Not long after midnight, the corner of the sky above the imperial city was still dotted with a few cold stars, and Lu Zhi got up without delay.

The servant guarding the outside room heard the commotion inside, immediately knocked on the door lightly, and asked respectfully in a low voice: "Your Highness, are you going to get up?"

Lu Zhi rubbed his brows, hummed, and several court ladies carrying clothes and a set of toiletries filed in.

The little eunuch lit the candles gradually from the outside to the inside, and within a few breaths, the bedroom accompanied by Lu Zhi woke up from a deep sleep.

A piece of fireworks stirred, warming people.

Baozhu first arranged the shoes, which had been baked on the golden beast incense burner overnight, on the carved nanmu wooden bench, and then stretched out her hand to tie up the soft tent at the head of the land bed.

After the two little girls put on the shoes for him, Lu Zhi was completely awake. He stood on the ground and asked someone to help him get dressed, and asked Baozhu who was half kneeling to arrange his clothes: "Did Zirong sleep well last night?" ? No more fever?"

Baozhu quickly knelt down completely, and said: "Your Highness, the young master slept very well. I just went to see it before I came, and I won't wake up for a while. I guess it will be time. I went in twice at night, and there is no fever. The quilt is also tightly covered."

Lu Zhi nodded, and explained: "He woke up and wanted someone, so he brought him to the study."

After speaking, he went to the outside room where breakfast was served.

Yan Yu'an was by his side, and when Lu Zhi was lost in thought, he would pick up two chopsticks for him.Lu Zhi always got up early, so he didn't have much appetite at this time, so he had light breakfast.If the amount is further reduced, then they really deserve death for being slaves.

Although Lu Zhi said he was sick because the two parties were cooperating with the emperor to play a show, but his complexion these days is indeed not very good-looking.

Seeing that he was about to get up without moving his chopsticks, Yan Yu'an couldn't help persuading him: "Your Highness...Your Highness has been getting less progressive recently. People say that you need to wear clothes in spring and autumn, but they don't know that the same is true in diet. Spring will stabilize your body. , This year has been a comfortable one, Your Highness."

Lu Zhi drank half a cup of tea, got up and said, "It's okay, let's put it in Liuchunting at noon."

Yan Yu'an had no choice but to bend down and agree, and followed Lu Zhi closely to the study.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, there was a banquet in the palace.

After it was over, the First Prince made a special trip to Jingfu Hall and told Lu Zhi that although he said he was ill and would not go to the Xinxin Academy, he must not let his writing practice be left behind.

Lu Zhi remembered that when Lu Lin left, he showed off his elder brother's airs and said, "On my aunt's birthday, my father will definitely let you out of the palace. When the time comes, I will come to this palace to test you. "

Lu Zhi repeatedly replied that he knew, and sent him all the way to the gate of Jingfu Hall.

It was freezing cold, Lu Lin did not bring the princess with him when he entered the palace, only a group of servants and an exquisite soft sedan that should not appear in the palace.

When the first empress left, he and the elder prince Lu Lin's caregiver and maid were lazy day by day.

One day in the summer when the eldest prince was eight years old, no one followed him, so he ran to the imperial garden to climb a tree by himself.Later, the night owl on the tree was startled and fell down. No matter how many doctors diagnosed and treated her, there was something wrong with her left leg.Even if you walk slowly, you can see the limp.

Not long after Yuan Empress left, such a thing happened to the son-in-law.The emperor probably felt a little guilty, and gave the eldest prince a special gift to ride a sedan chair in the palace from now on.

The eldest prince also remembers clearly, and never fails once.As long as you go out, you will be followed by a soft sedan chair, and you will not be afraid of embarrassing the emperor at all.

How can I put these things into perspective, the two children suffered a lot, and they didn't even have the reliance to find out whether it was a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, so they had to suffer.

Lu Zhi frowned slightly, and it was easy to recall the past.

He thought of Lu Lin who limped and took him through the temples of the Xinxinyuan, slept with him in the dormitory, and limped with him through so many springs, summers, autumns and winters.I also remembered the night when Lu Lin's marriage was settled, she was a concubine daughter raised by a declining rich family under the name of his first wife, the two brothers had a candle night drink, Lu Lin slightly lowered his head, his eyes were cold, and he was silent for the middle of the night, In the end, I only said to Lu Zhi: "We brothers, we only look at you", and my heart began to feel cold again.

That day when he watched one of the servants put a cloak on Lu Lin, and then helped him into the soft sedan chair, the carriages and horses gradually drifted away, and no one could be seen, so Yan Yu'an called him softly: "Your Highness..."

Lu Lin's exhortation that day, Lu Zhi himself also saved.From then on, I really followed the time of the Taboo Academy every day, entering and exiting, and even stricter with myself than when I was in the Taboo Academy.

