The emperor was discussing military expenditure with several ministers, and it took so long that he forgot about the progress of summoning Lord Sima to report and repair the book.

He didn't think about it until the matter was almost finished, and saw Liu Sheng hesitated at the door, so he said, "I asked Sima Pu to announce it, did he keep him waiting for a long time?"

Liu Sheng bowed to the emperor and whispered a few words. Although the emperor's calm face showed no special expression, he immediately asked the adults in the study to follow today's discussion, and then let them go .

Several adults came out after retiring, and saw Sima Pu and Ji Heng waiting above Danchi in the sunny field outside.

Although it's only March, the sun is already a bit strong, not to mention it's almost noon, so standing in the sun is actually quite uncomfortable.

Ji Heng is a well-known figure in the government and the public. These adults all know him, but Ji Heng has been on sick leave for ten months, and these adults haven't seen him for so long.

Everyone has to admire a few words in their hearts, whose young man is so romantic.

Ji Heng followed Lord Sima and greeted these adults, and when the adults left, Eunuch Liu invited them in.

The emperor sat on the dragon chair for too long, got up and walked back and forth in the study, saw Ji Heng coming in with Sima Pu, Sima Pu fell down and was about to kneel down, and so did Ji Heng, so the emperor immediately said, "Just Please forgive me. I have kept Lord Sima waiting for a long time."

Sima Pu knelt and bowed according to the etiquette, and said that waiting is the duty of a courtier, and Ji Heng followed suit.

Seeing that Ji Heng's face was reddened by the sun, the emperor couldn't help but feel distressed when he thought that he had stood in the sun for a long time after he had just confinement. Show more intimacy.

So he quickly asked Lord Sima a few questions, and Lord Sima answered in an orderly manner, and he said, "I see, that's it. Lord Sima go back first, I have something to say about Ji Heng."

Those ambiguous affairs between Ji Heng and the emperor were well known in the government and the public, and Lord Sima naturally knew about it, but he didn't show any bad thoughts on his expression, so he retired in a polite manner.

As soon as Lord Sima took his leave, the emperor who was standing by the side of the dragon case stepped forward, grabbed the hand of Ji Heng who was standing bowed below, and said, "How are you these days?"

Ji Heng looked up at him and said, "There is nothing wrong."

The emperor said, "I haven't announced you into the palace for the past few days. One is that I am busy with work, and the other is that I want you to rest at home."

Although Ji Heng looked solemn, he was also gentle, and said in a low voice, "I don't mean to blame you."

This soft voice, heard in the emperor's ears, was naturally a whisper between lovers. Besides, Ji Heng really meant this, so the emperor was overjoyed, and regardless of the occasion, anyway, there was no one else in the study, so he hugged him directly. kissed Ji Heng, and kissed him on the cheek.

Ji Heng's face was tanned by Chunyang, and it was warm. The emperor was very satisfied with the kiss, but Ji Heng pushed him away and took a step back, saying, "Your point is important."

The emperor laughed lowly, pulled Ji Heng to one side of the chair and sat down. Outside, Liu Sheng saw that there were only two people left in the room, so naturally he didn't dare to enter without permission, so he greeted outside, "Your Majesty, servants come in to exchange tea."

The emperor responded, and Liu Sheng personally brought the tea for the two of them in. He lowered his head and glanced at the two of them slightly, only to see that the emperor was holding Ji Heng's hand, leaning over to look at him with undisguised eyes. Ji Heng's expression was calm and upright, no different from usual.

But since Ji Heng accepted the emperor pulling him like this, it can be seen that the two are really on good terms.

Liu Sheng thought, sincerity is the key to gold and stone, and the emperor is the king of the emperor. If you treat Ji Heng like that, Ji Heng is a stone, and he should be turned away, let alone just an individual.

When Liu Sheng was about to retreat, the emperor stopped him and said, "I command you to go down, I will go back to Qilin Hall for lunch, and I want to stay Ji Aiqing for lunch."

Liu Sheng understood the meaning of the emperor, and then retreated respectfully after he agreed.

There were only two people left in the room, so the emperor leaned his body closer to Ji Heng, looked at him softly, and said, "Why do you go back to the Imperial Academy to be on duty as soon as you return to the mansion, and then take good care of him?" Your body is fine."

Ji Heng had a slight smile on his face, and he didn't avoid the emperor, saying, "I've been at home, since last year, the only people I've seen are those few people, and if I don't go out again, I won't know how to deal with people."

The emperor laughed, held his hand and kissed it on his lips, and said, "You're thirsty. I'll bring you tea."

Ji Heng was indeed thirsty, how could he not be thirsty after basking in the sun for so long.

The emperor gave him two cups of tea, and seeing that he drank them all, he knew that he was extremely thirsty, so he said, "Why didn't you say you were thirsty earlier."

Then he asked Liu Sheng to bring tea in.

The two talked softly and in a low voice, and Liu Sheng brought tea in again. Although the two did not make any intimate movements, Liu Sheng still felt that the room was filled with an indescribable ambiguous atmosphere. Now he was really convinced of the two people It's good, His Majesty the Emperor has succeeded.

He quietly backed out, and the emperor gave Ji Heng the new tea, but the tea was too hot, so he carefully blew on the tea before giving it to Ji Heng.

