Prisoner of the Eastern Palace

As soon as this sentence was said, Mu Ke regretted it. According to Luo Ange's temperament of opening a dyeing workshop when he gave some color, if he said that he liked him, he would not let his tail go up to the sky. Difficult.

Mu Ke looked down at Luo Ange's face, trying to see some complacency on his face.

But there was no complacent look on that crying miserable little face, but panic and horror, as if it was a very terrible thing to be liked by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Luo Ange's guarded appearance made Mu Ke a little sad, he understood immediately, and sighed slightly, "Forget it, I was too hasty, Xiaoxiao just pretend I didn't say anything."

Luo Ange just clutched the quilt beside him tightly and remained silent.

But when Mu Ke rolled over him to give him medicine, Luo Ange didn't resist so much anymore.

It's not that Luo Ange succumbed, it's just that he thought clearly: the matter has come to this point, and people have already been treated like this, so what else can we do?Could it be that he wants him to do the same to His Highness the Crown Prince in order to avenge him?

His body is his own, and he is the one who hurts in the end if he loses his temper and doesn't take medicine. Luo Ange never wrongs himself in this regard.

Mu Ke carefully applied the medicine to him, took a wet handkerchief and wiped his hands, then pulled up the quilt to cover him.

Seeing him silent and docile, Mu Ke felt better, so he coaxed him: "Xiaoxiao, your birthday will be seven days later, what do you want?"

"Birthday?" Luo Ange was taken aback, and couldn't help turning to look at him.

Having encountered such a big change, he had long forgotten his birthday. If Mu Ke hadn't suddenly mentioned it today, Luo Ange probably wouldn't have remembered it.

Looking at Luo Ange's dazed little face, Mu Ke thought it was funny, and said softly, "Yes, what do you want?"

"I can do whatever I want?" Luo Ange asked tentatively.

Mu Ke thought that if he really wanted anything, he was afraid that this brat would immediately ask for a glass of poisonous wine, so he just replied ambiguously: "You tell me what you want first."

Luo Ange hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice, "I want to go back to Yunle once."

At that moment, Mu Ke's eyes seemed to turn cold, Luo Ange was startled, before he could move, the prince's expression had returned to the original, almost making Luo Ange think that the cold and unhappy eyes just now were an illusion.

Mu Ke asked patiently, "Why do you want to return to Yunle?"

Luo Ange was speechless.Yunle is his home, he was born and raised here, and will be buried there in the future, do you need any reason to go back?

Mu Ke guessed, "Is it worried about your younger brother? Then I can tell you first that Luo Yanyu has been named the King of Yunle Fan. According to the notes sent by the officials over there, there should be a very important person beside him. Do you need a great eunuch?"

"It's Congguang." Luo Ange replied in a low voice, "Congguang is a very strategic person, and he is also very loyal to Yan Yu."

"That's it. With him, your brother can't suffer. Besides, the officials sent by the imperial court are to help your Yunle prosper. Why did they bully you? If your Yunle has not improved, when the time comes If we don’t pay taxes, we will still lose.”

Mu Ke's words are very reasonable, but Luo Ange is still worried. If you don't see him with your own eyes, you won't be able to get over this hurdle, "What about the snow disaster? What about the victims? And spring is coming, have you mobilized for spring plowing? "

He used to deal with these things, but now that he is in a foreign land, he can only worry here, but there is nothing he can do.

Mu Ke looked at him helplessly, this man really has a worrying temper, no wonder his name is called Xiao Zheng.

In order to comfort Luo Ange's heart, and also for his own selfishness of not wanting to let Luo Ange return to Yunle, the prince told Luo Ange what he knew about Yunle's situation. Of course, he only picked up some good stories. .

"Spring is about to start now, and Yunle is already preparing for spring plowing. The officials sent by the imperial court also brought more labor-saving waterwheel technology. When summer comes, we are going to open a business route in Yunle. Now..."

Mu Ke paused, and covered up the words that Yunle has belonged to Yi Kingdom, and just said: "There is no need to pay customs duties now, and when the trade roads are opened, Yunle will also prosper. will suffer."

After saying these words, Luo Ange's expression softened a lot.

Mu Ke knew that his almost coercive behavior today must have made him uncomfortable and wronged, so he said something that made him happy to comfort his heart.

Luo Ange cares most about Yunle's people, and Mu Ke can only comfort him from this aspect.

Luo Ange huddled under the quilt and remained silent for a while, before carefully saying: "During the war, the most innocent people are the common people. In fact, those in power want to expand the territory and start wars for the sake of the common people, but once they lose, the ones who suffer are still People..."

Mu Ke looked at him for a while, stretched out his hand to touch his face, wiped his thumb on the tender red lips, he lowered his voice and said persuasively, "As long as you are obedient, they won't suffer, understand?"

The body under his hands seemed to stiffen for a moment, Luo Ange bit his lips, and after a long time, Luo Ange let out a soft breath, with a wry smile on his lips, "I see, I've always been very obedient, haven't I?" ?"

Under the shadow of the candlelight, Luo Ange's eyes were flickering and blurry. At that moment, Mu Ke almost thought that Luo Ange's mood had changed, but he quickly denied this idea. Luo Ange was so stubborn. A person who will stand on the city wall in white clothes and jump off the martyrdom without hesitation, how can he change just because of a few words of himself.

Forget it, don't be in a hurry.

Mu Ke thought about this, so he smiled, tucked the quilt for Luo Ange, and continued to discuss the birthday celebration, "You don't need to go back to Yunle now, the journey is far away, and you are impatient, how about This birthday is still celebrated in the East Palace?"

Although it was a questioning tone, Luo Ange knew that the prince was stating the facts.

But now that the facts are settled, Luo Ange doesn't intend to wrong himself.

If it was someone else, they might be depressed and say something casually, but Luo Ange is different, he thought for a while, "What's so interesting about the East Palace?"

When he asked such a question, Mu Ke was stunned.Even a three-year-old child knows that the Imperial Palace is a solemn and solemn place, and the East Palace is the residence of the prince, so it is naturally an awe-inspiring palace. If it is fun, it is not half as lively as the street market outside.

Mu Ke originally wanted to say that he could take him to the countryside for hunting, but before he could say anything, he remembered what happened to the hunting ground last time.

Mu Ke didn't want him to remember that unpleasant experience, so he changed his words: "Why don't you invite a troupe in and hold a banquet for you in the East Palace?"

"I want to watch Yunle's Flower Drum Opera..." Luo Ange couldn't help but feel homesick, and he finally experienced the pain of being in Cao Ying and heart in Han.

Mu Ke also heard that the Huagu Opera at Yunle is very special, and because Luo Ange looks so pitiful, he showed mercy and said, "Of course it is possible, I will ask someone to find you a dancer at Yunle." The theater troupe, 20 years old is a big birthday, we should celebrate it well."

He had already wronged Luo Ange in bed affairs, so he wanted to make up for him in other ways.
