Zhao Mu originally thought that he would not fall asleep, but the appearance of Rong Zhao in front of him overlapped left and right, blurred and clear, clear and blurred, and finally I don't know how long it took, Rong Zhao in front of him suddenly became a woman, wearing a delicate pink and purple dress, smiling at himself charmingly, and he himself walked towards her as if he was bewitched, holding her hand, holding her, and lingering with her......

"Ah......h

"Lord Wang?" Mei Ruo heard the movement and hurriedly got up, saw the sweat in Zhao Mu's head, and hurriedly took the hand towel next to the pillow and wiped it for him, "Have a nightmare?" ”

Nightmare? Zhao Mu smiled bitterly, if this was also a nightmare, he wanted to immerse himself in such a nightmare forever and never wake up.

"It's fine." Zhao Mu raised his hand and took the handkerchief from Mei Ruo's hand to wipe his sweat, and said softly: "I'm thirsty, please go and pour me a glass of water." ”

"Okay." Mei Ruo glanced at Rong Zhao, who was sleeping deeply, and turned around with the corner of her skirt to pour a glass of warm water for Zhao Mu to drink.

"What does the prince think?" Mei Ruo asked in a low voice.

"Fortunately, I seem to have some strength in my body, you can help me and see if I can get out of bed." Zhao Mu whispered.

"Alright! Don't toss! Rong Zhao yawned and opened his eyes, lifted the quilt on his body and got out of bed, looked at Zhao Mu's pale face, and mocked: "Just a little bit of blind tossing, do you think we are not tired enough?" ”

Zhao Mu smiled apologetically and said, "I'm a little anxious, but Miss Meiruo is your person, it's not good...... Why don't you have Lao Rong Gongzi help me? ”

"Help ......" Rong Zhao just woke up, his head was a little empty, and he had to think about it carefully to understand what Zhao Mu meant, so after his heart was trampled by a hundred grass and mud horses, he sighed leisurely, "I remember that when I was celebrating the banquet on the outskirts of Xiliang City, the prince once invited me to go with me?" After such a long time, everyone has escaped death, and the prince's habit has not changed? ”

Mei Ruo was nervous when she heard Rong Zhao's words, thinking that it would be good if this was more serious for the prince, so she hurriedly said: "Childe, just now Sister Ziji said that something in the East Wing is going to be good, go and take a look." ”

Rong Zhao looked at Zhao Mu and smiled, turned around and went out.

"Lord Wang, the slave and maid called a little maid to come in and serve you?" Mei Ruoti yì said.

"Forget it, I don't want to go now." Zhao Mu said, lying back on the bed.

Mei Ruo naturally didn't want to ask too much, so she hurriedly pulled the quilt over and covered him, turned around and went out silently with the empty tea cup.

Rong Zhao returned to the east wing, where Zi Ji was standing staring at the hourglass and waiting for time, the complex condensation utensils next to her were running slowly under the effect of the alcohol lamp, and there was a brown liquid in the bamboo tube at the other end that flowed out little by little and dripped into a white porcelain jar.

"How?" Rong Zhao asked in a low voice.

"Childe woke up?" Zi Ji raised her hand to secretly wipe the corner of her eyes as she got up.

"What's wrong, crying?" Rong Zhao asked in wonder, "Who messed with you, go and clean him up." ”

"No, a drop of potion just got in my eye. It's been washed with water and it's fine. Zi Ji disguised.

How could Rong Zhao believe such an excuse, but Zi Ji didn't want to say that he didn't force it, so he only said: "Don't worry about Zhou Yueting, Zhao Mo and Lan Guilou, I promise you to personally investigate after King Rui's poison is resolved." You've been waiting for more than ten years, and it's not bad for a few days. Some things are not reached quickly, and it is easy to startle the snake when playing grass, and if this line is broken again, we are afraid that it will take a lot of energy. ”

"I listen to Childe." Zi Ji lowered her head and said.

Rong Zhao looked at Zi Ji's depressed expression, raised his hand and pressed it on her shoulder, and said, "However, you can send those people under your command who have never shown up to quietly stare at Lan Guilou, and first find out the movements of Zhou Yueting and Zhao Mo, so that we can make the next move." ”

"Really?" Zi Ji looked up at Rong Zhao.

"You can only keep an eye on their movements, and remember not to startle the snakes." Rong Zhao repeatedly advised.

"Don't worry, Childe, I'll arrange it." Zi Ji hurriedly promised.

