Prisoner of the Eastern Palace

Mu Ke is very used to Luo Ange when it comes to small things, and he keeps his promises.

When Luo Ange opened his eyes the next day, he saw Ah Yu holding a washbasin beside him, with a towel hanging in his arms, looking at him eagerly, "Master, do you want to get up and wash?"

Luo Ange was stunned for a moment, thinking he was dreaming, closed his eyes and lay back down again. After lying down for a few seconds, Luo Ange came back to his senses: By the way, Mu Ke brought them here yesterday, it wasn't a dream .

Luo Ange quickly sat up again, dizzy for a while because he got up too fast, he supported his head and glanced at his side, Mu Ke had disappeared, presumably he had gone to court early, and he didn't call himself.

A Yu was expecting Ai Ai again, and even looked at Luo Ange a little gossip, and asked cautiously: "Young Master, will you sleep in the same bed with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at night?"

"No, I slept on the bed and he slept on the ground." Luo Ange lied casually, squeezed his forehead and got off the bed.

A Yu smiled, "Young master is much more energetic than before. When I was in Yunle, especially in winter, young master can't get up at this time."

Luo Ange is indeed very lethargic. He can't wake up when he sleeps in winter, and he always misses things. Therefore, Luo Ange has to stay up late at night to manage politics, and he can't wake up the next day after staying up late. This is an endless cycle.

Thinking of the past, Luo Ange couldn't help laughing, and touched A Yu's head, "It's probably the beginning of spring, it's been a lot warmer recently, and it won't make people so sleepy."

While waiting for Luo Ange to wash his face, Ah Yu said, "Isn't it? When the spring breeze blows in March, some early spring flowers in the yard will sprout buds."

"Then you can go and have a look and enjoy the scenery." Luo Ange smiled with great interest.

In fact, he himself has no interest in viewing flowers, but these children are as lonely and far away in a foreign land as he is. Luo Ange doesn't want them to worry, so his master must be calm and composed.

These young people are also naive, they only think about their master's sake, even if they see that Luo Ange and Mu Ke are having trouble, they will not say anything, they probably think that what the master does is right.

Luo Ange couldn't help thinking about Mei Luzhi, his eyes darkened a little.

Seeing Luo Ange's gloomy expression, Ah Yu asked timidly, "Master, do you want to go to the garden now? Ah Yu is going to get a cloak, it's still a bit cold in the morning."

Luo Ange shook his head, forced a smile and said, "Wait a while, I'll go to the study first and finish today's work."

Since the arrival of these three children, Luo Ange's mood has become better, and he is not as cold as before when facing His Highness the Crown Prince, or he always finds it difficult to find pleasure for him. Occasionally, when he is happy, he will take the initiative Tell him something interesting about the day.

Mu Ke was very relieved, and felt that the method he came up with was very good, completely forgetting that it was Wang Gonggong who made the suggestion at the beginning.

Only Chen Ting fell into growing impatience.

Congguang gave him a deadline of two months, but he hasn't made any progress.

Regardless of whether he can make a move against his former master, even if he is determined to kill him, he will not find a chance at all.

First of all, no matter where Luo Ange went, he would always follow a few eunuchs and guards with his hand, which was arranged by the prince and could not be distracted.Besides, he couldn't hide cold weapons like daggers in the East Palace.

YU and XI Xi Chen Ting wanted to poison Luo Ange's food, but in the East Palace, the master's meals were all supervised by his confidantes, and the cups, bowls, dishes, etc. were also strictly watched, and there was no chance of poisoning at all. .

Moreover, Luo Ange always had meals with the prince, and before the food was served, there was a special person to test the poison, and the possibility of success was very slim.

Seeing the days go by day by day, Chen Ting became more and more worried about his sister who was far away in Yunle, who was always distracted when doing things, a little muddleheaded.

Luo Ange was keenly aware that something was wrong with him, and once asked a few words intentionally or unintentionally, Chen Ting lied and said that he missed his hometown and was just a little sad.

Luo Ange didn't think deeply, turned his head to look at the bright sunshine outside the window, and said with a smile: "The weather is nice today, let's go for a walk in the garden, it's really uncomfortable to be bored in the house all the time."

Chen Ting nodded thoughtfully, took Luo Ange's cloak and waited for him to put it on.

The two master and servant went out of the room one after the other, Chen Ting glanced at the back from the corner of his eye, and sure enough, he saw a few guards not far or near behind.

Luo Ange probably didn't like being followed, and had had a fight with Mu Ke for a while, but after learning the lesson from Mei Luzhi last time, the prince was very determined to ask people to follow him.

It was only later that Luo Ange made a lot of noise, so he made a slight concession: These guards would not follow closely behind Luo Ange, but just followed at a distance, about a dozen steps away.

The two of them strolled around the garden for a while. At this time, the winter jasmine had already bloomed, and the golden flower branches hung down on the water's edge. The yellow reflection of the flowers on the water surface was very beautiful.

Luo Ange stood by the water for a while, while Chen Ting was silently thinking behind him.

What if we push him into the water at this time?No, let's not mention that the water is not very deep, and the guards behind are not too far away, so they can rush to rescue him in time.

If you miss once, you will lose the whole game.

Chen Ting was terrified that something would happen to his sister, staring blankly at Luo Ange's back, and slowly clenched his fists.

He had walked through this garden before and remembered a few oleanders growing in the north corner.

Oleander, whether root or branch, leaf or flower, is highly poisonous.

