Zhao Jingyi waited silently for His Majesty the Emperor to talk about his vision for the southern tour, all the way down from Mount Tai to visit the mountains and rivers in the south, no, to experience the people's feelings.

In other words, I still want to visit privately on Weibo!

Where did this crooked idea come from?Zhao Jingyi couldn't help but glance at her father-in-law.

Lai Gonggong is really suffering and can't tell. He wants to persuade, but he has to listen to it!

His face wrinkled into a ball and he spread out his hands in pain, secretly stretched out three fingers, and in a blink of an eye he was supporting Fuchen and staring at his feet as if nothing had happened.

Since Hu Nu's defeat, Emperor Xia Jing's actions were no longer as cautious as before. After Feng Chan was finalized, his self-confidence skyrocketed.With a little instigation from people with ulterior motives, the matter was basically settled.

Now Emperor Xia Jing asked what Zhao Jingyi meant, but he only wanted the support of his always reliable nephew.

"Why didn't Jingyi speak, but felt it was wrong?" Emperor Xia Jing frowned at him.

Having said so much, there is no reaction at all, no agreement or disapproval can be seen from that cold and serious face, it is not like his own son, who can continue with interest as soon as he wakes up, only his face is full of excitement And Confucian admiration.

However, Emperor Xia Jing also knew that the virtues of King Shu and King Liang were not true. If this reliable nephew agreed or even did not object, he would feel more confident facing the courtiers tomorrow.

Since dissuasion is useless, why should he disappoint?

Zhao Jingyi said: "Since the emperor is going to tour the south, officials at all levels along the road must be picked up. How to arrange the route is particularly important. Everything is based on the safety of the emperor. The accompanying concubines and officials need to be sent back to the capital. , How to allocate manpower has to be carefully considered. However, these are not urgent, and it will not be too late to make plans after the emperor plans to inspect the places. The troublesome thing is..."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Xia Jing raised his eyebrows, and asked with a pleasant face, "What's the trouble?"

"Who stays in the capital."

After Zhao Jingyi dropped a thunderbolt, leaving Emperor Xia Jing to think, he walked out of the palace under the moonlight.

Lai Gonggong sent him out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and said with a sad face: "My lord left simply, the emperor is afraid that he will have trouble sleeping and eating."

Zhao Jingyi stopped in her tracks and turned to look at the old man. At this time, in the shadow of the moonlight, his expression could not be seen clearly, only a gentle voice that was different from usual.

"This king is just discussing the matter. My father-in-law has been with me for many years. You should know that one day, if the emperor insists on making a southern tour, the courtiers will definitely not let this opportunity go. Bringing it up earlier will give uncle a clear idea."

Hearing this, the father-in-law's expression softened, "The emperor will definitely understand the intentions of the prince."

Zhao Jingyi smiled, and said in a low voice, "This king also has selfish intentions." He raised his voice as he spoke, "Eunuch, don't send him off, let's go into the palace to serve the emperor."

Lai Gonggong slightly bowed his waist and respectfully said: "My lord, go slowly."

Zhao Jingyi took one look at him and strode away, but before taking two steps, he turned around and said, "Lai Eunuch seems to be from the same town as Cao Eunuch, and also about the same age?"

Eunuch Cao went in without knowing, but he stopped in his tracks and replied, "Yes, we all came from Wujia Village in Chenzhou. Eunuch Cao is one year older than Zajia."

Zhao Jingyi nodded, and said casually: "Eunuch Cao once mentioned to this king that he is old and has no nephews, so he built a yard under Yangshan Mountain in Chenzhou, planted some fruit trees and vegetables, and raised some chickens and ducks. It is used for retirement, but a person will be lonely after all, I wonder if the father-in-law would like to be his companion in the future?"

Hearing this, the father-in-law's heartbeat suddenly became faster, and now he has reached the extreme, the emperor is getting old slowly, and the princes are getting older one by one. Having a safe time is the best ending.

From Eunuch Lai's point of view, Prince Rui's royal family is now in full swing, and he gets along well with the two princes, and it doesn't make people feel like they are in the same boat. Of course, with Zhao Jingyi's achievements and status, there is no need to be like this, he is the most reliable people.