Rong Zhao smiled, and was about to say something, when a shepherd dog suddenly barked outside, which startled Zi Ji, because he asked, "What's the matter, why is Blood Spot so angry?" ”

"Go out and have a look." Rong Zhao said, turned around and went out.

In the courtyard outside the door, Lan Yun and Poinsettia blocked the way of Xiao Yunxin's master and servant, holding their arms with both hands and not speaking, allowing the blood to shout at Xiao Yunxin's master and servant, while Xiao Yunxin hid behind the maid and scolded the blood spot without giving up.

"Bloodstains, come back!" Rong Zhao shouted and stopped under the eaves.

The shepherd dog glanced back at his master, and immediately put away the arrogance of grinning teeth, turned around and ran to Rong Zhao and waged his tail and begged for a petting.

Xiao Yunxin looked indignantly at the dead dog that was swinging its teeth and claws towards him and turned around and ran in front of Rong Zhao to wagging his tail and begging for mercy, a mouthful of blood suffocated in his throat, and his face was flushed.

"Miss Xiao, the prince's body is weak and he is not suitable to see guests, so please go back." Lan Yun said lightly.

Xiao Yunxin stood up from behind the maid, looked at Lan Yun coldly and asked, "Who are you?" Do you know what this Tingxue Zhai is? Get out of the way! ”

"I am the maid next to Rong Shizi of Jingxi Houfu, and this is the back garden of Lord Xiao's mansion in the Ministry of Rites. But so what? Miss Xiao was ordered by Lord Feng Xiao to visit Lord Rui? Even if it is, we have to take Lord Xiao's warrant to show it to our prince before we can enter. Lan Yun smiled faintly and refused to let go in front of Xiao Yunxin.

"Rong Zhao!" Xiao Yunxin shouted at Rong Zhao and asked, "Is this the rule of your Rong family?" A minion is a guest in someone else's house, not only anti-guest, but also dares to be disobedient?! ”

Rong Zhao sneered and walked over slowly, ignoring Xiao Yunxin for a while, he only raised his hand and touched Lan Yun's cheek, smiled dotingly, and said, "Good job, next time whoever dares to break into Xuezhai will directly let the blood spot bite off her leg." ”

"You ......" Xiao Yunxin immediately became angry when she heard this, pointed at Rong Zhao's nose and scolded: "Rong Zhao, don't go too far!" ”

"Wow!" The shepherd dog stepped forward to block in front of Rong Zhao, revealing his white fangs towards Xiao Yunxin.

"Ahh Xiao Yunxin screamed in fright and hid behind the maid.

Rong Zhao stretched out his hand and stroked the bloody head, looked at Xiao Yunxin helplessly, and said, "Miss Xiao, if I were you, I would reflect on it in my boudoir for ten days and a half months." King Rui almost went to chat with Lord Yama because of your bowl of lotus seed soup, aren't you guilty at all? ”

"It was made by the nurse! It has nothing to do with me......

"Shut up, you!" Rong Zhao interrupted Xiao Yunxin's words impatiently, "If it weren't for your single-minded desire to beg for a table and run to this Tingxue Zhai eight times a day, would your nurse have such an opportunity?" Your thoughts about King Rui are known to everyone in the world, and if people want to harm King Rui, do they have to start with you? You don't even understand this reasoning, even if you become Princess Rui in the future, you can only hold back King Rui, and sooner or later one day you will kill him! Rong Zhao slanted Xiao Yunxin with disdain.

"I won't!" Xiao Yunxin angrily retorted.

Rong Zhao sneered: "It's not that you can't, it's that you don't want to." But there are some things that you don't want to do and won't do. Just like this time King Rui was poisoned. ”

"I ......"

"That's it! I don't have the spare time to talk to you about this useless here, I'm tired and busy, now I'm going to dispense medicine to King Rui, please don't appear in front of me before I leave Xiao Mansion, okay? After Rong Zhao said this, he turned around and walked back, and instructed the shepherd dogs beside him: "Blood, drive out irrelevant people, and whoever dares to take a step closer to the courtyard gate in the future will open meat." ”

"Rong Zhao......" Xiao Yunxin wanted to say something, but saw that the dead dog was already looking at him with his teeth bared, so he didn't dare to say another word.

The big girl next to her was already frightened, so she took the opportunity to pull Xiao Yunxin's sleeve and persuade: "Girl, let's go back first, don't disturb Gongzi Rong to detoxify the prince." ”

Xiao Yunxin was so helpless that she had to stomp her feet and turn around.

