Eunuch Xia suddenly panicked, and when others heard the emperor's summons, they all ran over, but what is the situation with this Pei Heng? The emperor invited him, but he dared to refuse, this grudge was actually recorded on the emperor's head?

Pei Shuo followed behind, pulled Pei Heng's shirt and said, "Brother, don't be reckless at this time. If the emperor is angry, it is not a joke. Besides, aren't you very worried about Zhang Jing's situation? Entering the palace is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you. ”

Speaking of Zhang Jing, Pei Heng trembled a little in his heart. After all, Pei You is the person he cares about the most.

And Qiao Ying is the person Qiao You cares about the most. Qiao Ying is now worried about Zhang Jing's affairs, it can be said that she is worried about her stomach and has trouble sleeping, if she takes this opportunity not to enter the palace, when will it be?

He thought about it, quickly turned his head, looked at Eunuch Xia and said, "Grandpa Xia, I was joking with you just now, Grandpa Xia, don't take it to heart." ”

Eunuch Xia has always been a senior minion, and it is common for the master to lose his temper, and he has never dared to care about it, so he said to Pei Heng with a smile: "What are you talking about, third prince?" Jokes and jokes, there is laughter, how can our family make such a big deal because of a joke? ”

As he spoke, he walked up to Pei Heng with a smile on his face, and said with a flattering smile: "I don't know if His Royal Highness the Prince has laughed enough, if he has laughed enough, he might as well go to the palace with our family, right?" ”

Pei Heng looked at the flattering fake face of the eunuch Xia, and he couldn't wait to vomit last night's overnight dish.

But as the saying goes, don't stretch out your hand and don't hit a smiling person, this Xia eunuch is just a dog raised by the emperor. Naturally, he doesn't have the ability to compete with the emperor, so why bother so much with this pug?

He tidied up his clothes, and then followed Eunuch Xia into the car and hurried all the way to the palace.

The emperor put down the red pen in his hand, looked at Pei Heng and said with a smile: "Back?" ”

Pei Heng looked at the emperor with a grudge, and said coldly: "I don't dare to enter the palace without permission." ”

The emperor closed the fold in his hand, stood up from the dragon chair, walked to Pei Heng's side and said with a smile: "Heng'er, is this blaming the emperor?" As the saying goes, pity the hearts of parents in the world, in front of Qiao You and Li Ying, there is no way for me not to favor Li Ying. ”

Pei Heng was silent, just nodded quietly.

"It is rumored in the capital that you robbed the rich and helped the poor, and stopped the shopkeeper Liu who was about to run away, and they all praised you." The emperor was overjoyed and looked at Pei Heng, as if waiting for his response.

"The child is just pulling out a knife to help when the road is uneven, and there is nothing to be proud of." Pei Heng replied coldly.

The emperor sighed, smiled slightly, and said to Pei Heng: "I also regret driving you out of the palace that time. But do you know that the king of a country can't go back on his word, isn't it always looking for a step down the ladder? ”

Pei Heng looked at the emperor sneeringly and said with a smile: "I don't know what steps Your Majesty has found now?" ”

The emperor laughed, looked at Pei Heng and said: "Just because you rob the rich and help the poor this time, and do the right thing for heaven, I will restore your status as the third prince, what do you think?" ”

Pei Heng can now be said to be completely disappointed in the emperor. It's not enough to go back on your word, but to be so unreasonable.

The position of this prince, if you say deprivation, you will be deprived, and if you say that you will recover, you will be restored, which is even more irregular than the change of the weather.

I don't know when, Li Ying has already appeared in the conference hall, and said bluntly: "That's it, as the saying goes, Fuzi has no overnight hatred, so you promised your father." ”

Pei Heng looked at Li Ying coldly and said with a smile: "Promise my father, that means that I was right to help Qiao You intercede that day, and the person who should really be put in prison should be you?" ”

Pei Heng looked at Li Ying directly, Li Ying felt an unprecedented pressure, lowered her head, and didn't dare to look directly at him.

The emperor sighed, looked at Pei Heng reasonably, and said, "Okay, okay, let's still be father and son in the end." Besides, I am the Son of Heaven, you are so willful, it is inevitable that the world will talk about it. ”

Pei Heng walks the rivers and lakes on weekdays, and it can be said that it is commonplace for those coercion and temptation on the rivers and lakes, now that I think about it, the emperor is the real expert in this area.

However, he still looked at the emperor helplessly and said: "Since the emperor has restored me to be the third prince, I have nothing to excuse, but I don't want this to happen a second time!" ”

The emperor was suddenly overjoyed, looked at Pei Heng happily and said, "There is no next time, there is no next time." ”

With that, he continued to lower his head and review the mountains of folds on the table.

Pei Heng saw Li Ying following him, and asked unnaturally, "What are you doing with me?" Are you afraid that I will steal something from the palace? ”

Li Ying looked at Pei Heng with an aggrieved expression and said, "Brother Huang, what are you talking about?" The royal brother is the prince, so there is naturally a place for you in this palace, Li Ying just wants to accompany the imperial brother to visit the back garden. ”

Pei Heng snorted coldly and said with a smile: "The eldest princess has a lot of opportunities, and Weichen is still inconvenient to disturb. I'm going to go to the back garden, and if the princess doesn't trust her, she can send a few guards with her. ”

Li Ying was embarrassed by what she said, so she had to let go and let Pei Heng walk around the back garden by herself.

