The emperor was very satisfied with King Jing. He thought about a lot of things at the birthday banquet and looked at King Jing frequently.
After the birthday banquet, the emperor summoned King Jing to speak alone.
Li Yu just returned to the crystal bottle from Taiye Pond. He didn't have time to follow, so he could only wait outside the Qianqing Palace with Wang Xi.
While waiting, Wang Xi took out a lot of red fish food and peach blossom cakes to feed. King Jing's birthday ceremony was an unprecedented success. The prince felt that the master of the little fish was the first credit, and this was the real reward.
Li Yu didn't eat any of the fish food thrown into the water by the sixth prince, and the arrogant fish didn't even look at it. At this moment, the prince voted to feed, and Li Yu felt hungry, and hurriedly swallowed, his cheeks were full.
"Master fish, please be slower." Wang Xi said with a smile.
Li Yu was gobbling up his food when he suddenly heard footsteps.
Li Yu was overjoyed, looked over with the fish food in his mouth, and immediately realized that the direction of his footsteps came from outside the hall, it should not be King Jing.
Li Yu soon saw Mu Tianxiao's gentle face.
...is the sixth prince
Li Yu was a little disappointed, why hasn't this product gone yet
It is estimated that he came to wait for the emperor to summon him, but he did not expect to meet Wang Xi with a fish.
Mu Tianxiao also saw the fish, and the sixth prince wanted to take a closer look at the fish for a long time, and he was about to approach it immediately.
"Sixth Highness, please stay!" Wang Xi frowned and advised.
"The fish raised by the fifth emperor's brother, I'm the younger brother, so I can't take a look at it?" The sixth prince smiled.
What is he doing
Li Yu was so nervous that he even forgot to eat the fish food in his mouth, and the tip of his tail quietly gathered a lot of strength. If the sixth prince dared to do anything to him, he would dare to slap him!
"Sixth Highness." Wang Xi held the crystal bottle firmly in his arms and warned again and again, "This is the fish of my Highness. You are not allowed to approach without His Highness's permission."
Mu Tianxiao's face turned colder: "Why, even you underestimate me?"
Wang Xi was neither humble nor arrogant and said: "The slave is definitely not underestimating the sixth highness, thinking that although the slave is serving people, he knows that it is stealing without telling him. "
After Wang Xi finished speaking, Li Yu almost drummed his fins—if the fins on both sides were within reach.
Wuwuwu, the prince and the prince actually attacked the sixth prince for the sake of the fish. The fish was so moved!
Wang Xi did not give face, Mu Tianxiao was very embarrassed, guessing that there was a dispute with King Jing's personal servant in front of the Qianqing Palace, I was afraid it would be difficult to explain, Mu Tianxiao quickly softened his expression and took the initiative: "No need I'm nervous, I just want to take a look, don't let me see it."
Mu Tianxiao entered the hall by himself, but was quickly invited out by the servants who guarded the hall.
Mu Tianxiao glanced at Wang Xi and turned away.
It seems that the sixth prince's request to see him failed, and the emperor did not want to see the sixth prince.
Finally gone. Li Yu relaxed a little.
Luo Ruisheng escorted King Jing out of the palace, and Wang Xi quickly brought Li Yu to meet him.
"Your Highness, you can figure it out!"
Wang Xi smiled and handed over the crystal bottle in his hand. King Jing's habit was to see fish immediately.
King Jing personally took the crystal bottle and touched the smooth back of the fish.
Li Yu immediately rubbed him happily.
The emperor and King Jing talked for so long. If Long Xin was very happy, it would be fine to directly appoint King Jing as the crown prince. The third and sixth princes, all these scumbags had to stand aside.
Li Yu was almost thinking about himself, how could it be so easy to compete for reserves, he knew it was a whimsical thing, that is, having fun in his mind.
But you can't directly seal the crown prince, there will always be rewards, right
Li Yu secretly looked at King Jing's face. King Jing was neither sad nor happy, feeling that the reward this time was a bit different.
King Jing gestured to Wang Xi: Go to Changchun Palace.
Wang Xi responded and led the way ahead. This was the first time Li Yu went to Changchun Palace, which reminded him of a secret that had not been solved yet and was related to Changchun Palace. He had tried King Jing, but found that King Jing was right. There is no impression of this. If you want to fully understand this secret, you can only rely on your own scrutiny.
