Although Pei Ziqi only met the Empress Dowager once, he had a good impression of the old man.Back then, the late emperor's harem was often dirty, and tragic deaths of princes and concubines often occurred.The Empress Dowager's ability to be alone in that environment, not to have a little blood on her hands, not to do a single dirty thing, shows the purity of her heart.

Inaction does not mean that you are a soft bun. On the contrary, the Queen Mother is an extremely powerful character.She quietly protected many people and allowed them to live safely in the imperial city, among them was Luodi.No matter how smart Luo Di was, he was still a child back then.With no one to protect him, he will never survive to become an adult.

Not to mention anything else, just talk about the fact that the imperial concubine gave Luo Di a marriage. The first emperor was determined to kill Luo Di.The first emperor had no shortage of sons, and for those who rebelled against him, it is better to have one less than one more.The reason why Luodi survived was thanks to the Queen Mother's words.The queen mother said: If the Miss Zhou family wishes to become the queen's side concubine, this matter will be settled like this.If you don't want to, it doesn't matter if Xiao Shiqi (Luo Di) gets beaten up.

The implication is that Luo Di's life must not be killed anyway.No matter how angry the late emperor was, when he met the empress dowager, he was also limp and out of breath.Later, when the first emperor passed away, the empress dowager single-handedly supported Emperor Luo to ascend to the throne, and under the pressure of the officials, she made the decision to let him marry the daughter of Duke Qin as the queen.The so-called kindness is greater than the sky, and Luo Di can have today, thanks to the great blessing of the Queen Mother.

Even though Luo Di is bad in every way, there is one thing that is worthy of admiration - he knows how to repay his kindness, and he has been respectful and filial to the Queen Mother for ten years.Therefore, this empress dowager is the first to bear the brunt of Luo Di's defeat in this world.

Pei Ziqi pointed at the booklet and said with a smile: "Your Highness doesn't read it? If the Empress Dowager finds out that His Highness has left it like this, the old man will probably be unhappy. Presumably, the Empress Dowager has put a lot of thought into this booklet."

The second prince shook his head and chuckled, and said: "Grandmother has good intentions, I should know it. But, I have my own heart, what's the difference between seeing it or not?"

Pei Ziqi was taken aback for a moment, and said with a sneer: "It turns out that Your Highness already has something to belong to. It seems that I have said too much." Then he said: "But, why did Your Highness mention it. I think His Majesty will be very happy if he finds out."

The second prince smiled, and said lightly: "The falling flowers are intentional, but the flowing water is ruthless."

"Young people don't work hard, and the old ones are sad." Pei Zi Qi Yan looked at each other and said softly: "The truth that three-year-old children know, but His Highness has completely forgotten it. How can there be rewards if you don't work hard?"

The second prince laughed uncontrollably: "I have known him for many years, if I really wanted to, why wait until now? I would like to keep this sincerity, and wish him happiness and well-being in this life."

We have known each other for many years, if the second prince really has the heart, I am afraid that he will marry the person he likes early.Why wait until now, to create side effects?It is precisely because of inadvertence that it is out of reach and keeps one's sincerity.

Pei Ziqi was startled for a moment, then smiled and said: "Your Highness is magnanimous, and the thing you love is also handed over. I'm afraid I don't have the magnanimity."

The second prince put down the chess pieces and looked sideways at the sky: "This bird in the sky is really lovable. But if you put it in a cage because you like it, it will be an act of strangulation. The same is true for people. I will not help others, wrong myself, and I will not do harm in the name of love." After a pause, he said: "You don't have to worry about me. Whether it is good or bad depends entirely on yourself. I'm not one to let go."

"Since Your Highness said so, I won't say much." Pei Ziqi picked up the black chess piece and entered the game: "Let's start here, there are only a few pieces left and right."

The second prince held the white chess piece and said: "Zi Qi said just now that he came here today to ask for something important, I don't know what it is?"

