The emperor left Beijing, and his relatives and relatives followed him. Zhao Yuanrong stayed because he was too young to travel around. However, the Chongwen Museum temporarily suspended his studies, so he didn't have to enter the palace.

On the second day after the emperor's chariot left, he got up early and finished practicing, so he couldn't wait to go back to take a shower and wash, and was ready to go out to meet his cousin. Lin Xi promised to take him to live in the farm for a few days today. This season is the season for planting rice seedlings when.

When Gu's mother came in, Zhao Yuanrong was coming out after changing into his inner shirt. A maid was holding a coat in her hand and was about to change it for him, so she walked up quickly.

"My son, it's just right, come and try on this spring shirt to see if it fits well."

As he spoke, he shook off the sapphire blue clothes in his hand and put them on Zhao Yuanrong.

Zhao Yuanrong stretched out his hand and let Gu's mother fasten the belt for him. When he raised his hand, he saw the silver brocade patterns inlaid on the cuffs, and when he looked down, he saw that there were also dark patterns on the collar and hem. And gorgeous.

If he didn't enter the palace, Zhao Yuanrong would follow his father and uncle on weekdays. Although the material is good, the clothes are relatively low-key. For a while, he was not used to the delicate dress before the age of six, and couldn't help but say: "Mom, why don't you Doing such eye-consuming things again, what can I do if I get overwhelmed? I don’t like to wear such clothes now, it’s inconvenient to go out.”

Gu's mother looked at Zhao Yuanrong, who was already a teenager, with a heroic look on his brows, dignified and decent gestures, and the more she looked at him, the more she liked him.

"The prince should dress like this. Look, how good-looking and noble, the princess will be more happy if she sees it. There are a lot of food and clothes in the palace. How can you wrong yourself so much?"

Zhao Yuanrong shook his head, laughed, stretched out another finger and waved it, looking like a little grown-up, "Who dares to wrong me, besides, high status does not depend on how gorgeous the clothes are or how well you travel. How many people follow depends on whether one's heart is strong and whether one's ability is enough to support one's identity. Otherwise, even if others bow their heads in front of them, they will not show much respect behind them. I think my cousin is right, mother, look at father, He is dressed in dark casual clothes on weekdays, who dares to underestimate him when he goes out!"

"The prince is already imposing, but the son is still young. These things are cultivated slowly. The servants only know how to make the son dress well, eat well and sleep well, so they are worthy of the concubine's entrustment." Mother Gu scowled at Zhao Yuanrong, but seeing Zhao Yuanrong's answer Clothes, puzzled, "This is very well dressed, why do you want to change it?"

Zhao Yuanrong untied it on his own, and took it off, and the maid behind him changed him into a half-new gown with a coarse cloth belt around his waist. He looked like a farm child, worse than the servants of the palace.

"Today I want a farm. I will see the farmers planting seedlings and crops. Maybe I have to go to the field. It will be much more convenient to dress like this."

Mother Gu was startled when she heard this, "What, why do you want to go to that kind of place? It's dirty and far away. It just rained last night, so the road is not easy to walk, let alone the muddy ground. An accident can happen. What to do... At the end, he raised his eyebrows and said angrily, "Which servant is so bold that he dares to tease you, so he has to make him look good! "

Zhao Yuanrong was not happy, and grabbed Gu's mother, "What do you mean by teasing me? I wanted to go for a long time. My cousin kept saying that I was too young to understand. Finally, after school in Chongwenguan, he agreed to me when he had free time." .”

It's that Lin Xi again, Mother Gu tried her best not to ask, what kind of ecstasy did he give you, son!

Enduring it, she could only persuade her earnestly: "My lord is not here, my son, you have to be more careful. If something goes wrong, you can teach your slaves what to do, and how can you see the princess when you are under the Nine Springs? My son, you study and practice martial arts. Not for the crop business."

Zhao Yuanrong listened to this impatiently, "My father agrees with this matter. My cousin has been educating me these past few years, and my father has no dissatisfaction. Besides, even the emperor must know how to grow crops, and every year he has to personally demonstrate Jia, why can’t I? Could it be that it’s good if the body is not working hard and the grains are not divided?”

"Sir..."

Zhao Yuanrong suddenly raised his hand, stopped Gu's mother's words, and turned cold, "Needless to say, this matter is settled like this." Then he ordered the doorman, "Go, get the carriage ready, this son is going out."

Zhao Yuanrong walked towards the door as he spoke, turned his head before leaving, but stopped.He hesitated for a while, sighed slightly, turned back and raised his hand to wipe away the tears on Gu's mother's face, "Mom, I know that you are good for me. You can take care of my life since I was a child, but I have grown up. You don't understand the matter, so you can't take care of it, for the sake of our master and servant, you can't be my master."

