Uncle, I didn't mean to tease you

It is the time when the capital is full of spring, as if no matter what happens, time will fade away one by one, and then gradually fade away without knowing it.

It's a pity that this is only on the surface. In fact, the existing problems have never disappeared.Li Mian is still imprisoned in the sky prison, and the military power of the Northern Army is still pending, but the initial floating people's hearts have now turned to the dark.

As soon as Liu Hengyuan's May [-]th celebration was over, the emperor sent an oral order, ordering Liu Jing and Liu An to enter the palace together, saying that the emperor had specially held a private banquet and wanted to talk to the two of them.

It was a narration, but in fact, it was just to talk to Liu Jing and Liu Jing before the public hearing of Li Mian, so that the two of them would not be able to understand the meaning of the emperor, and then say something that should not be said.

The servant who passed the word of mouth was waiting in the front hall, while Liu Jing and Liu An went back to their rooms to change into military uniforms.Because Liu Jing had been keeping filial piety before, both of them wore plain wide-sleeved robes. Now that they were going to enter the palace to face saints, although they didn't need official uniforms, they had to change into more decent clothes.

"I've lost a lot of weight." Liu An casually said while helping Liu Jing adjust his belt.

"It will grow back after practicing, don't worry." Liu Jing said.

Liu An glanced at him secretly, thinking that there is nothing to worry about, could this guy associate such a sigh with that kind of thing?

Seeing that the tips of his ears were red, Liu Jing secretly smiled.

The two of them had never been intimate since they returned to Beijing. Although there was no saying in the Dayu Dynasty that children should keep their filial piety and not have intercourse, but they hadn't been on May [-]th before, and they had experienced the pain of bereavement, so the two of them really didn't care.

"If I meet someone who knows my father when I enter the palace, will they guess my identity?" Liu An asked.

Liu Jing straightened his neckline for him, and said: "Don't worry, take a bath today, you won't meet anyone you shouldn't meet. Besides, since His Majesty chose to meet you today, he must have made thorough arrangements. You will not be seen by anyone who recognizes you."

Liu An nodded upon hearing this.

"Your brain is more flexible than anyone else, what happened today?" Liu Jing asked.

"It's okay, maybe I have to face the saint, I'm a little nervous." Liu An said.

Liu Jing stretched out his hand to rub Liu An's cheek for a moment, and said, "Don't worry, nothing will happen if I'm here, don't worry."

Liu An nodded when he heard the words, and went out with Liu Jing.

The palace specially sent a carriage to pick them up. The two of them seldom have the habit of riding in a carriage, and they are not used to sitting in it slowly.

Liu An lay on the car window looking at the scene outside, and suddenly realized that he hadn't spent much time in the capital for a long time, but he was very unfamiliar with this place, so he immediately decided to find a chance to hang out with Liu Jing. yes.

"There's a nice restaurant over there, I'll take you to try it some other day," Liu Jing said.

Hearing this, Liu An turned to look at him, and saw Liu Jing sitting in the car wearing a military uniform. He was indescribably handsome, so he couldn't help but feel agitated, and hurriedly looked away.Staying in the Shuai's mansion these days, I haven't seen each other for a long time.

"I remember when I was in the capital, my family lived in this street, right?" Liu An said with the car curtain still lifted.

Liu Jing was silent for a moment, frowned slightly, and remained silent.Liu An just pretended that he didn't hear it, and felt a little lonely when he thought about the past, so he didn't continue talking.

The carriage went straight to the outside of the palace gate, and the servant who led the way took care of everything and led the two of them in.Liu An hadn't set foot in the palace for many years, only felt a familiar yet strange feeling, even if he felt a little emotional.

The red walls and gold tiles in the palace have not changed, and even the masonry roads are exactly the same as before, but nearly ten years have passed, and everything has changed.

The two went all the way to the Ninghe Hall, and after entering the main hall, the emperor was waiting in the hall, and indeed a banquet was set up for the two of them.It's just that Grand Concept and Liu Hengyuan have just passed May [-]th, and the dishes on the table are very plain, which seems to be deliberately arranged.

The two met respectfully and saluted, the emperor personally supported Liu Jing and said "no need to be too polite", then waved his hand and dismissed the crowd, leaving only the eunuch who had just gone to invite someone to wait on him.

After some courtesy from the monarch and ministers, Liu Jing and Liu An were able to sit down.The emperor was obviously very preoccupied. After taking his seat, he sighed several times and hesitated to speak several times.

"Is everything at home arranged properly?" the emperor asked.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern, everything has been properly arranged," Liu Jing said.

The emperor coughed dryly, then suddenly raised his head to look at Liu An, and said, "I heard that you have also made meritorious service this time. If your father is alive in heaven, he must be very relieved."

Liu An was very displeased when he heard the words, thinking that you still have the face to mention my father in front of me!But when the emperor spoke, he had to answer, so he could only look up at the emperor, but he couldn't help being startled, only to see that the other side's face was reddish, and his eyes were a little moist.

