Lu Danqing didn't intend to play tricks at first, but since the other party made the move first, wouldn't he be angered in vain if he didn't take advantage of it?
So after touching Wang Heng's strength, Lu Danqing staggered and took a step back. The soil under his feet became loose due to the dry weather in autumn, and it collapsed instantly, making his body lose his balance.
Lu Danqing's expression showed just the right amount of panic and fear. He stretched out his hand to Wang Heng reflexively, but before the other party could react, he fell into the lake with a muffled sound.
Wang Heng was startled, most of the drunkenness woke up immediately, he squatted down in a panic and stretched out his hand to pull Lu Danqing, but it was too late, the weight of a person would fall into the water within a short second or two. It sinks quickly, and if you relax and hold your breath, you will float up, but for a real landlubber like Lu Danqing - he soon regretted that he made this impulsive decision.
Although Monster Lu will not die a second time, the taste of choking on water is really uncomfortable.
When he first poured into the lake, Lu Danqing couldn't help taking a breath due to the bone-chilling cold temperature. Although he quickly restrained himself, the lake water had already poured into his nasal cavity, and the uncomfortable feeling made him subconsciously He opened his mouth to breathe, and the situation got worse. Lu Monster, who was deprived of oxygen, only felt that the lake water was irritating him, and even his lungs began to ache.
Although it was only a few seconds, Lu Danqing felt as if a century had passed.Just when his consciousness was getting blurred, Lu Danqing felt that he was being pulled out of the water by someone holding his waist. He knew that it was a dark guard. After all, the prince always needs several people to protect him in the dark when he travels.
"Young Master Lu." The man called him in a low voice, holding his palm tightly with a scorching temperature, which was trembling slightly at this moment.
Lu Danqing recognized his voice, this man was Mo Xun, and he was Wen Tingyun's personal secret guard.
On this side, Mo Xun rushed to save people, and naturally there were other hidden guards to inform Wen Tingyun on the other side, so Lu Danqing soon heard a familiar voice coming from far and near to him.He barely opened his eyes, turned over in embarrassment, and spat out a few mouthfuls of water. Every breath made his choked lungs burn with pain.
Mo Xun went to help him at a loss, but as soon as he put his hands on Lu Danqing's waist, Wen Tingyun, who rushed over, pushed him aside without looking at him, and the anxious Prince Rui hugged him into his arms, and then He took off his coat and put it on Lu Danqing.
Mo Xun withdrew his hand, stood up quietly and stood aside, but his eyes were still glued to Lu Danqing, with a bit of worry.
Another hidden guard next to him couldn't help but glanced sideways at him.
Wang Heng took a step forward and wanted to explain: "My lord, my lord, it's not because I—"
Wen Tingyun raised his head to look at him, just this one glance made Wang Heng feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave, his face turned pale in an instant, and his body couldn't help shaking when the cold wind blew, shaking like hanging on a branch in late autumn of dead leaves.
Wen Tingyun hugged Lu Danqing and said coldly, "Go home."
That night, Lu Danqing developed a high fever.
The Frost Bamboo Courtyard where he lived was still brightly lit in the middle of the night, and Wen Tingyun stayed by the bedside every step of the way. The lingering high temperature of the young man made him very worried.
Not to mention him, Monster Lu who was suffering from a fever was also very uncomfortable. His whole body was burning like a fire, but he was sweating non-stop.He glanced at Wen Tingyun who was sitting silently by the bed, and forced a smile: "My lord, go and rest, I'll be fine after a night of sleep."
Wen Tingyun shook his head: "It's okay, I'm not tired."
Lu Danqing whispered: "But... tomorrow morning you have to go to court, you can't do without rest."
"It's okay, I'll go there when the time comes." Wen Tingyun said, touching Lu Danqing's face, "Don't think so much, go to sleep."
Lu Danqing was so uncomfortable that he couldn't sleep, but he closed his eyes obediently.
Another hour passed, and the heat still persisted.
Wen Tingyun was a little anxious, he went to the door and called Mo Xun, took off the jade pendant around his waist and handed it to him, and said: "Go and invite the doctor Wang from the palace, and he said that the king suddenly caught a cold in the middle of the night, and the situation is urgent." , I also hope that Imperial Physician Wang can make a diagnosis in person, and I will thank you very much afterwards.”
