Murong Jin had no choice but to pack up the books and walk outside.

As soon as he walked out of the school palace, he saw a figure dressed in brocade clothes and holding a hand stove to stop Murong Jin, and the man said a little anxiously: "Ah Jin, why did you only come out at this time?" ”

Murong Jin was stunned for a moment, "Why is the third brother here?" ”

Murong Yan's biological mother, Concubine Lan, had a good relationship with the former empress, so Murong Jin often played with Murong Yan when she was young, like a brother. I had seen it from afar at the night banquet before, but now when I look closely, I realize that I haven't seen it for three years, and it's not what I remember.

"I thought you came out right after you, but I didn't know that you had been delayed for so long, and I thought something had happened to you." As he spoke, he took Murong Jin's hand and walked forward, stopped after less than two steps, and stuffed the hand stove in his arms to Murong Jin, "It's only been a long time since I came out, and my hands are frozen like this, and I know that I am afraid of the cold and I don't know how to keep warm." These minions are too careless, and they don't know how to send a hand stove to their master on a cold day. The two people behind Murong Jin didn't dare to speak, so they only bowed their bodies lower.

Murong Jin covered his hand stove, only to feel that his palm was extremely ironed, and gently patted the back of Murong Yan's hand and said, "Okay, it will definitely not be next time." Anyway, why is the third brother waiting for me here today? ”

"Naturally, I haven't seen you for a long time and want to talk to you. You left quietly for three years, and you didn't come to me when you came back, and I didn't think you would come today. Since you have come, and you and I are on the same road, we will go back with you, and we will not feel lonely. ”

Murong Jin was puzzled: "Zilan Palace is not going in this direction, won't the third brother dine with Concubine Lan today?" ”

"Alas......" Murong Yan sighed weakly, "Don't mention it, I just had a conflict with my mother yesterday, and now I don't want to see her, and my mother doesn't want to see me." ”

"......" Murong Jin was silent. The relationship between Murong Yan and Concubine Lan's mother and son is good, although Murong Yan is a little naughty, he has always been towards Concubine Lan, and now like this, I am afraid that it is not a small contradiction. didn't ask any more, but said, "Then why don't you go to the Floating Moon Palace for dinner today?" ”

"No need," Murong Yan shook his head, "Naturally, I want to go to Xihua Palace, and walk very close to this palace road, your palace is too far away, I'm afraid that before I arrive, I will be so hungry that I can't walk, Ah Jin can eat with me today," and said to Dongxian and the two, "One of you will go back and spread a message, saying that your Highness will dine with me today, so that they don't have to prepare." Without waiting for Murong Jin to reply, he pulled him towards Xihua Palace.

The road to Xihua Palace was really closer, the two of them took off their cloaks and entered the conservatory, Murong Yan retreated from the palace and pulled Murong Jin to sit down, "You have been away from the palace for too long, there are many things in the palace that may not be clear, although I don't know everything, but it's good for you to listen to it." ”

Murong Yan continued: "Now the virtuous concubine in the palace is the most favored, and the Lin family supports her behind her, my mother and concubine have to give him three points, and even the eldest brother has countless favors." I heard some broken palace people say that the fifth brother's illness is inseparable from the two of them. These two people are not kind to others, with your current situation, you can avoid it, and don't cause any trouble. Also, Xi Qin plans to be friendly with my Dayan, and is already preparing to send a princess over as a proton, and his father is also preparing to send a prince over," he said and looked at Murong Jin, and when he saw that his brows were slightly locked, he continued, "Don't think too much about it, taking care of your body now is the most important thing, not long after you came back, your father will definitely not let you leave again." ”

Murong Jin smiled bitterly in his heart, but did not speak.

"You just returned to the School Palace, that Mr. Gu is very weird, it's better for you to have less contact with him."

Murong Jin asked, "Why did the third brother say this?" ”

Murong Yan said: "Mr. Yan came soon after he fell ill, and I don't know who he was or who recommended him. Casual and arrogant all day long.,Smile on weekdays.,But I'm not close to anyone.,When you ask for advice on knowledge, you pretend to be profound.,Very vague.。 His father still appreciates him very much, but it is said that he is the son of a family of which family, and he dresses like a poor scholar who is rushing to take the exam. I can't tell what's wrong with him, anyway, it gives me a bad feeling. ”

"What the third brother meant, I understand, thank you third brother." Murong Jin smiled slightly, and his eyes were as soft as the first glow after the snow that had not appeared for a long time.