Liu An was originally a bit angry, but now he couldn't express it, so he could only speak a little distantly: "It must be."

The emperor smiled wryly, and said again: "When he wanted to leave the capital and go to Lizhou, I begged in every possible way to keep him, but he refused to stay. Later, I knew that he loved you the most, so I promised that as long as he stayed, I would let you stay." To be the prince's companion, to study with the prince."

Liu An couldn't help sneering when he heard the words, Li Qin had just ascended the throne back then and had no heirs at all, such an empty promise was too far-fetched.

"It's a pity that I didn't have any heirs back then, and I only have..." Li Qin said halfway, but couldn't help but stop, unable to speak any more.

Liu An said: "Father has been indifferent all his life, so naturally he doesn't care about fame and fortune."

The emperor nodded when he heard the words, and said: "It's because I was too young, and I didn't know what he was thinking in the end. Even if I had a little understanding of his character, I shouldn't bring him back to the court again after a few years." What happened! Since he is gone, he will never come back to this place of right and wrong."

If he didn't mention it, the Yang family would never have caused such a disaster!

Now he understands, but what's the use?

"The house you lived in the capital city has never been touched. I have been taking care of it secretly, so it has never been abandoned. I have already told Liu Jing that if you are willing, the house will be given to you in the future. It can be regarded as returning to the original owner." The emperor said.

Liu An was startled when he heard the words, and quickly turned to look at Liu Jing. Liu Jing lowered his eyebrows, it was obvious that what the emperor said was true.The emperor actually mentioned this matter to Liu Jing in private, but why Liu Jing never mentioned it to himself?No wonder Liu Jing didn't answer the question when he mentioned his house just now, so it was because of a guilty conscience?

Moreover, after the emperor learned of his identity before, he had been deliberately concealing it, obviously he did not want to appear in front of everyone in the court.If he really gave himself the Yang family's old house, it would be tantamount to telling everyone Yang Liu'an's identity, so what's the point?

Could it be that he exposed his identity and attracted assassins to kill him?Isn't this just giving oneself to death in disguise?But this is too oblique, why not kill him directly?

"I don't know what His Majesty means?" Liu An asked.

The emperor suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't answer Liu An's words, but changed the subject: "I went to the prison to visit Lao Liu, and he has always treated me sincerely. Fortunately, it did not lead to a catastrophe in the end, I know that he did not intend to rebel, and when he is angry, he will be angry, and he cannot really be punished."

These words are so straightforward, it turns out that he has to forgive the Sixth Prince again!It is very rare for an emperor to do this.His own younger brother has repeatedly provoked him and refused to speak up, and now that he has spoken out about the rebellion, it has become known to everyone, and it is easy to expose it with the words "coerced by Muli".

"In the matter of Chizhou, the ministers are only following orders. Since His Majesty said so, then it is right." Liu Jing said.

The emperor nodded and said: "The Ministry of Criminal Justice will try this case some other day. Go and testify in person. The northern army has wiped out Muli. This is a great achievement. After the matter of the sixth prince is settled, I will reward you heavily."

Liu Jing said: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

The emperor saw that both of them lacked interest, and now that he had already said all he wanted to say, he did not force them to stay, and ordered the servant beside him, "Bring the box."

The servant heard the words and brought a wooden box over, the emperor took the wooden box and handed it to Liu An, saying: "You have grown up so much, and I have never given you anything, this is for you, keep it well."

When Liu An heard the words, he felt a little nervous, but he couldn't say no to things given by the emperor.So he took the box very reluctantly, thinking that it would be a big deal that he lost it on the way home.

Unexpectedly, the emperor saw through his thoughts and said, "Imperial gift is not something to be taken lightly, it must be kept well. If it is lost or damaged, it will be a crime of beheading."

Hearing this, Liu An had no choice but to thank her, and reluctantly held the box in her arms.

The things that should be said are finished, and the things that should be delivered are also delivered.The emperor sent the two of them out of the palace again, and along the way Liu An hugged the box like a hot potato, without saying a word, only feeling very depressed.

After getting into the carriage, Liu An put the box aside, not even wanting to look at it again.

"Aren't you curious what he gave you?" Liu Jing asked.

Liu An looked up at Liu Jing, and said, "When did he talk to you about the house?"

Liu Jing raised his eyebrows and said, "Not long ago, I was about to tell you, but he took the lead."

"How long is not long? Two months ago?" Liu An asked.

Liu Hengyuan passed away more than a month ago, so the emperor couldn't possibly have said it during this time, so it could only be before they returned to the capital, so if you calculate it, it can't be two months ago?I didn't expect Liu Jing to be able to hide it so much!

"When you went to Xiliao." Liu Jing whispered with some guilt.

That should be three or four months ago!

Liu Jing has never mentioned it without telling the truth.

The author has something to say: Liu Jing: It's over, the daughter-in-law is about to lose her temper, what should I do?Wait online... Urgent! ! !

Emperor: Hehe...revenge from a single dog! (←You are not single!)
