Rong Zhao went out and left with Sheng Qiong and the others, and Lan Xiang slowly walked to the door to look at the various wind lamps flashing in the courtyard and the plum blossoms blooming under the light, the expression on her face was colder than the fragrance of plum blossoms.

"Girl, just let them go? This person is by no means a simple person, he pretends to be a fool, but in fact the city is very deep. Let him go today, and he will be a curse in the day. A man in Tsing Yi, who was not good-looking, leaned over and asked.

"Or else? He is the prince of Jingxi, and now he has the support of King Rui and Xiao Mansion, as long as we move him, the capital will definitely turn upside down. When the time comes, we will all be exposed, not to mention the immortal master's plans. Lan Xiangdai frowned, reached out and folded a few spring plums, and slowly kneaded them into flower mud.

"You and we send someone to keep an eye on him?" The man in Tsing Yi asked again.

Lan Xiang sneered: "This person is acting in such a high-profile manner, as if he is afraid that others will not know, do you still need us to send someone to keep an eye on him?"

"What do you mean?" The man in Tsing Yi couldn't figure out what Lan Xiang meant for a while.

"We just need to act according to the original plan, and about this Rong Zhao, we will leave it to King Su and King Pingnan to deal with. The Zhou family is finished, and our next target is Zhennan Houfu. ”

"Yes, my subordinates understand." The man in Tsing Yi bowed in response.

However, he said that Rong Zhao came out of Lan Gui Lou, and when he saw Huo Yun guarding the door with someone, he asked in wonder, "Why are you here?" ”

"The prince is not at ease, so he asked his subordinates to come down and take over the prince." Huo Yun said in a low voice.

Rong Zhao sneered and laughed: "What's not to worry about?" Can I still be eaten by an Oiran girl? ”

Huo Yun looked around vigilantly, and said in a low voice: "Lord Shizi, let's get in the car first, the atmosphere here is not right, and there is a feeling of insecurity among the subordinates." ”

"Huh?" Rong Zhao raised his eyebrows in surprise, looked at Huo Yun carefully, and said with a smile: "Are you more sensitive than my blood spots?" ”

Huo Yun smiled and didn't speak, turned around and opened the curtain of the carriage first.

Rong Zhao didn't talk nonsense anymore, and helped Mei Ruo's shoulders to get into the carriage, and Mei Ruo and Zi Ji followed suit. Sheng Qiong took a horse from the guard's hand and flew up, escorting Rong Zhao back to the Rui Palace, together with Huo Yun and the others.

In the carriage, Rong Zhao leaned against the wall of the carriage and sighed leisurely: "This orchid is not simple. ”

"What did Childe find?" Zi Ji asked hurriedly.

"The wine she brewed has a wonderful aphrodisiac effect, she not only gave Zhou Yueting and Zhao Mo to drink, but even she herself did not shy away from it, she drank it in front of me, I can't guess why this is even if I break my head." Rong Zhao frowned.

"Can why? Maybe she has an antidote herself, she drank this wine before, and she went to take the antidote when she turned around. Or maybe she took the antidote in advance before she dared to drink in front of her son. This is nothing more than a little trick, how could Childe not understand. Mei Ruo said.

"It's never that simple." Rong Zhao shook his head, he always felt that there was a deeper meaning that he had not understood, he had been engaged in chemical research in his previous life, and in this life, he was inexplicably victimized by poison and had to take up his old business in backward times without advanced equipment, and continued to engage in pharmaceutical research with his sophisticated and advanced chemical knowledge, and no one knew better than him the wonderful transformation between these medicines. Sometimes a dose of poison is not as simple as a dose. When two simple substances are put together, there will be many unexpected changes in different situations, not to mention this kind of poison or medicine that has been prepared by several or even a dozen or dozens of medicines?

Therefore, alchemists rarely test their own bodies, and these things are resolutely not imported if they can not be entered. In a situation like just now, that Lan Xiang could clearly not drink those wines, but she drank them extremely naturally, which can only have two possibilities, first, what purpose she had, and second, she didn't know anything about the medicine in the wine. But she made the wine, how could she not know?

"Childe, why did the little boy leave in a hurry that week?" Mei Ruo asked again.

