Although the summer sun has not yet sunset, it is already raging on the noble human race, perhaps this temperature is only a ray of sunshine for the toiling masses, but it is an irresistible heat for the royal nobles.

Twelve-year-old Zhu Youxiao stood under the crape myrtle tree sweating profusely, staring at a wooden cart the size of a square bench on the ground, and muttered to himself: "Spray water, spray water." ”

Said to be a wooden car, in fact, it was like a wooden box with four small wheels, slowly rolling under the tree, the small round hole in the front of the car shot a thin water arrow, Zhu Youxiao jumped up and cheered: "yes, it's successful, automatic water hose car." Ha ha. ”

Before he could clapp, the water arrow suddenly stopped, and water spilled out from all around the box, and after a few seconds, the box fell to the ground in pieces, becoming a pile of planks.

Zhu Youxiao was stunned, stomped on the plank a few times in frustration, and then sat on the ground, his eyes were red, and he was almost in tears, this thing took him more than ten days, it can be described as painstaking and painstaking, and now the reward for him is a pile of rotten wood.

A shadow stood in front of him, Zhu Youxiao raised his head hatefully, Liu Wei bowed and saluted: "Little prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to see you." ”

Zhu Youxiao stood up, slowly followed behind Liu Wei, reluctantly glanced at the water dragon cart that was already rotten wood, and turned his head away.

In Li Xuanzhi's hall, Ren Hongfei had already taken one in one hand, and took Li Xuanzhi's children to Zhu Changluo to ask for peace, and Li Xuanzhi instructed the palace maid who was responsible for taking care of the children's daily life: "Go and inform the Shang Shan Supervisor that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is having lunch here, and tell them to hurry up and prepare." The two palace maids were ordered to go out.

The chubby Zhu Huiyuan jumped into Zhu Changluo's arms and coquettishly, and Zhu Youmo, who looked bored, said: "Old Five, are you in a hurry to drag me here just to eat?" ”

Ren Hongfei said with a smile: "Yes, fourth brother, today's dinner party, the eldest brother will come later." ”

Zhu Youmo was stunned: "The boss is also here today?" That's not very common. ”

Ren Hongfei then smiled: "Not only today, but the eldest brother will live here in the future." ”

Zhu Youmo and Zhu Huiyuan were stunned for a moment, and then said happily: "Great, that's so lively, I want the boss to make me a windmill." ”

Zhu Huiyuan pouted: "Idiot, what's so fun about the windmill, I want the boss to make me a wooden doll that can walk." ”

As he was talking, Liu Wei pushed open the door, and Zhu Youxiao walked in, kneeling and saluting: "Erchen greets Daddy, and Aunt Li greets." ”

Zhu Changluo said: "Get up." ”

Zhu Youxiao got up and said happily: "Old Five, are you here too?" ”

Looking at Zhu Youxiao, who was revealing his true feelings, Ren Hongfei felt a lot of guilt, the eldest son of the emperor loved him the most among his brothers and sisters, but now he couldn't regret it, Ren Hongfei stepped forward with a smile and took Zhu Youxiao's hand: "Big brother, I will live here in the future, you can come too, how lively our brothers are together." ”

Zhu Youxiao said with a smile: "I'm afraid that my mother won't agree." ”

Ren Hongfei's guilt is even deeper, I don't know how this brother accepts the fact that his mother was beaten to death, although it was not his hand, but the idea was his idea, it can be said that Wang Cairen died directly in his hands.

Zhu Changluo said: "Your mother has something to go out for, and you can come back after a while, so you will live here with Aunt Li temporarily." ”

Zhu Youxiao was stunned: "My mother didn't mention going out this morning, where did you go?" ”

Zhu Changluo's face was blank: "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, you will live here in the future and get along well with your younger brothers and sisters." ”

Zhu Youxiao hurriedly shut up in fright, and Li Xuanzhi smiled: "Okay, don't be a boss, scare the children." ”

The door was suddenly pushed open, and the two palace maids walked in with the two food boxes they had brought from the Shang Diet Supervisor, and placed the dishes on the round table one by one.

