Tranquility

Gao Jie's face turned pale in an instant, and her carefully applied red lips looked like a red plum on the snow.

There was a dead silence in the room, and the Liu Er family had never felt such a difficult time.As if a century had passed, Gao Jie suddenly laughed lowly, the giggling became louder and louder, and the heartbeats of the Liu family also became faster and faster.She finally couldn't hold back her panic, and blurted out the old address: "Little Miss..."

Gao Jie ignored her completely, and laughed and shouted: "Haha, so it is, so it is! I'm just a joke, a joke... It's in vain that I dealt with those women with all my heart, but in the end it turned out like this, haha..."

Seeing that the master looked crazy, the Liu Er family did not dare to go forward to comfort her, but shrank back. She now regrets why she is so troublesome. It is only natural for a prince to find a woman. This has quarreled with the prince many times, but they were all small fights. This kind of thing will not offend the prince too much if it is used to please the concubine, and maybe it can also gain some benefits for his own boy.No, this time she pierced the sky: the sky is about to collapse.

Suddenly, Gao Jie stopped laughing, with an extremely calm expression on her face. Years of house fighting experience told her that the more angry she is, the more calm she should be. It's getting colder and colder.

Seeing that the master was like this, the members of Liu Er's family hurriedly straightened their bodies, and their expressions became serious.The tacit understanding between master and servant for many years told her that her master was serious.

Gao Jie has long been familiar with conspiracies and calculations, and soon a bold idea flashed in her mind, the corner of her mouth curled up with a slight arc, and said lightly: "Go and bring Xiao Shizi here."

Liu Er's family was surprised, the little prince was born with precious wealth, no matter whether it was wearing clothes, breastfeeding, or the position of the nanny holding him, as long as he felt a little uncomfortable, he would cry earth-shatteringly, and he was very picky. Can't sleep, it's just so hard to coax him to sleep, why bother to move him again, it's making people uneasy.

Although Liu Er's family thought so, they didn't dare to have the slightest hesitation, and hurriedly replied: "Yes."

Sure enough, when Liu Er's family came in again with the nanny holding the young son, the baby in the light gauze swaddle was already crying loudly, which was even more ear-piercing in this scorching weather.

Gao Jie frowned slightly and said, "Give me a hug."

The nanny stepped forward in fear, and carefully put the child into Gao Jie's arms. Unexpectedly, the child cried even harder, and her little hands struggled to get out of the swaddle, paddling non-stop.

Seeing this, the nanny hesitated to speak, but Liu Er's family was more daring, and said: "Master, your hands should be higher..."

Gao Jie glanced at Liu Er's family, and Liu Er's family immediately swallowed the words in their throats.

"Send someone to invite the prince, and say that the young prince is crying and is afraid of an emergency." Gao Jie looked down at her son tenderly, without the slightest anxiety that a mother should have, "Call all the imperial physicians."

The second Liu's family only responded, and then hesitated and said: "Gong's imperial physician is with the second prince..." Gong's imperial physician is the imperial physician with the best medical skills exclusively in the palace, and Liu's second family has to mention it.

Gao Jie didn't even look at Liu Er's family, and against the background of the baby's screaming and crying, her voice was extremely cold, "You have to come, even the imperial doctor who treated Mrs. Lin came, even the prince should be respected." Teacher."

There was no imperial doctor treating Mrs. Lin at all. Gao Jie knew it, and so did the Liu Er's family. The tacit understanding between master and servant for many years immediately made the Liu Er's family grasp the key point.

Therefore, when Liu Er's family personally went to the guest room where the second prince was resting to invite the imperial physician Gong, she said this: "The second prince cares about the little prince just like Mr. Lin. Just now, Mr. Lin was unwell and was helped by the prince to the small study." Please ask the imperial physician to take a look, I heard that the young prince is ill, Master Lin also let the imperial physician pass immediately, I thank the lord on behalf of my concubine."

Feng Chu's eyes flickered, Lin Qingyu and Feng Wei are together?What happened after he was helped down?How can you rest in the small study?

Feng Chu, who grew up in the deep palace, immediately smelled a hint of conspiracy. The concern for Lin Qingyu made Feng Chu feel a little uneasy, not to mention that he was still with Feng Wei, which made Feng Chu even more anxious.Not caring about other things, after Liu Er's family left with Imperial Physician Gong, Feng Chu couldn't wait to rush towards the small study with a few attendants...

Feng Chudai's guest room is quite far from the small study, but the small study is quite close to Gao Jie's residence in the inner courtyard, besides, Feng Wei went to invite Feng Wei from the second Liu's house first, so Feng Wei soon arrived at Gao Jie's residence.

When Feng Wei arrived, an imperial physician had already given Xiao Shizi the pulse, and was talking to Gao Jie. some anxious look.

