Dressed as a man with the eldest son

25

Nan Ruo was supposed to leave the palace and go back to the mansion when the men and women came back, but because of Fu Zhuo's disturbance during the day, he stayed back under the pretext of being injured.

Sure enough, the crown prince covered it up for him. The palace only knew that he was teased by Fu Zhuo, but did not know his counterattack later.

Moreover, when he went to look for Fu Zhuo, he was turned away and no one was seen. He didn't know whether he was angry and didn't want to see him, or he had learned a lesson and avoided reflection.

Nan Ruo didn't have the spirit of paying attention to the thatched cottage, so he sent a message to Fu An.

Everyone in the palace knew that he had a bad relationship with Fu Zhuo, and he was occasionally teased in the past, so no one cared too much about it, and at most it deepened the impression of their feud.

When Xia Houchun heard the news, he immediately ran to see him. Seeing the injury on his foot, he rolled up his sleeves angrily and wanted to find Fu Zhuo to ask him to apologize, but Nan Ruo persuaded him.

But looking at his eyeballs rolling, you know that he must be thinking of punishing the other party.

This time Nan Ruo didn't try to persuade him, Xia Houchun wouldn't be at a disadvantage if his status was suppressed anyway, what he was afraid of was that he would cause an accident due to impulsiveness.

He still has many things to prepare.

Such as checking the pets of the little princess.

Before leaving, Princess Changle entrusted her pet to Xiao Ruogu, and now that she is coming back, he has to check to see if there is any problem.

Since Nan Ruo said that his leg injury needs to be recuperated, he couldn't show up in person, so he just asked Zhang Xian and Qian Chuan to go to Nangong Mansion to bring the pets here.

Yes, move in.

Princess Changle's pet is a turtle.

It was brought here as a tribute from the vassal state, and it was called the longevity tortoise. When it was delivered, it was only the size of a palm, but as it grew, it grew bigger and bigger, and now it has exceeded a hundred catties.

And the carapace is not as smooth as ordinary turtles, but has regular protrusions, like the armor of a beast in the game, and the exposed four claws are like saw teeth and scales. If you don't look at the turtle shell, it looks like a dinosaur.

Nan Ruo has seen this kind of tortoise. In his previous life, he knew a rich second generation who was keen on raising tortoises. There was a tortoise farm abroad, where he raised all kinds of tortoises, big and small. He often posted interesting stories about raising tortoises on his Moments.

It's just that he didn't remember the turtle's name, was it Suka or Suka? (all wrong)

Forget it, it doesn't matter, he just needs to remember that he is called Longevity Turtle right now.

"Bean sprouts, come here."

Nan Ruo teased it with a vegetable leaf, and its ferocious monster-like body came out of the warm nest, slowly crawled towards him, and clicked the vegetable leaf in its mouth.

Nan Ruo reached out and touched his back armor.

This is considered a time-traveling benefit, how could he have the time and money to raise these things in his previous life.

We have touched all the protected animals, and it is just around the corner to touch giant pandas. If you try hard, you may even be able to raise one.

Just thinking about it makes me a little excited.

Giant pandas, how many people dream of raising one, even if they paid a lot of money to adopt one in the previous life, they still have to be put in the zoo, and they want to take it home, it’s a beautiful idea.

But after thinking about it, there is no scientific feeding method in this world, and there are no precision instruments. If you bring them back, if you can't raise them well, it's better to let them grow freely in the wild.

So I stopped thinking, why don't I raise some long-lived animals, such as the long-lived tortoise in front of me, which can be raised until I send myself away, and if I take good care of it, my grandson can catch up, saving me the experience of parting with my pet.

After feeding the vegetable leaves, Nan Ruo took the bean sprouts for a walk in the yard, made sure that it was healthy and alive, and sent it back to the special warm nest.

This tortoise is very smart and can recognize people. It was raised by Xiao Ruogu and Princess Changle together since childhood, and can distinguish their voices.

Princess Changle entrusts Xiao Ruogu to take care of her, not expecting him to feed and drink every day, there are a lot of palace people rushing to do these tasks, but to ask him to comfort the turtle.

