Sure enough, after Zeng Rong asked, Zhu Xu proudly replied to her four words, "My son." ”

Crisp, neat.

Zeng Rong pursed her lips, she didn't think that the smile on Zhu Heng's face was due to the emperor, there were more princes in the palace, but who was as good as Zhu Heng's smile?

Zeng Rong's small movements were discovered by Zhu Xu's afterglow, Zhu Xu stood still and squinted at Zeng Rong, "What do you mean?" ”

"Back to the emperor, the lower officials have never seen the emperor smile so much, the emperor has always been very stingy with his smile." Zeng Rong didn't dare to tell the truth.

But Zhu Xu didn't like to hear this, gave her a contemptuous look, and then strode forward again.

Zeng Rong didn't follow anymore, he stood still and pondered whether to go back to see Zhu Heng accompany him to have dinner for his birthday or go back to the Inner Court Bureau to sort out the copywriting, when he was hesitating, the emperor saw that there was no one around, and gave an order to the eunuch on the side, and then glanced at Chang Dezi, who beckoned to Zeng Rong.

Zeng Rong had to follow forward and followed him into Qianning Palace, and the emperor didn't say a word to her again along the way.

However, when Liang Shiguan saw Zeng Rong, he thought that the Inner Court Bureau had something to look for her, and just walked to Zeng Rong's side, he was sent to the right wing room by Chang Dezi, and several eunuchs and palace maids in the outer study were also cleaned out by Chang Dezi.

During this period, the emperor kept his face dark, did not say a word, and after entering the room and taking a seat, he directly took the top book from the desk and flipped through it with his head down, without giving Zeng Rong or anyone a look.

Zeng Rong looked at this posture and guessed that it was difficult to pass this level, so he had to look back at Chang Dezi at the door, hoping to get some hints from him, but unfortunately, Chang Dezi shook his head slightly.

Zeng Rong didn't dare to disturb the emperor, so he had to look down and think about what he had done wrong in the past half a day.

I don't know how long it took, just when Zeng Rong was about to forget where he was, he suddenly heard a cough, Zeng Rong hurriedly raised his head, saw the emperor picked up the tea cup on the desk and put it down, hurriedly walked over and took the tea cup and poured a cup of hot tea again and put it in his hand.

Zhu Xu didn't go to pick up the tea, Zeng Rong had to ask, "Emperor Qiqi, did the lower officials do something wrong again?" ”

"Think for yourself." Zhu Xu replied with three words, and then took two sips of the teacup.

"Shouldn't the lower officials ridicule the emperor for being stingy with his smile, it is against the Holy Venerable?" Zeng Rong raised his eyes as he spoke.

Zhu Xu didn't squeak when he heard it, and he didn't seem to agree with this.

"Shouldn't the lower official intervene when His Royal Highness chooses a painting? Shouldn't you go to the Second Highness? Zeng Rong came up with two more.

The emperor still did not respond.

"The lower official shouldn't follow the emperor out, he should stay there to talk to His Royal Highness and comfort him?"

"Shouldn't the lower official get too close to the Second Highness?"

"The lower official should go to see the old lady first?"

。。。。。

Zeng Rong roughly said the things he could think of in the past half a day, but he still didn't get a look from the emperor.

There was no way, Zeng Rong had to take a deep breath and said: "Back to the emperor, the lower officials have never interfered in the affairs of His Royal Highness and Zhen Zhang, let alone any disrespect for Zhen. ”

These words were exchanged for a look from Zhu Xu, but he still stared at her coldly and did not speak, obviously, this was not the answer he wanted.

Zeng Rongke is really embarrassed now.

"Back to the emperor, the lower officials really can't remember."

As soon as Zeng Rong's voice fell, Zhu Xu finally spoke, "If you can't remember, kneel down until you remember." ”

"Your Majesty, this is too unfair, you have to give some hints, so guess when the lower official will guess? Besides, the lower officials... ”

Zeng Rong didn't finish speaking, and remembered one more thing, "Your Majesty, shouldn't it be that the lower officials learned that the emperor was coming and slipped away from the small gate in the back garden?" ”

"Slip away? Why slip away? Why don't you dare to see me? Zhu Xu was stunned for a moment, his face was even more ugly, obviously, he didn't know about it.

Zeng Rong really wanted to give himself a slap, and at the same time slandered dozens of times in his heart, the other party was too cunning, she was really not an opponent.

"Back to the emperor, the lower officials secretly ran to give a birthday gift to His Royal Highness, and he didn't dare to let the emperor know, so he slipped away from the small door." Zeng Rong told the truth.

"What birthday present?" Zhu Xu asked again.

Zeng Rong replied.

"Can you understand the four words of private teaching and acceptance?"

Zeng Rong bit his lip, nodded, and then raised his head again, "Back to the emperor, it's different from what you think." Xiaguan has no covetousness for the Second Highness, at first, he felt that he was very pitiful, and felt sorry for him, the Queen Mother would find Xiaguan, saying that His Royal Highness was not a doctor of illness, but that he had nothing to love, and asked Xiaguan to talk to His Royal Highness more and enlighten him, and Xiaguan was so familiar with His Second Highness, accompanied him to watch the clouds, accompanied him to listen to the wind, accompanied him to bask in the sun, and even accompanied him to fly kites, and found some rural anecdotes to make him happy. Later, he gradually became more and more cheerful day by day, and the lower official was moved by his smile again, thinking that it was rare to have such a bright and clean young man in the world, the lower official knew that his identity was humble, and he was even more reluctant to get involved in the battle of the harem. This birthday gift is also to exchange him for a happy smile. ”

These words were very long, Zhu Xu didn't squeak for a long time after listening to them, Zeng Rong didn't dare to look up, and the room was quiet again.

After a while, Zhu Xu said, "How much did you understand what Fang Caizhen said to him?" ”

Zeng Rong raised his head, thought for a moment, and replied: "I should understand this sentence of only taking one scoop of three thousand weak water, and something else... ”

Zeng Rong was about to shake his head, but suddenly said again: "Oh, there is also the sentence 'I am fortunate to have gained, but I have lost my life.'" ’”

Zhu Xu wanted to ask Zeng Rong whether he would be his luck or his life, but then he thought about it, this girl is only thirteen years old, and she may not understand the bitterness behind this sentence.

If you just let it develop naturally, give them two years, it should be enough to see your heart clearly.

Thinking of this, Zhu Xu stopped thinking about punishing Zeng Rong, it is rare for this girl to dare to say this, it can be seen that she is sincere to that stupid boy.

It's just a little unhappy, this girl is reluctant to punish her because of him, and she is becoming more and more presumptuous and not afraid of him.

"That's it, I remember your sincerity, I won't punish you for the time being, remember first, and if you commit it again next time, you will be punished for several crimes." Verbal warnings should still be sufficient.

"Whoa." Zeng Rong responded respectfully and gave the other party this face.

Who knew that she was just about to turn around and leave, but the emperor stopped again, but it happened that a eunuch sent a food box, and Zhu Xu ordered her to send it to Cining Palace, saying that it was for Zhu Heng's longevity noodles.
