Jade of Rebirth

The group continued on the road again. This time they gave up the carriage and took the water route, rented a boat, and went down the river. They arrived in Yangzhou, south of Kyoto, in two days, and then returned to Kyoto from Yangzhou.

Because it was a waterway, no assassin appeared this time.

Until approaching the capital, Yuli was still thinking, why is it that the Prince's people have always been there, and the King Jing's people didn't even show up?Fortunately, he is still on tenterhooks...

Yuan Heng knew it, and said with a smile: "You don't know, King Jing is waiting for the prince to do it now, so that he can fight with a snipe and a clam for the fisherman's profit. He is a dangerous person, how can he do something that is at a disadvantage? Let the prince pick it up." Cheap?"

While Jing Wang Yuanmin was dealing with Yuanying, he was also secretly planning to deal with the prince!

Because of this, the three forces can maintain a balance, and nothing major has happened until now.

It only took one day to return to Beijing from Yangzhou. After the two returned to the palace, Yu Li went back to rest in the palace, and Yuan Heng went to the emperor to report on the disaster relief situation.Of course, as soon as he returned to Beijing, he had to pretend to be that "dumb prince" again. Because of this, Yuan Heng was unhappy for a while.

Because Feng Ge's identity was unknown, he had no choice but to go to the other courtyard of Huo's family. It was his first visit to Daqi's capital, so he was very curious about everything, but he hoped to be more unrestrained, so that he could go wandering around the capital, so he didn't live in the palace. And as he wished.

Xie Xun had already uploaded a report in Liangzhou, praising Yuan Heng for his virtuousness and benevolence, for successfully completing the mission of disaster relief. The number of displaced people in Liangzhou has been greatly reduced, and the famine situation has been greatly alleviated.Later, Emperor Zhang Wu listened to Yuan Heng's report, and he was also very happy, and praised him greatly, and planned to make Yuan Heng king in advance when he planned to choose a date.

"Look, Li'er, my father is going to make me king. If I'm still dumb, what am I supposed to do? Why don't you let me 'restore' my ability to speak?" When the lights were on, the husband and wife were talking under the light.Yuan Heng sat beside Yu Li, deliberately getting close to Yu Li who was writing.

Yuli's hand paused, but he didn't stop writing, and said: "Your reputation among the people has risen greatly, and the emperor also values ​​you. The crown prince regards you as a thorn in the side, how can you recover the ability to speak? If this is the case, Maybe the prince is even more anxious to get rid of you."

"What are you afraid of him for? I'm not afraid of him!" Yuan Heng snorted disdainfully, "That idiot of his, isn't it just those tricks? And he also likes men. As long as he has this trick, he won't be able to find out about me. Palm."

Yuli glanced at him, saw that he was full of ambition, couldn't help but smiled softly: "He's not really that stupid, when you go to expose his faults, how can you deal with him so easily? Besides, I think, Instead of us dealing with the crown prince, it is better for us to divert the disaster and let King Jing deal with the crown prince."

"Li'er, you are right." Yuan Heng couldn't help but put his body on Yu Li's body again, leaning on him as if he had no bones, "But I really want to talk, I don't want to be dumb anymore... "

"You've endured it for so many years, you might as well endure it for a few more years..." Yu Li patted him on the head as if comforting a puppy, "If you can't bear it, you will make a big mess, don't make trouble, concubine mother I won't agree either."

"Hmph!" Yuan Heng turned his head like losing his temper, "Li Er, you don't like me anymore!"

Yuli: ...

"Well, I don't like you anymore, don't sleep with me tonight."

When Yuan Heng heard this, he hurriedly hugged his waist, with a flattering smile on his face: "Oh no, I know Li'er likes me the most, so I'll sleep with you tonight... Li'er, your hands are cold and your feet are cold , wait until I warm you up so you won't be cold."

Yu Li couldn't help but let out a "puchi" laugh, and said, "I haven't been back to Yu Mansion for more than two months. I'm going back to Yu Mansion tomorrow. Do you want to come back with me?"

"Go! Of course we want to go!" Yuan Heng said quickly, "We went to Liangzhou after we got married, and we never went back with you. No matter what, it is your 'natal home' after all. Letting you go back alone is like What does it look like?" After thinking for a while, he said, "I'm a new 'son-in-law' coming home, so I have to prepare a little gift."

"Gifts don't need to be too eye-catching, ordinary things are fine." Yu Li knows that gift-giving is also very particular. If Yuan Heng doesn't give it, or if it's too shabby, it's inevitable that people will say behind his back that he doesn't understand etiquette, but give it well. If it is too expensive, it will also attract criticism. After all, his father is also a courtier, so it is not good to be too out of line.

"I can save it, so don't worry." Yuan Heng said, he stood up and was about to prepare, "Since I'm going back tomorrow morning, I'll let someone prepare it now."

"Okay." Yu Li watched him go out, then put down his pen, walked to the door, and cried out to Wu Yeti, who was guarding the door outside, "Wu Yeti, help me call the person who is following His Highness today, I have something to ask. "

"Yes."

After a while, the servant who often served Yuan Heng came in, wiped the inkstone, respectfully saluted Yu Li who was writing, and said:

"I have seen the princess."

"En." Yu Li looked up at him, then lowered his head, still writing slowly, "Where did you go with your highness today?"

Qian Yan hesitated for a moment, as if considering whether to reveal Yuan Heng's whereabouts to Yu Li.

"Huh?" Yu Li raised his head, his eyes turned slightly cold, "His Royal Highness and I are husband and wife, is it possible that I will still harm him?" Seeing that he still had his head down, he said again, "Your Highness Believe me or you? Are you really willing to offend me rather than say anything?"

Wiping Yan was silent for a while, and finally said: "Today, His Highness went to His Majesty's Ziwei Palace, and also went to Qingtong Academy."

"Have you met anyone before?"

"I haven't seen anyone." After thinking for a while, as if he had thought of something, he said truthfully, "However, when we were in Qingtong Academy, His Highness heard two people talking about you and His Highness behind his back..."

Yu Li raised his heart and said, "Oh? What are you talking about me and Your Highness?"

"Actually, they're all gossiping, and those two are also talkative." Wiping Yan said with some injustice in his tone, "Those two were talking about your Highness's achievements in disaster relief in Liangzhou. One said you were lucky, and the other married you. His Highness is about to be promoted to Princess, and another person said, said..."

"What?" Yu Li's voice raised a little.

Wiping Yan glanced at Yuli cautiously, and said: "Say... say you are unlucky, married a man, and are still dumb..." He said, and quickly said, "You don't have to listen to their concubine. Gossip, although His Highness is a man and can't speak, he really treats you with sincerity, went to Qingtong Academy today, and greeted Duke Qi for you..."

"Okay, I got it." Yu Li waved his hand to let the inkstone back down.

Seeing this, he went down respectfully.

Yuli sat alone under the lamp, thinking about it, couldn't help laughing... He said, Yuan Heng has acted as a dumb person for so many years, how could he suddenly not want to play "dumb"? Gossip... Presumably Yuan Heng felt that the fact that he was dumb made him ashamed in front of other people, right?

This man is really...

Yu Li smiled and shook her head, but her eyes were full of tenderness and sweetness.