At this time, the oleander has not yet bloomed, but it has already grown leaves.

Chen Ting calmed down, forced a smile on his face, and said softly: "Young Master, I remember that the scenery in the north is also good, do you want to go and have a look?"

Luo Ange did not doubt that he was there, and smiled gently: "Okay, let's go and have a look."

In fact, he came out today mainly to let Chen Ting relax. Such a young child has traveled thousands of miles, wandering in a foreign land, and there are sisters in his family, I am afraid it will not feel good.

Luo Ange can't comfort people, so he can only take him out for a walk to relax.

The two walked slowly, and unknowingly walked to the side of the oleander bushes.

Chen Ting took a deep breath, stroked the branches and leaves of the oleander vaguely, turned his head and said with a smile: "Do you know what this is?"

Luo Ange picked up a leaf and took a closer look, then shook his head sincerely, "I don't know, what is this?"

Chen Ting smiled, "I don't know what it's called, but I used to eat it when I was young."

"Eat this?" Luo Ange put the leaf into his mouth with great interest and licked it, "It doesn't taste good, what's so delicious about it?"

Chen Ting secretly gritted his teeth, finally made up his mind, broke off a twig with his nails, and said softly: "When we were young, our family was poor and we couldn't eat candied fruit, so we ate this to satisfy our cravings. Its juice is sweet, chew it Just like sugar cane."

"Really?" Luo Ange has never heard of any plants that taste like sugar cane. He has always been curious about these little things, so he became interested and took the twig from Chen Ting's hand and put it into his mouth. Chew a few times.

Luo Ange chewed it a few times and found it unpalatable, but he didn't want to spit it out in front of Chen Ting, so he swallowed it reluctantly, and frowned in grievance, "Bitter, Ah Ting, have you admitted your mistake?"

"Is it bitter?" Chen Ting put on a surprised look, scratched his hair, and looked at the oleander carefully, "I was young at that time, I'm afraid I made a mistake, my lord, forgive me, do you want me to go to those places?" Candied fruit, clear your mouth?"

Luo Ange licked his lips and shook his head, "It's okay...it's not very bitter, let's go around and have lunch later."

Chen Ting's expression was a little unnatural, he dodged Luo Ange's gaze, and nodded, "Yes, my lord."

The guards over there couldn't hear what they were talking about, they just thought that Luo Shaoqing was ruining the bushes in the courtyard again, and didn't care much, seeing them walking in again, they continued to follow.

During lunch, Mu Ke came back from the outside. When he entered the door, he saw Luo Ange sitting at the dining table and moving his chopsticks. He couldn't help laughing, twisted Luo Ange's face, and reprimanded him half-truthfully, " You don't know a little bit about dignity, don't you know wait for me for a while?"

Luo Ange's cheeks were bulging, and he raised his eyes, "I'm hungry, I can't wait for you."

"Hungry?" Mu Ke sat next to him and picked up the chopsticks, "What did you do this morning?"

In fact, the guards had already told him about what Luo Ange did in the morning, but Mu Ke just wanted to hear what Luo Ange said with his own ears, so that it would be warm enough.

Luo Ange frowned, stretched out his hand to press his stomach, and said casually: "I didn't do anything, I pulled out all the rare flowers and plants in your garden."

Mu Ke was amused, and knew that Luo Ange was joking, so he followed him and said, "Pull it up, and when spring comes, plant what you like."

The prince standing beside him couldn't help but shudder: Your Highness, do you still remember that your garden is full of rare flowers and plants that are worth a thousand dollars in tribute from the Western Regions? !

Luo Ange felt a little pain in his stomach, but he still insisted on finishing the conversation with Mu Ke, "Then let's grow more edibles, mulberry or something is very good."

Mu Ke couldn't help laughing, "You just like to eat, don't you?"

Just as Luo Ange was about to speak, his eyes glanced at the array of dishes on the table, and suddenly he felt his stomach churning, and couldn't help covering his mouth and retching.

Mu Ke stood up in no time, patted him on the back, and said anxiously: "What's wrong? Where is it uncomfortable?"

"Hmm..." Luo Ange only felt nausea in his stomach, and his stomach hurt badly. He grabbed Mu Ke's arm and tried to stand up, but his legs gave way and he fell into his arms.

Seeing that his face was covered with sweat from the pain, Mu Ke became more and more impatient, and scolded the little eunuch at the door, "What are you still waiting for?! Go and call the imperial doctor!"

The little eunuch panicked when he was yelled at so harshly by the prince, and ran out to ask for the imperial doctor.

Luo Ange gasped for breath, pressed his lower abdomen tightly, and groaned lowly in Mu Ke's arms, "It hurts... my stomach hurts, Mu Ke... I hurt so much..."

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid." Mu Ke was so anxious that his hands trembled, and he didn't know how to comfort him. It was better for Wang Gonggong to be older and more stable, so he hurried over to help Luo Ange, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, let Shaoqing enter first." Lie down in the back room, the imperial doctor will be here soon."

"Yes, Xiaoxiao, let's go inside first." Mu Ke hugged Luo Ange and got up, Luo Ange tightly grabbed Mu Ke's sleeves, just about to stand up, his stomach turned upside down, and he couldn't help it He bent down and vomited.

In the drowsiness, he seemed to feel that Mu Ke was calling his name anxiously, and then Luo Ange felt his eyes go dark, his consciousness receded like a tide, and the darkness came unexpectedly.
