Leaving the prince's bedroom, Yiqiu Palace, Li Yu saw Su Xiaozhou pacing anxiously under the corridor from a distance.

As soon as she saw him come out, she immediately greeted him.

"What's wrong with Your Highness?"

Li Yu didn't answer, and looked at her with some doubts, "Listen to that subordinate who has been with you for several years." You are called 'Rice Worm' in the East Palace, and you don't even want to take care of the official affairs in your office, why are you so diligent now? Right Inner Rate House...... It doesn't seem to care about His Highness's daily life and medicine, right? ”

"I want you to take care of-"

Su Xiaozhou gave him a blank look, "Xue Yi must not have said everything." It should be, I don't care about anything in the East Palace except for things related to His Highness. ”

Not long after Li Yu entered, the chamberlain went to pass the imperial doctor into the palace, for fear that something would happen to His Royal Highness the Prince, so she had to wait for news here.

"What happened to Your Highness?" She asked anxiously.

Not daring to sell Guan Zi again, Li Yu shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter, it's just an ordinary afternoon fever, and it can go down after drinking medicine." Come, open your mouth—"

"Huh?"

Su Xiaozhou didn't react, so Li Yu threw something into his mouth.

She chewed and muttered, "Sugar lotus seeds? Take it from Your Highness. ”

"Yes, Your Highness said you like to eat."

As he spoke, Li Yu tasted one himself, and was immediately overwhelmed by the overly sweet taste.

Su Xiaozhou blinked, and smiled a little slyly: "Actually, I don't like to eat, it's just Your Highness who likes it." The king of medicine said that honey produces phlegm, and his illness should not eat sugar-stained food. But he prefers to eat sugar lotus seeds, and no one in the East Palace dares to stop him. So, I had to say that I like to eat, and every time I go to his place, I sneak a little bit away, just to let him eat less. ”

"I see. I'll eat these myself—"

Li Yu shook his sleeve pockets, which were heavy, full of sugar lotus seeds.

"Yo, good job!"

Su Xiaozhou was in a good mood, Li Yu was still a little useful, he only dared to catch a small handful every time, but he didn't expect him to bring out the whole plate.

didn't expect to get her praise for doing this kind of thing, Li Yu smiled helplessly.

"The day after tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and there will be lantern festivals in the east and west cities, which will be very lively."

"Huh?"

Su Xiaozhou was stunned.

Is Li Yu going to ask himself to see the lights?

……

Li Yu cleared his throat, "Do a good job, since the two families are discussing marriage, it is a festive season, so they should be invited to ......."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked him how the matter was going to end. His answer is that he has never done anything against his will, including the decision to marry Miss Su San.

"I ...... I...... That day, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was going to enter the Daming Palace to meet His Majesty and the Queen Mother, and I had to wait for him to return to the palace before I could ......," Su Xiaozhou replied hesitantly.

"Okay—"

Li Yu nodded seriously, "Tomorrow evening, I will wait for you at the gate of the West Market." ”

*******

August 15, Mid-Autumn Festival.

I was in a trance all day, and in the evening, Su Xiaozhou looked left and right outside the Jiafu Gate. I was worried about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who had not yet returned, and I was worried that I would not be able to leave the palace before the palace gate was closed.

Early this morning, the previous dynasty issued an edict announcing to the world: The Holy Admiral will posthumously honor the ancestors of the first six generations and the fifth generations of emperors and concubines as emperors and empresses, and increase the titles of ancestors, Taizong and empresses. From now on, His Majesty will be renamed the Emperor, and the Empress Wu will be the Queen of Heaven, in order to avoid the first emperor and the successive titles. At the same time, the name of the era was changed to Shangyuan, and from August 15, there was an amnesty for the world.

In the once-in-a-decade amnesty, in addition to the ten heinous sins, those who have committed great and small sins have been pardoned; The exiled are released; The old man over eighty years old is rewarded with corn and brocade; Filial sons and grandsons, righteous husbands and wives are rewarded; Widows, widows, lonely and sick people receive relief; Green forest water bandits and outlaws also got the opportunity to recruit peace. For the people of the world, it couldn't be better.

But for the crown prince of the dynasty, the Son of Heaven changed from one person to two, which is a terrible thing......

I entered the palace early in the morning to pay respects, and now that it is almost dark, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not returned, there should be no change, right?

"Boat—"

A man patted him on the shoulder from behind.

"Ahh

Su Xiaozhou was taken aback.

Looking back, it was Lu Ji.

Pulling his sleeve, she said anxiously: "Brother Lu, didn't you accompany His Highness to Daming Palace?" ”

Lu Ji pulled back his sleeves and said slowly: "His Majesty the Emperor and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are admiring the moon in the palace." Your Highness is afraid that you are in a hurry, so I specially asked me to come back and talk about it. ”

Hearing him say this, Su Xiaozhou breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Great. Then I'll go home first-"

She was about to leave, but Lu Ji grabbed her collar.

Lu Jili was dressed and said slowly: "Hey, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. Brother, I don't have anywhere to go, so I might as well go home with you. ”

"Huh?" Su Xiaozhou's face collapsed.

"What's wrong?! My parents and brothers didn't take me to the capital, and it was Brother Wang who took me home during the Mid-Autumn Festival last year. Now that you've gotten him away, I don't care, you have to be responsible for me to the end. Lu Ji said as if he was playful.

"Actually...... In fact...... "Su Xiaozhou has a hard time speaking.

Originally, she planned to go home and change her clothes and go to the West Market for an appointment. Lu Ji is a very soft person, like a dog skin plaster, he is not afraid of stalking him in order to achieve his goal, and if he wants to get rid of him, I am afraid it is not so easy.

"It's a little inconvenient." She decided to reject him outright.

"What's inconvenient?"

Lu Ji grabbed her shoulder, "Brother, I haven't been to your house for so many years." I heard that you have two sisters who are like flowers, and you are reluctant to let me see them? ”

At the mention of his sister, Su Xiaozhou had a flash of inspiration.

"It's because of my sister that it's inconvenient! The third sister and the fourth sister have all been allowed to pass others, if I take you home during the Mid-Autumn Festival, I am afraid it will attract gossip. ”

"Hmmm......"

Lu Ji pondered for a moment and nodded again and again, "What the virtuous brother said is very reasonable. But this Mid-Autumn Festival, you can't let me spend it alone! Anyway, Ling Zun is not in the capital, and it is nothing if the man's husband does not celebrate the festival with his brothers and sisters. Tonight, how about our brother find a liquor store and drink all night? ”

Su Xiaozhou wanted to refuse very much, but he couldn't think of any reason after racking his brains.

The twilight was dreary, and seeing that the palace gate was about to close, there was no time to entangle with him here.

"Okay——, but it's not interesting for two people to drink. I'll take you to Xishi and find your brother-in-law together. ”

"It couldn't be better!"

Finally, there is no need to be alone with the moon, Lu Ji is very satisfied.

……

Hurriedly out of the palace gate, the two rode their horses all the way. Finally, before the end of the 800 dusk drums, he rushed to the gate of Xishifang, and saw Li Yu, who was stunned by the door, and Xue Yi, who was "dutiful" beside him.

handed over the horses in the stable outside the fangmen, and Su Xiaozhou led the excited Lu Ji in.

"Fish bone, let me introduce, this is Lord Lu Ji of the East Palace." She said with a wilt.

Born to be familiar, Lu Ji immediately greeted him enthusiastically, "Brother Fish Thorn, I've been looking up for a long time!" Lu's words: Lin Jie. Luckily—fortunately—"
