Lord of Rebirth

Chapter 271 The Prince

The prince didn't know about the relationship between the emperor and his father, and he always heard from the prime minister that the prince was taking care of the sick Shen Xi in the palace, so he couldn't meet.

It is true that he never took the initiative to say that he wanted to see the prince before, and even the relationship between the prince and him was not as good as that of the brothers of the Wei family.

But after all, the prince is his uncle. During this year, the emperor was not in the capital, and he did not dare to tell the queen mother about any grievances. Later, he thought that there was still such an uncle, but he couldn't see him all the time. , made him feel very uncomfortable.

Today, I suddenly heard that the emperor's uncle was in the prime minister's mansion, and even Shen Xi was there. The prince thought that Mr. Shen must have finally recovered from his illness, so he was able to walk around outside. Thinking about it, they had been in the capital for a year, but he actually He has never met them, this time he will come to see the emperor no matter what.

After speaking, the crown prince walked up to Shen Xi, saluted, and said, "I wonder if Mr. Shen is in better health?"

Shen Xi who had just come back hadn't figured out what was going on, he glanced at Lu Jufeng, smiled and said: "Thank you for your concern, Prince, it's much better now."

The crown prince nodded, walked in front of Lu Jufeng, and said: "See Prime Minister, I came here without permission, and please prime minister not to blame General Wei."

Wei Zishao, who was standing aside, was a little embarrassed. He was indeed entangled by the crown prince, so he brought it here.I was afraid of getting caught along the way, and I didn't know what to do.

"Don't blame me." Lu Jufeng said hastily, "Since the crown prince has come, why don't you have dinner at Weichen's mansion tonight?"

When the crown prince heard this, he couldn't hide the joy on his face, he quickly saluted and said, "Then disturb the prime minister!"

"Won't bother."

Several people followed the prince to the house, and the servants of the prime minister's mansion rushed to serve all kinds of dishes, but they were not sure what the prince liked to eat, so they hoped that the prince would not be picky eaters.

The prince will be willful at this age, but the relationship of status is not so willful that he will be dissatisfied with the dishes.

It's just that with him around, it's naturally a lot awkward for other people not to drink.

The prince is the crown prince, and the uncle of the prince naturally has to sit in the upper seat, while the prince and others of the younger generation should sit at the small table next to him, but Sun Moyao prefers to fight and sit around and have a lot of fun, so he put the three juniors together. Pulled on the table together.

The brothers of the Wei family used to eat with the prime minister quite often, so they will not be too cautious.

But the crown prince is a little restrained, sitting and eating with the emperor's uncle, it seems that his seniority...

Everyone at dinner was distracted.Here Sun Moyao and Shen Xi held back their words and wanted to say something, while the prime minister and the Wei brothers over there were a little trembling, for fear that they would be spotted by the crown prince if they showed any flaws.And there was a prince in the middle, and he didn't know how to speak.

It was nothing more than the crown prince greeting Shen Xi's body, expressing his admiration for the prince, and saying that the prime minister had really worked hard to help him this year, and he was very grateful to him.

Sun Moyao looked at the crown prince, thinking that this child is young, but he listens to his elders. It seems that he has been exposed to so many things in the past year, and he has exercised a lot.

The prince said to Sun Moyao, "Finally, I can see the emperor's uncle again this year. I wonder if I can go to the palace to look for the emperor's uncle in the future?"

Sun Moyao was startled, and he glanced at Shen Xi.

But Shen Xi nodded at him, and said with a smile: "The crown prince likes the emperor's uncle, that's a good thing. Before, I blamed the poor health of the servants, so I couldn't let the prince come here. Now the servants are in good health, and since the crown prince wants to see the prince, why don't you come here?" Naturally, the prince must be too happy, and didn't answer the prince's words for a while."

"Oh." The crown prince nodded, "Then my nephew will trouble the lord a lot in the future."

Sun Moyao shook his head, "You are my king's nephew, since you call me Uncle Emperor, come if you want. Just let me know before you come, that's good."

The little prince blinked happily, "That's great!"

Because of this promise, the prince looked much better after that than when he came.

But Sun Moyao's heart was a little beating. If the prince wanted to come to him, wouldn't it mean that they would not be able to travel far in the future? !

Shen Xi sat on the side but smiled at him, not knowing what was going on in his mind.

After the meal, Wei Zishao was responsible for sending the prince back, so he took his younger brother and left first.

The prime minister came over to see the prince off with the prince, and said to Shen Xi when he came back, "Actually, the prince is under a lot of pressure these days. The emperor plans to come back only at the end of this year. There are many things that the prince is not happy about. I can only hold back, if I hadn't asked him, he wouldn't have said, sometimes Xiaobao would stay in the palace to accompany the prince, now that I think about it, wasn't my decision a bit unfair to the little prince?"

Shen Xi quickly comforted him, "The little prince will also experience these pressures in the future, and maybe he will thank you for training him now."

"Yes!" Sun Moyao nodded, "And in the final analysis, it was the emperor who found out the matter himself. His son will bear it for him, otherwise we will have to bear it."