Mo Xun answered yes.
The imperial doctors in the palace are highly skilled, but since there is a word '御' on it, it can be seen that not everyone can see it.Wen Tingyun was also dizzy in a hurry, and had no other choice but to make such a bad move.
Physician Wang is good at acupuncture. Lu Danqing endured the needles all night like a hedgehog, and the fever subsided a little.
Not long after, the sky was getting brighter, and Lu Danqing fell asleep drowsily after feeling better. Wen Tingyun heaved a sigh of relief, and belatedly realized that he was also covered in sweat.
However, it was almost time for the morning court, Wen Tingyun hurried back to the room to take a hasty bath, changed into court clothes and rushed to the palace.
After sleeping until noon, Lu Danqing felt weak all over his body, and he was lethargic. After drinking a bowl of dark Chinese medicine, he felt even worse. He had no appetite at all, and he lay on the bed in a daze like a corpse.
Wen Tingyun hurried back and asked Wei Ran who was guarding the door: "How is Danqing?"
"Go back to the prince, the young master is already awake, but he has no energy and doesn't want to eat."
Wen Tingyun couldn't help frowning, and said: "Let the kitchen make some porridge and side dishes, and I'll make some of the pastries that Danqing usually likes to eat. Don't be too sweet."
After giving the order, he opened the door and walked in, only to see Lu Danqing huddled under the quilt weakly.
Wen Tingyun walked over, moved a chair and sat down beside the bed, "Danqing, why don't you eat?"
"...Uncomfortable."
"Eat a little when you're sick," Wen Tingyun said softly, "If you don't eat when you're sick, your body won't be able to take it."
Lu Danqing didn't speak. He was in a bad mood now. If he knew that falling into the water would be so troublesome, he would never have chosen to fall into it.
Wen Tingyun took off his coat and put it aside, lifted the quilt and lay down.
Lu Danqing: "?????"
He wriggled and backed away like a caterpillar: "My lord?"
Wen Tingyun looked at the huge gap between the two of them, like the Chu River and Han Realm, dumbfounded: "What's wrong?"
Lu Danqing puffed up his cheeks: "You can't come over!"
The ancients paid attention to the term "sickness", which is what is called contagion in modern times, especially the powerful princes and nobles, and they don't like to get close to sick people.
Wen Tingyun also followed, pushing Lu Danqing to the corner, and then pulled him into his arms, holding him tightly.
Lu Danqing struggled: "My lord——"
"It's okay, so what if you're over sickness? I like whatever Ah Qing gives you." Wen Tingyun laughed lowly, his voice hoarse.
He had been exhausted for several days because of the affairs of the DPRK and China, and he didn't have a good rest. He didn't sleep all night last night. At this time, his complexion was no better than that of Lu Danqing.
"Danqing."
"Ok?"
"I was by the lake yesterday, why did I fall into the water when I was fine?"
Lu Danqing lowered his eyes, he didn't quite understand why Wen Tingyun suddenly mentioned this, he was obviously still sick.But it is a matter of time to ask, and he has already thought about the answer.
"Yesterday...it was me who fell into the water accidentally because I didn't stand firm, and it has nothing to do with Mr. Wang."
Wen Tingyun didn't speak, Lu Danqing looked a little embarrassed, he stepped back a little, and tried to smile a little easier: "It's my fault, this——"
"Blame you?"
Wen Tingyun interrupted him, he looked at Lu Danqing, his always gentle and clear eyes seemed to be suppressing some emotions, the wind and clouds were so surging that it was incomprehensible, as if the gloom of the mountain rain was about to come.
"Wang Heng pushed you into the water, you want me to blame you?"
Lu Danqing was stunned, and quickly explained: "It's not... the prince, the prince didn't push me, it was me—"
"Danqing."
"Why don't you tell me the truth?"
Wen Tingyun said word by word, "Lu Danqing, what are you afraid of? Are you afraid that I won't believe what you say, that you will frame me, or that I will protect Wang Heng even though I believe you?"
Lu Danqing choked for breath, he wanted to turn his head and look away uncomfortably, but Wen Tingyun pinched his chin and forced him to look at him.
"Danqing...do you not believe me?"
Because he didn't believe it, he simply took the matter on himself and admitted his mistake first, so as not to hurt his heart because of his eccentricity.
