Chang Runzhi replied to Yao Huang like this, and he thought the same thing in his heart.

She never thought that Liu Tong's tight-lipped mouth was a sign of his weakness.

From Chang Runzhi's point of view, Liu Tong is actually not afraid of the prince, but the situation is oppressive, and he cares more about the well-being of King Rui than the prince on the bar.

If King Rui knew that Liu Tong had suffered such a grievance, he would not have let this matter be exposed so easily.

With King Rui's temperament, how can he not seek justice for Liu Tong, his most beloved brother?

When the time comes, what good will King Rui get?

Chang Runzhi thought silently, and his thoughts shifted to King Rui who went to Yanzhou.

I hope that the eldest brother-in-law can come back safe and sound, so that Ah Tong will no longer worry like that.

In a blink of an eye, it was the twenty-fifth day of the lunar month.

During this time, Chang Runzhi has already figured out the situation of the entire Prince's Mansion, and the idle courtyard, Chang Runzhi also let people sweep it, ready to welcome the New Year.

Considering that most of the subordinates in the prince's mansion are Liu Tong's "related households" who left, after counting the number of people, Chang Runzhi allocated silver from the public school, and each person was given a new cotton coat and a bag of rice noodles as a New Year's benefit, which made the people of the entire prince's mansion grateful to Dade.

Liu Tong laughed at her for winning over people's hearts, and pretended to be jealous: "Now they regard you as higher than my status." ”

"No, I take care of their food, clothing and housing, but what about their food and clothing." Chang Runzhi covered his lips and smiled.

King Rui has been walking for more than ten days since he went to Yanzhou, and Liu Tong has gradually calmed down from being restless at the beginning.

There are always letters coming from Yanzhou, and King Rui almost writes one every two days, keeping in touch with Liu Tong.

Judging from Liu Tong's expression, Rui Wang's situation is not bad.

It's the New Year soon, and the smile on his face is getting bigger, and the same as Chang Runzhi, Rui Wang said in the letter that he will rush back for the New Year.

"It's the New Year soon, I don't know what New Year's gift Chang Butler has prepared for your husband?" Liu Tong grabbed Chang Runzhi's hand and asked her with a smile.

Chang Runzhi raised his eyebrows and said: "Since ancient times, men have given women gifts, why is it my turn to want me to give him?" Can't he give me a New Year's gift? ”

Liu Tong pretended to be thoughtful, nodded and said, "Steward Chang is very right. ”

As he spoke, Liu Tong took something out of his arms in a similar way, and his slow appearance made Chang Runzhi laugh at him: "Don't dig it out, I don't know and think that I will give you bad clothes to wear, and you can't even hold a small thing in it!" ”

Liu Tong said seriously: "If the lady is willing to change her husband's new clothes, the husband is naturally willing to laugh." ”

"You're beautiful." Chang Runzhi glanced at Liu Tong and saw that he hadn't taken out his things yet, so he reached out and scratched his armpits: "Something is hidden and tucked, take it out!" ”

Liu Tong dodged a few times, and saw an opportunity to fight back, Chang Runzhi also hurriedly dodged, but was hugged by Liu Tong, and his back was attached to his chest.

"Stupid, how is it possible to put something in your arms? It's a little angular, and you can see it at a glance. ”

Liu Tong wrapped his hands around her, took out a long wooden box from the pocket of his left sleeve robe with his right hand, and gently opened the box.

There is a wooden hairpin lying in the box, the lines are smooth and soothing, the hairpin head is like a fairy feather, the middle is hollow and carved, and the hairpin body has a faint sandalwood fragrance.

"This is ......" Chang Runzhi stretched out his hand to take it, rubbing it gently, only to feel that the tentacles were smooth and slightly cool.

Liu Tong said with a smile: "In the past, I watched the fifth brother do carpentry all day long, but I also learned one or two hands. I don't know why the fifth brother always likes to make some woodwork for the fifth sister-in-law, but now that I have done it, I know the fun. ”

Liu Tong clasped Chang Runzhi into his arms even tighter, and said softly: "I carved it myself when I was idle and bored, do you like it or not?" ”

Chang Runzhi turned his head to look at him, and met Liu Tong's expectant and shy eyes. Seeing her look over, he pretended to cough and averted her gaze.

Chang Run's heart was overjoyed, and he handed the fairy feather hairpin to Liu Tong and said to him, "Put it on for me." ”

Liu Tong pursed his lips, but a smile leaked out of his eyes without reservation.

He pulled out the simple golden hairpin that was originally inserted on Chang Runzhi's head, and carefully inserted the fairy feather hairpin.

Chang Runzhi turned around and looked at him with a smile: "Is it good-looking?" ”

"Hmm...... The hairpin is very good-looking. Liu Tong praised the fairy feather hairpin, and Chang Runzhi made fun of him: "I am the one who asks the hairpin, not the hairpin." ”

Liu Tong smiled, leaned into her ear and whispered, "Good-looking, the best-looking." ”

This unreserved love talk made Chang Runzhi a little burned.

She lowered her head, revealing her slender white neck.

Liu Tong couldn't help but reach out and gently lift her chin.

Chang Runzhi raised his head, and the joy in his eyes had not faded.

When the love is strong, the four sides are quiet, and the two heads slowly come together, with lips and teeth in each other, full of tenderness.

After Xiaoyi was warm for a while, the two straightened their clothes, and Liu Tong and Chang Runzhi talked about business.

"There are still five days before the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and the fifth brother wrote that he can arrive in Beijing on the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month. Now the fifth brother should already be on the way. Liu Tong said, "On the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the royal family members will all enter the palace, and my fifth brother and I are no exception. You will inevitably enter the palace with me this year, prepare early, and it is estimated that you will return to the palace very late on the evening of the Chinese New Year's Eve. After all, the location of our mansion is far away from the imperial city. ”

Chang Runzhi nodded, calculating the preparations needed to be made to enter the palace in the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and listened to Liu Tong coldly: "The fifth day of the new year is the father emperor's thousand autumns, and the father emperor is forty and five this year, although it is not a full birthday, it cannot be sloppy on this day every year, birthday celebrations are inevitable, and birthday gifts must also be prepared." In previous years, I was collecting calligraphy and paintings or something to send to the palace, decent, this year you see, can you send something new. ”

Chang Runzhi suddenly asked, "Is the fifth day of the Lunar New Year the birthday of the saint?" ”

"Yes." Liu Tong looked at Chang Runzhi and said suspiciously: "You don't know? ”

On the day of the emperor's birthday, the people all knew about it, so Liu Tong wondered how Chang Runzhi didn't know about it.

Chang Runzhi was a little embarrassed.

The original owner is a stuffy person, she has never paid attention to this kind of thing, after marrying Fang Shuozhang, it is not her turn to receive and give gifts, let alone know what the emperor's birthday is.

After she came here, it was only a big year, and she had just returned home and was busy preparing for the marriage of her eldest son, when she was busy preparing for the marriage of her eldest son, she was not very familiar with the surrounding situation at that time, and it was too late to stay alone with a low-key and honest person, where would she ask questions.

"I never pay attention to these things, after all, it's the New Year, from the twenties of the lunar month to the Lantern Festival, **** is very lively, so I didn't pay attention to the fact that the fifth day of the Lunar New Year is the birthday of the saint." Chang Runzhi explained, thought about it and suddenly realized: "No wonder on the fifth night of the Lunar New Year, fireworks are set off near the imperial city. (To be continued.) )
