When Zhao Mu heard this, he was immediately very disappointed, because he couldn't help but ask, "Are you moving out?" ”

Rong Zhao turned his head to look at Zhao Mu, chuckled and asked, "Does the prince mean to let me live here all the time?" I'm afraid it's not good. ”

Zhao Mu lowered his head and pondered, and he also understood in his heart that this was indeed not good, and he felt uncomfortable even living here, not to mention a willful person like Rong Zhao, if he had the strength, he would definitely buy his own house, and he would not even live in the so-called cousin's house. It's just that he is really reluctant, thinking that if he wants to see this guy in the future, he will have to ask someone to invite him, if he doesn't want to come or there are other things that he is afraid that he won't be able to invite, Zhao Mu's mood suddenly fell.

Xiao Zhengshi also felt that Rong Zhao couldn't leave at this time, not to mention anything else, they couldn't get anything to Zhao Mu alone, if there was a case, let alone what happened to Zhao Mu, the Xiao family would have to be destroyed. So he persuaded: "You have your own things to deal with on weekdays, but you don't have to move out." If you feel that it is inconvenient to live with your female dependents and Lord Rui, the old man can ask someone to clean up the Songyin Pavilion next to it and give you a place to live. As for the Guozijian side...... If you want to go later, it's not impossible, but when the day comes, you have to go and order it first, but don't let those teachers laugh at the old man There are no rules here. ”

Rong Zhao is not tired of Zhao Mu, but tired of these people of the Xiao family, Xiao Zhengshi is naturally good, but his wife, his son, his daughter and others Rong Zhao don't like it, so it is not like living here.

Zhao Mu looked at Rong Zhao's hesitant expression, and knew that he really didn't want to stay, so he didn't force it anymore, because he said: "It's really embarrassing to trouble Rong Shizi for so long." This king is already well, and it's not good to rely on people to not let him go. Since there are private matters to be dealt with, it is convenient for each to do so. After all, I will not dare to forget this life-saving grace, and in the future, Rong Shizi will have any use for this king, just open his mouth. ”

Rong Zhao smiled: "Don't worry, I won't be polite to you." ”

"Uncle?" Zhao Mu turned his head to look at Xiao Zhengshi.

Xiao Zhengshi sighed and said: "Before, Rong Shizi said that those precious medicinal materials are at least 100,000 taels of silver, to be honest, although our Xiao family has some family business, but 100,000 taels of silver is still a little tight, now you can withdraw about 80,000 taels of silver tickets in the account, you take it first, and the rest will be collected in a few days and then given to you." ”

Rong Zhao smiled and clenched his fists, and said, "Lord Xiao is polite, the silver will be deposited with you first, and I won't need it for a while." It's the same with withdrawing it when you can use it. To say that I am not afraid of your annoyance, the reputation of the Xiao family is here, and I Rong Zhao is not afraid of your old debts. ”

Xiao Zhengshi couldn't cry or laugh for a while when he heard this, thinking that his Xiao family had been based in the world for hundreds of years, and now he was commented on by a yellow-mouthed child, I really don't know if it was fortunate or unfortunate.

"Since this is the case, then this banquet is even more to be held, Rong Shizi has lived in our house for so long, and when he is leaving, he always has to say goodbye." Mrs. Xiao said with a smile.

Rong Zhao thought to himself, what happened to this woman? I wasn't so polite before, so why are you so enthusiastic about holding a banquet for me now? Is it really that he has regarded himself as a scourge, and now that the scourge is leaving, he wants to hold a wine banquet and set off fireworks to celebrate the peace of the family from now on?

"If Rong Shizi wants to gain a foothold in Shangjing in the future, contacts with various prefectures will inevitably be indispensable. Speaking of which, we really want to hold a banquet for him, but the reason doesn't need to be too obvious, and it's not a good thing for young people to hold too high, and the balance needs to be carefully grasped. Well...... I'll leave that to Madame. Xiao Zhengshi muttered.

Mrs. Xiao hurriedly smiled: "Don't worry, master, the concubine body has already been thought about." The weather has warmed up these days, the orchids in the flower room have bloomed several plants, among which there are two pots of precious varieties, which are cultivated and bloomed in the capital by our family, a few days ago to eat New Year's wine, several ladies and wives said to come to enjoy the orchids, this is not an excellent opportunity? By the way, I also invited a few good sons and daughters, and it was not an elegant thing to chant poems with Rong Shizi? ”

"Well, excellent." Xiao Zhengshi twisted his beard and praised.

