Looking at the night outside the door, Emperor Ren patted Xiao Zheng's shoulder, "The night is dark, although my father will not feel sleepy, but it's time to rest, Xiao Fu is embarrassed to disturb our father and son's gathering, or he would have come to urge me to go back to the dormitory." ”

"It's not good for the sons, patronizing to talk to the father, forgetting the time, the father should go and rest." Xiao Zheng also realized that it was already late, and he forgot the time when he patronized and spoke.

"Well, you also rest early, Xiao Fu has already cleaned up the courtyard outside your palace for you, let's go and see it tomorrow, it's getting late today, just rest in the palace" Emperor Ren looked at Xiao Zheng kindly, he was a kind father at this moment.

"Yes, Father." Xiao Zheng bowed to see him off.

"Xiao Fu, drive back to the palace" Emperor Ren shouted to Xiao Fu as he walked, and then looked back at Xiao Zheng, "Zheng'er, I will go to sleep in Anren Palace, and you will come to greet your mother early tomorrow morning." I haven't seen you in seven years, and she really misses you. ”

"Erchen knows, go to my father, the queen and the concubine tomorrow morning to say goodbye~" Thinking of his mother, Xiao Zheng also misses it very much.

"Hmm," Emperor Ren nodded and went out.

Watching Emperor Ren and Xiao Fu gradually move away, Xiao Zheng called Xiao Chunzi, "Xiao Chunzi, let's go, go back to the East Palace"

Xiao Chunzi ran to keep up, "Hey, okay, I haven't been back to the East Palace for a long time, and the slave needs to sleep well." ”

The night is dark, some people sleep peacefully, while others can't sleep.

The news of the prince's return to the palace has spread throughout the major mansions in the capital within two hours.

Xiangguo Mansion.

In the inner study of Xiangguo Mansion, Dayu Prime Minister Lin Qian is making tea, the technique is very skillful, such as flowing clouds, pleasing to the eye, just look at this set of tea-making actions to know that he is a person who likes tea. The person on the other side looked at the action of making tea, and also praised it, "I haven't seen Lin Xiang make tea for a long time, and I smell the fragrance of tea~ haha"

"Since then, I've come often, the tea pipe is enough, haha~" Lin Xiangguo was still very humorous when he spoke.

"Lin Xiang laughed, how can I let Lin Xiang make tea for me, I want to learn from you, and I will make tea with you in the future~" The person on the other side naturally didn't dare to let the dignified Xiangguo make tea for himself.

"You, you, you're so polite to me, it's all a family, and who makes tea for whom is not so particular." Lin Qian responded with a smile.

"The main thing is to learn, learn a thing or two, haha~" The person opposite is also sleek.

"Then I'll tell you well~ Hehe" Lin Qian put the brewed tea in front of Lu Qu.

"Lin Xiang, please speak, little brother listen" Lu Qu hurriedly took the tea, leaned forward, and listened respectfully.

Lin Qian picked up the tea in front of him, sniffed and said, "Brother Chengfu, if you want this tea to smell fragrant and drink sweet, you have to be patient." The heat must be mastered, not early or late, the aroma of the tea is not enough, and the sweetness is gone when it is drunk late~"

"Lin Xiang's words are reasonable, I was fortunate to have my brother's guidance, otherwise, I wouldn't be able to vomit the tea I drank." Lu Qu nodded and sighed.

Lin Qian took a sip of tea and savored the taste, "You and I are in-laws, so we can't separate each other, and helping you is also helping myself~"

Hearing Lin Qian's words, Lu Qu also nodded in agreement, "Brother's words have gone to my heart, and I have witnessed a lot of them over the years in the Ministry of Officials, those who talk about solidarity all day long, there is no one who does not go under the knife behind their backs, and only the bones and veins are connected, and the family affection can last~"

"Hehe~ What Brother Chengfu said is very true~" Lin Qian nodded in response.

Then Lu Qu laughed a little gloatingly, "Tomorrow, some of these people will be busy, loyal, frightened, and looking for a way back... It's a play for each to his own sing."

