Chapter 36
Chapter 36
Chu Xingzhou looked as expected. When he made this decision, he knew that this day would eventually come.
"How to say?"
Chu Rui took a sip of the tea handed over by the star official and said, "Seventh Uncle disregarded the principles of human relations and cut off the royal blood."
Chu Xingzhou sneered and didn't care, "Isn't this what they want to see the most?" Those old guys didn't dare to fart when the border was in turmoil. Now that the country is stable, everyone wants to challenge him. If some thorns come out, does he really think that he wants to plot the world?
He didn't say any more, but said to Chu Rui, "You grow up quickly, and I can let go quickly." After listening to it, no one else on the top floor of the star palace can come up.
Chu Rui slumped his back rarely, and sighed softly, "Do your best alone."
Under Chu Xingzhou's teaching, Chu Rui is already capable of taking power at this age, but it is still not convincing in the eyes of others.
This is not a time of war, and it is not easy for a conservative emperor to be convincing.
Except for the fact that Rong Li listened to him when he first talked about him, he lost interest in the following things. This is not as interesting as his Gongdou storybook, which is not as good as the storybook in reality.
After a short wait, Xingguan took Rongli to the side to look at the palm prints, and then he waited for Xingguan to write and draw there, and he couldn't understand the things that looked like ghost symbols on it.
Chu Xingzhou talked with the little emperor for a while, and then they came together. They didn't make a sound, they just waited quietly.
After about half a quarter of an hour, the star official put down the pen in his hand and looked at them, "The nearest day is five days later." He was still a little dissatisfied, but King Rui came to ask for the day in person, which is naturally in a hurry, and it's not good Say something more.
"The days are a little anxious, and the preparations that should be made must be done quickly." The star official reminded.
Chu Xingzhou pulled up Rongli who was sitting, "Naturally." Then he pulled Rongli to say goodbye to the little emperor and the star officials. The little emperor still had to learn from the star officials here, so they couldn't bother him any longer.
After leaving the star palace, Chu Xingzhou led Rong Li to walk in the palace on foot.
Because when the little emperor was under the age of concubine, Chu Xingzhou had this status, and he could go anywhere in the palace.
"Where do you want to go, little raccoon?" Chu Xingzhou softly asked Rong raccoon who was not in a good state beside him.
Rong Li was still immersed in the news that he was going to get married in five days, and couldn't hear what the other party said, "Ah? Sorry, I was distracted."
Chu Xingzhou was not annoyed, and asked again.
Rong Li put down the rest of his thoughts, thinking about the first time he entered the palace, the curiosity came back, "I want to see the imperial garden."
He didn't know where he could go in the palace, but he knew that there was one place Chu Xingzhou would definitely take him to. He was also really curious whether the Imperial Garden was really a garden.
"Okay." Chu Xingzhou naturally agreed.
Because the star official needs a quiet environment to survey the sky, the star palace is a distance from the main palace, and the two walked for nearly two quarters of an hour before stepping into the gate of the imperial garden.
Rongli is actually a little tired, but he can't show it. Although it is because of having a cub, in the eyes of others, he is so delicate, so he can't make people feel that way. He refused even when the sedan chair came.
Although he was tired, his curiosity remained unabated. When he heard what Chu Xingzhou said, his heart jumped up again, as if his whole body had regained strength.
When he was about to look around, Chu Xingzhou grabbed him and said, "Let's have a rest first." He didn't ask for his opinion, and he pulled him towards the pavilion on the side of the garden.
The imperial garden is very large, and because of some tall flowers, it is impossible to see the end at a glance, because it has been autumn for a long time, and even the imperial garden has not seen many blooming flowers.
Tea and some snacks have been prepared in advance in the pavilion.
"Don't be in a hurry, after walking for so long, I'll eat something later." He found that Rong Li really didn't have much appetite recently, and he even ate less sour food, which was worrying Yes, it's just that his mother said it's normal, as long as he keeps eating three meals, but he always feels worried.
Rong Li looked at the red bean cake delivered to his mouth, and then glanced at Chu Xingzhou who was expressionless, and opened his mouth helplessly, although he was really not hungry.
In this way, under Chu Xingzhou's feeding, Rong Li will eat two pieces and can't eat any more. Although the pastry is very delicate and the portion is not big, it is true that he can't eat any more, "Enough is enough " Rong Li tilted his head back slightly to avoid the third piece, "I really can't eat it anymore." If he ate any more, he might throw up.
Chu Xingzhou withdrew his hand in disappointment, and poured him another cup of tea. The tea was brought as a tribute from the south, and it tasted sweet and quenched his thirst without being astringent.
Rong Li just took a sip to moisten his throat.
Chu Xingzhou waved back and fanned the wind. Although the weather will still be a little hot after autumn, Rongli can't stand the wind for too long.
Rong Li couldn't sit still after resting for a while, "My lord, can I go and have a look?"