Lu Danqing pursed his lips, he shook off Wen Tingyun's hand, laughed at himself, and said sarcastically, "My lord, it is precisely because of this face that Danqing entered Prince Rui's residence, what do you want me to believe?"
Wen Tingyun didn't expect that because of this incident, he opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know where to start.Originally, I was afraid that the child would think too much, so I didn't tell him so much. After all, Lu Danqing's entry into the mansion was indeed for an impure purpose at the beginning. I didn't expect——
Thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling a little annoyed, blaming those sleazy servants and that Wang Heng, otherwise how would Lu Danqing know about those old sesame seeds and rotten grains.
"Danqing, listen to my explanation—"
Wen Tingyun was worried, he was afraid that the misunderstanding would deepen, so he quickly told everything about Wang Heng.Lu Danqing listened quietly, without expressing anything, just nodded at the end to show he understood.
His calm reaction gave Wen Tingyun a chill. In fact, if it wasn't for this incident, he wouldn't know that he was like this in Lu Danqing's heart, and he wouldn't know that Lu Danqing thought he was a substitute in his heart. exist.
Wen Tingyun couldn't help but feel distressed when he thought of how the boy who usually laughed and feasted on him was not knowing how he felt when he was alone behind his back.
"Danqing," he hugged Lu Danqing tightly, the other party's silence made him flustered, and even his voice trembled, "Don't be like this...don't say anything, Danqing, talk to me."
Lu Danqing tilted his head, what did Wen Tingyun want him to say?
Monster Lu didn't say anything after thinking for a long time, so he said dryly: "I... I'm a little tired, so we can talk about it another day if we have anything to do."
In this way, this page was barely turned over - of course, for Lu Danqing, as for Wen Tingyun... Lu Monster can only say that the prince has become more and more clingy, and now even his official duties have to be moved to Lu Danqing works in the courtyard, and he is almost inseparable from him except that he has to go out. Even passionate love is not such a hot method.
After recuperating for two or three days, Monster Lu recovered some vitality. Taking advantage of the bright sun in the morning and Wen Tingyun was out busy, he asked Wei Ran to move a deck chair to the yard to doze off and bask in the sun.
In a daze, Lu Danqing felt a hand on his forehead. He thought it was Wen Tingyun who came back, so he subconsciously raised his head and rubbed his head, then grabbed that hand and muttered wearily: "My lord , I'm much better now, you don't have to-"
He opened his eyes while talking, only to find that the person who came was not Wen Tingyun, but Wen Tingyu who hadn't seen him for a long time.
Lu Danqing seemed to be taken aback, quickly let go of his hands and sat up straight, put down his stretched legs, smiled at Wen Tingyu with some embarrassment, and stammered an apology: "Yes, yes, yes Sorry, I, I thought it was..."
Wen Tingyu tilted his head: "Thought it was your prince who came back?"
"..."
Lu Danqing blushed slightly, turned her head away and said nothing.
Wen Tingyu smiled, with no emotion in his dark eyes, he sat down on the other half of the recliner, next to Lu Danqing.
"I heard that you were pushed into the water?"
Lu Danqing turned to look at him: "It's not that I pushed... It's just that I didn't stand firmly, and Mr. Wang happened to move a little too much, it's nothing."
Wen Tingyu chuckled: "Oh, you mean, Wang Heng 'accidentally' touched you, and then 'accidentally' bumped you into the lake?"
Lu Danqing snorted and laughed: "Why are you so angry? It was me who fell into the water and not you. Why are you so angry?"
His body has not yet healed, and his complexion is still a little pale, making the already fair complexion even whiter and almost transparent under the sun, as if it will disappear in the next moment.Wen Tingyu's heart tightened, and he subconsciously held Lu Danqing's hand.
He is the emperor, and every movement in the palace is under his control, not to mention the imperial doctor from the imperial hospital leaving the palace late at night.Even though Wen Tingyun has the right way, the people he puts in Prince Rui's residence cannot be too close to the inner circle, but there is always some basic information.
That night after Imperial Physician Wang returned to the palace, Wen Tingyu had someone take him over for questioning, and it didn't take much effort to find out what happened.
Wen Tingyu knew better than anyone how much Lu Danqing had suffered.
