Chapter 612: I've got your back
When Chen Ling returned to the post station, the little prince Huan was sitting in his room, stepping on the chair with one big smug, and letting three or four subordinates serve him, one for him to beat his shoulders and one for his legs, and the other two with tea and snacks.

And Xiao Huang squatted obediently in front of the little prince Huan.
When the little prince Huan was in the northwest, he looked very able to share weal and sorrow with the soldiers, not squeamish at all, the soldiers ate dry cakes, he also ate dry cakes, the soldiers only ate coarse rice, he only ate coarse rice, when the soldiers drank, he could also drink two glasses with people, and he could tell two jokes to make everyone laugh haha.
When he first arrived in the northwest, the dragon son and phoenix grandson, the most beloved son of the emperor and empress, was only twelve years old, and everyone was afraid that he would not be able to suffer, so don't cry when the time comes. also muttered in private, the emperor wanted his son to rub off on military merits, there was no such thing, he was simply here to cause trouble for them.
As a result, I didn't expect that after the little prince Huan came, he adapted well, rushed to the forefront of the war, drank a big bowl of wine, and could tell jokes to make people happy, without the prince's shelf and squeamishness at all. Of course, he is still very smart, he has his own cunning and way when fighting, leading the troops to use trickery and harmony to attack the west, unexpectedly, often not knowing how he wants to fight until the end, so he can often win the battle with less and more, bringing a helping arm to the Northwest Army.
Later, everyone also fell in love with this swaggering His Royal Highness King Qin, and praised the emperor and the queen for their wisdom and martial arts, and taught His Royal Highness King Qin well.
And Chen Ling returned to the capital to know that King Qin was still a prince after all, and he still had the nobility and squeamishness of a prince, as if he wanted to compensate himself for the suffering suffered in the northwest.
Chen Ling felt that he was afraid that the King of Qin who was like this was the real King of Qin, and when he was in the northwest, he didn't know how long he endured it.
The little prince Huan saw Chen Ling coming back first, took a sip of tea, closed the lid and said, "Yo, you are finally back Chen Ling, Your Highness has been waiting for you for a long time." ”
Chen Ling walked over and saluted him: "His Royal Highness King Qin." He asked again: "I don't know what His Royal Highness King Qin is looking for ministers?" ”
The little prince Huan said: "I can't come to you if it's okay, how to say, we can be regarded as colleagues who have shared weal and cold in the northwest, why are you still so shy about His Royal Highness, your temperament is really not good." ”
After speaking, he disliked the things he had here, and said: "The tea leaves here are too unpleasant to drink, and the tea used by the people in the palace is better than yours." Saying that, I looked very prescient, and said, "Fortunately, I asked people to bring tea with me, otherwise I wouldn't even be able to drink saliva from you." As he spoke, he pointed to a cup of tea on the opposite side and said, "Taste it, the big red robe that has just been paid tribute is only two catties, and I have all scavenged it from my father." If you think it's good to drink, I'll leave you half a catty. He pointed to the pastries held by his subordinates, and said: "The pastries made by the queen mother just made are first-class, I don't know how much I want to eat when I was in the northwest, and I drool when I dream at night, you can taste it too." ”
Chen Ling walked to the other side, lifted the lid of the tea bowl, and the fragrance of the tea in it was strong, and he knew that it must be good tea before he drank it.
Chen Ling said with a smile: "The minister is not more valuable than His Royal Highness, nor is he as picky as His Highness, as long as the tea can be eaten." ”
Huan Xiaozi said: "So you are a person, it's just not good, you don't take yourself seriously." Life is short for a few decades, of course, it is a pleasure to enjoy, how can you be so irresponsible to yourself. As he spoke, he asked, "By the way, I heard that the princess and sister-in-law summoned you to the palace, what is it for?" ”
Chen Ling didn't want to make trouble, if the emperor knew that the crown princess wanted him to be the county horse of the big county lord, he would only be even more reluctant to marry the fourth princess to him.
Chen Ling shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I just asked about the minister's injury." ”
Of course, the little prince didn't believe it, the crown princess had nothing to do, and asked him to go to Yanqing Palace just to ask about his injuries.