After this trouble, the reputation of the blood spot spread in the Xiao Mansion, and those irrelevant maids and women began to hide from listening to Xuezhai one by one, so that there was no one within a hundred steps of Tingxuezhai.

Rong Yue's canonization ceremony was held on the 20th day of the first month after rigorous and intense preparations.

On the morning of this morning, Xiao Zhengshi got up at the fourth watch, changed into the court dress, sat in the official sedan chair, and went straight to the palace. All the officials of the Ministry of Rites and the entire harem stayed up all night because of this incident.

Queen Zhou felt bad, because she had received news that King Rui was poisoned when he was recuperating in Xiao Zhengshi's house, and the person who poisoned him was sent to the Criminal Department by Xiao Zhengshi along with his confession.

Hearing that the confession of the poisoner Liao family involved Zhou Yueting, the youngest son of the Zhou family, and confessed that the main envoy was the Zhou family, Queen Zhou suddenly couldn't sleep. immediately ordered someone to spread the word out, so that the criminal department must strictly try the case, and must find out the real mastermind, and he and the Zhou family will never carry this black cauldron.

Because of this, Queen Zhou attaches great importance to Rong Yue's entry into the palace, and there is a saying that the enemy of the enemy is a friend, and she hopes that Rong Yue will be able to suppress the momentum of Concubine Xian after entering the palace.

Rong Yue got up early in the morning and looked forward to Rong Zhao coming over, hoping to see him again, but he didn't see him.

The people who came from the palace were headed by Zhang Wanshou, and there were twelve big eunuchs to help take care of the things in front of the periphery, and twelve palace maids helped Lu Yun and Scarlet Yi to cook the dress and phoenix crown.

Under the guidance of the master of ceremonies of the Ministry of Rites and Zhang Wanshou, Rong Yue entered the palace, bowed one by one, kowtowed to those who should kowtow, and finally went to Fengyang Palace to listen to the queen's instructions.

Step on the white marble steps into the main hall of Fengyang Palace, the queen throne in the middle is the queen's mother, the queen is the virtuous concubine and the concubine respectively, and then down are the concubines and beauties of the lower grades, all of them sit upright in the hall, a lively scene of cynicism in the past, everyone or holding tea, or holding the incense burner and bowing their heads silently, the whole hall is silent.

Rong Yue kowtowed to the queen in a regular manner, but the queen was kind, first told her to get up, then asked her to sit down, and then ordered the palace maid to serve tea.

"Sister Concubine Yue is finally here, we've been looking forward to it for a few days." Concubine Xian looked at Rong Yue with a smile and said.

Empress Zhou gave Concubine Jin a look, and Concubine Jin interjected with a chuckle: "If it is said that Your Majesty is looking forward to Concubine Yue's sister entering the palace, what are you looking forward to Sister Xian?" Could it be that your Jinghua Palace is too deserted, and you want to find someone to chat with you as a companion? ”

"I'm looking for someone to chat with, but I'm not as virtuous as the queen's mother, and send my own sister to the emperor's pillow." Concubine Xian glanced at Concubine Jin angrily.

"Concubine Xian, if you are dissatisfied with this palace, just say to this palace. Today, Concubine Yue's sister just entered the palace, and you are making waves here, who do you want to give to you? Empress Zhou asked coldly.

"The concubine doesn't dare." Concubine Xian said that she didn't dare, but her expression was extremely arrogant.

Queen Zhou didn't care about her, and only said to Rong Yue: "My sister has just entered the palace, I'm afraid that there are many things that I can't adapt to, don't worry, take your time, if you need anything, just come and tell the palace." If this palace is busy, it will be the same if you tell Sister Defei. ”

Rong Yue leaned in and agreed, not saying much.

Concubine De smiled and said to Rong Yue: "The queen mother has always been the most thoughtful, then Ningcui Palace has already been cleaned up, and Concubine Yue's sister will go to see it later." ”

Rong Yue owed to the queen again, and said to Concubine De with a smile: "Because of the matter of the concubines, the queen and the sisters have bothered. ”

"That's a big deal." When Queen Zhou said this, she smiled again: "In the future, this harem will be your home, and we will also be your family." If you only care about such an external way, the harem will not be peaceful, not only is the palace derelict in its duties, but His Majesty should also feel uncomfortable. ”

"The queen's teachings, the concubines keep them in mind." Rong Yue leaned over and said.

