Zhuangyuan Lang fell down, His Majesty mercifully spared him the inscription on the Yanta Tower, and asked him to go back to Zhuangyuan Mansion to rest.

After returning from Mingyan Pagoda, Xiao Yun changed into his normal clothes and came out. Xie Zhe stood in the bedroom and asked cautiously: "How does His Majesty King Qi plan to deal with it?"

Xiao Yun was amused: "There is nothing to deal with."

He took a wolf hair pen from the case, poked it into the golden wire bird cage hanging on the beam, and played with the colorful birds of crimson, indigo, finch head, ink, and bright yellow.

The bird jumped happily, and squatted on the brush, shaking its head and twitching its beak: "Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and his achievements will surpass the ages!"

"..." The corner of Xie Zhe's mouth twitched slightly.

Xiao Yun looked back at him: "Is it fun? Yin Xianjiao is easy to get, and he is smart."

Yin Xian is the great eunuch next to His Majesty, and he will especially make fun for His Majesty.

"..." Xie Zhe doubted that His Majesty taught the bird himself.

"Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and his achievements will surpass the ages!"

Xie Zhe listened to it again, felt that the words were vaguely familiar, and recalled for a moment: "...Xie Caiqing's test paper?"

"Really?" Xiao Yun said seriously, "I don't remember, you have to ask Yin Xian."

"..." Xie Zhe didn't expose him, but when he looked at His Majesty's colorful new favorite again, the bird face changed into Xie Caiqing's face in a daze.

He really wondered why the emperor, who likes colors, became interested in Xie Caiqing who was all white from head to toe recently.

Xie Zhe did not forget the business, observed his words, and saw that His Majesty seemed to be in a good mood, and asked, "Why didn't Your Majesty deal with King Qi?"

Xiao Yun was about to speak.

"Because your majesty is wise and martial, and his achievements are beyond the ages!"

He laughed happily: "Shut up for me."

The new favorite shrank his neck and hid in the corner of the birdcage.

Xiao Yun was too lazy to put the wolf hair back to its original place. He always threw it away after playing and never cleaned it up. He let it stick in the cage and walked back: "The champion didn't make a sound, why should I punish him?"

"He blasphemed the Holy One."

Xiao Yun smiled: "Which one doesn't blaspheme me in private?"

"..." Xie Zhe secretly scolded Xie Caiqing.

"Speak seriously," Xiao Yun sat back comfortably in front of the case, pulled a piece of rice paper from one side and held it under his eyelids, "Let's not say that the teacher was born without a name, even if the champion said it, I severely punished King Qi, King Qi His old lady didn't make any mistakes, so I can't take the Eldest Princess's house for this matter, can I?"

"It's only natural for a mother to avenge her son. When the time comes, the unlucky one will be the number one scholar. He keeps silent now, but betrays his favor. The eldest princess will thank him secretly when she finds out. I know he has been bullied, but I take care of it." The royal family didn't show their face, and they wanted to reward him secretly to appease him."

Xie Zhe was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly said: "This humble minister is confused."

He still frowned: "Then King Qi, His Majesty is going to let it go? The number one scholar is also very pitiful."

Xiao Yun suppressed a smile: "You are more pitiful."

Xie Zhe: "?"

Xiao Yun tore off a long strip of holes from a good piece of rice paper: "He is having fun, but you think he is pitiful, are you pitiful or is he pitiful?"

Xie Zhe looked bewildered: "... Le?"

Xiao Yun casually pointed to the bookshelf: "You bring me the box on the leftmost side of the third floor over there."

Xie Zhe walked over and found what Xiao Yun said.

"Open it and have a look." Xiao Yun didn't lift his head.

Xie Zhe opened it according to his words, and found that there were more than a dozen small pieces of paper in the box, each of which had his name written on it.

The handwriting is flying and flying, and it is so scribbled that it looks like it was written by the emperor.

Xie Zhe briefly glanced at the name on the paper and was startled.

These are people who have been exiled, beheaded, or even implicated by His Majesty in recent years, and they are basically the names of dead people.

"Your Majesty, this..."

"If I hate someone so much that I don't even bother to type, I will write a piece and put it in the box, and guess what will happen?" Xiao Yun turned to look at him, raised his eyebrows, and smiled lazily.

Xie Zhe's back felt cold.

These people were all once prosperous, but at the beginning they were just arrogant and domineering and overstepped the rules, and His Majesty didn't control them, and soon they made a big mistake and killed themselves.

"...The humble minister is ignorant, it is the humble minister who is pitiful." Xie Zhe blushed in shame.

In the past, he just couldn't figure out His Majesty's mind, why now even Xie Caiqing can't figure it out.

"That's why punishing salary is family, and spanking is love," Xiao Yun said with a smile, "If you want someone's life, you have to let them taste the sweetness first, otherwise it will appear how unreasonable I am, and it is the emperor's sister and the eldest nephew. , how bad it is."

"..." Xie Zhe wanted to laugh and was scared at the same time.

"But to be honest," Xiao Yun was clearly smiling, but there was no smile in his eyes, "I'm not giving them a chance, and I didn't force them to do it, but I know enough is enough for all these years, but I don't have any of them. .”

