Hearing this voice, Murong Ci instinctively freed his hands and stood forward.
Murong Yu remained motionless, his snowy face sank. Dijing is so big, how did you meet them
It was Murong Shi and Shen Zhiyan, brothers and sisters, it looked like the three of them were hanging out together.
This is the main street, surrounded by so many people, it's not easy for them to call "Your Highness" directly, and they don't even have to salute.
Murong Ci's eyes flashed, suddenly a flash of inspiration, Murong Shi was in a hurry to leave the palace, just to hang out with them in the street, could it be that the son she had empathized with was Shen Zhiyan
Seeing His Highness and Yu Wang getting so close, Shen Zhiyan couldn't help feeling puzzled: It's too strange for the two of them to go to the street together, and they are still so close, and they were still political enemies who fought to the death more than half a year ago
He has been with His Highness's companion for many years, and usually gets very close to His Highness, but never this close. At this time, he concluded that His Highness and Yu Wang must have some strange things.
And Shen Zhili also saw it, the moment she squeezed through the crowd, she saw Yu Wang standing behind His Highness the Crown Prince, His Highness's back was almost touching Yu Wang's chest. With her keen sense as a woman, she concluded that there must be an unusual relationship between Yu Wang and His Highness.
There were secret speculations in the past, but they were all overturned by her. At this moment, those speculations returned to her heart.
Both His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Royal King are good at Longyang
Because of this, Yu Wang has no affection for her
Because there were too many people around, it was difficult to speak, so they squeezed out of the crowd and stood on the side of the street. Murong Shi smiled all over her face, "Third Uncle, why are you playing in the street with His Royal Highness?"
"You are in a hurry to leave the palace, so you went to the streets with Zhiyan and Miss Shen." Murong Ci joked, "Princess, what happened to you and Zhiyan during the days when Bengong was not in the capital?"
"No way..." Murong Shi lowered her head in embarrassment when her mind was punctured.
"You kid is good at abducting the princess from Ben Gong." Murong Ci raised an eyebrow at Shen Zhiyan.
"Your Highness, I..." Shen Zhiyan was so guilty that he was speechless, and felt more and more ashamed and blamed himself. He shouldn't rob His Highness's people, even though His Highness doesn't like the princess.
"There's nothing wrong with lovers getting married in the end." Murong Yu said lightly.
"My lord, Your Highness, there are too many people on the street, why don't you take a break at a tea house." Shen Zhili smiled gently, dissolving the embarrassment of his elder brother and princess.
"This king and His Highness still have something to do, you go and play." He blinked coldly.
"It's New Year's Eve, what government affairs are there?" Murong Shi muttered softly.
"This palace wants to observe the people's sentiments with the prince, and even make unannounced visits." Murong Ci raised his eyebrows mysteriously, knowing what he meant in his heart, and he didn't want to be with them, it was too noisy.
"Your Highness, my lord, please." Shen Zhiyan bowed his hands.
They parted ways, Shen Zhili looked back reluctantly, originally hoped to have a better understanding with Yu Wang while drinking tea and chatting in the teahouse, but unexpectedly he refused. Could it be that Yu Wang's mind is different from that of ordinary men
After walking for a while, Murong Ci frowned and said, "I always feel that Miss Shen has noticed something."
Murong Yu held her little hand, "It's nothing if she notices it, I hope she just gives up."
She sighed secretly, Shen Zhili was fine, even a well-known lady with both talent and beauty was worthy of him, but she had a special liking, deep in her heart, she didn't want to share her husband with other women. Just like my father's concubines in the harem, I eagerly look forward to my husband's arrival every day and night.
The love and marriage she wants are unique.
I don't know if he can do it.
Murong Yu conveniently bought two masks to wear on his face so that no one would recognize them.
Coincidentally, they walked around three streets, bought a lot of new and interesting gadgets, and bumped into Shen Zhiyan and the other three. This time, fortunately he and the others were wearing masks, so Murong Shi and the others did not recognize them.
Murong Ci was a little nervous as the two passed by. After all, the headgear and robes were the same as before, so they were easy to recognize.
Shen Zhili turned his head and looked, frowning at the two people who just walked past, they looked like the King Yu and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and they were holding hands.
However, there were too many people, blocking the view. She couldn't be sure if those two people were the King Yu and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Shen Zhiyan noticed that his sister was lagging behind, and asked, "Sister, what are you looking at?"
"nothing."
She walked forward quickly, trying to shake off those ridiculous thoughts.
She asked Murong Shi: "Does your third uncle have any weird hobbies?"
"No, why do you ask that?" Murong Shi didn't realize that there was something in her words, and smiled with crooked eyebrows.
"Your third uncle is not young, why don't you marry a wife and have children?"
"I don't know either. No one can guess what third uncle is thinking."
"Will your third uncle be as good as Long Yang?" Shen Zhili was a little embarrassed to say.
"How is it possible?" Murong Shi retorted in amazement,
"What I mean is that although the third uncle doesn't marry a wife and have children, and doesn't have concubines, he can't be as good as Longyang."
"You're so sure." Shen Zhiyan laughed.
