It was rare to drive once, and hit the palace man in the face again on the spot, Xiao Lizi was very excited, he insisted on driving the ox cart and ran fast, throwing the palace man two ways away.

Ji Chen staggered in the carriage, fainted or not, but felt a little dazzled.

In all fairness, the scenery of the palace is naturally good.

Regardless of the overgrown weeds in the cold palace, the flowers and plants in the imperial garden have been carefully tended, and the Lianyi Pavilion is located near the imperial garden, which means "ripples and blue waves, beautiful scenery of hibiscus".

The White Marble Bridge spans the lake, and the lotus is in bud on the lake. The attic next to it is close to the lake, and the breeze blows through, bringing bursts of flower fragrance.

The outside of the attic is built directly on the lake, and you can see the fish swimming below.

When Ji Chen stepped forward, the case table was already set up in the attic, the old emperor and empress were in the top positions, the crown prince Ji Han sat on the left, and the right was probably reserved for him.

The old emperor's face was still ugly, and he rarely smiled when he saw Ji Chen coming over.

The Empress looked at Ji Chen with burning eyes, but she smiled more tenderly and considerately at the old emperor, with tenderness in her eyes.

Ji Chen couldn't help looking away, the old emperor was about to reach the age of knowing his destiny, but the empress was only 35, plus the old emperor had a wrinkled face and was sick all over, but the empress was still young and well-maintained, the two of them The difference is very obvious.

Not like a husband and wife, but like a father and daughter.

Ji Han, who was drinking at the side, saw Ji Chen, and immediately couldn't drink the wine anymore.

He recalled what happened to him last time when he went to the Leng Palace.

Ji Han couldn't help but move back.

Ji Chen smiled gently at Ji Han, Fat Sheep recovered quickly, and the injury on his forehead was healed.

The empress said calmly, "Since you're here, sit down."

Ji Chen cupped his hands and said, "I haven't thanked you enough for sending someone to invite me. It's just that I care about His Majesty, so I came here in a hurry."

The old emperor nodded, very satisfied with Ji Chen's concern for him.

At this moment, the palace servants hurried in.

The old emperor was also very dissatisfied, "It's even slower than the master, what a shame!"

While talking, the old emperor couldn't help but glanced at the empress. He was vaguely familiar with this palace man, and he clearly belonged to the empress's palace.

The empress held the cup and gritted her teeth, "Come here, drag him out and beat him."

The palace man didn't have time to say a word, so he was dragged out.

There is one less person who spoils the scenery.

Ji Chen looked at the scenery outside, the blue sky and white clouds, and the breeze blowing, it was indeed very beautiful.

The Empress raised her glass first, "Your Majesty has worked hard for many days, and I hope you will rest well."

The emperor snorted coldly, "Then you don't want to plead for that useless brother of yours, but just demote him and let him go, I've already given him a lot of money."

Ji Chen couldn't help but look sideways, it seems that the queen's brother is still helping the queen to make fake accounts or make money from it?

Corruption has become so serious, and they are not dealt with severely?

This has to be replaced by those famous emperors in their history, who either shaved or skinned people.

The Empress Empress begged, and regardless of Ji Chen's presence, she wailed, "Your Majesty, I am just such an elder brother, and I have no other relatives."

Ji Han said from the side: "Yes, father, my cousin is thin—"

"Shut up!" The old emperor was annoyed.

If it wasn't for Ji Han and the queen, would he not deal with it severely?

It's not about the future, it's about the face of the prince's mother family.

However, Ji Han is also stupid. It's too late for others to get involved in these things, but he is lucky enough to charge forward for his cousin.

Ji Chen ate a peanut and tried to persuade him, "Your Majesty, why should you be angry? Presumably, His Highness the Crown Prince doesn't know how much the price is, and His Highness the Crown Prince always values ​​brotherhood."

It's okay not to say, the old emperor became more and more angry when he thought about it, he slapped the table and got up abruptly.

"Look at your brother! You should learn from him to pay attention to things. Besides, your surname is Ji, not Song. Your biological brother is called Ji Chen, not the Song family. Do you have time to pay attention to whether your cousin has lost weight? Why? Let's not look at how much weight your father and I have lost!"

