Ember Palace, in the upper study.

Tang Ruoxu was standing below and replying.

The envoy has been away for many days, he has been calling himself sick, and he has not come to the court until today, so Tang Xunde naturally wants to ask him a few more words.

"Can you handle the affairs of the Situ family?"

Tang Xunde didn't raise his eyes, just looked at the fold in his hand and lightly stroked the tiger's whiskers.

This is not a trivial statement, but it also carries a little blame.

He didn't come to the court for Qin Changhuan's affairs for a few days, this is not what the dignified Prince Dongyan should do.

The fact that he endured today and did not get angry in front of his ministers was already the greatest forgiveness for him.

Fortunately, Tang Ruoxu knew how to measure and bowed down to reply seriously.

"Back to my father, about Situ Yufeng, someone has been found to blame, don't worry, Lord Situ will definitely not find any reason to refute."

The emperor personally affirmed something, who can say a word?

Besides, today's Situ family is really different from the past.

If it is said that Situ Bai used to be in power, now he is a holiday rat.

Although not everyone shouted and beaten, after Situ Yufeng committed the incident, the Situ family was already gone.

Not to mention anything that is crowded.

Tang Xunde snorted lightly, but he was also full of anger and extremely majestic.

"It's a pretty good thing."

If it doesn't work sooner, the envoy is still there, and it won't be done later, I'm afraid that the Situ family will come back, and this time is just right.

Sure enough, this prince is still very capable.

"What about you?"

Finally, Emperor Tang Xunde put down the fold that he had been looking at for a long time.

He raised his hand and rubbed the corners of his eyes, and leaned back as lazily as he could.

looked like he was careless, squinting slightly, but there was always a hint of looking at Tang Ruoxu in his eyes, looking carefully.

Tang Ruoxu still bent down respectfully.

In front of his father, he may just be a child with high hopes.

But in front of the emperor, he was just a courtier.

It's just a courtier, and the most important thing to do is to keep your head open.

"It's because the sons don't know how to take care of the overall situation, and they delay the court, so they care about some children's private affairs, and they won't be in the future."

The good thing about him is that he does what he says.

Tang Xunde knows.

Since he agreed, he must have figured it out in the past few days.

Holding his forehead with one hand, Tang Xunde slowly closed his eyes, and his breath was like a gossamer.

"Let's get out."

He didn't want to say more about these little things, after all, he was the prince of Dongshen, and he didn't need to be told in his ear from time to time.

If he had told him too much, wouldn't he have to ask him about everything in the future?

Where is this the quality that a dignified prince should have?

Tang Ruoxu bowed and retreated a few steps before turning around and leaving.

Outside the study, Lin Zhi was waiting for him.

As if for something.

After walking away, he asked Lin Zhi to speak.

"But it has something to do with Stuart?"

In the past few days, the Situ family has not been at ease at all.

Especially Szeto Bo.

Situ Yufeng was in prison, although he was more domineering, but in the end he was still just a sinner, and most of the jailers ignored him.

But Situ Bai always causes trouble everywhere.

I heard that my arm was injured, but I still want to fish in the country.

It's just that he has no king's law, taking the honor and favor given to him by Tang Xunde in the past, and squandering it everywhere.

Although such a person is no longer a threat, it is really difficult to stay for a long time.

Lin Zhi deliberately glanced at it, and said with a tense face.

"In the afternoon, Situ Bai is going to enter the palace, I'm afraid he is going to the queen's palace."

Tang Ruoxu's eyes widened, and uneasiness flashed in his eyes.

Qin Changhuan abolished the queen's hands and feet, and this news was known to him and the emperor except for the people in Fengyi Palace.

As the outside world knows, it's just that the queen was confined to the palace and deposed from her position, but she is still fine.

Situ Bai entered the palace at this time, didn't he want to join forces with him again?

If the news of the queen's injury spreads, I don't know if it's good or bad.

His footsteps suddenly paused, and he walked briskly in the other direction.

Lin Zhi looked at him with a wrong face, as if something was about to happen.

"Your Highness, where are we going?"

Tang Ruoxu's expression was hurried, he only looked ahead, his thin lips were pursed, and his sharp eyes indicated that something big had happened.

"Go to the Spirit Palace."

Lin Zhi was thoughtful, but he could only keep up.

The queen was grounded, and Tang Ruoling naturally couldn't see it, so she was depressed in the Lingcui Palace all day long.

If Qin Changhuan doesn't leave, maybe he can still explain a thing or two.

But now if she knew that it was Tang Ruoxu and Qin Changhuan who designed to imprison the queen in the palace, she didn't know what to do.

Fortunately, she didn't know anything, and she just felt that the queen had made a mistake and was punished by the emperor.

For so many days, he couldn't bear to see her.

She is the purest place in this palace, if she knows the twists and turns, she may be scared to death.

"Your Highness, the princess has started to eat on time in the past two days, it should be a good thing."

Lin Zhixu really couldn't bear to look at his solemn face, and felt that he was worried, so he said words of relief.

Tang Ruoxu nodded slightly.

"When you arrive at the Spirit Pure Palace, you will be waiting outside."

Tang Ruoxu said.

Lin Zhi has followed him for so many years, and he has long been able to gain insight into his inner emotions.

