there is a stupid emperor

When I returned to the palace, it was already dark, Mimi already had experience, and this time I was not in a hurry, but it was the first time for Ruiyi to encounter me 'missing'.The little girl was about to cry, and was coaxed by Mimi in her arms.

Seeing me appearing at the gate, Ruiyi pushed Mimi away and ran towards me, crying, "Bad brother, don't take me when you go out to play."

I was bumped by Ruiyi and staggered backwards, Mimi saw her and hurried over to help me.

"It's good that the Ninth Prince is back. Are you hungry? Would you like Mimi to make chicken drumsticks for the Prince?"

After such a long time, Mimi still calls me Ninth Prince.

"Has Yi'er eaten yet?" I took Ruiyi's little hand and walked into the room.

"Not yet, I said we will eat together when the prince comes back." Mimi followed behind.

Ruiyi muttered in dissatisfaction, "Brother is a bad person, and he doesn't take me with him when he goes out to play. If you are like this in the future, I will ignore you."

"Hmm." I obediently agreed.

Mimi watched from behind, feeling a little sore in her heart, Niang Niang, your spirit in heaven has seen it, so you must be relieved.

eat, sleep.

The class in the big room continued again, Xiaoluzi led me, and I led Ruiyi, and reported on time.

The strange thing is that there are many unfamiliar faces.

Some are older than me, and some don't look as old as Ruiyi.

But that has little to do with me.

I only noticed that Zhu Yougui and the others had changed seats.

Maybe I won’t come anymore, I looked at the sunlight coming in from the window, and I heard the sound of reading books in my ears.

There are also two people who don't study hard.

"Hey, do you know that the Anbei Army is going on an expedition today?"

"What kind of expedition, you idiot, it's to crusade against the barbarians."

"It's troublesome if you ask me. If you don't go directly to Anbei, you have to come back and go again. It's really troublesome. Hey, don't you go and have a look? It is said that the emperor will practice it for them today."

"You can keep your voice down. I want to go too, but look at the current situation, have you gone?"

An Beijun?

Why do I sound so familiar?

Ruiyi was sitting next to me, shaking her head and reading a book seriously.

I was dizzy from being shaken, but my mind was clear.

It was Zhu Yougui who was leaving.

I stood up suddenly, and a few of the people next to me shrank back with books, for fear that I, a fool, would do something bad.

"Brother, what's the matter?" Ruiyi tugged on my sleeve, trying to make me sit down.

I patted Ruiyi on the head, "Wait for me here."

Then, regardless of the crowd's discussion, he opened the door with great effort and ran out.

When I went out and looked at the plants in spring, I realized that I didn't know where I was going.

where to.

Zhu Yougui is leaving, I have to see him off, right?

I heard a horn in my ear, and the faint and sharp voice of the eunuch reading, I ran to follow the sound.

Gradually, I saw people, many people, some standing, and some peeking from the sidelines.

The gate of the palace was wide open, and I could only see a man in yellow, surrounded by people, standing on the wall not far away, with his back to me.

There are many others with their backs to me.

The palace gate used to be the city gate.

People on the street don't know where they went.

I stand at the gate of the palace.

Looking at the uniformed soldiers outside the city gate.

The legs trembled suddenly.

Maybe I was too tired from running.

I didn't see Zhu Yougui, I only heard the jerky and incomprehensible send-off speech, should I go there?so many people.

The city wall and the palace gate are not far away, it’s just a small street. My eyesight is not bad, and I can see the team over there. A person in the second row of the team moved his head, which is very obvious in the serious formation. I didn't see the face clearly, but my intuition told me that maybe it was Zhu Yougui, so you should look for me again.

When I took a deep breath and wanted to move forward, I saw a man on the city wall turning around to look at me abruptly.

Because everyone was standing with their backs to me, and I noticed such a person turning around abruptly, our eyes met, and all the courage I mustered disappeared in the sharp eyes.

My legs are weak.

I was so stared at by that man that it was difficult for me to move back.

After the congratulations were finished, the generals thanked the emperor for their kindness and expressed their loyalty to defending their family and the country.

The army is leaving.

The emperor is leaving and returning to the palace.

I saw that some eunuchs were already hurrying towards me.

My mind went blank.

Or...how about I go back first.

So before the first eunuch saw me, I ran back and ran all the way back to Yichun Palace without even looking at the big house.

When Mimi saw me, she was arranging vases. She put the vases on the table casually, came to meet me, and asked with concern: "What's wrong? Why are you back? Why are you running so fast? What happened?"

I was stopped in the yard by Mimi, she wiped the sweat off my forehead, "What's the matter? Is there something uncomfortable? Or a headache?"

What am I going to say?What should I say?

