Prisoner of the Eastern Palace

Two days passed like flowing water. On the day of Luo Ange's birthday, the prince woke him up early in the morning from his bed.

Luo Shaoqing has always felt a lot, and she refuses to get up until the sun is high, especially for her birthday today, Luo Shaoqing feels that she is even more delicate, and she can't wait to sleep until noon and eat dinner directly.

So when Mu Ke called him, he was not happy, snapped the hand of His Highness the Crown Prince, muttered, don't touch me, then wrapped up the quilt again and fell asleep soundly.

Mu Ke rubbed his red hand, helplessly looking at the little thing curled up in front of him.

The custom of their Yichao side is to eat a bowl of longevity noodles in the morning on their birthday, so that they can live a long and safe life.This custom has been passed down for a long time, whether it is common people or royal nobles, they all believe in it.

Of course Mu Ke hoped that Luo Ange would be safe and sound, so he patiently brought Luo Ange over, kissed him on the neck, and coaxed him softly: "Hey, wake up, it's time for breakfast."

Luo Ange closed his eyes, and said in a daze, "Leave it for now, I'll eat it at noon."

"..." Mu Ke raised his eyebrows, bent down dangerously, bit Luo Ange's ear, and breathed out hotly, "If you don't get up again, I will do something you don't want to do."

Luo Ange shivered, opened his eyes suddenly, and threw off the quilt, "Wake up, wake up! Get up now!"

Mu Ke smiled in satisfaction, "Okay, let's go get dressed."

So Luo Ange's 20th birthday began in such a wrong way.

First of all, he tactfully rejected the prince's suggestion of wearing the tender red dress, Luo Ange chose a bluish-white gown with a dark waist, which perfectly outlined the waistline.

Mu Ke looked at him with unclear eyes for a long time, and Luo Ange's heart trembled, so he quickly took a large cloak and put it on.

After getting dressed, Luo Ange sat at the table staring at the steaming bowl of noodles in a daze, and took a long time to poke the noodles with chopsticks, "What is this?"

Mu Ke coughed lightly, with an unnatural expression on his face, "Longevity Noodles."

"Oh." Luo Ange couldn't deny it, it's a well-known custom to eat longevity noodles on birthdays.

But...is this bowl of noodles not quite right?

Luo Ange picked up two pieces of noodles and took a closer look. The noodles were too hard, as if they were undercooked, but the rapeseed inside was rotten, and the noodle soup was suspiciously green. Meat looks normal.

Luo Ange tried to eat a mouthful of venison, but immediately vomited it out. The meat was so salty that he killed the salt seller.The celadon bowl of this noodle is so beautiful, but it is filled with such unpalatable noodles, it is really wronged.

Luo Ange clasped his chest to calm himself down, turned to look at Mu Ke, and asked tentatively, "Prince, is the cook in the East Palace not in a good mood today? Why do I feel that this side, um... is a bit too unpalatable?"

"..." Mu Ke looked out of the window expressionlessly, "I cooked this bowl of longevity noodles."

"..." Luo Ange fell silent.

People say that His Highness the Crown Prince is knowledgeable, strategizing, and martial arts capable, and he can fight on horses and he can rule when he is off horses, but who would know that this person is not only blind when picking clothes, but also can eat dead people when cooking?

But in the end, it is the noodles cooked by His Royal Highness, even if it is unpalatable, it is still coated with a layer of gold. When Luo Ange looks at the bowl of noodles again, he always feels that this noodles should be worshiped, not used. Come to eat.

Thinking of this, Luo Ange rubbed his chair and stood up, and said with a sneer: "The noodles made by His Highness are really disgusting to me, I really can't afford it, I'm afraid it will shorten my life if I eat it, so let's leave it to you .”

Mu Ke glanced at him, picked up the chopsticks and took a bite, then put down the chopsticks calmly, "Let's ask the dining room to make another bowl."

"...Okay." Luo Ange didn't want to embarrass Mu Ke too much. After all, the prince was embarrassed, and maybe he would be the one who was unlucky in the end.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the cook made new longevity noodles and brought them out. The soup was clear and rich, the meat was soft and crispy, the noodles were even in thickness, white and tender soaked in the soup, and the fragrance was so strong that it would make a certain prince feel ashamed and hang himself in the southeast. branch.

After eating and drinking enough, the show will begin.

