Chapter Forty-Eight: Patience and Gentleness is the Recipe

When Du Chenliang returned to his dormitory, he was still angry, thinking that he had spent so much time on Mu Shengbai to receive the proof was just in vain, how could he swallow this breath, smashing things one after another, it was still not enough to eliminate the anger in his heart, he could only curse in his heart, and the remaining subordinates could kill Mu Shengbai as soon as possible to relieve the hatred in his heart.

"Mu Shengbai!" Du Chenliang picked up a precious teacup on the table and slammed it on the ground, only to hear a crisp sound, which became fragments on the ground.

At this moment, a eunuch hurriedly bowed his head and ran in, "Second prince, the emperor has sent you to see you." ”

He had just returned to the palace, and the news had spread so quickly.

"What does my father want me to do?" Du Chenliang had a bad premonition, his heart sank, and he didn't want to show it in front of the summoned eunuchs, so he only said lightly, making a calm and breezy attitude.

"The second prince of Qiyu, the slave doesn't know." The eunuch said respectfully.

Du Chenliang knew that he really didn't know, he had some weakness, and he didn't know what his father asked him to do, but he didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly went to the imperial study.

He didn't know the purpose of Emperor Jingyuan summoning him, but after entering, he first glanced at it and found that the crown prince was standing next to Emperor Jingyuan, with a modest smile on his face.

Du Chenliang walked over and saluted Emperor Jingyuan and Du Weizhen with a shy smile, and then asked, "Does my father have anything to do with his son?" ”

"I heard that you ran out of the palace to play again, and you haven't returned to the palace for a few days and nights?" Emperor Jing Yuan lowered his head and criticized the folds, and when he heard his greetings, he only asked casually.

"Erchen is not greedy for a day or two, and it will be changed in the future." Du Chen's conscience hung in his heart and smiled wryly.

"Father, don't say that, I heard that the emperor's brother is also busy outside the palace these days, going out early and returning late, there must be too many things to do, it should be tired." Du Weizhen said this suddenly, his face was still that gentle and humble gentleman, and his tone was very gentle, no different from usual, but it made Du Chenliang's heart skip a beat, could it be that Du Weizhen knew what he was doing in Jinling City?

He glanced at Emperor Jing Yuan nervously, and found that he didn't show any strange expressions before he stabilized slightly, but his spirit was already tense, and he smiled extremely reluctantly on his face.

"What can he do? The prince should be like a prince, and staying in the library to read a lot of books is not better than running outside the palace all day? Look at your imperial brother, which Taifu is not full of praise for him. Emperor Jing Yuan shook his head, looked at Du Chenliang seriously and said.

Du Chenliang could only nod his head, not daring to disobey Emperor Jingyuan's words, but he was thinking in his heart, it seems that this time can not be too ostentatious, otherwise if Du Weizhen is caught with something, it will not be good, thinking of this, Du Chenliang obediently admitted his mistake to Emperor Jingyuan: "It's the sons who are messing around, from this moment on, the sons must be familiar with the scriptures, take the imperial brother as an example, and will not disappoint their father." ”

"Father, the emperor's brother's determination is worthy of encouragement." Du Weizhen was next to Du Chenliang to speak.

But he didn't plan to receive this love, he had a few more resentments towards Du Weizhen in his heart, from childhood to adulthood, his father and the princes would only praise Du Weizhen for his excellence, and he and the other princes and Du Weizhen must be like weeds that are not worth mentioning.

"Since you have this determination, it is naturally very good, then you go down first, I have something important to discuss with the prince." Emperor Jing Yuan nodded and let him leave.

"Son's farewell." Du Chenliang nodded in fear, and then withdrew.

When he came out of the imperial study, the panic on his face faded, his face was gloomy, and he remembered Du Weizhen's note in his heart.

As soon as he returned to the dormitory, he summoned his men.

"His Royal Highness the Second Prince, what is the matter with summoning his subordinates?" The man asked, kneeling respectfully.

"The people who let the palace stay in Jinling City withdraw first, and recently the father is estimated to investigate the palace." Du Chen's conscience said reluctantly, and his voice was extremely cold.

Hmph, Mu Shengbai, this time it is your good luck, if you fall into the hands of this prince in the future, you will definitely be allowed to survive and not die!

"Yes." The man received the order, did not dare to delay for a moment, and hurried to Jinling City to inform those people.

There was no one hiding in the shadows and waiting for the opportunity to make a move, Mu Shengbai naturally had a few days of peace.

But life doesn't always work that way.

As usual, before dawn, Mu Shengbai took the long sword outside to practice swords, because there were some gentlemen living in the Lanwu Pavilion, Mu Shengbai was afraid that the noise would disturb them, so he gave up practicing in the courtyard and looked for a remote bamboo forest.

A long sword was in his hand, dancing constantly, the sword light spread out in the bamboo forest, Mu Shengbai's eyes lit up, and he slashed the sword towards the bamboo.

Just listen to a crisp sound, the bamboo explodes and blooms, and it looks extremely beautiful.

There was still some progress in terms of strength control, Mu Shengbai put away his sword with satisfaction, took out a handkerchief and wiped the fine sweat on his forehead.

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly heard a cry for help not far away, Mu Shengbai's heart moved, and he walked towards the source of the sound.

The person who called for help was a ragged man, surrounded by a group of unkind faces, who already had multiple sword wounds and blood dripping outside.

"Die obediently!" The men with weapons around them let out a shout and rushed towards the man.

Mu Shengbai didn't have time to think about it, so he ran up, those people were just fists and embroidered legs, and they were frightened by Mu Shengbai's few moves, and ran away with a white face.

"Thank you." The man looked at him gratefully, and then fainted due to exhaustion, so Mu Shengbai had no choice but to take the man back to the Lanwu Pavilion.

The man was in a coma for an afternoon before he woke up, and before Mu Shengbai could say anything, the boy ran in and said that someone was looking for someone outside.

Mu Shengbai was about to go out to see the situation, the door of the room was pushed open, and several people dressed as family members walked in, saw the man on the bed and was overjoyed, and said to Mu Shengbai: "Shopkeeper Mu, this person is a treacherous man, and we are about to take him back and punish him severely." ”

The person on the bed turned white, "No! That's not true! They want to kill people. ”

"I still want to talk nonsense, come on, bring him back!" The leader sneered and wanted to come and take the man away.

Mu Shengbai glanced at the frightened man on the bed, blocked them, and said expressionlessly: "Everyone, please go back, you can't let go of a single life, man, send off guests." ”

Those family members wanted to push Mu Shengbai away, but they were frightened by the sword he took out, and the leader's face turned black all of a sudden, but he didn't dare to come over, "You will regret it!" ”

He let go of the harsh words, and then walked away in a rage.
