As Liu Tong and Chang Runzhi guessed, King Rui did encounter a halfway interception, and the killer was naturally ambushed in the three hundred cavalry he led. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

King Rui had already taken precautions, and he would be executed after being caught, and the news that King Rui was seriously injured and died was spread to the outside world.

Back then, when King Rui went to Yanzhou, Liu Tong had to worry all day long, for fear that he would be injured on the road. Now even if he hears the news that he is seriously injured and died, Liu Tong can say with certainty that it is impossible, such a thing.

After all, King Rui is no longer the King of Rui back then.

Chang Runzhi helped Liu Jingling, who was eager to learn to walk, pacing back and forth in the yard, hunched over for a long time, and it was inevitable that he was a little sore. Liu Tong asked Liu Jingyang and Xiuming to write big characters, and he went out of the house and took the fat and tender paws of his youngest son in Chang Runzhi's hand.

Xiao Jingling was still unhappy, and when he found that he had changed someone, he screamed several times, the child had a lot of strength, and his paws waved to Liu Tong's face, and there was a crisp sound of "pop".

Liu Tong helplessly hugged him and picked him up, pinched his little nose and scolded with a smile: "Bold child, you dare to beat Father Er!" ”

Chang Runzhi smiled and pulled the clothes that Xiao Jingling was wearing, so as not to expose his stomach and catch a cold.

Xiao Jingling has passed his first birthday, and it is already the height of summer.

If King Rui hadn't had an accident on the road, he would have arrived in the capital by this time.

Liu Tong is now a son and has everything to do, and he set aside an hour in the morning and afternoon to teach Liu Jingyang and Xiuming to read and write, and in his spare time, he helps Chang Runzhi take care of the children.

Liu Jingling, the child, was too lively, and as soon as he learned to stand upright, he was clamoring to take steps, and he was not afraid at all.

When I fell down when I was learning to walk, I didn't have a fear of walking like other children, but I was more excited to walk, and I often wanted to shake off Chang Runzhi's hand and walk alone.

Liu Tong smiled and said that this child is naturally rebellious and bold, but he must be well educated, otherwise it will be bad if he develops a character who is not afraid of heaven and earth.

Liu Tong and Chang Runzhi both wanted to break his temperament, but Liu Jingyang, the eldest brother, spoiled Xiao Jingling very much, as long as Xiao Jingling showed a little aggrieved look, Liu Jingyang would inevitably compromise with his younger brother.

Liu Tong was naturally happy to see that their brothers had a good relationship, and it can be seen that the eldest son is omniscient to the younger son, and he feels a lot of headaches.

In the small courtyard, there is a cycle of Liu Tong disciplining Xiao Jingling, Xiao Jingling crying aggrieved, Liu Jingyang rushing out to protect his brother, Liu Tong having no choice but to retreat, and Chang Run going into battle to take over Xiao Jingling's persuasion.

Hua Ze and Wei Zi couldn't cry or laugh every time they looked at it.

Since the steward Yu poured molten iron on the lock, the courtyard door of the small courtyard has never been opened. Fortunately, there are vegetables planted in the yard, and Wei Zi has also left vegetable seeds, and the chickens he raises can kill one from time to time to add a little oily meat, and the eggs are never broken every day.

It's just that there is no fresh meat available every day, and it is inevitable that there will be some grievances in eating.

Xiao Jingling has never lived a life of fine clothes and food, and he feels extremely happy to have egg custard to eat every day.

As for Liu Jingyang, he has also suffered for almost two years, and he is not dissatisfied with his current life. He is very conscious of his responsibility as the eldest son and eldest brother, he works very hard to learn Chinese and calligraphy, and he is also diligent, and he often helps Wei Zisa to sprinkle chicken food and sweep the yard.

He knew that his brother was naughty, so he tried to keep himself as steady as possible, so that his father and mother didn't have to worry about it more.

