"Let this prince enter the palace? What's the matter? Situ Shaogong said in a deep voice to the eunuch who came to deliver the word in his overalls.

It's just an inquiring tone, but this has already made the other party feel a strong sense of oppression.

"Back to the crown prince, the emperor hasn't seen you for many days, so I miss you very much, so I want to invite you into the palace to talk." After thinking about it for a long time, the eunuch said such an excuse.

In their eyes, this prince has always been unpredictable, and if he told the truth, it was difficult to guarantee that the prince would not turn his face, so for the sake of his own life, he still didn't dare to tell the truth.

"Hmph, what if Prince Ben doesn't go?" Situ Shaogong's eyes quickly flashed a touch of complexity, and he snorted coldly.

When the other party heard this, he was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt down and said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, if you don't go, how can the slave be on a mission!" If the emperor is furious, the minion can't even save his head. When the words fell, the other party kept kowtowing and begging.

Situ Shaogong groaned slightly: "Okay, get up, this prince will go with you." ”

At that moment, the eunuch was overjoyed, and he didn't say thank you when he got up, but he wondered in his heart whether the prince would be angry with him after he learned the emperor's intentions after entering the palace, but he couldn't care so much about it now. So the two of them went into the palace with their own hearts.

In the imperial study, Situ Lei waited for a long time, and when he heard that Situ Shaogong was coming, he immediately smiled.

As soon as Situ Shaogong entered the door, he said happily: "Gong'er, why have you lost weight after not seeing you for many days?" ”

Situ Shaogong wanted to say something, but finally endured it, but the corners of his lips hooked up a cold arc. "What the hell are you looking for me?"

The indifferent and detached words made Situ Lei's enthusiasm suddenly diminished a lot, he wanted to get angry, and instantly thought that his son had not always treated him like this for so many years, shouldn't he have gotten used to it a long time ago?

"Gong'er, I heard that you like a woman in Dongli Kingdom very much, and my father is relieved now." Situ Lei wiped away the anger in his heart and said with a smile.

Situ Shaogong's eyes did not change, and he said with a smile: "You are well-informed." Seeing that his son did not deny it, Situ Lei's smile on his face became even stronger, "That being the case, then it would be great, at your father's birthday banquet in a few days, you will also bring that woman into the palace for me to see." By the way, which daughter of Dongli Country is she? ”

Although Situ Lei did not intend to interfere in his son's lifelong affairs, it was still necessary for him to understand the situation of the crown princess in the future.

"Heh, my business has nothing to do with you, and besides, I like who doesn't need other people's interference!"

Situ Shaogong's voice was slightly angry, and the big hand in his sleeve was slowly retracted, but he didn't expect someone to hit the girl so soon.

"Presumptuous, is this the tone you should have when talking to your father?" Situ Lei shouted angrily.

He really can't do anything about this son, he has been treating him as an enemy for so many years. He hopes that his son can no longer hate him and enjoy the family happiness of father's love and filial piety.

"Father? Oh, I never thought you were my father! Situ Shaogong's voice condensed, paused slightly, and continued, "Who I like has nothing to do with anyone, and besides, I will never let anyone calculate her!" So, I'll never let her show up at your birthday party! After Situ Shaogong finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the imperial study.

"You, you, you......" Situ Lei was so angry that his chest rose and fell.

There was sadness and desolation in his angry eyes. It was his negligence that made a big mistake back then, but over the years he has been introspecting and always trying to make up for the mistakes he made at the beginning, but this son didn't give him a chance.

The father-in-law Gao who was guarding outside the door of the hall heard the dispute inside, and then saw Situ Shaogong leaving, and when he entered the hall, he saw Situ Lei sitting in front of the desk with his forehead in his hand, with a desolate face.

He couldn't help but comfort, "Your Majesty, don't be sad, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still young and self-willed, and he can't understand your difficulties at all, and one day he will understand your hard work." ”

Gonggong Gao has served by Situ Lei's side for many years, and he is also very worried when he sees that his master has been immersed in deep self-blame and guilt for so many years.

"Oh, that's it." Situ Lei waved his hand and said, "I don't have any luxury. ”

Situ Shaogong returned to the mansion, and although he tried his best to hide it in front of Shui Ningyan, he was as smart as Shui Ningyan and still noticed that Situ Shaogong was in a bad mood after entering the palace.

