morning thoughts

Ling Chao looked embarrassed, not because he really wanted to hide anything from Ji Yu, but because he didn't know how to speak.

Ji Yu nodded in understanding, looked at him and took two steps back with his hands behind his back, and said, "Get some rest earlier, I'll come see you tomorrow."

Ling Chao was slightly startled, Ji Yu wasn't angry and didn't even frown, but he still keenly sensed that Ji Yu was depressed, and he didn't know what mood he was in, so he wanted to get rid of everything in an instant.

"It's Ji Xiu," Ling Chao looked at Ji Yu nervously.

Considering that Ji Xiu has never been suspicious, it is normal for courtiers to change occasionally, not to mention that Ling Chao can grow up in this palace, so it is not surprising that he will have some tricks.

Recalling the exquisite appearance in Shihualou, it is not surprising that he can do such a cold-hearted thing.

What's more, Ji Xiu has been looking for opportunities to make friends with the prince, but how can ordinary people fall into the eyes of the prince, just when there is no way to ask for help, and it happens that Ling Yu is a person who likes to indulge, so Ji Xiu, Qian Yue and others have a relationship with Ling Yu. Yusi mixed together.

It is naturally more secure to have the double backing of the general and the crown prince, but Qian Yue's matter was exposed, the commander was implicated, and the general backed down frequently at this time.

Those who wanted to follow the way of the prince had to re-evaluate the situation. Before things turned around, His Majesty pushed Ling Chao out again, and it was just around the corner when he entered the court when he became an adult.

If so, how could a Ji Xiu persuade Ling Yu to do such a rebellious thing? Ji Yu turned his eyes and said in a low voice, "Your Highness was frightened and injured today, so he should rest earlier."

"I didn't mean to hide it from you," Ling Chao let out a long breath, staring at the roof and said in a hoarse voice, "I just told my son, don't you want to be angry with me."

Ji Yu raised his eyebrows, and sat in front of Ling Chao with his usual expression. There were only three things to do, and Ji Yu used the trick of retreating to advance, but he knew that he had to restrain himself. He didn't see any joy on his face, but he couldn't help it in his heart Once again, he sighed at the simplicity and deceitfulness of His Highness the Third Highness.

Ling Chao opened his mouth and said guiltily, "Golden Stone Medicine."

Ling Chaosheng was afraid that Ji Yu would despise him for doing so, and felt that he was a dirty person, so he hung his breath after he finished speaking, and he couldn't get up or down.

Taking Jinshi medicine can make people feel dry and hot, their personality changes suddenly, and they produce hallucinations. Ji Yu was stunned, why didn't he expect that his eyes were bright when he looked at Ling Chao again.

Under his gaze, Ling Chao slowly fixed his gaze, and the courage he had just wanted to confess all of a sudden disappeared.

Pretending to be calm, he sorted out the context of the matter, and told Ji Xiu's story to Ji Yu, but in fact Ji Yu didn't ask about the slightly ambiguous parts.

Ling Chao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I didn't inform you in advance, but I was afraid that Ji Xiu might change his mind."

Ji Yu laughed lightly and teased: "Your Highness's idea is right."

Ji Xiu has always been humble in front of Ling Yu, but Ling Yu's unhappiness in being assassinated gave Ji Xiu a chance to strike.

Ji Yu tilted his head slightly, his eyes fell on his wound, and said, "Your Highness is more open than I imagined."

Ling Chao and Ji Yu looked at each other, and they tacitly stopped talking about it.

"Ling Yu's foundation in the court is not shallow. As long as the general does not fall for a day, he will always have a chance." Ling Chao turned sideways and hummed softly: "The prince has been on guard against him for a long time, but compared to me The crown prince wants to use him more, if we don't provoke them at this time, I'm afraid we won't find such a good time again."

Ji Yu half clenched his fists, rubbing his fingers at the tiger's mouth. Ling Chao's words were true, and when they reacted and counterattacked, it wasn't just him and Ling Chao who would be implicated.

"The things outside have to be done by the prince."

"There will be results in a few days. By the way, Your Highness, since Ji Xiu is used by His Highness, I wonder if His Highness knows who did Qian Yue's matter, or has any clues?"

Eyelashes fluttered slightly, Ling Chao let out a "huh" and said blankly, "I don't know."

Ling Chao nodded and watched Ji Yu leave, his tense body relaxed, and the pain hit him, he took two hissing breaths, and felt that the wound was burning, and he didn't know what medicine the imperial doctor used, but he couldn't stand it pain.

The emperor imprisoned Ling Yu. Seeing that he was full of alcohol and talking wildly, he didn't know how to deal with it. After hearing the news, Concubine De took off her hairpin and knelt outside the palace and cried all night. After the emperor's decree came down, the note about Second Highness Ling Yu's dissatisfaction with the prince's words was sent to the emperor.

"Tsk, bad luck." Ji Yu's voice came from behind the screen, and immediately threw the medicine bottle in his hand towards Ling Chao, "This medicine was brought from Lichuan."

Ling Chao took the medicine bottle with one hand, looked at Ji Yu with a frown, and said, "Today's news is a big deal, this note should have been handed over to the crown prince, but now the crown prince will ignore it and let the note pass it on." Going up can be regarded as a statement of position.”

After the two looked at each other for a while, Ji Yu said slowly, "Let's see how His Majesty will deal with him."

The emperor imprisoned Ling Yu in the mansion, and he was not allowed to go out. He also slowly handed over Ling Yu's affairs in the court to Ling Chao. After getting along with the prince for a period of time, the prince no longer made things difficult for Ling Chao.

