Outside the Prince's Mansion
"Lord, the emperor has ordered someone to renovate the prince's mansion, and all the food and clothing have been purchased, please come into the palace to rest."
"Thank you",
"Lord, the official will return to the palace to resume his life",
"There is Prime Minister Lao",
"Lord Wang, the lower officials will no longer delay the rest of the prince, and the lower officials will retire first", King Lin nodded, and Murong pulled his head and turned to leave.
King Lin looked at the plaque of Prince Lin's mansion and took a breath and said, "Go in",
"No", Xing Tianyuan helped King Lin into the palace, and the subordinates sent by the emperor to serve King Lin had gone down to the courtyard to wait for King Lin, and when he saw King Lin walking in, he said in unison: "See, Lord Wang", "Excuse me", a person wearing the costume of the chief steward walked over to King Lin.
"See King Lin", "Who are?" ”,
"Slave Zhanrong, it is the head of affairs sent to the palace by the Queen Mother to take charge of the internal affairs of Prince Lin's mansion", King Lin nodded.
"From then on, the affairs of this house, big and small, will be bothered to be the main business",
"Lord, you are a tormented minion, you don't dare to be the word tired, even if the prince has something to order, the slave will definitely handle the affairs of the house properly", King Lin coughed lightly.
"Director Zhan, the prince is tired on the road, and he is also troublesome to lead the way, so that the prince can rest for a while", Xing Tianyuan said.
"Yes, yes, the slave will lead the way for the prince, please come with the slave", the director of the exhibition walked a little ahead, and said while leading the way to the king: "Lord, this house, before you came back, the emperor had ordered people to cultivate well, and the Dongnuan Pavilion where you lived when you were young, the emperor ordered people to expand a little, and also built a hot spring pool, which was used by the king to regulate his body", and he arrived at the Dongnuan Pavilion while speaking.
"Lord Wang, please", Xing Tianyuan helped King Lin into the Dongnuan Pavilion and sat on the chair,
"Lord Wang, this upstairs on the left-hand side is the place to sleep, you take a rest first, and the slave will order someone to prepare lunch", King Lin nodded, and the director of Zhan retreated.
"Bring me the king's medicine box",
"No", Xing Tianyuan took out the medicine box he carried with him and handed it to King Lin.
"The palace is not badly repaired, it is more magnificent than our North Underworld Mansion, the weather in the capital is warmer, our clothes seem to be a little thicker, and the prince doesn't know what to eat here, you can still eat it", Xing Tianyuan said to himself on the side, but King Lin kept looking at the medicine bottle in the box in his hand and did not speak.
"Prince, prince, ......", Xing Tianyuan saw that King Lin had not responded, and called lightly.
King Lin was a little troubled by Xing Tianyuan's quarrel and asked, "How is Tao Le's side?" ”,
"The Tao guards and the guards are camped outside the city, and after you face the saint in front of Ming'er, you will listen to the holy will", King Lin nodded lightly and said: "Then you go down first, and arrange the people and things brought from the North Hades Mansion with the director of Zhan",
"No, my subordinates will do it",
"Wait", "What else does the prince command?" ”,
"You don't have to call this king for lunch, this king is a little tired, I want to rest for a while, don't bother if you have nothing to do",
"No", Xing Tianyuan retreated.
The side hall of Changning Palace.
"Niangniang, King Lin arrived in the capital this morning, and now he is resting in Prince Lin's mansion, and Ming'er Yushu is facing the saint",
"Well, have all the affairs of the house been arranged?" ,
"The slave has sent Zhanrong to bring some clever subordinates to the prince's mansion to serve",
"That's good, Xi'er can't be the slightest bit lazy on his side",
"Niangniang, you can rest assured, the emperor's side has already made arrangements, we are just icing on the cake", Mo Niang deliberately mentioned Emperor Yan, wanting to see Xia Ji's reaction.
