There is a dragon in the backyard of the palace

Qinglong's tiredness is obviously an excuse. He is a Dragon Lord who can travel between heaven and earth, how could he get tired after talking so many words?But the little prince understood that he probably shouldn't stay here any longer.He lowered his head and picked up the bowls, plates, and jugs, then turned his head and went out the door.

He locked the door, and as soon as he walked out of the backyard, he saw the little boy Yunxiu who had always followed him, coming forward, took the food box in his hand, bowed his head and said:

"Master, there are people from the palace, and they are waiting in Lanxue hall right now."

It is a big event for people to come to the palace, the little prince took a deep breath, pulled himself together, and walked towards Luomei Hall, asking Yunxiu:

"When did people come? Who did they come?"

The food box in Yunxiu's hand had already been handed over to someone else, and she followed the little prince step by step. Hearing the little prince's question, she quickly replied:

"I just came, and I was about to report to you, so you came out. The one who came here today is Eunuch Cai. I heard that when he was the crown prince, he was always serving him."

Hearing the unfamiliar name, the little prince frowned:

"Where is the prince?"

"I heard that not long after the late emperor passed away last year, Eunuch Wang retired and returned to his hometown. Eunuch Cai handles most of the affairs around us now."

The little prince didn't let go of his frown. This was another bad news.The prince has always been acquainted with his family, and any news in the former palace has always been passed on by the prince.The old prince often gave him great gifts, and the relationship between the two parties was very good.Now that Eunuch Wang has returned to his hometown, and being replaced by Eunuch Cai who doesn't understand his temperament at all, the little prince really feels a little uncertain.

The little prince went to Lanxue Hall and met Eunuch Cai.Seeing that the father-in-law was very young, he was surprised again.It turns out that at a young age, he also likes to favor and trust young eunuchs. Most of the old people around the late emperor have returned to their hometowns.Now the people who are often serving by Jinshang's side are all originally from the East Palace.

This Eunuch Cai came here today, following the emperor's will, announcing him to enter the palace tomorrow.The little prince knew that he would inevitably have to go to the palace recently, but he didn't want it to be these two days.Today he just found out what his father planned before, and his heart was very confused, he didn't know if there would be any flaws in the palace tomorrow.

But if there is no convincing reason, there is no way to shirk the matter of entering the palace.If you really want to find an excuse to push back and forth, it will be easier for the emperor to become suspicious.So the little prince just smiled lightly, and heard Eunuch Cai tell the time, saying that he must go early tomorrow.

According to the previous regulations, every time the prince came, the palace would give away ten taels of gold.This time it was a different person, the first time we met, the little prince doubled the gift and gave him 20 taels.That Eunuch Cai did not refuse, he generously put away the gold and said with a smile:

"Thank you for your reward. When you enter the palace tomorrow, the emperor asks someone to write down the imperial edict. You should change your name to the prince."

Eunuch Cai accepted the gold with a smile on his face and kindness in his tone. These expressions made the young prince feel a little relieved, thinking that nothing would happen for a while.

He smiled and personally sent Eunuch Cai out, and he let out a long sigh of relief when he saw that he had gone far.

Entering the palace tomorrow, I don't know what it will be like.

No matter how worried the young prince is, since the matter of entering the palace has been decided, there is no delay.On the second day, the little prince packed up and went to the palace to face the saint.

The little prince has always disliked going to the palace, he thought the atmosphere in the palace was too dull, it didn't feel like a place where people lived.He shuddered at the thought of some people living in such a place all their lives, until they died: how could anyone bear this?

What is even more incredible is that there are still people who try their best to live in it.

Thinking that his father was such a person, the little prince could only shake his head.

He really had never been able to understand what the old man was thinking, and now that he was dead, he would never be able to understand.

The little yellow gate led the little prince to the Holy Majesty, who had just left the court and was resting for a while.When the little prince saw the Holy Majesty, he quickly knelt down and saluted.The Holy Majesty asked him to stand up and sit aside, the little prince raised his head and saw that the Holy Majesty seemed to be a little thinner than when he saw him before, probably because the work of being the emperor was too tiring.

He hasn't seen his cousin for a long time, and the last time he saw him was when he was enthroned.At that time, the Holy Majesty was standing on the high platform, and he was below. Only when the time was right, he could look up and take a peek. In fact, he couldn't see clearly, only the golden ceremonial robe he was wearing was shining.In any case, he felt that his cousin was suitable to be a king. He had this temperament and this ability.

His Majesty had a gentle attitude, and told him many of his love when he was studying together when he was young.Later, when he talked about the death of the old prince, the Holy Majesty actually shed tears:

"When the first emperor left last year, I was so sad that I told Cai Chunhong that now that the first emperor had gone, only King Jin was left among the uncles. Unexpectedly, within a year, King Jin would also let go. The world. The brothers gathered under the Nine Springs, probably very happy, leaving us juniors dejected."