After Ling Yu's incident, the crown prince and Ling Yu also parted ways. For him, Ling Chao was powerless, and Ji Yu was out of control. These two people were not available.

Concubine De tried her best to choose a gift for Ling Chao, and hinted frequently in front of the emperor, but the emperor never opened his mouth to release Ling Yu's restraint.

In the blink of an eye, it was Ling Chao's birthday.

The Zhaohui Palace was lively, the master was overjoyed, and the servants naturally followed suit. The servants who had just received the reward came out of the Zhaohui Palace, and saw a few face-to-face young eunuchs struggling to carry a box and stopped in front of the gate of the Zhaohui Palace. .

"Eunuch, this is a congratulatory gift from Concubine De to His Highness the Third Highness, please accept it with a smile."

Hearing the word congratulations, the slave didn't think too much, nodded and asked someone to carry it in.

After Ling Chao and Ji Yu returned from greeting the emperor, they frowned when they saw a box parked under the eaves, and asked, "Where did this box come from? How did it come here?"

Yun An hurriedly beckoned, and called a palace man over and asked, "Where did you get it?"

When things came in, the people in the courtyard could hear them clearly, they would be asked about it, and they would answer truthfully: "It's a congratulatory gift from Concubine De's palace."

Ling Chao and Ji Yu looked at each other for a moment, feeling suspicious in their hearts, the concubine concubine concubine concubine had already been given by the emperor just now, and it would still be in Yun An's hands.

After the box was opened, Ling Chao took a few steps back in shock, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.

"Why..." Ji Yu didn't finish his question, when he caught a glimpse of the contents in the box, his whole body became cold: "Throw this box out!"

If others saw these dead cats, they would only feel bad luck, but Ji Yu knew what Ling Chao had experienced when he was young, so he was naturally angry.

Ling Chao's face turned pale, and he raised his hand to stop him: "This person sent it under the name of Concubine De, because he was afraid that we would not accept it. No matter how stupid Ling Yu was, he would not dare to do such a thing. I'm afraid Someone planted it."

Ji Yu came to his senses and returned the box to the Palace of Concubine De.

"How is Your Highness?"

But in a short while, Ling Chao's face was unharmed, and his mind calmed down. Now that he saw these things not as scary as when he was a child, but he still had lingering fears, he waved his hand and said, "Let's go, Father is still waiting for us. "

The two returned to the table, Concubine De didn't see anything unusual, presumably she didn't know about it yet, Ji Yu sat opposite Ling Chao and watched him get up frequently to socialize, and ate alone.

After drinking for three rounds, the emperor slightly drunk raised his glass to Concubine Shu from the air, and said, "Concubine Shu, you have taken good care of Chao'er, I am very relieved."

Concubine Shu immediately got up to thank her, but the emperor waved his hand to give up, and his eyes fell on Wei Chengji again, and said: "Wei Aiqing."

Wei Chengji got up to salute, then knelt down.

The emperor raised his hand slightly, motioning him to come forward, and when he stepped forward, he leaned over and asked drunkenly: "What do Wei Aiqing think of the Third Highness?"

In an instant, the banquet fell silent.

Yun An reminded in a low voice: "Third Highness."

Ling Chao's eyes brightened slightly, as if he couldn't believe it. The emperor wanted Wei Chengji to take Ling Chao with him. Ling Chao had heard a lot about Wei Chengji since he was a child, and he was the crown prince's master of riding and archery.

Wei Cheng inherited the court uniform of a military officer, knelt there but did not lose his prestige, his sword eyebrows were sharp and his eyes were not angry, he looked back at Ling Chao, and after a while he cupped his fists and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the Third Highness is His Majesty's prince, naturally Not bad."

He has always been a person who will not flatter horses and go straight. The emperor has long understood his virtue, and now he says that it is not bad, so he agrees.

Seeing this, Ling Chao got up and walked to the front, bowed to the emperor to thank him, and then respectfully bowed to Wei Chengji.

Ling Chao said: "Thanks to General Wei's love, please accept Ling Chao's respect."

Wei Chengji is straightforward but not stupid, how could he really dare to be worshiped by the prince, so he hurriedly blocked Ling Chao, raised his hand and pressed Ling Chao's shoulder, and said: "When you are in the army, I will not care about your Highness I hope His Highness will not regret it when the time comes."

Ling Chao's injury had just healed, and it hurt again after being slapped by Wei Chengji like this, but he didn't even wrinkle his eyebrows, and said humbly: "If there is something wrong, please don't show mercy, General."

Wei Chengji knew that he was injured, but it was just a test. If he was really a weak and crooked prince, he would not really take him with him, so he nodded in satisfaction.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the emperor raised Ling Chao's status a step further.

After the banquet was over, Ling Chao was a little drunk, and the drunk Ling Chao didn't make trouble. He stumbled up to Ji Yu, stretched out his hand and yelled softly: "Even Ling Jun gave me a birthday gift, why don't you give me anything?" No?"

Ji Yu lowered his head and looked at him, with two blushes on his cheeks, his eyes were like clear springs reflecting the Milky Way, his lips were white and his teeth were very beautiful.

Ji Yu gently supported his body, for fear that he would fall, which would make Ling Chao feel uncomfortable. After muttering a few words, he boldly touched the gift in Ji Yu's arms.

Ji Yu was helpless by his troubles, stopped his fidgeting hands, took out the jade pendant he had prepared in advance from his bosom, bent down and tied it around his waist, and said: "This is the gift from the minister to His Highness."

The author has something to say: Your Highness is taking advantage of the prince when he gets drunk! !
