On the fifth day after the third prince Xiao Gong woke up, Emperor Ji Yongmu, who had been worried about the health of his younger brother, handed over a booklet, requesting to bring his son-in-law into the palace to visit.

Just visiting the palace, probably won't cause trouble, so Emperor Longde approved the word "permitted" after a little thought.

"Xiwen, did you choose the old ginseng?" Xiao Jiu asked.

Xiwen replied: "I have chosen it, and I have already given it to Songyan."

During this period of time, Songyan has been following Xiwen, but she is quite capable, she doesn't talk much, she winks, and she doesn't show off to Zhong Shuo. Day stared at her, and this time when entering the palace, she also had to bring loose smoke.

Just when Zhong Shuo came in from the outside, Songzhu behind him was holding a bunch of brocade boxes, Xiao Jiu said, "Is the one in Songzhu's hand for Xiao Gong?"

Zhong Shuo asked Songzhu to look for Songyan first, sat down and said, "Exactly, mother heard that His Highness and I were going to enter the palace, so she went into the warehouse to find some nourishing herbs for me."

Xiao Jiu rolled his eyes: "There is nothing in the palace. No matter how bad he is, he is still a prince. He will eat everything in bed all day long. It's not a waste of mother's heart. It's better for you to eat, so thin."

Zhong Shuo laughed and said, "I'm still growing up, and I won't get fat after eating anything."

Xiao Jiu said: "That's right, you eat more than me on weekdays, and you don't see any growth."

Zhong Shuo persuaded again: "You should take it with you. After all, the third prince just woke up, and all eyes in the palace are on His Highness, so it's not good for people to gossip."

Xiao Jiu didn't insist, "Okay, listen to you."

"However, Beining loves me so much? Afraid that others will slander your highness?" Xiao Jiu refused to spare him, and started to say some irrelevant words.

Zhong Shuo replied, "Yes, I am afraid that others will slander His Highness."

Simply crisp.

Xiao Jiu: "..."

After tidying up, Xiao Jiu put on the air of an imperial concubine that he hadn't put on for a long time, and walked into the palace gate with Prince Consort Zhong and a group of servants, golden cars and BMWs.

The two first went to the Zichen Palace to greet Emperor Longde, and then went to visit the Queen Mother.

Xiao Jiusheng is good-looking and can talk, the Empress Dowager was the most indifferent to Xiao Jiu in the past, and now he will go to Linye with Zhong Shuoyuan in October, and he will go there for five years, the Empress Dowager was very reluctant, so she dragged him to talk for a long time, He was rewarded with a lot of things before letting him go.

Out of Shoukang Palace,

The two sat in the carriage, and Xiao Jiu said: "The Queen Mother is very kind to me, but she was ill during the time we got married. Your Majesty, Your Majesty did not allow me to say goodbye to her. This is the first time since I got married." Come back and see her."

Zhong Shuo thought about the Empress Dowager's face and said, "The Empress Dowager is indeed kind, and I have nothing to say to Your Highness."

Xiao Jiu said: "That's right, it's just that the power has been in the hands of Concubine Shen for many years, and His Majesty has favored Concubine Shen, which has resulted in disharmony with the Empress Dowager. She has not heard about palace affairs for a long time."

Zhong Shuo said: "The Empress Dowager lives alone and lonely, Your Highness may often visit her in the future."

Xiao Jiu looked at him and smiled, knowing what he said "in the future".

Most of Xiao Gong's injuries had healed, and he was still unable to move much. When they went, Xiao Gong had received the notification and was leaning on the big welcoming pillow to wait.

Seeing them coming in, he smiled and said, "I've seen the emperor, consort, I'm not feeling well, I can't be polite, I hope the emperor will forgive me."

Xiao Jiu said: "It's nothing, you just lie down, Miss Huang doesn't lack your courtesy."

Zhong Shuo, who was behind Xiao Jiu, saluted Xiao Gong silently, Xiao Gong hurriedly called out, and asked someone to set up a seat for them to sit.

Zhong Shuo sat down, Xiao Jiu sat directly on the edge of the bed, looked at Xiao Gong's pale face, and said distressedly: "So pale, do the people below serve you wholeheartedly? Let Ben Gong know which one is not interested, and be careful." I have skinned him!"

Xiao Gong said: "For nothing, the servants are all carefully selected by the imperial concubine, and the work is naturally reliable."

Xiao Jiu understood, and said with a smile: "That would be the best, you need to take good care of your body if you are injured, no, your brother-in-law specially brought you a lot of medicinal materials, all of which are aged, especially the old ginseng. , it’s best to stew and eat. Songyan! Hurry up, let your sister in charge take you to put the things down!"

Song Yan saluted and said: "Yes, Your Highness." Then he walked to the side of the grand lady of Chonghua Palace, smiled and said, "Please, sister, take Song Yan for a while."

The palace lady was a little impatient, but she looked at Xiao Jiu, and honestly took Song Yan to the warehouse, and took away a few maidservants to help get the gifts.

