old friends return

The day of the hair tie is approaching.

Emperor Hengde asked Su Wenquan to invite Cheng Muzhi to enter the palace this morning, saying that he was discussing matters related to the mistress of the hairdressing ceremony, but everyone knew who it would be, and this time entering the palace was just to directly inform Cheng Muzhi That's all.After Cheng Muzhi came back, he didn't say anything else, but pestered Liu Qingyan to tie his hair again.

Gently stroking Mu Zhi's hair with his fingers, Liu Qingyan pulled the middle hair up, tied it into a bun with an ebony hairpin, then combed the hair on the side with a wooden comb, and finally tied a jade belt and tassels on the bun. After carefully smoothing out the pendant, he patted Cheng Muzhi, who had been distracted, "Your Highness, it's done."

The voice was so gentle that it was not as cramped as usual. Cheng Muzhi came back to his senses and held his hand, "Ayan, how long can you tie my hair like this?" Liu Qingyan smiled slightly, "Your Highness still has In less than ten days, the hair bun ceremony will be held, and this minister can only give His Highness a youthful hair bun for so long... Your Highness asks this, does it mean that I don’t need my minister to tie your adult hair in the future?"

It was a rare joke, Cheng Muzhi's heart moved, but he didn't answer his words, he just held his hand tighter, Liu Qingyan's face turned red again, he just said that because His Highness was in a bad mood He wanted to be happy, but he was left in such a cold place. He wanted to take his hand out but couldn't bear it, so he scratched his hand twice with his fingertips, "Your Highness? What's wrong with you today?" Cheng Muzhi still didn't answer. After speaking, he turned around with his back on his back, and buried his head in the arms of Liu Qingyan who was standing there.

Liu Qingyan froze suddenly, a little wetness came from his lower abdomen, which made him even more panicked, but he still pretended to calmly comfort his highness despite his unspeakable distress, his hand finally landed on Cheng Muzhi's back after hesitating for a long time , Caressing one after another.Thinking about Cheng Muzhi asking him about the hair tie just now, his pupils shrank suddenly, "Who will be the mistress for the hair tie ceremony, Your Highness?"

Cheng Muzhi's voice was very low, but he still couldn't stop gnashing his teeth, "The eldest prince's biological mother... Concubine Yan Gui..."

Liu Qingyan pinched her fingernails directly in the palm of her hand, the emperor... what was he thinking?Although the matter of His Highness the Crown Prince's mother was suppressed back then, not many people know about it now, but the Emperor himself doesn't know... Why did Concubine Yan Gui be the mistress of this hair tie ceremony?Haven't you ever thought about your child's thoughts... Haven't you... a little heartache?

"Your Highness..." Liu Qingyan squatted down, the deep love and cruelty in his eyes didn't even notice him, "Your Highness..." He finally hugged Cheng Muzhi, the first time he hugged Cheng Muzhi completely and completely Mu Zhi, "Your Highness, I will continue to tie Your Highness's hair in the future. The Emperor asked Concubine Yan Gui to be the mistress this time, probably because she has been the mistress of the eldest prince before and has experience." That's all, don't think too much, Your Highness, okay?"

Cheng Muzhi strangled Liu Qingyan's shoulders, and gradually tightened his grip, almost clamping him into his arms. Then he put down his hands, and returned to his usual careless look, "Of course I know, ah Yan will always be by my side! As for the woman who tied my hair on the day of the hair-tying ceremony, I will treat it as being touched by an annoying person! Hee-hee, Yan...you are finally willing to take the initiative to hug me?"

Liu Qingyan let go of her hand suddenly, and hurriedly said: "It's the minister who overstepped!" As soon as Cheng Mu's face collapsed, he should shut up and enjoy this hard-won tenderness...

Liu Qingyan was still bent over and stuck there, Cheng Muzhi had no choice but to get up and pull him up, and whispered in his ear, "A Yan, can't you not do this? It's so awkward..."

"Your Highness, subject..." What should I say?Do you say that you are abiding by the etiquette of the monarch and his ministers?Or are you afraid that your feelings will be seen by him?Did you have no selfish intentions when you took the initiative to hug him just now?

"Your Highness, I suddenly have an unbearable abdominal pain... I will leave first!" I really had no words to answer. For the first time in my life, I fled in front of Cheng Muzhi in such a shameful way.

Cheng Muzhi watched him run away, as if his heart suddenly felt empty, Ah Yan should be worried about him...

Today, it is really hard to be weak in front of him like this. What Concubine Yan Gui imposed on his concubine mother back then, of course he will repay her with ten times the strength. Brother Huang, when he formally participates in politics after the hair tie ceremony, he will definitely return it slowly!

All his unknown pain and weakness will only be shown in front of Ah Yan alone... Fingers slowly rubbed the ebony hairpin on the bun, and smiled lightly, Ah Yan, you are so smart Why can't people hide their feelings?You obviously have more selfishness towards me... How long will it take before you tell me?Or do you have to wait for me to talk to you first before you are willing to reveal it?

Cheng Muzhi's heart is complicated here, while Liu Qingyan's is so irritable that he is almost jumping in the toilet. However, the good self-cultivation all the time makes him just walk back and forth a few times when he is the most irritable, and gradually calms down again, Your Highness It's not the first time to tease him like this, just pretend that he didn't hear what he said just now, at least when he has already run away, he will never use this reason to tease him a second time... With such a reason, he Confused, Liu Qingyan was a little worried about Cheng Muzhi's appearance just now. For such an important matter as a haircut ceremony, does the emperor not consider his child's feelings at all?Mu Zhi was so uncomfortable just now... Your Majesty... why can he be so ruthless!

Liu Qingyan was so confused in his mind that he even forgot that Cheng Muzhi was still waiting for him to go back. He paced back and forth in the latrine for a long time, until the servant next to Cheng Muzhi came to look for him, and then he followed back to the inner hall in a daze. .

Cheng Muzhi could no longer see any sadness, as if every time his sadness appeared only for a short time, and then dissipated very quickly.He held a letter in his hand, and his brows were slightly frowned into a small knot. Liu Qingyan walked over, naturally wanting to smooth his eyebrows, but he hesitated to put down his raised hand.

Cheng Muzhi didn't care about his tangled movements, it had always been like this anyway, he just turned the letter in Liu Qingyan's direction a little to let him see clearly.

"A letter from the second prince?" Liu Qingyan was not surprised that Cheng Muxing sent Cheng Muzhi a letter. He was just a little surprised. Usually, when the second prince sent him letters, he always had a smile on his face. He was concerned about his brother's concern for him. He never hides his happiness, this time... why is he so sad?

"What did the second prince say in the letter? Are you so worried?" He didn't read the contents of the letter, waiting for Cheng Muzhi to tell him.Cheng Muzhi shook his head, with a wry smile on his face, "Brother Erhuang gave me a gift of a hair bundle, and also entrusted me with some things in the letter. It is nothing more than to be careful when participating in politics. You have to be tactful and sophisticated in dealing with things... I just suddenly feel that I will have to face too many things that I don't want to face in the future, and I feel a little unhappy..."

Put the letter away. Since Ah Yan didn't read the letter, the sooner he knows about it, the better. Even if he blames himself in the future, it's better than letting him worry day and night from now on. What's more, this matter is currently only the second brother's guess...

I hope so……
