The tourist line between the imperial city and Dazhou Mountain opened until ten o'clock at night at the latest. Ye Zhaoling came out from home and got on the last bus before departure.

The minibus wobbled all the way, and finally arrived at the bus stop in front of the palace before twelve o'clock.

The East Palace at night was as quiet as ever, Ye Zhaoling went straight to the bedroom after returning to the palace, not wanting to disturb anyone.

However, as soon as he turned around the rockery, he saw a circle of bamboo curtains surrounding the empty gazebo in the past.A light was on in the curtain, and if you looked carefully, you could still see the figure shaking.

You don't need to think about who is sitting in the pavilion, but the person Ye Zhaoling doesn't want to see at the moment is him.So he pretended he didn't see it, and walked into the hall with a dull head.

Ye Zhaoling stepped up the bluestone steps, and a deliberate clear cough came from the pavilion.It was impossible to turn a blind eye, so he had no choice but to stop, pretending that he had just noticed someone there, and asked the person behind the curtain, "Is Your Highness waiting for me?"

Immediately after the bamboo curtain came Rong Zheng's slow voice: "Which eye of Lord Hou saw that I was waiting for you?"

Ye Zhaoling asked: "Then what are you doing sitting here at night?"

Rong Zheng said straightforwardly: "Such a big pavilion is built in the garden. As the lord of the first palace, why can't I sit still?"

For Rong Zheng's unreasonable words, Ye Zhaoling deeply agreed: "This is very reasonable." After speaking, he yawned and said to Rong Zheng: "Then I'll go back to my room and sleep first, please stay with me."

"stop."

As soon as Ye Zhaoling finished speaking, Rong Zheng's voice came from the pavilion: "Come here."

The tired look on Ye Zhaoling's face disappeared instantly, replaced by a sly smile of success.He sighed with feigned reluctance, turned and walked towards the gazebo.

There was only Rong Zheng in the pavilion, and there was a pot of tea, several plates of pastries and fruits, and two sets of tea sets on a small stone table.When Ye Zhaoling opened the bamboo curtain, Rong Zheng was tuning the guqin.

Ye Zhaoling came to sit down beside Rong Zheng, and said, "I didn't expect His Highness to be able to master the rhythm."

Rong Zheng was very modest this time: "I know a little about superficiality, but I can't play it well."

After finishing speaking, Rong Zheng put Qin aside temporarily, filled the teacup in front of Ye Zhaoling, and pushed a plate of pastries to his hand.

"This is the chestnut cake from Yuchazhai." Ye Zhaoling picked up the chestnut cake and took a bite, the sweet chestnut fragrance immediately spread on the tip of the tongue.

"Why did you think of buying this today?" Ye Zhaoling asked.

"Yan Tian bought it." Rong Zheng picked up the guqin again without changing his expression, and said as if casually mentioning it: "When I was young, whenever I learned a new song, my teacher would buy me chestnuts from outside the palace. cake."

As he said that, Rong Zheng twisted the strings, and continued: "It's a pity that I don't have much talent in this area, and I always play in a mess."

Ye Zhaoling looked down at Rong Zheng's movement of tuning, and asked, "Who is your teacher..."

"Do you know Zhong Yu?" Rong Zheng looked at Ye Zhaoling, and plucked a series of piano sounds on the strings with his fingers casually.

"National teacher?" After the piano sound ended, Ye Zhaoling stuffed the remaining half of the chestnut cake into his mouth, and said vaguely: "The national teacher's dragon can't see the end, I don't have a chance to know his old man, at most Half a colleague."

"I'm still in the same company, I really give myself money." Rong Zheng was worried that Ye Zhaoling would choke, and poured him half a cup of tea: "Before I was five years old, Zhong Yu was my teacher. How about you? Lingjing There are so many younger brothers and sisters, where did your master collect these treasures?"

"Only I was brought up by Master and his old man." Seeing that Rong Zheng bypassed the subject of the national teacher and brought up Master instead, Ye Zhaoling relaxed: "Later he went on a long journey, and the rest of us The stupid things are all picked up by me blind."

Rong Zheng recalled the thorns in Lingjing Media, and couldn't help feeling that there was indeed a problem with Ye Zhaoling's vision for recruiting disciples.

"What kind of person is your master? Why do you rarely hear him mentioned?" Rong Zheng asked.

"It's all happened too long ago." Ye Zhaoling thought of Master, with a nostalgic expression on his face: "He loves to play and make trouble, and he doesn't show up all day long. He is less reliable than Li Qiu."

Rong Zheng originally wanted to ask if his master's surname was Zhong, but after hearing Ye Zhaoling's description, he felt that his worries were unfounded.No matter how you look at it, the character of the national teacher can't be matched with "playful and troublesome".