Xiao Jiu said again: "The rest of you should go down. I, my son-in-law, and the emperor's younger brother are gossiping about family affairs. What do other people think they are talking about?"

The remaining maidservants looked at each other in blank dismay, and retreated after saluting.

After all the maidservants went down, Xiao Gong said with a smile: "I haven't thanked the concubine for your care."

Zhong Shuo said: "Third Prince, there is no need to be so polite, this is what Zhong Shuo should do."

He turned his head to look at Xiao Jiu again, and pointed to the outside of the hall, "Your Highness, I should go out and wait."

This is what someone outside meant, Xiao Jiu understood him, "Go ahead, please trouble your son-in-law." Zhong Shuo went out of the palace gate and leaned casually on the door frame to separate the palace people waiting at the door.

After Zhong Shuo went out, without waiting for Xiao Gong to say anything, Xiao Jiu said: "The palace servants in the third emperor's younger brother's palace don't seem to be very obedient."

Xiao Gong smiled, "It's always reassuring to live under the fence."

Xiao Jiu turned his head to look at him, the flower tinsel on his forehead was shining brightly, it was a special design made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, it was only given to emperor concubines and concubines with high status or favor, his mother was never qualified.

Xiao Jiu said: "If you live under others for a long time, you will be bored."

Xiao Gong replied: "Of course I am no better than Sister Huang. I was born in a golden cage and have no choice."

"What are you talking about? The emperor has been smart and enlightened since he was a child. With a sharp knife hanging around his neck, it is the best strategy to find another way out."

Xiao Gong said: "Sister Huang is joking, she is the eldest princess, she is a role model for us, my younger brother is dull, and I hope Sister Huang will guide me."

This is the preliminary agreement.

Xiao Jiu said: "Don't dare to give directions, but the emperor's younger brother was bullied by a person with a different surname, so my elder sister, this palace, is naturally heartbroken."

Xiao Gong said: "In that case, we will all depend on Miss Huang."

When Zhong Shuo was away, Xiao Jiu became more indifferent, "Ming people don't speak dark words, I am willing to help you."

Xiao Gong: "What does the emperor want me to do?"

Xiao Jiu got up and sat on the chair that Zhong Shuo sat on just now, and said, "They are all from the palace, the emperor should understand the grievances between my palace and Concubine Shen, Guifei Shen can't tolerate you and I can't tolerate you."

"If you don't, the palace will set off for Linye with the consort. You stay in the palace and you know what to do."

Xiao Gong smiled bitterly, "I can't protect myself now, I'm afraid I can't do my best."

"Her child will be born around the end of the year. When she has another chance to plan, you will die. I will leave someone for you in the capital for you to dispatch. Someone will send you a message at that time. Now you can rest assured and heal your wounds. Let’s talk again.”

Of course, Xiao Gong has nothing to say, but,

Xiao Gong asked suspiciously: "What is the picture of the emperor? Why do you help me so much?"

Xiao Jiu said casually: "I, like you, want Concubine Shen to die, and don't think too much about other things."

Xiao Gong: "Sister Huang..."

Without waiting for him to say anything else, Xiao Jiu said first: "If you listen to what I say honestly and be less suspicious, maybe you can not only save your life?"

Xiao Gong was secretly shocked when he heard his words, and couldn't help guessing. A thought popped up, but he couldn't suppress it. For a moment, he really heard the voice of desire breaking ground.

Xiao Jiu said coolly again: "Imperial Brother also think about Chang Guiren, she has been in this palace for many years, but it is only because of you."

"Yes, Sister Huang, I understand." Xiao Gong quickly stopped guessing, and seemed to think of something, and said carefully: "Sister Huang's Huadian today is very beautiful."

Xiao Jiu touched it subconsciously, and looked at Xiao Gong with an indescribable expression: "Your brother is also interested?"

Xiao Gong was confused: "Huh?"

Xiao Jiu coughed and said, "It's very pretty, does the Emperor like it?"

Xiao Gong said: "Yes, I, I don't know if the imperial sister has anything left? I want to have the audacity to ask for some for my mother, I wonder if it is possible?"

That's right, I misunderstood.

Xiao Jiu said generously: "Of course, I will ask someone to bring you a box later."

"So, thank you, Miss Huang."

At this time, Zhong Shuo came in softly from the door and said, "Your Highness, you are back."

Xiao Jiu sat back on the edge of the bed, pretending to be a brother and sister.

When Xiao Gong's grand maid entered the door, she saw the three of them were still the same as when she went out. Xiao Jiu was concerned and said: "There is no one around you who knows the hot and the cold. Although you have never taken a concubine, you don't have any concubine , Injured like this, no one is taking care of you, it’s too pitiful for a good prince, my palace and the son-in-law are singing in harmony, seeing you like this makes me feel uncomfortable."

Zhong Shuo stretched out his hand to hold Xiao Jiu's hand on his lap at the right time, showing a deep friendship.

Xiao Gong said: "Sister Huang is too worried, it is good that I have Zhifang to take care of me."