"His father, Zhou Chengzhen, was escorted to the prison by the Criminal Department." Rong Zhao said, sneering softly: "The Zhou family is finished." ”

Zi Ji frowned and said: "But the head of the Zhou family is obviously Zhou Chengzhen, but he is actually the queen's mother!" As long as the queen is there, the Zhou family will not be finished. ”

"You haven't figured it out yet? Why can't Queen Zhou keep Zhou Chengzhen this time? Rong Zhao chuckled.

Zi Ji's eyes lit up, and she said in surprise: "Could it be ...... Is it that she can't protect herself? ”

Rong Zhao didn't speak, but slowly closed his eyes. In this whirlpool of power, he deeply felt that his strength was insignificant, and sometimes he felt that he could obviously turn the tide, but he was always a little bit of strength, but he was swept all the way in an unknown direction by the storm.

When the group returned to the Rui Wang's Mansion, it was the third watch in the middle of the night, Rong Zhao thought about quietly going back from the corner gate to wash and sleep, but he didn't expect that as soon as he entered the courtyard gate, he felt that the atmosphere was not right - all the lights were on, and there were four children in Tsing Yi standing in the courtyard, eight tall guards and four delicate maids.

Rong Zhao smiled bitterly, straightened his sleeves and strode into the door, and sure enough, he saw Zhao Mu wrapped in a cloak and leaning on the low couch where he sat every day, leaning over and pulling the charcoal in the brazier with a copper chopstick.

"The charcoal fire is not roasted like this, and it is not good for the body to absorb too much fire." Rong Zhao said softly.

Zhao Mu threw away the copper chopsticks in his hand and said lightly: "There are many things that are not good for your health, if you want to taboo them one by one, where can you taboo them?" ”

As soon as Rong Zhao heard this, he was prickly, and it was useless for him to say more, and the more he talked, he was afraid that the thorn in front of him would only grow longer, so he silently closed his mouth and sat down next to him.

Zhao Mu turned his head to look at him for a long time, and saw that this guy looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, so he just sat there and closed his eyes to recuperate, so he frowned and said, "Do you know how dangerous it is for you to go to Lan Gui Lou tonight?" ”

"Is it dangerous?" Rong Zhao asked inexplicably, "I had a lot of fun tonight, if it weren't for Zhou Chengzhen being taken away by the Criminal Department and Zhou Yueting retiring early, this son should still be drunk in Gentle Township at this time." ”

"Do you know that Gentle Township is also a hero's mound." Zhao Mu said.

Rong Zhao smiled and shook his head: "The prince thinks too highly of me." Only the hero is matching the hero's mound, and even if there is something like me, it is just gentle torture. ”

Zhao Mu found that he had accumulated a love affair for one night, which was like a heavy punch on cotton. For a while, my heart was very complicated, so I looked at Rong Zhao and didn't speak. At this time, he clearly felt that there was actually nothing he could do in the face of Rong Zhao, even if he had thought of a thousand ways to deal with him or clean him up when he couldn't see him, but when he really faced him, he still couldn't do anything.

"Lord Shizi, I'm afraid you don't know yet, right? Just when Zhao Mo entered Langui Tower, the three hundred soldiers of Xiangnan Wangfu had already surrounded Langui Tower. Mama Song looked at Rong Zhao dissatisfied.

"Three hundred soldiers surrounded Lan Gui Tower?" Rong Zhao was suddenly surprised, he glanced at Huo Yun and Sheng Qiong next to him, then looked at Zhao Mu, frowned and asked, "Shouldn't they be for me?" ”

"I don't know for whom, but I think it must have something to do with you." Zhao Mu said helplessly.

"In this way, my face is really big." Rong Zhao touched his nose, and silently wondered in his heart what he did wrong, so that Xiangnan Wangfu moved his mind?

"Okay, it's not too early, since I'm back safely, let's rest early." Zhao Mu looked at Rong Zhao's thoughtful appearance, knowing that he had listened to his paintings, and then seeing that it was indeed too late, he stood up and wanted to leave.

"Lord Wang." Rong Zhao also stood up, walked up to Zhao Mu and said, "Thank you for tonight's incident." But please ask me what I mean before you meddle in my affairs next time. ”

"Rong Shizi, you can't talk to our prince like this......" Mama Song interjected dissatisfiedly.