"Of course." She said proudly, "Whether it is the palace or the other gardens, I have seen them all, and there is no young master with unknown origins. Therefore, it is impossible for the third uncle to be as good as Longyang."
The Shen brothers and sisters looked at each other, each thinking.
Murong Yu sent Murong Ci back to the palace. She thought he would go back to the palace, but she didn't expect him to follow him to the East Palace.
She laughed, "You haven't gone back yet, many people in the palace watched you come to the East Palace."
He raised his eyebrows and chuckled, "I'll watch the year with you. Let's talk about a few games. I don't know if your chess skill is slightly better, or I will win a thousand miles."
She waved her hand, "You will soon spread rumors throughout the palace."
"I have a solution. You go back and put the jade chess on."
He walked away quickly, disappearing into the beautiful rainbow-like night.
Not long after she returned to the hall, she saw him jumping in from the west window, and asked helplessly, "You climbed the wall and the window to get in."
Murong Yu smiled but said nothing, and then told Ruyi who stood stunned by the side, "Go and prepare hot tea and refreshments, this king wants to talk with His Highness about keeping the year old."
Ruyi snapped back to her senses and hurried away.
Qin Ruo brought jade chess pieces and put them on the table, brought two Mrs. Tang and big pillows, and arranged everything before inviting them to sit down.
The glazed palace lanterns are bright, silver frost charcoal is burning in the brazier, and the bedroom is as warm as spring.
Ruyi and Qinruo stood on the sidelines to watch and serve, and the time passed by bit by bit. They thought of an old saying: when the violin is in the palace, it is better to be quiet.
They can see the kindness of Yuwang to His Highness, and sincerely hope that Yuwang will always and always be kind to His Highness, so that His Highness will not have to worry all day long, worry about the government, the country and the country, and not have to work so hard to guard Murong His family's Qianqiu emperor industry.
God knows what kind of life His Highness has experienced in the past five years since King Yu returned to the court.
The imperial king commanded the three armies, and shortly after returning to the court, he was named regent and took charge of the government. Under his suppression, it is impossible for His Highness to participate in and discuss politics. At first, the civil and military ministers strongly opposed the move of His Majesty the Emperor, and Yu Wang used all kinds of ruthless methods to force them to keep quiet.
Afterwards, Yu Wang took control of the government, powerful, diligent in government affairs, and proficient in governing the country and the country, with outstanding achievements, even more powerful than the fatuous old emperor when he was in power. The appreciation and submission of civil and military officials. And His Royal Highness in the East Palace was forgotten.
During those five years, His Majesty the Emperor exclusively favored Concubine Xiao, playing and singing every night, drinking pools of meat, and the body of the dragon was deteriorating. Neither the crown prince's advice nor the deadly loyal minister's advice was listened to. His Highness was very disappointed in His Majesty, hating that iron cannot be made into steel, so he could only cultivate power secretly.
Yu Wang's foundation in the court is becoming more and more stable and growing. He not only controls the imperial guards, but also controls half of the troops of the capital's defense department. His Highness knew that he could no longer shake him. On the contrary, as long as he moved his fingers, he could bring down the Emperor who had been hanging out with Concubine Xiao all day long from the throne of the king, and he could turn the Eastern Palace into a rebellious minister and thief, and put her in the deadly. Even, as long as he wants to, he can force the palace, steal the country and usurp the throne.
Therefore, His Highness worried day and night, could not sleep at night, was terrified, fell into the panic of losing his family, losing his country, suffering day and night, and was tortured.
His Highness swears that if there is a good opportunity, he must get rid of Murong Yu
And what she has to do is to hide her strength and bide her time, try her best to cultivate power and strengthen herself.
During those five years, Qin Ruo and Ruyi accompanied His Highness to think hard, plot and plan, step by step, step by step, and survive day by day. No one can understand the hardships involved.
Now, Yu Wang found out that His Highness is a woman, and she cared for and cared for His Highness. They were glad that Yu Wang had feelings for His Highness, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
It was dawn, and Murong Ci and Murong Yu played a total of five rounds, and she only won one round, and she could only win if he let him go.
"Yeah." She raised her arms high and stretched, "I'm so tired."
"Your Highness, lord, it's still early, why don't you rest for a while." Qin Ruo suggested.
"Today is the first day of the first lunar month. In the morning, Your Majesty will accept the worship of the clan and ministers, but you can sleep for an hour." Murong Yu stood up and walked towards the bedroom.
Qin Ruo and Ruyi have long since seen the strangeness, Murong Ci's lips twitched, and Yu Zu followed in, "You really think my East Palace is your palace."
Ruyi and Qinruo looked at each other and smiled, and packed up jade chess pieces, teacups, and refreshments.
In the bedroom, Murong Yu picked her up and she struggled to get down, but he had already put her on the bed, "I won't sleep until I'm not tired"
He took off the Wujin brocade boots, hugged her and lay down, "Then sleep with me for a while."
She suddenly thought of an important question, "How will you get out later?"
He closed his eyes, "Shh, wake up and think about it."
Inside the heavy curtains, the voice gradually died down, and everything returned to calm.
