master Wei can be invincible and invincible.

When Tang Zheng came over, he saw Tang Liyin put the lamp towards the sky, then raised his eyes to stare, the rising lights were reflected in his eyes, like a galaxy melting in a thick ink.

He suppressed the strange feeling rising in his heart, and only had time to clearly see a character Wei on the lamp.

The prince brother is praying for Lord Wei?

I don't know why, but I just feel a little unhappy.

"Fourth brother? Have you finished lighting the lamp?" Tang Liyin saw him only then.

Tang Zheng nodded.

Tang Liyin smiled, "I saw you were so serious just now, so I don't want to disturb you, what are you praying for?"

"It's still the same as in previous years. I wish my father good health and the country's peace and prosperity." Tang Zheng said casually.

In fact, the lamps he put in the past did not write anything.

But this year, he also wrote a person's name.