Liu Tong's situation in Zhongguan Hutong was also heard by King Nanping. In order not to make the prince suspicious, he really didn't have any reaction on his face, but secretly, King Nanping would occasionally ask people to send some supplies, and quietly put them in the courtyard at night to prevent others from knowing.

Liu Tong and Hua Ze knew in their hearts and didn't mention it, but when they got up the next day and found things in the yard, they quietly collected the things, used what could be used, and put them away for a long time.

It's like being a thief.

Life went on like this, until the news of King Rui's serious injury came, and it didn't cause much change to Liu Tong.

The prince thought that after Liu Tong knew the news, he would definitely be seriously ill. It disappointed him.

Early this morning, Hua Ze and Wei Zi got up early as usual, and after boiling hot water, the first thing they did was to go to the courtyard to see if there was anything to put in.

This has become a habit for the couple for nearly a year.

It's just that there is no thing left in the courtyard today, but there is a person standing.

Hua Ze vigilantly stopped Wei Zi behind him, carefully identified the person standing in the morning light, squinted his eyes, and suddenly his expression changed: "Rui ......"

As soon as he shouted out a word, he quickly closed his mouth, took two quick steps and said, "King Rui!" ”

Wei Zi also opened his mouth wide, and stepped forward and said, "Slave maid, slave maid go tell the master!" ”

The couple was inexplicably excited.

Unlike Liu Tong and Chang Runzhi's optimistic judgment that King Rui was not dead, Hua Ze and Wei Zi were a little apprehensive in their hearts.

If King Rui is really dead, when will His Royal Highness Nine be able to get out of this Zhongguan Hutong?

They didn't dare to show such doubts and worries in front of their masters, so they could only suppress their pessimism in their hearts.

Seeing the living King Rui now, how can you not make them happy?

Liu Tong quickly came out of the house, wearing his coat as he walked out.

The moment he saw King Rui, Liu Tong's heart suddenly settled.

"Fifth Brother ......"

He screamed, and his throat choked a little.

After all, he and King Rui have not seen each other for four or five years.

King Rui looked at his complexion much darker, and there were a few wisps of vicissitudes of wind and frost on his face, but the wisdom in his eyes was still there, dressed in a gray light robe, and in his eyes at Liu Tong, he was still familiar with Liu Tong's love.

Liu Tong approached King Rui, King Rui reached out to wrap his shoulder, patted him lightly on the back, and said, "Xiao Jiu, thank you for your hard work." ”

Liu Tong sniffed and said softly: "I'm okay, the fifth brother is in Yanbei, he didn't suffer, right?" ”

"Nope."

Rui Wang smiled, pushed Liu Tong away, looked at his face carefully, and said with a smile: "Look at you, you seem to be a little fatter." ”

Liu Tong smiled embarrassedly: "Well, Runzhi raised his younger brother very well." ”

"I heard that my younger brother and sister were pregnant and followed you to Zhongguan Hutong, and now your second son is one year old." King Rui said with relief: "The ninth brother has a good eye, he has married a good wife, he takes care of you and the children, it is very proper, and he has never left anyone behind." ”

Liu Tong nodded, raised his hand to wipe his eyes, and said happily: "Fifth brother, let's enter the house, I'll ask your brother and daughter-in-law to cook you something delicious, her craftsmanship is good!" ”

Rui Wang nodded, Liu Tong urged Wei Zi to make tea for Rui Wang, walked into the back room to see that Chang Runzhi had already gotten up and dressed, and hurriedly asked her to go to the Rui Wang to give a gift, and then go to the kitchen to cook something delicious.

Chang Runzhi did as he was told, and went to the kitchen to make handmade ramen, accompanied by meat dumplings, which was full of aroma.

Ruiwang was also not polite, and ate a bowl full of clean.

At this time, it was time for Liu Jingyang and Liu Jingling to wake up and get up. Chang Runzhi went to take care of the two children, and King Rui held the tea and said to Liu Tong: "My coffin will be transported back to Beijing in a few days, and the timing of the incident is also this time."
