Junru Ziqi

"It will be my birthday in a few days. Are you going?" Ye Ziqi asked expectantly, silently making a draft in his heart to persuade Wei Daoran.

"En." Wei Daoran agreed lightly and unexpectedly.

"Hey! Can you...can you go?" Ye Ziqi was taken aback, but immediately reacted, looking at Wei Daoran with sparkling eyes and asked in surprise.

You can't blame Ye Ziqi for being surprised, you must know that Wei Daoran had never attended Ye Ziqi's birthday in the past few times.Although Ye Ziqi is not very concerned about his birthday, but after all, he is a child at heart, and he still hopes to be lively at the banquet.

Seeing Ye Ziqi's dazed look, Wei Daoran slightly raised the corners of his mouth.

That's right, in a few days it will be Leaf Stage's tenth birthday.

This is also a major event in the palace in recent days.And at this time, the emperor would also allow Ye Ziqi to return to the palace.

Originally, Ye Ziqi didn't have much hope to persuade Wei Daoran, but he agreed just like that.You must know that Wei Daoran couldn't be invited to come to the Leaf Stage in the past.

"Also." Wei Daoran felt a little embarrassed, took out something in his hand and said to Ye Ziqi. "Neng, this is for you."

"What is this?" Ye Ziqi tilted his head and asked.

"Your gift." Wei Daoran said pretending to be calm.He stretched out his hand and handed what was in Ye Ziqi's hand.

Ye Ziqi was not polite to Wei Daoran and took what Wei Daoran handed over, he was very curious.

In fact, Wei Daoran also became nervous, staring straight at Ye Ziqi's face, trying to see Ye Ziqi's love for this gift.

Open the black cloth wrapped outside, lying inside is a very simple long dagger.

Unlike ordinary daggers, it is shorter than a knife but longer than a dagger, so let's count it as a dagger.

The dagger has a silver-white dark pattern that looks very old.Leaf stage touched the pattern on it, obviously very interested in this dagger.

Opening the dagger with one hand, Ye Ziqi couldn't help trembling.The cold light is fierce.Different from the simple and simple appearance on the outside, this dagger is not old because of the age, but it is more sharp and bright, with a cold air like the chilling moonlight on the battle field.Really good stuff.

"How did you come here?" Ye Ziqi asked strangely, unable to move his eyes away.

Seeing Ye Ziqi's reaction, Wei Daoran knew that he had delivered the right thing.The rare smile explained to Ye Ziqi: "Father collected this from the frontier battlefield. A few days ago, he sent someone to send it back to the general's mansion. Now I'm giving him to you. Do you like it?" "

"I like it, of course I like it. It's a good weapon, but it's too expensive, will you really give it to me?" Ye Ziqi said so, but tightly clutched the dagger in his hand, it seemed that he liked it tightly.

Anyone who is familiar with the leaf stage knows that the leaf stage likes three things.Beautiful people, beautiful jade and beautiful utensils.As for this treasure, it's no wonder Ye Ziqi couldn't put it down so much.

"That's all right, you must be there on time." Ye Ziqi smiled happily with two small dimples on his face.

In the past, birthday parties during the leaf period were relatively common.The Wangfu also didn't want Ye Ziqi to form the habit of extravagant and wasteful playboys.Therefore, it is generally not advocated to do big things, and the people who come are nothing more than some veterans or Xie family children who have a good relationship with the royal family and the palace.

But this time the leaf stage keenly discovered something different.

Very early on, people came to the palace one after another to visit Ye Ziqi's birthday, but Ye Ziqi seldom saw them. Usually, when they came in a hurry, they were invited into the inner hall for a detailed discussion, and Ye Ziqi generally did not participate in these things. .

In the early morning, the leaf stage was well dressed.She wears small boots of fragrant red sheepskin with pinched gold and cloud red on her feet, and is covered with a thin cloak in a white fox with a big red feather veil, and white pineapple flowers are drawn at the eyebrows to wipe her forehead.The heroic spirit of the brows became more and more prominent, what a handsome young man.

Get up early and have a feast.But at the leaf stage, he found that the people who came were beyond his expectations.

It's not just the old ministers or the Xie family's children who had a good relationship with the royal family in the past.In the banquet hall, the important diners of the Wangfu and the Xie family's diners and close officials gathered together.