Xiao Yun clicked his tongue twice.

Xie Zhe was slightly vigilant in his heart, and fortunately he was someone close to the emperor, otherwise he might not even know how he died.

The emperor wrote down the four words "Elder Princess's Mansion" in a fluttering manner on the paper: "Come, come, take care, go far away, and watch me shoot in."

"..." Xie Zhe backed away with the box in both hands.

"Click to the left, click to the right, then to the left, let's go, go back, let's go! Stop! Stop!"

Xie Zhe stopped obediently.

Xiao Yun crumpled the note into a ball, exerted a little force with his fingers, and the small note drew a perfect arc in the air, and fell steadily into the palm-sized box in Xie Zhe's hand.

Xie Zhe was very fortunate that this was not a hunting ground, the emperor was not shooting arrows, and he did not put a date on his head like last time.

……

Xinke Zhuangyuan's Mansion is located at the end of Xi'an Street. Although it is not an expensive place, it can be regarded as a beautiful place. The neighbors are all third- and fourth-rank officials.

Zhuangyuan Lang is now only a sixth-rank Hanlin Academy compiling and writing, and he is not buried in this street. Besides, he has a quiet temperament, and there are not many people coming and going at the door during the day at the end of the street, quiet and leisurely.

Just after setting off the firecrackers, the debris of the firecrackers was still flying all over the sky, and the Zhuangyuan Mansion was decorated with lanterns and festoons, beaming with joy.

Wearing a human skin mask, the concubine happily greeted the servants and ran into the house.

As soon as the little prince came back from the Mingyan Pagoda, he called for water to take a bath, but he didn't come out yet, he always loved cleanliness, and he was slow, as long as he could come out within half an hour, the concubine would not rush him.

Sure enough, it was the same thing, half an hour later, the little prince came out of the house, dressed in a new look, even the waist accessories were matched, only the temples were wet, and there were drops of water dripping from them.

The concubine was training the servants in the living room, and they stood obediently by their hands. When they saw the champion coming, they were about to greet him respectfully, but when they saw his appearance, they were slightly taken aback.

Many girls lowered their heads with blushing faces, their hearts beating fast.

Xie Caiqing said a few words with a three-point smile, and let them go down. Seeing that there was no one in the hall, the concubine immediately started to use a towel to wipe the water on his hair, and asked in a worried voice: " What's the matter? The emperor met you?"

Usually it doesn't take that long to wash.

"King Qi."

The concubine was startled, she still knew about King Qi's deeds: "He didn't bother you much, did he?"

Xie Caiqing shook her head, explaining the ins and outs in a concise manner.

The concubine laughed until her stomach ached: "How do you know that Xiao Yun has come down?"

Xie Caiqing said innocently, "I don't know."

The concubine was taken aback: "You don't know?!"

The concubine remembered that the little prince was not good at martial arts, and his hearing was only at the average level, so it was impossible to know in advance, so she deliberately said that in front of him.

Xie Caiqing said: "Actually, it doesn't matter if Xiao Yun comes down or not. If he doesn't come down, I say that to scare King Qi. If Xiao Yun comes down, then... of course it's better."

Toffee laughed.

Xie Caiqing frowned: "But he doesn't seem to like me very much."

The concubine frowned: "He has come down, didn't he come to save you?"

"I thought so at first."

Xie Caiqing paused, then hooked her sleeve with her little finger.He would do this trick when he was a little embarrassed.

He said calmly: "But I threw myself into his arms deliberately as you taught, and he pushed me away, without any ambiguity."

"..." The concubine was in a complicated mood for a moment.

She has taught the little prince blindly like a living horse doctor, such as accidentally throwing himself into his arms, staring at each other for a long time, then flicking away in a panic, bowing his head, blushing, and apologizing, all done in one go.

There is always a big gap between reality and plan.

"Then why did he take the initiative to carry you on the horse before? Doesn't he hate touching you?"

"I don't know," Jiang Huaichu obviously thought about it while taking a bath, and said thoughtfully, "Maybe I got it wrong that time."

He frowned deeper: "Maybe I stepped on his unknown disgust point, but I don't know what this point is."

While taking a bath, he recalled everything that happened in the Mingyan Pagoda over and over again, but he couldn't figure out where he was wrong.

He is not afraid of making mistakes. As long as it is an action, no matter how thorough the preparation is, he may make mistakes. He is so afraid that he will make a mistake but he does not know where the mistake is and cannot correct it.

He looked slightly sleepy, but he didn't want to infect the concubine with his bad mood, so he said calmly, "It's fine."

"Why don't you take your time?" the concubine said.

Jiang Huaichu shook his head: "I can't wait anymore, it's been half a month, it's too slow, it's definitely too late."

The concubine tried to divert his attention, and smiled: "You can't vent your anger clearly, do you want to ask Ruya to call someone to secretly teach Prince Qi for you? Accidentally bitten by a poisonous insect, does the little prince like it?"

"No, I think he's fine."

The concubine was taken aback for a moment, the words came out of the mouth of the young prince, elegant and gentle, like the most touching and touching words.

Jiang Huaichu blinked: "He was my most natural encounter, the most flawless accident."

Toffee: "..."
