Wang Xiang and others were also standing next to him, but Emperor Wei only let Sheng Qian sit alone, although the expression on his face was calm, he didn't know what he thought in his heart. Wei Ci glanced at it and lowered his head.

"It's been snowing heavily these days, and it's rare to see it in the capital." Emperor Wei looked at the door of the main hall from afar, didn't know what he thought, and sighed. Wang Fu next to him nodded yes, and the prince held a wine glass under him, "Soon after the winter hunt, it will be the Spring Festival, but unfortunately the sons will have to leave for Huguang soon, and they can't spend the festival with their fathers, which is the unfilial piety of the sons." ”

The crown prince was reproached by Emperor Wei a few days ago, and this winter hunt was not his share. But in the end, I don't know what to think, Emperor Wei still lifted the prince's grounding, and now seeing him say this, he also raised his wine glass, and Wang Fu next to him poured half a glass for him, "If you go to Huguang and really solve the problem for me, it will be great filial piety." ”

The crown prince seems to be playing dumb riddles with His Majesty.

Some people's hearts are like mirrors, the prince made a mistake, and now he has saved the mistake. Some people are resentful - they hate Emperor Wei for easily letting go of the prince.

"Brother has a long journey, you should toast a toast."

Wei Ci raised his glass, the prince glanced at his younger brother, everyone in the royal brothers knew that it was superficial, and his most likely thing was that Wei Ci, who now had the support of the eldest princess, poked out, so he smiled, "The seventh emperor brother is now almost the age of the weak crown, but the brother has grown you for more than a round, and I still remember when you were babbling." ”

Wei Xi didn't know what he was going to say, so he just smiled.

The prince smiled, "Yesterday, I heard Yongning say that you had an unpleasant quarrel with Miss Sheng San, and it caused people to fall into the pit. How can a manly man deal with a woman? Wei Ci frowned, he already felt that something was wrong, and Emperor Wei's face sank.

"Old Seven, what's going on?"

Before Wei Xi could speak, the prince had already grabbed the conversation, "Father doesn't know yet, and the son also said that Lord Sheng has told you-" After all, Sheng Qian's reputation for loving his daughter as his life has already spread, and it is not strange for the prince to say this, "It is not a big deal, but Yongning is timid, saying that it was the winter hunt that day, and the seventh brother had a disagreement with the girl of the Sheng family, and set a trap to trick people." ”

Wei Ci frowned slightly, wanting to explain. He also felt that he was the prince, and his father would never punish himself in public for the daughter of a subordinate no matter what.

Emperor Wei glanced at him, and then at Sheng Qian, he really didn't complain, but before he said anything, his eyes turned red.

Emperor Wei felt that such a young talent's red eyes hurt his eyes a little, but Sheng Qian didn't think it, "When the little girl came back the night before yesterday, she had a fever all night, but now it's fine, Your Majesty can rest assured." ”

After saying that, Sheng Mingzhu got up slightly from his position and saluted to Emperor Wei, "The courtiers have seen Your Majesty, and the courtiers are now safe and sound." was originally a courtier, but when she saw the Seven Princes for the first time that day, she didn't know that the hunting ground had been divided into the Seven Princes. ”

Her voice was warm with the heartiness of a girl, but Wei Ci felt a chill in her heart when she heard it, "It's also strange to the courtiers, who are pampered by the elders in the family." Originally, His Royal Highness the Seventh had warned his courtiers very seriously that day, even the Heavenly King Laozi could not enter his territory, but the courtiers still wanted to take the prey away. angered His Highness. ”

Sheng Mingzhu explained the matter clearly, and was glared at by Sheng Qian [secretly], and hung his head aggrievedly.

"The little girl is pampered and unreasonable by her courtiers."

Emperor Wei had a gloomy face, and after a while, he looked at Wei Ci again, "Old Seven, you are getting older now, but your temperament is getting more and more alive. ”

Wei Ci knew where his father's anger was-he would only blame him for his excessive words, the king of heaven, Lao Tzu-Sheng Mingzhu seemed to have said unintentionally, but Emperor Wei could remember what he said in his heart, but he was also clear as a son.

After all, he was still a teenager, and he was a little angry in his heart, "Father, the son didn't say those words." He didn't argue with her about the hunting grounds. ”

The hunting ground of the Heavenly Family is privately divided, but it is all the emperor's, and it will not be within anyone's scope.

Sheng Mingzhu glanced at Wei Ci, and was [glared] at Sheng Qian again, and hurriedly changed his words, "Yes, Your Majesty, the courtiers have misremembered." His Royal Highness really didn't say anything that day, it was the courtier's daughter......" Her voice was a little aggrieved.

Next to him, Wang Fu leaned over to Emperor Wei's ear, explained the situation that day, and explained how Liu Feichi refused to cooperate. Emperor Wei's brows became heavier and heavier, Wei Xi felt inappropriate when he heard Sheng Mingzhu say those words, and when he reacted, "Sheng Mingzhu!" You ......"

"I'm still with you!"

Emperor Wei's voice was raised, he calmed down, and looked at Wei Xi with an unclear look, "The son of the weak crown is so careful and jealous, and he is intriguing with women. In such a cold weather, you let her stay alive for three or four hours, and let your guards deliberately make it difficult to find someone? ”

"You have such a temperament, how can I save royal face?"