"The master said okay, then the concubine will go back and ask someone to write a post." Mrs. Xiao said with a smile.

"Yes, Madame has always done things properly. The old man can rest assured. Xiao Zhengshi nodded with satisfaction.

Rong Zhao glanced at Zhao Mu secretly, sighed silently, and thought to himself that Xiao Zhengshi was upright and open-minded, so naturally there would be no conspiracy, but Mrs. Xiao was a person...... No matter how you look at it, she doesn't feel like a simple warm-hearted person, she didn't like herself a while ago, and now she is so enthusiastic, there must be a plot in it.

However, some things should be faced, sometimes you know that there is a hole in front of you but you still have to move forward, whether you jump over and clean your feet or step on the mud to get dirty and change your boots or whatever, that is a matter of later. However, at that time, it was time to get by.

So Rong Zhao got up and bowed to Mrs. Xiao: "Then Rong Zhao thanked Mrs. first." ”

Mrs. Xiao said with a smile: "Gongzi Rong is polite, you are a student of our master, and you can be regarded as the child of your own nephews and nephews, your parents are not in the capital, and these things should be handled by us." ”

"Being able to get the love of Lord Xiao and Mrs. Xiao, Rong Zhao is very frightened." Rong Zhao said in an official tone, but he silently slandered in his heart, and he didn't know what this woman was thinking.

"Okay, this matter is settled, Gongzi Rong will stay at home for a few more days, and it will not be too late to return to your cousin's house after the banquet." Mrs. Xiao said with a smile.

"That's not necessary, my cousin's house is in the capital, and my wife has arranged it, just call someone over and say it, Rong Zhao will naturally come over early in the morning." Rong Zhao arched his hand.

"And what do you mean?" Mrs. Xiao asked curiously.

Rong Zhao arched his hand and said: "The student's meaning is to leave and move out tomorrow, after all, my cousin often communicates with my mother from time to time, and if I don't go for a long time, my mother will definitely be very worried." ”

Xiao Zhengshi nodded and said, "You are also filial piety, so we won't keep you more." ”

"Thank you, Lord and Madame, for making it happen." Rong Zhao bowed again.

Since the matter has been discussed, Xiao Zhengshi said to his wife that he is going to prepare a family banquet tonight, firstly, to thank Rong Shizi for his hard work for a while, and secondly, Rong Shizi has been at home for so long, and we have not had a formal family banquet.

Xiao Zhengshi and his wife didn't stay long, and left after discussing the matter.

Hearing that Xuezhai was quiet for a while, Mei Ruo and the others were busy packing up Rong Zhao's things, and only Rong Zhao and Zhao Mu were left in the room.

Since Rong Zhao insisted on moving out and Xiao Zhengshi agreed, Zhao Mu has been leaning on the couch with his eyes closed and pretending to sleep, and he didn't even raise his eyelids when Xiao Zhengshi and his wife left. Rong Zhao thought he was asleep, so he got up and went to get his fox fur cloak and put it on his body and was about to go back to his room, but Zhao Mu suddenly opened his eyes.

"Oh, you're not asleep, are you? Scared me. Rong Zhao was still lightly afraid of waking him up, but at this time, seeing his eyes blazing, he didn't have the slightest sleepiness at all, so he turned around and sat down on the chair, stretched out his hand to grab an orange and peeled it for himself.

"What's the matter with you, leaving in such a hurry?" Zhao Mu asked.

"Actually, it doesn't really matter. That's it......" Rong Zhao said, stuffing two petals of oranges into his mouth.

This half sentence almost made Zhao Mu angry, there is nothing important, you have to go? Are you clearly disgusted with this king? This king is so annoying?!

