Man Xilan

Prince, why do the living conditions of the two princes differ so greatly~"

Su Xuan sent someone to investigate in the college for two days, and questioned the students who were in the classroom that day one by one several times, about every detail, and only asked some timid students with pale faces and covered in cold sweat.

On the third day, the imperial decree that Su Xuan dealt with came down.

Su Yu was punished by copying the etiquette in the palace three times, Su Qizhi copied it twice, and the students watching the theater next to him copied it once, and Liu Lan was given ten boards.

"Father," Su Qizhi stood in front of Su Xuan's desk, raised his head and stared at Su Xuan: "Why is Liu Lan the only one who hit him so hard? It's obviously the Second Emperor who provoked him, and Qi Zhi who beat him."

Su Xuan pushed those memorials in front of Su Qizhi: "These are the memorials submitted by the ministers. Let the emperor handle this matter properly. If you don't give an explanation, how can this matter be passed?"

"Then why do you want to shift the responsibility to Liu Lan?"

"Don't push it to him, but also push it to Yuzhi and Qizhi? You have to give an explanation to the ministers. Liu Lan is the son of a businessman. It is lucky to be able to enter the academy. How can he speak against the second prince? Just based on this One point, hitting him ten times is not wronging him."

"But that day, the emperor obviously likes his appearance..."

Su Xuan laughed out loud after hearing this: "After learning the art of the emperor for so long, why is Qizhi still so naive? Father is the emperor. Could it be that whoever I like on the surface is really like someone?"

Su Qizhi looked at Su Xuan and felt speechless for the first time.

Su Xuan bent over and hugged Su Qizhi: "Qizhi, you have a pure mind, you will pour out your heart and soul for what you like, and you don't even want to watch it if you don't like it. When you ascend the throne in the future, countless people will be counting on you and watching you , Acting completely according to your temper will definitely make the government and the people restless, and if it is serious, it may shake the foundation of our Qingguo. Listen to your father, you should change your temper."

"The national teacher also said that Qizhi should change his temper~" Su Qizhi hugged Su Xuan's neck, remembering Li Luowei sitting on the chair without any image, stuffing snacks into his mouth, and said to himself: "Morning I said that your bad temper will cause trouble sooner or later, and now it has come true, seeing the Third Prince lying there with a pale face after being beaten, I said Xiao Qiqi, you should change your temper."

"The national teacher said it well~~" Su Xuan laughed.

"Father," Su Qizhi raised his head and looked into Su Xuan's eyes, so that only the other's figure was reflected in each other's eyes, "Actually, Qizhi's temper is not bad~" It's because others provoke him loose the temper.

"Isn't that bad? I slapped my brother on the face~-"

"Because the second brother said...he said..." He said that my father would abandon me one day, so how can I endure it?A casual angry remark revealed the deepest fear in Su Qizhi's heart.

Such words, but could not be said, sighed, Su Qizhi said sullenly: "Father, Qizhi is going to see Liu Lan."

Before Liu Jiyun led his family to move to the capital, he took advantage of the opportunity of coming to the capital to do business, and led his subordinates to look at several real estate properties in the capital. It is all dilapidated, but the foundation is still there, and the inside of the house can be considered magnificent.

But Liu Jiyun was very picky, this house was too small, that one was in a bad location, and none of those houses took his fancy. In the end, Liu Jiyun waved his hand, ran to the suburbs of the capital, bought a hill and connected A piece of land on the mountain, the current Liu Mansion was built according to the mountain.

Su Qizhi only brought a few guards, followed the old housekeeper of the Liu Mansion, walked in the Liu Mansion, saw the pavilions, towers and pavilions everywhere in the Liu Mansion, the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers, there were so many scenes that even Su Qizhi, who was used to the palace architecture, couldn't help it Praise, this Qingguo's wealth is divided into Liu, and the financial resources of the Liu family are astonishing.

Liu Lan's residence is on the west side of Liu's mansion, in an independent courtyard. The walls of the courtyard are covered with unknown vines, and there are colorful flowers blooming on it, lively and splendid.