Emperor Wei used this to describe himself, Wei Ci wanted to explain, but he was afraid that he would say too much, so he glanced at the eldest princess, she shook her head, and motioned Wei Ci not to say anything more. At this time, Emperor Wei's eyes happened to move there, and the eldest princess picked up the wine glass and made a state of drinking, and Emperor Wei's forehead was blue.

He knew that his sons now had their own plans, and the closest one was never his father, he knew it for a long time, and he was also bitter and angry. But every time I think about it and see it, I still can't calm down.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness the Seventh is young, and the young man is already a passionate person. The minister's daughter also knows that she is probably provoking people with inappropriate words, and I hope that Your Majesty will calm down your anger——"

He is his favorite courtier now, and Emperor Wei didn't think anything about it before. But now he feels that Wei Ci has a lot of ideas, and Wang Fu next to him took the opportunity to speak, "Lord Sheng is right, His Royal Highness the Seventh and Miss Sheng are not very old, and they can't help themselves when their temperament comes, and now on the day of great joy, Your Majesty is still not angry-" He has been with Emperor Wei for many years, and he has more or less pinched the temperament of Emperor Wei.

and kept handing Wei Xi a look.

Wei Ci was reluctant in his heart, but he still got up from his seat and toasted Sheng Mingzhu from afar, "The incident of that day is my fault, and I hope that Miss Sheng will ignore the past suspicions." Then he took a sip of the drink.

Sheng Mingzhu knew that he was the prince, and now that he had such a result, it was already very good, so his eyes narrowed into a slit, and he smiled at him and deliberately angered him.

Wei Ci was really angry, but he couldn't say anything, so he just sat down with a gloomy face.

——

After the banquet, Emperor Wei did not go to any of the concubines' bedrooms to rest, but went back to the study, with only Wang Fu accompanying him.

The candles in the palace were lit, and Emperor Wei dispersed the palace maids who were waiting, and said that his legs were a little sore, so Wang Fu knelt on the side of the couch and beat his legs. Emperor Wei looked up at the dark dome, and for a while his thoughts flew in his heart, and he couldn't figure out what to do.

"Why is Your Majesty worried?"

Emperor Wei rubbed his forehead, and said after a long time, "What do you think about this matter today?" ”

Wang Fu smiled, "Your Majesty is still thinking about the matter of His Royal Highness the Seventh. It's just a commotion at the children's house, what can it be? ”

Emperor Wei shook his head, what did he say about this. was also dizzy, and would actually ask a eunuch about such a thing, but unfortunately Guan Ping was not there, so he asked again, "What about Guan Ping?" Did you come back? ”

On the second day of winter hunting, there was a case in Dongchang, and he hadn't seen Guan Ping for several days, so Wang Fu answered them one by one.

After Emperor Wei nodded, he said, "Ming'er let the queen reward something for the girl of the Sheng family-" After thinking about it again, Sheng Qian was the person he picked up, and now he is a lonely minister, to put it bluntly, he is a backer, and he has withstood the pressure of the boss, and now his daughter is wronged because of his son, and said, "Spread my will again, and make Liu the third lady." ”

Sheng Qian is the waiter of the first grade, but Yun Niang is a concubine, and the highest is the lady of the third grade. Although the Ruan family is the wife of the family, she does not have a grade title, and she clearly rewarded Yun Niang, but she mentioned Sheng Mingzhu's identity again.

"Sheng Qian is still outside, you go and tell him again, that I originally wanted to make his daughter the county lord."

Wang Fu was slightly stunned, and after a while, he also responded with a smile.

——

The cold wind in the palace was very strong, Sheng Mingzhu hadn't left yet, and saw that the koi fish in the imperial garden were a little more colorful than the place next to them, so he stayed for a while.

"The koi fish in this palace are much more lively than those raised at home? Father-in-law, how are these raised, and are there any skills? ”

The little eunuch who raised the carp saw that it was a young lady in a fancy costume who asked about it, so he said respectfully, "This koi fish is also classified, and the young lady raises and plays by herself at home, and these slaves and maids in the imperial garden are all served as masters - but it is difficult to raise liveliness in this winter, in order to make the masters look comfortable, they will be cleaned up every day." ”

Sheng Mingzhu understands - the royal family is still rich.

There was a wind blowing in her ears, she looked forward, but saw that it was the seventh prince Wei Ci who was walking here, and went to the study in front of her, as if she was going to see Emperor Wei, and the little eunuch hurriedly bowed and knelt.

"I've seen His Royal Highness the Seventh, and I've seen Concubine Liu."

Sheng Mingzhu didn't know Concubine Liu, so she repeated what the little eunuch said just now.

The two of them got closer, and Sheng Mingzhu found that Wei Ci's eyes were hinting at him with some anger. Originally, a lot of depression in her heart in the past few days had dissipated a little - she was actually very annoyed with the Seven Princes, maybe because of that dream, she was disgusted with him who looked at her eyes like goods.

But it's not as good as in the dream, the first time he got along, he fell behind.

Wei Ci looked at her eyebrows, and her brows furrowed even more under the breeze and moonlight.

"Miss of the Sheng family, it is well-known when I met today."

Concubine Liu walked past her, her body didn't move, she only turned her head sideways and said such a cold sentence, which didn't let Sheng Mingzhu get up, and quickly entered the upper study. Wei Ci only glanced at her, and quickly followed Concubine Liu in, Sheng Mingzhu was still a little suspicious, and the little eunuch next to her explained to her the identity of Concubine Liu, she was like a big realization, no wonder.
