Injustice is a small matter, but starvation is a major matter. Search: \(¨¨¨¨¨) Watch fine literature for free Lou Jing picked up a small spoon and scooped up the fish in the bowl, finally comforting her hungry body.

"The effect of the medicine will wear off after a while, just bear with it." Xiao Chengjun used cloth chopsticks to put some vegetables in the bowl for him, and then changed to his own chopsticks to eat slowly.

Lou Jing looked at the dishes in the bowl, and then at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who was eating seriously... Xiao Chengjun actually gave him vegetables! The Crown Prince, will you serve others

"Don't you like this?" Xiao Chengjun saw him staring blankly at the vegetables in the bowl, thought he didn't like this, so he changed his chopsticks and picked some fried meat for him.

"I'm not picky about food." Lou Jing shook her head hastily, and ate vegetables and meat with a spoon, holding the rice bowl with mixed feelings in her heart. Seeing the unfamiliar look of the prince, it is obvious that he seldom does these things. Since his mother passed away, no one has taken care of him so attentively.

Seeing that he was really not picky eaters, Xiao Chengjun felt relieved, took a few bites by himself, and then brought some vegetables for him.

After lunch, lying on the new bed covered with a bright red silk quilt, although she was a little tired, Lou Jing couldn't fall asleep. Xiao Chengjun went to the Chongwen Museum, presumably to discuss the morning with the East Palace officials.

When Taizu founded the country, many princes and kings with different surnames were conferred. At that time, the border was in turmoil, and the remnants of the previous dynasty were not exhausted. Taizu and Taizong were both heroic and warlike monarchs. Naturally, there will be no major problems in governing the country like this. It's a pity that Emperor Taizong died young, leaving Sejong who was only seven years old. The queen mother controlled the government, but she couldn't govern the country, which caused chaos in the court.

Later, when the vassal king entered Beijing, Sejong survived because he was hidden in a rice jar by an old eunuch. Therefore, while Sejong hated women's involvement in politics, he was very concerned about the loyalty of eunuchs, so he set up a separate Ministry of Internal Affairs, and quasi-eunuchs participated in part of the government affairs. After so many years, eunuchs have taken advantage of the advantages of their emperor's close ministers, and the power of the Ministry of Internal Affairs has continued to expand until today...

"My lord, why haven't you slept yet?" Xun Xia, who came in quietly to add fragrance, saw the person on the bed with his eyes open, so he couldn't help asking, "But the wound hurts again?"

"It doesn't hurt." After saying this, Lou Jing realized that the anesthetic for those three hours had passed, but she didn't feel any pain on her body.

"Would you like me to show you?" Xun Xia added spices to the incense burner made of colorful colored glaze, and walked to the bed.

"Alright." Lou Jing sat up slowly, unbuttoned his clothes, and showed Xun Xia some of his back. After applying the medicine last night, he felt that the injured area was a little more relaxed, unlike a few days ago. As tense.

The Chongwen Hall is the place where the prince studied, including the Daguan where the Tai Tuo and his attendants taught lessons, and the study room where Xiao Chengjun wrote and reviewed memorials.

The large study room is a suite, and the center is divided into two parts, the inside and the outside, by a Duobaoge. Books are collected on the outside, and the bookshelves carved in huanghuali wood are full of blue-covered books, and the desk and the four treasures of the study are placed inside.

"Your Highness, Shen Lian is so arrogant, if this continues, there will be chaos in the court."

"No, Shen Lian is now the emperor's favorite, and it's not good for us to fight against him now!"

Xiao Chengjun sat silently behind the desk, listening to the three counselors speaking one after another without saying a word.

"What's the use of talking about it now!" One person waved his hand and interrupted the chatter of the other two impatiently, "It's not the most important thing about Shen Lian, the key is why the right minister helped Shen Lian speak this morning, and why the left minister Not saying a word? Someone must have known about this before, why didn't anyone write a book to stop it?"

The tone of the speech was hot and fiery, but every word pointed to the main point. Xiao Chengjun raised his head and glanced at the speaker. It was Zhan Shi, the young master of Zhan Shifu—Cai Yi.

The official ranks of the East Palace are not high, the highest is Zhan Shifu Zhan Shi, who holds the third-rank title, and also holds the post of Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

Xiao Chengjun nodded slightly, "That's right." He didn't care what happened to Shen Lian. After all, the emperor's father did not trust eunuchs for a day or two. The key lies in the attitudes of the two prime ministers. Is there any collusion between them? If Shen Lian was on the side of the Chen family, it would be very unfavorable to the East Palace. What role did Prime Minister Zuo play in this matter

Coming out of the Chongwen Hall, Xiao Chengjun was still thinking about this matter, and walked into the inner room of the Eight Phoenix Hall calmly, and heard a clear and delicate exclamation, "Ah, the color has faded a lot!"

Shouldn't the princess be asleep at this time? How could there be a woman's voice

Xiao Chengjun couldn't help frowning, turned around the screen, and saw his princess's clothes were half-uncovered and her back was exposed, the maid named Xun Xia was about to reach out to touch his skin.

"What are you doing?" Feeling that this scene was very dazzling, there was a coldness in Xiao Chengjun's voice that he didn't notice.

Xun Xia was taken aback, and immediately withdrew the hand that hadn't touched it, and when he saw who was coming, he knelt down, "His Royal Highness, Wan'an."