He suppressed the anger in his heart, and asked in a low voice: "Is it better? Is there any other discomfort?" While asking, he turned his head to look at him, looking carefully, lest he miss something.
"It's much better." Lu Danqing said, "It's just a fever, nothing serious."
"It's nothing serious?!" Wen Tingyu couldn't help raising his voice, "Fengchi is never a trivial matter, do you know that you almost walked through the door of hell?!"
"Ah..." Lu Danqing stared at him blankly, as if he didn't understand why he suddenly broke out, "Anyway... anyway, it's okay now..."
Wen Tingyu almost laughed angrily, "I hear you like this, do you intend to let this matter go like this?"
"Prince Wang has come to apologize." Lu Danqing said, and Wen Tingyun asked someone to 'invite' over like a prisoner.
Wen Tingyu sneered: "Then? Is this the end?"
Lu Danqing was stunned for a moment: "No, what else do I have to do?" Do I have to lose money?But he is not short of the money; if he sues the government, he has already apologized - of course, he does not lack this apology, although it is just a formality, but it is enough for Lu Danqing to see clearly where he is in Wen Tingyun .
It was for this purpose that he fell into the water on purpose. Now that the mission was accomplished, there was nothing more to entangle.
Wen Tingyu was very angry, he didn't know that Lu Danqing was so wronged by staying in the palace.
If this matter is left to him, he has to abolish Wang Heng's title and make him a slave, and then let all the people in the palace kneel and kowtow to Lu Danqing, and then kneel for three days and three nights to repent.
"Hey..." Lu Danqing poked him, "Don't be angry, I'm not angry, what are you doing?"
Wen Tingyu looked at him coldly: "Yes, you like Wen Tingyun so you are willing to bear it, but I don't like him, so I can't even get angry now?" There was a sour taste in these words that even he didn't expect.
Lu Danqing: "..."
"You...are you jealous?" He looked at Wen Tingyu carefully, "Don't, don't do this... We are friends, and you are also very important."
Wen Tingyu didn't speak, the scene of chatting side by side seemed to have appeared in his dreams, he didn't often have dreams about Lu Danqing, so every rare dream was like honey, making the emperor wake up There is a feeling of emptiness in my heart.
"Lu Danqing," he said, turning his head to look at Lu Danqing, "if... I say I am the emperor, would you like to come with me?"
Lu Danqing blinked his eyes and replied with a smile: "Okay, if you are the emperor, you have to take me into the palace to have a good time. I haven't been to the palace yet." As if thinking it was a joke, his answer He was very careless, looking up at the chirping sparrows in the tree boredly, and his tone was also teasing.
Wen Tingyu didn't speak, the courtyard was so quiet that there was only the rustling of leaves rubbing against each other. Lu Danqing turned to look at him in confusion, but Wen Tingyu's serious and focused expression made him stunned for a moment.
Then, as if realizing something, he opened his eyes wide in astonishment, stood up from the chair in shock, and took a few steps back in a panic.
"Danqing—"
Wen Tingyu reached out to pull him, but Lu Danqing sideways avoided him.
Wen and Wen are homophonic, and the king is Jun. Isn't this what the emperor means?
"Danqing."
Wen Tingyu was a little annoyed, he pulled Lu Danqing's wrist forcefully, "You can be with Wen Tingyun, why can't you be friends with me?"
"It's different!" Lu Danqing struggled to get rid of him, but Wen Tingyu clasped him tightly, and he asked in a deep voice, "Did Wen Tingyun tell you something?"
"No, the lord has never told me about the matter of the emperor."
"Then what are you afraid of me doing?"
"I..." Lu Danqing was a little embarrassed, "This, this is too sudden, I don't know... You never said it before, I thought you were an ordinary person... I..."
"I'm just an ordinary person," Wen Tingyu said, "you can call me by my name——I'm Wen Tingyu, or whatever you want. Danqing, I've been emperor for too long. In front of you I just want to be a normal person."
"You...well, Wen Tingyu, let go first." He shook his hand and had to compromise first.
"Does it hurt you?"
Wen Tingyu relaxed a little, seeing the red mark on the boy's wrist, he couldn't help feeling a little annoyed.
"It's okay, it doesn't hurt." Lu Danqing retracted his hand and shook it, looking around, "You came in secretly? Now think about it, every time you come, there is no servant in the yard."
