Chapter 218: Advance Alerting
In that meditation room, they looked like they were in harmony on the surface, and they laughed and chatted freely with each other. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info is just a dark overflowing gunsmoke, but it spreads out between the lines, making it extremely difficult for people to ignore it.
The crown prince and the king of Xiaoyao, the two princes who are most likely to inherit the throne, are now in the same room, how can they really talk and laugh in person and let go of the calculations in their hearts. is that each other has their own calculations in their hearts, and they have their own pairs.
It was originally invited by the prince to invite Xiao Chu to enter Datong Temple to chat, but who knew that on the way, he actually met Han Ye and Chu Rui, who happened to come here, which made the whole thing develop in an uncontrollable direction.
In the tea room, the smoke and gunpowder dispersed, and I had to wait for the tea to finally disperse, Xiao Chuxuan thanked the prince for the invitation, and then returned to Xiao's house with Chu Rui.
Since the departure of Datong Temple, Xiao Chusu has been silent, just walking the road under his feet, his face is gloomy, and he doesn't know what he is thinking. However, the four young people of the Xiao family on the side were obviously still reminiscing about the fragrance of the autumn tea just now, and they couldn't help but sigh lightly, and after raising their eyebrows a few times, Chu Rui muttered back.
"The autumn tea is indeed a fine tea, with a faint fragrance and unforgettable. Especially the third and fourth bubbles, they are the best in the world, no wonder they can enter the palace and become the tribute tea to enter the palace. Eldest sister, how can you say that this royal relatives know how to enjoy it so well, such a good tea is actually collected together, and it is not allowed to be passed on outside, which is really self-interested! ”
Although the Xiao family is doing a tea shop for a living, the fourth young master Xiao is also the only one in a million, and all the ordinary ones are good. But Rao is like this, today's autumn tea invited by the prince still made Chu Rui sigh, but he even disliked the good tea at home that he had felt good in the past.
Xiao Churui is a picky master, and today he let him taste such an excellent tribute tea, which is usually drunk in this family, and I am afraid that he will be disgusted in a short time. Because he had tasted it well, and knew that even if he scattered money and spent silver, he would never get the high-quality autumn tea, so Chu Rui was even more jealous.
muttered at the moment, the four young men of the Xiao family had already turned their hearts into bad thoughts, and said that they were looking for a time to go to the Xiaoyao Palace, and if they were lucky, they would also take all the Qiu Shuang Tea in the Hanye Mansion back to the house.
Han Ye, that is a serious relative of the emperor, and he is also the emperor's favorite prince, although this autumn tea is not what Han Ye likes, and he has never seen it in the palace. However, as long as the King of Xiaoyao is willing to open his mouth and wants to come to the most expensive tribute tea, the emperor will still order someone to send it to the palace of the King of Xiaoyao.
Everything in the palace is easy to handle, Chu Rui is also very good, and Han Ye's temperament is indeed good. It was Chu Rui who moved such a mind and made this thing a reality, so King Xiaoyao would not be annoyed.
What you like, you have to find a way to find it with great effort, this is the life principle of the four young people of the Xiao family. It's just that he was still wandering his eyes there, thinking about how to lure Han Ye into the palace to ask for Qiu Shuang tea, and when he snatched those good top teas into the mansion, the eldest sister, who had been walking in front of him since she left Datong Temple, suddenly paused at this moment, then turned to look at Chu Rui and asked.
"Today, why did you go to Datong Temple with Gongzi Han?"
The sudden inquiry, I didn't say hello in front of my head, because the eldest sister suddenly stopped and turned her head directly to ask. Therefore, Chu Rui, who was unexpected, was in a hurry to close the meal, and almost ran into his own sister. The danger stopped, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, and after this sigh, Chu Rui looked at the eldest sister and said.
"Eldest sister, I didn't make a good sound, and suddenly stopped and turned around, wanting to scare people to death."
"Don't talk nonsense, let me ask you, why did you get up to the time today to go to Datong Temple with Gongzi Han?"
She had just accepted the prince's invitation a moment ago, and the two of them hadn't chatted for a long time, and they had just drunk two or three brews of tea, and this Chu Rui and Han Ye were actually here. If it was only Han Ye's people, Xiao Chuxuan might still feel that it was a coincidence, after all, the Datong Temple is indeed a quiet place, if people are troubled, or want to be quiet, it is best to go to such a place.
But Han Ye is not the only one who suddenly came to Datong Temple today, and even his fourth brother is also there. In this way, it can be seen that Han Ye invited his fourth brother to go out of the house this time.
The four young men of the Xiao family are waiting on the side, why would they come to such a quiet and polite place.