They all stepped forward to congratulate with smiles on their faces, but Ye Ziqi could tell that they didn't mean that.

Ordinary birthday parties are also organized with the elderly in mind, and the leaf period is only ten years old, which is not an important time.

Everything is different and must be a monster.

Barely suppress the irritability in my heart.The leaf period politely dealt with the guests coming and going one by one.

This year, not only the banquet is weird, but Ye Zimu is also weird.A few days ago, it was very difficult to see Ye Zimu during the Ye Zi period, and he looked very busy all the time.

Ye Zimu has not been seen until now.

Leaf period is not happy.

Ye Ziqi knew that his elder brother and father must be hiding something from him, but why couldn't he tell him.Ye Zimu didn't know what the purpose was, maybe it was because Ye Ziqi was too young to do well or because he wanted to protect Ye Ziqi, so he was always reluctant to let Ye Ziqi get involved in important events in the family.

The fingertips pinched the palm unconsciously, Ye Ziqi's face flickered.

But the foliage stage was unquestionably successful.He successfully completed the task he was supposed to complete.I saw Ye Ziqi smiling naturally and obediently, shuttling among the guests, with every gesture, no one could find anything wrong.Good-looking people really have an advantage. Although everyone present was full of secrets, they all sighed that the third prince taught his children well.In the past, they only thought that Ye Zimu was a rare child, but he didn't expect that this youngest son is not bad.

Greetings with the past guests and dignitaries one by one, Ye Ziqi was always smiling, either lightly or loudly, very lively.

And the only one who knew that Ye Ziqi was in a bad mood was Lin Zhuo who had been waiting by Ye Ziqi's side all the time.

Looking at Ye Ziqi's smile and happiness, Lin Zhuo frowned slightly.

Taking advantage of the gap, he stepped forward and asked, "Master, are you okay?"

Ye Ziqi smiled instead of anger: "What stupid things are you talking about, today is a happy day for the master, be careful to slap your mouth with the wrong words. By the way...do you know where brother is?"

Ye Ziqi seldom talks to Lin Zhuo like this, so Lin Zhuo knows that Ye Ziqi must be unhappy, but Ye Ziqi will no longer write anger on his face like he did when he was a child.Being in the world is not as arrogant as before, but has learned to restrain the light.

Maybe this is the change.

Lin Zhuo was afraid of making Ye Ziqi unhappy again, so he quickly lowered his head and confessed: "Yes, I'm all slaves, I said something wrong. Please forgive me, but the servants of His Highness don't know where to find them." , today is your birthday, master, no matter what, His Highness will show up, so don't worry too much."

Lin Zhuo was very worried about Ye Ziqi, and wished he could bear all his unhappiness. Unfortunately, the situation was tense recently, and even he felt it. Now he could only do his best to appease Ye Ziqi.

You must know that the leaf stage also needs to be appeased by smooth hair!

"Okay." Ye Ziqi reluctantly accepted Lin Zhuo's words, not so impetuous.

"Master, look quickly, isn't that Master Wei?" Lin Zhuo secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and he had met a savior.

Ye Ziqi turned his head to look, and Wei Daoran was standing in the middle of the crowd, and he didn't know how long he had been here.

Wei Daoran didn't come in a hurry like the others, nor did he approach enthusiastically like the others.He just came quietly, standing in the busiest corner of the crowd, looking at Ye Ziqi with a smile on his lips.The mood in the leaf period seemed to be infected and gradually calmed down.

Stepping forward slowly, Wei Daoran replied softly, "I'm here."

Ye Ziqi didn't smile any more, and just replied softly: "En. I know."

Accompanying Ye Ziqi entertained some guests.Ye Ziqi found some time to rest with Wei Daoran for a while. "You didn't call me earlier when you came. Also, there is a show to watch in the afternoon. You have to go with me anyway, otherwise I will be bored to death." Ye Ziqi Taohua looked at Wei Dao with hope in his eyes. Then she said coquettishly.

What else could Wei Daoran refuse, so he nodded helplessly and followed Ye Ziqi.

The stage troupe invited the best stage troupe in Kyoto, but Ye Ziqi was not interested in watching it while sitting in the stand room.

Ye Zimu, who hadn't appeared all this time, suddenly appeared in the room.Before Leaf Stage could say anything.Ye Zi Mu Xing Chong reached out and handed Ye Ziqi a delicate box.

