Chapter 448 Two brothers
After not returning all night, Jiang Zhengxi returned to the palace, and naturally he was inevitably reprimanded by Prince Rong. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
However, after learning that Jiang Zhengxi did not secretly go to see Yan Ruojiu, Prince Rong did not pursue it so much, and after instructing him for a few words, he put it aside and did not mention it.
In Prince Rong's place, Jiang Zhengxi was mixed up.
But for the emperor, Jiang Zhengxi is not so confident, in the end, he did it, and he is still in the palace, even if he has Jiang Ziran's guarantee and cover, Jiang Zhengxi will inevitably be a little bit of a thief.
In the first few days, Jiang Zhengxi didn't even go out of the door, and kept being in his own courtyard.
Such a quiet and well-behaved appearance, but Prince Rong sighed for a while, this is a marriage, it is really different, he is so crazy that he can't see anyone on weekdays, but he has been well-behaved these days, Prince Rong is very pleased.
I was worried for several days, knocked on the side, and secretly inquired for a long time, in the palace, Prince Rong and the eldest princess had no bad news, and Jiang Zhengxi was completely relieved.
was thinking about how to spend this day when we couldn't see each other, Jiang Zhengxi suddenly received an edict from the emperor in the palace, announcing him to enter the palace.
Jiang Zhengxi listened to the call, just swallowed the heart in his stomach, and then raised his throat again, could it be that the autumn queen settles accounts?
Jiang Zhengxi felt apprehensive in his heart, after all, it didn't take long for this matter, hissed...... His imperial uncle still did this, and Jiang Zhengxi instinctively resisted.
I wanted to find an excuse to prevaricate in the past, but after thinking about it again, Jiang Zhengxi still didn't have the courage, and in desperation, he had to go to the palace with apprehension.
At this time, in the palace, in the Palace of Heart Cultivation, Jiang Ziran was playing against the emperor and talking at the same time.
"You...... The injury on the eye, it looks like you're almost recovered, right? The emperor pretended to be unintentional while falling.
"Uh...... Let my father get in the way, it's okay, thank you for your concern. The wound at the corner of the eye was mentioned again, and Jiang Ziran smiled embarrassedly.
When the emperor heard this, he still said with an expression of what you say: "You, you are still like a child, you get up at night and ask the palace people to light a few more lights, if you bump like this twice, the palace people in your palace, I will have to change all of them." ”
"Father, it was the son who was careless, and it has nothing to do with the palace people, just pay more attention to the son in the future." Jiang Ziran has always been soft-hearted and unwilling to implicate the innocent, plus this matter really has nothing to do with the palace people, as soon as he heard the emperor say this, he was a little nervous.
"You, you're always so soft-hearted, it's not a good thing, they're servants who serve you, and their masters bump into them, and they just can't escape the blame.
This time, for the sake of you being fine, I'll bypass them for the time being, and if there is a next time, even if you plead, I can't be soft-hearted. The emperor said as if he was a loving father and a strict lord.
"Yes, my son knows." The emperor's words made Jiang Ziran's heart beat a little, and he couldn't help but think of the events of that night again.
It is also strange to say, after the events of that day, in order to cover up the wound, Jiang Ziran lied that he accidentally got up at night, touched his eyes, and even took a few days off to rest in his own palace.
During this period, the emperor came to visit, and he explained the same, and the emperor was not suspicious at all, and was very concerned about his recovery.
As for asking about Jiang Zhengxi's night visit, Jiang Ziran made a time difference and prevaricated with the excuse of asking him to help, and the emperor also accepted it with a smile at that time, without the slightest suspicion.
Jiang Ziran should have been able to breathe a sigh of relief if he could prevaricate and cover up this matter safely, but the more the emperor trusted and cared about him, the more guilty and apprehensive he felt in his heart.
However, for the sake of Yan Ruojiu, Jiang Ziran still decided to continue to suffer.
In the past few days, he has forced himself to play chess with the emperor, just to continue to cover it up casually, he thinks, the emperor has a lot of opportunities, this little thing, if it takes a long time, it should not be mentioned.
Just thinking about it, after the emperor left his last son, he laughed again, "Hehe...... I won again. ”
When Jiang Ziran heard this, he looked at the chess pieces in his hand, and then looked at the chess game, he was a little secretly relieved, and complimented him with a smile: "Hehe, my father has superb chess skills, and my son, I am willing to bow down." ”
"Hehe, you kid, it's only a few days, and your chess skills can be unfamiliar to this extent, you ...... Didn't you hide something from me in your heart? The emperor pretended to be unintentionally concerned while collecting the chess pieces.
"Uh......" The emperor said unintentionally, but Jiang Ziran trembled when he heard it, and the hand holding the chess piece paused.