Therefore, for the sudden coincidence of the two, from the moment he stepped out of Datong Temple, Xiao Chusu couldn't help but feel his heart in his heart. The more she thought about it, the more difficult it was to feel stable in her heart, so she directly stopped her steps, turned around and asked why she came to Datong Temple today, and made up this coincidence.
The eldest sister's unwarranted inquiry made Chu Rui not know what the eldest sister wanted to do for a while. However, the person also paused for a moment, and then came back to his senses, Chu Rui responded.
"Rise, whoever is idle will have that kind of sex. The Datong Temple is inhabited by a group of bald donkeys who are so muffled that they can't make a sound, and I'm not idle and bored, so I will get up to play here. ”
"Coming to Datong Temple, isn't it the intention you and Han Gongzi agreed in advance?"
"Of course not!" When the eldest sister's words fell, Chu Rui directly snorted and rolled his eyes, and said: "The two of me originally planned to go to the west of the city, Han Ye said that he was very interested in the kidnapping alley and wanted to meet some heroic people, so today I originally wanted to take him there and introduce him to Brother Chen by the way." Who knew that this road was only halfway through, Xiaoying suddenly appeared, and then muttered a little in Han Ye's ear, this Han Ye actually changed his hexagram halfway. Say the interesting thing about Datong Temple, the osmanthus that has been withered for many years in the courtyard actually lived, and also bloomed, the fragrance of thousands of miles, the monk in the temple because of the strange thing, so he took the osmanthus that was ruined and worked hard to make a crisp cake, and gave it to the public to taste. ”
At this point, I paused, and I still remember the fragrant and tender taste of the osmanthus crisp. Immediately smacked his tongue and sighed a few times, feeling that it was really unsatisfying to only try one or two, Chu Rui continued.
"Eldest sister, you are clear, the fourth brother has always liked the fragrant osmanthus flowers, especially the pastry made of osmanthus flowers, which is even more loved. So when Han Ye's words came out, of course the fourth brother had to come over and take a look. ”
Han Ye wants to get acquainted with the heroes in Abduction Alley, when can he not get married, Xiao Churui is the most familiar in this Abduction Alley, even if he changes things for a day. Therefore, when he heard that Datong Temple was interesting today, the monks took the cinnamon to make crisp and gave away the tastes, Xiao Churui also abandoned the original plan and changed his path with Han Ye on the way.
But it was also a shame that he changed his way halfway, otherwise he would not only have to miss the crisp cake made of the hundred-year-old cinnamon, but also the lingering autumn tea.
For Chu Rui and Han Ye to be so coincidental that they actually entered the Datong Temple, Xiao Chusu was a little suspicious at the beginning, but now that Chu Rui's words had just fallen, the doubts in her heart suddenly expanded several times. couldn't help but mutter, Xiao Chu said.
"Today's coincidence, if you want to say it, it comes down to the meaning of the King of Ease."
"If he hadn't proposed, how could the fourth brother be so idle and go to such a place to listen to the bald donkey Amitabha."
It's not interesting, the temple is a boring place for the four young people of the Xiao family to chant sutras and chant Buddha. It was only after he said a word that Yuluo remembered that the eldest sister was already in Zen by the time they arrived, and there was still the current prince sitting opposite.
At that time, Chu Rui was already surprised in his heart, but because the two brothers of Han Qi and Han Ye were mostly talking, and the autumn tea was really reluctant, Chu Rui also put this matter on hold. Now that I think about it, it was a clear question. Immediately smacked his tongue directly, Chu Rui said.
"Speaking of Datong Temple, eldest sister, when did you become acquainted with the prince? was so familiar that the two of them were invited to the temple to taste tea. Eldest sister, I remember the first time I met the prince in the market, eldest sister, your eyebrows are wrinkled and the lock is twisted. What is it now, but I have changed my mind and can chat with people? ”
If it was Han Ye who was chatting with the eldest sister in Zen Luo, Xiao Churui would not be surprised here. After all, Han Ye and they have known each other for a long time, and as Han Ye said in the temple, they are old acquaintances and old friends. It is also extremely normal for these old friends to be invited to talk occasionally.
This time, the person who invited the eldest sister turned out to be the prince, which had to be called the four young wonders of the Xiao family.
Because of his surprise, Chu Rui immediately made a direct inquiry, but in exchange for this inquiry, it was not Xiao Chuxuan's immediate answer, but an unclear sigh. It was this long sigh that fell out, and Chu Rui looked at the eldest sister with a headache and stretched out her hand to knead her eyebrows, and said.
"I'm so idle that I have made an appointment with the prince to chat with the prince today, even if I am full and have nothing to do, it is impossible for me to do such a thing as making trouble for myself. You bastard, these cups of autumn tea are so enjoyable, but do you know that your sister's invitation this time is so restless. ”
"Fidgeting, eldest sister, don't you want to say that the prince's invitation this time, the drunkard's intention is not tea?"
