Xiao Yuan took his henchman Jun Wu out of the place where the princes lived along the weeping flower gate, and soon arrived at the northernmost gate of the palace.

After all, it is a palace, and the concubines in the palace have not all been brought over, although there is a bit of purge in the customs defense, but it is not as strict as when it was in the capital.

Jin Wuwei, who was guarding the door, saw that it was the fifth prince Xiao Yuan's bowed body, but he sank a little more, until after the crown prince was abolished, he was confined in the deep mansion of the Zongren Mansion, and the call of the five princes to seize the heir rose to the top, and now those people in the palace seem to be waiting for the five princes as the real princes.

"Your Highness?" Jin Wuwei, who was guarding the palace gate, hurriedly bowed down and greeted the five princes with a smiling face.

"No need to be polite," Xiao Yuan's voice was faint, but there was a little more impatience in his tone, when would he be able to walk around this palace at will, and he would not be checked if he was in that position, but he believed that this day would come soon.

Xiao Yuan's henchman Jun Wu handed the token in front of Jin Wuwei, and Jin Wuwei dared to take a closer look, that is, he glanced at it and sent the sign back respectfully.

Now the emperor's health is getting worse and worse, although the emperor does not admit that his body is deteriorating, and he has to order people to refine the pill every day, in a vain attempt to seek immortality, but he is not enough.

But the daily state affairs are so heavy, even if Emperor Chengping is strong, he can't handle so many official affairs, and among the several princes, only Xiao Yuan's Wen Taowu can still enter the eyes of Emperor Chengping.

Emperor Chengping had already ordered the fifth prince Xiao Yuan to enter and leave the palace at will with the token rewarded by the emperor, and Xiao Yuan has really become the prince of the prison country now.

Xiao Yuan also ignored the sincere fear of a small Jin Wuwei at the door, and went straight down the road towards his father's bedroom, and soon met Gonggong Li.

"Your Highness is well," Gonggong Li personally walked towards the dormitory with the chessboard.

Xiao Yuan frowned fiercely and looked at the white jade chessboard in Gonggong Li's hand, the whole body of that plate was polished with a rare whole piece of huge mutton fat jade, and the fine patterns carved on it were also surprising and abnormal, using the technique of miniature carving, which was definitely not ordinary.

"Gonggong Li, is this the chessboard used by my father, why haven't I seen it in my father's palace before?"

Gonggong Li's face was slightly stunned, it stands to reason that the fifth prince asked the emperor for his personal use, but he really couldn't help but reply when this lord asked, and it didn't matter if he occasionally crossed the rules.

"If you go back to Your Highness, this chessboard was also brought in by the Sixth Highness today, the emperor likes to play, and the Sixth Highness is worried that the emperor is a little bored living in this mountain, so he brought the chessboard."

Gonggong Li's words paused, but he didn't go into details, these words were enough for him to take a beating.

Xiao Yuan's face changed slightly, and then he smiled: "The sixth brother really has a heart, so I'll go see my father." ”

"Your Royal Highness," a look of embarrassment flashed across Gonggong Li's face, "Your Highness forgives your sins, and the old slave also has a few more words, just now the emperor told no one to come to the palace to say hello, and the emperor is a little tired now." ”

Xiao Yuan's brows frowned slightly, but then he stepped forward and walked in front of Gonggong Li, raised his hand and pointed at the chessboard in his hand, raised his handsome brows, and lowered his voice: "This time, the sixth brother is inside?" ”

The corner of Gonggong Li's eyes jumped fiercely, and after a pause, he still said cautiously: "If you go back to Your Highness, the emperor now sees such a chessboard and has a game of intention, accompanied by His Royal Highness Six." ”

After Gonggong Li said this, he was like an old monk in his meditation, as if he didn't say half a word of gossip, and even torture couldn't pry his mouth open.

Xiao Yuan secretly took a hard breath, if it was about martial arts, the brothers couldn't compare to him, and if it was about chess, they couldn't play the six princes alone.

Playing chess with his father, Xiao Yu seemed to be unable to sit still, so he took action so quickly.

The corners of Xiao Yuan's lips hooked up a faint smile, but the smile couldn't reach the end.

"Sure enough, the sixth brother is a clever person and will please his father, but as long as my father can be happy, I will be very happy as a son."

Gonggong Li nodded vigorously, and didn't say anything else, Xiao Yuan asked a few more polite words such as whether his father was well, and then left Emperor Chengping's bedroom quickly.

He had just turned to the mezzanine and was about to go to the queen mother's palace on the west side to take a look, but he didn't want to see Xiao Mu in an indigo brocade robe in the shadows of the trees, but he knelt straight at the door of Emperor Chengping's bedroom.

Xiao Yuan stopped, looked from a distance between the shadows of the trees, and found that this fourth brother, who had no sense of existence at all, was standing there like an annoying sculpture at this time.

On weekdays, his father hates this son very much, and Xiao Mu is also quite self-aware, and he never appears in front of his father, unless he comes out to show his face on important occasions.

"You go and inquire, why is Prince Mu kneeling here?" Xiao Yuan stopped and glanced at Xiao Mu, who was still kneeling straight at this time.

Jun Wu ordered him to hurriedly walk out, and after a short time, he rushed to Xiao Yuan, who was resting in the pavilion and waiting for news, he hurriedly bowed down and lowered his voice: "Your Highness, I heard that the Fourth Highness just went to the emperor to intercede. ”

"Oh?" Xiao Yuan's eyebrows raised, Xiao Mu is a very special person between several brothers, except for the prince's idiot who treats him as a thug, the rest of the princes are very disgusted with Xiao Mu, where are they willing to have anything to do with him, don't want him to have this relationship?

"Hehe, who is he pleading for?"

Jun Wu hurriedly lowered his voice and said: "I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that today is the Double Ninth Festival, I hope the emperor can take a look at His Royal Highness the former Prince in the Zongren Mansion, it is said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is sick." ”

Xiao Yuan was slightly stunned, he was actually pleading for His Royal Highness the Prince? But he knew about that idiot's illness, could he not know about his generosity?

It was not easy for him to wait for Xiao Che, who was a fool who dug his own grave and sent himself to the Zongren Mansion, he really didn't have a chance at all before, after all, among the children, only Xiao Che could get so much favor from his father.

Now that he has entered the Zongren Mansion, he will never come out.

"Hehe, Xiao Mu's unenlightened wood is also affectionate, when will you go to King Mu's Mansion with a gift, knock on the side and ask him what else he needs in the mansion now?"

Jun Wu didn't understand what his master meant, he was a little stunned for a while, Xiao Mu was a waste chess in the eyes of the emperor, why did his master's momentum envelop him?