In fact, Li Yu had thought about whether to ask King Jing to take him to Changchun Palace before, but the reason was not easy to find. Changchun Palace was the residence of the first empress after all. Time, if he asked King Jing to take him there, King Jing agreed, but in the end he "disappeared", which was too unreasonable. But in the shape of a fish, there was no way to make a request to King Jing.
Li Yu originally planned to delay the day when Queen Xiaohui gave birth. The original book mentioned that King Jing would go to Changchun Palace to worship on this day. Li Yu wanted to wait until then. King Jing would usually bring fish with him. , the fish is wrapped around King Jing's belt and can always enter Changchun Palace smoothly. Maybe then this secret will be naturally solved
Unexpectedly, it was the Longevity Festival. Queen Xiaohui had not yet arrived, and King Jing passed by for unknown reasons.
Because King Jing proposed to go to Changchun Palace after talking with the emperor, is this the emperor's order
Li Yu carefully checked King Jing's face, King Jing should have been rewarded, why is it so solemn...
The group soon arrived at Changchun Palace.
When Li Yu first saw the scenery near Changchun Palace, he became more and more sure that the location of the secret hint was Changchun Palace, because the decoration on the eaves was very similar to what he saw in the system, and after listening to Wang Xi's remarks, Changchun Palace has been around since the death of the first queen. No concubines moved in, and it has not been repaired for a long time.
The main hall of Changchun Palace was dark. King Jing ordered Wang Xi to hold the lantern. The main hall was hung with cloth for sacrificial offerings, and one side was enshrined with the tablet of Queen Xiaohui.
King Jing put the crystal bottle on the table, Wang Xi took out three incense sticks, King Jing lit it personally, came to the tablet, and bowed solemnly three times.
Li Yu entered the temple with King Jing, and his eyes were looking for the cloth tiger, but he couldn't find it for a while. Because the fish was not very convenient, Li Yu had to give up temporarily.
King Jing was paying homage to Queen Xiaohui. Li Yu stared blankly at his figure and couldn't help remembering that King Jing had brought him to meet the elders of Duke Cheng'en's mansion, and now he brought him to Changchun Palace. The Queen is King Jing's biological mother.
Li Yu reacted and quickly followed King Jing and swung the fish in the direction of the tablet, because the incident happened suddenly, and the fish had no preparation, so he could only secretly and sincerely recite: "Empress Empress, if you have a spirit in the sky, please bless Jing. Your Royal Highness…”
King Jing saw the fish wagging its head and tail, and after a little thought, he guessed Xiaoyu's intention, and smiled slyly.
After the fish was "placed", King Jing sat down and touched the fish. Li Yu could feel King King's heavy heart through the crystal bottle.
What's wrong? Wasn't it just a compliment, but a reprimand
"Your Highness, what's wrong with you?" Wang Xiyi asked worriedly.
King Jing shook his head lightly, and his eyes immediately moved outside the palace. Wang Xi understood that this was in the palace, and it was inconvenient for His Highness to tell him.
King Jing took a cup of tea and took Wang Xi and Li Yu out of the palace.
It was not until they returned to the palace that Wang Xi and Li Yu learned that the emperor not only did not reward King Jing for his birthday, but also wanted King Jing to live in the western border for a period of time.
In other words, the emperor's "reward" to King Jing was to make King Jing leave the imperial city.
What's going on, how could this be
Li Yu couldn't figure it out. The emperor was very happy when he saw the longevity character on the fish, and even proposed to hang Tang Yin's painting in the Qianqing Palace. Why did he suddenly turn his face on King Jing
He believes that he has no flaws, so there is still a problem with the fish array, or should he not be superfluous and dedicate the lotus to the emperor
But if this is not the case, when the fish array is scattered, the emperor will also be disappointed...
Hey, it's too hard to guess a fish in the heart of an emperor!
Li Yu self-examined, and Wang Xi was also injustice on behalf of King Jing. After chanting a few words, King Jing's eyes signaled Wang Xi to step down.
After the prince was gone, the more Li Yu thought about it, the more he felt that it was his own pot. The fish food and peach cake that Wang Xi fed him couldn't eat anymore, and he couldn't stop thinking about all the details since the birthday banquet.
He still couldn't figure it out. While complaining about himself, Li Yu caught a glimpse of King Jing sitting in front of the window with a small lamp, and the twilight made the young man's handsome face blurred.
It was getting late, and after a long day of exhaustion, King Jing didn't go to rest, maybe he was the same, he couldn't think about it and couldn't sleep.
It can't go on like this.
Li Yu shook his head and quickly turned into a human form where King Jing couldn't see. He walked to the window and called out "His Royal Highness" apologetically.