"Xi'er is weak, let the people you send take care of it",
"No", Xia Ji has never let go of her mustard for Emperor Yan, and she doesn't even want to mention it, when will the relationship between mother and son be restored to the same as before.
The next day, in the Dongnuan Pavilion, several subordinates were grooming and changing clothes for King Lin. "What time is it?" ,
"Back to the prince, it's just time to get up now", King Lin stood up slowly, and said flatly: "Go, enter the palace to face the saint", "No, my subordinates will go to prepare the car"
"Go down, all of you",
"No", after the maids retreated, King Lin walked to the low stool next to the couch, picked up the medicine box, opened it and looked at it, and made sure that the medicine bottle was fine, so he put the medicine box away, tidied up his collar a little, stroked his sleeves, and walked out of the East Warm Pavilion.
The carriage carrying King Lin drove all the way to the palace of the capital, there were several palace people at the gate of the palace carrying a sedan chair and waiting at the palace gate, because King Linwang was weak and the emperor allowed him to take a sedan chair into the palace, outside the palace gate, King Lin got off the carriage and changed to the soft sedan chair prepared in the palace, while Xing Tianyuan stayed in the carriage outside the palace and waited.
Linwang's palanquin soon arrived outside the palace gate, Yan Gonggong had already waited for the arrival of Linwang outside the palace, and after the palanquin landed, the palace people helped Linwang out of the sedan chair.
"See the King",
"Father-in-law Yan, hurry up and be exempt from courtesy", King Lin stepped forward and helped Gonggong Yan up, Gonggong Yan looked at King Lin's eyes were a little moist, the heirs of the first prince were thin, just two sons, King Lin was away since childhood, Gonggong Yan was a little distressed.
"Father-in-law Yan, I haven't seen you for a long time, your old body is good",
"Thank you for your concern, the old slave's body is still tough", Yan Gonggong raised his hand and wanted to touch King Lin, he hadn't seen him for a long time, and he missed it tightly.
Because of his identity, he didn't dare to cross the rules, and took it back, King Lin saw his thoughts, took the initiative to hold Yan Gongcheng's hand that was about to be retracted and said: "Seeing that you are old and healthy, this king is very happy, Yan Gonggong, you have to live a long life."
"Good, good", Father-in-law Yan's voice trembled a little.
The already moist eyes couldn't help but shed tears at this time, "Father-in-law Yan, don't be like this, this king is back, there are not many opportunities to meet in the future, don't think this king is annoying when the time comes."
"Old slave, how can you be tired of the prince, the old slave is willing to see the prince", King Lin smiled, this was the first time he smiled from the bottom of his heart since leaving the northern border,
"The emperor is still waiting, let's go to face the saint first!" ,
"Yes, yes, face the saint first, face the saint first, you see, the old slave is really old, and such an important matter has been delayed", said Yan Gonggong led King Lin to the imperial study.
Inside the Imperial Study.
The Flame Emperor in the dragon chair was reviewing the folds, and Gonggong Yan directly brought King Lin into the imperial study, "King Lin arrived", Emperor Yan raised his head, and saw that King Lin was a little excited in front of him, so he quickly stood up, and walked over to King Lin and called: "Brother Huang", "Minister, see the emperor", King Lin was about to salute Emperor Yan, and was helped up by Emperor Yan who walked quickly.
"Brother Huang, hurry up and excuse me", Emperor Yan held King Lin's arms with both hands, a little excited and a little hard.
"Brother Huang, I haven't seen you for a long time, but you're in good health",
"Emperor Xie cares, and the ministers are all right",
"Since the imperial brother has returned to the capital, I will have to enter the palace more often to see me in the future."
"Of course," said King Lin, coughing lightly.
"Brother Huang, it's okay, Gonggong Yan, hurry, Imperial Doctor Xuan", Emperor Yan said a little nervously.
"No need, the minister is fine, it's the minister's rudeness", "It's me who didn't think about it, someone is coming, hurry up and show the throne to King Lin, Emperor Yan suddenly realized that they were still standing."