The old housekeeper stopped at the entrance of the courtyard, and said with a smile: "People in the young master's courtyard are not allowed to enter casually, the old man just waits at the door."

Su Qizhi nodded, indicating that the guards who followed him also stopped at the gate of the courtyard, and walked in by himself.

As soon as they entered the garden, a strange fragrance rushed towards them. The two maids had been waiting at the door for a long time. After seeing Su Qi, they went forward to salute and led Su Qizhi to Liu Lan's house.

Su Qizhi looked around and found that the courtyard was extremely spacious, with pavilions and an independent and exquisite bookstore. The plaque on the bookstore had three big characters Qinglan Pavilion written on it. There was actually a sparkling lake in the courtyard. There are a few lotus leaves scattered on the surface of the lake, which is very casual and leisurely. There are countless exotic flowers and herbs planted in the open space in the courtyard, which is the origin of the strange fragrance.Unlike other courtyards where the flowers and plants are trimmed very neatly, the flowers and plants in this yard seem to be ignored if someone sprinkled a handful of seeds. The flowers and plants are all growing wantonly and blooming. You squeeze me and I hug you Colorful, unexpected style.

Liu Lan's house is by the lake, close to the study building. There are two rows of tall houses. There are several birdcages hanging under the corridor. Inside are a few unidentifiable birds chirping. Two maids stand at the door. After saluting, he opened the bead curtain and signaled Su Qizhi to go in by himself.

"The Liu family is quite well behaved." Su Qizhi secretly thought, and then went in by himself.

When I went in, I found that the first row of rooms was completely open in the middle. There was a desk inside, with pens, ink and a few books casually placed on it, a soft couch by the window, and some landscape paintings of celebrities hanging on the wall. Elegant, the whole house is spacious but not empty. In summer, with the windows on both sides open, it must be very cool.

Liu Lan's bedroom is actually in the second row of rooms. Under the second row of houses, there is also a spacious corridor. Several vines are lying on the railing of the corridor intermittently. In the middle of the two rows of houses, there is actually a small river passing through. Su Qi Zhi Zhi walked on the small bridge connecting the front and back, watching the gurgling river flowing under the bridge, and the river water was occasionally mixed with falling petals elsewhere.Taking a deep breath, Su Qizhi felt that this place was extremely elegant.

Gently knocked on the door, Liu Lan's lazy voice came from inside: "Please come in."

Su Qizhi pushed open the door and saw that Liu Lan was alone in the room. At this time, he was lying on the bed with a soft pillow on his chest. The thin quilt on his body only covered half of his back, and he was still clutching a book. Book.

Seeing Su Qizhi coming in, Liu Lan looked very happy and said with a smile, "Yeah, you're here."

Su Qizhi nodded: "Yes, here we come.

Su Qizhi picked a chair by the bed and sat down, looked at Liu Lan's complexion, and said cautiously, "Is your injury better?"

"It's okay, it's okay."

"I brought you some ointment." Su Qizhi took out a box of green jasper ointment from his bosom, and handed it to Liu Lan. "This ointment works very well, just apply it two or three times."

Liu Lan took the box, played with it for a while, and said with a smile, "I'll trouble the fourth prince to help you prescribe the medicine."

Su Qizhi looked at Liu Lan with some embarrassment, hit the board, and the injury was in that place...

Liu Lan could see what Su Qizhi was thinking, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, it hurt your leg."

When Su Xuan issued the imperial edict that day, Liu Lan, who hadn't reacted yet, was immediately lifted up by several tall guards, who pressed her down on the bench, and a guard with a stern face picked up the board and fell down without hesitation. , The plank fell fast and hard, crackling, and most of it hit Liu Lan's leg.Although the imperial decree said that it was ten boards, but I don’t know which master’s order I followed, the eunuch who checked the number was confused, and the number of ten was messed up. At the end of this board, Liu Lan suffered at least twenty boards .

Su Qizhi had no choice but to nod, knelt down on the bed, opened the lid, and carefully rubbed the jasper ointment on the wound for Liu Lan.

