"Uncle Huang! Rong'er misses you to come and see you!" As soon as he entered the emperor's imperial study, Ling Rong didn't even know the etiquette. The color of intimacy.
"Rong'er, don't mess around, hurry up and salute!" King Zhennan frowned and scolded, but if you listen carefully, it's just a scene.
No matter how good the relationship between the two brothers is, the King of Zhennan also understands that the monarch and his ministers have other relationships. As his child, and he is still a boy to the outside world, according to the law of the ancestors, Ling Rong also has the right to inherit the throne. If Ling Rong behaves too much If it is too prominent, it will attract the attention of others. On the contrary, such a nonsense appearance can reassure other people or the king.
Even if he didn't want to think of his own brother like that, but he couldn't help himself in the royal family, King Zhennan had to pay more attention. After all, even if the emperor didn't have such thoughts, those princes would inevitably think too much.
Could it be that Ling Rong didn't understand, and very cooperatively pretended to be reluctant and performed an improper etiquette.
The emperor really didn't have so many rules, and he really hurt his heart for his royal brother, a delicate baby. After all, all his sons only respected him, those who were ambitious to please him, and those who were not ambitious were in awe of him. There is no one who really treats him as an elder.
It's too cold at the top, although he is a shrewd emperor who tries to govern, but when he gets older, people will inevitably long for family affection, so he loves Ling Rong, the only junior who is willing to get close to him.
After helping Ling Rong, the emperor kindly smiled at Zhennan Wang: "Rong'er is still young, there is no need to restrain her like this, it's good."
This is only for Ling Rong, if his own sons, he would probably only reprimand each of them for being so old and not understanding the rules, and those who are eccentric are really strong, no wonder how many concubines and princes in the harem are jealous of Ling Rong Being favored, some people even absurdly suspected that Ling Rong was the illegitimate son of the emperor who did not know who he was with Bai Yueguang outside. In order to protect her, he was not taken into the palace and given the status of prince, so he was fostered in the Zhennan Palace. When the Crown Prince was in power, he suddenly gave everyone an unexpected "happy".
I have to say that this brain hole is also big. If it weren't for the tight security of the Zhennan Palace, the emperor and the Zhennan King were very protective of this little bastard Ling Rong. I am afraid that all kinds of frame-ups would come to Ling Rong. up.
Ling Rongyu smiled triumphantly at her father, and then hugged the emperor's arm, wanting to share with him what she saw and heard on the road just now: "Uncle Huang, Ah Rong could have come to see you earlier, But on the road, I saw the fourth brother who fell into the water, and it took a long time for Ah Rong to save him, and even wet Ah Rong's favorite clothes!"
Clearly he wanted to share his knowledge, but Ling Rong went off topic and lamented about his own ruined beautiful clothes, vividly expressing the child's rambling and divergent thinking.
After nagging for a while, Ling Rong finally brought back the topic of not knowing where he was going: "That's right, Ah Rong saved the fourth brother, isn't it amazing!"
After speaking, the little guy proudly raised his pretty face, as if begging for praise.
The emperor's eyes changed a little when he heard the fourth prince fell into the water, but he still waited until the child had finished speaking and praised him before seriously asking King Zhennan: "What happened to Jin Luo falling into the water?"
This fourth son is the only child of him and the queen. Although he didn't love the queen much, and of course he didn't love any of the concubines in the harem too much, but after all, she was his first wife, and the emperor still respected him very much. Appropriate attention has been given.
With his current rank, he couldn't see any strangeness in it. Just after the empress died, something happened to the fourth prince, but he didn't know which palace was so quick.
"I don't know for the time being, but she sneaked out for a while when I brought Rong'er here, and then I changed my clothes when I came back, and I am proud that I saved the fourth prince here." Zhennan Wang saved Instead of the usual honorific title, the two brothers never cared about these rules when there were no outsiders.
"I know, I'll figure it out."
As soon as these words came out, Ling Rong was relieved a lot. Since he said so, the emperor would not break his promise, and he would investigate this matter clearly, even if the culprit would not be punished explicitly for the sake of the balance of the power in the harem, at least in his heart There is already a calculation.
In the plot, after Qi Jinluo was diagnosed with a crippled leg, the emperor actually showed great anger and ordered an investigation, but at that time things had become settled, and a prince with a crippled leg could not become the heir apparent, even if he knew it was Everything is done by the eldest son behind his back, and he can only make the eldest prince who is the most suitable for the throne among all the sons except Xiaosi, and he can only make the best compensation for Qi Jinluo.
The emperor thought that the elder son would stop after he got what he wanted, but he didn't know that he directly poisoned the fourth son to prevent future troubles, and even dragged the second son into the water, but when he wanted to make a move, he didn't know. Unexpectedly, the elder son was already daring and had already tampered with him. The emperor would never have imagined that he himself would die in the hands of the elder son in the end, let alone that the elder son's body was no longer the original soul.