Sesame oil chicken, sweet and sour lotus root slices, steamed goose, lychee pork, water chestnut squirt, boiled fresh gizzard liver, a large plate of flower rolls, a stack of hanging oven baked cakes, Ren Hongfei and Zhu Youxiao's saliva is about to drip down, Zhu Youmo and Zhu Huiyuan look at ease, although Zhu Youxiao is the eldest son, but his mother Wang Cairen is not favored, and ordinary people can't eat such delicious dishes.

Zhu Changluo got off the first chopsticks and said, "You guys eat." ”

The chopsticks in the hands of Ren Hongfei and Zhu Youxiao immediately flew up, and Zhu Youmo quickly followed when he saw the rise, only Zhu Huiyuan's mouth was flattened: "It's not promising." ”

The three of them didn't bother to pay attention to her, and in a moment they gobbled up half of each plate, shouting happily, Zhu Changluo watched a few children playing, and his mood couldn't help but calm down a lot, the corners of his mouth showed a slight smile, Zhu Huiyuan said: "Let's eat, let's sing a song." ”

Li Xuanzhi said: "What kind of song are you singing while eating?" ”

Zhu Huiyuan said: "If I would have sung it myself, I haven't heard a single song of the old five singing." ”

Li Xuanzhi said angrily: "Don't be the fifth old, it's not big or small, it's called the fifth brother." ”

At this moment, it is estimated that Zhu Changluo is the happiest time in a few years, and asked with a smile: "You will sing?" ”

Zhu Youxiao said: "It's good to sing." ”

Zhu Changluo smiled: "Then sing one." Li Xuanzhi saw that Zhu Changluo was very interested, so he no longer stopped him.

Ren Hongfei got down from the stool, picked up a square scarf, wiped his mouth and said, "Okay, I'll sing one, I wish my father and mother love and love each other and grow old together." ”

The corners of Zhu Changluo's mouth began to smile again, and Li Xuanzhi was already smiling, and he was busy covering it with a square scarf.

Ren Hongfei took a sip of tea, cleared his throat, and sang loudly:

Yesterday was like the flowing water that was far away from me, and today my heart is troubled.

Draw the knife and cut off the water, the water is more flowing, raise a glass to eliminate sorrow, the Ming Dynasty breeze is drifting,

There is only a newcomer laughing, who hears the old man crying, love is so hard,

Do you want to ask someone to understand or pretend to be confused, know more and know less and it is difficult to be content,

It seems to be an era when mandarin ducks and butterflies should not be, but who can get rid of the sorrow of the world,

The mandarin ducks and butterflies in the world of flowers and flowers are already upside down in the world, so why bother to go to the sky, it is better to sleep gently together.

After singing the song, everyone in the room fell silent, and Zhu Changluo quietly held Li Xuanshi's hand from below, and his true feelings made Li Xuanzhi ecstatic.

After a while, Zhu Huiyuan shouted and startled everyone, Zhu Huiyuan jumped off the stool and ran to Ren Hongfei's side to hug him, shouting: "It's so good, I want to marry you, and I want you to sing to me every day." ”

Zhu Changluo couldn't cry or laugh, Zhu Youxiao covered his mouth and snickered, Zhu Youmo was stunned and muttered to himself: "I am now called the fifth brother, if Hui Yuan marries him, it will be my brother-in-law, should I call him my brother or brother-in-law." "I really can't figure it out, and I can't help but feel very distressed.

Li Xuanzhi said angrily: "Hui Yuan, don't mess around, he is your brother." Hurry back and sit down to eat. ”

Zhu Huiyuan pursed her lips and returned to her seat with an unhappy expression.

Li Xuanzhi smiled at Zhu Changluo and said, "How is it sung by the inspection." ”

Zhu Changluo nodded: "Very good." ”

Li Xuanzhi said: "What do you think we should reward?" ”

Zhu Changluo lowered his head and pondered, Ren Hongfei's eyes rolled, and he hurriedly said: "Please father and mother reward the children to play around with their brothers and sisters, and the guards must not stop them." ”

Zhu Changluo was stunned and said with a smile: "Okay, but you can only play and don't cause trouble, otherwise you will not only be grounded, but you will also be punished." ”

The four children jumped up and cheered loudly, Zhu Changluo and Li Xuanzhi smiled at each other, but Zhu Changluo didn't know that he had made a huge mistake, which was big enough to make him regret it for the rest of his life.
