Guarding the Dragon (8)

The emperor thought that he hadn't heard what Qing Ruishen said, and asked Hu Dehai beside him, "What did he say?" Do you want to apprentice with Mrs. Song? Learn from Song Taifu? ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Hu Dehai also felt unbelievable when he heard it, this is not a reward, but he wants to apprentice, what is the idea of this prince.

The emperor and the great eunuch looked at Rui Shen who was still kneeling at the bottom for some reason, but the queen's calm face had a hint of gloom. This kid is a little ghost, and he wants to take this opportunity to sue her in front of His Majesty. Hmph, I don't know how you died when you turn around.

The emperor here was really curious about the prudent intentions, and he couldn't figure it out, so he had to ask him directly.

Rui Shen's small body knelt straight, and waited until the emperor asked, then he said, "Erchen knows about learning, and no one can compare with Song Taifu." Erchen went to the school to study with Song Taifu for a few days, and admired Song Taifu very much. Erchen wanted to be a person like Song Taifu, so he implored his father and emperor to fulfill his son. With that, he bowed down again.

The emperor looked at Hu Dehai speechlessly, he finally turned around and wondered why he always felt that Rui Shen's words were strange. Because the emperor has not yet established a prince, Song Taifu is the teacher of all the princes, teaching the princes their studies. Rui Shen is also a prince, and naturally he also studied under the name of Song Taifu, so why not come to apprentice again.

Hu Dehai looked back at the emperor, glanced at the queen's seat slightly, and then leaned over the emperor's ear and muttered a few words.

The queen leaned slightly, but unfortunately did not hear anything.

The emperor's complexion changed, and when he looked at the cautious eyes again, he brought something inexplicable.

After a pause, the Emperor coughed lightly and cleared his throat, "In that case, then I will grant you this request." ”

Prudence is satisfied, and the whole person smiles brightly, as if he has obtained the best treasure in the world. This smile only thinks he is really stupid in the eyes of others, but in the eyes of those who care, it is very different.

But the most important thing is how to see it in the emperor's mind is what people want to know the most.

After returning to the banquet with a prudent return, the annual banquet continued.

The emperor was the first to leave the table at the end of the annual banquet, and the queen left with his companions. According to the rules of the ancestors, the emperor will stay in the queen's palace tonight, and the other concubines can only watch.

After the emperor and empress left, the banquet gradually dispersed, and everyone returned to the palace.

Rui Shen also took the magpie back on the dim palace road.

On the way, the magpie couldn't help but ask Rui Shen, "Is it really okay for His Highness to refuse His Majesty's reward like that?" "The other princes sharpened their heads and wanted to get the emperor's reward, but the princes of their family didn't want anything.

Rui Shen was quite satisfied with his performance tonight, and when he heard this, he smiled at the magpie, and said indifferently, "What do I want those rewards to do, I will take them back, and I will teach Grandma Liu to take them." If you are rewarded, it is equivalent to no reward. ”

The magpie thought about it, felt that he was right, and stopped talking.

The two returned to the palace before they took off their warm clothes, and Grandma Liu, who had finished eating and drinking elsewhere, also returned. The magpie hurriedly waited for Rui Shen to sleep, although he knew that tonight could not hide this matter from tomorrow, but at this time, he could hide it from Grandma Liu first.

The next day was the first day of the new year, and Rui Shen rarely slept lazily, and when he got up slowly, there was a sudden team of people in the palace.

The leader was Hu Dehai, who was beside the emperor.

When Grandma Liu saw Hu Dehai coming, she was surprised and inexplicably made her kneel aside, and she didn't think of waiting for Rui Shen to come out. The magpie was still tight, and hurriedly helped Rui Shen get dressed and led out to receive the order.

Last night, Rui Shen refused the emperor's reward, and the emperor later summoned Hu Dehai to ask about Rui Shen.

Although Hu Dehai has been following the emperor, he knows more about the movements in the palace than the emperor. Originally, Hu Dehai didn't want to say it, but when the emperor saw him stumbling and embarrassed, he was naturally more curious and wanted to know, so he forced Hu Dehai to tell the truth. After Hu Dehai struggled for a while, he told the truth everything he knew.

The emperor didn't speak for a long time after hearing this, but in fact, he also knew some things about prudence. It's just that he always has the pimple of Concubine Li in his heart, so even if he knows, he only doesn't know. But after seeing Rui Shen tonight, his heart was faintly loosened.

Hu Dehai also knew that the emperor was a little cautious, so he nodded on the side, "I don't know if the emperor has seen it, the clothes worn by these eleven princes are always inferior to those of other princes." These are all His Majesty's sons, and if you want to say it, ...... it is not good after all. ”

The emperor's face sank. Of course he saw it, isn't it too late, what Hu Dehai said is still good, the clothes on Ruishen's body don't fit at first glance, and the cuffs are short. Could it be that Rui Shen's palace is short of money?

"The queen is the mother of a nation and a model of women. She is too cautious about this. ”

Hu Dehai didn't dare to talk about the queen, so he had to hang his head and not say a word.

So after the emperor said a few words about the queen's badness, he really asked Hu Dehai to send a reward, and the reward was not very rich. Two sets of four treasures of the study, a few satin cloths, and a thousand taels of silver.

After Hood finished posting the reward, he smiled and said to Rui Shen, "The emperor also said that after this year, let His Highness go to the school, and then the old slave will personally come to see His Highness over." ”

"Thank you, Grandpa Hu." Rui Shen thanked Hu Dehai, his attitude was not humble, and he was not half proud.

Hu Dehai saw that people were used to being neat, and immediately felt that it was good to be cautious.

Grandma Liu didn't react from beginning to end, and after the others left, she was still in a state of stunned.

Rui Shen glanced at her and called to her, "Nurse." ”

Grandma Liu looked at Rui Shen.

"Nurse," said Prudence, "the cloth and the money are still in your possession. The two sets of four treasures of the study room will be placed in the inner hall. ”

Grandma Liu didn't know what to say, so she answered stupidly.

After Grandma Liu accepted all the things, Rui Shen took the magpie aside and spoke, "Magpie, I know that you have given a lot of money these times, and you have been rewarded today, and I should pay you back immediately." But I still have to owe you a few days for the time being, and I hope you don't blame you. ”

"......" The magpie looked at him, reached out and squeezed his little hand, distressed. Your Highness, my little Highness. What are you talking about? When you say this, the magpie is ashamed. ”

Rui Shen held the magpie back, "Magpie, don't worry, I will definitely be good to you in the future." ”

The magpie sneered.

The news that Rui Shen was rewarded soon spread throughout the palaces, and why he was rewarded by His Majesty, Grandma Liu went out and understood it all clearly.

After understanding the situation, Grandma Liu was angry and afraid. But if she wants to go back to the attack, she doesn't dare to be as public as before, for fear that now that she is not the same as she is cautious, then she will not be a bird, so she can only wait and see with her tail between her legs for the time being.
