After facing down, Duan Mingchong hurriedly walked to the East Palace. Before the time came, he saw Duan Ruwang standing beside the hanging flower gate at the entrance of the East Palace. what.
As soon as Duan Mingchong saw Duan Ruwang, he instinctively felt disgusted and disgusted. He restrained his emotions and stepped forward and nodded: "Why are the two emperors waiting here, is there something important?"
Duan Ruwang didn't go to court this morning. Without him, Duan Mingchong was much more relaxed. After he was done, he hurried back from the East Palace, but he didn't expect to meet him directly.
Duan Ruwang didn't know how long he had been standing outside the door, but there was a layer of crystal white frost on his hair and clothes.
He said, "Where did you go last night?"
This sentence was not polite at all, unlike Duan Ruwang's usual yin and yang tone.
Duan Mingchong frowned, unable to speak bluntly and arrogantly, and said coldly: "This doesn't seem to be about the second emperor."
Duan Ruwang looked at him coldly, turned and left without saying a word.
The attendant behind him hurriedly followed.
Duan Mingchong looked at his back, a little puzzled as to where he was so angry early in the morning.
The palace servant on the side said naively: "His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness the second prince has been waiting here all night."
Duan Mingchong's brows furrowed even tighter: "What is he waiting for here, the emperor punished him?"
Gong Ren said: "No, yes..."
Duan Ming Chong didn't understand why he didn't understand until he walked into the East Palace.
In the front hall of the East Palace, Duan Lishu was sleeping soundly on the small table.
Duan Mingchong was stunned for a moment, then stepped forward and pushed her gently: "Lishu? Lishu..."
Duan Lishu waited until the middle of the night, and couldn't help but fell asleep on the table. The palace staff in the East Palace had persuaded her for a long time before she insisted on waiting. He moved the charcoal basin and put it there, and put on her sable fur to prevent her from getting cold.
Duan Lishu was pushed awake, rubbed his sleepy face in confusion, and said vaguely, "Brother, you're back."
Duan Mingchong lightly straightened her sleeping hair, and said softly, "Why are you sleeping here? What should I do if I'm sick?"
Duan Lishu fell into a daze, opened his arms and hugged Duan Mingchong's waist, rubbed against him like a spoiled child, and said softly, "Lishu is waiting for my brother to come back."
Duan Mingchong's face involuntarily showed a soft color, and he was still scolding: "Naughty, do you have to come here in the middle of the night for something? If my mother finds out, I will be scolded."
Duan Lishu smiled sweetly: "I miss my brother, can't I come over?"
Duan Mingchong patted her head gently, and smiled helplessly: "You."
He sent people to prepare hot water and clothes, and pushed the bridle to freshen up.
Duan Lishu waited all night, and after she calmed down completely, she didn't know how to talk to Duan Mingchong. She looked at Duan Mingchong for a long time before turning around and walking behind the screen to wash up.
"Brother, Li Shu has something important to tell you, so please don't leave."
Duan Mingchong has been in a hurry since he went down to court. Just as he was about to leave, he heard Duan Lishu's words, smiled and said, "Okay, brother will wait for you."
Duan Lishu nodded: "Yes."
Hearing the sound of water inside, Duan Mingchong walked out of the dormitory lightly, and whispered to the palace servant beside him: "Go to the small kitchen and let the cook make two baskets of steamed buns. It's faster, and the more exquisite the style, the better. "
His Royal Highness does not like sweets, so as long as he instructs the cook to make snacks, they will definitely be sent to Sui'anhou's house.
The servants had long been used to it, and when he heard Duan Mingchong's urging, he hurriedly agreed and ran away like a rabbit.
Seeing him walking away, Duan Mingchong seemed to have relieved his burden, and the anxious expression on his face completely subsided.
"elder brother?"
Duan Mingchong turned back immediately: "I'm here."
Duan Lishu changed his clothes and walked out from behind the screen, his face was wet, and he could vaguely see the blue marks in his eyes.
Duan Mingchong took a dry towel to help her dry her face, and said, "I just saw the second brother waiting outside, are you here together?"
Duan Lishu was a little surprised: "Is the second emperor still outside?"
Duan Ming held his hands for a while, then shook his head and said, "Just now I have left."