Rong Zhao swallowed the orange and continued: "Lord Wang, the poison in your body is clear, but the person who poisoned it still hasn't been found!" With Liao's mother-in-law and Qingya's half-grown son, how could they do such a vicious thing? Who refined the poison, and what channel did it send to the Liao family and Qingya? Don't you expect the Criminal Department to really find out about these things, right? ”

As soon as Zhao Mu heard this, his heart began to revive again, thinking that he was in a hurry to find out the real murderer for himself. The smile in his eyes came back for a while, and he said, "You don't have to worry, I've already called someone to check." ”

"You?" Rong Zhao's eyes widened in surprise, "When did you call someone to check?" You're still seeing someone else behind my back these days? How did I not know?! ”

Zhao Mu chuckled and said, "I haven't seen anyone else, but although I am sick in bed and can't move, my people will never sit still." Rest assured, news will come soon. ”

Rong Zhao thought about it, he is the prince! How can there not be many people around who can be used!

Zhao Mu looked at Rong Zhao stuffing oranges into his mouth a little sullenly, his mood became better and better, and he chuckled: "Also, your cousin Ye Shenzhi is not reliable, a businessman is very profitable, he clings to Qian Qianzhong of the household department for profit, and Qian Qianzhong is a member of the Zhou family." So it's not a long-term solution for you to go to Ye Shenzhi's house to live. ”

"But wouldn't I be more embarrassed in the Xiao family? Actually, I wanted to buy a house for myself, but I was in too much of a hurry and didn't have a suitable one. Rong Zhao said, grabbed another orange and began to peel it

Zhao Mu smiled and said: "It's not difficult for you to buy a house by yourself, it's not difficult, just after the New Year, I'm afraid there are not many people who sell houses, wait for two months, there are many good houses in the capital that will be sold, I'm not afraid that you won't be dazzled." When the time comes, I'll let Huo Yun take you to pick it up, why are you in such a hurry to move out. ”

"Lord Wang, have you ever tasted the feeling of staying in someone's house when you are disgusted and dead-faced?" Rong Zhao didn't know how many times he put the orange petals in his mouth, letting the sweet juice soak his taste buds.

Zhao Mu was asked, and suddenly understood that Rong Zhao didn't think that he was so heartless on the surface, he actually knew the superiority of the Xiao family as a nobleman and the discrimination against him, and the reason why he was so sneering and sneering at everyone in the Xiao family and himself every day was actually his own way of resisting. This man seems to care about nothing on the surface, but in fact has an extremely delicate and sensitive heart.

"Otherwise, let's go back to the palace together tomorrow." Zhao Mu groaned.

"Back to the palace?" Rong Zhao's eyes lit up when he heard this, he actually preferred to go to King Rui's Mansion than to go to Ye Shen's house. In such a big palace, he only needs to look at Zhao Mu's face alone, and Zhao Mu is a person...... Hehe, now it's good if he doesn't look at his face, so living in the Rui Wang's Mansion is equivalent to his own paradise, and there is a large group of minions to call.

"That's it." Zhao Mu was attracted by the light in Rong Zhao's eyes, and stared at him for a while and was reluctant to look away.

Rong Zhao was a little embarrassed to be stared at, so he sent half an orange in his hand to Zhao Mu: "Do you want to eat?" ”

Zhao Mu smiled and shook his head: "I don't eat." ”

"If you don't eat, what are you staring at me all the time?" Rong Zhao rolled his eyes, pressed half an orange directly into his mouth, and then subconsciously raised his chin in order to prevent the juice of the orange from flowing out of the corner of his mouth.

Zhao Mu stared at him until he swallowed half an orange, and then Fang shouted: "Rong Zhao? ”

"Huh?" Rong Zhao looked at Zhao Mu in wonder, wondering if this person had been poisoned and left sequelae? How weird.

"How old are you, this year?" Zhao Mu asked.

"Seventeen, seventeen. What's wrong? Rong Zhao asked funny.

"Seventeen...... This king remembers that when I was seventeen, the Adam's apple was already obvious, why didn't you? Zhao Mu muttered to himself.

"Ugh! cough, cough, cough, cough, ......cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough,

"What's wrong with Childe?" Mei Ruo outside heard Rong Zhao coughing so badly, and hurriedly came in to ask.

Rong Zhao's coughing face was red and speechless for a while, Zhao Mu had to say for him: "I just choked on eating oranges, you can quickly pour him a glass of water." ”

"Oh, good!" Mei Ruo hurriedly poured a glass of warm boiled water and sent it to Rong Zhao, and smiled helplessly: "Such a big person, why is there a hurry to eat an orange." ”

Rong Zhao's mind turned back and forth when he coughed, and he wanted to touch the matter and pretend not to hear it, but he felt that it was too cowardly, with Zhao Mu's temperament, he would definitely ask about it in the future, but how to say it? Sue sù that he is actually a woman? Stop it!