After settling down the bean sprouts, Nan Ruo spread out the paper and began to preset the lines he would say when he met the hero and heroine.

He admitted he was a little nervous.

His impression of the hero and heroine can be summed up in eight words: Those who follow me prosper, those who oppose me perish.

Almost all those who stood against them did not end well.

The image of the empress in Xiao Ruogu's memory is even taller, comparable to an idol god.

He was afraid that he would be shot by the aura of the two of them to the unlucky gameover, so it was always right to rehearse in advance and make more preparations.

Finally, his major has come into play again, he can write N kinds of lines that are not repeated.

Two days passed in a flash, and it was the second day of May when the empress boat arrived at the wharf in the suburbs of Beijing, and then changed the carriage.

The prince led all the officials to greet him outside the city, and when he arrived at the place, he led the guards to go forward ten miles to welcome him again.

Nan Ruo mixed in the team, and only thought that he was participating in the welcome inspection of the leaders. If he held a small red flag or a small bouquet in his hand, it would be more like it.

Thinking about it this way, I felt a lot more peaceful.

It's just that the emperor in this world is not as kind and friendly to the people. He sat in the royal car and didn't get out of the car the whole time. The people who came to join in the fun didn't even see the back of their heads.

But this was enough for them to be excited for a long time.

Nan Ruo rode his horse forward, watching the crowd kneel down like a wave, the place where Yu Jia passed was silent, and everyone stared at Yu Jia with hot and reverent eyes, as if they were looking at a god.

His chest was pounding, and an indescribable feeling came up quietly.

He closed his eyes, covering up all the emotions he should have or shouldn't have.

All the officials were picked up at the gate of the palace and dispersed together, returning to their respective offices to continue working. Nan Ruo, as usual in previous years, first returned to the East Palace with the main force, and then waited for the little princess or queen to summon him.

Sure enough, after a short wait, a familiar palace official came to report that Princess Changle wanted to see him.

Nan Ruo asked Zhang Xian and Qian Chuan to find a few young eunuchs and carry them to the Jiaofang Palace with bean sprouts. Both the little princess and King Rong were still living in the Queen's Palace.

Strictly speaking, the Queen’s Jiaofang Hall does not belong to the harem. It is on the same central axis as the emperor’s Zichen Hall and the two front halls. Behind the Jiaofang Hall is an inner city wall, which is the palace group where the concubines live. .

Now the emperor only favors the empress, and the harem seems to be empty. There are only a dozen or so concubines who are unwilling to leave the palace and remarry to accompany them for the elderly.

The Jiaofang Hall has four front and rear entrances. Later, as King Rong and Princess Changle grew up, a three-entry courtyard was expanded on the left and right for King Rong and Princess Changle to live in.

Nan Ruo went directly from the right side courtyard, and first saw the boxes and cages spread all over the floor. Princess Changle was standing in the corridor of the middle hall, directing the palace staff to clean up and put them away.

"... Put this one in the house, I want to use it, move the other box aside first, I will use it as a gift later..." Seeing Nan Ruo, he immediately smiled and said cheerfully, "Brother Gu, come here Come! Come here, I have something good to show you!"

"Xinyue, Ruyue, quickly move out the things I prepared for Mr. Nangong."

Nan Ruo stepped forward with a smile: "Thank you, Princess, for thinking about me. Is the princess' journey going smoothly?"

Zhang Xian Qianchuan took the little eunuch, put the bean sprouts in the corner under the command of the palace man, and quickly left along the base of the wall.

After going out, the two looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.

The two of them used to be little eunuchs running errands in Zhan Shi's mansion, usually they only wandered around in the East Palace, where did they come to the Main Palace, it was the Queen's Jiaofang Palace, they were afraid of making mistakes, now they came out intact, finally they can let go of half of their worries.

They didn't completely let go until they returned to the garden smoothly.

After entering the yard and closing the door, Qian Chuan said with longing: "Brother Xian, you said that we beg the young master to have a good word with the princess and send us to the princess, will the young master agree?"

Zhang Xian had a sharp look.

