lucky son

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your attention." Meng Hui pulled his claws out of the prince's hand with a little force.He silently recited "This is his mission goal, we must establish a good relationship" three times, and finally maintained a kind smile on his face.

Speaking of which, isn't the general ancient plane quite reserved?Especially the upper class, most of them advocate "the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water", and they are quite restrained in speech and demeanor. What's wrong with holding hands like this? !

Forget about the emperor, after all, Meng Hui hypnotized the other party, making the other party have unreasonable trust and enthusiasm for him, and he could bear it if he did what he wanted.But the prince didn't do anything himself, so... is it really what Guangqiu said, "The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked"?

Meng Hui was full of suspicion in his heart, and the emperor who saw this scene was also a little bit surprised.

He naturally knew that his crown prince had always been cold and repulsive towards Buddhism, masters, and so on. Just now when he tried to talk to the other party about this master Xuanzhen, the prince's reaction was quite impatient, but why did he only meet the master? , Without even saying a word, the prince's attitude turned upside down?

Although the emperor believed in Master Xuanzhen's charisma, and hoped that he could live in harmony with the prince and eliminate the hostility from the prince, it also required a process of getting in and gradually becoming harmonious, not as it is now... ...so abrupt and weird.

The emperor, who had always known that the prince was not a good figure and role, had to be suspicious, worried that the prince was wandering around with some bad thoughts, trying to disrespect the master.

Not daring to let the two of them get along any longer, the emperor interjected at the right time, patted the prince on the shoulder with a smile, and impliedly warned: "If the prince says this, I can rest assured." After finishing speaking, he turned to Meng Hui with an expression Wen Wen said, "Master must be extremely tired after traveling all the way. It is better to rest as soon as possible." He pondered for a moment, and was about to think about which palace he should arrange for the master, when he heard the prince next to him speak with a smile.

"Gu has not yet married, and has never had concubines or concubines. This East Palace is sparsely populated. Most of the palaces are deserted and uninhabited. Except for Gu's sleeping hall, there are probably only Hanzhang Hall that are often cleaned up. How about Then arrange the master there." So saying, the prince glanced at the emperor, and seeing that he did not object, he turned to his personal eunuch, "Qiming, take the master to Hanzhang Hall to rest, and listen to everything, the master. order."

A young and handsome eunuch with a pleasant face stepped forward, promised in a low voice, and then saluted Meng Hui with a smile, making an invitation gesture.

Meng Hui could see that the emperor and the prince seemed to have something to say, and they were not in a hurry to get in touch with their mission target—after all, they lived together, and spending time together must be indispensable.

Putting his hands together and bowing slightly towards the emperor and the prince, Meng Hui followed the eunuch Shi Shiran named Qi Ming and left.Seeing the master walking away, the emperor frowned slightly: "Prince, why did you arrange the master in Hanzhang Hall?"

——Hanzhang Hall is the second largest sleeping hall in the East Palace. It stands to reason that placing the master here represents the prince's respect and respect for the master, but the emperor always finds it a bit weird for some reason.

After all, Hanzhang Hall has always been the residence of the Crown Princess.

"My minister just said that the backyard of my minister is empty, and the palaces have been abandoned for a long time. I have really wronged the master. What's more, the Hanzhang Palace is very close to the palace of the minister, so it is convenient for the minister to communicate with the master." The prince's tone was flat. , and even slightly puzzled, "Father, what's wrong with such an arrangement?"

"...There is nothing wrong with it, the crown prince has arranged it very well." Although the emperor felt that it was a bit awkward for the master to stay in the bedroom of the future crown princess, what the crown prince said made sense--I don't know where the crown princess is. The cat is in the house, the palace is empty and empty, it is better to let the master live temporarily, "However, the Hanzhang Hall has always been prepared for the Crown Princess, and the furnishings in the hall are too gorgeous and soft. You should send someone to clean up and replace it as soon as possible. Although The master does not like or dislike foreign objects, and is at ease in any environment, and we must also make the master live comfortably."

"It's natural." The prince promised with a smile.

Such a well-behaved prince really made the emperor very novel. On the one hand, he was satisfied with the respect the prince showed to the master, but on the other hand, he was a little worried that the prince would be obedient and secretly brewing some bad ideas.

"Speaking of it, I'm still a little surprised, why are you so enthusiastic about the master all of a sudden? By the way, you just said that you would like the master to live in the East Palace all the time. Is it true or not?" The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, examining his crown prince.

"Of course it's true. Although my son can't speak eloquently like my father, he is not a person who talks nonsense." The prince looked solemn, "Since my father has arranged the master in this east palace of my father, it is For my son's trust and praise, my son will naturally treat the master with courtesy and treat him like a guest. What's more, the first time I see the master, I feel that the master is indeed a superior man. The rest of the monks are very different, and my son naturally wants to get close and listen to the teachings."

The prince's words made the emperor happy, and even De'an next to him was a little dumbfounded—after all, the prince has not been so well-behaved and sensible for a long time. These few words really refer to the emperor In his heart, it can be regarded as a classic example of flattering and flattering.

If the prince could always be so submissive and considerate in front of the emperor, De'an felt that the prince's position would probably be stable for several more years.