The little prince looked at Chen Ling, motionless, and said meaningfully with his eyes: "Chen Ling, you know me, the news is still very well-informed, especially for the palace." ”
Chen Ling said: "So what? ”
The little prince Huan crossed Erlang's legs, shook it, and said, "So even if you don't want His Highness to know, His Highness has a way to know." My queen mother too, and nothing in the palace can be hidden from her eyes and ears. ”
Chen Ling lowered his eyes, and his mood became even more irritable.
As he spoke, the little prince took out another thing from his body, threw it at Chen Ling, and said, "Here you go!" ”
Chen Ling picked it up and looked at it, it was a gold lacquer invitation. Chen Ling asked strangely, "What is this?" ”
The little prince Huan said: "Post, please come to the palace of His Royal Highness as a guest." After His Royal Highness moved into the palace, he has not invited anyone to come and see it, and since you are His Highness's savior, this honor will be given to you first. ”
Chen Ling said: "Then thank Your Highness for the invitation." ”
The little prince waved his hand, and asked the people who beat his shoulders and legs to step back, then got up from the chair, and said: "Okay, His Royal Highness should also go back, His Royal Highness will go into the palace to greet the queen mother, and go to see my little brother." ”
After speaking, he walked over, patted Chen Ling's shoulder again, and said, "Your Highness knows what you are thinking, don't worry, you are Your Highness's savior, and Your Highness will definitely support you." Brother Chen, His Highness is optimistic about you, come on, don't disappoint His Highness! As he spoke, he smiled and narrowed his left eye, giving him a look that we all understand, and then raised his head and walked away with Xiao Huang and the others.
Chen Ling looked at him, only feeling that his words were inexplicable.
After the little prince Huan left, Chen Ling picked up the post again and looked at it, it was an ordinary post inviting him to go to the Qin Palace, except that the post was a little fancy and the material used was a little more expensive, there was nothing strange about it.
Chen Ling put the post down, no longer thinking about him, and then thought of Princess Jun, and sighed again.
At this time, in Changkun Palace, Lin Yan also heard from Mu Zhi's mouth that the crown princess wanted Chen Ling to marry the county lord of Yuan.
Lin Yan said with some sorrow: "This is troublesome." ”
She has observed Chen Ling, his character is not bad, and Princess Jun also has a good impression of him, or even more than a good impression.
Although the emperor has not yet said that he is willing to let Chen Ling be Princess Jun's concubine, Lin Yan feels that there is no need to rush to exclude him from the list of candidates. She always hopes that her daughter's marriage can be happy, if Princess Jun likes it, and Chen Ling treats Princess Jun sincerely, Chen Ling's identity is not a problem.
But if the crown princess also fell in love with Chen Ling, it would be different.
Princess Jun and Lord Yuan are aunts and nephews, and if there is no aunt and nephew to fight for a husband, it will become a royal scandal at that time. What's more, Princess Jun and Lord Yuan are of the same age, and their relationship when they were children was also close, although they are now estranged, the two still have this friendship in their hearts, and she doesn't want to destroy the relationship between the two for this.
Mu Zhi persuaded Lin Yan beside her: "Niangniang, the slave doesn't think you need to worry too much. The crown princess has this plan, and His Royal Highness the crown prince may have other ideas about the marriage of the county lord of Yuan'er. ”
She still likes General Chen a little when she sees Princess Jun, although Princess Jun has a quiet temperament and never says it. When she was young, the emperor rewarded her with a jade pendant, saying that if she gave it to General Chen Xiao, she would give it to the general. When she played with General Chen Xiao when she was a child, Princess Jun's temperament was obviously much more lively and cheerful.
Two years ago, when I heard that Chen Ling performed very well in the northwest and made a lot of contributions, I wouldn't be happy for him.
And after asking for the jade pendant from Prince Huan, it is also often worn on the body. said that the jade pendant was a reward from the emperor, but it was better to say that the jade pendant had a special meaning for him.
Although Mu Zhi also likes the child of Lord Yuan, compared to Princess Jun, Princess Jun is naturally more important in her heart.
Princess Jun is a character who doesn't like to say anything, and she is too well-behaved and sensible, so she is afraid that the queen will exclude Chen Ling, so that Princess Jun will miss this marriage and leave regrets in her heart.
Lin Yan touched her forehead with a headache and said, "Let's take a look again, the emperor doesn't like Chen Ling very much." ”
Chen Ling's identity after the crime has always been a hurdle in the emperor's heart, making the emperor feel that he is not worthy of Princess Jun, and he is afraid that Chen Ling has a plan against Princess Jun.
