In the Nineteenth Palace, Seocho, who came here for the second time, found that the decoration of the palace seemed to have become more gorgeous and brilliant than before.

It was past dusk, and she still felt like she was about to be blinded.

The nineteenth prince who smiled and walked out to greet the two of them, dressed in a wide robe, with wind on his sleeves, still looked like a flower and butterfly.

At this time, it was just time for dinner, and the nineteenth prince naturally ordered someone to set up a banquet.

The banquet is still very rich, and the Buddha jumping over the wall that Seocho loves to eat is naturally indispensable, but compared to the last time, she obviously has no appetite.

Compared with Seocho's spiritless appearance, the Nineteenth Prince obviously encountered something good, and he was in a good mood to send his subordinates down, and he personally poured wine for Mu Yirong and Seocho.

"Last time, the two of you came here for the robbery of the second prince. This time, for what case?"

After asking the question, the nineteenth prince didn't wait for the two to answer, he smiled very ambiguously and looked at Mu Yirong and Ruicao with a scrutinizing gaze: "Something is wrong, the atmosphere between the two of you is not quite right!"

Mu Yirong, who was just smiling, didn't say anything, and glanced at Ruicao affectionately, which was regarded as a reply to the nineteenth prince.

The nineteenth prince was not shocked, revealing that the king had already seen through the adulterous relationship between the two of you, and congratulated Mu Yirong with a smile It is no longer intentional, and the water is ruthless.

Mu Yirong's heart to Mingyue finally got Mingyue's care, and it no longer only shines on the ditch.

Ruicao, who couldn't understand the secret words between the Nineteenth Prince and Mu Yirong, looked at Mu Yirong suspiciously.

Before, Prince Nineteen asked Mu Yirong if he was interested in Ruicao?

Mu Yirong replied at the time, "I was going to have my heart on the bright moon, but I had no choice but to shine on the ditch."

The nineteenth prince, who learned that Mu Yirong and Seocho had the same heart, was even happier than marrying a wife and having a son, and toasted the two vigorously, and said a lot of auspicious words such as wishing the two a hundred years of good together.

Mu Yirong, who was worried that the Nineteenth Prince was overjoyed and drunk, hurriedly turned back to the topic and asked the Nineteenth Prince tentatively, do you know Zhongju, a scholar from Ningzhou who lives in the Laifu Inn?

The nineteenth prince, who was holding the cup, thought for a while before suddenly nodding.

"The king remembers him. But what's wrong with him?"

"He's dead. ”

Seocho, who said this, seemed to put down the big stone that was pressing on his heart, and suddenly had an appetite, picked up the spoon, scooped a large spoonful of sea cucumber into his mouth, and asked the nineteenth prince vaguely: "I heard that you entrusted Qing Yan from Huanxiang Building to go to the Laifu Inn to find scholar Zhongju?"

At first glance, when he heard that the scholar Zhongju had died, the nineteenth prince accidentally spilled wine on his clothes in a bit of a gaffe.

"This king did ask Miss Qingyan to invite the scholar Zhongju to come to the house as a guest, that is because the eldest prince heard that the scholar Zhongju is very talented, and hopes that this king will help introduce him. ”

After saying this, the Nineteenth Prince immediately asked Mu Yirong, how did the scholar Zhongju die?

"He was assassinated. ”

Mu Yirong, who had been holding questions in his heart, quietly examined the expression of the nineteenth prince, and asked tentatively: "The eldest prince admires the scholar Zhongju, why would he ask the prince for a recommendation." I remember, the relationship between the prince and the eldest prince is not so deep?"

The nineteenth prince, whose face showed a wry smile, put the cup on the table and looked directly into Mu Yirong's eyes.

"Yirong, are you suspicious of this king?"

"Did the prince do anything worthy of my suspicion?"

Mu Yirong asked quietly and rhetorically, and the Nineteenth Prince smiled and sighed lightly: "Joking with a serious person like you is a mistake of this king." The scholar Zhongju was not familiar with the king, but the prince asked the king, and the king acted as a bridge and a matchmaker. As for why the eldest prince came to this king, the reason is very simple. Because this king never stands in line, does not involve imperial power, and will not attract attention. ”

The nineteenth prince, who said these words in one breath, said in a relaxed tone that it was the eldest prince who came to the mansion to ask him, and he naturally couldn't save the eldest prince's face.

As for how the eldest prince and the scholar Zhongju will develop after getting acquainted, he doesn't care. After matching the two, his mission was complete.

Mu Yirong, who silently picked up the wine glass, pressed the cold rim of the glass to his lower lip: "Miss Qingyan said that the scholar Zhongju originally refused the invitation of the prince, but changed his mind afterwards. So that night, did the scholar Zhongju come to the house?"

The Nineteenth Prince, who didn't think much about it, immediately nodded, and said that for dinner that day, he had a good conversation with Miss Qingyan, and some drank too much.

After sending off Miss Qingyan, he fell directly drunk at the table, probably at the end of the hour, a servant came to wake him up, saying that Zhongju, a scholar who lived in the Blessing Inn, came to visit.

At that time, the nineteenth prince was so drunk that he didn't think of who was the scholar Zhongju at all, and waved his hand to let the other party go back and come back tomorrow.

But after a while, the servant hurried back again, and said that the scholar Zhongju said that the Nineteenth Prince had asked him to come, and that he had something important to do, and that he must see the Nineteenth Prince tonight.

The nineteenth prince, who had drunk a cup of strong tea, woke up a little bit, and suddenly remembered who the scholar Zhongju was, so he asked the servants to bring him in.

The scholar Zhongju, who followed the servant and walked in quickly, looked dusty, and his hair was a little disheveled, as if he had just fought with someone.

Seeing him like this, the Nineteenth Prince did not let him salute, so he asked him what had happened and why he had to meet tonight?

The next day is Enke's exam, so I have to meet in a hurry tonight, and Scholar Zhongju replied like this.

But when the Nineteenth Prince saw that his eyes were flickering, and he looked a little absent-minded and frightened, he immediately realized that the problem was not simple, so he ordered someone to bring hot tea and snacks, and asked the scholar Zhongju to sit down and take a breath first, and then let all the subordinates retreat, so that they could speak with peace of mind.

After drinking hot tea, the scholar Zhongju, who had eased his mood a lot, asked the nineteenth prince, can the eldest prince come here tonight?

The hour was close to midnight, and the eldest prince should have rested early, so the nineteenth prince asked the scholar Zhongju if there was anything important, and he must inform the eldest prince tonight?

If there is nothing important, after the scholar Zhongju exam is completed, he can recommend the two of them again. If there is something important, don't hesitate to tell him about it first. If it is really urgent, he will send someone to the Great Prince's Mansion to deliver a letter to see if the Great Prince can come here.

After pouring a cup of hot tea, the scholar Zhongju, who had hesitated for a long time, took out something from his arms and handed it to the Nineteenth Prince.

Speaking of the critical moment, the nineteenth prince suddenly stopped, and Mu Yirong, who had a bad feeling in his heart, frowned slightly, and asked, "What is it?"