"Ahem..." Shen Xi said hastily, "By the way, what did the prince encounter before that made him so stressed? And it's been...a year."

The prime minister said: "It's nothing, it's just that he said something wrong in the hall, which made Yushi Zhongcheng unhappy. The prince is also a little sensitive. Although he should settle the previous feud with Mr. Zhongcheng, he still can't let it go, and he is worried that he will I will not continue to say the wrong thing.”

Shen Xi was a little surprised, "In this respect, he really doesn't look like the emperor at all..."

Lu Jufeng shrugged his shoulders disapprovingly, "It's good to have such a cautious personality. In short, the prince is much better now than before, but he lacks some human touch...it is more important to have family by his side."

Hearing this, Sun Moyao was startled.

He remembered that Shen Xi had said before that the emperor's family was the most affectionate, and there was always less of a family atmosphere between them, so they had to be more careful with their words, let alone have more heart-to-heart with each other.

Leaving aside the prince, I was only a few years old at that time, and my relationship with the current emperor was not harmonious. In Sun Moyao's opinion, I did nothing wrong at that time. Anyway, everyone is like this, and the little prince is like this, so there is nothing strange about it. .

He took a careful look at Shen Xi, and found that Shen Xi didn't respond at all, he was relieved.

Back in the mansion, Lu Jufeng sent someone to arrange a side room for them, and they sat together and chatted for a while.

Lu Jufeng said, "Just now with the prince here, some things are hard to say."

Shen Xi asked, "By the way, apart from the prince, no one should care about whether we are in the palace this year. Then how did you hide it from the prince?"

"I'm sorry, but of course I can only call you sick." Lu Jufeng sighed, "Actually, the prince was not like this before. Since this happened, he has changed a little. The reason why he wants to see you, lord, is because the emperor is not in the palace. Maybe because of this. Wait for me to give the prince a class in a few days, and give me a little enlightenment, maybe the prince will not think about coming to see the prince."

On the contrary, Sun Moyao turned to look at Shen Xi, "Why did you let the prince come to me?"

"It's nothing." Shen Xi smiled, "I thought, we walked outside for a year before, so we should show our faces in the capital to reduce other people's suspicion. And if the witness is the prince, then it is better Anyone needs to be convincing, so it doesn't seem strange for the prince to come to see the emperor's uncle, right?"

When Sun Moyao heard this, he nodded and said, "What you said makes sense... But what if the crown prince suddenly relies on me?"

"Rely on it?"

Lu Jufeng coughed dryly, "My lord, the crown prince may have been in a low mood recently, but after this period of time, he might get better."

Sun Moyao nodded. In fact, if the little prince is in a good mood, as an uncle of the emperor, he should also care about it.

After chatting for a few more words, Lu Jufeng left the room.

And Shen Xi loosened his hair in a bun, rubbed his shoulders, and said, "Is your lord tired? Go to bed earlier?"

But Sun Moyao was still a little awkward in his heart, he walked up and hugged Shen Xi's shoulder, and asked, "Why do you care so much about the prince all of a sudden?"

Shen Xi looked at him, "My lord really wants to know?"

"Why can't I know?"

"I'm afraid to say it...you will think that I have become a bad person."

Sun Moyao was at a loss, "Why..."

Shen Xi said lightly, "Have you forgotten? The person the emperor wants to protect the most is the prince. As long as the prince can safely assume the throne, this is what the emperor wants to do most now. And the reason why the emperor fears you is because Because I am afraid that you will rob the prince of the future. But now if you are close to the prince and the prince likes you very much, what do you think the emperor will think of you?"

Sun Moyao frowned, and said: "Although I understand what you mean, I feel that even if the relationship between me and the prince is as good as that of a father and son, the emperor will still not let me go. It's not that you don't know the emperor... Tut tut..."

"Of course I know." Shen Xi turned around and held Sun Moyao's face in his hands, "But you think, if your relationship with the prince becomes close, when the emperor really troubles you, will the prince speak for you? ? And the emperor likes the prince so much, will he not listen to the prince?"

Sun Moyao was taken aback, he looked at Shen Xi, "I... really didn't expect..."

"Yes..." Shen Xi sighed, "So I think I'm a bit of a bad guy, actually taking advantage of the prince's feelings..."

"Not bad!" Sun Moyao hugged him, "That doesn't count! And you didn't do anything wrong by letting me, the emperor's uncle, care about the prince's mood, right? And it's because I thought it was too simple, you didn't do anything wrong."

"is that so……"

Sun Moyao hugged him tightly, "That's right! Besides, I'm the emperor's uncle, are you still his emperor's aunt? There's nothing wrong with caring about your nephew!"

Hearing this title, Shen Xi couldn't help laughing, but the more he laughed, the more he couldn't hold it back, and he stopped after being hugged by Sun Moyao and put him on the bed.

Shen Xi stroked his hair and said, "We've been walking outside for too long, we should take a break, and we're going to leave in the future, will you accompany me too? So don't worry, just spend time with the prince recently."

Sun Moyao sat beside him and kissed his fingers, "Okay, what you said is right."