She held the child and stepped forward a few times, not wanting the child to be more uncomfortable because of this, and his already hoarse voice became hoarse, making people worry that he would cry badly.Gao Jie hurriedly stopped, lowered her head and gently coaxed her a few times, then hurriedly raised her head and said anxiously: "My lord, the imperial doctor said that the little prince couldn't sleep well because of the heat, and his body was weak and hot, so he couldn't stop crying. But the child is weak. , putting too much ice in the room is not good..."

After all, it is his own flesh and blood, Feng Wei naturally feels distressed seeing his son suffering so much, but after all, men are calmer than women, he frowned, a little dissatisfied with Gao Jie's unclear explanation, and turned his eyes to the imperial physician standing aside.

Immediately, the imperial physician said a lot of proper nouns for clouds, mountains and mist. Feng Wei listened intently for a while, and his brows frowned more tightly. He can't eat too many herbal medicines to cool down the heat. In short, he has nothing to do.

At this time, many imperial physicians gathered outside, Feng Wei waved his hand to signal them to come forward to check the child's pulse, after a while, the results of several imperial physicians were all similar, in short, they were at a loss what to do.

The baby's cry was very powerful, and Feng Wei felt distressed and irritable when he heard it, he slapped the table and cursed: "What are you doing to eat? You can't even watch the heat? If something happens to your son, I will Pay for your grandson's life!"

Gao Jie burst into tears, handed the child to the nanny, wiped her tears with a handkerchief, choked up and said, "Bah bah, why bother to say such frustrating words, these imperial doctors are useless, the imperial physician just went to show the second uncle I'm sick, let him take a look when he comes, he must have something to do."

Feng Wei paced back and forth irritably, the guest room was far away from Gao Jie's place, Imperial Physician Gong couldn't walk fast because he was too old, he didn't know how long it would be before he came, he didn't want his son to cry for even a second longer.

Several other imperial physicians looked at each other. Imperial physician Gong has good medical skills but a bad temper. He is not very popular among imperial physicians. They have experienced this scene like today for countless times. It would be a lie to say that they are not jealous.

Finally a younger imperial doctor couldn't help standing up and speaking, "My lord, although using ice is too harmful, but Lengyu is not. Lengyu's tentacles are cold but extremely gentle. Not only is it harmless to the body, but it can also be beneficial after a long time." .”

Feng Wei was taken aback, Leng Yu was good but very rare, he had a jade pendant made of Leng Yu, only the size of a thumb and the quality was not very good, it would not be reassuring to use it on his son who was only one month old.

Feng Wei was about to invite the housekeeper to ask about any good-quality Lengyu in the house, but Gao Jie shouted in surprise from the side: "Don't Uncle Si Wang have a small couch made of top-quality Lengyu?"

The fourth king, Uncle Kang, is the emperor's cousin, a typical rich and idle person, and his actions are a bit absurd. He dislikes that the fief is not as prosperous as the capital, so he simply brought his family to live in the capital. According to the ancestral system, the princes have not been called. You can't enter Beijing at will, let alone settle down, but the emperor doesn't care about him, and others can't say anything.

This fief of King Kang is a relatively desolate place among the kings, so King Kang's wealth is not as good as that of other brothers. Unexpectedly, when there is water in the dry land, a piece of Lengyu seed material was dug up in his fief a few years ago. There were several cracks in the material, so the craftsman in charge of carving cut the jade into eight thin slices and inlaid them on the red sandalwood couch to make a small couch that can only accommodate half a person to lie on.

Once this couch was completed, it became Kang Wang's favorite thing. Others would not show it if they wanted to open their eyes. Only every summer, he would take out the couch and enjoy it alone in the bedroom.

It stands to reason that King Kang should be reluctant to lend out his cold jade couch so dearly, but Feng Wei didn't worry about it at all.In his heart, he is the future emperor. Even if King Kang is an elder, he is also a distant relative, and it is impossible not to obey him.

In fact, Kang Wang really can't offend Feng Wei. If he would still take Na Qiao before the birth of the emperor's grandson, the royal family is not easy to do, and he has to be careful in everything he does. Too low, others look down on him, too high It also aroused the emperor's jealousy, and taking Joe properly was a necessary means for the prince.

But now that the situation in the capital is clear, King Kang feels that the next emperor should be Feng Wei. At this moment, he is courting death by putting on airs.

So Kang Wang agreed without hesitation, and personally took his servants back to the mansion to pick up the couch.

Kang Wang's Mansion and the First Prince's Mansion are separated by a street. Because of the emergency, they took a shortcut from the side entrances of the two mansions and walked directly through the garden into the inner courtyard.

