The emperor and princess visited in person, what an honor, not to mention that it was for a prince who had been neglected for many days, so everyone in the Rui Wang's Mansion was solemn, and they all knelt in front of the main gate to greet them, and even Rui Wang Liang Yinhuan, who had been sick for many days, reluctantly got up and waited in front of the door with everyone.

The emperor walked out of the imperial chariot slowly, his face full of hypocritical smiles, and the posture of a corporal of courtesy was extremely good. He stepped forward to help King Rui, who was kneeling on the ground, and said with a sympathetic look: "Fifth brother, please get up quickly, you are now entangled in your life, how can you stand kneeling outside on a cold day?" ”

Since the other party has done enough superficial work, Rui Wang naturally has to put on a mask and pretend to be extremely unhappy. "Brother Huang is serious. The younger brother's body is not angry, and he wants the royal brother to deign to make such a trip, but the younger brother is really unhappy in his heart, what is the point of waiting for these hours in front of the door? ”

"What is the fifth brother talking about? You and I are brothers, with the same root and branch, and now that you are seriously ill with your fifth brother, how can I sit idly by as a brother? Liang Yinhao's hypocritical rhetoric was very smooth, and he didn't see any awkwardness at all, and there was really such a little bit of brotherhood in the eyes of outsiders.

King Rui lowered his head and said yes, and when he saw Concubine Chen behind the emperor out of the corner of his eye, he couldn't help but be surprised, but in an instant, he regained his former calm. He said respectfully: "Concubine Chen." ”

Mu Qing also smiled and said softly: "I have seen His Royal Highness King Rui." ”

After the two politely greeted each other, Liang Yinhao pulled the sick Rui Wang and said, "Okay, it's windy outside, let's go inside to talk." ”

Mu Qing silently followed behind the emperor and King Rui, she didn't look around at every grass and tree, brick and tile in this Rui Palace, her face was still a calm expression, and her dignified and elegant posture was fully displayed. But only she knows that the reason why she doesn't squint is because she doesn't want to and doesn't dare. This used to be the place she was most familiar with, except for the cloud mansion in the past. In the past, when Yun Muchen was still alive, she always came to Ruiwangfu with this brother to play, it was full of too many beautiful past, too many memories of her quarrel with her brother, too many traces of her love affair with Ruiwang, she was afraid that she would see a familiar object when she looked up, and she was afraid that the slightest accident would touch her heartstrings, and she would arouse the deepest emotions buried in her heart.

When the emperor visited, he was naturally accompanied by a group of people, and the chief eunuch Yan Yong must have followed the emperor all the time, and Yin Zheng must also protect the holy driver, plus Mu Qing and her maids, the already not spacious room seemed to be crowded with people. Emperor Liang Yinhao said impatiently: "The room is stuffy, King Rui is a sick person, except for Concubine Chen and Yan Yong who are waiting here, everyone else will go outside and wait." ”

Liang Yinhao drove away a bunch of idle people, on the one hand, it was really uncomfortable for everyone to crowd in this room, on the other hand, he was not worried about safety, after all, this is also Rui Wang's Mansion, Rui Wang is not stupid enough to attack the emperor in his own mansion, and the arrogant Liang Yinhao feels that today's Rui Wang does not have such a rebellious courage. But the most important thing is that just in case, Liang Yinhao didn't want to take out the prepared fake snow lotus in front of so many people.

After the room was much quieter, Liang Yinhao took the lead in speaking: "Fifth brother, is your illness getting better now?" After the queen mother visited you last time, she was very anxious, so I brought the snow lotus in the palace to you for treatment. ”

King Rui apologized and said: "It's the uselessness of the younger brother, which makes the queen mother and the royal brother worried."

"The love between you and me, what is a snow lotus?" Liang Yinhao said with a smile, "What's more, you handled the matter of the fifth brother of the household department very well last time, and you should have been rewarded heavily." But fifth brother, you know, I really can't ignore the feelings of the elders in the court, if you don't make a show in front of them, I'm afraid that they won't give up in the future, and they will also grab your pigtails. So after many trade-offs, I have no choice but to wronged the fifth brother, I hope you can understand the hard work of the royal brother! ”

When King Rui heard this, he sneered in his heart: Obviously, you yourself are trying to suppress me, but now you are pushing this bad debt on the heads of others, and you are thinking about me in the name of it. My good royal brother, your temperament of stepping on other people's heads and climbing up has really not changed at all!

However, of course, King Rui would not say these crooked intestines in his heart, and said politely: "The imperial brother has good intentions for the sake of the country, how can the courtier not understand the emperor's heart?" Besides, those who serve their ministers should serve the lord loyally, thunder, rain and dew are all royal graces, and they must not be resentful because of a little punishment from their masters. ”

"Good! Fifth brother, if you can understand this truth, I will be relieved. Liang Yinhao smiled heartily, and then motioned to Yan Yong to take out the 'Snow Lotus'. He said: "Fifth brother, this is the snow lotus that Beimeng paid tribute to, and I heard that it has a miraculous effect on all kinds of incurable diseases. I think that fifth brother, you have become ill from hard work this time, this snow lotus must be excellent for your body, and you can hold it well. ”

King Rui got up and took the box containing the 'Snow Lotus', and hurriedly knelt down and thanked him and said, "Thank you for the gift of Brother Huang, long live my emperor." ”

Liang Yinhao also got up to help King Rui, and said with a deep smile: "Fifth brother, hurry up, this is what I, the imperial brother, should do." ”

Mu Qing looked at the hypocritical conversation between the two, and felt a chill in his heart, and at the same time a trace of guilt. Liang Yinhao was originally a hypocritical and cold person, she didn't feel anything, but now Ruiwang Liang Yinhuan also began to change under her many instructions and arrangements, becoming more sleek and more able to disguise, she didn't know whether such a change was a good thing or a bad thing for the originally upright Liang Yinhuan, after all, she forced Liang Yinhuan on this road step by step, and none of them had a way to turn back.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then the subordinates of King Rui's Mansion tiptoed in with a few cups of hot tea in their hands.

Liang Yinhao picked up the teacup, sniffed it lightly, and said with a polite smile: "The fifth brother still loves to drink tea as before, and even the tea leaves in the house are different from the outside, and there is actually an elegant fragrance of flowers." ”

King Rui lowered his head and smiled lightly, did not comment, just silently picked up his teacup, but for a moment he frowned and looked nervously at the emperor opposite. Seeing that Emperor Liang Yinhao was about to drink tea, suddenly, King Rui anxiously shouted: "The emperor is careful!" At the same time, King Rui was like crazy, and when everyone was defenseless, he stepped forward and knocked over the teacup in Liang Yinhao's hand.