Although Liu Lan said with a smile that it would not be a problem, but after all, the young master of the Liu family, who is well-clothed and well-fed, has never suffered such an injury?Su Qizhi looked at Liu Lan's leg, which was bruised and purple, and some places were still swollen like steamed buns. He had already carefully applied the ointment, and Liu Lan would tremble uncontrollably. The guilt is getting deeper and deeper.

Su Qizhi carefully smeared the jade ointment on Liu Lan's legs, then carefully put down the trouser legs, covered Liu Lan with a quilt, then jumped out of the bed and sat on the chair again.

"I'm sorry." Su Qizhi said sullenly, "I was the one who hit the second brother, and it was the second brother who hit the third brother, but you were the one who was punished in the end."

Liu Lan waved her hand indifferently: "Forget it, anyway, I was the one who took over from the second prince at the beginning, otherwise it wouldn't have been so violent afterwards."

"No, even if you don't come out, the second brother will continue to make trouble, it's all because of me, if it wasn't for me, the second brother would not trouble the third brother~~"

"Forget it, forget it, it's rare for the fourth prince to come to my house, so why did he say some dull words?" Liu Lan said with a smile: "This time, it can be regarded as gaining wisdom by eating a pit, and learning a lesson by eating a bit of a board. See you next time When the second prince bullies others~~"

"Are you also watching the fun?"

"How about watching the excitement, next time I have to think of a perfect way to deal with him quietly. When no one is around, throw ten caterpillars into his desk first and then talk~"

Su Qizhi burst out laughing: "This is a good idea, scare him to death!"

"That's right, after throwing away the caterpillars, throw a few frogs~hehe~~" Liu Lan thought about Su Yuzhi's frightened expression, and found it funny. Su Qizhi thought about the expression of the second emperor brother, and his smile gradually widened.

"That's right," Liu Lan saw Su Qizhi smile, and sighed, "You kid, you'd better smile more to look good, you look so sad~~ By the way, how is Ruizhi doing?" gone?"

"I'm still recuperating in bed. I went to see him yesterday. When he heard you were beaten, he clamored to come and visit you."

"That cousin of mine has a very solid heart. When he rushed out, I was taken aback."

Su Qizhi lowered his head and thought for a while, "I didn't expect that Brother Sanhuang rushed over first and got a hard blow~~"

"Ruizhi values ​​you as a younger brother very much. The fourth brother and the fourth brother are always talking non-stop. That day I thought you could avoid that stool, but I didn't expect that Ruizhi would rush out to block you, saying that the royal family The family relationship is weak, but the relationship between your majesty and your father and son, and the relationship between Ruizhi and your brother, are deeper than ordinary people." Liu Lan sighed.

Su Qizhi's tone flickered a bit: "My father and I have ~-emotions~~naturally~ very deep."

"Naturally," Liu Lan nodded, thinking of Su Qizhi who was tired in His Majesty's arms: "Did His Majesty blame you for this fight?"

"It's not really a reproach." Su Qizhi frowned, and his face was clenched into a ball: "Father, and the national teacher said a few words, all of which made me change my temper~"

Liu Lan couldn't help laughing: "Then the fourth prince is planning to change? If the second prince is still pointing fingers and scolding Huai in front of you next time, put on airs~~"

"I want to change it~" Otherwise, how can I satisfy my father, "But if I encounter such a thing next time," Su Qizhi thought for a while, "I will still slap him~"

"What if I suffer a loss in the future? Aren't all your royal brothers like my cousin~"

"I want to slap him if I suffer a loss~" Since the emperor said that his father wanted to abandon him, no matter who it was, he had to slap him.

Lie on the bed, Liu Lan looked up at Su Qizhi's stubborn face, and said helplessly, "Su Qizhi, you have a really bad temper."

Instead of addressing the fourth prince according to the etiquette, this kind of calling with the first name and the last name actually reveals a sense of intimacy.

Su Qizhi didn't notice either, and looked at Liu Lan angrily: "Everyone says I have a bad temper, so I'll slap him too."