"They sing, let's drink tea, hehe~" Lin Qian picked up the teapot again and refilled the tea for Lu Qu.

"Yes, yes, yes~ Let's drink tea and listen to the play~Haha~" Lu Qu also laughed.

Wu Wangfu.

"Father, father" The door of King Wu's study was eagerly pushed open, "Xiao Zheng... Xiao Zheng is back, huhuhu~"

King Wu glared at the visitor, "What is the panic, look at your panicked appearance, you are not stable at all, how can you be a big responsibility!"

"Yes, yes, the son knows that he is wrong, but... But Xiao Zheng has already returned, what should we do? ”

"I see, wasn't his return expected by everyone? No fuss. King Wu's expression still looked very calm.

"Expected? Didn't my father say that Xiao Zheng was missing, and eighty percent had already been killed? Xiao Yu looked at King Wu in disbelief.

"That's what this king said to the others, otherwise how would they have supported us with all their hearts?" King Wu saw that this son couldn't even comprehend this, and he was also very disappointed.

"Huh? That father should have told me earlier, and I was taken aback..."Xiao Yu complained about King Wu in turn.

As soon as he finished speaking, he was scolded by King Wu pointing at his nose, "Tell you earlier?" If you told you earlier, you would have been exposed, look at your current appearance, can you guarantee that after I tell you, you won't say it? ”

"Erchen is not stupid, of course he won't say it..."Xiao Yu muttered quietly.

"You're not stupid, you're stupid! I don't have any city government at all, and I still want to be the emperor, get out! "King Wu will also start to get irritable.

"Father, Erchen just lost his rationality for a while, and Erchen is not so panicked now," Xiao Yu said cautiously.

King Wu looked at his son and sighed, slowing down his tone, "Alas~ You go out, I'll be quiet first, think about how to deal with it"

"Yes, father, the minister went out first" Xiao Yu looked at King Wu, and didn't dare to stay to make him angry.

"Hmm" King Wu waved his hand to let him out, and reminded him to call someone in, "By the way, please Mr. Fu come in, this king has something to discuss with him"

"Yes, father, son-in-law, I'm going to invite Mr. Fu," he said, and ran out of King Wu's study.

Looking at Xiao Yu's back, King Wu shook his head, "Alas, is it difficult for me to really miss the throne?" ”

Yuwang Mansion.

"Brother Wang, Brother Wang", when Xiao He ran into the eldest brother Xiao's room, the second brother Xiao Wu was already there, seeing that the two Wang brothers were there, Xiao He also realized that the two Wang brothers should know the purpose of his coming. Xiao He walked to the tea table, picked up the tea, and drank a cup of tea first, "It seems that Brother Wang already knows that the prince is back." ”

Xiao Wu looked at Xiao He and replied to him with a smile, "Yes, I just got the news and came to the eldest brother." ”

Xiao Wen looked at the two younger brothers and nodded, "I am relieved to see the news that you are all so nervous about the younger brothers." Now that my brother is back, let's visit him tomorrow, after all, we haven't seen him for many years, and we must get close to him in the future. ”

Xiao Wen and Xiao Wu nodded in agreement, discussing how to go to the East Palace to meet Xiao Zheng tomorrow.

King Cheng's Mansion.

King Zheng looked at the housekeeper who delivered the letter, "It's good to come back, it's good to come back, go to sleep first, this is rare good news, cut off your desire, you can sleep peacefully" and went back to sleep with his hands behind his back.

Jin State Mansion.

Jin Guogong sits in Liangzhou, Jin Guogong's mansion is currently in charge of An Zhen, the eldest son of Jin Guogong, looking at the flying pigeons in the distance, An Zhen has a lot of thoughts, he and Xiao Zheng grew up together, and they are still playmates who study together. Xiao Zheng's sudden departure made him confused for a long time, but it was his mother's enlightenment that made him gradually forget his sadness. When Xiao Zheng comes back this time, will he be a good friend who studies together like before? It shouldn't be, after all, everyone has grown up, and there is a difference between monarchs and ministers, but... Just come back.

Gyeongkook Mansion.

