Crossing the East Palace

Tang Luojin left from Duke Xinguo's mansion and went straight back to the palace.

Although he originally planned to go to Qing Huan's place, but because of Ning Junchi's incident, he had no intention of going to Qing Huan's place.

For him, on the one hand, Qing Huan is someone he trusts, otherwise, he would not be able to fall asleep peacefully listening to the sound of Qing Huan's piano; on the other hand, Qing Huan is in charge of his brothel, a brothel , although many people know that these two flower houses are owned by him, but after all, they can't stand the good business of the two flower houses. Many people are willing to come, and the girls and young men in the flower houses know a lot of news.What's more, there are still many people who came here on purpose just because they knew that the place was opened by the prince.

Qing Huan has long been an indispensable right-hand man to him.

When he went to see Qing Huan, he also wanted to know some private news about Chang'an City from Qing Huan.

But, forget it today.

After being teased by Ning Junchi's phone calls, Tang Luojin is now in no mood to see Qing Huan again.

What he wanted to find out more now was what was going on with Emperor Tianyuan's body.Master Baiye once said that when a foreign star comes into the world, he will ascend the throne in advance.So, he ascended the throne ahead of schedule, so what about Emperor Tianyuan?

Is Emperor Tianyuan's health really getting worse?

What did the Twelve Princes do to make Emperor Tianyuan's health unwell?

Tang Luojin was not in the mood for dinner today, but picked up a pen to write.

It took me an hour to write it.

The crescent moon outside climbed to the highest point.

"Your Highness, let's eat something." Xiaojing saw Tang Luojin put down his pen and looked out of the window, and immediately advised, "If you don't eat, won't you be able to cheer up and go to court tomorrow? The slave has heard about it." , Those grown-ups who went to court are all very powerful, aren't they still fighting in the palace today?"

So, in order to have the strength to fight at that time, your Highness, you should use some things, right?

Tang Luojin had followed him along the trails and Changqu for too long. Even when they went to the border, the two of them gritted their teeth and followed him. They practiced every day like ordinary soldiers, and they had to bear the strange eyes of some people.Tang Luojin naturally trusted the two of them.

"Forget it, let the kitchen bring some easy-to-digest things. After eating and bathing, it's time to go to bed." Tang Luojin glanced at the water basin at the door, and hurriedly touched the water temperature outside the basin , Seeing that it was just right, he held the water basin and asked Tang Luojin to wash his hands.

Long Channel: "Slave is going now." After running out for a while, he turned back again, "Your Highness, Aunt Yu is kneeling outside begging to see you."

Tang Luojin was wiping her hands, when she heard this, she narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "Let her in."

Chang Qu went to ask people not to mention it, and when he sent the people in, he went to the kitchen in a hurry to choose some things for the prince, let the kitchen make them, and brought them to the prince.

When Aunt Yu entered the door, she was quite trembling.

"Your Highness." Aunt Yu knelt at the door and kowtowed her head several times before she said tremblingly, "I have seen the empress. I also said that I want to serve the empress. It's just that the empress has disliked the empress for many years. I haven't done this job of serving people, so I don't want my slaves to serve her anymore, so I kicked out the slaves."

Tang Luojin was sitting idle on the couch, casually flipping through a book, and said, "Is your mother really saying that?"

Aunt Yu lay her head on the ground, and said: "Yes, that's what your mother said. She said that the servant girl is much clumsier than before. If the servant girl serves her by her side again, I'm afraid she will be handed over by the servant girl if she is not sick. I'm out of breath."

Tang Luojin was noncommittal when she heard the words, and just read the book blindly.

When the meal arrived in the kitchen, Changqu invited him to eat, Tang Luojin stood up, walked in front of Aunt Yu, and said slowly: "My mother thinks you are clumsy, then, aunt will learn the palace rules again. Once you have learned the palace rules, you can continue to serve the queen mother."

"Your Highness—"

Tang Luojin ignored her and left.

Chang Qu waited for Tang Luojin to leave, and then flirted with the path behind him.

Seeing that the prince had already left, Xiao Jing suddenly raised his foot, and kicked hard on the aunt's heart - this kick, he didn't hold back at all.

Aunt Yu screamed and was thrown to the ground.

"you……"

"What are you?" Xiaojing let out a "bah" and said, "Do you really think that you are still capable of negotiating terms with His Highness? No matter what happened back then, in Fujian, I went everywhere to look for oleanders and went to His Highness's room. Let it go, if you want to close the doors and windows, let the oleanders bloom beside His Highness every day, and make His Highness feel drowsy, despondent and even stupid due to the poison of the oleanders, isn't it you, Auntie? Is it?"

Aunt Yu's face turned pale.

"Your Highness was only three years old at the time, and my aunt dared to do such a thing. Even if someone instigated her, my aunt's heart must have been made of ice-wrapped stones!" Xiaojing sneered, "Auntie thought that all these years, Your Highness Why don't you move? That's because my aunt is still useful. But now... Auntie, what use is there for you? If you are useless, then His Highness won't settle the score with you, and won't blame your fault on the two of you For my nephew, you are only asked to serve the empress and show filial piety for His Royal Highness, so why don't you refuse, aunt?"