If Zhao Jingyi can help him in the future, the hope that he can die and go to bed will be even greater.

Thinking of this, Eunuch Lai immediately smiled like a daisy, bent his back subconsciously, and joked: "The relationship is good. The old slave and Eunuch Cao have been friends for 30 years. They worked together in front of the Empress Dowager. What a good idea, even a place for the elderly has been found, thanks to such a considerate master as the prince, from now on the old slave will have to lick his face and bother the prince."

He even changed his name.

Zhao Jingyi slightly hooked his lips and said, "It's easy to say."

Walking along the palace road all the way towards the palace gate, Zhao Jingyi was thinking about whether to visit the White House at night again, when he heard someone calling him.

"My lord." Wei Jia had been waiting at the gate of the palace since he came out of the White Mansion, but he didn't expect his lord to come out so late.

Zhao Jingyi got on the horse, pulled the rein, and looked sideways at him.

Wei Jia knew where he was going by looking at the direction of his prince's big black horse, but he was just invited out by Yuanyuan's girl tonight, so he reminded him bravely: "My lord, Mr. Lin said, late at night So that you don't have to see him again, he has already rested."

Wei Jia's embellishment made these words appear less impolite, but it's better not to mention the original words.

Zhao Jingyi stopped his horse, looked towards the direction of the White Mansion in the west of the city for a few moments, and suddenly smiled and said: "He is indeed asleep at this time, anyway, this king just took a look at it and left."

It was supposed to congratulate Lin Xi today, but the emperor was so excited that they chatted until late at night, and even today's green card was not presented.

Zhao Jingyi had a premonition in his heart that before the Spring Festival, he might not have free time and run away.Since he couldn't be disrespectful to his uncle, let's take a look first to relieve the pain of lovesickness.

"My lord..." Wei Jia sneered, "Young master is angry."

Zhao Jingyi paused slightly, "What do you say?"

Wei Jia thought of Mr. Lin under the lamp with a cold mouth and a sarcasm in his mouth. Although his voice was gentle, it forced him to break out in a cold sweat.

"Every time I come here, I have to climb the wall in the dark. Since when did the dignified Prince Rui have this habit? Or is it that I, Lin Xi, are shameless and have to sneak in and out, so I am not worthy to open the door to welcome the prince's distinguished guests?"

After speaking, he was invited out.

Wei Jia secretly complained, this can't be said directly, can it?

Following Zhao Jingyi since childhood, Wei Jia has never lied to him, so he can only hew and haw.

Not to mention that Zhao Jingyi had already made a rough guess, and after thinking for a while, he asked, "Did Xi'er wait for a long time?"

Wei Jia nodded obediently.

So Zhao Jingyi didn't say any more, put his legs on the horse, and headed towards the west of the city.

Although he is not proficient in this matter of love and love, this is the first time he has encountered it, but at this moment he clearly knows that if he really does not go to see Lin Xi today, the days when he wants that person will be even more uncertain in the future up.

Sure enough, the inner courtyard of the White House was still empty, only the outer courtyard was firmly guarded by the secret hands of Prince Rui's residence.

Zhao Jingyi easily touched Lin Xi's wing, but there was still no one guarding the night inside, and even the door could be opened with a light push.

Wei Jia watched in admiration as his lord walked in as if no one was there, while he stood outside the door with a winking look.However, as soon as he turned his head, he saw that the window of the ear room was slightly opened.

He subconsciously raised his hands and cupped his fists, arching in a flattering manner.

Even though he was the head of Prince Rui's personal guard, he didn't dare to show embarrassment to the little girl beside Mr. Lin.

The slit was quickly closed, and then Yuanyuan walked out, holding a lantern in her hand, gave Wei Jia an unfriendly look, and then walked back.

After a while, the man came back with a food box besides the lantern in his hand.

Wei Jia hurried over to take the lantern, Yuanyuan pouted and said nothing, then glanced at him again, opened the food box, brought out a bowl of ginger soup and handed it to him, and stuffed him with two white steamed buns, then Then he walked into Lin Xi's bedroom silently.