"Probably." Wen Tingyu said indifferently, "I don't want Wen Tingyun to know."
"Why? Aren't you brothers?"
"Our relationship is not that good." Wen Tingyu said lightly, he didn't want to talk about Wen Tingyun any more, and instead said, "Danqing, just now you said you wanted to go to the palace with me, don't go back on your word."
"Hmm..." Lu Danqing was a little hesitant, and he pretended to smile relaxedly, "It's another day, when the prince is free, I will go to the palace with him to find you."
Wen Tingyu couldn't help but his expression darkened, and suddenly realized that the identity of the emperor had opened up the distance between the two of them, making Lu Danqing a lot more unfamiliar and cautious towards him.
However, this status has advantages and disadvantages.At the very least, facing Wen Tingyun, he can overwhelm him no matter what.
"There's no need to change the day, it's today." Wen Tingyu said, "It happens that you haven't fully recovered from your illness, so let the imperial doctor take a look. There are many medicinal materials in the palace, and they can be used."
"It still doesn't work, my lord...Zerong will be worried if he doesn't see me when he comes back."
Lu Danqing declined. He really didn't want to go into the palace. The emperor was surrounded by capable people and strangers. In case anyone with a bit of morality would show him something wrong. Wouldn't the foreshadowing be in vain?
But Wen Tingyu insisted: "It's okay, I'll ask someone to bring him a message."
There was a stalemate for a while, Lu Danqing stubbornly refused to agree, Wen Tingyu was afraid of hurting the relationship between the two of them, so he didn't want to be too tough on him, so he had to give in: "...well, if you don't want to go, then don't go I'll see you again some other day."
Lu Danqing heaved a sigh of relief and nodded repeatedly.
So the emperor was unhappy again: "You expect me to leave so much?"
Lu Danqing blinked, and retorted confidently: "No, I just think it's not good for you to waste too much time with me, not to mention others, so many concubines in the harem are looking forward to you going to sit there; and Ze Rong has been very busy with the matters in the court these days, and you should have a lot of things. I am concerned about you, don't you know what to do?"
These irrational words made Wen Tingyu laugh, and the two of them seemed to be in the past again, and he put on a submissive little daughter-in-law look: "Yes, yes, yes, I was wrong, and it's all my fault."
Lu Danqing squinted his eyes and smiled: "It is a virtue to know a mistake and correct it, which is worthy of praise."
The sly smile like a small animal made Wen Tingyu's heart soften, and he pushed forward: "No, I don't want to praise, I want to reward."
"What reward?"
"You want to come into the palace with me," he said, as if he had thought of something, the curve of his lips narrowed slightly, and gradually merged with his slightly cold eyes into the lofty arrogance and majesty that an emperor should have overlooking everything, "One day...Danqing, one day, you will enter the palace with me." Wen Tingyu's voice was low but firm.
——Just like in a dream, only the two of them stay together, and no one else disturbs them.
Going back to this topic again, the heartbroken Lu Danqing thought about it and talked about it perfunctorily with another day and another day, without realizing the deep meaning of the emperor's words.
So after touching Wang Heng's strength, Lu Danqing staggered and took a step back. The soil under his feet became loose due to the dry weather in autumn, and it collapsed instantly, making his body lose his balance.
Lu Danqing's expression showed just the right amount of panic and fear. He stretched out his hand to Wang Heng reflexively, but before the other party could react, he fell into the lake with a muffled sound.
Wang Heng was startled, most of the drunkenness woke up immediately, he squatted down in a panic and stretched out his hand to pull Lu Danqing, but it was too late, the weight of a person would fall into the water within a short second or two. It sinks quickly, and if you relax and hold your breath, you will float up, but for a real landlubber like Lu Danqing - he soon regretted that he made this impulsive decision.
Although Monster Lu will not die a second time, the taste of choking on water is really uncomfortable.
When he first poured into the lake, Lu Danqing couldn't help taking a breath due to the bone-chilling cold temperature. Although he quickly restrained himself, the lake water had already poured into his nasal cavity, and the uncomfortable feeling made him subconsciously He opened his mouth to breathe, and the situation got worse.

He knew that it was a dark guard. After all, the prince always needs several people to protect him in the dark when he travels.
