When Ling Xiaotian left the incense, it was almost curfew outside, and there was no pedestrian on the street.

Ghost Face and the others rode horses and followed closely behind the Scarlet King, but saw that he did not go to the Scarlet King's Mansion, but instead changed his route and went to the south of the city.

"Lord Wang. You're going to ......"

"Go to the Criminal Department, Lord Chen's mansion." Ling Xiaotian said in a deep voice.

He didn't want to delay the case anymore.

The emperor gave him half a month, he wanted to close the case before his birthday, and then he could have more time to be by her side......

The night wind swept up everyone's clothes, and hunting sounded.

He quietly opened his left hand, and in the palm of his hand, there was a pendant made of beeswax, and the shape of a cat's claw looked cute and tight.

He couldn't help but smile.

This is a birthday gift she gave him in advance, although it is not a rare antique, nor is it a valuable ornament, but it is made by her own hands, which is unique in the world. Something that belongs to him alone.

Tapping his fingertips on the surface of the pendant, he guessed that it was empty.

What's in it? Just like the sandalwood pendant he gave her, is there also a little thought she has hidden in it?

He wanted to open it several times to see what was going on, but he forcibly held back.

Let's leave it until the day of your birthday.

Three days later, in the early court, the emperor was furious after reading the confession of the official in the case of embezzlement of ink handed over by Ling Xiaotian.

With a wave of his hand, he swept the jade paperweight on the jade case to the ground and broke it in half.

"The emperor is angry!" The ministers fell to their knees. Yaguang is in talent.

King Xian and the crown prince even persuaded him: "Don't be angry, father. Beware of being angry and broken. ”

The emperor was furious, picked up the fold handed by Ling Xiaotian again, looked at it carefully, and then he nodded and said three "good" words in a row.

"This case is a good one." The Emperor nodded.

This remark only made the ministers present look at each other in shock.

They were not surprised that the emperor praised the Scarlet King, but they were surprised that the emperor actually called the Scarlet King "Scarlet Sky" above the court.

Above the court. Jun is Jun. A minister is a minister, no matter what kind of identity he has in private, but in the court, there is a distinction between monarchs and ministers, but the emperor called his son's name in public, and the intimacy was overflowing.

King Xian's eyes were darkly surging, and the crown prince was disdainful.

In the entire early dynasty, almost all of them became a stage for the Scarlet King to show, and all the officials of the Criminal Department were like being beaten with chicken blood, and they worked hard to help the Scarlet King. By the end of the early dynasty, the clothes behind many courtiers were quietly soaked with sweat.

A scarlet king who has never done anything, a little prince who is unruly and debauched in the eyes of everyone, dares to be so bold to handle the case of greedy ink.

He was not afraid of offending anyone at all, because he had no allies in the DPRK and China, and he did not think about anyone's face.

When he was about to disperse, the emperor suddenly summoned Gonggong Jia.

Father-in-law Jia held a gold-lacquered tray in his hand, covered with yellow silk, and a piece of flawless jade was placed on it.

"This bento is a birthday gift from me." The emperor said to Ling Xiao Tiandao and pointed to the tray.

Ling Xiaotian knelt down to thank him.

Father-in-law Jia smiled and came to Ling Xiaotian with a tray, and said in a thin voice: "The Scarlet King should accept it quickly, this is the emperor's heart." ”

Everyone stretched out their heads to look at it, only to see that the beautiful jade in Jia's tray was clear and green, without a trace of impurities, and the jade pendant was carved with a coiled dragon pattern, and a pendant with gold beads tied underneath, and a golden tassel.

Ling Xiaotian took it with both hands and thanked him again.

Father-in-law Jia smiled meaningfully: "I don't know if the Scarlet King can be satisfied with this birthday gift?" ”

Ling Xiaotian picked up the jade pendant and wore it in front of the emperor.

"Thank you for the grace of my father, my son is very happy."

King Xian's gaze fell on the jade pendant on Ling Xiaotian's waist, and suddenly his whole body tensed, as if he was trying to endure something.

"Second brother?" The prince stood beside him, and felt that he was a little strange, so he looked at him in bewilderment.

"On the birthday of the sixth brother, we are also going to congratulate each other." Virtuous King Ling Qingye smiled, and the deep darkness in his eyes had been hidden in his heart in an instant.

The crown prince still looked disdainful, since he was a child, Ling Xiaotian has always been the one who was bullied by them, and he didn't think he had any amazing talent, why did he suddenly jump out and get a birthday gift from his father.

The crown prince only glanced at the jade pendant on Ling Xiaotian's waist and looked away.

As the crown prince, he has the support of the queen behind him, and he has the younger brother of King Xian by his side, so he naturally will not take Ling Xiaotian in his eyes.

However, King Xian noticed that there was a line of words carved on the back of the jade pendant: Gift, Xiaotian, Wu'er.

This line of words seemed to explode in King Xian's heart.

Wu'er......

Even he never got the emperor to call him that.

They are princes, they are emperors, and the emperor is like an ordinary father when facing Ling Xiaotian...... What a grace this is!

King Xian smiled and stepped forward to greet Ling Xiaotian, "When the sixth brother is born, this king will come to the door to congratulate him in person." ”

Other officials also stepped forward to stammer, after the case of greedy ink, the value of the scarlet king instantly increased a hundredfold, and now the emperor rewarded him with this jade pendant in public as a birthday gift, does this imply that the power between the princes will undergo subtle changes in the future?

You must know that even if the jade pendant is valuable, it is just an ornament, but the pattern of the dragon indicates the dignity of Ling Xiaotian's identity, and only members of the royal family can wear it!

Coupled with the lettering on the back, no matter where Ling Xiaotian goes in the future, as long as the local officials see it, they will greet him respectfully.

This is clearly a glory that only a prince who is favored by the emperor can have.

That night, Su Baitong was reading and practicing calligraphy in Meishuang Curie.

Since the kidnapping case, she has never been out of the house, and she has stayed in the house to sort out the spice recipe for the past few days, and Jian Siqing and the little civet have not gone far, no matter when, they are all by her side.

Outside the window, there was a sudden sound of stones hitting the window sash.

Jian Siqing opened the window and looked out, she didn't say anything, but stepped forward and grabbed Huixiang, and regardless of the other party's hands and feet, she directly dragged her out of the door.

Su Baitong was bowing his head to write, and when he heard Huixiang complaining all the way and being dragged out, he raised his head and saw Ling Xiaotian standing outside the window.

The leaves of the osmanthus tree rustled above his head, and he did not wear the red brocade robe, but changed into an ordinary lake blue straight coat.

He stood in the night and smiled at her, his peach blossom eyes brighter than the moon in the night sky.

"Tongtong, will you marry me?" At this time, standing outside the window seemed to be just an ordinary teenager, standing quietly in front of the osmanthus tree, the cloud sleeves moved lightly with the wind, like flowing clouds and waterfalls, chic and handsome.

He reached out to her and showed her the Coiling Dragon Jade Pendant in his hand, he could finally hold something. Take a hundred plating to read the latest chapter of "Smell the Fragrance and Know the Jade Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