Pei Heng walked to the back garden and saw a scholar-like person sweeping the floor. Look at the clothes on his body, there is not a trace of dust, and then look at the way he grabs the broom, it seems to be very unprofessional, and it looks like he is writing on the ground.

He walked up to this servant, stared at it for a while, and found that it was Zhang Jing!

"Why are you here?" Pei Heng looked at Zhang Jing and couldn't wait to help him sweep the floor with a broom.

Zhang Jing swept the floor while looking at Pei Heng and said: "The third prince is auspicious, the third prince doesn't know, since the last incident, the princess has been in a bad mood, and she tried to force me to comply several times, but I refused." In a fit of rage, she belittled me to come here to clean up the fallen leaves. ”

"Hmph, clean up the fallen leaves!" Pei Heng smiled: "Doesn't this give you a chance to leave her?" ”

Zhang Jing smiled bitterly: "That's natural, although the work of the handyman is hard, but I don't have to face the princess's stalking, and I feel comfortable in my heart." ”

Pei Heng walked up to Zhang Jing in a low voice and asked: "The master and Qiao Ying are very concerned about the situation of the son, and Qiao Ying also said that she only agreed to leave if the son made a letter of resignation." ”

Zhang Jing looked at Pei Heng expressionlessly and said with a smile: "In that case, you tell her that the mountains are borderless, and the sky and the earth are together, but you dare to be with you." ”

Pei Heng took Zhang Jing's hands and said reverently: "In the vast sea of people, what are the requirements for being able to meet a loving and righteous person like Brother Zhang?" ”

With that, he walked in the direction of Qiao's mansion.

Qiao You was scared to death, and he had been waiting at the door, waiting for Pei Heng's news, when he saw Pei Heng coming over from a distance, and hurriedly greeted him and asked, "How is it?" Have the emperor and princess ever felt sorry for you? ”

Pei Heng shook his head, looked at Qiao You and said, "No, Your Majesty praised me for coming, saying that I hijacked Shopkeeper Liu, which can be regarded as maintaining the stability of the capital." ”

"What about the princess?"

Pei Heng smiled and said, "Princess, it's not like that?" You don't get what you deserve. ”

Qiao You asked with concern, "What about Zhang Jing?" My sister is most concerned about this matter, he wasn't forced to do anything, right? ”

Pei Heng smiled slightly, looked at Qiao You and said, "What can he do?" However, because I offended the princess, I was now relegated to the back garden to sweep the fallen leaves, but he asked me to pass a message to Qiao Ying, saying, the mountains are edgeless, the heaven and the earth are together, and I dare to be with you. ”

Qiao You frowned, looked at Pei Heng and said, "It's really infatuated, and he has always been in love with our family Qiao Ying, but he has paid so much for Qiao Ying, how can our Qiao family repay him?" ”

Pei Heng gently poked Qiao You's head and laughed quietly: "You really don't understand love anymore." Since it's consensual, what do you talk about in return? The best return, of course, is that Qiao Ying grows old with him, and his children and grandchildren are all over the place. ”

"I hate it, Brother Pei, what are you talking about?" It turned out that Qiao Ying saw Qiao You go out for so long, and she was not at ease in her heart, so she ran outside.

But when he just ran over, he saw Pei Heng come back and say those words to Qiao You, so he hid behind the tree and didn't make a sound.

However, now when I heard that I was going to grow old with Zhang Jing and my children and grandchildren were all over the place, I felt too shy to do it, so I hurriedly came up to interrupt.

"We're going to tell you later, but now that you know it, there's no need to hide it from you. In the future, if you have something to tell Zhang Jing, just tell the eldest brother, when the eldest brother enters the palace, he will help you pass the word! ”

Qiao Ying smiled slightly and looked at Pei Heng noncommittally.

Qiao You looked anxious, shook Qiao Ying's shoulder and reminded, "Speak quickly, big brother is waiting for you!" ”

Qiao Ying still shook her head painfully, did not speak, and did not express.

"Second sister, don't believe in the eldest brother." Qiao You saw that there was no persuasion, so he used the agitation method.

Qiao Ying secretly thought to herself in her heart, there are people watching everywhere in this palace, and whatever she says will be passed on. What's more, Zhang Jing was originally a person under the special guardianship of the princess.

Therefore, even if she has more things to say in her heart, she can only turn into wordless sadness.

"Second sister, don't cry," Qiao You took Qiao Ying's hand and persuaded as she said: "Crying can't solve the problem, besides, knowing that you are crying, Zhang Jing can only be more sad." ”

Pei Heng also nodded, looked at Qiao Ying and said, "What your sister said is right, if you are afraid that others will leak secrets, you can use secret words." ”

Qiao Ying sighed heavily, looked at Pei Heng and said, "Secret language? Have we ever had a secret word with each other? Did we think we would have the result we have today? I knew that day, why did I have to rely on life and death in the first place? ”
