I am His Majesty's favorite

Naturally, the square brocade box was not delivered to Mu Chen in the end.

According to what Eunuch Zhou De saw with his own eyes, as well as the hesitation and various modal particles, the version Lin Heng heard is as follows.

Not only did His Royal Highness close the palace gate, but he also found copper water from somewhere, and completely poured the keyhole of the gate of Chiqing Palace to death.

Da has a posture that, as His Majesty wished, he will never leave Chiqing Palace for half a step.

Lin Heng thought of the time when the Huaibei monarch caught the prince in trouble and imprisoned him.

At that time, Mu Zhen directly dismantled the door of his house and used it as firewood for heating, which caused the old monarch to almost send a Dali Temple Minister to ask on the spot how the emperor should be punished for killing his son by mistake.

And now it's so peaceful...

It was quite unexpected.

Of course, this kind of act of killing eight hundred enemies and harming one thousand can be regarded as safe.

Lin Heng originally thought that he would hear the news that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince broke down the door with bare hands, or came to duel with a sterling silver cauldron.

However, Mu Chi just sealed the exit, not even the big movement in Chiqing Palace was heard.

This somewhat made the current monarch of Nan Chan a little suspicious.

"Hey!" The booklet on the case table was lifted up suddenly, and it landed quite precisely, hitting Lin Heng's half-hanging penholder.

"Did you hear what I just said?"

His Majesty the Emperor hesitated, very frankly: "No."

The man snorted and laughed when he heard that, his ink-like hair was scattered around his shoulders, he casually lifted a strand of it, and wrapped it lightly around his fingertips.

"Tsk tsk, it seems that your majesty has changed a lot during the month I've been away. What's the matter? With the beauty by your side, why don't you have the heart to wander south?"

Lin Heng frowned, gouged out a look, but didn't have much intention to intimidate people.

"If you are free, why not take stock of the battle damage for Gu. The Xichuan army is good at guerrilla lurking, even if it loses its vitality, it will come back sooner or later. It will be March next year at the latest. A fierce battle before the weather turns warm is inevitable."

The man still smiled and shook his head lazily.

"First, that old thing Ji Huaichen and I have always been at odds. Let me take stock, unless His Majesty wants to witness with his own eyes the scene where hundreds of thousands of Nanchang soldiers collectively tried to persuade them to fight."

"Secondly, the monarch of Xichuan suddenly died of a serious illness. The current lord of Xichuan is the third prince who has just succeeded to the throne. For at least a year, the Xichuan army will not dare to approach the Nanchang border for a hundred miles."

Lin Heng didn't know anything about the latter, a trace of surprise flashed across his face, and he quickly returned to a calm expression.

The man's eyes were bright and kind, and he narrowed his long and narrow eyes and said. "Five days ago, I sent back the latest news via Feige. Obviously, His Majesty's dereliction of duty did not stop at 01:30, huh?"

Being caught straight, Lin Heng's lips twitched for a while, but he still tried his best to look like a monarch. "Gu has been busy with government affairs recently, and there are many things that I can't take care of."

The laughter of the man sitting on the side became clearer.

"Your Majesty's so-called government affairs are all kinds of busy affairs that take the Huaibei prince as the center and a five-kilometer radius as the diameter?"

Sure enough, Lin Heng's eyes were a little sharper this time. "Lian Xi Zhuo!"

Suddenly being reprimanded by the full name, the man did not show any restraint, but his face was still full of joy. "It's just a joke, why bother to get angry. By the way, I have some news here, do you want to hear it, Your Majesty?"

Lian Xizhuo's temperament as a monarch is very understanding, the more important the more relaxed the performance.

Besides, what he can bring up alone like this is probably not something trivial and trivial.

Otherwise, if you go to Xichuan on this trip, you won't trust him to do such an important task as inquiring about information.

Lin Heng sat upright and waited for a while but no one spoke, so he couldn't help feeling a little anxious. "What's the matter?"

"Your Majesty wants to listen, so it's easy to say, but in theory..." Lian Xizhuo brushed the jade crown, which was inlaid with the dragon eye orb that can only be used by the royal family.

"I haven't seen you for a long time, Your Majesty should call me Little Uncle first, and take care of my hard work outside before asking about serious matters?"

Mu Zhen, who was far away in Chiqing Palace and locked the door, heard that there was a new person in the palace when he was halfway through breakfast.

Ever since they saw the big silver cauldron the day before, Huan Yue and Feng Yang were always on guard against His Highness the Crown Prince's actions such as killing the king.

He followed almost day and night, for fear that he would disappear if he made a wrong eye.

Even though in Nanchan, where martial arts are the most respected, no one can match the martial arts of the monarch, and Mu Chen's slender body may not be able to match him with three moves.

But just looking at the ruthlessness of chopping firewood and felling trees, it is not difficult to make people think that His Royal Highness is in a hurry and there is nothing he can't do.

However, Mu Chen is not noisy, and his mood is stable and his appetite is normal.Except that I took an ax to chop some dead branches last evening, there was nothing unusual.

Fortunately, Lin Heng still had a conscience, and while carrying pots and pans, he did not forget to store a large amount of fruits and vegetables for others.

There are a lot of rare things that are not in season, and they are packaged and stored in the small kitchen of Chiqing Palace.

Anyway, there is no need to worry about eating and drinking. His Royal Highness, after breakfast, roasted by the charcoal brazier by the fire, listening to Yue Yue and gossip.

He was busy picking out the last few cabbages on the plate, and only vaguely heard about Lian Xizhuo's identity.

In terms of blood relationship, this little uncle Lian Xizhuo is worthy of it.