"Young Master Lu." The man called him in a low voice, holding his palm tightly with a scorching temperature, which was trembling slightly at this moment.

Mo Xun withdrew his hand, stood up quietly and stood aside, but his eyes were still glued to Lu Danqing, with a bit of worry.
Another hidden guard next to him couldn't help but glanced sideways at him.
Wang Heng took a step forward and wanted to explain: "My lord, my lord, it's not because I—"
Wen Tingyun raised his head to look at him, just this one glance made Wang Heng feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave, his face turned pale in an instant, and his body couldn't help shaking when the cold wind blew, shaking like hanging on a branch in late autumn of dead leaves.
Wen Tingyun hugged Lu Danqing and said coldly, "Go home."
That night, Lu Danqing developed a high fever.
The Frost Bamboo Courtyard where he lived was still brightly lit in the middle of the night, and Wen Tingyun stayed by the bedside every step of the way. The lingering high temperature of the young man made him very worried.
Not to mention him, Monster Lu who was suffering from a fever was also very uncomfortable. His whole body was burning like a fire, but he was sweating non-stop.He glanced at Wen Tingyun who was sitting silently by the bed, and forced a smile: "My lord, go and rest, I'll be fine after a night of sleep."
Wen Tingyun shook his head: "It's okay, I'm not tired."
Lu Danqing whispered: "But... tomorrow morning you have to go to court, you can't do without rest."
"It's okay, I'll go there when the time comes." Wen Tingyun said, touching Lu Danqing's face, "Don't think so much, go to sleep."
Lu Danqing was so uncomfortable that he couldn't sleep, but he closed his eyes obediently.
Another hour passed, and the heat still persisted.
Wen Tingyun was a little anxious, he went to the door and called Mo Xun, took off the jade pendant around his waist and handed it to him, and said: "Go and invite the doctor Wang from the palace, and he said that the king suddenly caught a cold in the middle of the night, and the situation is urgent." , I also hope that Imperial Physician Wang can make a diagnosis in person, and I will thank you very much afterwards.”

His calm reaction gave Wen Tingyun a chill. In fact, if it wasn't for this incident, he wouldn't know that he was like this in Lu Danqing's heart, and he wouldn't know that Lu Danqing thought he was a substitute in his heart. exist.
Wen Tingyun couldn't help but feel distressed when he thought of how the boy who usually laughed and feasted on him was not knowing how he felt when he was alone behind his back.
"Danqing," he hugged Lu Danqing tightly, the other party's silence made him flustered, and even his voice trembled, "Don't be like this...don't say anything, Danqing, talk to me."
Lu Danqing tilted his head, what did Wen Tingyun want him to say?
Monster Lu didn't say anything after thinking for a long time, so he said dryly: "I... I'm a little tired, so we can talk about it another day if we have anything to do."
In this way, this page was barely turned over - of course, for Lu Danqing, as for Wen Tingyun... Lu Monster can only say that the prince has become more and more clingy, and now even his official duties have to be moved to Lu Danqing works in the courtyard, and he is almost inseparable from him except that he has to go out. Even passionate love is not such a hot method.
After recuperating for two or three days, Monster Lu recovered some vitality. Taking advantage of the bright sun in the morning and Wen Tingyun was out busy, he asked Wei Ran to move a deck chair to the yard to doze off and bask in the sun.
In a daze, Lu Danqing felt a hand on his forehead. He thought it was Wen Tingyun who came back, so he subconsciously raised his head and rubbed his head, then grabbed that hand and muttered wearily: "My lord , I'm much better now, you don't have to-"
He opened his eyes while talking, only to find that the person who came was not Wen Tingyun, but Wen Tingyu who hadn't seen him for a long time.
Lu Danqing seemed to be taken aback, quickly let go of his hands and sat up straight, put down his stretched legs, smiled at Wen Tingyu with some embarrassment, and stammered an apology: "Yes, yes, yes Sorry, I, I thought it was..."
Wen Tingyu tilted his head: "Thought it was your prince who came back?"
"..."
Lu Danqing blushed slightly, turned her head away and said nothing.
Wen Tingyu smiled, with no emotion in his dark eyes, he sat down on the other half of the recliner, next to Lu Danqing.
"I heard that you were pushed into the water?"
