Chapter 162
The process of finding someone was very fast, or at all, the fourth prince was timidly brought over by Hongpaw.
As soon as Qin Bairui saw him, his resentment immediately had a place to vent, but as soon as the words came out, he was still polite: "Fourth prince, where did you run away quietly, but it made us anxious."
The fourth prince raised his head, and there was still a teardrop on his long eyelashes, which made everyone present sigh in their hearts.
Then I saw this skinny little child step forward quickly, directly crossed Qin Bairui, and grabbed Zhong Shuyu's hand: "Sister, can you stay with me for one night?"
Zhong Xiyu was stunned for a moment, looked up at the sky, and saw that the stars and moon were indeed hanging high, so he agreed, sent someone to the prince's mansion to talk to Labadena, and respectfully asked the fourth prince to follow Chunhe to the wing.
But I didn't want the four princes to still hold Zhong Zhiyu's hand tightly, and looked at her beggingly: "Sister, can I eat something more?"
This time, everyone present was stunned, and everyone's eyes turned from his face to his stomach.
It's a pity that the clothes on his body really don't fit, and I can't tell if his belly is round or not.
No one spoke, and there was a hint of embarrassment in the air.
Seeing that everyone had not replied for a long time, the fourth prince's eyes darkened, and the hand holding Zhong Zhuyu also relaxed his strength, and there was still a trace of coolness in his fingertips.
"Absolutely"
Seeing him like this, Zhong Xiyu hurriedly replied, squatting down and asking him while holding his hand tightly, "What do you want to eat, let Chun and his sister go to the kitchen for you." ”
The eyes of the fourth prince lit up suddenly, the circles under his eyes were still a little red, the other hand that was not held was clenched into a fist, and there was some hesitation between his eyebrows: "Can I eat a white steamed bun?"
"White steamed buns" Qin Bairui also squatted down to look at him at eye level, the resentment against him in his heart had long disappeared, and a big hand rubbed his head vigorously, with a hearty smile: "The fourth prince looks down on my Qin Mansion What is delicious about white steamed buns, listen to my brother's words, how about eating braised elbows, the braised elbows from my Qin family are a must."
The fourth prince tilted his head and looked at Qin Bairui with some kindness: "What is a braised elbow?"
Qin Bairui choked: "The braised elbow is the big pig's trotters you ate at the dinner." ”
Recalling the dinner, the four princes subconsciously smashed their mouths, and then nodded vigorously: "Okay"
However, Zhong Zhiyu slanted Qin Bairui, a little worried that the child would not digest the greasy food at night, so he said in a roundabout way: "Didn't you eat enough at the dinner of the four princes, but what is not appetizing?"
"I'm full." The fourth prince always felt weak in his heart when he faced Zhong Zhuyu, and he didn't have the naturalness when he talked to Qin Bairui: "I still feel hungry." ”
He said so, what else could Zhong Xiyu do, he had to let Chunhe go to the hot elbow, and also prepared the white steamed buns he had before, and then took his hand and walked to the wing.
"Where have you been before, why don't you go with Labadena"
The fourth prince tilted his head and thought about who Labadena was, and then his head slowly lowered, and his words were full of fear: "I'm afraid of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." ”
Zhong Zhiyu raised his eyebrows, turned his head sideways to let the subordinates who followed him go farther, and then continued to ask: "Why does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince bully you?"
The fourth prince shook his head and nodded again: "I don't know how to say it, anyway, I panicked when I saw him, they have always looked down on me." ”
Zhong Zhuyu was a little surprised, and then saw that this little child, who was not as tall as her waist, raised her head, and her face was full of sincerity: "Sister, you are a good person, I knew you were a good person at the first time I saw you." ”
“”
Zhong Zhiyu was silent, feeling that his throat was a little dry: "Then you are wrong, I am not a good person." ”
The fourth prince's heart trembled, the hand he was holding also trembled slightly, his fingertips curled, and he immediately straightened out: "My sister lied, my sister was willing to take me in, and she would give me something to eat, and she never looked down on me."
Zhong Shuyu stopped, squatted down and looked at him again: "Then what if I pretended to be these?"
The four princes were at a loss.
"If I pretended to be just to please you, do you still think I'm a good person?"
A trace of helplessness flashed in the eyes of the fourth prince, and one hand subconsciously reached to his mouth to gnaw his nails, and remembered that his grandmother said that it was indecent, so he hurriedly put it down.
"He's a good guy." His voice was soft and glutinous, like a boiled pumpkin porridge: "It's no good for you to please me, it's more like I'm making an excuse to take care of me than to please me." ”
Zhong Xiyu was silent and looked at the four princes who were a little excited: "Do you read on weekdays?"
"Nope." The fourth prince shook his head, but there was no obvious emotion: "But Mama will teach me to read." ”
"Are you eleven years old this year, haven't you been arranged to study" Zhong Shuyu frowned, and changed his words: "You are quite thoughtful." ”
was praised by others.
The fourth prince's heart was beating with a pop, and he showed his first smile of the day: "Thank you, sister." ”
Zhong Zhiyu looked at this little child who jumped happily step by step because of a compliment, and his heart turned a thousand times.
While speaking, Zhong Zhiyu sent him to the wing, and instructed Hongclaw to take good care of him before dragging his tired body back to the main courtyard.
Qin Bairui had been waiting in the room for a long time, and when he saw Zhong Zhuyu coming back, he diligently poured water for her.
"What are your plans for these four princes?"
Zhong Zhiyu touched his face: "Is my mind so obvious?"
"I don't know you yet, so I can't afford to be early."
"That's right." Zhong Zhiyu took a sip of tea with a smile, and then said: "Actually, this is just an idea of mine, and I don't know what to do in the end." ”
"Hmm," Qin Bairui made a deaf look.
So Zhong Shuyu told Qin Bairui everything Labadena told her.
"So, it's the King of Qi"
Qin Bairui was silent for a while before asking.
"It's hard to say, we don't have evidence." Zhong Zhiyu said this, but there was no worry on his face.
Qin Bairui understood: "So what do you think, let's hear it." ”
So Zhong Zhuyu sat down closer to Qin Bairui: "Now aren't we vacillating between the two candidates of the crown prince and the king of Qi, then let's just do it for both of us." ”
Qin Bairui was surprised: "Tell me in detail"
"Isn't Labadena suspicious of King Qi's rebellion, then let's just help the emperor solve him first, and the matter of Tongbei Valley, whether it was done by the prince or not, will be on the prince's head."
Qin Bairui felt that this matter was reliable: "In this way, we can take the clear road to solve the two of them."
Zhong Zhiyu nodded: "That's right, and just now, I even thought about our back road." ”
Qin Bairui looked at her eyes, and suddenly blessed his heart: "Four princes"
Zhong Zhiyu raised his eyebrows and smiled.
