My Heart Peach Blossom Spring

The team that welcomed Ji Huai back to the imperial city was very small and perfunctory, which shows that Ji Huai's status in the imperial city has plummeted.

When Tao Tao knocked on the door this morning, Tao Tao was making breakfast, and he asked Ji Huai to eat a bowl of noodles while it was hot.If there was any urging, Tao Tao secretly cast a spell to startle their horses.They were made to toss back and forth, sweating profusely, and they didn't stop until Ji Huai finished eating breakfast.

The leading eunuch was a stalking villain, he twisted his face several times and wanted to scold Ji Huai, but he suppressed it.He only glanced at Ji Huai a few times, and said in a low voice, "You will see me then."

Ji Huai didn't hear it, but Tao Tao did.

But the eunuch obviously didn't take Tao Tao seriously. Tao Tao, who never liked to use fairy arts in the mortal world, couldn't help but make the eunuch fall twice.

The eunuch was so embarrassed, seeing Ji Huai who was sitting comfortably, he squeezed his throat and said, "The fourth prince's fortune is all thanks to the second prince's blessing. Although they are brothers, they are so different, and each has its own merits. And the fourth prince's color is more prominent, he has become a living god in this green mountains and green waters." He teased, causing the people in the same company to cover their mouths and laugh, they were laughing at Ji Huai's downfall.

Tao Tao was furious, and when she was about to retort, Ji Huai suppressed her hand: "Let them say."

"Did they say that about you before?" Tao Tao was so distressed.

"It's okay." How could Ji Huai not care, he was famous in the palace for his lonely temperament.Today's patience was just because he was afraid that Tao Tao's quarrel with the eunuch would be remembered by others, and if he deliberately staggered him to make things difficult for Tao Tao in the future, it would be bad.

He could only comfort Tao Tao: "We don't care about them."

Tao Tao was already angry, and she waved her hand to make the eunuch's forehead fall with bird droppings, which relieved her anger a bit.

The carriage outside has been prepared, and all the things in the house have been tidied up. After ten years, Ji Huai actually has nothing else he must bring except a few sets of clothes.Tao Tao helped Ji Huai get into the carriage, and then kicked herself up.

"Tao Tao?"

"I didn't promise you last night."

Tao Tao stuffed the honey cake wrapped in oil paper into his hand, saying something wrong: "I know we are leaving, Aunt Zhang brought it this morning, I don't know when I will be back from here..." When he said this, She looked lonely, but still made her voice a little more cheerful, "When I come back, I will send her some herbs to thank her."

There is no return date, but the words should be more complete.

After all, Ji Huai's death is just to return to the immortal way and abandon the suffering.For him, it is good; for Tao Tao, it is the last time to spend together in this love disaster.

But Ji Huai didn't appreciate it, and threw the honey cake back into his hand: "Go down!"

"No."

"Tao Tao, why are you disobedient?!" He deliberately lowered his voice, so as not to be heard outside, "I said, I will come back to you..."

"Even if I can come back, why did you abandon me now?" Tao Tao interrupted him, "You're bluffing me."

Tao Tao spoke the truth, her tone was hurried, almost crying.He leaned over, and while helping Ji Huai straighten his clothes, he whispered in his ear: "The eunuchs outside are staring at you, don't talk about it." But Tao Tao didn't know that his posture was the same as Ji Huai in the eyes of outsiders Extremely ambiguous.

The little eunuch narrowed his eyes and snorted disdainfully.

Ji Huai couldn't beat Tao Tao, just like Tao Tao couldn't win his liking back then.He had no choice but to give up, and was so worried along the way that he couldn't even eat a few mouthfuls of honey cake, and he didn't even want to hold Tao Tao's hand.There was a breath in his heart, and Tao Tao was so disobedient.

When he arrived in the imperial city, if something happened, how could he, a blind man who lost his power, protect Tao Tao?

It took half a month to go back to the imperial city, and Ji Huai seldom spoke in this half month, as if he was deliberately ignoring Tao Tao, wanting him to go back several times.But Tao Tao still bites the bullet and follows, feeling sore in her heart.