Lu Danqing turned to look at him: "It's not that I pushed... It's just that I didn't stand firmly, and Mr. Wang happened to move a little too much, it's nothing."
Wen Tingyu chuckled: "Oh, you mean, Wang Heng 'accidentally' touched you, and then 'accidentally' bumped you into the lake?"
Lu Danqing snorted and laughed: "Why are you so angry? It was me who fell into the water and not you. Why are you so angry?"
His body has not yet healed, and his complexion is still a little pale, making the already fair complexion even whiter and almost transparent under the sun, as if it will disappear in the next moment.Wen Tingyu's heart tightened, and he subconsciously held Lu Danqing's hand.
He is the emperor, and every movement in the palace is under his control, not to mention the imperial doctor from the imperial hospital leaving the palace late at night.Even though Wen Tingyun has the right way, the people he puts in Prince Rui's residence cannot be too close to the inner circle, but there is always some basic information.
That night after Imperial Physician Wang returned to the palace, Wen Tingyu had someone take him over for questioning, and it didn't take much effort to find out what happened.
Wen Tingyu knew better than anyone how much Lu Danqing had suffered.
He suppressed the anger in his heart, and asked in a low voice: "Is it better? Is there any other discomfort?" While asking, he turned his head to look at him, looking carefully, lest he miss something.
"It's much better." Lu Danqing said, "It's just a fever, nothing serious."
"It's nothing serious?!" Wen Tingyu couldn't help raising his voice, "Fengchi is never a trivial matter, do you know that you almost walked through the door of hell?!"
"Ah..." Lu Danqing stared at him blankly, as if he didn't understand why he suddenly broke out, "Anyway... anyway, it's okay now..."
Wen Tingyu almost laughed angrily, "I hear you like this, do you intend to let this matter go like this?"
"Prince Wang has come to apologize." Lu Danqing said, and Wen Tingyun asked someone to 'invite' over like a prisoner.
Wen Tingyu sneered: "Then? Is this the end?"
Lu Danqing was stunned for a moment: "No, what else do I have to do?" Do I have to lose money?But he is not short of the money; if he sues the government, he has already apologized - of course, he does not lack this apology, although it is just a formality, but it is enough for Lu Danqing to see clearly where he is in Wen Tingyun .
It was for this purpose that he fell into the water on purpose. Now that the mission was accomplished, there was nothing more to entangle.
Wen Tingyu was very angry, he didn't know that Lu Danqing was so wronged by staying in the palace.
If this matter is left to him, he has to abolish Wang Heng's title and make him a slave, and then let all the people in the palace kneel and kowtow to Lu Danqing, and then kneel for three days and three nights to repent.
"Hey..." Lu Danqing poked him, "Don't be angry, I'm not angry, what are you doing?"
Wen Tingyu looked at him coldly: "Yes, you like Wen Tingyun so you are willing to bear it, but I don't like him, so I can't even get angry now?" There was a sour taste in these words that even he didn't expect.
Lu Danqing: "..."
"You...are you jealous?" He looked at Wen Tingyu carefully, "Don't, don't do this... We are friends, and you are also very important."
Wen Tingyu didn't speak, the scene of chatting side by side seemed to have appeared in his dreams, he didn't often have dreams about Lu Danqing, so every rare dream was like honey, making the emperor wake up There is a feeling of emptiness in my heart.
"Lu Danqing," he said, turning his head to look at Lu Danqing, "if... I say I am the emperor, would you like to come with me?"
Lu Danqing blinked his eyes and replied with a smile: "Okay, if you are the emperor, you have to take me into the palace to have a good time. I haven't been to the palace yet." As if thinking it was a joke, his answer He was very careless, looking up at the chirping sparrows in the tree boredly, and his tone was also teasing.
Wen Tingyu didn't speak, the courtyard was so quiet that there was only the rustling of leaves rubbing against each other. Lu Danqing turned to look at him in confusion, but Wen Tingyu's serious and focused expression made him stunned for a moment.
Then, as if realizing something, he opened his eyes wide in astonishment, stood up from the chair in shock, and took a few steps back in a panic.
"Danqing—"
Wen Tingyu reached out to pull him, but Lu Danqing sideways avoided him.
Wen and Wen are homophonic, and the king is Jun. Isn't this what the emperor means?
