God knows how worried Zhao Yiyan was after learning that Zhongli was summoned by the emperor to leave.

Zhongli was stunned for a moment, and nodded with a quick smile.

"It's okay! It's just a casual conversation! ”

In order to reassure Zhao Yiyan, she even smiled and spoke.

"Big brother, look, aren't I safe and sound?"

"Well, it's okay, it's okay."

As he spoke, Zhao Yiyan took the reins of the horse and prepared to go back.

Zhongli looked at Zhao Yiyan's side face and smiled lightly, and his little face was full of teasing.

"Why is the eldest brother also surprised! But don't worry, I'm naturally not a fool, and I won't come with the emperor. And if the eldest brother dares to trespass on the palace gate today, maybe you, the general, will come to an end! ”

The emperor had long wanted to trouble Zhao Yiyan, but at this time, he still took the initiative to go up, and the emperor would definitely take him.

"Hmph, now surrounded by neighboring countries, as long as he doesn't worry about the apocalypse, he can do it!"

Zhao Yiyan turned to look at Zhongli and motioned for her to follow.

This is not the key, the key is that not only the neighboring countries are eyeing the fat piece of the apocalypse, but also the domestic country is not stopping now.

The crown prince was confined, and the court was originally turbulent, and the third prince was still calling for wind and rain outside, which seemed to be a source of internal and external troubles.

But the emperor didn't make any moves now, which had to make Zhao Yiyan vigilant.

But Zhongli didn't care about his eyes, but laughed, full of fun.

"Big brother, you actually said such a rebellious thing outside the palace, worried that someone would denounce you!"

As he spoke, he turned his head and looked around to see if there were any people around him who heard Zhao Yiyan say this.

"Big brother, where are you going?"

Following Zhao Yiyan's side, seeing that he was not going home with him, Zhongli asked.

"Eat!"

After speaking, he gave the reins in his hand to a small servant standing in front of the restaurant, and then raised his feet and entered the restaurant.

Look at this point in time, it's really time for lunch.

And he went to face the saint early this morning, waited for the emperor for so long, and he was still standing, until now, he didn't sit down to rest, especially when the huge palace was wandering around for so long, Zhongli's feet hurt and hurt, and he just wanted to find a place to sit down and rest for a while.

"What do you want, two?"

The shopkeeper immediately greeted him and asked.

"Send a few signature dishes to the room!"

"Okay, two guest officers, please come with me!"

Zhongli sat on the seat, bored looking at the scenery outside, enjoying the warm winter sun above his head, and suddenly thought of Zhao Shan'er who was in the palace before, and then suddenly turned to look at Zhao Yiyan.

"Does the eldest brother know anything about the Seventh Princess?"

Hearing this, Zhao Yiyan suddenly looked up at Zhongli opposite, with a look of surprise and suspicion, he frowned.

"Why do you suddenly mention the Seven Princesses? I also saw it back then, but it was too young, and Concubine Qi was the holy family, probably because of this seventh princess, who was born with good luck, and was born on the same day as His Majesty. ”

Zhongli nodded silently, he knew that Zhao Yiyan must not know him, otherwise he would have recognized it that day!

She stretched out her hand and rubbed her forehead, thinking about the conversation between herself and the Seventh Princess today, she always felt hairy in her heart.

"Why do you ask? Could it be that you met the Seventh Princess today? But it shouldn't matter, I heard that Your Majesty is very favored, and she is often taken with her when he meets ministers! ”

Zhongli smiled helplessly, it's because pampering is the problem!

But think about it, can you not be pampered? You can walk sideways in the study!

"Hehe, it's nothing, I just saw it in the imperial study, and I'm just curious. After all, not every princess can walk around so casually in the imperial study. ”

Zhongli snorted, but didn't tell the truth of the matter.

Zhao Yiyan instantly felt relieved when he heard this, and he didn't know if it was because he liked Zhongli and didn't want Zhongli to have contact with the royal people, or if he felt that he didn't like Zhongli to contact Zhao Shan'er.

"One step at a time! At least now! If I do something under the emperor's nose, I believe the emperor will not let me leave the capital. My home and my farm are in Canggu City, and I must go back! But since I'm here, I'm not here in vain. Anyway, everyone knows I'm a farmer, so I'll do what a farmer does. ”

Saying this, Zhongli squeezed his eyes at Zhao Yiyan, and his words were full of firmness, as if he had foreseen that he would definitely leave the capital safely!

Zhao Yiyan nodded, but he didn't have the same good self-confidence as Zhongli in his heart.

Zhongli didn't leave the capital for a day, and he was flustered all day.

"What are you going to do?"

Zhao Yiyan asked suspiciously.

Zhongli laughed, squeezed his eyes at Zhao Yiyan, and sold a pass.

"Not enough for outsiders!"

For this morning's face saint, Zhongli still had palpitations.

She didn't want to face the emperor right now, because she didn't have a lot of chips in her hand.

She only wants to protect her younger siblings, and if possible, rehabilitate her father, and as for the rest, it is completely out of her own consideration.