"Tsk tsk, with this temperament, what should I do if I suffer from it in the future?" Liu Lan shook her head regretfully, took out a jade pendant from the pillow and handed it to Su Qizhi: "You can keep this."

"what is this?"

"This is a rare top-grade warm jade. It is warm in winter and cool in summer. It is of great benefit to the wearer's body. What's more, you should expose it to the sun first~"

Hearing this, Su Qizhi pointed the jade pendant up to the sun, and after a while, he saw the word "Liu" slowly appearing in the originally gentle jade pendant.

"This is the token of our Liu family. As long as you take it and go to all Liu's commercial banks, you can dispatch bankers and personnel at will."

"It's too expensive, I can't have it." Su Qizhi only really realized the Liu family's financial resources today.

"To prevent you from losing money," Liu Lan smiled nonchalantly: "If you lose your temper again in the future and get into trouble, it will always be beneficial to hold this jade pendant~~ If you feel guilty about my beating, you can Take it~-"

When Returning Man Xilan Volume 15 Those Debts Chapter [-] Decisions

Just kidding, Su Qizhi has never been Liu Lan's opponent, no matter what reason he finds out, Liu Lan can easily find a reason to let him accept this precious jade.

"Oh, what if you suffer a loss?" Liu Lan repeated this sentence no less than ten times in the afternoon.Su Qi's heart felt warm when he listened, the care from others can always offset part of the anxiety in his heart.

Su Qizhi accepted the jade pendant and was about to put it into her purse when Liu Lan quickly said, "Fourth Prince, let me help you wear the jade pendant."

Looking at Su Qizhi's puzzled eyes, Liu Lan explained with a smile: "After I recover from my injury, I will be leaving. Don't put this jade pendant, Fourth Prince, just wear it around your neck. Think about it."

"Are you leaving? Where are you going?"

"Go to various places in other places to inspect our Liu family's business, and learn by the way. There is no way, the Liu family's rules."

"Does it need to go so early?" Liu Lan is only eleven years old this year.

"I didn't go until I was 15, but I made an agreement with my father to go out early."

Su Qizhi nodded, and walked to the bed, Liu Lan tried her best to support her body, and carefully hung the piece of warm jade around Su Qizhi's neck, finally couldn't help it, reached out and patted Su Qizhi's head, He smiled and said, "You should be fine."

"En." Su Qizhi nodded.

"Be careful, don't suffer a loss."

Su Qizhi looked up at Liu Lan, "Why do you always say I'm going to suffer? Do I look stupid?"

Liu Lan laughed: "Of course the fourth prince is very smart, but I can't help worrying."

"With my father here, I'm sure I'm fine." Su Qizhi blurted out without thinking.

"With His Majesty here, naturally the fourth prince will not be wronged." Liu Lan nodded, and then said: "There is one more thing that the fourth prince must keep in mind. This is the most important thing."

"what's up?"

"After I leave, Fourth Prince, don't miss me too much."

Su Qizhi made a disdainful expression, "Don't worry, I will definitely not miss you."

"Really not? Not at all? Not at all?"

Su Qizhi lowered his head and thought for a while: "Well, I will miss it little by little."

Although Liu Lan is sometimes annoying, but after sitting by her side for so long, there will always be some feelings, and she will not be used to it if she leaves all of a sudden.

Liu Lan smiled and said, "It's good to have a little bit." Now there is a little bit, and one day it will become a lot.

In the evening, Su Qizhi left Liu Lan's room with the piece of warm jade hanging around his neck.

At the gate of Liu's house, Su Qizhi met a man who had just got off the carriage, and heard the old butler shout respectfully: "Master." Su Qizhi knew that this elegant-looking uncle must be Liu Lan father.

"Hello, Uncle Liu." Su Qizhi took the initiative to greet him.

"Hi, young master, are you here to find Lan'er?" Liu Jiyun said with a smile.

"Well, I'm here to visit Liu Lan."