He put the dry towel aside, sat beside the Duan Lishu, and said, "Tell me, what happened last night, so you didn't sleep here and wait all night."
Duan Lishu was still worried about Duan Ruwang, when he heard this sentence, he froze for a moment before he lowered his head.
She stirred her slender fingers uncomfortably, and said indifferently, "I... I don't know how to say it."
It's always hard to guess what the little girl's family is thinking, Duan Mingchong asked tentatively, "It has something to do with me?"
Duan Lishu looked up at him, then lowered his eyes quickly, a little anxious and didn't know how to speak.
Duan Mingchong did not rush, and waited patiently for him.
"Don't worry, you speak slowly."
Duan Lishu murmured for a while before taking a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind, raised his eyes to Duan Mingchong's amber eyes, and said in a trembling voice, "I went out of the palace last night and met Sui Yan."
Duan Mingchong frowned. Last night, except for the fact that there were too many people on the street, Duan Mingchong didn't want Sui Yan to go with him to crowd people and buy lanterns alone. They were all inseparable. They should have met at that time. .
At that time, Sui Yan acted as if he was nothing, and didn't even mention it to him.
Duan Mingchong thought about it carefully, and felt that there was no need to mention it.
He said, "Then? What did you say?"
Duan Lishu's heart was throbbing in pain. For the first time, she hated this elder brother's thick nerves so much, she stepped on Duan Mingchong's foot under the table with red eyes, and said with a crying voice: "What do you think, we can say what?"
Duan Mingchong was trampled for unknown reasons, but when he saw Duan Lishu was about to cry, he didn't dare to refute, and hurriedly said: "Okay, what Lishu said is what, it's my fault."
According to Duan Mingchong's previous experience of coaxing his sister, as long as he admits his mistake at this time, everything will be fine.
But as soon as he finished speaking, Duan Lishu stepped on his feet even harder.
"It's your fault!"
Duan Mingchong: "…"
Duan Mingchong's face was dazed, and he tentatively said, "Yes, sorry?"
Duan Lishu was going to be pissed off.
She was originally full of fear and anxiety, lest she would have a quarrel with her closest brother because of this matter, but Duan Mingchong was so heartless about this matter.
Her voice was hoarse: "The fact that I love Suiyan has spread all over the palace, why don't you know? Or are you pretending to be ignorant and deliberately mad at me?"
Duan Mingchong: "…"
"what?"
He handles political affairs in the palace every day, and in his spare time he has to go to the Hou's Mansion to see Sui Yan, and the people from the East Palace will never talk to him, so Duan Mingchong has no chance or time to listen to this kind of stuff. gossip.
He stared blankly at Duan Lishu who was so angry that he was about to cry, and said quietly, "You... adore Suiyan?"
When Duan Lishu saw him like this, he kicked him again and said angrily, "Duan Mingchong, I hate you to death!"
Duan Mingchong reluctantly cleaned up his chaotic thoughts. He took his breath away in a low voice and pulled back his swollen foot. He pretended to be calm and said, "Li Shu, Sui Yan is not a good person for you..."
Duan Lishu looked at him coldly and said, "Foot."
Duan Mingchong had to put his foot back again.
Duan Lishu stepped on it with one foot, gritted his teeth and said, "He is not a good person to me, so you are."
Duan Mingchong's eyes narrowed before he smiled softly: "You know?"
Duan Lishu couldn't believe it: "Are you still laughing?! Aren't you afraid that I will ignore you again for this matter?"
Duan Lishu thought for a while, then pretended to be vicious and said, "I may also become a bad woman, sowing discord between the two of you, so that you will not end in a good life!"
Duan Mingchong reached out and touched Duan Lishu's head, and said helplessly: "If you were really like this, you wouldn't wait here all night just to tell me about this. Lishu, you are a good boy, brother. always knew."
Duan Lishu was stunned.
Duan Mingchong smiled and said, "A good boy will not do bad things for his own selfish desires, so..."
He said with difficulty: "...Can I take my foot back? It hurts a bit."
Duan Libei: "… "
Duan Lishu was originally full of anger, but suddenly he was dumbfounded by Duan Mingchong's words.