"Alright! You are also tired for a day today, go back early, your majesty will go back to your Ningcui Palace in the evening, it is your duty and my duty to serve your majesty well, and this palace also hopes that you will give birth to a dragon heir for your majesty as soon as possible, and open up branches and leaves for the royal family. Empress Zhou smiled.

Rong Yue got up, bowed deeply to Queen Zhou, and said loudly: "Yes." The concubine retired. ”

Concubine De also stood up and said with a smile: "After being busy for all these days, I guess the queen is also tired, and the concubine doesn't bother much, so she also retired." ”

"Okay, today's canonization ceremony of Concubine Yue, you all got up early in the morning to watch the ceremony and sit together, you have all worked hard, let's disperse." Queen Zhou picked up the teacup and gently blew the tea.

When all the concubines heard this, they all got up and retreated, and followed Concubine De and Rong Yue to exit the main hall of Fengyang Palace.

Concubine Jin deliberately walked at the end, and seeing that everyone was gone, Fang turned around and came back.

Queen Zhou was rubbing her eyebrows and thinking about her thoughts, and when she saw her concubine coming back, she asked, "What else do you have to say?" ”

"Sister, this virtuous concubine is too arrogant, can we just endure it like this?" Concubine Jin frowned.

"What if you don't endure it like this? We don't have any evidence of her in our hands, and now Cheng Zhen, an unassuming thing, has asked the Xiangnan Mansion to calculate. Poisoning King Rui will definitely alarm His Majesty, and when Zhou Chengzhen does not die, he will have to be dismissed from office, you and I should think about how to pass this level first. "Queen Zhou is full of helplessness, her mother's family has the ability and ability to help, but people like Zhou Chengzhen's father and son are simply a burden.

"Sister, will my brother really be dismissed from office? You'll have to talk to your majesty about this! Yue Ting is still young and ignorant, and it is possible to be calculated and used by others! ”

"Speaking of Yue Ting, this kid is even more angry! You go back and tell your brother, if this kid continues to mess around like this, sooner or later the entire Zhou family will be ruined! Queen Zhou angrily gave Concubine Jin a roll of the eyes.

"Yes, yes, I must have asked someone to bring a message to my brother, but this is the matter of poisoning King Rui...... What if you are accountable? The concubine hurriedly excused her brother and nephew. The current head of the Zhou family, Zhou Chengzhen, is a concubine, and the concubine is a mother, and Queen Zhou is a concubine, her father and brother lost their lives to ascend the throne for the emperor, if not, the Zhou family would never have fallen to this point.

Empress Zhou frowned hatefully and said, "Your Majesty's least favorite thing is party strife, and King Su and King Rui will not give in to each other. Now that things have developed to this point, we can only make a fuss about the party struggle, as long as your brother is not too stupid, you should know who to blame for this matter. Besides, apart from the King of Xiangnan or the Pingnan Palace, who can have the guts to murder King Rui? That's the emperor's heir, and if you can't succeed, it's a big crime to punish the nine clans! No one would be stupid enough to do such a thing unless they had a stake in it. What is the benefit of my Zhou family's murder of King Rui? There is no concubine in this palace! ”

"What my sister said is, I'll ask someone to take the message out." The concubine said busily.

Empress Zhou waved her hand and said, "Don't meddle in this matter, I have my own arrangements." ”

Concubine Jin was suddenly surprised, Queen Zhou had any arrangements to do through her, she had three secret lines in her hands to contact the outside, especially the matter involving her brother Zhou Chengzhen, a fellow mother, Queen Zhou had no reason to fake others, what happened this time?

"You don't have to be surprised, as the head of this harem, this palace is not bullied for nothing. Although Zhou Chengzhen is not a weapon, in the end, it is the current head of my Zhou family, if he has something, the palace will not be able to get rid of it. We are grasshoppers on a vine, and the entire Zhou family is prosperous and lost, and it has long been impossible to dismantle! Queen Zhou sighed helplessly.

"What my sister said is that we all rely on my sister to get to where we are today." The concubine was busy with a deep blessing to Queen Zhou, "Now we can't help my sister, I'm deeply ashamed, but if my sister has any orders, my sister and I will go all out to share my sister's worries." ”

"There's nothing for you to do now, you just have to keep an eye on Concubine Xian for this palace." Queen Zhou leaned lazily on the phoenix couch, without the spirit of dealing with the concubines just now.

"Yes, my sister understands." Concubine Jin hurriedly agreed, "My sister has been tired for a day today, rest early, and my sister will retire." ”

"There you go." Empress Zhou waved her hand gently.