Qian Chuan didn't see it, and continued to say: "Young Master must be going home, and then we have to go back to Zhan Shi's Mansion. I don't know when we will have a chance to come out next time. It would be great if we could go to Jiaofang Hall. Even if it’s just running errands—”

"Speak carefully!" Zhang Xian yelled and interrupted him, "If you don't want your life, then go! What is the end of betraying the master in the palace? Didn't your master tell you?!"

Qian Chuan didn't expect him to get angry, and said in a daze, "I'm just talking..."

Zhang Xian said sharply: "Speaking is not enough. As slaves, we should do more and talk less. Do whatever the master asks you to do. Don't ask too much and don't talk too much. Even if you don't speak to other palace people, you won't do it." Think about it, if I tell the prince what you just said, what will happen to you?!"

Qian Chuan's face turned pale in an instant, his two legs trembled, he grabbed Zhang Xian's sleeve and plopped down on his knees: "Brother, help me, I didn't mean it, I was obsessed with it..."

For some reason, he looked at the palace people coming and going in the Jiaofang Palace, and suddenly had a wrong idea. He just didn't want to go back to Zhan Shifu and continue to run errands for those old eunuchs. He also imagined that Grandpa Liu and Grandpa Zhou is equally majestic.

Zhang Xian looked at him disappointedly: "I usually see you are steady, but I didn't expect that I was wrong. I mentioned you in the past, so you can take care of yourself in the future."

"Don't, I know I was wrong!" Qian Chuan begged, "I will stop thinking about it, I know that my brother is doing it for my own good, and I will always listen to my brother from now on..."

Zhang Xian sighed and bent down to help him up: "Get up, don't blame me for admonishing you, our eunuchs have a difficult life, and if we don't pay attention, we will lose our lives. It is rare that we are selected together. It is fate. I think about the future Take care of each other, what you said just now, I was so scared that my heart almost jumped out, if there is someone else, both of us will be ruined."

Qian Chuan's face was full of shame, and tears were about to fall. Although he looked more stable than the young eunuchs of the same age, he was actually only 13 years old. He took his master there early, and no one gave him advice on weekdays. He was chosen to serve Mr. Nangong in the garden, and Zhang Xian took care of him a lot, but today he almost got into a catastrophe, and felt ashamed for a moment.

Zhang Xian looked calm, and wiped away his tears for him: "That's fine, it's good to know what's wrong, I'm afraid that if I talk too much, it will cause resentment instead."

Qian Chuan shook his head quickly, it was too late for him to thank him, so there was no complaint.

"It's fine if you don't complain." Zhang Xian smiled, "Don't worry, I see that the young master will stay in the palace for a while, even if he doesn't stay, he will come to the palace from time to time, let's serve the young master attentively, the young master Good hearted, will remember us."

"I always listen to my brother." Qian Chuan replied.

East Palace.

Liu Yuzhu, Liu Duan's apprentice, after listening to the eunuch's report, said with a smile: "This Zhang Xian is smart, he will come up with things, go and tell him that I will mention it to the master, and it will be fine as usual."

The confidant retreated in response.

Liu Yuzhu pondered this matter carefully in his heart again, and decided not to tell the master in a hurry. His Majesty returned to the palace today, and the master was busy with the prince. After two days, the master had time to tell him.

It's a pity that it's difficult for them to intervene in Jiaofang Palace, and it's impossible to know what Young Master Nangong did when he entered the palace.

He had to figure out a way.

He didn't believe that he couldn't take advantage of some loopholes.

If this job is done well, he will be the first among the master's apprentices, and maybe he will be accepted as a godson by the master.

·

Princess Changle gave an order, and the palace people quickly found out what she wanted.

A whole big box.

She picked them out one by one to show Nan Ruo, most of them were toys and various handmade gadgets, and there were also in the palace, but the things in the palace were always exquisite, especially for the master, even the toilet was carved and inlaid with gold, unlike These are bought from the folk at first glance, showing simplicity and strong local characteristics.

It is equivalent to buying souvenirs in scenic spots. The difference is that most of them were wholesaled in Yiwu in the previous life, and it is indeed produced by locals here.

Nan Ruoxin said.

With a gentle smile on his face, he listened carefully to the princess's stories one by one, and answered a few words from time to time. I don't know if it was an illusion, but Princess Changle seemed to be warmer to him.