Gu's mother felt sore, and she was about to kneel down immediately, but was supported by Zhao Yuanrong, only to hear him continue, "I said this because I hope Gu's mother can stay by my side and accompany me all the time."

With tears in her eyes, Gu's mother began to sob, holding onto Zhao Yuanrong's arm, her sobs were so choked up that she couldn't hold back, "Slave... I know... I will definitely do my duty from now on..."

"Yeah." Zhao Yuanrong glanced at the sapphire blue clothes that had been replaced, "The clothes are very good, put them away, it's just this kind of delicate work, mother shouldn't do it, there are so many people in the sewing room, is there nothing to eat! "

Having said this, Zhao Yuanrong's tone became cold.

Gu's mother felt warm, and said: "This is not made by slaves, it is presented to you by Aunt Qing from Qingzhi Pavilion. The eyes of slaves can't stand these, and some are from Aunt Qiu from Qiushuang Pavilion. The servants looked at it." It's also very good, it's finer than the stitches in the sewing room, and the embroidery is not comparable to that of ordinary Xiuniang, and the prince just wears it."

Zhao Yuanrong was startled when he heard the words, and then he remembered that these concubines were his father's concubine, but people can't remember, only know that there were quite a few, and later his father never stepped into the backyard again.

In the daze, I heard Gu's mother sigh, "The prince is very affectionate. After the princess leaves, these people will be used as decorations, but what's the meaning now, the princess can't see it."

Zhao Yuanrong suddenly lost his taste if Gu's mother said something that seemed like nothing. He knew why his father didn't step into the backyard, but it wasn't because of...his mother.

"My lord, do you still remember the princess?"

Mother Gu's last question aroused Zhao Yuanrong's boundless guilt.

Seeing Zhao Yuanrong leave in a state of dismay, even forgetting to bring the new purse, Gu's mother wiped away her tears, her eyes glowing with resentment.

She has been in the palace for so many years, how could the palace not feel the excessive respect for Lin Xi in the palace, even Eunuch Cao, who had to be courteous when Xiao Jinping was alive, took good care of Lin Xi, with intimacy and respect.The reason why Eunuch Cao did this is because of the prince.

She is not a fool, even though the whole palace is silent, they can see some clues. Leaving aside the ridiculous relatives who are three thousand miles away, even if they saved the life of the prince, the high-ranking palace did not put down their dignity like this.

Once there are doubts and some malicious speculations, there will soon be a reason for staying overnight in the palace, and Mama Gu is so disgusted that she can't eat.

How could her son get close to this kind of person!

Just after a light rain fell, the wheels of the carriage hit the bluestone slabs, splashing water splashes.

Lin Xi leaned on the soft back, holding a copy of "Nonglin Miscellaneous Notes" in her hand, flipping through each page, looking through the book at Zhao Yuanrong who had been in a daze for a long time, slightly puzzled.

If she had already been excitedly asking questions beside him on weekdays, she was a little strangely quiet at the moment, and even secretly glanced at herself...

Lin Xi closed the book, rolled it up, and slapped Zhao Yuanrong, "Are there any flowers on my face?"

After being hit, Zhao Yuanrong raised his hand to touch his forehead and shook his head.

Lin Xi put the book aside, stood up and sat up, looking at Zhao Yuanrong, "Do you have something on your mind? Tell me, before you get there, let's see if I can explain you."

Zhao Yuanrong felt that he was wrong, but there was such an awkwardness in his heart. He really couldn't say it, so he glanced at Lin Xi one after another, and finally said, "It's okay. Didn't my cousin always say that farmers are hard? How hard is it? , How is the rice planted?"

Lin Xi frowned, smiled softly, and said to Zhao Yuanrong, "Rong'er, when you want to lie, find a more plausible excuse, which you can come up with just by thinking about it?"

Zhao Yuanrong sneered.

Lin Xi nodded and suddenly raised his voice, "Turn the horse around, let's go back."

Zhao Yuanrong was startled, "Uncle!"

The carriage stopped suddenly, and Lin Fang's voice came, "Master?"

"Go home."

"Wait." Zhao Yuanrong was a little at a loss, "Cousin, didn't you promise me to go to the farm?"

Lin Xi nodded and smiled, "That's right."

Zhao Yuanrong felt a little wronged, so why did he suddenly change his mind?