But now that the eldest prince's plan has been destroyed by her, the emperor will be wary of this son in the future, so naturally he will not take it lightly.
After playing around with Ling Rong for a while, he rewarded her with many things, especially the high-quality fabrics for making clothes, before the emperor let her go. Appearance, all that is left is seriousness.
"Quan Fu, go and find out what's going on for me. I want to see who has such a long hand and is so cruel to Xiao Si."
The eunuch who has been serving the emperor since just now slowly stepped forward and nodded in response: "Yes, my slave will do it now."
When Qi Jinluo woke up, there was the familiar top of the bed above his head, and the reassuring sandalwood around him suddenly made him realize that he... has returned to Jingyang Palace? !
The prince lived in the palace before reaching the crown, but the general rule was to live with his biological mother before the age of twelve, and after the age of twelve, he had to live alone in a palace, and he would not leave the palace to open another palace until he reached the crown.
Qi Jinluo used to live in the Queen's Fengyi Palace, and moved here after his twelfth birthday.
His memory is still in the time when he fell into the pond in the Royal Garden, and the pain in his chest and the feeling as if he drank a big mouthful of water made him believe that he was really rescued from the water.
Sitting up suddenly from the bed, a face suddenly appeared in Qi Jinluo's mind, the owner of that face suddenly grabbed him when he was about to sink, the other party's voice and strength are still clear to Qi Jinluo remember.
Qi Jinluo knew her, she was born with that exquisite appearance like a fairy boy in a painting, and the only one who can walk around the palace at will is the much-loved little prince of the Zhennan Wang family, that is, his cousin — Qi Rong.
However, he didn't know much about the other party. He only knew that he was the only son of the emperor's uncle, and he was loved by his father. After all, his father's love for Qi Rong was something that even the princesses in the palace would be jealous of. I have heard several princesses talking about what kind of reward Qi Rong got from his father in private, which made them all envious and jealous.
As for this, Qi Jinluo didn't think much about it. If it was said that when he was young, he was jealous of this child who stole his father's favor, but after meeting Ling Rong a few times, Qi Rong gradually understood why his father To like her so much, how can anyone not like a fairy boy who grows on the tip of his heart.
Qi Jinluo also wanted to get close to that person in the past, but because his own mother was also deeply influenced by the rumor of an illegitimate child in the palace, although she didn't hate Ling Rong, she would never like him very much. Qi Jinluo didn't want to let Ling Rong The queen mother was unhappy, so she restrained herself from paying attention to this person. Every time she touched him, she would smile sweetly at him, but he just walked past without saying a word.
But now, he doesn't seem to have any reason to avoid her anymore, and he can't explain if it's the psychology of the rest of his life, Qi Jinluo just wants to see that person now.
His movement quickly attracted the maid, who saw that he was about to get out of bed, and stopped him immediately: "Fourth prince, lie down quickly! You just fell into the water and your body is still weak. Although the imperial physician has said that there is no serious problem, you still have to take care of yourself." Rest to avoid high fever!"
Qi Jinluo didn't care about himself at the moment, grabbed the maid's sleeve and asked eagerly: "Where is Qi Rong! She rescued me, right?"
The maid took a long time to realize that the prince from the family was calling the name of the young prince of Zhennan Palace, she thought for a while and replied: "The little prince left after saving you, it seems that he went to see His Majesty with the prince. "
"Where is the father now?"
"Your Majesty should be in the imperial study at this time."
As soon as the maid answered this question, she saw her Highness hurriedly walking under the bed again, even putting on her clothes casually, and was about to run outside.
"Hey, Your Highness! It's cold outside, you should lie back and rest!" The maid didn't dare to let the master do anything, so she hurriedly chased her out, only to find that the master seemed to be in a daze as soon as he reached the gate of the yard. There, she took a closer look, was surprised and hurriedly saluted: "Your maidservant, please refer to the Zhennan prince, and to the little prince!"
It turned out to be Zhennan Wang and the little prince!
Seeing the fourth prince running around outside in thin clothes, King Zhennan lowered his tone to the maid: "Didn't you say that the fourth prince fell into the water, why did you let the fourth prince run out in such a cold day with so little clothes! "
Ling Rong was also dissatisfied that the child didn't care about his body so much, he pouted his lips and snorted unhappily: "Hmph, you don't lie down when you're sick, Ah Rong managed to save you!"
As soon as he ran out of the house, he bumped into the person he desperately wanted to see. Qi Jinluo was so surprised that he didn't recover for a while, and could only stare blankly at her. Hearing this The person seemed to be angry because of himself, and Qi Jinluo didn't care about being stunned. He opened his mouth as if explaining to himself, trying to restore his image in this person's heart.
"I'm not, I'm not…"