"Hehe, that kid just came to the capital not long ago, and he has never had any friends here before, so I don't know who he is~";

"Under Su Qizhi."

"It turns out to be the fourth prince," Liu Jiyun suddenly realized, "No wonder the young master has such an extraordinary temperament, it is the fourth prince, and he is actually the fourth prince~~~~~ It's an honor for the fourth prince to come~~" While speaking, he looked at him deeply He glanced at Su Qizhi several times.

The two stood at the door and exchanged greetings for a while, Su Qizhi said goodbye and boarded the carriage to leave.

Liu Jiyun stood at the door looking at Su Qizhi's carriage and pondered for a long time before turning back to the mansion.

Liu Lan lay on the bed, spread her five fingers to let the rays of the setting sun shine through, and felt a sense of peace in her heart.

The jade that was given to Su Qizhi in the afternoon was a talisman that Liu Lan had worn on her body since she was a child. In normal times, it was a precious jade that was good for the body, and in times of danger, it was a very useful life-saving talisman.

The Liu family firm is spread all over Qingguo, and they can get help no matter where they go, not to mention getting money no matter what time it is is not a bad thing.

Silver can give people a lot of security, and they will never betray.

Thinking of Su Qizhi's smile when he left, Liu Lan couldn't help but laugh too. Such a little prince who is rumored to be arrogant and willful by the outside world is actually very transparent in his mind. As long as he smiles at you, he will smile very nicely .

The rays of the setting sun shone in through the windows, making the whole room golden.

It's just that I have a bad temper, but if it's bad, let it be bad, the smile on the corner of Liu Lan's mouth continues to widen, she is only 11 years old this year, can't do anything, can't stop her father's decision, and is not qualified to intervene in those rights disputes, When I come back from training, it should be fine. At that time, even if there is no way to stop everything, at least I should have the strength to take the fourth prince away. The bottom line is that the fourth prince will not be hurt. Then a person should be healthy and clear live in this world.

Now that I am leaving, let my amulet protect him, and when I come back, I will protect him myself.

Liu Lan, who was only 11 years old, smiled at this decision. He even felt that meeting Su Qizhi in the plum garden that day represented the inseparable fate between the two. From the moment he lay on the wall and looked into the plum garden, The fate that was destined at the first sight, maybe earlier, when I decided to go that unknown road, maybe it was the fate that was destined when I came to the imperial city, maybe it was earlier, earlier, when I was born At that time, the fate was settled.

When Su Qizhi returned to the palace, lights were lit everywhere in the palace. The dim lights also brought a touch of warmth to this normally dull place. Su Qizhi pushed open the door, and as expected, Su Xuan was sitting Waiting for him at the dinner table.

"Father, I'm back!" Su Qizhi smiled at Su Xuan and raised his voice.

"Qi Zhi is back," Su Xuan said with a smile, "Sit down and eat."

Su Qizhi happily sat down, took out the jade pendant that Liu Lan gave him, and handed it to Su Xuan: "Father, look at this jade pendant, it was given to me by Liu Lan~he said~~"

Su Xuan glanced at it lightly, and interrupted Su Qizhi's excited words: "It's just a piece of warm jade, there are many pieces of Qizhi, it's nothing unusual, let's eat quickly."

Seeing Su Xuan's lack of interest, Su Qizhi put away the jade pendant and put it on his neck again.

The huge dining room became silent, only the occasional sound of bowls and chopsticks colliding.

Su Xuan put down the bowls and chopsticks first, took the tea and rinsed his mouth, and didn't get up, just sat there quietly watching Su Qizhi who was eating, and couldn't help frowning again and again: "Qizhi, Father has said it many times No matter how much you like the dish, you can’t stretch your chopsticks more than three times, why can’t you remember this little rule now?”

Su Qizhi's hand holding the dish suddenly stopped in mid-air, and said in a low voice: "This dish is delicious~"

"No matter how delicious the dishes are~" Su Xuan emphasized again: "This is the rule that a superior should have~~"

Su Qizhi had no choice but to put down his chopsticks and finish his meal sullenly.

