East Palace, Lizheng Hall.

The delicate bowls were held by the delicate hands of the palace maids, and they were placed on each person's dining table in a staggered manner, and although they were covered, they could not hide the aroma of the food.

Chi Tang endured his hunger, glanced at the only empty seat, and muttered in his heart.

Why hasn't Daddy come yet?

"Are you hungry? Why don't we use it first? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked intimately.

Chi Tang blushed and shook his head hurriedly: "No, no, I'm not hungry......" said, still couldn't help but look out the door.

Li Yan didn't care about such a little time, the result was the same anyway.

When he sent someone to invite Miss Chi over, he said, "Chi Erlang has already sent someone over there."

Sent someone, but not sent someone to invite him, if Chi Changting came, he would have to stare at him and not let him talk to Miss Chi.

inadvertently looked at Lu Zijin with a smile, as if he had seen through his plan.

Li Yan bowed his head lightly.

But at this moment, Miss Chi suddenly stood up, took a few steps, and shouted sweetly: "Daddy!" ”

Li Yan raised his eyes suddenly, the Xuanang man who walked in under the guidance of the chamberlain was not Chi Changting, who was it?

He glanced coldly at Feng An, who was leading Chi Changting in, and Feng An gave him a sad smile back.

Li Yan sighed in his heart.

Anyway, Chi Changting is coming, Feng An is indeed not easy to stop, which annoys Chi Changting, and the little girl Chi probably wants to blame him.

Li Yan nodded to Chi Changting quietly, raised his hand and made an inviting gesture: "Gong Chi, please take a seat." ”

Chi Changting raised his head, hooked his lips coldly at His Royal Highness the Prince, and said, "Your Highness is so interested today, why did you suddenly think of leaving a little girl for lunch?" ”

Li Yan said with a calm expression: "Mr. Lu has been in Beijing for many days, and he has not yet set up a banquet to catch the wind. ”

Lu Zijin got up and played a round game: "It is an honor for Zijin to be accompanied by Chi Erlang." ”

After all, it was his daughter's husband, and Chi Changting couldn't help but give face, so he had to accept his emotions and sit down with a faint expression.

However, in the end, he was angry in his heart, and when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince toasted him, he couldn't help but say: "Since there is nothing to do in the East Palace, His Royal Highness promised to go back to him——"

"I'm sorry." After Li Yan finished speaking, he looked at him without avoidance.

Chi Changting's face suddenly sank: "What does Your Highness mean by this?" ”

Li Yan glanced at the dazed and ignorant little girl Chi, and said: "Gu also studied painting under Mr. Lu, and Ah Tang has worshiped under Mr. Lu, and in the future, he will be Gu's junior sister." ”

"Bang dang!"

Chi Tang was so shocked that the wine cup in his hand fell off, splashing the fragrance of wine on his body, and he was still stunned and couldn't come back to his senses.

Didn't you say a few days ago that you would accept her as a righteous daughter? Why did you become a junior sister in a blink of an eye? It was so sudden that she couldn't get used to it......

Chi Changting's face was already ugly, and when he smelled the smell of wine spilled from his daughter's cup, he was almost murderous: "The little girl can't drink, how can His Highness serve her wine!" ”

Li Yan was silent for a moment and explained: "This is Princess Xin'an's lychee stuffing, it's okay to drink some." ”

The little girl had already secretly drunk wine, so it would be better for him to know about it alone......

Chi Changting glanced at him fiercely, and after Chi Tang went down to change his clothes, he poured a glass of wine and said coldly: "His Royal Highness has not officially apprenticed, so he is not a student of Mr. Lu!" ”

Li Yan glanced at Lu Zijin, but saw her shaking her head silently, and she was also embarrassed in her heart.

Although he has obeyed Mr. Lu for many years, he has not formally apprenticed because of his fear of the Son of Heaven.

But this point can't stop His Royal Highness the Prince's decision: "Since there is a master and apprentice, Ah Tang is Lone's junior sister, even if it is inconvenient to make it public, Lone will still fulfill his responsibilities as a senior brother and take good care of his sister!" ”

The word "take care" suddenly poked Chi Changting's sore foot, and almost made him jump: "No need!" The little girl has a father and a brother, and there will be many senior brothers to take care of her in the future, and she doesn't dare to climb His Royal Highness the Prince! ”

Last time, when I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince took good care of his daughter, how did he take care of it?