Could it be because of his previous indifference?

Well, it's not a good idea to guess a girl like that.

Nan Ruo stopped thinking.

Princess Changle is only ten years old, and she is beautiful and cute. People always tend to favor beautiful things unconsciously, and subconsciously feel that she is not that kind of person.

But when Princess Changle took out a music box from the bottom of the box, Nan Ruo couldn't excuse her.

"This is the music box presented by Shisanxing. It was originally passed down from overseas Xiyi. Thirteenxing remade the style. I heard that in Xiyi, the music box is a gift for the sweetheart." Princess Changle picked up the music box Handed it to him, tilting his head innocently, "Although I don't have a sweetheart, but I thought of Brother Gu, so I chose one."

When she was a child, Princess Changle was called Brother Xiaoruogu, and as she grew up, she suddenly said that calling Brother Gu looked very different, and that she was called Brother Gu'er just like her father, queen and queen, so she changed her name to Brother Gu'er.

When she called Gu Geer, she smiled so sweetly that people couldn't help but want to laugh too.

Nan Ruo couldn't laugh, and her mood was a little delicate.

After meeting the real person, he found that the Princess Changle in Xiao Ruogu's memory was slightly different from what he had seen.

"Quickly open it and listen, there is a mystery inside!" Princess Changle urged.

Nan Ruo took it, and couldn't help but praise the exquisite shape of the music box. Although it is only the most common long box shape, it is surrounded by exquisite hollow carvings, and a butterfly love flower pattern is inlaid with shell gems on the front. Beautiful but not gorgeous, the whole is eye-catching.

If you look carefully at the carved pattern, it turns out to be sunflowers that came from Xiyi a few years ago.

"His Royal Highness said it was called a sound box, and said listen to it. I think the mystery is that it will make music when it is opened."

Princess Changle let out an ah, annoyed that she said something wrong, and pouted, innocent and cute.

Nan Ruo opened the music box, and the sound of ding ding dong dong sounded. The inside of the music box was simple, but the bottom was tightly covered and there were no carvings. Only a mirror was embedded in the opened side.

"Isn't it interesting?" Princess Changle came over and poked his face in the mirror.

"Yes." Nan Ruo lowered his eyelids.

He is now sure that Princess Changle is indeed showing favor to him, or trying to win over him.

And this kind of goodwill is full of strong purpose, not because my friend is angry and alienated, because I want to save him because of emotional sadness, but because I need this person.

Nan Ruo didn't know for a moment whether to be shocked that a ten-year-old girl had such thoughts, or to be sad for Xiao Ruogu.

He is sincere to the princess!

There is love for my sister, and there is also a glimmer of expectation to spend together in the future.

Even though he hated his father always urging him to get close to the princess, and envied his father for treating the princess and King Rong better than their own children, he never turned his dissatisfaction on Changle, not even King Rong.

He almost watched Princess Changle grow up, he accompanied her and protected her from the moment she stumbled and started to walk, and his affection for her was deeper than that of his own younger sister.

Nan Ruo's chest was suffocated, feeling righteous indignation spontaneously.

Whether it's the scumbag father or the gang of younger brothers and sisters, he can keep calm and even tease him jokingly, because Xiao Ruogu himself has no resentment.

Even though he was angry at his father for ignoring his mother and letting her die in depression, it didn't affect his filial piety to his scumbag father and caring for his siblings. This was the education he had received and the environment in which he grew up. Nan Ruo respected his ideas.

The original owner himself didn't complain and didn't want to take revenge. As an outsider, he had no reason to make a decision for him, whether to retaliate or not. It was not revenge for the original owner, but simply wanted to do it himself.

So Nan Ruo didn't have any deep hatred for the scumbag father, because Xiao Ruogu didn't have it himself, he was at most angry as a bystander.

In the final analysis, the scumbag father is just a stranger to him, which is not right. It should be said that he is like an annoying character in a TV series, which makes people want to beat him up to relieve his anger.

Well, there are still political enemies with different positions.

He will respect Xiao Ruogu's ideas, and will take care of his scumbag father in the future - regardless of the process, of course, if he dies unexpectedly early, he can't be blamed, and he will also take care of his younger siblings.