"Of course it's not in tea, are you an idle person to be this prince? When you have nothing to do, you can still invite people to talk about tea and spend your life and time? ”
The superiors have their own goals every time they act, and the prince's tea invitation this time is the same.
The prince invited his own sister to have tea for no reason, Chu Rui just saw this matter, and felt that it was strange, and now that the eldest sister's words fell, she was obedient to her heart. At that moment, his eyes were already turning again with thoughts, and Chu Rui said.
"Squandering his life, this today's prince is naturally not as good as the young master of our Pu family, so idle, otherwise the position of this prince may have been taken away by others. It's just that although the eldest sister said that the prince's drunkard was not in tea, where did his cunning mind fall? He is the crown prince, the future emperor, our Xiao family is just a merchant, how can he get the prince's affection, it is an invitation? ”
Being able to get the prince's invitation is by no means a special treatment that ordinary merchants should have, so Chu Rui's words are also suspicious.
As soon as the words fell, the eldest sister there couldn't hold back for a long time, and then she looked at the sky at the moment, and then sighed again, Xiao Chu said in a suffrage.
"Why did the prince submit the invitation, it's not because of you."
"Because of me?" The eldest sister's words, Chu Rui was not clear, and immediately people were suspicious, and Chu Rui directly explained. said: "Eldest sister, I've been obedient lately, haven't I caused anything?" ”
thought that he had caused trouble, and this time he still blamed the prince, so the prince invited the eldest sister to find trouble, but Chu Rui's heart fell straight down. It's just that although he is suspicious in his heart, he also seriously thinks about what he has done recently.
When he realized that he had been very well-behaved recently, and he couldn't do anything evil, Chu Rui directly opened his mouth to cry out for himself.
He is used to doing bad things, and if there are strange things, he has to think about whether he has done something by himself. It was Xiao Chusu's place, but he didn't have the heart to tease him at this time, so he immediately glanced at him and signaled him to give him a good look if he made trouble again, Xiao Chusu said.
"I said it was because of you, but did you say that it was because of your trouble?"
"Neither a curse nor a fool? Eldest sister, what do you say? ”
"It's your business with the Easy King."
"Me and Han Ye?"
Although Han Ye's identity has been exposed, Xiao Chusu still laughs at Han Ye and calls him Han Gongzi, and he has not changed his words because of his identity. So right now, Xiao Chusu suddenly called Han Ye the King of Freedom, in addition to being a little unaccustomed, Chu Rui also realized that the eldest sister's words probably had meaning.
Immediately, the pair of dripping ink eyes stopped turning, and Chu Rui said.
"Me and Han Ye, eldest sister, I don't know what you say. The prince invited you, what does it have to do with me and Han Ye? ”
"Who is the crown prince?"
"Of course it's the prince!" The eldest sister's words were very strange, but Xiao Churui still frowned and answered truthfully. As soon as the words of this answer fell, Xiao Chuxuan opened his mouth to continue the inquiry.
"What about Han Ye?"
"The Easy King!"
Although he didn't like Han Ye's identity, he couldn't change that Han Ye was the pride of the sky, so although his eyebrows were a little deeper because of the eldest sister's inquiry, Chu Rui still answered. It's just that the words were answered, but this heart was obviously a little disliked, and he pursed his lips directly, Chu Rui said.
"Eldest sister, if you have something to say, you can say it directly, the fourth brother is not the third brother, and I can't guess how much the eldest sister has to think about."
The eldest sister's words, the more she said it, the more uncomfortable it became, and she felt like something was wrong in her heart. And the thing she was worried about in her heart was also a thing that would be true and cause trouble, so after Chu Rui was impatient, Xiao Chushu was only shallow for a moment, and then said.
"Since you can't guess, then I'll tell you clearly. Chu Rui, I hope that in the future, you will not be so close to the king. ”
"Why!"
He has known Han Ye for a long time, and he has never seen his eldest sister say such a thing, but now he suddenly warned that Chu Rui has always been difficult to understand. However, because of the surprise in his heart, Chu Rui directly looked at the eldest sister with straight eyes, while Xiao Chusu sighed slightly and said.
"The royal family, in fact, is a battlefield hidden in the dark, and the competition for the throne has always been trampled on a large wave of blood. The crown prince and the king of Xiaoyao, the most qualified to seize the throne are these two princes, you are now so close to the king of Xiaoyao. Chu Rui, if you were the crown prince? Will you live in peace? ”
After all, the Xiao family is not an ordinary family, and being so close to King Xiaoyao should be thought-provoking.
Therefore, Xiao Chu's words, Chu Rui understood.
The heart fell slightly because of the eldest sister's words, and after a while, Chu Rui opened his mouth to ask.
"Eldest sister, are you the crown prince?"