The concubine was blessed, took a few steps back, turned around and walked out.

"You wait a minute." Empress Zhou suddenly raised her head.

Concubine Jin hurriedly turned around and walked back, bowing and saying, "What else does my sister command?" ”

"This palace seems to have heard that the poison in King Rui was solved by Rong Zhao? Whether this is true or not, you ask someone to inquire carefully. If it is true, then this Rong Zhao cannot be underestimated. ”

"I've heard people talk about this, it's that Rong Zhao has a concubine who was accepted from the rivers and lakes, as if this woman is the daughter of a drug refining family, because the family was wiped out by the enemies on the rivers and lakes, and a little girl's family was lonely and helpless before she took refuge in Rong Zhao."

"How could the daughter of a family of rivers and lakes who was destroyed find Rong Zhao? This matter needs to be investigated. Besides, how could she, a person who walks the rivers and lakes, bow her head lightly to a gentleman who can't lift his hands and shoulders? Willing to be his concubine? ”

"These details are not very clear, sister, don't worry, I will ask someone to check immediately."

Empress Zhou nodded slowly and said, "Well, about this Rong Zhao, everything is very detailed, and I will tell the palace one by one when I find out." ”

"Yes." The concubine hurriedly agreed.

"Alright, it's okay, you go. In the past few days, you don't always go to your majesty to hang around, that Concubine Yue is an upstart, and you also avoid her edge. Queen Zhou admonished again.

"Sister, don't worry, I understand this." The concubine bowed and agreed, and when she saw that the queen had nothing more to say, she cautiously retreated.

However, after Concubine De and Rong Yue came out of the queen's Fengyang Palace together, Concubine De stopped and said to Rong Yue: "Today is a good day for my sister, and the congratulatory gift from this palace has been sent to Ningcui Palace." Presumably my sister is tired, let's not gossip today, and another day my sister will come to Guan Ju Palace to drink tea when she is free. ”

Rong Yue didn't see Rong Zhao today, and felt very sorry in his heart, but Xiao Zhengshi had already told her when he was in the post house, Rong Zhao was not in Rui Wang and was poisoned that day, so this time Rong Zhao didn't dare to leave Tingxue Zhai lightly. Rong Yue also heard Rong Zhao talk about Concubine De before, which was full of praise, and when I saw it today, Rong Yue also liked this indifferent and quiet woman in her heart, so she hurriedly owed and said: "Thank you sister for your love, I will definitely come to the door to disturb you when I am idle another day." ”

"Welcome." Concubine De said, looked back at her shoulder sedan chair had arrived, and said with a smile: "I'll go back first, sister will go back too, it's windy today, don't stand here for a long time." ”

"Sister walk slowly." Rong Yue watched Concubine De get on the shoulder sedan and leave, only then did she put away the smile on her face and said to Lu Yun, "Let's go back too." ”

Ningcui Palace is behind Fengyang Palace, and the straight-line distance is very close, but it is a bit detour to walk over, and you need to pass through the gate of Jinghua Palace of Concubine Xian.

However, Concubine Xian was also very busy today, and she didn't have the heart to fight with Rong Yue. Rong Yue returned to Ningcui Palace, and didn't have time to take a closer look at the decorations here and the congratulatory gifts sent by the ladies of the palace, so she only instructed Lu Yun: "Go get some food first, I've been singing about the city plan in the middle of the sky in my stomach." ”

Chen Cunxiao next to him hurriedly responded: "Your Majesty just asked someone to send pearl soup and four small snacks, and the servant asked someone to put it on the stove to cover it." With that, he personally went to the smoker cage to get the food box and handed it to Green Cloud.

Rong Yue knew that Chen Cunxiao at this time was different from when he was in Xiliang City and on the way to Beijing, after so many things, especially after the fire in the Biwu Study in the palace, the old eunuch had already served himself wholeheartedly and was loyal to himself, therefore, she also missed Rong Zhao even more, looking at the splendid palace except for a few slaves who followed all the way, there was no one in the palace, it was not so easy to think about Rong Zhao in this palace gate, and she sighed for a while, and put back the half-eaten dim sum and had no appetite.

