royal husband

Chapter 24

After the banquet was over, Li Jin was left by Gu Rushuang to chat.

At this time, the two were sitting opposite each other, and the palace people had already been shunned by Gu Rushuang.Yingyuan also wanted to stay here together, but Gu Rushuang didn't agree and asked Zhiqiu to send Yingyuan back.

"Your Highness, please."

Li Jin first poured a cup of tea for Gu Rushuang.

Gu Rushuang took the tea, looked at Li Jin who was sitting opposite her and said directly, "Jin'er, do you want to ask me why I suddenly have such a plan?"

Li Jin nodded and said, "Yes."

Although Gu Rushuang hadn't said anything yet, Li Jin had already guessed that this matter had something to do with Ying Zhengjing just now when he looked at Gu Rushuang.

As expected, Li Jin guessed right.

"It's what the emperor meant."

While Gu Rushuang was speaking, her eyes were fixed on Li Jin.

Gu Rushuang so easily told Li Jin what Ying Zhengjing had specifically told him not to spread it out, in order to cultivate and test Li Jin.If Li Jin couldn't keep the secret and accidentally leaked the news, Gu Rushuang also had countermeasures, but at the same time, Gu Rushuang would no longer have any expectations of Li Jin, and would only guarantee that his life would be worry-free.

Li Jin asked suspiciously, "Your Highness, why did the emperor do this?"

In his previous life, Ying Zhengjing was a suspicious and thoughtful emperor. Li Jin didn't believe that Ying Zhengjing would make such a decision for no reason, because in his previous life, it took Li Jin to help Ying Ziqi dispel Ying Zhengjing's suspicion about him. A lot of strength.

"I don't know either." Gu Rushuang shook her head, "But I feel that the emperor's action has the intention of suppressing the Helian family and the Shen family. Recently, the two families have been too popular."

Because Ying Zhengjing had not established a crown prince for many years, the ministers of the previous courts had called for Ying Zhengjing to set up a crown prince one after another during this period, and the most influential among them was Ying Zihui, the eldest prince born to concubine Shu Helian Yuxi. And Ying Ziheng, the second prince born to Concubine Chun Shen Qianxue.The Helian family and the Shen family are supporting the two princes respectively.

Li Jin pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Your Highness, are you referring to the Shen family or the Helian family?"

As a reborn person, Li Jin is no stranger to the grievances between the Helian family and the Shen family, but the problem is that Li Jin is only a six-year-old child and has never seen those people, and it is even more impossible for someone in the Dingbei Palace to take such an important Tell Li Jin about it.So if Li Jin really answered according to Gu Rushuang's words, it would definitely arouse Gu Rushuang's suspicion later.

"Uh...it's Ben Gong who is stunned, I told you this when you were young." Realizing what she said, Gu Rushuang shook her head helplessly and amusedly, "Well, Ben Gong will tell you about Gong Gong now. There are some things in it, so that you don't know."

Li Jin cupped his hands and said, "I would like to hear the details."

Gu Rushuang was willing to take the initiative to tell him these things, but Li Jin would not refuse.

Gu Rushuang coughed, "In addition to Concubine Chun's ninth son, who was only born a year ago, and the third, fifth, and seventh sons who met you, there are nine princes, three princesses and Of the two emperors, the ones that deserve your most careful handling are the second child born to Concubine Chun and the eldest son born to Concubine Shu, if any of them becomes the prince and wants to win you over, you can't agree..."

Gu Rushuang was afraid that Li Jin would not be able to understand at a young age, so she explained it in detail, and even told Li Jin about the quarrel between Lan Xiwei and Lan Yingying.

"His Royal Highness is afraid that if the minister takes refuge in one of them, it will arouse the suspicion of the emperor?"

"good."

Gu Rushuang nodded in satisfaction because of Li Jin's cleverness.

She just likes dealing with smart people.

"I will pay attention to keeping a distance from them in the future."

Gu Rushuang asked back, "Don't you blame me for making you lose the merit of being a dragon?"