On the way, King Kang deliberately bluffed, and it took eight people to carry a small couch, wishing that everyone in the capital knew that King Kang had given the eldest prince a favor.Coupled with the help of caring people, the first guests in the garden gathered around to see the legendary cold jade couch, and then following the word of mouth of the servants, the people in the front yard soon came here, even if they were right. Xiao co is not interested, so he has to show concern for the little host of this banquet.

Tangning didn't know that the garden he was in was undercurrent. At this moment, he was lost and there was no one in the garden.

A few quarters of an hour ago, he was drinking tea quietly to think about his thoughts, and didn't want to be forced to laugh or cry by the two people who suddenly appeared outside.

"Brother, you actually asked me to fill in other people's houses. Are you my real brother? You actually pushed your sister into the fire pit!" A clear but delicate female voice screamed, Tangning had never heard this voice before. .

"How can I, sister, I'm doing it for your own good. You are not too young, not to mention those who are older than you, even young masters who are younger than you. They are all engaged at this meeting, or the conditions are not as good as his. Yes. After all, he is also a number one scholar. He is also a three-yuan student. He has a deep background and can see his future. If you marry him, you will be granted a first-rank imperial order in the future. I really don’t feel wronged, let alone He looks..."

This male voice, Tang Ning, recognized him. It was Ding Guangqi who brought the fake to the painting appreciation held by Qiao Hanyun a few years ago.

From their conversation, this female voice should be his sister, and the person they were talking about was Tangning who was hidden in the belly of the rockery and separated from them by a mountain.

Tangning rubbed her chin. Could this younger sister be the daughter of the Ding family that the matchmaker mentioned last time?He has already refused, why is the Ding family still not giving up, not to mention that this younger sister seems unwilling to marry him, they must have a plan.

Tang Ning nodded slightly, she definitely had to set the tone for her reasoning, but what were they plotting? He clearly offended Ding Guangqi, why did Ding Guangqi still want to marry his younger sister to him, and Ding Yun agreed, what happened back then? should know.

At any rate, she had been in the officialdom for a few years, and was taught by Lin Qingyu for a while. Regarding these schemes and schemes, Tangning also had some calculations in mind.

It's easy to guess what Ding Guangqi was thinking, just look at his sister's character, and marrying his sister is definitely for the purpose of embarrassing Tangning.

As for Ding Yun, Tang Ning felt that he had nothing to plot against him, but the Ding family had been trying to win over Lin Qingyu for decades. Until now, the Ding family didn't know that Lin Qingyu knew the truth back then, so they still didn't give up. Seeing that Lin Qingyu treated him very well Put your mind on it and hit him on the head.

Hearing the quarrel between siblings outside, Tangning's eyes turned cold, and the corners of her mouth curled up in a sneering arc, her whole body was quite majestic; he didn't know that the current him was far from the cowardly and hesitant self at the moment, the current him was very similar Lin Qingyu.

The heavy responsibility on her shoulders forced Tangning to quickly grow into a powerful patriarch and the most solid pillar of the family in just a few years.

Outside the rockery, the female voice interrupted impatiently without waiting for Ding Guangqi to finish speaking: "How many times have you said it, it makes people's ears callous. What's the use of a good-looking man? Can he be eaten as a meal?" ? Can his son born by a carpenter look better than his cousin, the prince? A widower from the countryside, who still raises the old man in front of him, has an eldest son, and still misses his ex-wife. Second brother, are you out of your mind?"

The three "returns" from behind the girl were louder and louder, almost piercing Tangning's eardrums. Tangning picked out her ears, and suddenly saw a vermilion corner of her clothes appearing at the exit of the rockery. wonderful.

Tangning didn't care about watching the excitement, so she quickly got up quietly, intending to leave this place of right and wrong, not because of his narcissism, not afraid of [-], just in case, what if the girl from the Ding family changed her mind after seeing him .

On the other side of the rockery, Ding Guangqi was forced by his sister to take another two steps back, just facing the entrance of the rockery. Fortunately, at this time, Tangning had already stepped out of the cave on the other side, and just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief. A male voice: "Zian, why are you hiding here? It's easy for me to find."

Tangning said inwardly that she was not good, and hurriedly stepped forward to grab Xie Baiyun's sleeve, and quickly drew a graceful arc with her right index finger, touching the middle of his own pouting lips.

Xie Baiyun was stunned for a moment, then the two people behind him appeared on the other side of the fake cave. Tangning didn't care about anything else, so she let go and fled in a direction where there were lush flowers and plants.

Xie Baiyun watched as Tangning's fleeing back disappeared into the shade of the green trees. When he turned around, he had a standard smile showing eight teeth on his face, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. He swiped and opened the folding fan to stop the pursuers brother and sister...