After dinner, Su Xuan said that there were still unfinished memorials, and took Eunuch Fuer to the imperial study.

Su Qizhi sat on the chair, looked at Su Xuan's back, and felt that there was something wrong with today's father.

Su Xuan came to the imperial study room and turned away the other servants, even the guard at the door made them take a few steps back, leaving only Eunuch Fuer in the room.

"Fore, sit down." Su Xuan pointed to the chair next to him.

Fore was also polite, saluted and sat on it.

"Fore," Su Xuan said hesitantly, "I want to talk to you about Qizhi today, do you feel that Qizhi is not like me and Liu'er in many ways."

"The character of the child is not similar to that of the parents. It is purely normal. This old slave thinks that the Fourth Prince is very nice."

"Hehe, of course it's not that Qizhi is bad, but~~ I always feel that he should be better, so that I can trust him with complete peace of mind."

"The fourth prince is still young, so when he grows up, it will be fine if he handles some government affairs."

"But Qizhi doesn't seem to have much talent in this area." Su Xuan pondered for a while before saying: "I don't pay much attention to it. When I went to watch Ruizhi today, I saw him lying on the bed and watching Lunshi. Books, I asked him a few questions casually, and Ruizhi's performance was beyond my imagination." His thinking was clear, his insights were unique, and he talked about state affairs with eloquence, far surpassing children of the same age.

"Your Majesty," Fore interrupted Su Xuan somewhat rudely: "Since Your Majesty thinks that the fourth prince has no talent in governing the country, why was he so determined to let the fourth prince be the crown prince? He asked the surroundings many times Someone hinted that doing so would harm him instead!"

"I only thought that he was Liu'er's child. He must be unparalleled in intelligence. It is not a problem to inherit my position~" Su Xuan's tone was a little sad.

"Has your majesty never considered from the perspective of the fourth prince, what will happen if an unsuitable person takes the position of prince?"

"That's why I'm thinking about whether to adopt the method of the former emperor's selection of the prince~"

"Your Majesty!" Fore yelled loudly, regardless of etiquette: "Your Majesty intends to be like the late emperor? Has Your Majesty forgotten what happened back then?"

When mentioning the events of that year, Su Xuan also had a slightly excited expression on his face: "Of course I will not forget, but if not, how can we choose a suitable heir for Qingguo? Maybe Qizhi is not suitable to be a prince at all, so hand over Qingguo to him How do you face your ancestors?"

"So, His Majesty has decided?"

"Yes, I have decided!"

"Then who will His Majesty choose as another training target?" It is also the person who finally competed with Su Qizhi for the crown prince.

"My son Ruizhi." Su Xuan was not the only one who saw Su Ruizhi's aptitude, even the grand masters often praised Su Ruizhi for his extraordinary intelligence.Other students in the academy also spoke highly of Su Ruizhi.

"Isn't Your Majesty afraid of the Fourth Prince's failure?"

Su Xuan closed his eyes: "If Qizhi loses, it's because of his inability."

Fore stood up and wanted to say something, but Su Xuan waved his hand to stop him, "Fore, an order will be issued tomorrow to let Ruizhi's mother and son leave the cold palace and move back to the original palace. Also, the one that Qizhi saw Set of books, pick out a few and send them to Ruizhi."

Many times, a small thing often has unexpected huge consequences. A small drop of water in the cloud may turn into a hailstone as big as a pebble.A small spark can burn down an entire forest.When you make a decision, you never know what impact it will have on your life.

Back then, Su Qizhi wouldn't have known that swallowing that piece of jade like a joke would change his life, and Li Luowei back then wouldn't have known that the man who warmed him would make him bear Liu Lan, who has chosen a strange path, will not know what kind of beauty there will be at the end of the road. Su Ruizhi, who has lived in the cold palace for a long time, will not know what Li Luowei's casual finger has brought to his life. , and at this time, Su Xuan, who made this decision, would not know that the most important thing in his life, from this moment on, is like the green grass that stretches to the sky, gradually drifting away.

