^_^ In the Hanyuan Palace, after the courtiers sent Emperor Wu of Yuan away, they gathered together in groups of three or five (chapter 64 of the stepwife). (Yes)? (Meaning)? (Think)? (book)? (Hospital)

The prince described the wolf bèi, and the Qi Dynasty looked over with a smile, and received a cruel stare from the prince.

King Qi raised his eyebrows, turned around and walked towards the outside of Hanyuan Palace, and chased a few steps to catch up with King Rui.

"Fifth brother," King Qi's smile was still the same: "Why do you want to be a good person today and speak for the prince?" ”

King Rui paused for a moment and replied calmly: "Brother Qi is too worried, what his father asks, as a son, he naturally has to ask and answer." What the younger brother said was all from the bottom of his heart and had nothing to do with the prince. ”

"Oh?" King Qi smiled: "It seems that the fifth brother really cares about the people's suffering." To be an idle prince is a condescending talent. ”

King Rui's heart froze, King Qi had already smiled, waved his hand at him, and left by himself.

King Rui stood for a moment, and King Li, King Zhu, and King Cen also passed by him one after another.

King Li sighed and said to King Rui: "The fifth brother helped the prince speak today, and I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse. The prince may not be grateful for your words, but on the contrary, he ......"

The words are not finished, but the meaning is clear.

Emperor Yuanwu asked King Rui to prepare a note for him today, and in the eyes of the prince, it was a signal that Emperor Yuanwu began to pay attention to King Rui. The prince is suspicious, and most of them will be jealous of King Rui because of this.

Zhu Wang, who had spent more time in the Criminal Department, spoke in a much more direct tone: "Fifth brother, are you sick today?" The prince caused you to lose your errand in the military department, and you still helped him speak? Are you brainbroken? ”

The puffed up King Zhu glanced at him, snorted heavily and left.

King Cen squinted his eyes and stared at King Rui for a long time before he said, "Fifth brother, my brother sincerely thanks you." At this time, the prince is afraid that he is afraid of you, more than a few of us. ”

King Cen laughed and left, but King Rui was still standing in place.

He sighed and looked up at the sky.

Liu Tong walked up to him, moved his mouth and said softly: "Fifth brother......"

"Huh?" King Rui looked at Liu Tong and smiled: "Do you not agree with me standing up like this today and speaking for the prince?" ”

Liu Tong shook his head: "Fifth brother, what you do, you naturally have a number in your heart, and I never have any ideas." It's just ......"

Liu Tong paused and sighed: "It's just that the prince may not be grateful to you." ”

"I don't want the prince's gratitude."

King Rui also sighed, motioned for Liu Tong to follow his pace, and said softly as he walked: "Do you understand the turmoil in the court today?" Father, I don't want to make too much trouble about this matter. Otherwise, the father would not have used the four meaningless words of 'great joy' to reproach the prince in the end. ”

King Rui shook his head: "It's a great achievement, at best, it can be said that the prince has great ambitions and is a person who does great things." At worst, it's just that he doesn't look at the actual conditions and is exaggerated...... What is there to blame for this? ”

"But......" Liu Tong frowned, wanting to say something, King Rui raised his hand to interrupt him: "These can actually be ignored. The important thing is that the father does not want the crown prince to make a mistake because of this matter. Didn't you see the expression of the emperor when the people of the prince's family stood up to speak for the prince and made excuses to exonerate the prince? ”

Liu Tong was stunned.

Rui Wang said: "That's one, relaxed expression." ”

Liu Tong stopped, and King Rui looked back at him and said, "What's wrong?" ”

"Fifth brother, it's really unfair." Liu Tong looked down at his feet and walked with his head bored: "The prince committed such a big thing, just because his father couldn't bear to blame him, this matter is going to be settled like this......"

King Rui only smiled.

Liu Tong looked at him and said, "Although I know that the fifth brother stood up to speak for the prince because of the fifth brother's own thoughts, but he was unwilling. Obviously, Brother Qi, they have already dug a pit for the prince......"

King Rui laughed and said, "Why do you think I'm speaking for the prince?" ”

Liu Tong was stunned for a moment, and King Rui said seriously: "What I said in the main hall is indeed my true words." The matter has already happened, and instead of arguing about the cause of this matter, it is better to control the consequences first, so as not to snowball the losses and get bigger and bigger. In the end, aren't the innocent people who suffer? ”

King Rui sighed: "As for the future, it doesn't matter how the cause of this matter will be investigated and what can be found." After all, when it comes to the crown prince, the father's heart is always biased. The courtiers looked at their father's face and acted, who dared to blatantly ask the prince to bow down and confess? The prince who broke the law and the common people were guilty of the same crime, which was just an ideal of the Legalists. For thousands of years, have you seen a prince who broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people? ”

Rui Wang patted Liu Tong's shoulder and said softly, "Okay, don't worry too much about me." It's good that the prince is jealous of me, and it's good that Brother Qi and they pay attention to me because of this...... I am still the idle prince, and I will not fight for power. They stared at me for a while, and then they gave up. ”

King Rui stretched his waist and said helplessly: "I still have to go and draw up a ...... I don't dare to be perfunctory with my father, and I can't do the carpentry work today. ”

King Rui looked at Liu Tong, and seeing that he was still silent, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay, young people, don't frown and don't speak, you're about to become an old man...... Instead of worrying about me, you should worry about yourself, when will you be able to hold the beauty? ”

Liu Tong was suddenly embarrassed, his cheeks were slightly red, and he said, "Fifth brother, don't make fun of me......"

"Who made fun of you? Starting a family and starting a business is a natural event. King Rui held his chin and thought for a while, and said, "After this incident, the prince was grounded for another month, so he will definitely stop for a while, and he won't pay too much attention to you." Take advantage of this time, you should think about it and give your own marriage, so as not to cause extraneous complications in the future. ”

Liu Tong hurriedly responded and followed King Rui out of the palace.

After separating from King Rui, Liu Tong sighed lightly.

There are some thoughts, he doesn't dare to say to King Rui. But the more he didn't say it, the more it took root in his heart, and it was difficult for him to ignore it.

The prince was stubborn and self-serving, taking pleasure in collecting wealth, competing with the people for profit, and ignoring the suffering of the people.

Compared with the fifth brother who is worried about the country and the people, how much worse is the prince?

It would be nice if the fifth brother was his son-in-law......

Liu Tong thought so.

And here, because the prince was grounded, the scene of the prince's mansion also stopped for a while.

The crown princess was in a panic for two days, but under the advice of Mama Shen, she also stabilized her mind, and took this opportunity to start using means to rectify the entire inner courtyard of the prince's mansion.

Chang Runzhi is not involved in these things. The crown princess also understands her temper, not to mention some secret things, she doesn't want Chang Runzhi to know.

So Chang Runzhi became idle again.

The crown princess asked Chang Runzhi to go back to the Hou Mansion to rest for a while, and then come back when the prince's grounding was lifted.

Chang Runzhi was happy, so he naturally responded happily, and took Yao Huang and Wei Zi back to the Anyuan Marquis Mansion on the second day.

It wasn't until he left the Prince's Mansion that Wei Zifang muttered to Chang Runzhi about the inner courtyard of the Prince's Mansion.