So he changed the subject without a trace: "I heard from Yan Tian that the successful completion of the laboratory this time is all thanks to you."

Ye Zhaoling picked up the cup and took a sip, and said, "There are so many wild ways of being an internet celebrity. I have more than 2000 million active fans on the whole network, so it's easy to get some news."

Ye Zhaoling amused Rong Zheng with his villainous look: "Look at how proud you are."

"I just mentioned it casually, and it's thanks to Mr. Yan's amazing action." Ye Zhaoling put down his teacup, looked up at Rong Zheng, and said meaningfully: "It's His Highness who manipulates people's hearts, which is really admirable."

Rong Zheng behaved very negatively in the face of negative public opinion this time, Prince Rui couldn't figure out the reason, but Ye Zhaoling knew the reason clearly.

The ins and outs of the whole incident have become clear, and Rong Rong is the mastermind behind the scenes.The empress deliberately fueled the flames, making Rong Zheng's reputation gradually rising, which made her eager to deal with Rong Zheng.

The reason why she killed Fu Yiwen was firstly to attack Rong Zheng's strength most directly, and secondly to create follow-up incidents.But the staff of the Eastern Palace are not useless. After the incident, it is better to say that Rong Rong took the initiative to follow up this shit basin than Rong Rong put it on the prince.

Rong Zheng deliberately allowed his reputation to drop to the bottom, accepting all groundless accusations and abuse.When the truth surfaced and people realized that they had misunderstood and hurt the prince because they didn't understand the truth, this group's guilt and desire to make up for it would make Rong Zheng invincible in the future.

Of course, this is a risky move, and if you are not careful, you will lose everything.

"It's too serious to say that, I'm just following the trend." Rong Zheng glanced at Ye Zhaoling distractedly: "Since you see through it and don't tell it, it shows that you are not a good person."

Ye Zhaoling quickly put on an innocent and harmless appearance, patted his chest, and said with emotion: "The court is dangerous, I have seen it."

A piano with seven strings, the two chatted while drinking tea, and quickly tuned it.Rong Zheng played half of the piece from memory, and asked Ye Zhaoling how the timbre of this piano was.

Ye Zhaoling shook his head after hearing this, and said very blankly that he knew nothing about this.

Rong Zheng was noncommittal when he heard the words, and brought up another matter: "Don't you have my mobile phone number? Why do you contact Yan Tian no matter what happens." Rong Zheng continued without waiting for Ye Zhaoling's answer: "What's going on in the future? , you can try to find me directly."

Ye Zhaoling didn't know what he was thinking, and seemed a little absent-minded. Hearing Rong Zheng's words, he came back to his senses, and repeated the old story with a seemingly joking attitude: "What do I want you to do? I'm rushing to be used by the noble Crown Prince." Send it in two or three words?"

Ye Zhaoling's words made Rong Zheng discover the New World, and he pretended to be surprised and asked, "So you admit that you were angry with me that night?"

Rong Zheng was referring to the night when he just came back from his visit to S city, he sent the attendants from the palace to invite Ye Zhaoling back from the company after three urgings and four invitations.

"How fresh." Ye Zhaoling didn't notice it for a while, and he asked him seriously, but quickly responded: "Then let me ask you, were you jealous that night?"

Rong Zheng didn't have time to think about it, subconsciously denied: "How is it possible."

"That's it." Ye Zhaoling drank the last bit of tea left in the cup and said, "People, don't take yourself too seriously. That's enough, let's go, let's go back."

Rong Zheng and Ye Zhaoling said goodbye in front of their respective doors. Before entering the door, Ye Zhaoling asked the prince like a hooligan if he wanted to sleep with him tonight, but Rong Zheng couldn't let go of the prince's burden for a while, so he refused righteously.

After returning to the room and closing the door, Rong Zheng felt a little regretful.

Just when he was secretly annoyed, the cell phone in his suit pocket rang suddenly.Rong Zheng turned on the screen and found that the message was from Ye Zhaoling.

Ye Zhaoling asked in a text message: [Rong Zheng, do you want to go on a date tomorrow? 】

This piece of information is only ten words long, and each word seems ordinary, but Rong Zheng read it many times as if studying a difficult math problem.

It wasn't until the phone automatically locked the screen that he came back to his senses, hastily turned on the phone again, and replied: [Okay. 】

After sending out a word, Rong Zheng was worried that Ye Zhaoling would misunderstand his indifferent attitude like last time, so he hurriedly sent another emoticon clumsily.

Ye Zhaoling lay on the bed, looking at the naive smiling face in the dialog box, suddenly felt a little dumbfounded.He threw the phone aside, raised his hand to cover his eyes, and cursed in a low voice: "Fool."

With the phone screen turned off and the room returned to darkness, Ye Zhaoling didn't know whether he was scolding himself or Rong Zheng for the "fool" in his mouth.
