The complexion is gentle, the eyebrows are soft, the smile is extremely elegant, and the gestures are all amorous. Zhao Yan smiled lightly and bowed, "Uncle Huang." ”

Ye Eryu also saluted. "See the prince."

Zhao Shuo flicked his sleeves, tasted tea indifferently, flipped through the books, and ignored the two of them, "Excuse me, sit down!" ”

"What is Uncle Huang looking at?" Zhao Yan asked with a smile.

"If you have nothing to do, look at the wild history and gossip, and have fun." Zhao Shuo took a sip of tea and was leisurely.

Zhao Yan said, "Isn't Uncle Huang busy with the matter of the embassy entering Beijing recently? How do you have the leisure to watch this? ”

Zhao Shuo understated, "This king is the emperor's uncle. Why do it yourself? with people as tools, inferior people; Make people human. Superior, what does Yan'er think? ”

Hearing this, the smile on Zhao Yan's lips stiffened slightly, and then coughed lightly twice, quietly covering all her emotions. "What Uncle Huang said is very true, and Yan'er thinks so too."

"In this palace, the cold and summer have been going back and forth for hundreds of years, and how have they changed the hearts of the people. It's just that some people can clean themselves and live in peace, but some people have a sense of disagreement and forget their identity. Fortunately, Yan'er is a smart person, and for more than ten years, she has never disappointed this king. Zhao Shuo put down the book in his hand and glanced at Zhao Yan meaningfully.

Zhao Yan nodded and chuckled, "Yan'er doesn't dare to forget." ”

"That's very good." Zhao Shuo took a sip of tea and finally glanced at Ye Eryu.

It was this glance that made Ye Eryu nervously clench his cuffs, and his back was slightly cold, "Lord Wang." The princess will return to the palace tomorrow, you are so old, I will retire first. ”

Zhao Shuo nodded, Ye Eryu got up, and bowed with great etiquette.

Seeing Ye Eryu's departing back, Zhao Yan smiled and said, "Uncle Huang, why bother? Er Yu is the one who spends the rest of his life with the emperor's uncle. ”

"For the rest of my life, no one can be the master." Zhao Shuo got up and walked slowly to the door.

Zhao Yan looked fixedly at his back standing at the door, the sun fell, stretching his figure long. She slowly got up and walked cautiously behind him, standing in his shadow, a slight smile slowly spreading across her lips. Light in the fundus. It grew softer and softer, with a little bright light.

"Does Uncle Huang really like Xia Yu?" Zhao Yan asked in a low voice.

"That's not a question you should ask." Zhao Shuo straightened his body and did not look back at her.

Zhao Yan took a deep breath, "Yan'er knows that as a junior, she shouldn't ask about Uncle Huang's private affairs. It's just that Er Yu is Yan'er's friend, and Yan'er doesn't want her to be unhappy. The palace is already cold, and it is not easy to make one or two close friends. Yan'er cherishes her relationship with Er Yu very much, so she hopes that Uncle Huang can be fair and treat Er Yu better. "Macro counter-marking.

So you teach her how to compete for favor, how to persecute others? How to eradicate dissent and never suffer from future problems? Zhao Shuo's tone was cold, without the slightest emotion.

Zhao Yan pursed her lips and lowered her head, "It turns out that in Uncle Huang's heart, Yan'er is such a ruthless person. ”

"It doesn't matter what I think in my heart, you just need to know it yourself." Zhao Shuo walked out of the door without looking back, "That's the end of the words, you can do it yourself." ”

In this way, he walked out of her sight unruly, without lingering in the slightest. It seems that in his world, she, like Ye Eryu, is not allowed to step into.

Standing in the corridor in amazement, Zhao Yan smiled bitterly.

Li Huan stepped forward, holding a delicate box in his hand, "Princess, this is the birthday gift that the prince prepared for you early." The prince failed to come back earlier, but now that he has made up for it, I hope the princess will not mind. ”

Zhao Yan was stunned, "Birthday? ”

"Isn't the princess's birthday the tenth day of October?" Li Huan said with a smile, "The prince specially explained that this thing must be handed over to the princess in person." ”

"What is this?" Zhao Yanjiao frowned slightly.

Li Huan shook his head.

Zhao Yan took it gently, "Thank you Uncle Huang for me." ”

Li Huan saluted and left quickly.

This box is not large, and it looks like it should be a brocade box with jewelry. But Zhao Yan, as a princess, didn't have anything, how could Zhao Shuo suddenly remember to give her a set of jewelry?

Walking back to the flower hall, Zhao Yan put the box on the table, and Ruyu's fingertips quickly picked up the ribbon on the outside and opened the box. Her gaze froze suddenly, and she quickly closed the box, her face instantly white as paper.

How could it be this?

The feather eyelashes trembled slightly, Zhao Yan bit her lip and was silent, but her heart was beating extremely fast.

The next moment, she hugged the box and hurriedly walked out of the Heart Cultivation Pavilion.

Zhao Shuo stood at the end of the corridor, watching from a distance as Zhao Yan trotted all the way out of the Heart Pavilion. The thin lips are slightly pursed, and the lip line is slightly raised, outlining the charming arc of the evil and unequaled.

"You are so dignified, why did you suddenly think of making up for the princess's birthday?" Li Huan stepped forward.

"Doesn't she like it very much?" Zhao Shuo's eyes were dark, and there was no light in the ink-colored pupils.