The prince is self-disciplined and self-disciplined. The East Palace is rarely so lively. The young maids and eunuchs are all active, and they are very happy to decorate the various courtyards. It can be regarded as a joy for Shaoqing's birthday.

Even the older ones, such as princes and fathers, were amazed.The East Palace seldom holds celebrations, and if there is no celebration, it will become a blockbuster. This one is luxurious and full of momentum, and this celebration banquet is still held for Shaoqing.

Wang Gonggong has a bottom line in his heart, and this time his prince must have been sincerely moved.

In the middle of the large open space in the garden, a stage as high as one person was set up, facing a small two-story building, with one side open, facing the stage, with a panoramic view of the stage, and a good view.

The table had already been set up in the small building, and dozens of plates of pastries, candied fruit, and hot and cold meals were placed neatly in the shape of flowers.

Luo Ange followed Mu Ke up to the second floor, and before he was seated, he saw that the fourth prince Mu Yuan was already sitting there.

According to the rules, seniors and young are orderly. If the crown prince does not come, no one dares to eat with chopsticks, so Mu Yuan just sat at the table in a regular manner, but he was already a little hungry. Seeing the crown prince coming up, he hurriedly said: "Brother, You're finally here, I'm starving to death..."

Before he finished speaking, Mu Yuan saw Luo Ange behind the prince, and couldn't help being taken aback.

The Fourth Prince is young and likes to be lively. This time I heard that the East Palace held a celebration banquet, and they came here specially to join in the excitement. As for what the banquet was for celebration, Mu Yuan didn't know, so he saw Luo An at this moment song, I was a little surprised.

At this time, Luo Ange crossed the forest and saw Mu Yuan, passing Mu Ke's body, and a bit of displeasure appeared on his face, as if he was also another master of the East Palace, and he did not welcome the fourth prince as an unexpected guest.

Enemies were extremely jealous when they met each other, the fourth prince hated Luo Ange's revenge, and Luo Ange also hated the lives of the Yunle slaves in the hands of the fourth prince.

Mu Ke sighed, took the Luoan singer by the hand and coaxed softly: "Okay, today is your birthday, so don't worry about those things from the past, you will spoil your mood for nothing."

Luo Ange snorted, and gave Mu Yuan a cold look, as if deliberately annoyed him, and sat down on the main seat.

That was the crown prince's seat, and Luo Ange's move was almost shocking, it was a crime of rudeness!A group of young maids next to her knelt down in fright, and Yao Hua hurried up to make a relief in a low voice: "Shaoqing is new here and doesn't know the rules. This is the seat of His Highness, and your seat is here, Shaoqing."

Luo Ange just pretended not to understand, and had to make an effort to raise Erlang's legs, "But I think this seat is quite comfortable." He also looked up on the stage, "And the view is also good."

When he looked towards the stage, he happened to see a man in coarse clothes standing with his back to him.It seems that a handyman in the theater troupe is moving some scenery.

In the blink of an eye, the man put down the things in his hand, turned around, and glanced at Luo Ange vaguely.

With such a glance, Luo Ange had already seen his face clearly.

In an instant, Luo Ange was covered in cold sweat, stood up abruptly, stared straight at the man, and began to tremble with his hands on the table.

Mu Yuan beside him was still accusing angrily, "Are you tired of working? How dare you sit in the seat of the emperor! Someone, pull him down and beat him to death!"

The raging voice was vague in Luo Ange's ears, he just stared at the man with wide eyes, his lips trembling, and murmured: "Why, why is he here..."

Mu Ke waved his hand, signaling to the furious fourth brother to calm down, "It's okay, it's just a seat, he can sit here if he wants to."

While talking, Mu Ke patted Luo Ange's shoulder, signaling him to sit down.

At this moment, Mu Ke realized that Luo Ange's expression was wrong, and followed his gaze to look at the stage, but only saw a few handymen cleaning the stage, nothing special.

"What's the matter? Are you uncomfortable?" Mu Ke touched Luo Ange's face, and his fingertips felt wet and thin sweat, "Why is your face so pale?"

Luo Ange just came back to his senses, turned his head away quickly, and said in a low voice: "No, it's okay, I'll sit over there."

Mu Ke stared at him inquisitively for a while, then smiled, his eyes doting, "Okay, today is your birthday, you can sit anywhere you want."