Li Jin raised his head to meet Gu Rushuang's eyes, and said word by word, "His Royal Highness, Queen Xin."

Gu Rushuang was silent, and it took a while before she opened her mouth to say, "If Rulan could be like you back then... that's all, the past can't be traced back, Jin'er, I'm exhausted, you go back first... By the way, Jin'er, before you leave Go and see Lao Qi, I see that he seems to have something to tell you..."

Li Jin resigned, "Yes, Your Highness the Empress."

……

Yingyuan looked at Zhiqiu stubbornly.

"I want to see Li Jin."

If Zhiqiu hadn't hired two guards to guard the door, Yingyuan would have tried to find a chance to escape.

"Li Shizi has an important matter to discuss with His Royal Highness the Empress, please don't worry the Seventh Prince." Zhiqiu still said the same words, and didn't mean to let Li Jin leave the room.

"You said that as long as I become the adopted son of the queen mother, you will let me meet Li Jin."

"Yes, but Prince Li can't see you right now...uh...quickly stop the Seventh Prince and don't let him go out."

It's too late, it's too soon.

Under Zhiqiu's astonishment, Yingyuan moved the stool to the window and stepped on it, intending to go out through the window, but the window was a certain distance from the ground, and Yingyuan would definitely fall if he jumped out of the window.

After hearing this, the guards hurried up to stop it.

No matter what.

Ying Yuan moved even faster, and jumped out of the window the moment they stopped him.

Zhiqiu shouted in fright, "Seventh Prince..."

Li Jin outside the door just happened to see Ying Yuan fall off the roller twice from the window, and was stunned.

Yingyuan also happened to see Li Jin, and immediately got up and ran to Li Jin, "You said you would come back to see me soon, you broke your promise."

"Seventh Prince, are you...uh... Li Shizi, are you here?" Zhiqiu who chased after him saw Li Jin for the first time, and was stunned, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Li Jin glanced at Yingyuan, who was a little embarrassed, and Zhiqiu, who hadn't recovered from the panic, "Let's go in and talk."

Not a moment.

The three of them entered the room.

Li Jin spoke first, "Can you tell me what's going on?"

Zhiqiu knew that Gu Rushuang planned to use Li Jin again, so he didn't dare to hide anything and told Li Jin exactly what happened just now, "It's the slaves who neglected their duties and didn't like the Seventh Prince..."

"..."

After hearing Zhiqiu's explanation, Li Jin's mouth twitched involuntarily.

To climb the window to see him?

Li Jin looked at Ying Yuan with hard words, because Li Jin really couldn't imagine that Ying Yuan would do such a naive thing.But it happened right under Li Jin's nose, it's hard to believe it or not.

"Zhiqiu, go to Her Royal Highness the Queen first, I want to have a private talk with the Seventh Prince."

"Yes."

Zhiqiu nodded and turned to leave.

After Zhiqiu closed the door, Li Jin took out the wound medicine from his bosom, looked at Yingyuan's right hand and said, "Seventh prince, take up the sleeve of your right hand, I'll help you apply the wound medicine."

Ying Yuan shook his head and refused, "I'm not hurt."

"The sleeves are a little red, how can it be okay?" Li Jin came over and helped Ying Yuan lift up the sleeves himself.

instantly.

The large area of ​​scratches on Yingyuan's arm was exposed/exposed/to the air.

"I……"

"Don't move around, hold on."

Unable to refuse, Li Jin dug out the wound medicine and helped Ying Yuan apply it.

"hiss……"

As soon as the wound medicine touched the bruised skin, Ying Yuan let out a subconscious cry of pain.

"Didn't you say you weren't injured just now? What is this?"

"It really didn't hurt just now."

"No pain at first doesn't mean it won't hurt later." Li Jin glanced at Ying Yuan angrily, "Oops, I forgot to ask you to clean the wound first. Wait a minute, I'll ask someone to fetch a plate of clean water."

"I'm fine, don't go."

Ying Yuan tightly grasped Li Jin's right hand and did not let go.