Li Huan frowned.

Do you like it?

Looking at the princess's expression, she didn't seem to like it very much, but with a little frightened. The things in it were prepared by the prince, and even Li Huan didn't know what it was.

What could it be?

This question is clear only to Zhao Shuo and Zhao Yan.

Lan Zhu waited outside the Heart Cultivation Pavilion, and when she saw Zhao Yan coming out with such a pale face, she hurriedly greeted her, "What's wrong with the princess?" Is it uncomfortable? The slave and maid will immediately send the imperial doctor to show you. ”

Zhao Yan raised her hand and hugged the box in her arms, "I'm fine, I don't need to find an imperial doctor." ”

"And who is the princess?" Lan Zhu was stunned.

Zhao Yan glanced at the palace maids around her, and everyone retreated a few feet consciously, only daring to follow from a distance.

"Uncle Huang didn't know why, he suddenly made up a birthday gift." Zhao Yan took a deep breath and bit her lip silently.

Lan Zhu frowned, "The princess's birthday has passed, why does the prince only remember it now?" Princess, does this mean anything else? ”

"I also doubted it, but I couldn't figure out what Uncle Huang wanted." Zhao Yan walked slowly towards the room, "This matter is not allowed to be mentioned to anyone." When you return to the palace, you are not allowed to tell the queen mother. ”

Lan Zhu bowed his head, "The slave and maid can be saved." ”

As a slave, she naturally didn't dare to ask what gift Zhao Yan received. A slave has the duty of a slave, and the master has the bottom line of the master. When the master is happy, the slave is still a slave, and when the master is unhappy, the slave is not even as good as a dog.

In addition to the smart Princess Zhao Yan, there is also Shen Hao who choked on tea.

Unexpectedly, Xia Yu was not only safe and sound, but also grabbed the handle of Lord Langzhong. In this way, who would dare to deal with Xia Yu easily from the top and bottom of the criminal department.

What's more, there is also a secret guard Anu of the Rui King's Mansion in the prison.

"It's good that the adults are cautious and don't do it themselves, otherwise it would be you, the adult, who will be caught." Xu Fu stepped forward and smiled lowly.

Shen Hao bowed his head and brushed away the tea stains on his lips, "Useless waste, this Chinese is also an embroidered pillow, don't start if you should start, this is good, don't even think about it in the future." There are such powerful secret guards guarding Xia Yu, no one wants to touch Xia Yu at all. ”

Xu Fu sighed lightly, "My lord, it seems that Lord Rui attaches great importance to Xia Yu. ”

"Summer rain?" Shen Hao narrowed his dangerous eyes, "I didn't expect her to have such a noble person to help, but the crime of murder, if you want to wash it away, I'm afraid it's not easy." We have the world. ”

Xu Fu frowned, "But my lord, I heard that your classmate and friend Lord Liang came out of the Rui Wang's Mansion and began to investigate the case. Now I don't know if there are eyebrows, if there are eyebrows, when the time comes, the murder case will be solved, and the position where the Wenhua Hall is walking, I am afraid that he will not be able to keep him. ”

Shen Hao was shocked, "You mean, he will be above me?" ”

"If he really has the ability to solve this case and return Xia Yu's innocence, how can Lord Rui treat him badly. What's more, the regent will definitely try his best to win over. Once Lord Liang is turned over, it will be disadvantageous to your status in the eyes of the regent. Xu Fu lowered his voice and said something serious.

"Humph!" Shen Hao sneered, "I am the champion of Jinke, if he really has the ability, how can he be subordinate to me." You let people keep an eye on the point, and if there is any trouble, report to me in time. ”

Xu Fu bowed his head and walked out of the study quickly.

Shen Hao let out a long breath and turned to look at the "Thousand Autumn Mountains and Rivers" hanging on the wall.

"Thousands of autumns and nights of mountains and rivers are silent, who is the home in the world?" Shen Hao looked at this extremely precious picture scroll with great satisfaction, and his fingertips gently stroked the picture, this is a good baby. It's more expensive than any of the paintings in his house, and it's really lovely. He stared intently at the mountains and rivers on the paper, but he didn't realize that Shen Xing was already standing behind him.

"Brother." Shen Xing stood there, staring at Shen Hao's back with great displeasure.

Shen Hao was stunned for a moment, then turned around and put on a smile, "Xing'er, why are you here?" Didn't my brother's study tell you not to come in at will? Go play somewhere else! ”

He stroked her hair and smiled as the good brother who cherished his sister before.

Shen Xing shook his nerves slightly, and then regained his senses, "Brother, are you going to deal with Sister Xia Yu and Brother Liang?" ”

Shen Hao's brows furrowed suddenly, straightened his body, and lowered his face slightly, "This is a matter of the imperial court, what does it have to do with your little girl." Go play, don't come to the study in the future. ”

"I ask you, yes?" If Shen Xing's temperament is strong, even the nine cows will not be able to pull it back.

"Get out." Shen Hao was cold.

Shen Xing stepped forward, "Isn't it?" ”

"You!" Shen Hao's face was gloomy, "A little child, what do you know?" ”

"I don't understand my brother's court affairs, but I know that Sister Xia Yu treated me well and saved me." Shen Xing raised his head and stared at Shen Hao's eyes, "Brother, my mother said when she was alive that you can't be without a conscience. ”