The end of the first volume of "Returning to Man Xi Lan"

Time to Return Man Xilan Volume 1 Shocking Transformation Chapter [-] Birthday Present

It was the warm afternoon sun, and the wind blowing was also warm and smoky. In a small pavilion next to a lake in the imperial garden, Su Ruizhi was leaning on the railing, leisurely watching the small fish in the water, and throwing some flower petals into it from time to time.Frightened by the foreign object, the fish were at a loss in the water, scurrying around without direction. Su Ruizhi found it very interesting to watch.

Concubine Li, who was sitting at the stone table in the pavilion, looked at her son still looking so leisurely, and couldn't help asking: "Ruizhi, today is your father's birthday, have you prepared all the gifts?"

"It's already ready."

"Last year, Ruizhi spent seven to seventy-nine days transcribing the blessings for His Majesty, and His Majesty praised him unceasingly. What has Ruizhi prepared this year?"

"Analysis of the situation in the southwest region, and some suggestions for the army." Su Ruizhi said, throwing a few rose petals into the water as he spoke.

"Okay, this gift is better," Li Fei couldn't help laughing and said, "My son is smart, and every time he gives a gift, he is extraordinary. This year, my son's gift must be the most eye-catching."

Su Ruizhi smiled and said nothing, still leisurely watching the scenery and teasing the fish.

"My concubine heard from your cousin a few days ago that Liu Lan is coming back."

Su Ruizhi paused when he heard the words, and threw all the flowers in his hands into the water. Ripples appeared on the surface of the water that had just calmed down for a while, and the little fishes that had just formed into formation fled again with their heads in their arms. The scene of fleeing could no longer be seen by Su Ruizhi at this moment. He looked at Concubine Li and asked in disbelief: "Cousin Liu Lan~~ is he really coming back?"

"It was written in the family letter to your cousin. Now I am in my hometown in Bicheng, and I will be in the capital after a while. It's so fast. Ruizhi and Liu Lan haven't seen each other for eight years."

"It's eight years and 32 days!" While Su Ruizhi was speaking, his figure had already rushed out of the pavilion, "Mother Concubine, I have to tell the fourth brother the good news right away~~"

Qingyun Palace, the residence of the King of the Qing Kingdom, stands solemnly in the center of the palace, and other buildings in the palace surround this palace with a history of hundreds of years, whether it is its symbolic meaning or the accumulation of hundreds of years. The heavy feeling makes this place an inaccessible place.

Su Ruizhi walked all the way into the Qingyun Palace without encountering any obstacles. The guards all knew that this poor little prince who was once in the cold palace has become a hot celebrity. They all treat him differently.

"Fourth Brother~~" Su Ruizhi ran to Su Qizhi's room, and shouted excitedly as soon as he entered the door: "I want to tell you a good news~~"

Su Qizhi looked up and saw that it was Su Ruizhi, and was also very happy. He raised the letter in his hand and said with a smile: "I also have good news to tell Brother Sanhuang, your cousin Liu Lan is coming back~~"

"Cousin, he~~~ personally wrote a letter to tell you?" A basin of cold water was poured down, and the excitement that Su Ruizhi had just entered the room disappeared immediately.

"Yes, Brother Huang, look, here it is." Su Qizhi handed the letter to Su Ruizhi casually.

"Since it's a letter from my cousin, how can I read it." Su Ruizhi pushed Su Qizhi's hand aside expressionlessly.

Su Qizhi didn't care, folded the letter and put it aside, and asked, "Brother Sanhuang, do you have any good news for me?"

"Actually, it's not good news. I just want to tell the fourth brother that the roses in the imperial garden are all in bloom."

"Brother Sanhuang, do you want me to accompany you to enjoy the roses?"

"I don't want to go to enjoy the flowers, but I just came here to tell the fourth brother." Su Ruizhi sat down on the chair by the window, staring at the big tree outside the window, and couldn't see his expression clearly while speaking.

