The weather is getting colder, and Liu Jin's heart is even colder.
He couldn't figure out whether His Highness the Crown Prince was targeting him intentionally.
If so, that's all.
But His Highness would never think of it the moment Wang Hao finished speaking, or do it immediately after thinking about it. He must have thought about it in advance and just happened to be looking for Wang Hao to sue Li Guang.
This was very scary. Liu Jin thought about it and he hadn't done anything special during this time.
I felt that it really didn't make sense, so I took a chance. What if His Highness didn't mean it?
After all, His Highness is only seven or eight years old. How could a child come up with such a terrible plan? Even if you are an adult, this is a method that only a very serious person would use.
Liu Jin looked up at the prince again and found that everything on the child's face was as usual. He savored the taste of the fish with great interest, and then said, "Yes, it's delicious."
Gudong.
Liu Jin swallowed, closed his mouth and stood aside.
It was almost evening, and His Highness wanted to go to bed early.
Liu Jin secretly went to find Qiu Yun again.
Although a girl's family is not a top-notch Jinshi, but His Highness the Prince remembers her, then he cannot be like Zhang Tianrui who just sarcastically teases and bullies her when he has nothing to do.
So Liu Jin said kindly, "Miss Qiuyun, you have worked hard today."
Qiu Yun replied politely: "Eunuch Liu said something serious. Qiu Yun was saved by His Highness and was lucky enough to save his life. All these hard work are deserved."
"Well...Miss Qiuyun, your highness today..."
"What's wrong, Your Highness?"
"Did your Highness say anything to you? It was when I went to pass on the meal."
Qiu Yun's eyebrows flashed, and his sensitivity suddenly increased.
What does Liu Jin mean by asking?
In her understanding, the relationship between the prince and Liu Jin was unusual. After all, they had grown up with the prince.
How to ask her what the prince said?
Liu Jin is also a very observant person. As a little girl, her thoughts are naturally written on her face.
"Girl, don't think too much. You and I are trusted by His Highness, and we always think of His Highness's best in our hearts."
"His Highness only said that he wanted to eat fish." Qiu Yun thought for a while and said, it would not work if he said nothing. Liu Jin could not be easily offended.
His relationship with the prince is really extraordinary, and his position in the East Palace is also very important.
"What about the rest..."
"Your Highness is still young and hungry. Naturally, he kept talking about eating. He didn't talk to me, the slave serving tea, about the rest."
In this way, it would be difficult for Liu Jin to say anything.
This night was destined to be sleepless for him.
Because he was unsure of the prince's attitude towards him,
This is actually the most sensitive and dangerous.
In addition, Li Guang’s side must also be considered...
The morning in the East Palace was as usual, except that the rain had stopped, and there was still some water on the ground and broken leaves that had been knocked down by the rain, and the servants were already cleaning it up.
Zhu Houzhao stretched out in the morning sunshine and did a few stretching movements.
Liu Jin looked a little sluggish, with a somewhat tired look on his face. Staying up all night is something that, let alone a middle-aged man like him, is not good at. A 30-year-old social worker would have to recover for several days after doing it all night.
"Your Highness, do you need to pass on breakfast?"
"Well, pass it on." Zhu Houzhao suppressed his laughter, "What happened to you? Were you scared by the thunder last night?"
Qiu Yun on the side was holding back a chuckle.
Liu Jin thought about it all night but couldn't come up with a clue. The prince spoke to him so kindly, which made him even more uncomfortable: Your Highness, is that what you have in mind? You are still joking with the old slave!
"Go back to Your Highness, I just didn't have a good rest. There's nothing serious."
"Oh, okay." Zhu Houzhao naturally knew it well, "Well, let Zhang Yong come over to serve you today. It just so happens that I also want to learn archery from him."
Among the eunuchs, Zhang Yong was skilled in bow and horse and quite brave.
Liu Jin would never give up such an opportunity to anyone, so naturally he would accompany him.
So the ordinary morning of a noble in a feudal society started again. A group of people gathered around a child, serving him to dress and eat.
Others followed his orders and prepared bows, arrows and arrow targets for children.
After that, Zhu Houzhao moved to a pavilion outside the palace.
The eunuchs were still busy, so he sat in the pavilion and waited. Qiuyun would bring him tea when he was thirsty, and Dongyu would bring snacks when he was hungry.
In addition to eunuchs, palace maids, and minor officials like Yang Tinghe will also follow and keep records.
This is the first time His Highness is interested in archery.
When you grow up, you will regret that you did not learn or insist on learning a special skill when you were a child.
The same goes for Zhu Houzhao. Although he is not a fanatical fighter, he never wants to be just a weak emperor who studies. No matter how he rides on a horse, he must be majestic and majestic when he draws his bow and arrows.
I'm still young now, so it's just right to learn.
"Your Highness, please hold your bow and arrow."
Zhang Yong came up with his treasured bow, and Zhu Houzhao looked at him with eager eyes.
He also wanted to try what it means to be a teenager: holding the yellow on the left, holding the blue on the right, wearing a brocade hat and mink fur, and riding thousands of horses on the same hillock!
Following Zhang Yong's instructions, Zhu Houzhao turned sideways and stretched his bow, aiming with his eyes. He looked cute in his small form.
A few arrows were shot out, but most of them missed.
Liu Jin and Zhang Yong looked at each other, feeling embarrassed, but did not dare to say anything.
Zhu Houzhao is not in a hurry. It’s just the beginning anyway, so practice slowly.
Looking further into the distance, there are several pavilions. The pavilions are connected to the pavilions and extend above the surface of the pond.
Yang Tinghe is right over there, always not far or close.
It was nothing at first, but when I drew my bow and nocked an arrow again, my eyes turned that way, and I suddenly felt that something was wrong.
His brows furrowed slightly.
Liu Jin is a very good judge of expressions, "Your Highness, are you feeling tired?"
Zhu Houzhao put down his bow and looked at Yang Tinghe's position suspiciously. It was indeed different from before.
But I couldn't remember it, and felt strange in my heart.
When he raised the bow again, his mind was still uncertain.
correct!
"Where's Zhang Tianrui?"
Liu Jin and others felt their hearts sinking, it was bad!
How could His Highness remember a sixth-grade official he didn't like?
…
…
Outside the palace.
Wang Hao bumped into Mr. Xie Ge again.
"What did your Highness say?"
Wang Hao frowned in confusion, "I just said...I understand."
"Eh..." Mr. Xie Ge was also unsure, "I just knew? What does this mean?"
Wang Hao guessed: "Perhaps as Yu Qiao said, there is really a wise person behind the prince. But the prince only said that he knew, so maybe he hasn't discussed it yet?"
"Perhaps. Li Guang has done a lot of harm and has won the trust of His Majesty. How easy is it to bring him down? The East Palace has changed its usual behavior recently. I originally thought that if there is someone behind it, it would be good as long as I can help. Now look We can only wait any longer, no matter what, we must find an opportunity to eradicate Li Guang!"
"I see that Yang Tinghe is very close to His Highness." Wang Hao thought of the scene he saw that day.
"Oh? Is there such a thing?" Xie Qian was a little surprised, "Mr. Xu Ge asked him face to face that day, and Yang Jiefu didn't miss a single word. Could it be that he is a very thoughtful person?"
"It's just a guess. I often go to the East Palace and may have contact with him in the future. Then I will observe this person carefully."
Xie Qian thought for a while and felt that this was all he could do now. As for his heart, he kept thinking silently: Yang Tinghe...
