"The red plums in the plum garden are blooming, can Ah Jin go and help the queen mother pick a few branches?" Murong Jin remembered that the Queen Mother had said this before.

In the dream, the world was snow-white, and everything seemed to be the same.

The sun shines on the earth, shining brightly. The mother sat on a chair in the courtyard, quietly flipping through the books in her hands, and captivated the country and the city. The boy rested his head on his mother's lap and listened quietly to the sound of the snow melting. Although his father was busy with government affairs, he would still take the time to come to the palace, surround the fox fur around his mother, talk a few words to his mother, and play with the boy a few times.

Suddenly, dark clouds covered the sky, and a strong wind blew away, blowing away the floating flowers, knocking down the palace lamps, and the world instantly turned black and white, and fell into a terrible darkness.

The father stood three feet away with his mother in his arms, and the blood dyed the gorgeous clothes of the two little by little. The boy ran as hard as he could, but couldn't move, and shouted desperately but couldn't make any sound. Helplessness, pain, and despair filled his heart to the brim, and he almost couldn't breathe.

"Queen Mother—" Murong Jin opened her eyes suddenly, staring at the cyan gauze tent above.

After a long time, two lines of tears silently slid down his cheeks.

A chamberlain dressed in a green palace robe heard the sound and said worriedly: "Your Highness, but you have a nightmare again?" ”

Murong Jin nodded and asked, "Dongxian, what time is it?" ”

Dong Xian said: "Go back to Your Highness, it's time." ”

"Is it all this late?" Murong Jin propped up the bed and got up, and ordered, "Take a set of clothes and go to the plum garden later." ”

Dongxian's eyes darkened, but he just retreated and prepared.

Since the death of the empress, Murong Jin seems to have changed as a different person. He used to be so nagging, now he is so silent, he used to be well-behaved and sensible, but now he is obedient and impermanent. The four princes who were two years old and four years old who carried a sword, who were once praised as a "genius by the right minister", became a fool who was in a daze in the plum garden every day.

Overnight, there was no grace.

After Emperor Yan no longer valued this prince, some people in the court began to evaluate and discuss. Some words are really hard to hear.

Northern Qi remnants!

The prince who was once the most favored by Emperor Yan is now detained with such a title, although it is not strange, but it is also ridiculous.

However, the words in the harem will only be more ugly than this. For the first time, Dongxian knew that the gossip in this palace would eat people.

The son of the royal family of the two countries. How much glory this identity brought him back then, and now it is returned to him with several times the cold words and dark arrows. Can such a small child bear it?

Bearable.

Don't look, don't listen. What I do every day is to sit in the plum garden and bask in the sun, watch the snow, watch the plums, and occasionally get a little rain, but there will be people holding umbrellas. The red plum blossoms in the plum garden were already empty, because the red plums in the Qiwu Palace had never been broken—Murong Jin would replace the newly bloomed plum blossoms everywhere the night before every day.

When it snows, Murong Jin doesn't let people hold an umbrella, just like that for an hour, two hours, he doesn't care if there is a layer of snow on his body, and no one can persuade him. Of course, except for Dongxian, who is a personal servant, no one else has persuaded him.

Today's snow was exceptionally heavy, and the palace road was quickly paved with a layer, and it was too late to sweep it, so the shoes stepped on it, compacting the snow and making a "squeak" sound. Dongxian didn't listen to his master's words, not only held up an umbrella, but also took a fox fur and put it on Murong Jin.

Almost at the same time, Murong Jin lifted the fox fur and threw it on the ground, then got up and knocked down the oil-paper umbrella in Dongxian's hand, and said coldly: "Don't you understand my words?" ”

The purple bamboo-based umbrella was immediately disfigured after it landed, making a crisp sound.

"Your Highness." Dongxian knelt on the ground and buried his head deeply, his voice with a hint of pleading.

Murong Jin's eyes were full of anger, "Get out-"

"Your Highness, the Imperial Doctor said that you are cold to the bones, and you can't stand the cold anymore."

Murong Jin lay back in his chair and ignored him.

"Your Highness, go back to the palace."

"Your Highness, go back to the palace."

......

"Your Highness, if Niangniang is still here, I definitely don't want to see you like this."

"Your Highness......"

"If the queen mother was still here, how could I be like this," Murong Jin suddenly spoke, a rare smile tugged at the corner of his lips, and said softly: "It's snowing, go back." ”

Dongxian knew that he wanted him to go back alone, but he didn't leave. He found that there was a thick and cold shadow in the corner of Murong Jin's eyes, and just by looking at it, he felt that he was about to be engulfed. Dongxian didn't know what it was, but he always felt uneasy, if he really left, would he never see his master again.