That's why Tang Ning was lost at the moment. He figured that Lin Qingyu's party would be over by now. For some reason, Lin Qingyu didn't come to look for him, so he might as well look for him by himself.Tang Ning wandered around for a while, but he didn't see a single person. Fortunately, he finally remembered that he had a hidden guard, so he jumped out with a gesture of his hand. Tang Ning gave orders.After a while, Mo Yi grabbed a servant and came back to ask, saying that Lin Qingyu was unwell and was helped by the prince to the small study to rest.

Now Tangning also felt that something was wrong, so she hurriedly let Mo Yi take the way. The garden is quite big, and she didn't know which corner Tangning ran into just now. Anyway, when he walked quickly to the small study, Tangning was already sweating profusely. It was hot and red.

Tangning panted and looked at the small one-story house not far in front of her. It looked very ordinary. Who would have thought that it was the core of the entire palace.He took a breath, walked a few steps closer, and suddenly several figures jumped out of the trees on both sides to stop him.

Tangning didn't panic either. With her clothes in a mess due to running, she cupped her hands and said, "Your Majesty Tangning, I heard that Lord Lin is not feeling well and is resting here. I came here to visit. I don't know if your lord is in there..."

Before he finished speaking, he stopped, because he recognized the face poking out from behind one of the guards, it was the personal eunuch of the second prince Feng Chu.

"you……"

Tangning's last words were silenced as the people in front of him fell to the ground. He looked helplessly at Mo Yi who had a naive face in front of him, and mourned for a second for his own eyesight. Who said Mo Yi was honest.

The matter was already like this, Tangning didn't hesitate, she raised her foot and walked towards the door, thinking that the door wouldn't open, Tangning took a step back, Mo Yi then kicked the wooden door open.

Tangning stepped in, narrowed her eyes, and quickly slammed the door behind her with her hands, closing the door behind Mo Yi.

Inside the room, Feng Chu was still in the posture of straddling Lin Qingyu, looking at Tangning calmly from the side.

Tangning frowned and said, "Second Prince, what's going on?"

Feng Chu turned her head, straightened Lin Qingyu's skirts calmly, carefully stepped over his body, and then jumped back to the ground, without the slightest bit of embarrassment on her face, as if she didn't do the shrinking movement just now.

Tangning ignored him, and walked to the bed to visit Lin Qingyu. Lin Qingyu was unconscious at the moment, his face was flushed, and the room was filled with an ambiguous smell. Without even thinking about it, Tangning knew what happened before. Tangning's heart sank to the bottom , Have they already had a relationship?What he was worried about finally happened?

Just as Tangning reached out to touch Lin Qingyu's forehead, a loud roar suddenly sounded from the roof:

"There is an assassin—ah—the second prince—"

Before Tang Ning could react, Feng Chu suddenly pulled him away and threw him back a few steps until he bumped into the desk before stopping. In just a while, Feng Chu had already hugged Lin Qingyu horizontally, and jumped into his arms Leap onto the beam.

In the blink of an eye, Feng Chu jumped down again. With a gloomy face, he hugged Tangning's waist and pushed him onto the couch. With both hands, he pulled off Tangning's skirt, revealing his delicate collarbone and fine white skin.

"You're crazy! Ah—" Tangning hadn't finished speaking when Feng Chu bit his collarbone.

This pain also made Tangning understand at once. The strength in his body was relaxed after being sober. He sighed deeply and understood that this was the only solution at present.

They have fallen into someone else's trap. The shouting on the roof just now is probably the prelude to arresting the rape. It is estimated that someone will break into the door in a short while. No, there is no need to break the door. The door bolt has been kicked by Mo Yi. .

At this time, the weather was stuffy, and the fishy smell in the room could not be emitted, so he couldn't hide it from anyone, even if he wanted to pretend that he and the second prince chatted again, it would not work.

And the person who set up this trap didn't want to catch Tangning's traitor, but the second prince and mentor Taifu Lin!

Men and men, students and teachers, if someone finds out, this kind of unethical act of disturbing Gangchang will not only keep the second prince away from the throne of the emperor, but will also completely ruin Lin Qingyu's life, his status, and his reputation. Well, his dignity will be completely destroyed by today's scene. Killing is nothing more than nodding. Today's move is far more insidious than killing.

Instead of doing this, it's better to let him Tangning bear the burden. After all, he and the second prince are just a relationship between a monarch and a minister, and they are both young. When they are not flirtatious, they will be gossiped at most.

Without ethics, the nature of the whole matter will be completely different, it's just a broken sleeve, the whole capital is more masculine, even the emperor has Gao Run beside him.

Tangning thought clearly, closed her eyes, and didn't think about Gao Run's difficult situation. She didn't think that he might be even more difficult than Gao Run. She didn't think about the future.

Finally, the glaring sunlight flooded into the sweltering room as the door fell, just like so many gazes outside the door...
