On the second day, after going to the study and leaving school, Yan Qihuo hurriedly prepared to leave the palace.

Xiao Anzi cried with a sad face and asked Yan Rongling for help: "Sixth prince, please persuade the master, the queen mother said that the master is not allowed to leave the palace." ”

Yan Qihuo was a little embarrassed, and said angrily: "The master is revenge when he leaves the palace, what nonsense are you talking about!" ”

Yan Rongling handed the packed book to Xiao Chengzi, and said with a smile: "Ninth brother, what kind of revenge is this, you have to go out every day to report it?" ”

Yan Shaoxun was also a little surprised, since Yan Rongling and Yan Qihuo went out together this time, he always felt that he had been ostracized and isolated.

Now that Yan Qi is out of the palace, he doesn't know.

Yan Qihuo's feminine and handsome face blushed slightly, and he said in a rough voice: "That man's wife wanders around the street every day, and now that all the countries in the capital are coming, I am going to look at her, so as not to lose the face of our Da Zhou." ”

Yan Shaoxun smiled dumbly, and teased: "It turned out to be a young Mu Ai, and the ninth brother has grown up." ”

Yan Qi hustle the back of his head, straightened up the inch-long pigtail and shook it, and said unhappily: "Fifth brother, no matter how blind my eyes are, I won't look down on a man's wife." There are so many gentle and virtuous famous ladies in Da Zhou, and it is better to pick one with your eyes closed than a man's wife. ”

Yan Shaoxun was not annoyed, and said with a smile: "I have written down the words of the ninth brother today, and the sixth brother will also be a witness." When he slaps his face every day, it's not too late to make fun of him again. ”

Yan Rongling couldn't help laughing, and said to Yan Qi: "Since that's the case, then I won't stop you." Only one, go out with enough people, pay attention to safety and don't be alone. ”

Xiao Anzi heard Yan Rongling say this, and his face fell.

Yan Qihuo kicked over, lowered his voice and scolded: "Don't go quickly!" If you dare to tell the queen mother, I will let you wash the bucket. ”

Waiting for Yan Qihuo to walk away, Yan Shaoxun smiled and said, "This time, the sixth brother went out, but he made a great contribution, and I haven't congratulated you yet." ”

Yan Rongling hurriedly said ashamedly: "Fifth brother, don't make fun of me, this time I escaped from death, thanks to Mingzhu and the ninth brother, as well as General Zhang and Lao Guogong." Otherwise, I don't know it now, and I can't get out. ”

"Does the sixth brother know whose person is Yin Hu Luo, the Tongzhou Mansion?"

Yan Shaoxun's temptation, Yan Rongling did not leak, and replied: "We were drugged and locked in the dungeon that day, and later there was an assassination, but unfortunately Hu Luo died, and no one knew who was behind the scenes. ”

Seeing Yan Rongling say this, Yan Shaoxun didn't want to ask again.

Changed the subject and said: "Hasn't Cousin Mingzhu been released yet?" The Imperial Grandmother would not let us visit. ”

Yan Rongling thought of Gu Fanghua and smiled: "This time it's really a record, it's rare for Mingzhu to honestly receive the punishment for so long." After a while, I went to Cining Palace to ask for peace and asked the imperial grandmother to intercede for Mingzhu. ”

Yan Shaoxun was a little envious: "It's a pity that my father didn't let me go with me, otherwise our brothers can also share blessings and difficulties." ”

"If the fifth brother also goes, there will be no one around my father to talk to him."

Yan Rongling smiled faintly and was about to return to the palace. It happened that the little eunuch of the Qianqing Palace came over to pass the word: "The slave has seen the fifth prince and the sixth prince." The emperor dictated and sent the six princes to the imperial study. ”

"Okay, I'll go right away. Fifth brother, I'll go first. ”

After Yan Rongling left, the smile on Yan Shaoxun's face faded, and the look in his eyes could not hide his jealousy. Emperor Hong Zheng rarely passed on him to speak alone in the past, but he often passed on Yan Rongling to go.

However, when it comes to Halloween, it's time for yourself to shine. Which of the three sons is better or worse, the ministers have their own judgment, and the father should also look at it differently.