Murong Yan smiled nonchalantly: "You are my fourth brother, I am your third brother, thank you for coming and going, you have more points." ”

During the conversation, the food arrived.

Murong Yan said a lot more, what "there are more pairs of green sparrows on the trees in Xiyuan", "There are a few more purple and good palaces in Changxi Palace", "There are a few new dim sum dishes in the imperial food room", such clouds.

Murong Jin has been in the imperial mausoleum for the past few years, and the only thing that can be driven away is the basic scriptures and holy words, and listening to Murong Yan talk about these gossip and trivial things in the palace is also interesting.

The two finished their lunch while talking and laughing, and because there was still a lesson in the six arts from time to time, they could only take a nap.

The teachers of each prince in the course of the six arts are different, so they need to practice in different places, and the course arrangement is also determined according to the different conditions of each prince.

Murong Yan asked, "What class will Ah Jin go to in a while?" ”

"It seems to be music and shooting." Murong Jin thought for a while and said.

Murong Yan frowned, "I heard that Ah Jin hasn't recovered from his illness yet, so he shouldn't have gone to any archery lessons." ”

"It's okay, it's not a big deal, but I often stay in the house, and I always feel like I'm going to suffocate." Murong Jin smiled, "Third brother, I should go back, it would be rude to let Mr. wait." ”

Murong Yan nodded, "I'll send you." ”

Murong Jin didn't push back, and after Murong Jin left, Murong Yan's loose brows furrowed again, and Concubine Lan's words yesterday were still in her ears-

"Tomorrow you will go to the school palace for class, and your fourth brother will probably go too, so don't get too close to him at that time."

Murong Yan was puzzled: "Why? ”

"With his current situation, it will take you down. When Empress Jinghuai was alive, she was extremely at odds with the virtuous concubine, and now that the virtuous concubine is in power, if you don't make friends with your eldest brother, at least don't be an enemy of him. Mother is not as good as she used to be, and I am afraid that I will not be able to protect you in some things. ”

"What is his current situation, the son naturally knows, but so what, we are close relatives, and he is also my own brother."

Concubine Lan said coldly: "Who is your closest flesh and blood?" "Who is his queen mother, and who is your mother? He is the son of the royal families of the two countries, and has an inexplicable relationship with the extinct Northern Qi, and the whole dynasty wants to get rid of him, what good results can you get close to him! ”

"......"

Concubine Lan immediately interrupted him and said: "Even if he wins the throne in the future, he is the concubine, you are the concubine, he is the king, you are the minister, you are only the monarch and the minister, not the brother." ”

"But Ah Jin, he's different—"

"How do you treat your royal brother, and how do you treat him? Why don't you see you treat your fifth brother and sixth sister like this, aren't they your brothers and sisters? Why do you want to embarrass for a Murong Jin and me! ”

Murong Yan's eyes were red, "From beginning to end, it was clear that my mother was making things difficult for me. ”

"Ah Yan, mother is all for your good. He was full of thoughts at a young age, and if you were to be his friend, you might even be cheated of your life one day—"

Murong Yan had never seen Concubine Lan so stern and out of shape, but he had already made up his mind in his heart, "What is it that can't be cheated, if he treats me well, I will treat him well, even if I really need my life one day?" ”

"......" Concubine Lan looked at him without saying a word for a long time, and after a long time, she raised her hand and swept a net bottle at Murong Yan's feet, "You go." ”

"Mother's ......"

......

When Murong Jin returned to the Floating Moon Palace, a long case and cushions had already been set up in the courtyard. In the past, on the grounds of "Le Tong Nature", the husband moved all the music and rhythm classes to the courtyard, and when it rained, he moved them to a pavilion not far away, and when it snowed lightly in winter, he simply took classes directly in the courtyard. It has a different artistic conception, but it is also frozen.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard someone call "Your Highness".

When he turned around, he saw a young man in a white robe, with a silver mask on half of his face, and he looked at him deeply, "In the next day, I will be in charge of the music and rhythm of the four highnesses. ”

It turned out to be him.

Murong Jin couldn't help but think of the green robe and the white-clothed wonderful man in the night banquet that day-

"Your Highness and I will definitely meet again in the future."

Sure enough, there is fate......