"Mother, this is not appetizing? Why don't you try this red bean crisp again? ”

Rong Yue shook her head, looked at the carved window lattice and asked, "You say, what is Zhao'er doing now?" ”

"Niangniang is not worried about the prince, right? Didn't Lord Xiao say it, the prince now lives in the Xiao Mansion, Lord Xiao is a man of his word, the prince worships under Lord Xiao as his student, Lord Xiao will definitely take care of him, Niangniang can rest assured. ”

"Zhao'er is naturally stubborn, and he is not a material for reading at all, how can Lord Xiao be able to look down on him?" Rong Yue shook her head helplessly, in fact, she knew why Xiao Zhengshi would bring Rong Zhao into the Xiao Mansion. What kind of students, what let the son of a military general enter the country to supervise the sage book is just an excuse, if it weren't for the poison in King Rui's body that only Rong Zhao could solve, Xiao Zhengshi would like to draw a line with the Rong family.

"Don't think about it, let's go take a shower and change clothes. It's time for His Majesty to come in a moment. Chen Cunxiao persuaded in a low voice.

Rong Yue came back to his senses at this time, looked at the delicate snacks on the small table in front of him, and Sheng Qiong's emaciated pale face flashed in front of him, and finally sighed softly, got up and ordered Lu Yun: "Let's go, I can't take care of it much now, and go to the bath and change clothes first." ”

And at this moment, Rong Zhao, who was nagged by Rong Yue several times, was also sitting in front of Zhao Mu's bed, looking at the red charcoal fire in the gilded copper furnace, thinking silently. He stayed by Zhao Mu's side all day today, not only watching him take medicine, but also watching him eat and drink. I almost watched Zhao Mu go to relieve his hands and pee.

However, Zhao Mu is in good spirits today, since the moment he opened his eyes in the morning and saw Rong Zhao standing in front of his bed, he has been smiling in his eyes, and he is not even angry that Rong Zhao has sneered at him and said all the cool words. has a good temper, and then Mei Ruo couldn't stand it anymore, and privately persuaded Rong Zhao not to look at the prince anymore, the prince looked quite pitiful.

At dinner, Rong Zhao thought that Rong Yue must be by the emperor's side at this time, and such a good girl was about to be ruined by a bad old man, so she became more and more unsettled and couldn't sit still. Zhao Mu had been paying attention to his expression, how could he not guess what he was thinking, so he persuaded: "A person has a person's fate, and there are some things that cannot be avoided or escaped. ”

Rong Zhao was holding a belly of fire and didn't set off, when he heard Zhao Mu say this, and the person who ruined his sister's life happiness was Zhao Mu's father, so he simply shot at him with a machine gun: "Yes, a person has a person's fate, some people are born to be a scourge to the common people, see one love one, love one and throw one, some people can't get love for a lifetime, the end of the world is lovesick, and they can't see each other until they die." Do you still need to talk about these truths? What doesn't this son understand? What not to know? What haven't you seen?! You are a sick man, you can't lie in bed to raise your body, why do you have so much leisure? Did it work? Does it make sense? ”

Zhao Mu was kind enough to explain, but he didn't expect that he would stab the hornet's nest with a word, but the guy in front of him couldn't beat or scold, looking at him like this, Zhao Mu only felt faintly distressed, but he didn't know what to do for a while.

Seeing this, Mei Ruo, who was serving next to her, hurriedly stepped forward to make amends to Zhao Mu first, and explained for Rong Zhao: "Lord forgive me, my son-in-law is not in a good mood, and he didn't mean to lose his temper with you, isn't it...... What a coincidence. Besides, our son doesn't mean to treat you as an outsider, and he is only so willful towards his own talents on weekdays, don't be angry. ”

Zhao Mu smiled slightly and said, "It's okay." As long as he doesn't hold it to himself. ”

Rong Zhao also reacted at this time that he was a little excessive, this ignorant karma was boundless, Zhao Mu was Zhao Mu, his father was his father, and the father and son still couldn't generalize. Besides, his father is the emperor, even if Zhao Mu is his own son, he does not dare to disobey the emperor. What's more, the matter of the father's concubine was originally the son's care......

"Oh, it's me who is not good, don't worry about it." Rong Zhao said a perfunctory word, got up and walked out.

"Childe? Son! Mei Ruo saw Rong Zhao go out, hurriedly took his cloak and chased after him, and persuaded: "Childe, it's windy outside!" ”

Zhao Mu leaned on the couch and listened to Mei Ruo's persuasion outside when he heard nephrite, and sighed from the bottom of his heart, not knowing what to do with this wayward guy.

The next day, a reward from the palace was sent to Xiao Shangshu's mansion, and it was named and said to be for Rong Shizi.