Zhao Mu raised his hand to stop Mama Song, looked at Rong Zhao and nodded slightly, and said: "This king understands that your purpose is to find out the murderer who destroyed the Bashu Tang family at that time, and you think that this king's goal is inconsistent with yours, so you think that this king interferes in your affairs." But Rong Zhao, don't forget that this is the capital, not Xiliang, the major families here have been entrenched for decades or even hundreds of years, and they were the masters of this city before the founding of the Great Qi. So fighting with them, you're still a little alone. And the reason why this king helped you is not only because you saved this king, but because this king doesn't want to lose you......" Zhao Mu said, his hands hanging in the air were tightly squeezed together and put back into the sleeve of the handkerchief, muttering and adding, "I don't want to lose you as a friend." ”

For some reason, Rong Zhao's heart softened inexplicably when he heard this, and a sour feeling surged up the bridge of his nose and rushed straight to his head, making him not know where he was for a while, so he didn't even react to Zhao Mu's mighty departure with people.

"Childe?" Mei Ruo and Zi Ji sent someone back, and saw that Rong Zhao was still standing there in a daze, and hurriedly came forward to ask, "Childe, are you okay?" ”

Rong Zhao came back to his senses, shook his head vigorously, and sighed: "It's okay, maybe I drank too much wine in Lan Guilou, and my head was a little unbright." Okay, it's almost dawn in the middle of the night, wash and sleep. ”

said that it was washing and sleeping, but Rong Zhao really couldn't sleep after washing and lying in bed.

Zhao Mu's words were replayed in his ears over and over again, and it didn't matter what the previous ones were, what big families, what forces from all sides, but the last sentence, every time it was played, it was like a hammer hitting his heart.

This king doesn't want to lose you!

This king doesn't want to lose you!!

This king doesn't want to lose you......

"I'll wipe ......" Rong Zhao stretched out his hand and pulled the quilt over his head to immerse himself in the boundless darkness, and scolded silently, you don't want to lose Lao Tzu? Do you want to lose you? Didn't Lao Tzu separate you from the affairs of the rivers and lakes just to let you raise your broken body at home with peace of mind? Your broken body is like a rag, and it will shatter when the wind blows, and every time I see your dead appearance, I feel my liver tremble, you know? It's really unconscionable to be inconsiderate for your own good! Zhao Mu, you conscienceless little bastard!

"Childe?" Mei Ruo heard the movement, came in from outside with a candle, and asked with concern, "You haven't fallen asleep yet?" ”

"Hmm...... Something? Rong Zhao asked in a sullen voice.

"It's almost the fifth watch, let's sleep for a while." Mei Ruo said, lifted the tent and pulled down the quilt on Rong Zhao's body with his head covered but his feet exposed, and persuaded, "Is the son still angry with King Rui?" He is also kind enough to help us, so don't be angry. ”

"Who is angry with him, I think that the medicinal wine is a little too much, and my heart is very irritable."

"What then? We don't have an antidote! Mei Ruo was worried now, thinking that the son said that the wine was an aphrodisiac medicine, if this is an antidote, unless it is a man!

"Go, go, go! What nonsense. Go to sleep, don't spare people to be quiet. Rong Zhao said, turned around and rolled the quilt covered by Mei Ruo into his arms and clamped it between his legs.

Mei Ruo watched him toss like an unreasonable child, and there was really no way, so she turned around and hugged another quilt to cover him, and retreated silently.

Rong Zhao tossed and turned on the bed and baked flatbread until dawn.

Mei Ruo didn't sleep well until he didn't sleep well at night, and he didn't dare to make noise when he got up in the morning, so he only ordered the people below to be light no matter what they did, and they were not allowed to make a noise about the son's sleep.

Contrary to Rong Zhao, after Zhao Mu said everything to Rong Zhao that he should say and should not say, especially after watching him listen to his heartfelt words as if he was scorched, his heart was very happy, and he fell asleep after going back, and it was already bright when he opened his eyes after a dreamless night.