"Your Highness is back." Lou Jing looked back to see Xiao Chengjun who was expressionless, smiled and pulled up his clothes, got out of bed and saluted him, "I asked Xun Xia to show me how the injury on my back is doing."

Xiao Chengjun waved Xun Xia out, and sat on the bed with the princess.

"Since Your Highness is back, let's sleep for a while," Lou Jing said and wanted to continue lying down, but His Highness the Crown Prince sat still. The prince is the husband, he is the wife, how can the prince sleep first if he sits on the side of the bed

Lou Jing took a look at Xiao Chengjun. Although the expression on His Royal Highness's face was always the same, there was some emotion in those eyes. For example, His Highness seems to be a little unhappy now.

Could it be that those East Palace officials were too useless and offended him? Lou Jing looked at the soft quilt behind him, then at the crown prince who was as stable as Mount Tai, then smiled and moved closer, "Then, let me help His Highness change." Saying that, she stretched out her hand to His Highness's apricot yellow uniform.

Xiao Chengjun didn't speak, just looked at the inner shirt on the Crown Princess. The thin shirt woven with snow-coloured brocade has only two buttons on the front, and the lower part of the neck is half open, revealing the beautifully shaped collarbone. He is already married to him, how can he show his body to the court lady? Thinking of the scene he saw just now when he entered the door, His Highness the Crown Prince's expression turned a little dark.

If you don't speak, you will acquiesce. Lou Jing pursed her lips, and untied the jade belt around his waist in twos and twos. With a light pull, the outer robe fell apart, "Your Highness, are you worried about Shen Lian?" Before getting married, The eunuch Si Li also specially taught him how to take off the prince's clothes.

When Xiao Chengjun came back, the outer robe on his body had already been taken off, and his concubine was pulling his middle coat down, "Yes," replied vaguely, the crown prince pulled down his belt, lifted his Move your legs into the bed, and take a nap, so you don't have to take off your shirt, "What I care about is the attitude of those civil servants."

Seeing His Royal Highness lying down obediently, Lou Jing was satisfied, put down the curtain and lay down on the pillow, yawned and said, "It's just throwing stones to ask for directions."

"What did you say?" Xiao Chengjun was taken aback for a moment, and turned his head suddenly, just in time to meet the face of Lou Jing who just lay down.

Lou Jing blinked, and seeing the surprise in His Highness's eyes, she knew she was right, "Civil officials pay attention to the golden mean, if you don't want to be with them, and don't want to cause trouble, naturally you should push someone out first. Experiment with depth."

Although his grandfather didn't like those civil servants, he asked him to learn from them, how to do a lot of immoral things and be praised by history books.

Xiao Chengjun's eyes lit up, such a simple truth, they thought it was too complicated. Chen Shichang, the right minister, was always vigilant. He didn't say those words to help Shen Lian, but he just saw that his father was a little bit annoyed, so he stepped down a step and sold face to Shen Lian by the way. But this kind of action will definitely cause dissatisfaction among the Qingliu faction, so maybe it can be used well.

Lou Jing looked at His Highness the Crown Prince with interest. First, she was thinking quietly with a blank face, then her deep dark eyes suddenly lit up, and then the corners of her lips curved slightly. It's like a proud cat, suddenly remembering where it hid the dried fish last time, happy in its heart but afraid that others will find out, so it just wags the tip of its tail quietly.

I really want to reach out and touch it, Lou Jing thought so, and stretched out her hand over there.

"Prince Qi, Princess Concubine, Your Highness the Fourth Prince is here to pay a visit." Chang En's voice came from outside the door, Lou Jing was startled, and the hand he had just stretched out froze halfway.

"Let him wait a moment." Xiao Chengjun responded and sat up.

Lou Jing lowered her arms dejectedly, hugging the pillow unwillingly, "I haven't fallen asleep yet."

Xiao Chengjun glanced at him, "What have you been doing for so long before?" Halfway through speaking, his tone became cold, and only then did he remember that he hadn't questioned him about undressing in front of the maid.

"Hmm..." Lou Jing buried her face in the quilt, trying not to remember that several court ladies had already entered the room to help them get dressed.

Xiao Chengjun swallowed the words that came to his lips, and decided to discuss the rules of the palace with the princess at night.

In the afternoon, it shouldn't be so early, but since the fourth prince is here, as an elder brother, he can't continue to sleep with his wife and let his younger brother wait.

In the main hall of the Eight Phoenix Hall, everyone was dressed, only one person wearing the dark yellow prince's uniform, sitting on a chair with his legs crossed and drinking tea, was the fourth prince Xiao Chengzheng.

Xiao Chengzheng looks very strong, Xu Shi often rides horses outside to practice martial arts, his whole body is tanned, he doesn't look like a pampered prince at all, but like a young general carrying a flag. Seeing the prince and princess coming out of the inner room, the fourth prince jumped up from the chair immediately and saluted them.

"Why are you here so early?" Xiao Chengjun sat down in his seat.

"Hehe, I was in a hurry to ask for my sister-in-law's red envelope, so I ran here without checking the time." Xiao Chengzheng scratched his head embarrassingly.

Lou Jing smiled and gave him a big red envelope, thinking that the four princes and the crown prince were raised by the empress's side, so they would naturally be kinder, but this temper was a bit too straightforward.

"Thank you, sister-in-law!" Xiao Chengzheng picked it up cheerfully. The fifteen-year-old boy smiled brightly.

"The third prince has arrived—" Before he could say anything, another loud voice came from outside the door.