"Rong'er, since I promised you, I have made sufficient preparations for this trip. The safety of your trip, and the itinerary after you arrive at the farm. What do you need to know, whether to go to the field, what kind of crops to see, what kind of crops to invite Farmers will explain to you, whether to stay there, etc. Although you are not expected to thoroughly understand farming and experience the hardships of the people, I always hope that you will have a deeper experience and feeling. Based on the memorial presented to you by the officials, the most basic livelihood of the people is ignored. As you grow up, I will arrange more things that go deep into the people's feelings. However, I hope you can repay my efforts with a serious attitude. If you are absent-minded , rather than wasting my good intentions, I might as well not go."

Zhao Yuanrong stared blankly at Lin Xi's serious face, his indifferent tone and calm eyes, although there was no trace of reprimand, it made him feel extremely ashamed and unbearable.

"Uncle, Rong'er was wrong, Rong'er wants to go, he must observe carefully."

Lin Xi turned her head to look at him, "Children of your age are the ones who think too much. I am also from this age. I always care about what others say, so I don't blame you. Do you think you can do it today?" Can you adjust yourself? Can you treat me with your usual mood?"

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Yuanrong asked in surprise: "How do you know..."

Before Zhao Yuanrong could utter the following words, Lin Xi snorted coldly, "How long have you been in the car, and have you sneaked a few glances at me? It has nothing to do with me. What do you think I am doing?"

This practice has little to do with being smart or not, but has a lot to do with experience. Obviously, the son's practice is not enough.

Zhao Yuanrong pursed his lips and lowered his head in repentance.

When we first met, Mr. Lin was very respectful to the prince, but after four years, he completely lost his position.

But the father of a high-ranking and powerful child has already been taken down, so what else can't be done?

The carriage continued to move forward, Zhao Yuanrong thought about it, and then said what happened today.

"Mother Gu has been in the palace all her life, so she has limited knowledge, so don't be as knowledgeable as her."

Although the words were hidden behind, Lin Xi could still guess it. Looking back at Zhao Yuanrong's dazed look before, it can be seen that he still minded.

"Cousin, do you want to be my mother?"

Zhao Yuanrong suddenly plucked up the courage to ask a question, but Lin Xi replied without thinking, "No."

"why?"

Lin Xi's categorical refusal made Zhao Yuanrong unable to think wildly, leaving only sadness and surprise.

He thought that Lin Xi had such a relationship with his father. In order to consolidate this relationship and bind Lin Xi, it was natural to win over him, the only son, and take over his life. This was the best way. This is Princess Rui. s right.His father had already clearly recognized and given it. If it wasn't for Lin Xi's wrong gender, she would definitely be his stepmother by now.

However, Lin Xi told him that he didn't want to?Zhao Yuanrong was confused.

Putting his hands through his shoulders and wrapping his arms around his neck, Lin Xi's breath surrounded Zhao Yuanrong, only to hear a faint sigh, "Mother, this responsibility is too heavy, I... can't handle it. The only one in the world The only person who can be your mother is the one who gave birth to you, and no matter how well others do, they cannot be replaced."

Zhao Yuanrong stopped talking, but his eyes turned red.

"You remember her, don't forget what she looks like."

The wetness in the eyes came out of the eye sockets, Zhao Yuanrong stretched out his hand and wiped it, "I haven't forgotten her, really, when I dreamed at night, I still remembered the clothes my concubine made for me... I kept them all the time, even if I couldn't wear them... ..."

Lin Xi gently stroked his head and comforted him, "That's enough. Any mother will always hope that more people can care and protect her child, and the same is true for a father."

Zhao Yuanrong nodded fiercely.

"I don't comment on the relationship between your father and your mother and concubine. As for the relationship between me and Zhao Jingyi, I can only say that I am more selfish. I am willing to be together only if I like him, but if he betrays me, I will break it off and leave. In other words, from now on, we will live our own lives and never see each other again, including you..."

Zhao Yuanrong looked up suddenly, feeling a little unbelievable, and blurted out, "Uncle!"

However, Lin Xi just smiled softly and cruelly, and said gently and decisively: "I only give him one chance to hurt me, and I won't compromise like your mother and concubine. So you don't even have to call me teacher, cousin is the best good."

A relative who has a distance of three thousand miles is broken.

Zhao Yuanrong completely understood what their father and son thought Lin Xi cared about, but in fact he didn't care at all, and kept that retreat anytime and anywhere, and he didn't know when he would never see him again.

Ruo Shui only took one scoop of three thousand, it sounds good, because he couldn't grasp it, he didn't give a reason to leave, Zhao Yuanrong suddenly seemed to understand the reason why his father was so obsessed with him, but he was worried about gains and losses.