Yan Rongling came to the imperial study, and Emperor Hong Zheng was reviewing the folds, and said casually: "You sit down first, and wait for me to review these folds." ”

However, Yan Rongling did not sit, but took a few steps forward, rolled up his sleeves, took the imperial ink in the hands of the eunuch who served the ink, and sharpened the ink skillfully with his elbows.

Imperial ink is made from the finest pine smoke ink, cinnabar, and gold powder. Yan Rongling grinds the moderate shade, and the red gold and cinnabar are mixed in the ink, exuding a faint ambergris.

Emperor Hong Zheng looked up and didn't speak, and the other little eunuchs retreated one after another, leaving only the prince next to him in the imperial study.

After Emperor Hong Zheng finished reviewing the recital 2, he put down the red pen, moved his wrist and said, "Rong Ling, I heard that the Honglu Pavilion has been full recently?" ”

Yan Rongling replied respectfully: "Father's Halloween, naturally all countries come to congratulate. Not only the Honglu Pavilion, but also the larger inns in the capital are also overcrowded. ”

"Don't talk to make me happy, the inn is overcrowded, isn't it because of Qiuqiu? How many students are dragging their families to Beijing to catch the exam, and there are many natural people. ”

"Father is wise, as soon as the gate of this tribute courtyard is closed, he will be able to leap into the dragon gate in the future, but he is the protégé of the Son of Heaven, of course, so that the world's talents are flocking."

Emperor Hongzheng said with a smile: "Water can carry a boat and also overturn a boat, Rong Ling, you have to remember to know people and make good use of them." ”

Yan Rongling took the opportunity to say: "The sons and daughters must follow the teachings of their father. Xiao Yao also participated in the Autumn Festival this time, and his sons had promised him that if he could be named on the gold list, his sons would be crowned kings and open mansions in the future, and he would be a long history. ”

"Learn to be the chief of the palace with Xiao Yao's talent, but it's overkill. He can willingly follow you, it seems that Tongzhou did not go in vain this time. ”

Yan Rongling was a little embarrassed and said: "Erchen has embarrassed his father, if it weren't for Mingzhu and the ninth brother, he would really be reduced to a prisoner." ”

"Not really, you did a great job this time. When people are young, they will inevitably be fooled and suffer, and it is not a bad thing to fall a little more. That night was a tough battle, and if you didn't have real skills, you wouldn't have survived. ”

Emperor Hong Zheng has learned the truth of that night from many sources.

Half of the assassins at that time were going towards Yan Rongling, although Xiao Yao helped him at that time, but Yan Rongling was indeed extraordinary in martial arts.

Speaking of that night, Yan Rongling looked solemn and said in a low voice: "If it weren't for the Royal Forest Army and the Secret Guards to protect each other, so many assassins, even if the retainers were three heads and six arms, they wouldn't be able to kill them." ”

"Well, I have already rewarded Dou Ran, and Xiao Jiu and Mingzhu should also be rewarded. Speaking of which, why hasn't Mingzhu seen her for so long? ”

Emperor Hong Zheng felt a little strange and asked.

Wang Gonggong glanced at Yan Rongling, seeing that he didn't plan to speak, he stepped forward and replied: "Your Majesty, as soon as the lord of Mingzhu County returned to the palace, she was copied by the Queen Mother and her old man's Guan Buddha Hall. ”

Emperor Hong Zheng smiled: "I know, but it's the fifth day today, right?" Is she still honestly punished? ”

"Father, this time Cousin Mingzhu was really scared, the corpses in the courtyard were half a person high, and it is estimated that he will come back to meditate in the Buddha Hall, and he will be shocked."

Yan Rongling's words caused Emperor Hong Zheng to laugh heartily: "Mingzhu's wild girl will be afraid?" But I heard that the assassin was killed, so she and Zhong Yatou barbecued meat on the spot, and Xiao Jiu didn't have the courage to do so. ”

The prince also laughed and said: "The county lord is a woman who does not let her eyebrows." ”

Emperor Hong Zheng was in a good mood and said with a smile: "Go, you accompany me to greet the Queen Mother, and by the way, meet the pearl of our palms that have made great contributions!" ”