It's just that he occasionally wants to deal with some things alone.

A quarter of an hour later, he arrived at the Lingcui Palace.

Since entering the Lingcui Palace, the emperor has already ordered a batch of palace maids around Tang Ruoling to be replaced.

The purpose is also to hide from her, so that she does not know anything.

In the distance, Tang Ruoling's new personal palace maid Diecui stepped forward.

Blessed with a blessed body, she smiled coquettishly.

"Your Highness, Her Royal Highness the Princess is taking a nap."

Tang Ruoxu frowned, puzzled in his eyes.

It's not yet lunchtime, so why do you sleep?

With one hand behind his back, he sighed softly and asked a few questions.

Diecui said, "The princess has eaten on time in the past two days, but she doesn't eat much, but it's much better than the previous days." The rest is nothing. ”

Tang Ruoxu lowered his head and looked at the huge bluestone paved road of the Lingcui Palace, but it was so desolate and cold at the moment.

It's the beginning of summer, and it's a flower-like day.

But Tang Ruoling wanted to take a nap at this hour.

Thinking about it, he also blamed himself a lot, and his heart was like being splashed with oil and burned in a panic.

"I'll take a look."

He said.

Diecui walked ahead and led her to the dormitory of the main hall.

Before he got closer, Tang Ruoxu saw Tang Ruoling lying on the floor.

After not seeing her for more than ten days, she has lost a lot of weight.

When I was growing my body, I didn't eat much, so how could I do this?

After thinking for a while, Tang Ruoxu thought about it.

"Diecui, you go and prepare a few more dishes that the princess likes to eat, and then prepare a few plates of pastries, I will eat here at night."

As soon as Diecui heard this, he immediately bent his knees happily and then rushed out.

The prince cares about his sister, and everyone knows it.

If he can accompany Tang Ruoling to dinner, maybe Tang Ruoling can untie the knot and eat more.

These days, not to mention the concubines who often came to visit the princess in the past.

Even cats and dogs didn't come to the door.

If the emperor doesn't come to see the princess, the Lingcui Palace is naturally full of people.

But now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is down, she can also go out and publicize it.

After all, Tang Ruoling is Her Royal Highness the princess of Dongyan, no matter how she is reprimanded, she is also a princess, this can't be changed!

In the dormitory, Tang Ruoxu sat on the edge of the collapse.

Seeing that Tang Ruoling was asleep, there seemed to be tears in the corners of his eyes.

He reached out and wiped her off.

As soon as he withdrew his hand, Tang Ruoling woke up.

When I saw him, I was also a little surprised.

"Third brother?"

This question seems to wonder why he came, or why he came.

Tang Ruoxu's eyebrows were crooked, his eyes were extremely gentle, and he pinched her face.

"What? Don't you want the third brother to come and see you? ”

As he spoke, he hung his head slightly sadly, and between his breaths, he showed exhaustion.

"In the past few days, I haven't felt well, Changhuan is gone......"

There is no need to say anything superfluous.

Of course, Tang Ruoling understood what kind of feelings he had for Qin Changhuan, and he must be sad if the other party left.

She moved slightly, only to feel tired and her eyelids were heavy, but she didn't want to lie down anymore.

Tang Ruoxu hurriedly stretched out his hand and helped her slowly lean on the edge of the collapse.

Seeing that she was seated and tired, he got up and poured her a glass of water.

"Even if you are sad, you shouldn't be embarrassed about yourself. I look at you, you're about to get seriously ill. ”

There was a hint of concern and reproach in his tone.

At this moment, such words are a great encouragement for Tang Ruoling.

For some reason, as soon as my eyes were hot, tears slid down my rosy cheeks.

I was drinking water, but I couldn't get it into the teacup so that people couldn't see it.

At this moment, Tang Ruoxu was really distressed, and even blamed himself.

He may not be a completely cold-hearted emperor, but he is occasionally moved.

"Ruoling, if you raise your body well, the queen mother can stay in the palace safely."

Tang Ruoling couldn't drink it anymore, so he only put the teacup on the small table on the side of the collapse and wiped his tears with his hands.

"Third brother, what's the use of you persuading me?"

She looked up again, and her eyes were harder.

It's like a door that won't open anymore and won't break down from disrepair.

Tang Ruoling has a bit of tenacity in his heart, and Tang Ruoxu knows this very well.

It's just that he never thought that such a scheming couple would give birth to such an innocent child.

He didn't want to persuade her more, maybe he had to wait for her to figure it out one day.

Getting up, he walked to the table not far away and sat down, and poured himself a cup of tea.

"In the past few days, I heard that the eldest brother hasn't come to see you?"

Tang Ruoling's eyes were full of disdain, but he didn't say anything excessive.

"He has always disliked me, and it is only right that he does not come now, and besides, I don't like him to come."

The brothers and sisters born to a mother are so alienated.

"In the evening, I will stay, and you will accompany me to relieve the loneliness in my heart, these days, she is gone, I am ......"

As he spoke, he suddenly laughed at himself.

was made dark by an unhappened relationship, and it may be said that the people will laugh at it.

However, there is another important reason why he is staying today.

Situ Bai can't find the queen, he must come to find Tang Ruoling, so it's just right for him to stay here.