Yesterday, he was busy coaxing the coquettish little flower demon, and he has been lazy for a whole day, Lu Zhi dare not be lazy anymore.When they arrived at the study room, they dismissed all the young eunuchs, leaving only Yan Yu'an who had almost reduced his sense of existence to zero, waiting in the corner.

Lu Zhi is actually a bit conservative and stubborn.

For example, when I was very young, the teacher of the Faxin College once said: It is best to stand while reading, and you can avoid impetuousness and laziness.

But it is impossible for him to ask the prince like that, and it is impossible for the princes of the Taboo Academy to stand and listen, those words were just casually said.

But Lu Zhipian just listened to this sentence.Since then, Lu Zhi seldom sat in his own study.

Whether it is reading a book, copying a post, or painting with a fine brushwork, I stand in front of the desk.

Lu Zhi always believes that when doing something, one should act like one is doing it.Now that you have done it, you must concentrate on it and listen to it to get results.

This stop lasted all morning, and the sun was high at noon, and Lu Zhi still had half a page of red ink in his hand.Yan Yu'an bravely leaned forward again, poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to him, with his head drooping, he said, "Your Highness, drink some water to moisten your throat."

"Yeah." Lu Zhi's eyes were still on the paper, and he felt really thirsty when he said it. He put down his pen, took the teacup and drank all the tea, and asked, "What time is it?"

"Return to Your Highness, it's just after noon."

At noon... Lu Zhi wondered, "The little flower demon can sleep for so long?"

But just thinking about it, after standing for two hours, Lu Zhi also felt a little tired.He walked around the desk for a few steps before he felt that his legs were not so tight.

Yan Yu'an saw that Lu Zhi's face was bright, and it was a good time to persuade him, so he bent his waist even more, and said respectfully: "Your Highness, the old slave deserves death, so I shouldn't say a word. It is important to study, but you are a golden fetus Your body, you must take care of yourself."

Hearing this, Lu Zhi glanced at Yan Yu'an while walking, smiled, and said, "This is not enough to kill ten thousand people. What am I going to do to you? I am trembling when I say a word."

Yan Yu'an still said: "The slave deserves death."

Lu Zhi waved his hand and said, "Even if you don't go to the Taboo Academy, it won't last long."

Over the past few years, there have been more and more princes in the Taboo Academy, and the little prince has not yet learned to eat by himself, so he is sent here to study.

The concubines in the harem don't know how to discipline their own sons, but they are more proficient in how to show themselves to the emperor.

The prince is in the East Palace, and there is a special tutor to give lectures for him.

Both the eldest prince and the third prince have left the palace to build a mansion, and the Taboo Academy is the largest land quality.Except for the fifth and sixth princes who stare at him like enemies, the rest are little hairy kids who haven't grown their teeth yet. The emperor knows this situation but keeps silent, and he is also reluctant to let go of his marriage to Lu Zhi dissatisfaction.

Lu Zhi was really upset, so he called the imperial doctor a few times years ago with great fanfare and did not avoid people at all, and even the queen mother sent a grandma to come over to ask about illnesses.

The queen mother moved, and the emperor couldn't pretend to be ignorant.It's just that His Majesty the Emperor is arrogant, caring about his prince, he also called people to the imperial study to care.

It's so cold, the place where the prince lives is so far away from the imperial study, and he can't sit in a sedan chair in the palace, even if he is not sick, running back and forth is not enough.

But it is a gift after all.After the eunuch came to pass the message, all the people in the Jingfu Palace were beaming, as if they had received the imperial decree, they were all elated.

Even Baozhu was delighted, and was smiling when he waited for Lu Zhi to change his clothes. He got new clothes that were all naked, and before going out, he took out Lu Zhi's dark crane pattern cloak that he hadn't worn for a long time.

That was the material left by the former empress for Lu Zhi.Back then, she made one for the eldest prince, but she couldn't wait for Lu Zhi to grow up, and she was filled with guilt. In the end, there were only a few pieces of clothing material that could really leave Lu Zhi in her thoughts.

Lu Zhi didn't have the good intention to refute Baozhu, so he went there in a spirited manner.

Fortunately, he was well dressed, because even if the emperor asked about illness, he didn't give Lu Zhi all the time.When he arrived, the sixth prince, Lu Sheng, had already arrived. Lu Zhi was waiting outside for the eunuch to go in to deliver a message. He heard a happy conversation inside, and the emperor even laughed a few times.