After thinking about it, Rong Zhao decided to advance as retreat, so he took advantage of the fact that he gradually calmed down his breathing, kept his face peachy, and his eyes were watery, turned his head to look at Zhao Mu and asked, "Lord Wang, what do you mean by being so concerned about whether I have an Adam's apple?" ”

Because of the violent coughing, Rong Zhao's voice was hoarse, and his voice seemed to be another person, with an unintentional magnetism, coupled with his current appearance, Zhao Mu's heart tightened suddenly, but his face was silent, and he only smiled faintly: "It's just that you care, you don't have to react so much." ”

"Just now, the slave maid heard the lively chatting between the son and the prince outside, so it turned out that he was talking about this." Mei Ruo chuckled and took the teacup that Rong Zhao had drunk, and smiled at Zhao Mu: "Our son-in-law had a serious illness when he was five years old, and he picked up a life in vain, but his body has been weak, and our marquis and wife were distressed, so they asked people to collect some tonic medicine to replenish the son's body, but I didn't know that some tonic pills could not be eaten indiscriminately, so our son-in-law's physical development was a little retarded." ”

Zhao Mu didn't dwell on this matter anymore, and only smiled: "It's nothing, this king just asked casually, and your son-in-law's cousin is too excited." ”

Rong Zhao coughed twice, interrupted the conversation between Mei Ruo and Zhao Mu, and said, "What, although the prince is in excellent spirits today, he still has to rest well when he recovers from a serious illness." Later, Mrs. Xiao will also prepare a family banquet, presumably the prince can't hide here, so it's better to take care of her spirit at this time, otherwise if you see your cousin for a while, Miss Xiao should be distressed again. ”

Zhao Mu smiled and said: "After a family banquet, this king naturally doesn't want to let Gongzi Rong go alone." Besides, this king will take this opportunity to give a good salute to his son. ”

"Respect me? Even if you are in this state, you can also toast? Stop it! Rong Zhao said, flicked his sleeves and stood up, took two steps out and looked back at Zhao Mu, and said with a smile, "At the family banquet in the evening, you just have to appease your mistress and don't let her entangle." ”

"She's pestering you?" Zhao Mu laughed sullenly, "Could it be that Cousin Yunxin has a heart for Rong Gongzi?" ”

"I beg you, you can't afford this kind of glamorous blessing, you can slowly take it yourself, and say goodbye." After Rong Zhao finished speaking, he left without looking back.

Mrs. Xiao set up the family banquet in the Songyin Pavilion in the back garden, the reason is naturally to facilitate Zhao Mu, a sick and weak person.

Rong Zhao changed into a frost-white four-fold moire brocade robe, with a bean blue palace silk and Tian Pisces jade pendant around his waist, because he was obsessed with a weak crown, his long hair was tied up at will and tied with a cyan palace silk, in order to show his identity, four finger-sized pearls fell on the palace silk. is already handsome, coupled with Mei Ruo's careful dressing, Rong Shizi under the candlelight is simply a jade-faced gentleman with a peerless elegance. casually stopped there, and the maids of the Xiao Mansion were fascinated one by one.

Zhao Mu came over in a warm sedan chair, although it was only a few steps, but Mrs. Xiao would not let him go by himself, the warm sedan chair went from this door to that door, and when he got off the warm sedan chair, someone naturally stepped forward to help him to the most comfortable couch, and then used several large pillows to surround people.

"Cousin." Xiao Yunxin got up and leaned over as soon as Zhao Mu entered the door, but a few strong women helped Zhao Mu to the couch, and she couldn't intervene, so she went to bring a hot tea to Zhao Mu.

Zhao Mu smiled slightly and said, "Thank you, cousin." Let it go, I just drank the tonic soup when I came out. ”

"Oh." Xiao Yunxin put the teacup on the small table next to her, and said in a low voice: "Cousin, the matter of lotus seed soup last time was not good for me......

Zhao Mu waved his hand and interrupted Xiao Yunxin's words: "There is no need to mention the past, I know that the bowl of lotus seed soup was done by your nurse, and you were also kept in the dark." ”

Xiao Yunxin nodded again and again when she heard this, then turned around and found Rong Zhao to look at it twice, and stopped talking.