Aunt Yu's face was pale and she couldn't say a word.

"Or," Xiao Jing suddenly said, "Girl is in a hurry to leave the palace, what promise did the empress make you? What did you do for her, and then she let aunt's mother out of the Ning family?"

Aunt Yu stared blankly at the path.

Xiao Jing has already imitated the expressionless look of his highness and said: "Auntie, don't be delusional. Our family will choose a strict aunt in the East Palace for aunt, so that I can teach aunt a little bit, and then send aunt to Mingshui Palace. From now on, you can't leave for half a step, so you can serve the empress!"

Aunt Yu expected too much, and in the end she had no choice but to follow the Tao.

However, although the queen asked her to do things, she didn't put all her hopes on her alone.

During this day and night, the former Ning Yue'er and today's Concubine Xian were in her room, ordering several singers to sing in pairs in her room, since they moved in yesterday, they didn't leave until evening. The queen has not been able to sleep all day and night.

Not only did she not sleep, but Ning Yue'er was bold enough to let Ning Yue'er let someone serve the meal prescribed by the queen from the imperial dining room until it was thoroughly cooled.

Has the queen ever suffered such grievances?Even a bite of food is useless.

Ning Yue'er was not annoyed, and went with the queen.

Therefore, the empress was hungry and sleepy at the moment, but she didn't dare to rest at all, instead she strained her eyelids, as if she was waiting for something.

"Second miss."

A maid came in quietly.

The queen opened her eyes and said hoarsely, "What's the matter?"

The palace lady knelt down: "As you ordered, our people have taken refuge in the two princes. The two princes may not believe anything else, but with these people, they dare to compete with that one. .”

The queen asked: "It's really done? Then, can people arrange it? No matter what, I should give him a child."

The maid bowed her head and said, "Those two princes and the young master also think so."

The relationship between a man and a man is different from the relationship between a man and a woman.

If Ning Junchi really likes Tang Luojin and wants to "be a couple forever", then Ning Junchi simply cannot tolerate Tang Luojin having relationships with other women or even having children.

Even, it is not only intolerable, but also very likely to turn against each other.

"Heh!" The queen opened her eyes, laughed "hehe" a few times, and then said, "Okay, okay, okay!"

The maid waited for a while before leaving.

No matter what the queen's temperament is, whether it is good or bad, whether she has done a lot of evil and deserved it, or she is being plotted and innocently victimized, she doesn't need to care.

All she needs to know is that the queen is from the Ning family.And the master she is obeying now wants her to obey the queen's order, so that's enough.

Tang Luojin originally thought that he might have a few days to think about what Ning Junchi said to him, and why his ears would be hot and warm when Ning Junchi approached him.

It's a pity that now it's just September, which is the autumn harvest time. Several counties with large production in Datang have suffered from locust plagues one after another, causing heavy losses.

The imperial court was immediately busy with this matter. Emperor Tianyuan wanted to appease the people and open warehouses for food relief, but also had to find ways to select officials who were not or less corrupt to go to various places to inspect the opening of food warehouses, and to prevent epidemics, etc. , all of a sudden, how to get busy?Tang Luojin was naturally caught by him.The father and son and the court officials had been busy for nearly half a month, and then they had some free time to rest.

Emperor Tianyuan then left Tang Luojin to eat.

Tang Luojin thought for a while, and asked someone to bring up a plate of dishes and steamed stuffed buns from the East Palace.

Emperor Tianyuan thought that Tang Luojin was trying to show his filial piety. Looking at the meat in the dish, he didn't seem familiar with it. He assumed that Tang Luojin had found it in a border area, so he tasted it without hesitation.

"Not bad!" Emperor Tianyuan praised, "This meat is strong and fresh. What kind of animal meat is it? I never tasted it before."

Tang Luojin: "Fried locusts."

Emperor Tianyuan: "..."

"My son asked someone to chop the locusts into pieces so that they couldn't recognize what kind of meat they were, so they fried them again." Tang Luojin added, "So father can't tell what kind of meat it is."

Then he handed another bun to Emperor Tianyuan: "This is a bun stuffed with locusts, and it tastes good too. Father, try it?"

"..." Emperor Tianyuan gritted his teeth and tasted it. He felt that the taste was really good, and sighed, "Very good. Is there any extra vegetables and steamed buns at Xiaoqi's place? Send them to the queen mother for me. In a few days, the queen mother It's time for the banquet, and the locust-stuffed vegetables and buns should be served."

Today, there are too many people suffering from locust plagues. Although the large-scale locust plague has passed, there are still many locusts in the fields.If you can add a dish of locusts to the table of the dignitaries and give the common people a chance to make money, although it will not cure the root cause, but it can treat the symptoms, it is already considered good.

Tang Luojin naturally said yes.The father and son said a few more words about the locust plague, and then they ate with peace of mind.

On September [-]th, on this day, after the morning court, Emperor Tianyuan stayed Tang Luojin to handle government affairs until noon, and was about to stay Tang Luojin for lunch.

Tang Luojin declined for the first time: "Father, my son is going out of the city today, if he doesn't go, he won't be able to come back today."

Emperor Tianyuan was startled, and then remembered that today is the anniversary of Miss Jiang's death.