Only Wei Jia was left with a lantern handle under his arm, a steamed bun in one hand, and ginger soup in the other, who was smiling silly.

Zhao Jingyi walked to Lin Xi's bed, and the person on the bed immediately turned his back to him.

"Xi'er, aren't you asleep?"

A muffled voice came from the darkness, "Fall asleep."

Zhao Jingyi laughed lowly twice, and sat down on the head of the bed, the person wrapped in the quilt rolled inward, leaving a pitch-black head.

"Don't hold your breath, come out and talk to me."

A hand touched the top of his head, and Lin Xi shrank back inside.

In the darkness, Zhao Jingyi smiled, and after a while, he suddenly rolled over on the bed, hugged the man wrapped in long strips, pulled off the quilt that was almost missing the top of his head, pinched Lin Xi's chin and kissed him.

Breathing is not smooth, the strong breath rushes towards the face, plundering the surroundings, grabbing Lin Xi's senses.

Under this rather domineering move, Lin Xi struggled symbolically twice before letting him go.

With a soft sigh, Lin Xi's name was called, Zhao Jingyi kissed the wet lips, and then leaned to his ear and sprayed his ears with hot air, "Don't be angry, I really can't help myself today, I wish I could fly over to find you, I want to Being so affectionate with you, Xi'er, have I missed you since I haven't seen you for ten days?"

Lin Xi couldn't help being ashamed, and she couldn't see the red tide on her face in the dark, but the heat was rising steadily.

It was a little hot, so he loosened the quilt a little, touched Zhao Jingyi's face and neck with his hands, stroked it subconsciously twice, and responded.

Thankfully, it wasn't easy.

Zhao Jingyi kissed his lips again, and said: "Today, I must congratulate you on passing the entrance examination, and when I have time, I will congratulate you properly."

Lin Xi couldn't help but bend her eyes, "It's just a college exam. It won't be too late to congratulate me after I pass the provincial exam and get admitted to Jinshi."

"What a big tone." Zhao Jingyi smiled, "But my Xi'er has her own skills."

That's for sure, although they have this relationship, but he still wants to rely on his own strength to achieve the status.

Lin Xi thought of today's entangled doubts, Zhao Jingyi was by his side, and he could ask, so when he was thinking about how to ask questions in a non-deliberate manner, Yuanyuan's voice came to mind at the door.

"Young master, the servant has come in."

As soon as the words were finished, Lin Xi subconsciously pushed Zhao Jingyi, and pushed him out of bed without hesitation.

This was not the first time, Zhao Jingyi twitched the corners of his mouth, quite dissatisfied, but he didn't say anything, just took two steps and sat by the table.

Yuanyuan waited outside for a while before coming in, took a torch and lit the oil lamp, and instantly the room was lit up.

She glanced at her young master calmly, the pajamas were intact, Prince Rui was sitting on the side with a cold expression, very nice.

"My lord, it's cold outside, drink a bowl of ginger soup and take some snacks to get rid of the cold."

She arranged the bowls and chopsticks one by one, then turned around and helped Lin Xi get out of bed and put on her clothes.

"Wrap it thicker, don't catch a cold." Zhao Jingyi instructed.

The tightly wrapped Lin Xi sat beside Zhao Jingyi, watching him finish eating the food on the table, Yuanyuan put away the bowls and chopsticks and went out.Before leaving, he was still reluctant to part, and cast several wary glances at Zhao Jingyi.

Zhao Jingyi jokingly said: "You girl is really loyal to protect the Lord."

Lin Xi said with emotion, "I grew up with me, even though I'm a maid, I'm still a younger sister."

If it weren't for these two girls, Mother Zhou, Uncle Lin and other old servants by my side, I might not have survived until now.

Not relatives but better than relatives.

Zhao Jingyi didn't care at all, but Lin Xi's smile suddenly felt sour, and it spread out.

When Lin Xi was the age of an ordinary son of an aristocratic family, there were already people in the house.