Seeing that the old emperor was really angry, Ji Han didn't dare to speak anymore.

Ji Chen had a gentle face, "Your Majesty, don't be angry, His Royal Highness is also young and ignorant, so he was tricked by outsiders."

"Is he still young? He is [-] this year! A man with [-] crowns, he is still the crown prince, and he has experienced a lot on weekdays. Now he still looks like he hasn't grown up!"

Ji Han gradually realized something was wrong.

The old emperor was very angry, and Ji Chen tried to dissuade him, and what he said seemed to be right, but for some reason, the more Ji Chen persuaded, the more angry the old emperor became, and then continued to accuse him.

This younger brother is too useless, he can't even persuade others, and the emperor is really, isn't it just a trivial matter?Why be so angry.

The queen empress couldn't get in the conversation, she was in a hurry.

Seeing that the time is almost up, Ji Chen accepts it as soon as he sees it.

The Empress hurriedly said, "I have prepared some songs and dances, and I want to present them to Your Majesty."

The old emperor's expression softened slightly, and he nodded reluctantly.

The old emperor still remembers that the first time he and the empress met was when the Song family lady waved her sleeves, which made him lose his heart, and made Jihan the crown prince for her.

Now hearing her mention of singing and dancing, the old emperor thought of the past again, and his original anger gradually eased.

The Jiaofang Division in the palace had already raised a lot of personnel, which were specially used for various royal banquet performances. The maids put on colorful dresses and performed dances.

The rest of the waiters each hold musical instruments and make music for the dance.

"Speaking of which, it's fortunate that the thief sneaked into the Jiaofang Division last time and didn't hurt the second prince." The empress joked, "If the thief wants to assassinate the second prince, there are few people in the Leng Palace, which is a big problem."

"Don't worry, ma'am, His Royal Highness was there at that time," Ji Chen revealed a slight smile.

If Bai Qi is really an assassin, then Ji Chen must have pushed Ji Han out first, and then discussed with Bai Qi, asking him to catch Ji Han and run away quickly.

After all, the status of a prince is much more valuable than that of a cold prince, isn't it?

Faced with the sharpness and dissatisfaction in the Queen's eyes, Ji Chen was extraordinarily calm.

"That's right, I was there at the time, and I brought a lot of eunuchs and maids with me." Ji Han was wrong, but instead looked proud, "I can definitely keep my second brother safe."

The old emperor nodded in relief.

Queen: "..."

She shouldn't have raised her son so innocently.

The last time the Empress saw that Prince Ji Han wanted to design Ji Chen, she didn't pay too much attention, she just wanted to let Ji Han practice with Ji Chen, and learn some tricks and tricks.

As a result, instead of hitting a fly, it almost broke the jade.

The queen was very distressed, and wanted to take revenge immediately, but the nun beside her dissuaded her and told her about history.

Li Ji was also the favorite concubine of Emperor Han Jing, and the eldest son was the prince. However, when Emperor Han Jing was seriously ill, Li Ji was asked to take care of other concubines and children in the future, but Li Ji bluntly refused, and Emperor Han Jing abolished the prince.

No matter how confident the queen is, she feels that the old emperor has deep affection for her, and she will not easily make fun of her son's throne.

The queen could only persuade Ji Han to be more generous, show respect to his brothers and friends, and be sure to accompany the old emperor more.

Now that the timing is not good, she can only put aside this matter temporarily, and occasionally make a little trouble for Ji Chen by taking advantage of stitches.

The maids in front of her were carefully selected by the queen, especially the one who danced in front of Ji Chen was the most beautiful among the maids.

With a frown and a smile, she waved her sleeves and turned around. The maid looked at Ji Chen affectionately, as if she was about to be twisted into Ji Chen's arms when she spun.

Which boy does not admire Ai?The queen was full of confidence, and planned to take this opportunity to put people beside Ji Chen.

Ji Chen glanced at it, expressionless, and continued to eat peanuts.

He could vaguely see that this maid wanted to be by his side.

But the problem is, he likes men...

The wrong gender is the biggest problem.

Ji Chen didn't look at it any more.

He couldn't help but think wildly, if this person were Bai Qi, he might take a closer look... Cough cough cough, Bai Qi is a friend, don't think too much.

