When it was evening, Prince Rui wanted to leave the two of them for dinner, but the two shook their heads and refused.

"The master had already explained that he was going back to eat before the two of us came out, so I'm afraid there is not enough time today."

Prince Rui knew what kind of temperament Guo Zhenzheng was, so she didn't force it.

"Well, when you are free, come to the palace and make you a good meal." Prince Rui thought for a while, "There are just a few days before the end of the year, and when the time comes, you all come to the palace." ”

"Well, Yin'er will be in pain, and the master will talk about it."

On Chinese New Year's Eve, Guo Zhenzheng was brought to the royal mansion by Qin Yinyun, and there was no expression on his face, but he could see that there was some emotion in his eyes.

Qin Yunluo smiled, she didn't care about them, she was busy with the things she was doing.

"If only we could get together every year."

Duan Xingzhen rarely brought an obvious smile on the corner of his mouth, "There will definitely be opportunities in the future, not only this year, we will get together, but every year in the future." ”

"Hmm."

"You are not in the palace tonight on Chinese New Year's Eve, will the emperor say something?"

"This year is different from previous years, because the envoys of the State of Qi came here, so the Chinese New Year's Eve does not have to pass, and it will be until the Lantern Festival, when the emperor and the courtiers will gather together."

"Well, that's fine." Qin Yunluo nodded, "Lest something happen halfway through, and you will be called away by the emperor again." ”

The New Year closed for a few days, and on the fifth day, the emperor announced that Duan Xingzhen entered the palace.

"The time of Qi is still five days away, how are you arranging things now?"

"It's almost arranged, just waiting for them to enter the city."

"Not bad." The emperor said, "In this case, the security of the capital is completely entrusted to you, and there must be no mistakes." ”

"If there's anything you need, just say it."

"Yes."

Looking at the man in front of him, the emperor sighed a little in his heart.

"If you are my prince, I don't have to worry about who this throne will pass on to in the future."

Ordinary people were naturally shocked when they heard this, but Duan Xingzhen didn't seem to hear it.

"Your Majesty said with a smile, you are the Son of Heaven and Ah Zhen is a courtier, how can you say such a thing? If it is another day, the emperor elects the crown prince, and Weichen will definitely tutor him well. ”

The Emperor opened his mouth again and asked, "How can you be sure that you can't be this prince?" ”

Duan Xingzhen said, "I can't do it, and I don't want to do it." ”

Looking at the emperor's slightly ugly face, Duan Xingzhen continued, "Your Majesty should know that we have been used to the life of idle clouds and wild cranes before, and now we are staying here, just to assist Your Majesty in governing the Ji Dynasty well, if you really let Weichen sit in which seat?" Wechen can't do it. ”

"Moreover, now Weichen's wish is to assist His Majesty well, and when the time comes, he will take Yunluo to go out for a walk, and he can walk around wherever he has not been before."

The emperor didn't go on with the subject, but just waved his hand.

"The throne that many people covet, but you can't be it."

Duan Xingzhen was silent.

"That's it, today's words will be treated as if I didn't say it, you can go back."

"Yes."

Duan Xingzhen walked out of the imperial study, but saw the figure of a eunuch leaving from this side, and his steps were hurried.

However, he didn't think much about it and left directly.

After the New Year, the temperature was not as low as before, and the envoys of Qi finally arrived in Qi State.

"I'm going to the city gate today to pick up Qi Han, you?"

Qin Yunluo waved her hand, "I have my own opinions, so you can go about your own affairs." ”

"Hmm." Duan Xingzhen called Zhen'er again, and then said, "Serve the princess well, if the princess wants to go to any dangerous place, she will definitely stop it, but you understand what I mean?" ”

"The prince, the slave and maid can save it, and they will definitely not let the princess encounter danger."

After Duan Xingzhen left, Qin Yunluo also took Zhen'er out of the mansion immediately.

"Why do you look so excited?"

"In addition to the princes of our Ji Dynasty, the slaves have never seen the princes of other countries, of course they have to take a good look."

"Do you know what's the best location? I'll also accompany you to have a look today. ”

"The best location is on the city tower, you can see anything you want, but now we can't go openly, why don't we go to the Four Seas Restaurant?"

"Okay, let's go there."

Lin Feng stopped Qin Yunluo.

"It's not a big deal, I'll just take a look, and you can go about your own business."

"Okay." Linfeng still has a lot of people to entertain, and now he hasn't stayed here for such a long time, "Then, if the princess needs help with anything, just say hello, someone will come." ”

"Hmm."

Not long after Lin Feng left, Duan Xingzhen also picked people up and entered the city.

Qin Yunluo didn't have any interest in watching the so-called prince, but she was embarrassed to ruin her interest when she saw that girl Zhen'er was so energetic.

"But after reading it? Let's go home? ”

On the way back to the house, Zhen'er pouted and asked, "The princess didn't even take a look?" ”

"I'm not interested in these people, but what do you see?"

Zhen'er thought for a moment, "Although these two people are princes, they don't look as good as our princes. ”

"Our son is the best-looking person in the whole world."

"As good as you say."

On the other side, Duan Xingzhen directly brought people to the post station.

Qi Han bowed his hand respectfully, "Thank you, Your Royal Highness, and ask His Royal Highness the Prince to tell the emperor, and then go over after Qi Han is familiar with it." ”

"It doesn't matter."

Qi Han was still the same as when he was in Qi Country before, polite and gentle, but Qi Ming on the side looked as if someone else owed him something, his face was on display, and he looked at Duan Xingzhen's face with obvious jealousy.

It is because of Duan Xingzhen that he lost his position as the crown prince, and now he can't compare to this younger brother who he has never looked down on before.

Although his father has not yet set up a crown prince, it is because he proposed this war, and now he has lost all his goodwill with the emperor.

This time, if it weren't for his mother's concubine begging for him, I'm afraid that this trip would not have his share.

At that time, if Qi Han and Ji Chao form any alliance, it will only be themselves who will be persecuted.

It was because he thought of this that when Qi Han came over, he had to follow him regardless of others.

However, in the end, he still couldn't swallow his breath, "At this moment, the prince is easy to speak." ”