At that moment, she turned her back on Situ Shaogong and summoned the dark one to ask about Situ Shaogong's entry into the palace. Secretly groaned for a while, and replied: "Miss Shui, this is the case, the emperor heard that you were in the prince's mansion out of nowhere, so he wanted to invite you into the palace on his fiftieth birthday, but the master strongly objected. ”

When he said this, he said to himself: "Actually, the emperor really cares about our master, but the master has always refused to forgive the emperor because of the old things." In fact, his subordinates all felt that the emperor was a little pitiful. ”

Shui Ningyan's heart moved, and he immediately asked, "What is it that your master is worried about?" ”

Secretly sighed and said: "That's the case, the emperor has just ascended the throne, and the foundation is unstable, so he has to rely on some ministers, so he chose the daughter of the important minister to enter the palace as a concubine and concubine again and again, and the queen who died of the immortal died depressed because of this, so our master has always thought that the emperor broke his promise to the queen, so he blamed the queen's death on the emperor's head." The emperor's concern and connivance for our master over the years, his subordinates see it in the eyes, if the emperor is really wrong, then everything he has done over the years should also make up for the mistakes he made before. ”

After listening to Shui Ningyan, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, it seemed that it was another story of a harem woman who was obsessed with the emperor.

Seeing Shui Ningyan silent for a long time, he continued: "The subordinates have followed the master for so long, in fact, the subordinates can see that the master also has the emperor in his heart, but he has always refused to admit it. The last time the emperor was poisoned, the master was very worried. In fact, the subordinates really don't want to see the master torturing themselves like that, obviously they care about the emperor very much, but they have to face it like an enemy, he is actually torturing himself at all, if one day the master can let go of the burden in his heart, it would be great. ”

Shui Ningyan heard this, and suddenly there was a thought in her heart, Situ Shaogong helped her so much, and now she should also do something for this man.

Thinking of this, Shui Ningyan said to the dark: "Don't worry, I'll leave this matter to me." ”

As soon as these words came out, Dark was overjoyed, "Thank you, Miss Shui." ”

Dark One believes that the whole world is only afraid that his master will only listen to the words of Shui Ningyan, and only the woman in front of him will have a way to take his master.

Now that Shui Ningyan spoke, Dark suddenly felt a sense of relief in his heart, since Miss Shui was willing to take this errand, I believe that the matter has been half successful.

As soon as Shui Ningyan and Dark Yi finished talking, Duan Fusu, Ye Qingyi and Mo Rulian all came to say goodbye.

"What's wrong? Are you going to say goodbye en masse? Shui Ningyan said with some surprise.

"Yes, it took too long to come out this time, and I haven't helped you find the Fuxi Sword so far, so I plan to leave the Stygian Moon Kingdom and search around." Duan Fusu said with a smile.

"Ningyan, I have been out for many days, although I, the prince, have always been a little unprofessional, but a flying pigeon has sent a message to me, saying that my father has been in poor health recently, so I am a little worried." Huangfu Yu opened his lips and said.

"That's right, although my grandfather handed me over to you, but the manly man, you still have to go out and break through by yourself." Ye Qingyi continued.

In fact, what the three of them said in their hearts was that now they could all see that Situ Shaogong had captured Shui Ningyan's heart, could they not stay and find abuse.

It's such a sad place, that's why they want to leave. Originally, they planned to go to Yama Mountain with Shui Ningyan this time to find herbs and cultivate their feelings, but who would have thought that in the end, Situ Shaogong would take the lead, so now looking at this woman looking at Situ Shaogong's gaze is obviously different from when they looked at them, if they stay any longer, they will definitely go crazy with jealousy.

However, they didn't plan to give up, if one day Situ Shaogong did something sorry for Shui Ningyan, they would definitely not let Situ Shaogong go, and they would pursue Shui Ningyan again, just because the woman in front of them was the love of their life. No woman will ever be able to take her place.

Shui Ningyan saw that a few people had made up their minds, and they didn't force them to stay at the moment, so she said with a smile: "Well, there is no feast in the world." Ye Qingyi, it's best if you think so, remember to come on. Men should make their own way out of the world. ”

When Ye Qingyi heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched fiercely, originally he thought that Shui Ningyan would show some reluctance after hearing his words, but not only did the result be, but it seemed that this woman was still very happy.

For a while, Ye Qingyi felt that his young heart had been severely hit. Forget it, anyway, this woman only has that Situ Shaogong in her heart now, and he still walks well, out of sight and out of mind.

"Mr. Mo, are you leaving?" Shui Ningyan's gaze fell on Mo Rulian, and he frowned slightly.

"That's right, I came out this time because I heard that you were going to Yama Mountain, because I didn't feel at ease, so I came to see Now that you have obtained the sweet flower, the snake venom of the junior brother can also be solved, I will leave, after all, I have been away from the academy for many days, and I can't rest assured." The corners of Mo Rulian's lips were filled with a warm smile, and she spoke.

"Well, then I thought I wouldn't force you to stay." Shui Ningyan smiled, "There will always be a day when they meet." In this way, I wish you all the best of luck. ”

That night, Situ Shaogong prepared a feast in the mansion and entertained Duan Fusu, Ye Qingyi, Huang Fuyu, and Mo Rulian.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, the four of them said goodbye and set out on their own journey.
