Zhong Mingzheng looked at the glass of wine handed to him, and then at Zhong Ming'e, who had a faint smile on his face, for a long while. He took the glass of wine without a word, and drank it down.
Zhong Ming'e also drank it down in one gulp, and then put the wine glass on the table. He clasped his fists and said to Zhong Mingzheng, "Farewell!"
Without waiting for Zhong Mingzheng's reaction, Zhong Ming'e picked up the cloak. Turn around and leave the gazebo. Then went down the mountain road.
"Your Highness, your complexion is not very good," Ling Shian walked over. Seeing Zhong Mingzheng's gloomy complexion, he said worriedly, "Do you feel uncomfortable somewhere?"
"What has the fourth prince been up to lately?" Zhong Mingzheng looked at Zhong Ming'e who was walking slowly down the mountain. asked slowly.
"Fourth prince, he... He often goes to the imperial study to accompany him recently." Ling Shi'an was startled, wondering why Zhong Mingzheng suddenly asked Zhong Mingrong, and said after thinking about it. "It seems that after the death of the Queen Mother, Long Live Lord has been in a depressed mood. He doesn't like to go to the harem very much, but he likes to play games with the fourth prince. Now except for Concubine Hui, that is, the fourth prince goes to the imperial study frequently. gone."
"What else?" Zhong Mingzheng asked again. His face was uglier than before.
"What else... What?" Ling Shi'an muttered, he really didn't know what Zhong Mingzheng was asking.
"Who does the fourth prince meet with in private? What do they talk about? Do the fourth prince and the Zhao family move around frequently? What did the father say to the fourth prince?" Zhong Mingzheng said coldly, "Do you have any of these things?" do you know?"
"This... this subordinate is not clear." Ling Shi'an whispered. He was very surprised in his heart, Zhong Mingzheng has always loved Zhong Mingrong's younger brother very much, and since the imperial concubine passed away, he has loved him even more, but listening to Zhong Mingzheng's tone, it seems... There is no sense of love at all, no matter how you listen to it, he loves him even more. It seemed that Zhong Mingzheng was hostile to Zhong Mingrong.
"Then go find out!" Zhong Mingzheng turned his head suddenly, and met Ling Shi'an coldly, "I'll find out when he wakes up every day, who he sees, and what he says. Don't miss a single word, or I will Take your head off, do you hear me clearly?"
"Yes, this subordinate obeys!" Ling Shi'an hurriedly bowed.
…
That night.
Royal study.
"Father, can't you let me give way to my son?" The fourth prince Zhong Mingrong looked at Zhong Zhiheng with a wrinkled face, muttering, complaining and acting coquettishly, "Every time I win so much from my son." , you don’t get tired of it? My son is tired of losing!”
"Hahaha! How else can I make you, I have allowed you to regret the game three times! You are still not satisfied!" Zhong Zhiheng laughed loudly, and while throwing the chess piece in the chess jar, he stretched out his hand and pinched Zhong Mingrong's fair skin. Nose, "You greedy little thing."
"Hey, my son is not greedy. My father is the ninth and fifth son of heaven. This world belongs to my father. I just want to follow my father to enjoy the blessings. What is there to be greedy for?" Zhong Ming Rong laughed and crawled from the side of the couch to Zhong Zhiheng's back, then gave Zhong Zhiheng a squeeze on his shoulders, and smiled apologetically, "Father must be exhausted after approving paperwork all day long. Royal father."
"You little thing," Zhong Zhiheng sighed comfortably, patted Zhong Mingrong's hand, and said with a smile, "You just enjoy life blindly, and you don't want to share the worries for the father? old."
"Father is in the prime of life! In another ten years, he will still be as fierce as dragon and tiger, so there is no need for the son to share his worries. The son hopes that the father will live forever, and then the son will just hide in the father's place." Just enjoy the blessings after death, hehe," Zhong Mingrong pinched more vigorously, and said, "Besides, there are still royal brothers who share the worries of the father, so it's not the son's turn."