Xiao Zhengshi asked someone to invite Rong Zhao to the front to thank the emperor and receive the reward, because it was Chen Cunxiao who gave the reward, Xiao Zhengshi deliberately avoided it, and left the small flower hall to Rong Zhao and Chen Cunxiao to facilitate their talk.

Rong Zhao knew from Chen Cunxiao that the emperor stayed in Ningcui Palace last night and favored Concubine Yue, not only rewarded Concubine Yue with many jewels, but also prepared a generous reward to send to Xiao's mansion to himself, and this favor made everyone in the harem red-eyed.

Hearing this, Rong Zhao was even more worried, frowning and said, "My sister is a straightforward character, and she is easy to be impulsive when she encounters things. My father-in-law has been in the palace for many years, and he is the most experienced and steady, and in the future, the things around my sister and my father-in-law will bother to mention it, if there is something difficult to deal with, my father-in-law must find a way to pass the letter out, and Rong will be grateful. ”

Chen Cunxiao hurriedly replied: "Rest assured, the old slave's net worth and life have been tied to Concubine Yue's mother, even if the old slave is for himself, he must do his best to serve the mother and serve the mother." Don't dare to thank you, the old slave really respects the mother and the prince. ”

"Okay, with the words of my father-in-law, Rong will be relieved." Rong Zhao said, pushed the jewelry box in front of him to Chen Cunxiao's hand, and said generously: "I don't need these things, my father-in-law can take them." ”

"Sins, sins! This is all good things rewarded by the long live lord, only one is priceless, this box is given to the minion, and the slave is afraid that it will not be blessed. Chen Cunxiao hurriedly waved his hand.

Rong Zhao feigned anger and said, "Father-in-law and I still need to see each other like this? It's not that the words just now are all scene words. ”

Chen Cunxiao naturally knew that although Rong Zhao was not stingy, he was not a fool. It's just a scene for himself to give this box of things, and even if he really gives it to himself, he doesn't dare to ask for it! So he hurriedly smiled: "This is really not, if the son is not at ease, then I will take the same!" These things are given to the old slave, and the old slave should not be able to sleep at night. ”

"Then you can take your pick." Rong Zhao said with a smile.

Chen Cunxiao really opened the box, picked out a string of Nanhong bracelets from a pile of jewels and held them in the palm of his hand, got up and said with a smile: "Dissatisfied with the prince said, the slave has been thinking about this string of Nanhong for a long time, and now thanks to you, I finally have the opportunity to have a little fun." The old slave is here, and Gongzi is very loved! ”

"Why should my father-in-law be so polite, in the future, if you like anything from mine, just take it and play with it." Rong Zhao looked at the thumb-sized string of agate in Chen Cunxiao's hand with crooked eyebrows, and said with a smile, "You're not welcome to me, I'm relieved!" ”

"What the prince said, the old slave will take it seriously." Chen Cunxiao smiled so much that he couldn't see his teeth for a while.

"It has to be taken seriously!" Rong Zhao also laughed loudly.

At the moment, there was nothing to talk about, and Chen Cunxiao didn't dare to delay his work, so he said goodbye to Rong Zhao and went back to the palace. Rong Zhao stood at the door and watched the old eunuch get on the horse and leave with the guards, and the smile on his face gradually faded.

"Childe!" Sheng Qiong dodged out of nowhere and stood behind Rong Zhao.

"Something?" Rong Zhao turned his head to look at Sheng Qiong and asked calmly.

“…… It's okay. Sheng Qiong pursed his lips and swallowed back the words that came to his lips.

"Don't stand here if it's okay, what are you going to do?" After Rong Zhao finished speaking, he hurriedly turned around and walked towards Tingxue Zhai.

Sheng Qiong stood in place and looked at Rong Zhao's back, the fist clenched in his sleeve slowly loosened, and he sighed in frustration and left.

The last poison in Zhao Mu's body was dissolved by Rong Zhao in five times, and it took a total of twelve days. In these twelve days, Rong Zhao not only detoxified the so-called "black widow", but also adjusted Zhao Mu's body to the point that he could get out of bed and walk around.

Xiao Zhengshi looked at Zhao Mu, who was standing in the room and walking slowly without anyone's support, and then thought about Zhao Mu's death a while ago, and he was excited for a while. sighed repeatedly: "God bless! Buddha bless wow! ”

"God and the Buddha are so busy, how can they pay attention to such a trivial matter?" Rong Zhao looked at Zhao Mu's emaciated figure, the corners of his lips rose slightly, and a little smug flashed in his bright eyes.