Chu Xingzhou took a look at the sky. Although it was a bit stuffy, the sun was already covered by dark clouds, and he was not afraid of being exposed to the sun when he went out. "Go, let Li An bring you to me when you are tired." He lowered his head slightly and said He touched it lightly on the cheek.
Rong Li blushed to the tips of her ears, this, this is in public, how could the prince just kiss him?
Chu Xingzhou pinched the tips of his red ears, got up and left without saying anything.
Chu Xingzhou left Li An to follow Rongli, and went to the imperial study by himself. Although he didn't go to court today, he still had to look over some documents.
Rong Li, who originally wanted to take a good look around the Imperial Garden, was a little embarrassed along the way. There were many people around just now, I don't know if they saw it.
After being kissed by Chu Xingzhou, Rong Li was not as excited as he was at the beginning when he was strolling around. He bumped into a young man about seventeen or eighteen years old at a corner in his wild imagination.
"Ouch, who is it!" A cry of pain sounded.
Rong Li hurried forward to help the fallen man up. He just saw that the man fell down because he avoided him and backed up.
Li An helped him up first and said, "Third Prince, are you alright?"
The young man known as the third prince waved his hand and patted the clothes on his body casually, "It's all right, be careful next time you walk, you'll meet me too, if it was before, all the women in the palace would be ashamed of whoever they met. It's going to kill you." Then he looked up, and when he looked up, he saw Li An who had just lifted him up.
The third prince was in a hurry now, he looked around and didn't find that familiar figure, he was relieved immediately, and asked cautiously, "Is the Seventh Emperor uncle here?"
Li An replied, "The lord has something to do, and this servant was ordered to take Mr. Rong to look around."
Only now did the third prince turn his attention to the man he avoided, and looked at him with some curiosity, "Are you the one that the Seventh Emperor is planning to marry as the princess?"
Rong Li was a little embarrassed, why did everyone know about this?Then he had been thinking about not attracting the prince's attention and then running away, wasn't it just a waste of time?
Facing this so-called third prince, he didn't know what to say, he just said, "It should be?"
The third prince raised his eyebrows, "Interesting, how did you hook up with my seventh emperor uncle? That person has a cold and smelly temper, how did you manage to deal with him?"
Li An said coldly, "Third Prince, be careful with your words."
The third prince curled his lips, "It's boring, don't ask if you don't ask." After saying that, he walked around them and left. On the way, he randomly pulled a grass core and put it in his mouth.
Rong Li looked at his sloppy walking posture, he really didn't look like a prince.
When Rong Li wandered around the imperial garden, he would find that apart from the larger space and more flowers, there was nothing to see. Perhaps it was because the first emperor left early, and there were not many heirs left behind. Those concubines were buried and released. , Rong Li walked along the way, except for the patrolling guards, it was really deserted.
He yawned a little, and Li An noticed it and led him to the imperial study.
When Rong Li saw the three big characters on the plaque, he stopped unconsciously, "The prince is inside?"
Li An nodded, "Yes, my lord asked me to bring you here."
Rong Li stood watching for a while and smiled, "Don't bother him, just find a place to put me."
"Young Master Rong, come with me." Li An obeyed his words and did not let the prince be informed, but led them to a small path on the right.
"I'll take you to the prince's residence in the palace. There are people waiting there. You can order whatever you want."
Since Chu Xingzhou was able to go out to establish a mansion at the age of 16, he never stayed overnight in the palace. It was not until he had to raise the little prince that he packed up another residence in the palace.
Even so, if it was not necessary, Chu Xingzhou would still go back to Prince Rui’s Mansion to spend the night, even if he had to rush back the next day before dawn, the little prince was like this when he was young, not to mention that now the little prince is already a nearly qualified little emperor.
The place where Chu Xingzhou lived was not far from the little emperor's bedroom. At first it was for the convenience of taking care of the children, but later he was too lazy to change places.
The place where Chu Xingzhou lived was inscribed with Qingyang Temple. As soon as Rong Li entered, he saw the very empty hall. Because it had been cleaned up early in the morning, there was no one there, and it was very deserted.
Li An asked a few people who were serving in the Qingyang Palace to stand by, so that someone would be there when Rongli ordered.
When Rong Li yawned for the second time, Li An suggested, "If Mr. Rong is sleepy, you can go to rest first. It will take some time for the prince to come over."
Rongli was really sleepy, nodded, and yawned a few times on the way to the inner room, with a little water in the corner of his eyes, and lay down on the bed when Li An said that he could lie on the bed for a while , didn't even take off his shoes.
Li An subconsciously wanted to go forward but felt it was wrong, so he went out and called a little eunuch to come in and wait for Rong Li to take off his shoes and coat.
……
Rong Li felt that his whole body was burning hot, as if his whole body was in a sea of flames. That feeling was not as painful and hopeless as the fire he encountered in his previous life. As if something was about to come out of my body, I was restless and at a loss.
He knew he was dreaming, but he just couldn't wake up, as if something dragged him into the dream, and he couldn't get out without taking him with him.