But Princess Changle is different.

Xiao Ruogu offered her all his sincerity.

Nothing to do with interests.

He didn't treat her well because of the title of son-in-law. He thought about the result of Changle growing up and having a sweetheart, so he willingly accepted it.

He wants to find an errand, half of the reason is that he wants to be worthy of her. He is not aware of Princess Changle's reluctance, so he wants to work hard, make some achievements, and change Princess Changle's view of him.

Nanruo can accept Princess Changle's reluctance, they are not in the right family, it is understandable, but she cannot accept that Xiao Ruogu is a vassal of Pan Heng's schemes for her.

Even if she arrogantly ordered him to be his subordinate as a servant, it would be better than the current situation.

But he couldn't do anything, not now.

Nan Ruo swallowed the depression, looked up, with a smile on his face, bent slightly, and said softly: "I like it very much, thank you Your Highness."

Princess Changle was stunned for a moment, then smiled, and muttered: "Just like it, I thought you were angry with me, and it took me a long time to write to me."

Nan Ruo: "Sorry, it's my fault. I was in a bad mood those few days."

"what happened?"

Nan Ruo looked down: "It's not because of the princess, but because of myself."

Princess Changle blinked: "Could it be that Fu Zhuo and the others bullied you again? I've heard from Taoyue that he injured you two days ago." She was indignant, "Don't worry, I'll teach him a lesson for you! "

Nan Ruo shook his head: "Princess, don't do it. He is the prince's cousin, and the princess is the prince's sister, so he is also the princess's cousin. Don't hurt me as an outsider and make people laugh."

Princess Changle wanted to say that he is not my cousin, and sighed why Nangong Ruogu was still so timid, and was bullied every time, she didn't want a son-in-law who would only be bullied, but the angry mother didn't think so, she just said what It's easy to handle, but she shouldn't be easy to handle, her future son-in-law has to convince her from the bottom of her heart.

But thinking of her mother, she could only be discouraged.

Xindao fools the queen mother first, and wait until she really has a favorite son-in-law.

"I'm not looking for Fu Zhuo, I'm looking for my father." She looked sly, "Cousin can't teach cousin, it's only natural for uncle to teach nephew."

Nan Ruo said, "The Holy Majesty is busy with court affairs, why bother him with such trivial matters."

After a pause, he frowned and whispered softly: "I am not as noble as Mr. Fu. He doesn't look down on me. I don't blame him. The world is like this, and he is not alone. The princess doesn't have to worry about me. Fortunately, there is a princess to take care of me." With my support, no one would come here to make trouble on purpose."

Princess Changle frowned, almost forgot that outsiders saw Nangong Ruogu as hers, if she really didn't care, outsiders would think she was easy to bully.

This doesn't work.

After thinking for a while, he said: "Since he is relying on his status, I will ask my father to give you an official position, which is higher than him, and let him salute you when he sees you in the future."

The more I thought about it, the better it was. I smiled and clapped my hands: "That's it!"

Nan Ruo was stunned, with hesitation on his face.

Princess Changle raised her chin: "If you say no, I will get angry."

Nan Ruo could only agree, but smiled bitterly: "Thank you, Princess, for your promotion."

Princess Changle has already changed the subject and talked about some interesting things she saw during the trip.

After talking for a while, a court lady wearing a flower crown and a blue robe came over: "The empress heard that the young master is coming, so she ordered the servants to come and ask the young master to go and talk."

"Lao Madam misses you." Nan Ruo got up and smiled at the maid again, "I haven't seen you for a long time, sister Jiang Ling is well."

Jiang Ling covered her lips and smiled: "Brother Gu is well too."

There are nearly a hundred palace people serving the Jiaofang Palace, but there are only ten big palace maids who are often used by the heroine, which are called four brocades and six silks.

The four brocades are the heroine's confidantes, they have all combed themselves and will never leave the palace to marry again, and the six brocades are changed from time to time.

The hostess set a point promotion system for her palace. Each position has a clear point value. All the maids and eunuchs who come in start from the lowest level of sweeping and running errands. Points will be deducted for small mistakes, and you will be sent away directly for big mistakes. If your score drops three times in a row, you will be sent away.