"Yes, yes, yes! This time, thanks to Rong Shizi. Xiao Zhengshi's wife Wang praised from the side, "Rong Shizi is really a wonderful hand to rejuvenate!" I can't imagine that I have such a ability at such a young age! ”

"Madame's got the prize." The smile on the corner of Rong Zhao's lips erased, and he raised a serious expression and threw his fist towards Mrs. Xiao, "Rong Zhao doesn't dare to be the word 'wonderful hand rejuvenation', this antidote depends on the poison spectrum in my family's Zi Ji Cun's head, I just use my strength." ”

"You can say that, but we can't." Mrs. Xiao said to Xiao Zhengshi with a smile, "Master, this time it's really thanks to Rong Shizi, in order to express her gratitude, the concubine wants to hold a banquet at home, and invite the sons and girls from all the mansions to sit down and let Rong Gongzi get to know each other, okay?" ”

When Xiao Zhengshi heard this, he hesitantly glanced at Zhao Mu, who was slowly returning to the couch, and said, "I'm too anxious, right?" This matter must be done only when Zilin is well. ”

"Oh, it's true that the prince's body has not recovered, but the root of the disease is gone, and it is only a matter of a month for the body to recover. But after the beginning of February, the lecture hall of the second Guozijian will be opened, and Rong Shizi will have to move out of the house to live in the Guozijian, and when he arrives at the Guozijian, he will eat and sleep with those sons of the family, if he doesn't know each other in advance, they are not familiar with each other, and the prince is awkward in the past! Mrs. Xiao said, and asked Rong Zhao again, "Rong Shizi, did you say that?" ”

Rong Zhao was a little dumbfounded when he heard this, and asked Xiao Zhengshi with a wink: "Go to Guozijian to study, do you want to live there?" ”

Xiao Zhengshi knew that he was not happy when he looked like this, so he said because he was tense: "The prince should read more sage books while he is young, don't waste his time, and regret it when he is old." The teachers in the Guozi Prison are all knowledgeable, but everyone who reads books is eager to live with them day and night, so that they can read in the morning and talk in the evening, and learn more from each other. ”

Rong Zhao thought that it was nothing to read early and talk late, but it was not good to eat and sleep together, and it was okay on weekdays, if the sunflower water came one day, wouldn't it be a big filling? I'm afraid I'll scare those sour gentlemen to death!

"Uncle." Zhao Mu leaned on the couch and opened his mouth weakly, "I still feel top-heavy and unenergetic in the past two days, but I'm afraid that this recuperation can't be well maintained in one or two days." Moreover, although the person who poisoned him has been caught, the mastermind behind the scenes has still not been interrogated, and no one is sure whether those people will attack me, so Rong Zhao's study in the country is not delayed? ”

Xiao Zhengshi was speechless for a while when he heard this, twisting his beard and falling into deep thought. The mention of the children of the military generals entering the country to study was said by him to the emperor himself, and the emperor also issued a decree to promulgate it, such a big movement is for Rong Zhao, but in the end, the children of other families have gone to study, and they will not go for Rong Zhao, so how can Xiao Shangshu's old face come down?

"The father and son also felt that what the prince said made sense. Rong Shizi's study in the country is a long-term plan, and he is not in a hurry at this moment. According to the meaning of the son, the prince will still live here listening to Xuezhai, and Rong Shizi will also live here for a few days, and when the prince returns to the palace in good health, it is not too late for Rong Shizi to go to Guozijian to study. Xiao Heng said from the side.

Xiao Zhengshi muttered: "What does Rong Shizi mean? ”

At this moment, Rong Zhao just wanted to move out of the Xiao Mansion immediately and live freely, because he arched his hand and said: "The love of Lord Xiao and Mrs. Xiao, Rong Zhao really dare not take it. Now that the poison in the prince's body has been cleared, he only needs to recuperate with his heart, and Rong Zhao is not proficient in this way of recuperation, so staying will not help much. Moreover, Rong Zhao has been busy with the prince's affairs since he came to the capital, and there are really some private matters that he has not had time to deal with. Therefore, I want to take a leave of absence from Lord Xiao and Lord Xiao, let me deal with some private matters first, if the Lord and Lord Xiao have any urgent matters that Rong Zhao needs to do, even if they go to the house of Ye Shenzhi in the west of the city, that is, my cousin, to find me, the Lord and Lord Xiao think this is good? ”