After drinking tea, Ji Heng asked, "I heard that Qi'er cried a lot when she first entered the palace, these days are better."

The emperor nodded, "When I first entered the palace, I was afraid that I couldn't get used to it, so I was crying, but now it's much better. But he often turns his eyes to look around, as if he was looking for something, maybe he was looking for you and your wife."

Hearing what he said, Ji Heng's nose felt a little sour for some reason, so he quickly stopped the soreness and said, "Then I want to go see him."

Ji Heng and the emperor spoke very casually, and the emperor listened very comfortably, thinking that Ji Heng must have his own heart, got up and said, "In that case, let's go back to the Qilin Palace now."

It is only a hundred meters from Qinzheng Hall to Qilin Hall, just along the corridor.

The emperor did not sit in the palace sedan chair, and walked back to the Qilin Hall with Ji Heng.

He walked in front, Ji Heng was a little slower and he walked half a step behind him, the two of them whispered all the way, and followed the servant and guard after a few steps.

In March, the sun was shining brightly, with green trees and red flowers, the vegetation in the palace was flourishing, and there were even birds chirping. The emperor was dressed in a ochre-colored uniform, with a slender and tall figure. , tall and tall, with gentle faces and a smile, the breeze blowing the sleeves of the two people, it is this beautiful spring that is not as good as the two of them.

Concubine Xian came from the harem to ask to see the emperor, and watched the two go to the Qilin Hall from a distance, she stood there in a daze, and did not move any more.

The female officer next to her, Luping, asked in a low voice, "The emperor has returned to the Qilin Hall, empress, do you want to go directly to the Qilin Hall to ask for an audience?"

Concubine Xian has been free since the death of the eldest prince Yang Fengxi, even though she has recovered from imprisonment, and even her rank has not been lowered, but she has been ill for two months, and her spirit is no longer as good as before.

After so many months of raising her, she is still emaciated, with the delicate and beautiful appearance of a weak willow and Fufeng.

Her eyes were a little dazed, and she seemed to have nothing to ask for, and it took a long time before she returned to the female officer and said, "No, let's go back."

The green screen responded, and said, "The emperor brought His Highness the Second Prince back from outside the palace, so he will miss the First Prince less. Your Majesty asked Director Liu to help the Emperor to go to Zhenguo Temple to do something for the First Prince." The emperor will not reply to the matter."

Concubine Xian glanced at her and said, "Don't talk about the emperor."

The green screen hastily apologized and dared not speak again.

After returning to Duanyang Palace, the concubine Xian fell silent, and she couldn't even eat her lunch. The green screen persuaded her, "Your Majesty, you can eat more. The eldest prince is gone. Your health is important, Madam, and you will have your own children in the future." , it’s fine if you don’t.”

Concubine Xian shook her head and said nothing, she recalled the scene when she saw the emperor and Ji Heng together from afar just now, she thought that the emperor favored her younger brother, so in order to avoid the embarrassment of siblings working together, it is unlikely that she would touch her of.

I only hate that the eldest prince is really gone.

She said, "Both Concubine Tai and Concubine Shao went to see the Second Prince, but were stopped outside the Qilin Hall. Afterwards, Concubine Tai told the Emperor. Have you heard what the Emperor said at that time?"

The green screen said, "It's getting harder and harder to find out what happened with the emperor. But after seeing the concubine, she went back angrily, and there was no movement for several days. I think the emperor refused her to visit the second prince. Concubine Shao is now leading the harem to visit The second prince was blocked, but she was good-natured, and she didn't say anything afterwards. It was just that people sent a lot of good things to the second prince, but I heard that the emperor sealed it up and didn't let it be used. "

Concubine Xian nodded and said, "Didn't the emperor say who the second prince will raise?"

Luping shook his head, "I didn't hear anything about it. When I went to find Manager Liu, Manager Liu just shook his head."

Concubine Xian said again, "Didn't the courtiers say that the emperor would let the emperor draft again? What about this matter?"

Luping smiled and said, "Because the emperor came back with the second prince in his arms, he refuted the courtiers who made suggestions, saying that now is the time to use troops in the southeast to fight against pirates, and it is time to be frugal, and the selection is troublesome, so let it be."

Concubine Xian thought to herself that the emperor likes men, so what's the use of choosing a beautiful girl to enter the palace.But after all, he was curious about who the second prince's biological mother was, so he asked again, "People inside and outside the palace are trying to find out who the second prince's biological mother is. I don't know if there are any rumors."

The green screen said, "It's mostly false rumors. According to the servants, it was the emperor who went out of the palace in micro-clothes to have a good time with someone. The other party had a child and knew the identity of the emperor. He was a little delusional. Instead, he offended the emperor. He only brought the child back and dealt with it." Without that mother, it is possible."

In fact, Concubine Xian also had the same opinion. With the emperor's temperament, he liked to dote on Concubine Xu so much at the beginning, but he didn't keep Concubine Xu. It can be seen that the emperor has no pity for women at all.

If the women outside the palace had delusions about giving birth to a prince, the emperor would definitely not be lenient.

It's just that seeing the emperor taking Ji Heng to the Qilin Palace just now made Concubine Xian feel puzzled. It is said that the emperor is so obsessed with Ji Heng, and the two people they saw today are very affectionate, so how could they bring Ji Heng to see the newly brought back prince? Woolen cloth.