The Holy Majesty's tears seemed to come from true feelings, which made the little prince's nose sore, and he started to cry too.He was not sad because the old prince had gone, but mainly because he was thinking that these things are definitely not something that a person like him can afford, and thinking about the future, he was full of despair, so he cried.He is only 19 years old. Although he has been crowned, he is actually not yet of age. No matter how much he looks like an adult, when he cries, his childishness is undoubtedly revealed.He is good-looking, no matter how hard-hearted a person sees him like this, his heart will soften.

The Holy Majesty wiped away his tears and said with a smile:

"It's all my fault, and I made you cry too. The late emperor didn't have many heirs. Although you and I are cousins, we are like brothers. Now that Uncle Wang is gone, you don't have to downgrade your throne. It's up to you to continue. After a while, I will ask them to draw up an edict and pick a good day to announce it to the world."

The old prince was originally a prince. According to the rules, when the young prince inherits the throne, he should be degraded and named the county king.Now the Holy Majesty is very gracious, and he is still named King Jin, which is a rare favor.The little prince hurriedly knelt down to thank him, the Holy Majesty personally went over to help him up, and said:

"You and I are brothers, there is no need to be like this. The old King Jin only has a little flesh and blood like you left in the world, and I should have taken care of him. Speaking of it... How old are you this year?"

The little prince quickly lowered his head and replied:

"Nineteen, next spring will be 20 years old."

The Holy One laughed and said:

"Princess Jin left early, and the old King Jin has never been very concerned about matters such as heirs. You are so old, but no one has told you about your marriage. I will talk to the queen for you another day, and let her replace you." You worry."

Hearing what His Majesty said, the little prince only felt his heart skip a beat.

What does the Holy Majesty mean by mentioning this now?

Do you want to show him your favor?Or do you want to find a woman to spy on him?He doesn't know either.He was very disturbed and felt that he should be quiet.To be honest, he never thought about when to get married before.

He knew that he must get married. As the sole heir to the Jin Palace, it was only a matter of sooner or later.But strangely he never thought about it.Perhaps it was because his mother left too early, and the old King Jin thought it was troublesome and never continued, so his marriage has never been arranged for him.

He himself was not in a hurry about it, he just felt very relaxed.He has always liked messing around in the Qin Lou Chu Pavilion, and he is already used to it.If you get married and have a wife, it seems that you shouldn't frequent romantic places anymore.Although probably no one dared to say anything, he felt that if he always went out to mess around after getting married, it seemed a bit... sorry for others.But if you get married and change your old habits, it seems a bit annoying.

But now is not the time to think about that.

If someone else mentioned this matter, he didn't have to pay too much attention to it, just let it go.But now that the Holy One said so himself, he has nothing else to say except bowing his head and thanking him.He knew in his heart that no matter whether the Holy Majesty wanted to show favor or monitor him, he could not refuse.

The Holy Majesty seemed very satisfied with his attitude, and his smile became more gentle.But the little prince knew the Holy Majesty well enough, he knew that this gentle smile was only based on his obedience.Once he began to disobey this cousin, the terrible revenge that awaited him would be unimaginable and terrible.

The Holy Majesty said a few more casual words to him, and then let him go.The Holy Majesty seemed very tired. He hadn't been on the throne for a long time, and it seemed that he hadn't fully gotten used to it.The little prince respectfully bowed to the Holy One and walked out of the palace.

Finally arrived outside, the dullness that made the little prince breathless seemed to ease a little.The little prince took a deep breath, left the palace gate, and returned to the palace.

The face saint experience was really tiring, the little prince collapsed on the bed as soon as he took off his gown.If the old prince was still alive, seeing his tired appearance, maybe he would give him a severe whip.However, the old prince was no longer there at this time, no matter what the young prince thought, no one dared to take care of him.

The little prince rested on the bed, and felt that he had regained a little strength.He turned over and made himself a little more comfortable, but he didn't get up yet, he just kept reviewing in his mind the expression, performance, and all the words he said today and then.

The little prince has little experience in political struggles, but at least he is smart enough.So he began to think back and speculate, trying to analyze how much he knew about the old prince's rebellion today, and whether he would attack him.

Judging from His Majesty's performance today, he seems to be completely ignorant of the old prince's death, and looks extremely innocent.However, the little prince also knew that the Holy One was far more skilled than him in matters of human relationship and sophistication, if he didn't want to deliberately show his flaws to him, he might not be able to see it.

He spent twenty to ten minutes carefully recalling the expression of the Holy Majesty, and finally had to admit that he really couldn't draw any clues from it.

He sat up, sighing in frustration.

He had to admit that he was probably not the material.He has never received such an education, and all he has learned in the 19 years of his life is how to be a qualified dude.You can play whatever you want, but don't go out of your way, don't make trouble for the old man at home.He's not bad at that, but not so good at anything else.

It's not his fault, it's the old man who trained him like this.Speaking of which, when you think about it carefully, the old man's behavior is really weird.It was clear that he had been planning to rebel, but he raised his only son so casually... Maybe he thought that if the rebellion was successful, there would be time to start raising him?

The little prince never knew what was going on in his old man's mind, and now that the old man was dead, he couldn't figure it out even more, maybe he would never know again in his lifetime.

He curled his lips, shrugged, and decided to see Qinglong again.