But the plan can't catch up with the changes, and now the situation is getting more and more deviated, and she can't help but get involved in this whirlpool, which she can't avoid.

However, in order to plan for the future, it seems that the plan she set before should be completed quickly.

Zhongli was even more determined about his goals at this time.

And at this time inside the palace.

Zhao Shan'er's mood was as lost as falling to the bottom.

"Princess, why is that Zhongli like this, the princess invited him to appreciate the plum and he dared to refuse, I really don't know what to do!"

The maid next to her looked at the princess, how could she not know that the princess was infatuated with the wrong payment?

So he spoke angrily.

"Shut up!"

Zhao Shan'er frowned, and immediately scolded sharply, and after speaking, she shook her sleeves fiercely, glared at the other party angrily, what are you yelling about? What are you yelling about? Do you have to let everyone know about the scandal of being rejected by Zhongli today?

Thinking of this, Zhao Shan'er threw off her sleeves and returned to her dormitory angrily.

The maid was going to say something, but seeing the princess's temper, she was so frightened that she shrank her head directly, and followed the princess honestly and quickly.

Zhao Shan'er became more and more sad the more she walked.

She has never been rejected, even her father is fond of her in every way, and she will immediately agree to whatever she wants.

The more she thought about it, the more sad Zhao Shan'er became, and the tears that had accumulated in her eyes also ran down her cheeks.

The crown princess and concubine had just come from Concubine Qi's mother, and she was preparing to leave the palace with her maid, when she happened to meet the crying and aggrieved seventh princess coming from afar.

"Madam, don't you see that is the Seventh Princess!"

A grandmother behind the crown princess suddenly pointed to a figure not far away and said.

The crown prince's concubine, Li Ruyun, looked in the direction pointed by the other party, and really saw a pretty figure, walking in a hurry.

She frowned and muttered involuntarily.

"What's wrong with the Seventh Princess?"

The seventh princess is nothing, but she is the favorite daughter of her father.

You must know that the situation of their prince has not been good recently, and it is also for this reason that he and the princess have visited the harem mothers and concubines in the past few days.

If you can attract the seventh princess to intercede for the crown prince......

Her eyes flickered, and she immediately took a few quick steps to meet Zhao Shan'er.

"Ouch, Seventh Sister, what's wrong? Which minion had the audacity to make you angry? You tell me, I'm going to give you a breath? ”

She is only the crown prince's concubine now, and she has no title, so she can only call herself me.

Zhao Shan'er was sad about Zhongli's rejection of her at this time, how could she be in the mood to deal with others?

What's more, relying on the emperor's favor, she is only a little close to the crown princess, let alone the prince's side concubine? So she nodded lightly at the other party, and she didn't mean to greet the other party at all, and walked straight past Li Ruyun's side.

The palace maid who followed behind the seventh princess watched the princess leave like this, and the prince's side concubine, who was standing on the side with a smile on her face, the palace maid could only salute and prepare to leave with the princess, with anxiety on her face.

If you enter Concubine Qi's palace like this, Niangniang will definitely be angry?

"Seventh sister, you wait."

Although Li Ruyun was annoyed in his heart, when he thought of the prince, he couldn't help but clench his fingers and forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and stopped Zhao Shan'er again with a smile.

Zhao Shan'er's porcelain white face was full of grievances at this time, and her eyes turned to stare at Li Ruyun with burning eyes.

"Little sister-in-law, you don't stay in the East Palace, what are you running outside every day? Could it be that now that the prince's brother is in decline, he wants to find another way out? ”

As soon as these words came out, many people around them directly changed their faces.

How can this be said casually?

Isn't this clear that Li Ruyun entered the harem to hook up with the emperor?

The maid's face also changed, she stretched out her hand and dragged Zhao Shan'er fiercely, and hurriedly asked Li Ruyun for her guilt.

"The side concubine forgives the sins. Today, Her Royal Highness the princess was confronted, and Xu was in a bad mood. She doesn't mean to discredit you. ”

The seventh princess also knew that she was speechless at this time, sniffed, her eyes were red, and she bowed to Li Ruyun a little awkwardly.

"Little sister-in-law, I'm sorry. I was just babbling nonsense! ”

Just saying that, thinking of Zhongli, she still felt sad in her heart.

"Haha, the seventh sister is innocent and cute, and the ice and snow are hearty, because the mood is inevitable. But what the hell is going on? Who has the audacity to make it difficult for you? ”

Li Ruyun pretended to be empathetic, not only forgave her, but also asked worriedly.

"It's not that Zhongli doesn't know what to do, the princess invited him to appreciate the plum, but he actually refused, no, the princess is sad!"

Before the seventh princess could speak, the palace maid behind her was the first to speak.

When the seventh princess heard Zhongli's name, she couldn't help but scold her angrily, so she gave Li Ruyun a salute and left here quickly.

"The Seventh Princess invited Zhongli to enjoy the plum blossoms? Who is Zhongli? ”

Li Ruyun didn't know anything about Zhongli, and he didn't know who Zhongli was, but the matter about the Seventh Princess must not be a trivial matter.

After she returned, she truthfully relayed the matter to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
