Chapter 45: Hidden Worries
took the tea bag handed by Chang Runzhi, and watched her back disappear around the corner, and Liu Tong turned around and left in disappointment.
He handed the sign and entered the palace, and after going to greet the concubine, he went to the concubine's place.
Concubine Xian was very happy, and greeted Liu Tong and said, "You kid, you haven't been in the palace for a long time." β
"Niangniang, do you miss your son?" Liu Tong said with a smile.
"Yes, of course." The concubine said angrily: "I wonder when you will marry a stepwife, so that I can give you a branch and leaves." Look at you, you are lonely every day, I feel distressed when I look at it. β
Liu Tong smiled slightly, and took the opportunity to say: "If Erchen has a woman he wants to marry, he will definitely come to ask Niangniang to be the master of Erchen." β
"Oh?" The concubine was surprised: "Do you have a woman you want to marry?" β
Liu Tong smiled silently.
"You kid, you're still playing dumb riddles with me, hurry up and talk about it." The concubine couldn't wait to urge.
Liu Tong shook his head, still smiling, and said, "I can't tell SΓΉ Niangniang for the time being, and when the time comes, you will know." β
"It's still selling." The concubine glared at him, and sighed after a while: "Okay, you have grown up and have your own ideas, I don't force you." β
Concubine Xian paused, frowned and asked, "Then the Mo family ......"
The expression on Liu Tong's face was stunned.
Concubine Xian looked at his face and said slowly: "The Mo family has mentioned it a few times, and you have always avoided talking about it, so I know that you have no intention of marrying the Mo family again." But Xiao Jiu, the Mo family has never been sorry for you, is it your wife's maiden family, or don't be too cold. β
The concubine didn't know what the gap between Liu Tong and the Mo family was, so she wouldn't know that when Liu Tong heard the Mo family now, he was as disgusting as eating a fly.
He lowered his head and said nothing.
He had no choice but to say that he had no choice but to say: "If you really have a woman who wants to marry home, don't delay it for too long." Sooner or later, it will be arranged for you, and if the Nine Emperor Princesses want to enter the royal sect, they naturally have to be cautious. If the saint points out the marriage first, those thoughts in your heart will be in vain. β
Liu Tong got up and saluted the concubine, and said, "Niangniang's reminder, Erchen has written it down." β
Concubine Xian smiled with relief, and chatted with Liu Tong for a few more words, before letting Liu Tong out of the palace.
Liu Tong went all the way to King Rui's Mansion.
Today, King Rui is idle and does not do carpentry work.
He was dressed in comfortable regular clothes and was reading a book.
Liu Tong sat down beside him, looked over, and was happy when he saw the title of the book: "Yao Zijing anecdote? What book is this? β
King Rui put down the book and recommended it to him with a smile: "I only found it yesterday, and it is written with some strange stories, which is a unique taste to read." β
Liu Tong looked at King Rui, took the book over and turned two pages, and couldn't help laughing: "When did the fifth brother start reading these idle books?" β
"Passing the time." King Rui stretched: "Now I'm a big idler, can't idlers read idle books." β
After Emperor Yuanwu took off King Rui's position in the military department, he left him idle and did not arrange anything for him to do.
King Rui stays in the palace every day, and has completely become an idle prince.
Liu Tong put the book back and was silent.
King Rui tilted his head and asked him, "What's the matter?" β
Liu Tong said softly: "I just came back from the palace. β
"Gone to see the concubine?" King Rui was not surprised: "Did the same mother tell you about the third girl Chang San?" β
Liu Tong shook his head.
He was silent for a moment, then sighed softly.
"Fifth brother, you said that if I sue my father, I want to marry Miss Changsan...... Father, will he agree? β
Liu Tong looked at King Rui with anticipation.
King Rui shook his head very indifferently and said, "No." β
"Why?"
"Why?" Rui Wang chuckled lightly and asked Liu Tong: "You don't know why?" β
Liu Tong was suddenly a little deflated.
King Rui glanced at him, shook his head and said, "Xiao Jiu, the fifth brother sometimes thinks that you are quite smart and can see the situation clearly, but sometimes he thinks you are confused. It's obvious that you have to ask more. β
King Rui said: "You have feelings for Miss Chang San, and you are slowly getting closer to each other in familiarity, which is a good thing." But you can't ignore that the identity of Chang San is indeed not worthy of you. Even if you're remarried. My father doesn't value you anymore, and he won't be willing to let you marry a divorced woman. β
Liu Tong pursed his lips and asked, "Is there a way for the fifth brother?" β
"The way is what people think, and it is better to conform to the world." King Rui shook his head: "If you ask me now if there is a way, I can only reply to you, no." β
"Today, the concubine said to me, if I have a woman I want to marry, don't delay for too long, my father can think of me at any time, and then give me a marriage......" Liu Tong said anxiously: "I'm also a little worried......
King Rui smiled when he heard this: "Father can't think of your marriage for the time being, you can rest assured." β
"Why?" Liu Tong hurriedly asked.
King Rui said: "Because there is still the prince here." β
King Rui softly reminded Liu Tong: "The prince is bent on letting you marry the Mo family again, but the Mo family is now hindered by your attitude, so he can't open his mouth." When the Mo family opens their mouths and the prince comes out as a guarantor, your marriage can basically be decided. Now that the Mo family has not taken action, the prince is naturally happy to see that you are still alone. With the crown prince here, my father won't think about your life's events. β
This reason seems a bit far-fetched when connected, but Liu Tong does not feel that it is contrary to the harmony.
Because he knows very well that with the crown prince here, his father will never see him, a son who is not brilliant at all.
If the prince said, "Xiao Jiu's marriage is wrapped up in his son", his father can directly spread his marriage affairs.
It's frustrating, but that's the truth.
The crown prince is different from his father and other sons.
Liu Tong was happy and relieved for a while, but he was a little sad for a while.
Rui Wang had already figured it out, and said to Liu Tong: "If you don't do things, you will spend it here with me?" β
Liu Tong said absentmindedly: "I have something on my mind today." β
"Didn't enlighten you? What's on your mind? Rui Wang was curious.
Liu Tong said that he went to Runzhi today and wanted to give her a ride, but he met Fang Shuozhang.
King Rui listened and sat up straight.
He frowned, and after Liu Tong finished speaking, he asked, "So, Fang Shuozhang has already seen the relationship between you and Chang San?" β
Liu Tong hesitated: "I don't know ......"
King Rui glared at him helplessly: "Xiao Jiu, why are you so uncomposed?" You know that the prince is matching Fang Shuozhang and Chang San, and now that you have shown your face in front of Fang Shuozhang, he knows that you and Chang San have an unusual relationship, can he not sue the prince? The prince knows, the matter between you and the Mo family may have to be advanced! β
Liu Tong was suddenly startled: "No! β
"It's hard to say."
King Rui stood up and paced back and forth, and said to Liu Tong after a while: "The top priority, you have to determine first, what Fang Shuozhang thinks." β
Liu Tong hurriedly walked to go, and King Rui hurriedly called him: "Come back!" β
Liu Tong stopped, and King Rui pondered for a moment before saying, "No matter what, you have to be prepared for the worst." β
Liu Tong was silent, suddenly laughed lightly, and said with relief: "It's a big deal to resist the decree and not get married, maybe my father can still impress me once." β