I looked at Mimi's gentle and eager eyes, and my whole body was dumbfounded. I stood there dumbfounded, while Mimi fumbled and looked at my collar. She was afraid that I might be hurt.

Little Lvzi also came over upon hearing the sound. He stood aside with a blank expression on his face, but there was a hint of concern in his expression. He didn't know what to say.

I looked at him, at Mimi.

Wow.

Cried.

I don't know why I'm crying.

I was actually angry in my heart, angry that I was useless for not seeing Zhu Yougui off, angry that I cried in such a shameful way.

Mimi was even more frightened. She thought I was being bullied, but when she saw me crying without speaking, tears welled up in her eyes, "What's the matter, prince, tell me, is it someone who bullied you?" gone?"

Little Lvzi also asked, "Who bullied you." Looking at the black face, as long as I said it, I would kill him.

I can't control my emotions well, and I can't control my tears, just like I don't know what to do when I am happy. Now I cry, and I don't know if I am sad.

I have a strange feeling that this body is not integrated with my mind.

"Don't cry, don't cry." Mimi comforted me, wiped the tears on my face with a handkerchief, and patted my back to try to warm me.

I cried harder.

I ran all the way before, and now I was crying at the top of my lungs, and I couldn't breathe.

Mimi helped me calm down, and my crying gradually weakened.

"Don't be sad, don't cry, Mimi is here, tell Mimi something, okay? No one can hurt the prince, no one, Mimi will protect the prince, prince don't cry." Mimi Comfort me, she didn't know what was wrong with me, so she said a lot of what she wanted to say.

I looked at her with tears all over my face, and said in a choked voice: "Mimi..."

"Mimi is here, Mimi is here." She responded repeatedly.

I stopped talking, I couldn't think of what I was going to say.

explain?I never want to explain anything, wronged?I feel very wronged, but I can't tell why I am wronged, what am I wronged.

Zhu Yougui left, and he just left.

From now on it's just me.

It's just me.

Tired of crying, I lay on Mimi's shoulder and fell asleep in a daze.

Xiaoluzi carefully hugged me in her arms and put me on the bed in the back room.

Mimi covered me with the quilt, dipped the veil with water, and gently wiped the tears on my face.

"Tell me, what's the matter with the prince?" Mimi's voice was very soft. She was also in tears before, but now her voice is a little hoarse.

Little Lvzi stood beside the bed, listening to Mimi seeming to ask him or talking to himself.

"Today is the day when Anbei's army goes out. The prince is still young and can't bear the separation, but he..."

Little Lvzi knew what Mimi didn't finish.

But he has had too many worries recently.

The little prince is no longer that innocent and foolish little prince.

Everyone in Yichun Palace can feel it.

Although he was still in a daze, there was definitely something in his eyes that was not in a daze.Hidden very deep.

And different from the usual Tiantianzhai Inner Palace, Zhu Yougui ordered him to go crazy whenever he had time, and he never said anything when he came back.

Zhu Yougui.It seems to have had a great effect on him.This is not a good thing.

"After this year, the prince will be ten years old. It's time to grow up." Xiaoluzi said.

"Yeah, ten years old. It's been eight years since my mother left." Mimi put the handkerchief aside and looked at my peaceful sleeping face. "It doesn't matter if you grow up or not, as long as you are safe and happy all the time."

Little Lvzi looked at Mimi.Mimi still looked at me and said: "You are the prince's eunuch and also a bodyguard, you should know that the Zhu family is not something the prince should contact."

"...Yes." Mimi still had a gentle expression, but Xiaoluzi knew that the prince was not the only one who grew up these years.

And they, they lived to protect the prince and take care of the prince.

"Look back, let Nian'er prepare the side medicine...the prince doesn't need to grow up."

It's obviously a scary word.

But Mimi expressed infinite tenderness.

This is the only thing she can do, the only thing that can protect the prince.

She knew that the prince was getting clearer gradually, but it was impossible, you know, in this deep palace, the clear ones cannot survive.Especially in today's deep palace that even the emperor cannot protect.

Can not be done.

In the past, she was willing to let the little prince get in touch with Zhu Yougui just for the joy. Although the little prince didn't express it, the joy was hard to ignore.

Now that Zhu Yougui is gone, it has such a great influence on the prince.

What is she going to do.

The only thing she can do is what the empress said back then.

"I don't want my prince to be rich and powerful, I just want a safe life."

Prince, Mimi is useless, it can only make you slowly forget about those things you shouldn't be in contact with.The days to come will become more and more difficult. Mimi will do everything she can to make you live happily ever after.

Little Lvzi looked at me resolutely.

"…….it is good."

The last wish of the empress is only for the prince to be healthy, and the prince was born stupid. Although he is getting better now, if he is stupid, he can live a safe life.

Then, everyone in this palace, even the empress, will make the same choice as them.