King Jing looked up to see him, with a smile in his eyes, he waved to him.
Li Yu suddenly realized that King Jing was waiting for him if he didn't rest.
"His Royal Highness, I'm sorry, I, I tried my best, and I don't know how this happened..."
Li Yu murmured and explained, feeling very aggrieved. It is not all said in the net article that the contestant wants to please the emperor, why is the fish's pleasing to the people, the emperor should not think that King Jing has begun to please himself, has ulterior motives
Why can't the luck of fish in some strange places be shared with King Jing
Seeing that he had misunderstood, King Jing shook his head again and again, took Li Yu's hand and patted it, and then pointed to the painting on the wall.
Li Yu guessed for a while before he roughly understood what the other party meant. King Jing said it was none of his business, and King Jing himself also sent the painting.
Li Yu took a breath and said uncertainly, "Your Highness really doesn't blame me?"
King Jing shook his head again and clenched his hand.
The few movements were difficult to express, King Jing kissed Li Yu on the lips, and he was about to hug Li Yu to his lap.
Li Yu: ? ?
Li Yu was shocked, when is this, King Jing is still thinking about tofu
Could it be because he was afraid that he would never come back in the future, so he wanted to eat like a crazy meal
It's like going to Changchun Palace suddenly, but also afraid that it will be inconvenient to pay homage in the future
Li Yu was very distressed, anyway, there are no other fish, but there is tofu, even if it makes King Jing happier.
Li Yu gritted his teeth and put his arms around King Jing's neck.
King Jing was slightly taken aback by his sudden initiative, smiled when he remembered something, straightened Li Yu's body, held Li Yu's hand, and spread out the pen and paper with him.
Li Yu's face turned red, it turned out that sitting like this was not to eat tofu, but... to write.
King Jing took him and wrote: "Thank you for your hard work, you are fine, don't worry. The royal father is not angry with me."
"Really?" Li Yu didn't quite believe it. "Then why did the emperor let His Highness leave?"
In the original book, it was mentioned that the West Frontier was not a wealthy place with poor mountains and bad waters. The emperor would never let King Jing go on a tour, would he
"My father did not cut my title." King Jing wrote heavily with a hint.
Li Yu chewed this sentence repeatedly, his eyes lit up, he didn't cut his rank, what did he mean by not cut his rank
The emperor hated the second prince, so he didn't even give him the king, only the second prince was given the title of Anhou, and the other princes, except for King Jing, have not yet been divided.
And King Jing's throne is actually the emperor's guilt and comfort for King Jing. If the emperor was really angry and exiled King Jing from the imperial city in a fit of anger, he would never have retained King Jing's title.
"Could it be—the emperor ordered His Royal Highness to go to the western frontier, not as punishment, but..."
Li Yu was about to blurt out, King Jing quickly put his finger on his lips and made a silent motion.
The emperor didn't say anything clearly, he just let him go to the western border, and he had a specific intention when he arrived.
King Jing himself was also puzzled. Later, he vaguely speculated about the emperor's intentions from the fact that the emperor still asked Luo Ruisheng to send him. He always felt that he could touch the edge, but he couldn't say it. Just take it.
Li Yu cooperated to cover his mouth, but his heart suddenly boiled.
Since ancient times, a father who kicked his son out was not a punishment, but a test.
In other words, why did the emperor test King Jing
Of course, when there is hope, there will be trials. In the past, the emperor rarely interfered with King Jing's life. In the final analysis, the emperor had no hope for King Jing, and naturally it didn't matter what King Jing was.
So now that there is hope, going to the West Frontier is not necessarily a bad thing.
Li Yu figured it out and smiled: "Your Highness, when are you going?"
King Jing wrote: "Right now, just two days. You stay in the mansion, and Wang Xi will take care of you."
Although King Jing felt that it was very likely that he had touched the emperor's mind, but the western frontier was barren, King Jing was reluctant to let Xiao Yu follow him there. Moreover, the car and horses were exhausted along the way. King Jing was also afraid that Xiaoyu would not be able to bear it, so he simply wanted Xiaoyu to stay in the imperial city.
He hasn't been very good to Xiaoyu, how can he let Xiaoyu suffer with him
Li Yu, who learned that he was about to stay: ? ?
Holy crap, King Jing is going to the Western Frontier, isn't that just sharing weal and woe
"His Royal Highness, no, I'll be where you are, I'm going to go with us!"
Li Yu said the standard answer aloud.