Duan Ming, who is close to Zhu, is red and close to ink, is black, and he has been with Sui Yan for so long, and finally he has learned some ironic skills.
Although it was only fur, it was very effective. Duan Lishu glared at him angrily, but soon, she couldn't help but let out a laugh before she retracted her feet.
It's just that she smiled and laughed, and suddenly she shed two lines of clear tears without warning. Her appearance is beautiful, and the tears like pear blossoms are almost so distressing that they want to take off the stars and moons in the sky for her just to enrich her. smile.
She laughed and cried, wiped the tears from her face with her hands, and choked up: "Brother, am I too bad?"
This question is too childish, Duan Mingchong looked at her tenderly, and said softly: "My hedge is naturally the best in the world."
Duan Mingchong thought she would ask "I'm so good, why doesn't Suiyan like me" in the next sentence, but Duan Lishu suddenly wiped away a tear, sniffed lightly, and said, "That Suiyan can't see it. When he got on me, he was blind, and it's none of my business."
Duan Mingchong: "…"
Duan Mingchong couldn't say enough: "Yes... Right."
You can look at it.
Sui Yan was scolded for being blind without knowing anything. It can be said that he was very innocent.
Duan Lishu wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said, "I will find someone better than him in the future. On the day of marriage, I will go to the Houfu street twice, and I will be mad at him."
Duan Mingchong: "…"
Duan Ming Chong's heart is so embarrassing? Then you may not be angry with Sui Yan, and 80% of you can be angry with me.
But now Duan Lishu is happy to unravel himself, and he can no longer find himself uncomfortable, so he agrees all the way.
After Duan Lishu finished unraveling herself, she remembered the purpose of her coming here. She told Duan Mingchong about the emperor's marriage last night, and at the end she worried: "Will the blind be in danger?"
Duan Mingchong: "…"
Duan Mingchong vaguely remembered that Duan Lishu called "Brother Wanggui" very intimately before, but now he has become "that blind man".
Duan Mingchong said: "You don't have to worry, he will be fine."
Hou's house.
Because the marriage between Hou's mansion and Jiang's family was coming, after the Lantern Festival, the affairs of the mansion began to be handled.
Although Sui Xun usually looks indifferent and majestic, he is very handy when it comes to buying things like this.
He specially recruited the most exquisite craftsmen in Beijing, and planned to renovate the main courtyard of the Hou Mansion.
The craftsman frowned and looked at the drawing, and said very straightforwardly: "I don't understand, sir, just say where to change it, no need to draw a draft."
Suixun held his breath and took the paper back, thinking that this is not a draft, but a final draft that has been transcribed eight times.
- In fact, he was very satisfied with the seventh time, but after thinking about it, he transcribed it again.
Eight, auspicious.
But he was a martial artist, how could he be able to paint, even the most skilled craftsmen could not understand the ghost-painted talisman.
Suixun had no choice but to tell them with a cold face what needs to be changed.
Near noon, when Suixun was in the front yard to see if the martial arts field needed renovation, he suddenly saw Haitang running from the door to the side yard carrying a food box.
Suixun frowned: "Stop."
Haitang was startled and turned around quickly: "Second Young Master."
Suixun said, "What's in your hand?"
Haitang said indifferently, "It's the cake that the East Palace gave to the young master. I want to give it to you while it's hot."
When Sui Xun heard the East Palace, his face turned green, probably thinking of Duan Ming Chong's bright provocation this morning.
With a disheveled expression on his face, he said, "Don't give it away, throw it out."
Annoying to look at.
Suixun couldn't throw Duan Mingchong out, he could only throw his things to vent his anger.
Haitang's face was embarrassed: "But, the young master has been waiting for a long time..."
Sui Xun impatiently opened the food box and looked at it, and said, "That's it, the cook in our house can't make it, and we have to eat it from the East Palace? You let the kitchen make it as it is and send it to Wanggui. "
Haitang still refused.
Suixun gave him a cold look, and Haitang was so frightened that she burst into tears and walked away aggrieved.
After Sui Xun vented like this, he felt completely at ease, and went to play with his martial arts field again.

[Impatiently knocking on the table] Did the steamed buns come? It's so inactive as soon as you eat it! A man's mouth is a liar.