Tao Tao had heard Ruofeng talk about the imperial city before, and knew it was a prosperous place.It's the first time I came here today, and I can't help but feel very depressed when I see the vermilion-covered gate hall, which is majestic but luxuriant.

And Ji Huai was arranged in the dilapidated mansion, the place was deserted, it could be seen that it had been hastily cleaned out not long ago to live in.Tao Tao put away the soft clothes, took out a quilt from the cabinet and put it on the bed.He didn't speak, Ji Huai was relatively silent, the two each had their own concerns.

Tao Tao sorted out a suit of decent clothes for him, and tugged at his sleeves.

Ji Huai stood up and asked Tao Tao to help him change the old clothes on his body.Tao Tao put her wrist around Ji Huai's waist, and tied his belt for him. The movements were light and skillful, a habit she had developed in the past ten years.

He didn't even have time to rest when he arrived in the imperial city, so he went to the palace to kneel before the emperor and attend a so-called family banquet, but the people who came to pick him up were already waiting outside.

"Did they arrange servants here?" Ji Huai broke the silence.

Tao Tao said sullenly: "No." She thought they wished you would starve to death, but luckily she followed.

"I remember that there are food shops just outside the street. Don't be hungry at night, go out and buy something to eat." The imperial palace does not allow grassroots people like Tao Tao to enter. The fate of this time is unknown, and Ji Huai has no plan to bring it with him. He entered the palace together.

Tao Tao responded in a low voice, and took a step back.

"You yourself are disobedient, and you still get angry with me?" Ji Huai sighed, feeling very helpless.

"I do not have."

"Your voice has changed, why don't you say no?"

Tao Tao sniffed, "I'm worried about you." Finally, she added, "You are the one who ignores me first."

Knowing that he had gone too far, Ji Huai lowered his tone, instinctively stretched out his hand to hook Tao Tao's little finger, and interlocked his hand with his own: "It's just the first day here, everything is still uncertain, don't always scare yourself."

"Ah."

No need to think about it, she knew that Tao Tao's eyes must be red and her nose must be astringent, perhaps full of grievances and complaints.

Ji Huai felt aggrieved and uncomfortable, he held the bamboo stick and let go of Tao Tao's hand.The people outside couldn't wait, they had already entered the door and urged Ji Huai to leave, their words were always harsh.

Tao Tao glared at the man secretly, only thinking that he was just as annoying as the eunuch before.

Actually, this is Ji Huai's second time attending a family banquet.

The first time I went there was in the year of Jihuai, and it was also in the Flower Lake Court in the palace.

Ji Huai hadn't been invited to the family banquet in the palace since he was a child, but the archery was so good that the emperor specially ordered Ji Huai to come over.Xu is that the emperor is getting older, and he misses his heroic figure when he was young. He thinks that Ji Huai is very similar to him.

It was the first time for Ji Huai to go to a family banquet, and he was quite nervous.He thought that when he got there, he would have a few words with his brother.Ask him why he hasn't come to him recently, he also wants to thank his brother, he owes him the kindness he never gave up today.

It's a pity that Ji Huai's full of gratitude is a joke in the eyes of others.

"This year's family banquet, the fourth brother actually came, it's really unlucky. If he stepped on the ground, I want the servants to wipe it for me. I really thought that I could shoot an arrow and climb to the sky, and I didn't even look at myself. What kind of virtue." The person who said this was standing under the willow tree, dressed luxuriously, and his words were full of impatience and arrogance.Ji Huai knew him, he was the eldest prince of the dynasty, the only son of the empress, and the most likely person to be the heir apparent.

And the one who responded was actually his own brother.

His tone was quite low, with a hint of sarcasm: "That ignorant thing, I thought it was the same biological mother, I rewarded him with food, but he really thought he could climb up by himself. If I were him, I would live like this!" Like, he was killed by a head-on blow."

With a chuckle, Ji Huai only felt numbness in his hands and feet, and this family banquet couldn't be more enjoyable.

This was his only impression of the family banquet that year, of contempt, disdain, and rejection.

Now, Ji Huai can no longer see his brother's domineering appearance.Thanks to him, Ji Huai became completely blind.