Zhao Mu naturally knew her thoughts, because she said: "Gongzi Rong was also anxious about my body at that time, and said a few unpleasant words. For the sake of him staying up so many nights for me, don't worry about it. ”

"I know! Don't worry, cousin, I don't care. Xiao Yunxin hurriedly explained, "I know that Rong Gongzi is very hard, and he said that I, not letting me go to see my cousin is also for my cousin's good." ”

"Well, it's good that you know." Zhao Mu nodded slowly, looking up at Rong Zhao sitting in the other corner and Xiao Xun who was chatting with Rong Zhao.

In fact, as long as Rong Zhao is willing, he can become friends with anyone. Just like talking about jade and calligraphy and painting with Xiao Xun at this time, the two of them talked very speculatively. Of course, Rong Zhao did this for a reason, before Zhao Mu suddenly said that he didn't have an Adam's apple, which scared him half to death, so he had already made up his mind not to sit with Zhao Mu at this dinner, it was best to stay away from him, and I also hoped that Xiao Yunxin would be entangled with him, don't give him a chance to provoke himself, in case he said in front of so many people: Rong Zhao, why do I think you look beautiful like a flower and look like a girl, so do you want to live?

However, the more he didn't look at Zhao Mu, the more Zhao Mu stared at him. When the maids were serving, Xiao Xun was already unable to sit still by Zhao Mu, so he asked Rong Zhao: "Rong Shizi, why does King Rui always look at us?" Is it something on my face? ”

Rong Zhao almost burst out laughing when he heard this, but he still couldn't help but smile and looked at Xiao Xun's face carefully with a serious face, and raised his hand to pick up the golden palace silk that tied his hair bun and put it behind him, and said seriously: "Xiao Gongzi is dignified, there is no trace of impropriety. The prince has been looking at you, probably praising you in his heart for being well-dressed tonight. ”

Xiao Xun heard this, and nodded with a smile towards Zhao Mu opposite, if it wasn't for Xiao Yunxin talking to Zhao Mu over there, he probably would have to go over and thank you in person.

Fortunately, the maids were very neat, and it didn't take long for all kinds of dried fruits, snacks and tea to be ready, and the brass pot burning red charcoal was served, and the mutton boiled in it was already fragrant, and Xiao Zhengshi and his wife also brought their eldest son Xiao Heng and eldest daughter-in-law He into the door.

Xiao Xun, Xiao Yunxin and Rong Zhao all got up to greet each other, so Zhao Mu sat alone and did not move.

"Alright, alright! There are no outsiders tonight, so let's all take a seat. Xiao Zhengshi smiled and sat down on the main seat, and then turned his head to Zhao Mu: "Zilin, you sit next to your uncle." ”

Xiao Yunxin was busy supporting Zhao Mu, but Zhao Mu waved his hand and smiled: "Don't worry, cousin, I can go by myself now." As he spoke, he slowly got up and walked to Xiao Zhengshi's left hand side and sat down, and pointed to the seat next to him and called Rong Zhao: "Rong Zhao, you sit here." ”

"You don't have to be polite, I'll just sit here." Rong Zhao sat opposite Zhao Mu and refused to go over next to Xiao Xun.

Zhao Mu smiled and said, "Although tonight is a family banquet, my uncle is mainly thanking you for this king." If you don't sit down, will you turn around when this king toasts you? ”

"Eating at this table, where do you need to be so polite?" Rong Zhao's ass seemed to be glued to the chair, and he couldn't say anything.

Zhao Mu looked at him with a smile, his eyes were sly, as if he had something to say in his mouth.

Rong Zhao couldn't help but feel weak for a while when he stared at him like this, Xiao Zhengshi, who was sitting on the main seat, couldn't stand it anymore, and hurriedly persuaded: "Rong Shizi, Lord Rui doesn't mean anything, I just want to personally toast you with a glass to express my gratitude." Don't excuse yourself, come and sit down. ”

Under the double pressure of Zhao Mu and Xiao Zhengshi, Rong Zhao stared at Xiao Yunxin's cold gaze and got up and walked to Zhao Mu's side, and after bowing slightly to thank Xiao Zhengshi, he sat down.