The previous monarch had two regular wives.

At that time, Queen Huixian was just pregnant, and the imperial city was plagued by epidemics.In order to let her give birth smoothly, the old monarch sent her back to her natal family to raise the baby.

I thought that I could avoid this by settling far away, but it's a pity that God is jealous of her beauty.

Queen Huixian not only contracted the epidemic herself, but her parents were also implicated, leaving only her youngest son, who was less than one year old, unattended.

The first emperor's arrogance, extravagance and licentiousness came later. At the beginning, he had a very deep relationship with Queen Huixian, and he was very fond of him.

Before the loved one died, he was always thinking about his younger brother, which made the late emperor refuse to agree.

Immediately after the funeral ceremony, someone was sent to bring Lian Xizhuo to the palace. The food and clothing costs were the same as the prince's, and a civil servant was specially assigned to teach him his homework.

For this younger brother Gu Quan, Xu was the only good deed done by the first emperor during his reign.

Empress Huixian's fragrance disappeared, and Empress Xiaoren ruled the harem in the next year.

Since ancient times, those who have come from behind to treat the children of the predecessors are like a thorn in the flesh. Lian Xizhuo was almost killed by the dove several times without knowing it.

After all, he is not an orthodox prince, no matter how he inherits the throne, it is not his turn.After Empress Xiaoren gave birth to the prince, all her thoughts were turned to fighting openly and secretly with other concubines.

There were constant disputes in the palace, so the old monarch entrusted Lian Xizhuo to Minister Humerus to raise him outside the palace.In the future, if I think of being an idle little prince, I will live up to Queen Huixian's last wish.

As for how Lian Xizhuo became a bully at the age of [-] or [-], and a playboy who was shunned by rich ladies in the imperial city.

Mu Chen really didn't hear clearly.

His focus was not on how outrageous Lian Xizhuo was, he only asked questions leisurely after listening.

"What is the relationship between this prince and General Ji?"

Huanyue paused for peeling the chestnuts, and the red light of the charcoal fire was reflected in the pupils.

"I don't know about this slave, but I heard from the old man in the palace that Lian Dashi grew up in the Ji Mansion, and he and General Ji were childhood sweethearts. We had a close relationship when we were young, but now we fight every time we meet. It’s impossible to fight for the top.”

"Scholar Lian?" Mu Chen frowned.

"Ah, he doesn't like others to call him a prince. Because of his proficiency in literature, His Majesty bestowed the title of Grand Bachelor two years ago."

Wen Chen.

In particular, a bachelor is an official position that sounds very powerful, but in fact it has a lot of people.

Mu Chen didn't care much about it.

General Ji, if you guessed right, he is the one who has teamed up with His Majesty the Emperor and pitched a camp outside Wuyu City, and is rumored to be the one who can block hundreds with one and is extremely brave.

Maybe these two people got acquainted within three years of each other, and he had never heard Lin Heng mention it before.

Given the opportunity.

Better to see it in person.

Huan Yueyan watched the change of cloudy and sunny under the crown prince, and hurriedly handed the peeled chestnuts to comfort him.

Mu Xunxiao didn't move for a long time, sitting by the charcoal fire and eating snacks until now.He glanced at the sweet chestnuts but couldn't whet his appetite, so he simply got up and went to the yard, and continued to tinker with the dead branches he didn't finish chopping yesterday.

Strange to say, since Lin Heng ordered that there will be snow in the near future, even the potted plants for viewing have been prepared for him.

For two consecutive days, the sun was brighter than usual.It's so warm in the sun, it makes people want to move out the bed and take a nap in the warm sunlight.

Anyway, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't take this to heart at all, and there was basically no difference whether he said it with a basis or just casually.

Huanyue only thought that he was bored, so he took a tree branch to vent his anger, and would go into the house when he was tired after a while.

Unexpectedly, when I went to look again after half an hour, the big wooden block that was originally covered with mold and moss was polished into a wooden chair for two or three people to sit on at the same time.Holes are drilled at both ends, and it looks like it is going to be hung.

Sure enough, when he looked up, Feng Yang was hanging on the tree above his head, and stretched out his hands to catch the dangling rope.

The Muzhen people are in a pile of dead branches that have been cut down.

The crescent-colored long satin was tied in a loose knot around the waist, and the rolled-up sleeves exposed half of her fair and bright wrists.

With his movement, the hair slid down the shoulders to the skirt of the clothes, making the face looming.

It was just like this that made him look like a fairy who had just entered the world, even the little bit of fireworks seemed to have not existed in the world before he came.

Huan Yue stared in a daze.

Feng Yang couldn't help jumping down from the tree, complaining while picking up the rope. "Fixed? No matter how you call it, you don't care about anyone."

Huanyue scratched the back of her neck in embarrassment, and said with a grin, "His Royal Highness is too outstanding, I can't move my eyes for some reason."

Mu Xi also chuckled at the side, patted off the dust from the corner of his clothes, and hooked his fingers at him.

"Because I have heard more exaggerated praise than this before, I will not respond to this. Come, the swing made by the prince himself, I will give you the first try."

When it comes to playing, Huanyue is not at all unwilling.

In addition, the swing was made by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince himself, so it is so important that other slaves may not be able to achieve such a blessing after a few lifetimes of cultivation.

Without thinking too much, he saw the swing hanging from his waist and jumped up.

It's a pity that before the corners of his mouth opened again, the person, the wooden chair and the rope fell heavily to the ground.

Supplement, head down, supplement.

In a daze, I heard His Highness the Crown Prince say to Feng Yang seriously: "I should listen to you, then change to a stronger rope next time."