"Your Highness, go back." Dongxian persuaded again.

"......" Murong Jin simply closed his eyes and ignored it.

Dong Xian thought for a moment, then ran out, towards Qi Ming Palace.

Now, there is only one person who can persuade the master, and that is Your Majesty.

It's just that Dongxian just ran a few steps when he bumped into a person. This person is wearing a red fox fur, a golden crown and bundled hair, and his facial features are somewhat similar to Emperor Yan, and he still looks like a young man.

Dongxian hurriedly retreated and knelt down, "His Royal Highness King Rui, the slave should die!" ”

The young man who was called King Rui gently patted his wrinkled clothes, and his voice was a little displeased: "You are a slave of which palace you are, you are so bold." ”

Dongxian said in a trembling voice: "Back to Your Highness, the slave is the ...... of the Floating Moon Palace"

"Fuyue Palace," King Rui interrupted him, "Is your master Murong Jin?" ”

"Yes."

"Are you still in the plum garden?" King Rui looked at the plum garden not far away and asked.

Dong Xian said: "Your Royal Highness has been in the plum garden for half a day today, and it is useless for the servants to persuade him, can His Royal Highness King Rui ......" As he was talking, King Rui had already walked towards the plum garden, muttering in his mouth: "What is the matter?" ”

When King Rui saw Murong Jin, whose eyes were closed and his face was pale, he was also shocked in his heart, and asked while untying the fox fur, "What's going on?" ”

Dong Xian was silent.

King Rui patted Murong Jin, "Are you still awake?" The latter remained motionless and unresponsive.

There was no umbrella today, and there was snow outside the fox fur, but fortunately it was still warm inside. King Rui wrapped Murong Jin in a fox fur and picked him up and walked out, mocking Dongxian and roaring, "Go and report to Your Majesty—"

Murong Jin is not heavy, but King Rui is only a sixteen-year-old boy, and the plum garden to the Floating Moon Palace is not close, and the road is not easy. It's just that the person in his arms didn't move at all, and his breathing was very weak, so King Rui had to speed up his steps.

As soon as he arrived at the Floating Moon Palace, King Rui raised his head and shouted, "Come on, quickly pass on the imperial doctor-" When he walked to the front of the collapse, King Rui's hand shook and he almost didn't throw anyone out.

After a group of palace people went in and out to settle Murong Jin, King Rui ordered someone to bring a hand stove to warm up by the charcoal basin.

The imperial doctor also came after a short time, and after diagnosing the pulse, he sighed and said, "Thanks to His Royal Highness King Rui for bringing people back in time, otherwise these four highnesses are afraid that they will lose half their lives......"

King Rui was also slightly surprised, "Why is it so serious?" ”

"After that incident, His Royal Highness often stayed outside all day long, and this midwinter gale was difficult even if there was no rain or snow. After going on for so many days, the cold air enters the body, coupled with the depression that is difficult to solve, no matter how good the body is, it has to be dragged down. This time he has been recuperated, but he will have to leave a root of the disease in the future," the imperial doctor said as he prescribed medicine, "If Your Highness has no other orders, the minister will retreat first." ”

King Rui waved his hand thoughtfully, "Stand down." ”

After about half an hour, Dong Xian came back with a sad face, "Your Highness, Your Majesty, he ......"

King Rui said: "Your Majesty, he won't come, right, this king knows." ”

"Back to Your Highness, Your Majesty said that you have not handed over your homework to him for three days, so you must remember to go to Your Majesty today."

King Rui's body stiffened, and he couldn't care about anything else, grabbed his fox fur and ran out, and didn't forget to tell Dongxian: "If Your Majesty asks, just say that this king has already returned to the house when you come back, understand?" ”

Dongxian was stunned, and saw that King Rui had run to the gate of the palace, and by coincidence, he was bumping into Emperor Yan who had just arrived.

King Rui had a bad heart, but he still said with a hippie smile: "Brother Huang, you are finally here, and my brother has been waiting here for a long time." ”

Emperor Yan was already very anxious when he heard about Murong Jin, but now he saw that King Rui was even more angry, so he said angrily: "Murong Shu, you get out of here!" ”

King Rui took a breath, so he had no choice but to follow in, and told him what had happened before and after and the instructions of the imperial doctor.

Seeing that Emperor Yan was still expressionless, Murong Shu couldn't help but say, "Brother Huang, I forgive my brother for daring to ask, what are your plans for the future?" ”
