I looked back to the man I had just played, his silver armor chilling in the moonlight, but his well-defined face with a smile that melted the ice.

I just thought it was inexplicably funny, "Why are you following me?" I asked him.

"Who doesn't know that I'm Wei Chizhong, as soon as I see a beautiful woman, I want to go home with her," he smiled playfully, just like the way he played the piano in the palace just now.

I couldn't help but laugh too.

"Since you want to go home with the princess, where is the princess's dormitory?" He clasped his hands in front of his chest, looking uninhibited.

It's okay if he doesn't ask, but I'm even more embarrassed when I ask, although I've been in the palace for more than a month, but I'm still not very familiar with this place, the inner palace is okay, I rarely come near this Taihe Palace, and I didn't pay attention to it, and now I don't know where I've gone.

"I ....... I live in Hanlian Palace, but ......" I scratched my head, telling others that it was really embarrassing to get lost in my own home.

He seemed to see through my thoughts, and laughed: "It's okay, Weichen just knows where Hanlian Palace is," I couldn't help but feel hot when he saw through it.

On the way, we kept talking:

"You play the piano very well,"

"I've been around since I was a child, even though we are men, we must also be proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, hahaha."

"Are you a palace guard?"

"There are so many flower-like ladies in the palace, how can I be a palace guard with a temperament, I can only patrol the streets and alleys of Los Angeles, and they all call me Deputy Lieutenant Chi."

"Then how did Deputy Lieutenant Chi know about Hanlian Palace?"

"I've been friends with the eldest prince and the second prince since I was a child, and I'm afraid I'm more familiar with this palace than you! But why has the eldest prince and the second prince been so rigid, and they have not been infected by my romantic suave at all. ”

"Hahaha"

…….

Before we knew it, we were back at the Hanlian Palace, and I felt a warmth when I saw my grandmother waiting anxiously in front of the door with a lantern, and there were red hearts and green bananas standing on both sides.

"Mama," I ran over and hugged her, "the princess is really anxious to come back so late, the old slave, it's so cold outside, go into the palace quickly," Mama said, patting me on the back.

I turned back to him and said, "Thank you, it's funny!" He laughed a little embarrassedly.

"Deputy Lieutenant Xie Weichi sent my princess back to the palace, red hearts," Mama glanced at red hearts and said, "Go and send Wei Chi out of the palace." ”

"No," he said, giving me one look and turning away.

"How did the princess know him?" Mama asked me,

"I met them on the road," I didn't care,

"He is the son of Prime Minister Yu Chi, but Prime Minister Wei Chi is a person who even the emperor has to give three points, if the princess likes it, you can walk around with him a lot," Mama whispered.

"Mama, where did you go......," I couldn't help but sigh.

In the second half of the night, it rained, I couldn't sleep and got up with my clothes on, today is the green banana vigil, she has fallen asleep in front of my bed, I covered her with a robe and went out of the inner room lightly, the rain hit the banana tree in the courtyard, I sat at the door, only to feel infinitely sad.

The next morning, my grandmother came to wake me up: "Princess, get up and freshen up, I'm going to go to the queen's place to say goodbye later," I only felt that my head was swollen, and I didn't respond to her, and my mother called again, "Grandma, I don't feel well, let's not go to say hello today."

Mama hurriedly touched my forehead, "Ah! The princess has a fever, and I think she suffered from the wind chill last night," she looked at me with pity, and called out: "Red hearts, go to the queen's palace to report, the princess has a fever and can't go to ask for peace," "Yes, the slave maid will go."

"Green Banana, go and pass the Imperial Doctor," Mama continued to instruct, and then she fetched water and put a towel on me. It didn't take long for the imperial doctor to come and say something like "I was infected with the wind and cold, and I will be fine after a few days of medicine", and the grandmother was relieved.

I fell asleep in a daze, and when I woke up again, I saw my father looking at me lovingly, and I turned my head away from him, and somehow a tear flowed down.

"Stand down," said my father, "yes," and the servants and maids in the house withdrew, leaving only the two of us, and I felt even more embarrassed.

Although my father is usually very busy, I have only seen him five or six times in the past month or so, and I haven't said too much every time, but my father is my father, the only person in this court who is related to me by blood, and my only relative except for my uncle, he is unique in my heart, but in his heart I don't know what kind of person I am.

He reached out and touched my forehead, and I leaned in stubbornly, not wanting him to touch me. "Your temper is really like that of your mother," he sighed, and continued, "Let me tell you about my childhood, my father had seven sons, and although I am the crown prince, I am not the most favored by my father. ”

His voice lost its majesty, but spoke like a normal father, and I slowly turned my head to look at him.

"When I was very young, I knew that the love of the Son of Heaven could not be monopolized by one person, so many princes and princesses, if you want your father to see you, you have to fight, you have to be better than them."

"So I always force myself to do better than them, because I am the crown prince and their role model, and what I am most afraid of is to disappoint my father, afraid that he will not like me."

"My father did it, because my father was already an emperor," I said.

"No, I won't know until I become the emperor, although I also want to divide my love equally among everyone, but I can't do it, because I am a person, and I also have my own likes and dislikes, there are always some people who will get more love, and others will get less, and sometimes this is not something to fight."

"So my father loves me less, doesn't he? And it's immutable, isn't it? As I said this, tears flowed involuntarily.

He was about to stretch out his hand, so I immediately grabbed it in front of him and wiped away my tears, but he reluctantly withdrew his hand and continued: "Your mother has asked me the same thing, and I don't know how to answer. But Qingluan, you have only returned to the palace not long ago, and even father and daughter need to slowly cultivate their relationship."

In fact, what he said was not wrong, she had only been back to the palace for a month, how could she be able to replace Qing Li's place in his heart so quickly, she suddenly felt that she was too domineering.

"In the future, when you encounter a life-and-death situation, you must not save me, you should protect yourself first, and I will protect you," he said, and then he helped me up, and then took the medicine bowl and said, "Let's drink the medicine first."

I took the bowl and drank the bitter medicinal soup, but for some reason, I didn't feel bitter at all, I only felt sweet and comfortable, as if the illness was immediately cured.

Then my father talked to me again until I fell asleep again.