The queen watched Ji Chen helplessly, and saw him eating food silently after glancing at him, as if this rare beauty in the world was not as good as a plate of peanuts in front of her.

Is it really Liu Xiahui?Or is it the person she chose?

Can't help but glance to the left, Ji Han is staring at the beauty in front of him with wide eyes.

The queen thought to herself, it seems that her eyesight is fine, but it is Ji Chen who has the problem.

"Queen, queen?" The old emperor looked at the queen with dissatisfaction, and he called her several times before the queen came back to her senses.

The queen quickly recovered her smile, "I was just thinking that His Majesty's birthday is approaching, and I have prepared a bottle of Jade Buddha for His Majesty. I wonder if the second prince has prepared a birthday gift for His Majesty?"

Ji Chen was stunned for a moment.

This……

The peanuts in his hand fell down, rolled forward, and rolled to the side.

In the novel, according to his calculation, the old emperor can live for at most six days.

In memory, the old emperor's birthday is one month later.

So of course he forgot about it.

People who are going to be buried, what birthday do they have?

"It's only half prepared," Ji Chen put down his chopsticks, "I plan to be more detailed this year, so it's still in preparation."

"Really?" the queen said softly, "I thought the second prince forgot to prepare, so I wanted to remind the second prince."

The queen dared to say that the second prince's expression was wrong at that moment, there was definitely something tricky about it!

The old emperor glanced at Ji Chen suspiciously.

He was a very suspicious person, and he didn't have much affection for Ji Chen, but he just wanted to do his duty now.

When he heard the queen's instigation, he half believed it.

Ji Chen thought, you forced me to do this.

Ji Chen got up, "I originally thought that playing a song for His Majesty on the spot and adding some objects would be considered a token of my gratitude, but the objects to be prepared have not been collected yet."

The queen confronted her tit for tat, "Why don't you play a song and listen to it first, it can be considered as a way for us to see and see."

The old emperor also became interested. He was not very familiar with this son before, and he had never seen him play music.

Ji Chen raised his eyebrows, "That's naturally good."

The dancing maids rearranged their formation, ready to dance to the music, but the servants who played the music stepped back one after another, in order not to disturb the second prince's performance.

Ji Chen randomly took a pipa.

If it was another traveler, maybe there would be a song "Yangchun Baixue" to shock the world, but if it was replaced by Ji Chen...

At most, he would use a modern electronic organ to play the song "Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle".

Moreover, he only knows how to play the electronic organ, and doesn't know anything about the rest of the instruments, especially the ancient ones.

It didn't matter to him whether it was a guqin, a zither or a pipa, so he picked one at random, pressed the string hard, then pulled it, and then stroked the four strings casually.

Hiss-!

A harsh and noisy voice sounded.

The maid, who was about to dance with flowers, made a gesture with a gentle smile on her face. She jumped up and fell down accidentally, falling to the ground.

The old emperor spit out the wine immediately, and his brain throbbed.

The queen's flawless smile froze instantly.

Ji Han even trembled, the cup in his hand fell to the ground, and he clutched his chest, as if he had been frightened by something.

Ji Chen didn't have much time to play with musical instruments before, but now that he has it in his hands, he has no choice but to give it a try.

He fiddled with the strings at will, and didn't want to play any tunes. Ji Chen just moved all the moving parts to find his own pleasure.

It's like sawing wood, and it's like scratching the glass with a stone.A large string of notes cannot be connected into a tune, which is even more "refreshing".

Finally, Ji Han couldn't take it anymore, he stood up suddenly, intending to grab the pipa, and said dissatisfiedly, "What are you playing..." Damn it.

Before he finished speaking, he stepped on the peanut, and then rolled out with his feet on his back.

The maid next to her was still shocked by the song, so she didn't have time to stop it immediately.

"My son!" The empress was shocked.

"Pfft!"

"It's bad, His Royal Highness has fallen into the water!" A panic scream came from outside.

The author has something to say:

update earlier today

New idiom explanation:

The lingering sound lingered for three days: After listening to Ji Chen's music, I didn't want to hear any sound for three days, and there was a magic sound constantly echoing in my head.