White enters the game.Pei Ziqi pinched the black chess piece: "Recently, I'm investigating some matters, which may involve Lord Zhou, Minister of the Ministry of Officials..."

The second prince smiled, and said softly: "Are you worried that I will favor my grandfather and make things difficult for you on purpose?" Shaking his head, he said again: "My son, you are too worried. No one is perfect, and everything is impossible, and my grandfather is an official. Over the years, it is inevitable that there will be a difference of thought. If my grandfather really did something wrong, not only will I not make things difficult for you, but my grandfather will also treat each other honestly and will not make things difficult for you."

Pei Ziqi smiled politely: "If that's the case, then I would like to thank Your Highness and Lord Zhou." He believed in the second prince's promise; as for Zhou Xing...

The second prince seemed to see through his thoughts, and said with a smile: "Why, Ziqi doesn't believe me? On weekdays, does my grandfather make things difficult for you?"

Pei Ziqi was silent.His official style is not good, most of the ministers in the court looked at him with blank eyes, and only a few courtiers spoke nicely to him, such as Sheng Can, Minister of the Ministry of Households, and Zhou Xing, Minister of the Ministry of Officials... There is really no need to please him to be able to sit in the position of Minister For him, this is also what he doesn't understand.

He shook his head and said truthfully: "Master Zhou has always treated me with courtesy and courtesy, and never made things difficult for me."

"Grandfather is old. Although he sometimes gets confused, he is loyal and upright in nature." The second prince played another game: "If grandfather does something wrong, I hope my son will forgive me. As for the father, I am afraid I can't give my son a favor." satisfying answer."

Pei Ziqi raised his eyes and smiled: "It seems that Your Highness understands Your Majesty very well. However, I never expect His Majesty to act fairly." After the chess fell, he said slowly, "Your Highness, I lost."

The second prince was stunned immediately, staring at the chess game in a daze, speechless.Shaoyan, he showed his face and smiled: "Unknowingly, I have won against Ziqi. It's not worth it. Another round, you must have let me do it on purpose."

Pei Ziqi hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "Your Highness, don't embarrass me. I have never been good at chess, and I will lose in another game." After speaking, he put his hands behind his neck and took off the jade pendant on his chest.He put the jade pendant on the table: "The loser should be punished, so that winning or losing is meaningful. This is the jade pendant that I wear next to my body, and now I present it to Your Highness."

Five years ago, he played chess with the man he saved just like today.In the end he won, and the man lost as usual.Afterwards, the man gave him this jade pendant, with the same words as what he just said.He accepted it heartlessly, and imitated a man to wear it close to his chest.

Only later did he know that this jade pendant was a relic of the man's mother.Before leaving, the man said to him: "As long as you hold the jade pendant, no matter where I am, I will return to you."I will protect you with my life, this jade pendant is my promise...'

The second prince stared at him, took the jade pendant on the table, and said softly: "Is this gift too expensive?"

Pei Ziqi smiled, like the wind and Mu: "Promise to return is also a promise. I am no longer who I used to be. I can not only protect myself, but also protect everyone around me." Including you.

The second prince held the jade pendant and looked at each other for a long time, a delicate face was reflected in his eyes.In a blink of an eye, he smiled brightly: "I understand." The jade pendant was put on his chest again, and the remaining breath lingered in his heart.

Pei Ziqi smiled and said: "It's getting late, I wonder if Your Highness would like to keep me for dinner?"

"Don't tell me, I almost forgot. Zi Qi, you must be hungry." The second prince raised his hand and ordered the chessboard to be removed: "The kitchen is moving very quickly, just wait a moment."

Pei Ziqi said without hesitation: "Well, I'm so hungry. I haven't eaten anything since this morning."

The second prince chuckled.For a moment, the atmosphere seemed to return to five years ago, forgetting the identities and secrets separated, and chatting freely with each other.After about a quarter of an hour, the servant brought hot dishes and put them on the table one after another.

