In the middle of the month, the palace at night was shrouded in a piece of moonlight, and the shadows of flowers and trees fell on the ground very clearly.

Lu Zhan moved lightly against the foot of the wall, and after a short time, he stood under the side wall of the carrier hall.

The sound of bangzi in the distance has been beaten twice, but the lights are still on the side of the carrier hall, and in the huge hall, the king of Jin is still neatly dressed, and he is pacing in the hall with his hands.

Staff members Pang Zhao and Du Zhongchun stood under the curtain, holding several volumes in their hands. The candlelight flickered on all sides, like the footsteps of King Jin, and could not be stopped.

"In this way, the emperor is indeed planning to establish a prince."

At the moment when the voice sounded, King Jin finally stopped under the curtain, and the slow sound came through half of the hall.

"Yes, it looks." Pang Zhao, who had a long beard, said, "Yesterday, the emperor has drafted a decree from the Ministry of Rites to announce that King Han will return to Beijing in August to congratulate Concubine Yu on her birthday. In addition, he also asked the King of Qin, although he did not explicitly pass him back to Beijing, but he also said that the King of Qin had good kung fu immediately, and he had gained a lot from the autumn hunt before.

"I thought that Zhang Rukun Zhang's invitation was not only not a tiger's beard, but it seemed to have fallen into the arms of the emperor, and it was said that the emperor was in his heart. Perhaps, the emperor does already have the mind of establishing a prince. ”

King Jin turned his head under the curtain: "But if the emperor has this thought, why does he have to wait until the autumn hunt?" Is he still going to chase the deer in the paddock, and let each of us brothers decide the place of storage? ”

Du Zhongchun frowned: "The emperor is heroic and brave, he was known for his bravery when he was young, and it is not uncommon to value the cultural and martial arts of the princes.

"It's just that in this way, the prince's side will suffer some losses. In these years, the prince has not been proficient in martial arts because of Taoguang's obscurity, and has put most of his energy on government affairs and mental cultivation. ”

"That's not true." Pang Zhao looked at him, "Although the prince is negligent in practicing martial arts, our prince is diligent and progressive, and he will never lose to the king of Qin and the king of Han." The emperor originally valued the prince, and he personally chose a teacher for the prince, and he had an excellent grandson, who was quite powerful in competing for the throne.

"When the time comes, the prince will not be able to go into battle, and it will be nine out of ten to let the prince replace him!"

"But although the prince is diligent and intelligent, he has never been to the paddock, and he has no experience, so how can he say that he is nine out of ten? Moreover, if there is really such a certainty, how could the emperor think of summoning the King of Qin and the King of Han into Beijing? ”

"Brother Du, is it possible that he has no confidence in the prince?"

"Of course not, it's just a precautionary measure. I don't want to fall short when things come to an end. ”

Du Zhongchun retorted.

Pang Zhao saw that King Jin's eyebrows were tightly wrinkled, so he stopped talking.

King Jin said: "How is the King of Qin and King Han doing?" ”

Du Zhongchun said: "King Qin can still know some news here, for example, Princess Qin is pregnant again, King Qin will go out every once in a while to find novelties to please Princess Qin, including King Qin's two little lords also often appear in the city, it is said that they look very cute."

"The King of Han doesn't know why, I can't get any useful news, the defense of the Han King's Mansion is getting more and more strict, except for the news that the King of Han took the initiative to reveal, no one knows about the situation in the palace."

"Yes." King Jin's brows furrowed again.

Pang Zhao said: "King Han is only nineteen years old, and he doesn't want to be scheming but he is so deep. ”

"It's not necessarily scheming." Du Zhongchun groaned, "King Han has only been away from Beijing for two years, and before he left Beijing, he was still a teenager who played with his son all day long, and he couldn't suddenly become deep.

"If it's pretending, it's not from the moment he's been pretending. So in the next guess, King Han should be purposefully guarding against something. ”

The King of Jin on the other end of the candlelight flashed slightly, and said quietly: "If you beware of this king, you will really be wronged." ”

Pang Du and the others turned their faces: "The Yu family has not turned over yet, Concubine Yu has also been demoted to the concubine position, and the King of Han is cautious, but it is understandable." ”

The corners of King Jin's lips hooked slightly, sat down, and then said: "Pay more attention to the Shen and Yang families, the Shen family has not been peaceful recently." ”

The two said yes, and they withdrew with a wave of his hand.

Lu Zhan, who was on the wall in the dark, looked at King Jin who was elegantly serving tea in the wide-open window, and his throat seemed to be wrapped in a ball of hemp.

The most heavily defended palace in the palace is under the palace walls, although the front yard is also full of guards, but because the carrier hall is connected to the backyard, there are fewer guards-

Of course, it may also be because the King of Jin has a warrior in his private possession, and in order to facilitate access to it, he specially withdrew part of the defense, and the King of Jin himself does not practice martial arts much, so that he who is already in the palace has an opportunity.

At this moment, the figure facing the window was no different from his father, graceful and luxurious, never in a hurry, and so patient and humble to everyone.

Even though there were ten thousand questions hidden in his heart, looking at it like this, Lu Zhan still felt that he was not a stranger. The previous conversation between King Jin and Du Pang looked extremely normal, but it was just a normal discussion between the owner and the staff, perhaps, even if he did raise a warrior, it could not prove that he had the intention of murdering his son?

He looked up at the sky, where the moon hung silently on the canopy.

His father was the master of the palace, and he carried the fate of so many people in the palace on his shoulders, and he was just a milky child in their eyes, so why should he tell himself everything? Judging from himself in his previous life, it means telling him that he can't help much, right?

Lu Zhan stretched out his hand and stroked the back of his neck, no matter what, he couldn't think of any reason for him to murder him.

He frowned and let out a deep sigh as he prepared to brace himself to the ground.

As soon as he got up, he suddenly paused again, and his eyes immediately turned to the direction of the temple gate.

In the middle of the moonlight, a person walked to the door again, and after a pause, he pushed the door in.

The eunuchs in the palace are all dressed in soap clothes, this person is obviously dressed in robes, and he is definitely not a eunuch! Not only was he not a eunuch, but he could even recognize that this person was Du Zhongchun, who had left Pang Zhao before.

Lu Zhan pressed all his thoughts and quickly lurked back to his original place.

"Lord Wang." Du Zhongchun bowed and returned to King Jin.

King Jin, who was supporting his spirits, opened his eyes: "When did King Han's abnormality begin?" ”

"I think it started after I left Beijing. Prince, when the kingdom of the Han King was originally proposed by Concubine Yu to the emperor, I was worried that the King of Han had already had some plans here, and I always felt that the Yu family was planted in the hands of Song Xiang and the prince this time, and it was a bit too honest. Concubine Yu didn't make any moves, if the King of Qin and King Han really came back from this autumn hunt, I was afraid that it would not be peaceful, and the prince would need to make plans early. ”

King Jin put his hand down, muttered silently for a moment, and said, "You reminded you very right. It's time for the emperor to pay attention. ”