Being coaxed by the prince was extremely happy, the emperor's tone and attitude were naturally softer.He had already wasted too much time today, and although he really wanted to continue listening to the master's lectures and talks about Zen, the memorials full of imperial cases kept urging him to perform his duties.

Walking to the gate of the East Palace with the prince, the emperor earnestly told the prince to take good care of the master.The prince also promised one by one, seeing that the emperor was about to leave, he suddenly seemed to think of something: "Father, you have kept a lot of Buddhist classics there, right?"

The emperor was stunned for a moment: "Indeed, Prince, are you...?"

The crown prince coughed dryly, as if a little embarrassed: "To tell you the truth, the emperor brought his sons and ministers to recite scriptures and worship the Buddha together, but the sons and ministers were quite absent-minded, and they all listened to and heard Buddhist scriptures, and never paid attention to them." After a pause, he met the emperor's teasing and smiling eyes, and turned his head slightly, "I just met the master, and I really want to have a chat with the master, but I don't know much about Buddhism, so... I want to Father, please lend the scriptures you have saved to my son to read, so as not to lose face when I don't know anything when I get along with the master."

The prince is young and mature, and he has never shown such an embarrassing, shy and unstable appearance since he was ten years old.And as his personality became more and more stable and mature, the emperor gradually changed his position from a simple "son" to a "son and minister" mixed with the relationship between monarch and minister, and the distance between father and son gradually became farther and farther.

Now, seeing the prince's expression, the emperor's heart moved, and the father's love that had been deeply buried once again appeared eagerly, and looked at the prince's expression with a more loving expression.

"You, you really don't work hard at ordinary times, so you just hold your feet." The emperor laughed and scolded, then nodded readily, "Okay, I will ask De'an to bring you all my Buddhist scriptures later, so that you won't show your timidity in front of the master! "

Hearing what the emperor said, De'an immediately agreed, and at the same time couldn't help but look at the slightly shy prince, wondering and uncertain.

De'an didn't have the father-son relationship between the emperor and the prince for the prince, nor was he hypnotized by Meng Hui like the emperor, and he had unreasonable trust and respect for Meng Hui, so he looked at things from a more objective and calm perspective.

De'an didn't believe that the prince's sudden change of attitude towards the master was caused by the master's charisma - no matter how good the master is, it will take a while to get the prince's trust, how can it be done just by meeting him? ?Is this the "love at first sight" in the storybook?

Therefore, in De'an's eyes, the prince's strange attitude smacked of conspiracy and use.De'an felt that the prince's behavior should have been admonished by someone. He realized that the relationship between him and the emperor had become more and more distant these years, so he simply used the master as a springboard to re-deepen the father-son relationship.

It has to be said that this action was guided according to the situation, pushed the boat smoothly without leaving a trace, it was really beautiful.

Secretly pondering and studying in his heart, De'an's previous dislike of the prince dissipated a little bit, and his attitude towards the prince became more respectful.

He took people to carry several boxes of Buddhist scriptures from the emperor's imperial Buddhist hall to the Prince's East Palace, said a few pleasant words and left, but unexpectedly, the Crown Prince stopped him while flipping through the Buddhist scriptures with one hand.

De'an didn't have much contact with the prince. After all, both of them knew how to avoid suspicion and rarely talked in private.Seeing the prince's hesitant expression, De'an's heart was raised high, for fear that the prince would let him reveal some information about the emperor--this kind of thing, other princes often do, and they are trying to please De'an, so they hope that they can learn from this prince. The eunuch, who is the closest personal officer to the emperor, heard some gossip that was beneficial to him.

If the crown prince does the same thing, should he say it... or not?If you say it, if the emperor finds out, you will definitely not get any benefits; but if you don't say it, you will offend the prince, and you will also be put on by the prince.

De'an was so anxious and held his breath, but saw the prince closed the Buddhist scriptures in his hand, and said slowly: "How much does Mr. De'an know about Master Xuanzhen's preferences?"

De'an froze for a moment, his face blank.

"What does Master like to eat and use? Besides reading scriptures and discussing Buddhism, what other hobbies do you have?" Seeing that De'an didn't respond, the prince asked more specifically.

De'an: "……………………"

——It seems that in order to build a good relationship with the emperor, this prince is going to take a curved road to save the country, and he plans to please the master who is respected by the emperor first?

Having "comprehended" the prince's intentions, De'an breathed a sigh of relief.After all, the emperor's preferences are a secret, but this Master Xuanzhen's is not.It's just that De'an and Master Xuanzhen are not familiar with each other, and Master Xuanzhen's attitude is gentle along the way, but his emotions are not displayed, it is really difficult to judge his preferences.

De'an racked his brains, trying to recall every move of Master Xuan Zhen, and finally got an idea under the increasingly impatient eyes of the prince.

"By the way! Master Xuanzhen should love tea very much!" De'an's eyes lit up, and his voice raised slightly, "Before, the servant was serving the master to rest in Qianqing Palace. When he saw the master drinking tea, he suddenly laughed!"

The prince raised his eyebrows slightly, and smiled with satisfaction: "Reward."