Qingguo Gong Cui Fujiang looked at the housekeeper's happy appearance, and said to the young man next to him with a smile, "It's time to come back, or your sister should ask me, hahaha~ "

"Haha, the little sister definitely wouldn't dare, but the mother may not be," the young man also smiled and answered.

"Haha, fart, I'm still afraid that she is a woman's family, hum", said and walked out of the doorman, "Go, give your mother good news, hahaha~"

Duchess Shen of Qingguo had already laid down to rest, but she still didn't sleep thinking about the housework during the day, and she heard her husband's loud voice from afar, "Madam, have you slept?" I have something to tell you for my husband."

Shen looked at the door, "What's the fuss, everyone is asleep, you are still yelling there, and you are not afraid of arguing with others?" ”

"In my house, only others are afraid of me, how can I be afraid of others, hum" Qingguo Gong seems to be a rare hardness.

Shen got up and put on his clothes, and looked at his husband with a face of disbelief, "Yo, what happened to my lord today, I came in without waiting for me to fall asleep." ”

"What is Madam talking about, I'm usually busy with official business, and Madame doesn't understand me, forget it, and make such sarcasm to me, it's really... It's really unreasonable~" Qing Guogong glared and returned his mouth.

Now the Shen family is starting to look at Qingguo Gong seriously, she is from a big family in Yangzhou, and she is a thoughtful person, she tilted her head and thought, "Is there news from the prince?" ”

"Huh?" Qing Guoqing's face was full of incredulity, and he got up from the stool at once, "What does this have to do with the prince?" How did you guess that? ”

"Less nonsense," Shen pressed him on the bench again, "Come on, is there news from the prince?" ”

"Hey, it's really boring, I'll guess it at once" Qingguo Gong pouted.

"You don't talk nonsense, hurry up!" Shen nodded Qingguogong's head.

"Hehe, don't worry, madam, listen to me slowly..."Qingguo Gong began to sell Guanzi, but in the end, he also told the news of Xiao Zheng's return.

"Great, I'll go tell my daughter," he said, and walked out of the house.

"Hey, madam, my daughter is asleep at this hour, why are you waking her up? I'll talk about it tomorrow, and I'm not in a hurry for this night. Qing Guogong took Mrs. Shen's hand.

"Oh, yes, look, I'm so happy I've forgotten the hour," he said, patting his forehead.

"Hmph, I said a long time ago that you have long hair and short knowledge, and you don't admit it, now you know my husband's wisdom" Qingguo Gong began to make a straight face.

"Oh, isn't this the prince not coming back, I'm worried about my daughter?" Shen rubbed Qingguogong's shoulder, "Tell me about you, the crown prince disappeared at that time, you have to promise the emperor's marriage, in case the prince can't come back, isn't this delaying your daughter for a lifetime?" I'm all thinking about my daughter! ”

"Oh, madam, although I, Cui Fujiang, am a big boss, I'm not a fool, can I joke about my daughter's happiness for a lifetime?" Qing Guogong is unforgiving.

"What do you mean? You already know where the prince went? Do you know when he's coming back? Mrs. Shen seized the loophole in Qing Guogong's speech.

"Uh..."Qing Guogong didn't know what to say.

"Okay, you even hide such a big thing from me? How much else are you hiding from me? As he spoke, Shen began to cry with his back to him.

"Oh, ma'am, don't you know who I am? What do I have to hide from you? It's just that the prince's matter is not trivial, and he can't say it for his husband," Qingguo Gong began to persuade the Shen family.

Shen is also a persuasive person, and immediately stopped crying, "Even I can't say it?" ”

Qingguo Gong shook his head, "Uh-huh, I can't say it." ”

"Forget it, since you're back, I'll bring you water and wash your feet." Mrs. Shen suddenly became better and began to speak.

"It's been a long time since I've washed my feet, I knew I would have said it a long time ago, and it would be over" Qingguo Gong looked at the back of Shen's going out and muttered, "It's still not good, if you don't come back, you can't reveal the news at all, it's not right, you can't reveal the news when you come back, I have to warn her when Madame comes back." The prince's affairs must not be talked nonsense! ”