"Danqing."
Wen Tingyu was a little annoyed, he pulled Lu Danqing's wrist forcefully, "You can be with Wen Tingyun, why can't you be friends with me?"
"It's different!" Lu Danqing struggled to get rid of him, but Wen Tingyu clasped him tightly, and he asked in a deep voice, "Did Wen Tingyun tell you something?"
"No, the lord has never told me about the matter of the emperor."
"Then what are you afraid of me doing?"
"I..." Lu Danqing was a little embarrassed, "This, this is too sudden, I don't know... You never said it before, I thought you were an ordinary person... I..."
"I'm just an ordinary person," Wen Tingyu said, "you can call me by my name——I'm Wen Tingyu, or whatever you want. Danqing, I've been emperor for too long. In front of you I just want to be a normal person."
"You...well, Wen Tingyu, let go first." He shook his hand and had to compromise first.
"Does it hurt you?"
Wen Tingyu relaxed a little, seeing the red mark on the boy's wrist, he couldn't help feeling a little annoyed.
"It's okay, it doesn't hurt." Lu Danqing retracted his hand and shook it, looking around, "You came in secretly? Now think about it, every time you come, there is no servant in the yard."
"Probably." Wen Tingyu said indifferently, "I don't want Wen Tingyun to know."
"Why? Aren't you brothers?"
"Our relationship is not that good." Wen Tingyu said lightly, he didn't want to talk about Wen Tingyun any more, and instead said, "Danqing, just now you said you wanted to go to the palace with me, don't go back on your word."
"Hmm..." Lu Danqing was a little hesitant, and he pretended to smile relaxedly, "It's another day, when the prince is free, I will go to the palace with him to find you."
Wen Tingyu couldn't help but his expression darkened, and suddenly realized that the identity of the emperor had opened up the distance between the two of them, making Lu Danqing a lot more unfamiliar and cautious towards him.
However, this status has advantages and disadvantages.At the very least, facing Wen Tingyun, he can overwhelm him no matter what.
"There's no need to change the day, it's today." Wen Tingyu said, "It happens that you haven't fully recovered from your illness, so let the imperial doctor take a look. There are many medicinal materials in the palace, and they can be used."
"It still doesn't work, my lord...Zerong will be worried if he doesn't see me when he comes back."
Lu Danqing declined. He really didn't want to go into the palace. The emperor was surrounded by capable people and strangers. In case anyone with a bit of morality would show him something wrong. Wouldn't the foreshadowing be in vain?
But Wen Tingyu insisted: "It's okay, I'll ask someone to bring him a message."
There was a stalemate for a while, Lu Danqing stubbornly refused to agree, Wen Tingyu was afraid of hurting the relationship between the two of them, so he didn't want to be too tough on him, so he had to give in: "...well, if you don't want to go, then don't go I'll see you again some other day."
Lu Danqing heaved a sigh of relief and nodded repeatedly.
So the emperor was unhappy again: "You expect me to leave so much?"
Lu Danqing blinked, and retorted confidently: "No, I just think it's not good for you to waste too much time with me, not to mention others, so many concubines in the harem are looking forward to you going to sit there; and Ze Rong has been very busy with the matters in the court these days, and you should have a lot of things. I am concerned about you, don't you know what to do?"
These irrational words made Wen Tingyu laugh, and the two of them seemed to be in the past again, and he put on a submissive little daughter-in-law look: "Yes, yes, yes, I was wrong, and it's all my fault."
Lu Danqing squinted his eyes and smiled: "It is a virtue to know a mistake and correct it, which is worthy of praise."
The sly smile like a small animal made Wen Tingyu's heart soften, and he pushed forward: "No, I don't want to praise, I want to reward."
"What reward?"
"You want to come into the palace with me," he said, as if he had thought of something, the curve of his lips narrowed slightly, and gradually merged with his slightly cold eyes into the lofty arrogance and majesty that an emperor should have overlooking everything, "One day...Danqing, one day, you will enter the palace with me." Wen Tingyu's voice was low but firm.
——Just like in a dream, only the two of them stay together, and no one else disturbs them.
Going back to this topic again, the heartbroken Lu Danqing thought about it and talked about it perfunctorily with another day and another day, without realizing the deep meaning of the emperor's words.