"Craucian carp?" Pei Ziqi raised his eyebrows and said in surprise.

Although the meat of crucian carp is delicate and tender, the fish bones are thin and numerous.When Pei Ziqi first came, he didn't have many points.The daily points are first exchanged for medicine for the man, and the rest are exchanged for food.Therefore, there are not many food options for each redemption.Fortunately, crucian carp is cheap, and crucian carp soup can promote wound healing, which solves the urgent need.

Therefore, every time crucian carp is exchanged, the man is responsible for drinking the soup, and he is responsible for digesting the fish.These exchanged crucian carp are all mutants.A small piece of fish can pick out the thorns of a hill.The first time he ate crucian carp, he was stuck to death by these fish bones.From then on, the burden of picking fish bones was handed over to the man, and he never got stuck again.

Later, he inexplicably fell in love with mutant crucian carp.Even if he has enough points, he often exchanges some crucian carp.At first there was a man there, and he ate with gusto.Later, the man left, and he got stuck with a fishbone again, so he couldn't afford to love the mutated crucian carp anymore.

Seeing his appearance, the second prince couldn't help laughing and said: "Don't worry, I'm here."

Pei Ziqi smiled at him with an indescribably bitter smile.In fact, someone wanted to say: Big brother, I haven’t seen you for so many years, how is your skill at picking fishbone? ——From the fear of being dominated by fishbone.

The second prince washed his hands, picked up a piece of fish, and picked out the bones one by one.Fortunately, this is not a mutant crucian carp, and it was picked out in a short while.Pei Ziqi looked at the crucian carp in the bowl, swallowed nervously, and said to the system: "If I get stuck with a fishbone later, remember to rescue me."

The system promised: "Okay, I promise not to let the second prince know that you are dead."

Pei Ziqi: "..."

Pei Ziqi picked up the fish, carefully took a small bite, and chewed slowly.The second prince smiled and said, "How is it? Is the taste good?"

When the fish entered his throat, Pei Ziqi was shocked, and quickly took a big bite of the fish.That's right, this tastes exactly the same as the crucian carp exchanged by the system.A thought suddenly flashed across: In the past five years, will the second prince always live in memory?

He looked at the second prince, silent and focused, then smiled and said, "It's delicious, Your Highness, please take care."

The second prince smiled softly, and picked up the fishbone with his eyes down.After the meal, Pei Ziqi cleaned up all the fish, and the second prince just drank some fish soup.Pei Ziqi ate very full, and his stomach was a little round.Regarding this, the second prince didn't look at it and laughed, but instead suggested euphemistically to go for a walk.

Pei Ziqi responded with a blushing face, and walked leisurely through the backyard by the second prince's side.The backyard is huge, like an endless maze.Scenes and scenes reveal a sense of familiarity, which obviously has nothing to do with the movie, but it always reminds people of five years ago.

The two walked for a long time, until the shadow stretched too long before Pei Ziqi left.Standing in front of the door, Pei Ziqi suddenly said: "Brother, do you know who designed this palace? I am looking at Huanxi, and I am going to ask this master to help design it."

The boy said with a smile: "Master Pei really has vision. This imperial residence was built after copying the Jiangnan residence. Therefore, the interior and exterior of this residence were all designed by His Highness."

Pei Ziqi nodded with a chuckle, said thank you, and left the palace...

The author has something to say: I wrote this article more implicitly, and it may not be obvious sometimes.You guys can tell me, I'll explain it properly

For example, Zhang Nan heard Yun Qing's last sentence in the last chapter.It was written in that chapter that Yun Qing said that Zhang Nan's Qinggong was good, but he couldn't find out.Look at the end, Zhang Nan's smile, and his gaze...

In fact, I didn't write a lot of dialogues indiscriminately, and I will use them later.Even if it is not used in this chapter, it will definitely be used later.
