Chapter 224: He Has a Secret in His Heart
Pei Yuan saw his small movements in his eyes, glanced at him lightly, didn't say anything, and said to Yijing: "Yiguo Gong, this king is here to pick up Pei Hu." ā
When the child heard this, he hugged Yijing's neck tightly, and the meaning of resistance was obvious, "No need, no need, just let the child enter the palace with Yiguo Gong." ā
Pei Yuan said: "You are too troublesome for the Duke of Yi to do this." ā
Yijing wanted to say that it was not troublesome, but the other party had already reached out, so he had to hug the person to him.
"Grandfather, you can't leave me behind......"
The child's voice was a little sharp, and Yijing's heart trembled when he heard it, and he subconsciously hugged him tightly.
Pei Yuan raised his eyes and looked at him.
Yijing coughed lightly and said calmly: "Lord Wang, let's take the little prince into the palace." ā
The child secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and clung to his neck tightly.
Pei Yuan withdrew his hand, glanced at his son lightly, and smiled, "Now that I have a backer, my wings are stiff, huh?" ā
Yijing's back was cold, but he still opened his mouth strongly, "Since the little prince called his grandfather, please don't see him like this, and let the minister take him into the palace." ā
"It's fine." Pei Yuan didn't insist on taking Pei Hu away anymore.
As he got into the carriage, he glanced at Yizhu.
Yizhu still didn't dare to look at him.
After his carriage left, she exhaled lightly and followed Mrs. Yi into the carriage.
In the carriage, the child patted his heart, looking frightened.
Mrs. Yi said funny: "Why is Lele scared like this? ā
The child sat down next to her obediently, "Doesn't grandmother think my father is scary?" ā
Mrs. Yi paused and said honestly: "I used to think that I couldn't get close, but now that I have more contact, I think it's okay." ā
The child was stunned, "But just now I saw my grandfather sweating with fright." ā
Mrs. Yi: "......"
Yi Guogong who followed on horseback outside: "......"
Yizhu looked at the child with some confusion, and asked softly for a while: "Lele, you lied to me yesterday, and the prince didn't beat you, right?" ā
When the child heard this, his heart was weak for a while, and he said hesitantly: "Although he didn't fight, he murdered me." You don't know how fierce my father is in training people with a straight face, if I hadn't run fast, he would have beaten me. ā
Yizhu: "......" So, he really lied to her? Thinking of her attitude towards Pei Yuan yesterday, her heart was empty.
Mrs. Yi touched the child's head and asked in a joking tone: "The prince will be angry, did you do something wrong?" ā
The child hung his head, "IāI may have said the wrong thing......"
"What did you say?" Yizhu was curious.
The child frowned tangled and took her hand, "It's not that the child doesn't tell you, it's that you can't say it." ā
When Yizhu heard this, he didn't force him, "It's okay, if you can't say it, don't say it." ā
The child sighed secretly, feeling infinitely melancholy.
looked at the close and living mother, hesitated several times, and finally closed her mouth.
He had a secret in his heart, but he couldn't tell it.
Because he said it, it was a leak of heavenly secrets, and he had to leave here in advance, which he had agreed with Master Xuanmiao.
Thinking about it, he got up and went over, hugged his mother's neck affectionately, and solemnly explained: "Mother, you and your father must be good." ā
Yizhu was stunned and hugged his little body tightly.
Seeing that she didn't speak, the child urged as if he wanted to get her assurance: "Mother must promise me." ā
Met his serious and persistent eyes, she finally nodded, "Yes." ā
The child grinned as if relieved.
Seeing this, Mrs. Yi sighed in her heart, what a well-behaved and good child.
After Yizhu and his party entered the palace gate, they were led to the imperial garden.
Today's emperor's birthday, it is very lively, when the group arrived, the imperial garden was full of officials and female dependents, and they were gathering in one place to talk.
Seeing Yizhu, those female dependents, no matter what they thought in their hearts, greeted them attentively.
The ladies pulled Mrs. Yi to speak, and the ladies talked to Yi Zhu.
Yizhu was not familiar with them, so she simply dealt with a few words, Qi Yue and the others just arrived, so she took the opportunity to get out and took the child to sit in the seat.
After a while, Si Lan, Qi Yue, Shen Luoluo, and the three of them also sat down.
"Do you know, I heard my father say that the princess of Wuli Kingdom came to Daliang this time to marry our Daliang." As soon as he sat down, Qi Yue lowered his voice.
"The emperor has also reached the age of choosing a concubine, should Princess Wuliguo want to enter the palace as a concubine?" Shen Luoluo asked curiously.
"It doesn't have to be the emperor, listen to my father, Princess Wuliguo wants to choose a son-in-law at today's palace banquet, and the emperor also intends to choose a concubine at today's banquet." Qi Yue shared the gossip with a few people.
Yizhu was fine, but after Si Lan and Shen Luoluo heard her words, they became nervous, "Really? ā
"The news of the two of you is too ill-informed, haven't you noticed that those noble ladies are dressed up particularly fancy today, just to attract the emperor's attention." Qi Yue said.
However, as soon as she finished speaking, the eyes of the three Yizhu fell on her.
Qi Yue was stunned for a moment, "What are you doing with me?" ā
"No wonder you dressed up so beautifully today, it turns out that you also want to be selected." Shen Luoluo looked at her meaningfully.
Qi Yue frowned, "Nonsense, I didn't have it, today's body was all made for me by my mother." After speaking, she looked down at the gorgeous dress on her body, and suddenly felt a little weak.
Seeing that the three of them were a little worried, Yizhu couldn't help but feel relieved: "Actually, the emperor is very good, if you can enter the palace, he will treat you well." ā
As soon as she said this, all three of them looked at her unhappily.
"To enter the palace is to lose freedom."
"I have to fight with a whole bunch of women."
"What's so good about entering the palace?"
The three of them said in unison.
Yizhu was stunned, "What should I do then?" The three of you are not engaged right now, and you will definitely be chosen. ā
When the three of them heard this, they all frowned.
At this time, Pei Hu, who was eating dim sum and had not spoken, suddenly said: "If you don't want to enter the palace, I have a way." ā
"What's the solution?" The three of them stared at him.
It's strange that the child in front of him is only five years old, but as soon as he speaks, they are inexplicably convinced, thinking that he really has a way.
The child took out a packet of powdered medicine from his pocket, poured it into a cup, shook it gently, and brought it to them.
"One mouthful, I guarantee that the emperor will not look at you more, and he will never choose you."
Qi Yue trembled and took the cup, looked at the tea inside, and hesitated: "It can't be poison, right?" ā
"I have thought of a way for you, and if you are afraid, don't drink it." The child shrugged.
The three of them still hesitated.
Yizhu squeezed the child's hand and asked softly, "What kind of medicine is that?" ā
The child sighed, "Zhuzhu don't worry, it's just a medicine that will make people's skin red and rashes, and it will fade tomorrow." ā
As soon as he finished speaking, Si Lan picked up the water glass, looked like he was at home, and raised his head to drink.
"Alas, don't drink it all, leave some for us." Shen Luoluo reacted and hurriedly stopped.
Silan Yiyan gave them the water glass.
The two of them took another sip.
"What are you guys muttering here?" At this time, Mrs. Chen came over and slapped her daughter on the shoulder, causing Shen Luoluo to bounce in fright.