Mama Song came in to serve, and when she saw that Rong Zhao's complexion was much better, she was very happy, because she said, "The prince slept well yesterday?" ”

"Hmm." Zhao Mu took the hot hand towel and covered it on his face, and after a while, Fang took it down and asked while wiping his hands, "What's the movement over there in the courtyard?" ”

Mama Song hurriedly replied: "There is no movement, it is very quiet." ”

"Oh, call someone to invite Rong Zhao to come over and have breakfast with this king." Zhao Mu said, got up and got out of bed.

Mama Song instructed someone to go to the hospital to invite Rong Zhao, and she took her clothes and came over to dress Zhao Muyi one by one, because she was recuperating at home, she was mainly comfortable in dressing, and her hair didn't have to be too troublesome, just simply pull a bun on the top of her head and pin it with a hosta.

The people who went to invite Rong Zhao went and came back quickly, but there was no one behind them.

"What's going on?" Zhao Mu frowned and asked.

"Back to the prince, Miss Mei Ruo said that Rong Shizi was still asleep at this time, so she didn't ask anyone to quarrel with him, so she sent the slave back."

"Still sleeping?" Zhao Mu hesitantly glanced at the bright sunshine outside the window, frowned and asked, "What time is this?" I'm afraid it's not a fraud, right? Rong Zhao's temperament made it hard for Zhao Mu to believe that he was really sleeping at home.

Mama Song thought about it for a while, and then asked the man: "Are the girls around Rong Shizi and the entourage and Qingya there?" ”

"It's all there." The man replied.

Mama Song asked again: "Are you sure?" ”

The slave was also afraid that Rong Gongzi was not sleeping but secretly ran out, so he deliberately looked at it quietly, except for the girl in purple and Miss Mei beside Rong Shizi, the other eight girls and the two men Qingya and Rong Sheng were there. There were quite a few of them, and even the big white dog slept under the eaves. ”

Mama Song turned to Zhao Mu again and said, "In this way, Rong Shizi really didn't get up." I'm afraid that what happened last night will be difficult for him to accept for a while, so the prince doesn't have to worry, let him sleep well. ”

Zhao Mu thought to himself, so he didn't say anything more.

On the same day, Rong Zhao slept in the courtyard, and Zhao Mu read in his courtyard, and the days when the two did not offend each other lasted until the next morning, and Zhao Mu still sent someone to invite Rong Zhao to go to Xiuyuan Hall for breakfast.

"My son doesn't have much appetite and doesn't want to eat breakfast, so I went back to say for my son, thank you for your kindness." Rong Zhao leaned lazily on the couch and said listlessly.

The person who came was just passing the word, knowing that this son was very important to his own prince, he didn't dare to say anything at the moment, so he agreed and turned back.

"Childe, it's not good for you to be like this." Mei Ruo persuaded from the side.

"What's wrong?" Rong Zhao snorted lazily.

Mei Ruo sighed lightly and persuaded: "After all, we are guests in the Rui Wangfu, although the prince said that he will not treat you as an outsider, but it is not a way for you to refuse others like this." ”

"Where is there so much nonsense? Ye is uncomfortable and doesn't want to talk to anyone, is it okay? Rong Zhao rolled his eyes and said unhappily.

"Okay, then it's okay for the slave to go over and explain to the prince, right?" Mei Ruo whispered.

"Explain what? What's there to explain? Don't go! Rong Zhao became more and more unhappy.

Mei Ruo sighed silently, not daring to say anything more.

Seeing him like this, Mei Ruo was very worried. Because Rong Zhao has been a jumpy character since he was a child, even if he encounters something unhappy, it is only for a while, usually he will soon find a way to make the other party unable to find the north, and it is definitely not like this now, he stuffed himself in the house and couldn't eat and sleep, and he couldn't find the north by tossing himself.

Rong Zhao tossed himself in the courtyard, and Zhao Mu was not comfortable in Xiuyuan Hall.

When I was alone before, I felt that it was very good to be quiet and quiet, and there were so many things to do every day, it was rare to be able to read a book quietly for a while. Now that it has been turned over, the room is quiet, and it seems that you can hear the sound of the white plum petals blooming on the water plant in front of the window, and Zhao Mu is holding a book in his hand but can't read it.

Throwing the book aside irritably, Zhao Mu got up from the couch and slowly walked to the door to look at the somewhat scattered white plum under the eaves of the porch.

"Lord Wang, the ginseng soup is ready, let's take two sips." Mama Song walked over from under the eaves of the porch with a small tray.