Crown Princess!

Bah!

Li Yan frowned and glanced at Lu Zijin.

Lu Zijin replied to him with a blank expression.

"Where are there so many senior brothers in Ah Tang?" Li Yan asked unhappily.

Don't say that Mr. Lu doesn't like to accept students, even if he does, he will stop it, Ah Tang has his senior brother is enough!

Chi Changting sneered: "Didn't the minister just accept a student recently?" It's still stuffed by His Highness to the ministers! ”

When Li Yan heard this, he immediately relieved his heart, nodded and said, "What did Gong Chi say about Zhou Yi?" Zhou Yi is good, he is a person who knows how to repay his kindness! ”

I seem to remember that Zhou Yi's wedding date is on the twentieth day of the lunar month?

Well...... Can Feng An pick something and reward it......

Chi Changting knew where His Royal Highness the Prince's satisfied expression came from at a glance, smiled, and said: "Not only Zhou Yi, but the minister is old, it is time to carry the juniors, accept a few more students, and have someone to help take care of the little girl in the future!" ”

He's already figured out that he'll go out and look for students on the street later!

Next year's test will be held, and there are many talented people in the world, so he doesn't believe that he can't find the second or third Zhou Yi!

"Chi Erlang wants to accept students, but I know that there is someone who is quite suitable!" Lu Zijin suddenly interjected with great interest.

"Oh? Mr. Lu, please speak! Chi Changting was very interested.

"It's—"

"Sir!" Li Yan interrupted Lu Zijin with a calm face.

Lu Zijin smiled and lowered his head to drink.

Li Yan turned to Chi Changting and said lightly: "Gong Chi is really worried, everything is not expensive, Ah Tang is enough to be lonely, and he doesn't need others to take care of him!" ”

Chi Changting smiled "hehe" and said: "Your Highness has every opportunity, and you will choose a concubine next year, where can you take care of the little girl?" ”

"Alone!" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said lightly.

"The little girl doesn't dare to climb high-"

"You can climb high!"

Lu Zijin laughed when he heard it, and happened to catch a glimpse of Miss Chi coming back, so he raised his hand to greet him, interrupting the inexplicably funny-for-tat confrontation between the two by the way.

As soon as Chi Tang entered the door, he felt that the atmosphere was tense, but after looking at the few people present, Mr. Lu smiled happily, and his father and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince were also calm and couldn't see anything abnormal.

In the end, it can only be boiled down to thinking too much.

Sitting back in his seat, Chi Tang couldn't help but exclaim: "It turns out that His Royal Highness also learned painting with Mr. No wonder ......"

No wonder Qi Guogong said yesterday that she painted a little like Mr. Lu, and at that time she thought that Qi Guogong was talking nonsense!

Li Yan's expression eased, and he nodded at her and said: "In the future, you and Gu is the same door, if you don't have to see outside, Gu will give you a token of the East Palace, and you can enter and exit the East Palace at any time with the token." ”

Lu Zijin couldn't help but cough lightly when he heard this, and said, "That...... Your Highness, it seems that the sign you gave as a teacher can't enter and leave the East Palace at any time. ”

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knew his mistake and immediately ordered: "Feng An, go and get two tokens for walking in the East Palace!" ”

Chi Changting smiled coldly, turned his head and instructed his daughter: "Although it is the grace of His Royal Highness the Prince, but the East Palace is busy with political affairs, you have to be sensible, don't come to disturb His Highness." ”

Chi Tang didn't know what he could do when he came to the East Palace, and when he heard his father's instructions, he naturally nodded obediently, but he also sincerely thanked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for his grace.

Seeing that His Royal Highness the Prince's face was not so good-looking, Chi Changting finally felt a little more comfortable in his heart, and asked with a smile: "I heard that Zongzheng and the Ministry of Rites have submitted a candidate for the concubine of the East Palace, I wonder if His Highness has chosen it?" ”