It was also rare to see him with a happy face, and asked a few words about his illness and what medicine he took with a pleasant face.After Lu Zhi answered them one by one, the emperor said to Lu Sheng: "Then, I will leave it to you to handle the errands of the House of Internal Affairs. You have also seen that the eldest brother and the third eldest brother are outside the palace, and your fourth brother may be weak in winter." .This matter is in your own hands, so hold on tightly and don’t get out of the basket.”

Lu Sheng immediately knelt down straight and straight, and said: "Father, please rest assured, this son will definitely do his best, and will not disappoint Father."

Lu Zhi stood on the spot with a full face and relaxed, just like the emperor, smiling at Lu Sheng who was kneeling on the ground expressing his determination. It was really a scene of brothers and friends respecting each other.

Yan Yu'an only got the news this morning about what happened in the imperial study room yesterday.

The emperor gave Lu Zhi such an embarrassment face to face, although Lu Zhi didn't bring out the unpleasantness last night, today he also served more carefully, for fear of poking a hornet's nest.

Now that Lu Zhi mentioned this matter himself, Yan Yu'an couldn't help but said harshly: "Duo's Xijia's mother's family is the emperor merchant for three generations, so what if you think you will be an official later? The bones are not washed. It's so clean and stinky, even with her son, she dares to go past His Highness!"

Lu Zhi was noncommittal, but Yan Yu'an was still angry, probably because he was old and talked a lot.Seeing that Lu Zhi didn't look unhappy, he said again: "Your Highness... In the final analysis, the emperor's current behavior is just because he is angry with you for procrastinating and refusing to get married. Look at the old woman, the eldest daughter of Princess Gu Lun's family is really honorable enough, if it is delayed, can there be a better marriage than this?"

"I don't know the depth of the slave." Lu Zhi said: "You can also talk about the eldest princess's daughter? How many heads do you have?"

It was only then that Yan Yu'an realized that he had made a slip of the tongue, and knew that Lu Zhi was reminding him, so he quickly knelt down to apologize.

Lu Zhi said: "Forget it, I don't care about you. You don't have to hold your breath about Lu Sheng's matter. Although he and the prince are both from Xijia, but now the prince is still curled up in the East Palace, he has a job to do. You only see me in your eyes, and you think that he passed me, but it's a pity that no one else is needed, no matter whether this thing can be done or not, the crown prince and Xijia will ask him one, two, three."

Yan Yu'an thought about it and understood.Emperor, the sixth prince is holding back the crown prince.

But is it too cruel?A brother from the same mother... hey.

Yan Yu'an lowered his eyes, and said: "Your Highness is always thoughtful, and the slave is just worrying about it. Should we pass on lunch?"

Lu Zhi said: "Well, let's go and see Zirong. The sun is shining on the buttocks, so I can't afford it."

Unexpectedly, as soon as he left the courtyard door of the study, he saw a little girl that Baozhu usually carried sneakily poked her head in.

Yan Yu'an immediately called her in with a cold voice, and said, "You are so sneaky, you have no rules? What's the matter?!"

The little girl was terrified, she knelt on the ground and repeatedly apologized, shedding tears all over her face.

Yan Yu'an didn't want to humiliate her servants in front of Lu Zhi, seeing her lose her composure, she felt angry and hated, so she just asked: "What exactly did your aunt want you to say back and forth, what did you say?"

The little girl was trembling, and finally understood what she said.

Liu Chunting's young master woke up at Maoshi, and was looking for Lu Zhi before he got dressed.At that time, Lu Zhi came to the study for a while, Baozhu persuaded him, saying that he would look for Lu Zhi after drinking the medicine.

Later, Lu Zhi stayed in the study, and Yan Yu'an never came out, and neither water nor snacks were needed.

Baozhu only said that His Highness has something important to do, and she dared not reply, for fear of missing Lu Zhi's important business.

But Zirong is not so easy to fool.He only said what he said or listened to when he was in front of Lu Zhi, and soon realized that Bao Zhu was just delaying, and didn't really take him to find Lu Zhi "later".

But the house was full of people blocking him, and no matter how mischievous he was, he couldn't get out of Liu Chunting's courtyard, so...

"What's the matter?!"

Lu Zhi's face became more and more ugly, Yan Yu'an was furious, resisted the urge to kick the little girl over, and asked sharply.

"The young master couldn't get out, so he went back to the house and went to bed, and he didn't want the servants to serve him... He cried so silently, the servants really didn't hear it, so he didn't ignore it on purpose!" The little girl knelt on the ground shaking violently, three times desperately. Please tell me five times: "Your servant really didn't hear it. It was Baozhu who went in to deliver water, only to find that the young master was crying all the time, his face was completely red, and he closed his eyes and called His Highness, Your Highness's name..."

Lu Zhi didn't say a word, walked around her quickly and walked out, the little girl was still crying: "Just let him wait until noon, the servant doesn't know, the servant doesn't know..."