Zhao Mu frowned, glanced at the white agate bowl on the tray, endured the irritability in his heart, took a sip and put it back.

Mama Song looked at the soup splashed outside, and asked in a low voice of concern, "Why is the prince upset?" Say it, the old slave will solve it for you. ”

"It's nothing, I just feel that my body is always not improving after drinking this bowl of tonic soup, and I am in a hurry." Zhao Mu waved his hand, signaling that Mama Song could retreat without asking.

Mama Song looked at Zhao Mu with a distressed face, and stood there to stop talking.

Zhao Mu didn't bother to pay attention to it, so he took the cloak on his body and slowly walked down the steps to the gate of the courtyard.

Mama Song looked at Zhao Mu's lonely back, and finally mustered up the courage to step forward and persuade: "Lord Wang, if you really miss Rong Shizi, then go to the courtyard to take a look." ”

Zhao Mu suddenly turned to look at Mama Song and asked, "Do I seem to miss him very much?" ”

Mama Song sighed and said, "The slave has served the prince since he was a child, how can the prince not know what the prince thinks in his heart." Rong Shizi, right...... People are not bad, but they are ...... Alas! The prince consumes himself like this, and it is not good for the body to recuperate, but it is better to do whatever he wants. ”

Although what Mama Song said was even a little confused, Zhao Mu understood it. However, Zhao Mu, who understood it, was even more depressed, thinking to himself, is my mind so obvious? Is it really that obvious? Why is it that even Mama Song can see it, but that guy is like a stone?

When Zhao Muzheng was depressed and silent, Huo Yun hurriedly came in with a person: "Lord Wang, Steward Cheng of the Xiao Mansion has arrived." ”

This Steward Cheng is Mrs. Xiao's companion, and on weekdays, he specializes in running outside entertainment for Mrs. Xiao, such as giving a gift, sending a post, and if Mrs. Xiao is inconvenient to attend in the low-grade official house, Mrs. Cheng and his wife will go on their behalf, so this person is Mrs. Xiao's confidant.

"You're here, is there something wrong with Madame?" Zhao Mu asked.

"Back to the prince's words, Mrs. said that the spring banquet and orchid appreciation have been arranged, and the date will be set for tomorrow, please come to this mansion as soon as possible." Steward Cheng said, and even presented two points of purple mud gold Lishu invitation.

"So fast?" Zhao Mu asked unexpectedly.

Steward Cheng said with a smile: "Yes, because after the Spring Banquet, Rong Shizi will be arranged to study in the country, and Mrs. said that the big event of the son's study cannot be delayed." ”

Zhao Mu nodded clearly, Mrs. Xiao's arrangement is reasonable, no matter what, Rong Zhao went to study in the country to cross the clear road in front of the emperor, and he had to go, and he had to go, and if he didn't go, he had to go, because there were several people who were tied up by him this time - Rong Shuo was not the only one who guarded the frontier for the country. Visually, this spring the National Supervisory Committee is very lively.

"The prince has no other instructions for the slaves to retire first, and there are still a few invitations that need to be sent by the slaves." Steward Cheng said.

"Wait, who did your aunt invite this time?" Rong Zhao asked Butler Cheng.

"There are Mrs. Zhennanhou and the second son and the eldest girl, the wife and the second girl of the Wenhua Palace scholar Gu Qinggu, Mrs. Xie Taifu and their young master Sun and the two girls, as well as the two ladies of the left waiter and the right waiter of the Ministry of Rites, as well as the sons and girls of the two families, a total of more than 20 male guests and female guests. But in the past, it is customary that the ladies of each province will bring their sons and girls from their relatives to the banquet, after all, there are five or six less banquets in our house during the New Year, and now that the prince is sick, all the houses and families come to congratulate us and we are not good to push out. ”

Zhao Mu nodded slowly and said, "That makes sense." Go ahead and get busy. ”

Steward Cheng bowed and retreated, and Zhao Mu handed the post to Rong Zhao in his hand to Mama Song, and said, "Send this to Rong Zhao." ”

------Off topic------

Oops, these two are not worrying!

It's awkward......

Well! Today's one is really tired.

Tomorrow, Uncle Rong will open the flirting mode, everyone must be ready for tickets!