It was night, and the palace was brightly lit. In order to celebrate Su Xuan's birthday, the entire capital had to hold a three-day celebration. Since the night before, fireworks had exploded in the sky above the capital, colorful and colorful. It is like flowing water, flowing to the palace.

Tonight is the day when Su Xuan entertained civil and military officials in the palace. In order to show his importance, all the beauties and princes and princesses in the harem were also invited to attend. The dishes were poured and the wine was poured, the officials and colleagues were chatting and laughing happily, and all the beautiful people in the harem were smiling like flowers.

Su Qizhi's position has always been the closest to Su Xuan, and the dishes on the table in front of him are exactly the same as Su Xuan's. At this time, Su Qizhi, under the care of the little palace maid behind him, kept pouring food into his mouth. Drinking wine, drinking a glass, as if thinking of something, she smirked a few times, and then motioned for the colorful symbols to get another glass, one glass after another, and the smile on her face became more and more weird.

After a round of toasting with the ministers, Su Xuan and the ministers habitually looked up at Su Qizhi, only to find such an abnormal situation, "Qizhi?" Su Xuan shouted, "Why do you drink so much wine?"

"Not much``" Su Qizhi smiled at Su Xuan, "Qizhi is going to give Father a big present tonight."

"What gift?"

"Hey~" Su Qizhi smiled very cutely: "What Qizhi wants to give is a secret~~ What Qizhi wants to give is also a secret~~"

"I really drank too much." Su Xuan said with a smile, then turned around and continued chatting with the ministers.

According to the usual practice, the banquet will last until late at night, and the gifting session of the princes and princesses is the highlight. Some give swords, peace charms, and pianos. It can be seen that these gifts have been prepared and are all ingenious. Hope to attract Su Xuan's attention.

Among the princes, the thin booklet presented by Su Ruizhi seemed poor and the least eye-catching, but after Su Xuan read it, he laughed loudly, praised him again and again, and praised without hesitation: This is the booklet I received today. Best gift ever! "Among the princesses, the little princess Su Yatu danced a Dieyi Dance, which surpassed all the other sisters in front of her.

All the congratulatory gifts were delivered, only Su Qizhi remained silent.All eyes were on Su Qizhi.

"I wonder what gift the Fourth Prince has prepared for His Majesty?" the General Wang Ruhai asked aloud.

"My gift will be given to Father alone later." Su Qizhi replied.

"Fourth Prince, this is against the rules. According to the usual practice, gifts from princes and princesses should be presented to His Majesty at the banquet." The prime minister beside the general said.

"I specifically allowed one of Qi to present it," Su Xuan said to help Su Qizhi: "Qizhi's gift is rather special, and it is not suitable for presenting at a banquet."

The surrounding ministers were speechless now. Everyone has seen His Majesty's love for the Fourth Prince over the years. Now that His Majesty has spoken, he will only be at a disadvantage if he cares about it. The hall was quiet for a while , and the bustle of voices resumed.

"Thank you, Royal Father," Su Qizhi raised his wine glass to Su Xuan, and said with a smile, "I hope that at this time every year in the future, Qi Zhi can celebrate his birthday with Royal Father."

Su Xuan also raised his wine glass with a smile and drank it down: "How can you say nice things to make your father happy? After two years, Qizhi will leave the palace to build a mansion and marry a concubine. How can he have time to accompany his father?" Su Xuan Xuan suddenly felt very emotional: "Even Qi Zhi is so old, it's time to consider marrying a concubine~~"

"Don't marry a concubine~-" Su Qizhi shook his head, "Where is someone who wants to marry~~I don't want to marry~``Never marry~ Isn't it good to just be with the emperor every day?"

"This child is really drunk." Su Xuan shook his head, told the colored talisman behind him not to pour wine for Su Qizhi, and then turned around to accept other people's blessings.

It was late at night, and the banquet was over, Su Xuan and Su Qizhi walked slowly towards Qingyun Hall, Su Qizhi insisted that Su Xuan hold him like he did when he was a child, because he felt that the two of them held hands, stepping on the light and starlight. , Walking to Qingyun Palace together, only then can I feel like going home.