He suppressed the unfamiliar sourness, and asked casually: "Are these two fat girls sixteen?"

Lin Xi nodded, "Yeah, I became a big girl in a blink of an eye."

Should I find a husband's family to marry off, or do I still want to stay for the rest of my life?

Zhao Jingyi wanted to ask this question very much, but he was a prince, so he couldn't be so narrow-minded, and said in a circle: "If you don't want to give up, then you can stay for a while, other people will serve you, and don't make people feel at ease."

Couldn't have been more understanding and tolerant.

Lin Xi squinted at him, and exposed it bluntly, "Okay, don't cover up your small thoughts by obscurity, is it sour?"

He watched Zhao Jingyi pour a glass of water in embarrassment with a smile, so he comforted him: "Since I regard them as younger sisters, I must make good plans for them, I must find a good place to marry in a bright red wedding dress in the future. "

Only then did Zhao Jingyi feel relieved, and he wondered if any of his subordinates would marry Lin Xi's left and right arms back, and they would often turn their elbows outward at critical moments in the future.

"Why is it so late today, is there anything important?"

Lin Xi took Zhao Jingyi's teacup, even though he knew it was a bit over the top, he still couldn't help asking.

At this moment, Zhao Jingyi finally realized that the husband and wife had a deep relationship and talked about everything. Even if Lin Xi didn't ask, he who was usually tight-lipped wanted to tell him the emperor's unconstrained thoughts tonight.

It's dangerous but also sweet.

After Zhao Jingyi finished talking about the southern tour in a concise manner, Lin Xi fell silent.

Lin Xi thought silently for a while, and then said with certainty: "The emperor can't leave."

Zhao Jingyi raised his eyebrows, "Why?"

Lin Xi smiled, then collected his expression, and said calmly: "Since ancient times, a country cannot be without a king for a day, and the king must not stay away from the capital. If the emperor wants to tour the south, he must appoint a prince."

Zhao Jingyi nodded slightly, with light in his eyes.

Lin Xi then continued: "And this crown prince cannot stand now. The emperor has been watching for many years, and he must not be satisfied with the king of Liang and the king of Shu. The older he gets, the more he refuses to accept his age. Concubine Shu gave birth to a little princess, showing his The glory is still the same, how can you easily let the courtiers succeed and confirm the crown prince?"

"He won't." Zhao Jingyi affirmed, and added, "But he wants to tour the south."

Lin Xi was surprised, "Could it be the two kings supervising the country?"

Zhao Jingyi touched Lin Xi's face, looking obedient, but dared to say anything.

But Zhao Jingyi couldn't help following Lin Xi's thoughts, "It depends on whether the power of the ministers can overcome the king's will."

Lin Xi looked at him and couldn't help but said, "It's hard for you."

The all-important Prince Rui will definitely be dragged into a side fight.

Lin Xi was a little distressed, and started to come up with bad ideas, "Why don't you call yourself sick at the court meeting tomorrow?"

It was a pity that he could figure it out, Zhao Jingyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he got up and drove him to rest.

"I'm going back first. I guess I'll be busy for a while. Take care of yourself and don't worry me."

Lin Xi nodded, and suddenly said to Zhao Jingyi, "Come here."

Zhao Jingyi was puzzled, but still walked into him, and then he opened his eyes wide, feeling a heat on his lips.

The pitch-black pupils suddenly dimmed, and a flame ignited in his heart. He wanted to take this opportunity to go deeper, but he was pushed out of the door unexpectedly.

I saw Mr. Lin standing inside the door with a smile and said: "Let's go, don't keep thinking about climbing the wall, private meetings in the middle of the night are not good."

Zhao Jingyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so she could only obediently obey her orders.

Turning around and about to leave, she heard Lin Xi's words, "Zhao Jingyi, if you can be the master of the house, you won't have to work so hard."

As soon as the words were finished, the door was closed, Zhao Jingyi looked back and stopped for a long time.

The heartbeat was extremely cheerful, and in the snowy weather, the whole body was extremely warm, as if a hot spring had been planted in the bottom of my heart, with boiling water continuously bubbling.

His Lin Xi!