Seeing Ye Ziqi's puzzled look, Ye Zimu said dotingly: "This is a gift for you. Quickly open it and see what it is. You will definitely like it."

"Brother..." Just when Ye Ziqi wanted to say something.A servant rushed into the room in a hurry, and whispered something in Ye Zimu's ear.

Ye Zimu frowned, turned around and said to Ye Ziqi with a little apology: "I still have something to solve. Ziqi, please watch first. I'll come back later. Lin Zhuo, you too, watch carefully Don't let him get drunk during the leaf period."

The one who comes and goes quickly is Ye Zimu.Ye Ziqi looked at Ye Zimu helplessly, it could be seen that Ye Zimu had been busy for the past few days and hadn't had a good rest, Ye Ziqi didn't want to add trouble to his brother at this time.

Ye Ziqi paused, smiled obediently at Ye Zimu, nodded and said to him, "Well, that's fine. Brother, go get busy first. I'll be with the people in the school later."

Seeing Ye Ziqi's well-behaved appearance, Ye Zimu patted Ye Ziqi's head fondly.Nodding gently towards Wei Daoran to signal him to have fun, Ye Zimu left with his servants.

Leaf stage casually opened the small box in his hand.It turned out to be a jade pendant that Ye Ziqi had mentioned to Ye Zimu before.This piece of spiritual jade is pure white, and the material is hard to come by.I don't know how Ye Zimu managed to get it for Ye Ziqi, but I can see how much Ye Zimu cares about Ye Ziqi.

But the leaf stage just glanced at it with a lack of interest, and put it on the table casually.

Lin Zhuo cleverly helped Ye Ziqi put it away carefully, this thing must not be thrown away, otherwise this little ancestor will regret it to death later.

Lin Zhuo sighed unconsciously, worried about Ye Ziqi.I have been looking forward to my birthday for so long... but this is the only way.

Wei Daoran turned his head to look at Ye Ziqi, sighed and said, "You're not as happy as you look, are you?"

The smile on Ye Ziqi's face gradually faded, and he casually replied, "Why?"

"It's just intuition. Or, it's the expression on your face that tells me."

"Is that so? So what if you're not happy?" Ye Ziqi stood up from his chair like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and shouted viciously at Wei Daoran.

"I don't know. If I knew, I wouldn't be as unhappy as you." Wei Daoran lowered his eyes and murmured softly.

Both are silent.

Ye Ziqi finally broke the silence, and said in a cold tone, "I'm not feeling well, I'll go out first."

Before Wei Daoran could say anything, Ye Ziqi had already slammed the door and left.

"Are you? Ah, Second Highness, why are you here?" Nian Shan, who was on the night shift, was surprised to find that Ye Ziqi, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, was sitting by the small door of the palace where he took him out last time.

Looking at Ye Ziqi who was working blankly by the door, Nian Shan asked strangely: "This...isn't it your birthday today, the Second Highness? Why are you doing it here?".

"Yeah, why am I here." Ye Ziqi twitched the corner of his mouth, but did not answer Nian Shan.

"Quick, it's cooler here at night, I'll take you back. Don't make it easy for everyone to find." Although Nian Shan was strange, he knew how to read his words and didn't say anything more at the moment.

Lowering his head, Ye Ziqi hesitated for a while, after all, he is still a good baby, brother should be anxious after being out for too long.So he nodded and agreed, "Okay, let's go back."

At this moment, Nian Shan was acutely aware of the murderous intent.

I saw the man in black who didn't know where he was hiding suddenly appeared in front of Ye Ziqi, raising his hand to take Ye Ziqi away.

Nian Shan fought backhandedly with the man in black.

Contrary to Ye Ziqi's expectations, Nian Shan's kung fu is very good, and he even fought with the man in black for a long time.

The man in black was a master at first glance, but he didn't kill Ye Ziqi, so Nian Shan protected Ye Ziqi and didn't hurt him.

"Run." Dang Nianshan shouted to Ye Ziqi.Knowing that it would be a burden for him to stay, Ye Ziqi turned around and wanted to run away, but was blocked by the man in black.

The sound of fighting between Nian Shan and the man in black quickly spread to the people in the palace.

Seeing something wrong, the man in black immediately slapped Nian Shan with his backhand, and flew out of the palace with Ye Ziqi in his arms.

Too bad, the Second Highness was kidnapped!