Father-in-law Zhou, who was waiting on the side, also noticed it, and his face was a little nervous.
Seeing that Jiang Ziran didn't reply, the emperor continued to smile indifferently: "Let's play another game, how about it?" ”
"Uh...... If the father doesn't dislike it, of course the son is willing. Seeing that the emperor did not continue to ask, Jiang Ziran immediately smiled and nodded, but his heart churned, and the corner of his eyes couldn't help but glance at Gonggong Zhou on the side, hoping to read some hints from his face.
However, everything was in vain, and the expression on Father-in-law Zhou's face had no reference value.
Jiang Ziran had no choice but to withdraw his eyes and cheer up to deal with this game.
Maybe it was because of his hypocrisy, Jiang Ziran's heart was extremely nervous, and he had to hesitate for a long time every time he fell, for fear that the emperor would ask some difficult questions again.
Just when Jiang Ziran was worried about dealing with the chess game, outside the palace, the palace people suddenly replied: "Your Majesty, the little prince has arrived." ”
As soon as the palace man's voice fell, Jiang Ziran's face instantly flashed a trace of nervousness, pinching the chess pieces, and clenching them a little unconsciously.
But the emperor smiled while falling: "Oh? Zhengxi is here, but it's not slow, Gonggong Zhou, go, call him in. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty." Gonggong Zhou received the order, and went out with the dust.
Jiang Ziran pretended to be calm and smiled: "Uh...... Is the father looking for Zhengxi's cousin? ”
"Well, there's something to do with him." The emperor nodded, and did not forget to say goodbye.
"Uh...... Since, since the father has something to tell Zhengxi, it is inconvenient for the son to be here, so the son will retire first. As soon as Jiang Ziran heard that the emperor had something to find Jiang Zhengxi, he planned to take advantage of this to retreat.
But the emperor smiled and said, "Sit down, sit down, don't hurry, don't hurry, wait until we finish this game of chess." ”
"Uh...... Father ......," Jiang Ziran hesitated.
"Sit down, you're not an outsider." The Emperor laughed.
"Uh...... Be. Seeing the emperor's unsuspecting appearance, Jiang Ziran had no excuse to postpone it any longer, so he could only sit back and continue to stubbornly settle down.
Outside the hall, Jiang Zhengxi was a little excited when he saw that it was Father-in-law Zhou who came out first, first glanced left and right, and then pulled Father-in-law Zhou, and asked tentatively in a low voice: "Hey, Father-in-law Zhou, how is my imperial uncle in his mood?" ”
Gonggong Zhou accompanied the emperor to listen to the corner of the wall for half a night that night, and he couldn't be clearer about the original situation, for Jiang Zhengxi's careful temptation at the moment, he knew it, was happy in his heart, and said with a smile on his face: "Hehe, with the king of Anjun with him, the emperor is naturally in a good mood." ”
"Huh? Ann, the king of Anjun is in it? As soon as Jiang Zhengxi heard Jiang Ziran's name, his heart was weak and nervous, and his tongue was a little knotted.
"yes." Father-in-law Zhou pretended to have an expression of not knowing anything, but he was already smiling in his heart, he was used to seeing Jiang Zhengxi, unruly, and not afraid of heaven and earth.
"Uh...... He, what is he doing in there? When Jiang Zhengxi heard that Jiang Ziran was there, his heart became more and more worried.
"Uh...... is playing chess with the emperor......" Zhou Gonggong smiled all over his face.
"Playing chess? Oh...... That, the emperor's uncle is busy, then, then I'll come back later......" As soon as Jiang Zhengxi heard about playing chess, he wanted to find an excuse to avoid it for a while.
This is the same thought as Jiang Ziran in it, and I have to sigh that the two cousins who have just become friends already have some tacit understanding.
After all, he is not ready to go to court, and besides, he came alone this time, and the inkstone did not follow, and there was no one to move the rescuers.
In case, hiss...... Jiang Zhengxi was a little timid in his heart, thinking that he couldn't go in now, and when he turned around, he had some intention of escaping.
Seeing this, Gonggong Zhou was really about to hold back his internal injuries, endured the trembling folds on his face, and pulled Jiang Zhengxi, who was retreating, and smiled: "Little boy, why are you going?" The emperor specially asked the old slave to invite you, hurry up and go into the palace with the old slave. ”
"Uh, no, no, no, Uncle Huang's chess is more important, I can wait." Jiang Zhengxi said with a very respectful look on his face.
"Hehe, little boy, don't you want the emperor to invite you in person, right?" Zhou Gonggong said with a smile.
"Uh...... How could it be......" Jiang Zhengxi smiled awkwardly.
"Then let's go into the hall with the old slave......" Grandpa Zhou laughed.
"Uh...... All right? "Jiang Zhengxi is still struggling.