Xiao Jiu said in the tone of a person who has experienced it, "Zhifang is a court lady after all, not a pillow person. How can there be a pillow person's caring? This is not what I said. It is not easy to arrange for a concubine to be pregnant. I will leave this matter to the emperor." Sister, I will send someone here for you in two days, she is the daughter of your imperial brother-in-law's family, and her family background is very clean, so you and your mother can rest assured."

Xiao Gong smiled and said: "In that case, I would like to thank the imperial sister first. I have seen the imperial sister and the son-in-law so affectionate today, and my younger brother is also envious."

"Of course, your imperial brother-in-law is very good, so I will leave first, so you can rest and recuperate, so there is no need to see you off."

"Songyan, come and wait for His Highness to rest."

Song Yan went forward to help Xiao Gong lie down, and then stood back behind Xiao Jiu silently.

After the two sides were polite again, Xiao Jiu and Zhong Shuo left the Chonghua Palace.

But he didn't want to run into Zhuang Jing.

Zhuang Jing was full of reluctance to visit Xiao Gong, but when Concubine Shen heard that Yong Mu was gone, she rushed her to go too, saying that she was trying to act like a brother and sister.

She complained: "I don't have any friendship on weekdays, but I want to show off at this time!"

Yingyue lowered her head and said: "Your Highness, be careful what you say, just to exchange a few words, if His Highness is reluctant, you can sit down for a while anyway."

"I heard that the imperial sister of the palace is also there, and I am very troubled."

Yingyue reminded: "Later, Your Highness must do enough etiquette, don't choose others."

"All right, all right, you're used to listening to my mother and concubine."

So Xiao Jiu and Zhong Shuo ran into Zhuang Jing as soon as he left Chonghua Palace.

Zhuang Jing saluted reluctantly, calling her "Sister Huang".Xiao Jiu didn't need to return the salute, so Zhong Shuo saluted and said, "Chen Zhong Shuo has seen Emperor Concubine Zhuang Jing."

His clear and gentle voice caused Zhuang Jing to turn her head to look at him, she was stunned at first glance, she had never seen such a man.With a tall and straight figure and a handsome face, Zhong Shuo turned out to be such a good-looking figure!

Zhuang Jing said shyly, "You don't need to be too polite, son-in-law."

Zhong Shuo retreated to the side behind Xiao Jiu, consciously not wanting to talk to Zhuang Jing, and at the same time, he also guarded against Xiao Jiu being hurt by her violence again.

Seeing that Zhuang Jing's eyeballs were stuck to Zhong Shuo's body, Xiao Jiu suddenly felt something was wrong, so she turned her head to Zhong Shuo and said, "Why don't you go to the carriage and wait for Ben Gong first? Ben Gong and Zhuang Jing will come after a little greeting. "

Zhong Shuo was afraid that Zhuang Jing would bully him, so he looked at Zhuang Jing hesitantly, and Xiao Jiu said again: "Is it okay? It's useless for the son-in-law to listen to the words between sisters, why don't you go and have a rest earlier?"

Zhong Shuo had no choice but to say: "Okay, the minister will leave first, and Xi Wen will take care of His Highness."

Xiwen lowered her head, Zhong Shuo shook Xiao Jiu's hand again before leaving.

Zhuang Jing's eyes followed Zhong Shuo's back until he disappeared, making Xiao Jiu uncomfortable for a while.

He raised his thin eyelids and said, "Zhuang Jing is also going to visit the imperial brother?"

Zhuang Jing turned her gaze back and said, "Naturally, a sister should care about the emperor's younger brother."

"Oh? That's really strange. I remember that Guanju Pavilion is not far from Chonghua Palace. Why did you come here today?"

Zhuang Jing gritted her teeth and said, "However, some things were delayed a few days ago, and it's not too late now."

"It's hard for you to be so caring. I came here today, and I saw that the sweepers in the royal brother's palace are not doing their best. How can I serve the prince well? Since the imperial sister is a few days late, then the palace will take the power. Instructing you to change a group of people in the palace of the third emperor's younger brother and clean up these moths, how about it? It can be considered as a sister's heart." Xiao Jiu knew that his every move was under the eyes of Emperor Longde At the bottom, he simply let go of Keng Zhuangjing, which was considered to be a lesson for her.

Zhuang Jing tightened the armor on her hand when she heard the words, "This is really inconvenient. For the people in the third emperor's brother's palace, how can I go overboard and take care of you? The emperor is confused."

"Don't be confused, since you know it's not easy to intervene, then take care of your own hands. I don't want to say this a second time, understand? Zhuang Jing."

Xiao Jiu didn't want to talk too much with her, so it was enough to knock a few words, and the rest was left to Emperor Longde to discipline, "I'm going to find the consort first, and the imperial sister can go in."

He was in a hurry to leave, instead of teasing Zhuang Jing with his words, he slapped Zhuang Jing on the face like a slap, making Zhuang Jing burst into blood, but no matter what he had to worry about his identity, Fu send him away.
