When the prince saw Qiao Tianjing's serious expression, his heart immediately lifted.
He pressed his right hand calmly, Qiao Tianjing nodded clearly, and turned to talk about insignificant things.
The two of them walked out for a long time. Eunuch Huang watched respectfully at the door. When he saw that no one was in sight, he turned and returned to the imperial study.
Seeing that the Holy Emperor was looking at the portrait of Princess Yuliu again, Eunuch Huang couldn't help but sigh.
"Your Majesty, everyone is gone."
"Um."
Emperor Yong sat on his seat and nodded indifferently.
When Eunuch Huang saw this, he stopped talking.
He just saw that the fourth prince seemed to have noticed the paper basket in the corner. It was the calligraphy practice post sent yesterday afternoon. It looked like he had put some thought into it.
In fact, sometimes even Eunuch Huang, who knew Emperor Yong best, couldn't understand why Emperor Yong was so obsessed with Princess Yuliu.
She is indeed a rare beauty in the world, with ice muscles and jade bones, like a goddess.
But she was very indifferent to the Holy Father, and it seemed that her heart was not here.
But the Holy One just used his heart and lost his soul. More than ten years later, he still can't let go. He even treats the Queen, the Prince and the Fourth Prince very indifferently because of this.
"What have you been busy with lately?" Emperor Yong's voice sounded faintly.
Eunuch Huang was thinking a little too deeply and was startled by the deep voice. Fortunately, Emperor Yong was all focused on the portrait and did not notice his misconduct.
"Going back to your Majesty, the second prince seems to have become more and more quiet after the Lantern Festival. He has met Mr. Sheng Lang of the Duke of Qing's Mansion these days."
Emperor Yong finally turned his face slightly.
"Sheng Mingcheng? That's just a playboy. The second child should look down on him."
Eunuch Huang immediately flattered him, "Yes, I look at the second prince with high eyes, so Sheng Mingcheng can't catch the second prince's eyes."
Emperor Yong snorted obediently, and then said: "If there is anything interesting happening in the capital recently, please tell Yu Liu."
Eunuch Huang has long been accustomed to this.
The Holy Sage often treated the portrait of Empress Yuliu as if she were a living person. He was worried that the empress would be bored, and always asked him to inquire about some interesting things.
Eunuch Huang searched his mind and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Go back to your Majesty, back to your empress, there is really an interesting story."
"This year's Capital Poetry Festival produced a talented girl. She is the ten-year-old daughter of Shilang Meng's family. Her name is Meng Guxue."
Emperor Yong raised his eyebrows slightly, "Oh, talented girl? He Shinian is here."
Eunuch Huang immediately read out the poem written by Meng Guxue with great emotion and emotion.
Emperor Yong tasted it carefully and nodded, "It is much better than those sour and rotten poems, but where did the Xiongnu and Wuding River come from?"
Eunuch Huang hurriedly recounted what happened at the poetry meeting. Hearing that the prince had made a conclusion, Emperor Yong no longer cared.
"Shilang Meng's daughter is really good at poetry. As a favor to the Dragon Boat Festival Palace banquet, let his daughter come too."
Officials have different grades, and there are certain numbers of people who can go to palace banquets.
The minister is of the fourth rank and can only have one female dependent, usually his wife.
Eunuch Huang hurriedly agreed and wrote it down secretly.
Emperor Yong was silent for a while and then asked: "Has Chun Wei Yijia's article been submitted?"
Eunuch Huang immediately took out a few posts from the case and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I submitted them early in the morning, and they are here."
Emperor Yong lowered his eyes and said calmly: "Let the prince come and have a look tomorrow morning."
The prince saw that Yijia's article was reasonable, and Eunuch Huang hurriedly bowed in response.
But Emperor Yong quickly added, "Make a copy and send it to the second child."
Eunuch Huang's face showed a little surprise, this was a bit out of line, but he did not dare to say anything and only dared to accept the order.
After making these arrangements, Emperor Yong waved his hand and said, "Go out. No one can come in without my instructions."
Eunuch Huang knew that the Holy One was going to be alone with Princess Yuliu again.
Before he exited, he specifically asked for instructions, "Your Majesty, how should we deal with Di Zaiying today?"
Emperor Yong waved his hand impatiently, "Check, pull out all the eyeliner that should be pulled out, and then check his true identity."
Huang Eunuch said yes, bowed and slowly backed out. Just as he was about to close the palace door, Emperor Yong's deep voice suddenly came over.
"Huang Pei, don't touch anyone who shouldn't be touched, and don't let the prince interfere."
When Huang Pei heard this, his shoulders trembled slightly and he nodded respectfully.
The moment the palace door closed, Eunuch Huang slowly breathed out a sigh of relief.
He naturally knew who the "people who should not be touched" the Holy One mentioned were the spies that the Holy One had connived with the second prince to plant in various palaces over the years.
Nowadays, the prince's virtuous character is admired by everyone, but the Holy Emperor dotes on and favors the second prince so much. From now on... what should we do?
There was a hint of fear on Eunuch Huang's face, but he quickly suppressed it.
Only by pretending to be deaf and dumb can you live longer when you are around the Holy One.
————
When the prince saw that Qiao Tianjing had something serious to do, he took a detour and sent the fourth prince back first.
Before leaving, the fourth prince looked at Qiao Jiaojiao reluctantly.
"Have I not seen Sister Qiao for a long time again?" the fourth prince said aggrievedly.
Qiao Jiaojiao was very grateful to the fourth prince for covering up the rebound talisman for her, and it was rare that she didn't say anything bad about the fourth prince.
[You kid, live a good life, there will be many opportunities to meet you in the future. 】
When Qiao Tianjing heard this, he thought of Qiao Jiaojiao's previous speculation and said with a serious face: "Your Highness, the fourth prince is young, so he should be protected more."
The prince nodded solemnly, "Da Lang's words are right, and I know it well."
The fourth prince took hold of Qiao's delicate little hand, which was soft and soft.
He suddenly laughed and said: "Last time, the prince brother said that he could not hold my sister until my Dragon Boat Festival birthday."
"I tried it today, and it turned out to be difficult. I want to eat well and grow taller. Then I can be like the Qiao family's elder brother and easily pick up Sister Qiao!"
His words were full of childlike innocence, which took away some of the gloom on the faces of the prince and Qiao Tianjing.
Qiao Jiaojiao glanced at him sideways.
[Fool, you will grow up and I will grow up, but you still won’t be able to hold me. 】
The Fourth Prince said goodbye to Qiao Jiaojiao seriously, "Sister Qiao, let's see you at the Dragon Boat Festival Palace Banquet."
Qiao Jiaojiao barked at him twice, taking it as an agreement.
[I know, I know, he’s such a little talker. 】
The prince personally sent the fourth prince back and led Qiao Dalang out.
The palace road was extremely empty, and there were no ears or eyes on either side.
Seeing this, Qiao Tianjing lowered his voice and said, "Your Highness, I have something serious to report one day."
The prince looked solemn and said, "Here comes the great man."
Qiao Tianjing followed the words discussed with his father at home and spoke cautiously:
"Your Highness, do you remember the Zhuozhou student who came on stage to confront me on the night of the Lantern Festival?"