I haven't seen each other in ten years, full of resentment, mixed with helplessness.

The palace man who supported him led him to a place: "Your Majesty, the fourth prince is here."

Hearing the sound, Ji Huai knelt down and saluted: "Royal Father."

The emperor's voice was much older, it was approaching twilight, his eyes were cloudy, and he raised his hand with difficulty and said, "Huai'er, please take a seat." What he made up for Ji Huai was just to make his old age feel better.

Ji Huai's elder brother, the second prince, is taking care of the emperor, looking like a filial son.The emperor also benefited from his filial piety, and the recall of Ji Huai this time deepened the emperor's trust in the second prince.Occasionally, the second prince would be called to the study to remember him and Ji Huai's deceased mother and concubine.

But the emperor didn't know that every time he said this, the second prince would show deep disgust and hatred on his invisible side.He hated this man who ignored his mother and concubine in the cold, and also hated Ji Huai who took his mother and concubine's life.But these two people, one is his father and the other is his only brother.

His father gave him and his mother an unforgettable cold palace period, he hated it, but there was nothing he could do about it.But Ji Huai, as long as he took the life of his mother and concubine, he will come later to grab his position in front of the emperor.

From this, he derived from hatred to deeper jealousy.

Ten years ago, he could push Ji Huai to death with his own hands, and now he can also cheat the throne from the aging emperor.His difficult steps are all for himself.

After Ji Huai finished his ceremony, the second prince stepped forward, held his hand, and said cordially: "Fourth brother, your eyesight is inconvenient, I will take you to your seat."

Ji Huai frowned, and wanted to withdraw his hand, but the second prince pinched him tightly, with terrifying strength.The second prince lowered his voice and whispered in Ji Huai's ear: "Be honest, if you don't want the person who came with you to die unexpectedly."

"You?!" Ji Huai was terrified in his heart, not daring to speak out, "What did you do to him?!"

"Anxin dinner, you will see him when you go back." The second prince smiled lightly, "I never knew that the fourth brother was so fond of it. I heard from the eunuch beside me that the young lady you brought was handsome and lovely, and he followed the fourth brother." what a pity."

Ji Huai held his wrist with his backhand, and said in a firm tone, "Don't draw his attention, he is not the little girl you mentioned."

"A blind man should do his duty. Today is a good day. Don't make me angry."

The second prince pushed him to sit on the wooden chair, and pressed his shoulders, "Be quiet, I won't touch your people."

In fact, the second prince didn't do anything to Tao Tao, he just gave Ji Huai a try.Sure enough, Ji Huai has an inseparable connection with the people he brought.If this is the case, Ji Huai will be easy to control in the future.

The second prince heaved a sigh of relief, feeling much more at ease.

But Ji Huai froze, wishing he could return to Tao Tao's side in the next moment, to confirm that Tao Tao was intact.

This dinner was the same as that year, and the taste was unrecognizable.

During the dinner, Ji Huai heard the emperor ask the eldest prince.

The eunuch beside him responded: "The eldest prince was overly sad because of the abolition of the empress, so he refused the dinner." After speaking, he lifted his eyes slightly and glanced at the second prince.

The emperor was displeased and shook the wine glass. The princes and princesses below all lowered their heads, and no one dared to say anything.Only the second prince responded calmly, comforted the emperor with a few words, and in his words, he always read the eldest prince's favor.

"What's wrong?! His mother and concubine are arrogant and arrogant. I just abolished her queen position, and their relatives can't hold back! It's the opposite of me to repeat my duties!" The emperor panted heavily and pressed the button. Holding the second prince's hand, "Yu'er, I will decree to pass on the crown prince position to you today! Let that stupid thing continue to be with his mother and concubine!"

"My son, thank you for your great love!"

"Don't think that when I'm old, I can turn my world against me...cough cough..."

"Father will last forever, who can oppose Father's world!"

……

Ji Huai's face was sullen, unwilling to continue listening to the hypocritical compliments.The emperor is really old, and it's easy to be deceived if he is confused.Maybe the world in the future will really belong to my brothers.Ji Huai fumbled on the table for a while, restlessly, and touched the wine glass.