In addition to the corresponding salary, each position also has supporting benefits.

For food, clothing and housing, only the corresponding positions can use the corresponding regulations. For example, the corolla envied by the palace ladies can only be worn by four brocades and six silks.

This is the dress of a female official. According to the system, a fourth-rank Fengyi female official will be assigned to the queen. The Fengyi female official is responsible for serving and assisting the queen. When the queen loses her temper, she will remind the Circus in time. When the phoenix seat is vacant, she will temporarily take care of the pepper room Dian, wait for the next boss to take office.

But the heroine's female official Fengyi made a big mistake not long after the heroine took office. She became jealous of the queen and drugged King Rong, who was under one year old, and was executed by the enraged hero.

After this incident, the hostess refused to fill in another female official, and relied more on the maids around her. In order to give the maids a face, it was also a boost, and let them dress up as female officials. Although they did not have official positions, they had the same power as female officials.

Status in the palace is face. In order to keep face, the maids and eunuchs will try their best not to let themselves be compared.

Especially for court ladies, if they can be promoted to Liuling, the queen will personally protect the matchmaker when she is old, and she will also send a generous dowry.

Before that, the staff around the empresses and concubines did not change often, and it was difficult for other palace people to gain positions, and only the extremely favored palace ladies would get the master's sponsorship, most of the palace ladies could only go home and entrust their parents and family members.

With this system, the court ladies can make a future for themselves with their own efforts.

The ladies of the court sharpen their heads and want to enter the Jiaofang Palace, and the competition between Liu Ling is fierce, and each of them is a talent among talents.

So much so that being married to Liu Ling by the queen has become the honor of the honored noble family. Even for scholars from farming and studying, marrying a Liu Ling is more gratifying than marrying an ordinary lady.

Because of this, the Liulings abide by the rules more than anyone else, and keep an eye on the people below, never allowing their subordinates to implicate themselves with their private means.

Although this system cannot be said to be 100% perfect, it is already worthy of admiration.

Seeing the small from the small, just from this point, Nan Ruo knew that the heroine was no longer the little girl in the original text who held the maid's hand and said that she wanted to be a sister.

This is the main reason why he decided not to reveal his identity once he passed through.

Nan Ruo and Princess Changle went to the main hall together.

The moment he entered the door, he silently took a deep breath.

The historic meeting of two travelers in the same world should be a little nervous.

As soon as he entered the door and looked up, he saw the heroine sitting in the middle, the current empress Zheng Fan'er.

Needless to say about her appearance, there is nothing ugly about the heroine. Her first sister was the most famous beauty in the capital, and she is also a sister. decrease with age.

Empress Zheng just passed her thirtieth birthday last year, and she is well maintained. She looks only 25-[-]. If she reduces her attire, she may look younger again. It is no wonder that Fanwai and the heroine in micro-clothes are often loved at first sight.

Sitting upright in the upright position, she had an air of grace and wealth.

"Ma'am, Wanan." Nan Ruo saluted.

"Get up quickly, there is no need to be polite." Empress Zheng smiled, "I haven't seen you for a long time, Brother Gu seems to have calmed down a bit."

Before Nanruo had time to speak, Princess Changle had already run to Empress Zheng, took her arm and sat down filled with righteous indignation: "It's not Fu Zhuo, he bullied Brother Gu again, and Brother Gu was injured, Queen Mother, you and I Father said, let him give Gu Geer an official position, and tell Fu Zhuo to pay respects to Gu Geer when he sees Gu Geer in the future."

Empress Zheng laughed, and tapped her forehead: "Nonsense again, your official position is a toy you brought back, and you can share it with whoever you want."

Princess Changle really thought so, raised her chin: "Father is the emperor, he promises everything, and he made an order, who dare not listen?"

It's just an official position, she has said it out, if she can't do it, wouldn't it be too embarrassing, what do others think of her.

Quietly shaking Empress Zheng's arm coquettishly: "Mother..."

Empress Zheng was helpless: "Okay, okay, the queen mother knows."

Comforting her daughter, Chao Nanruo asked with concern: "How is the injury? Are you feeling better?"

Nan Ruo was ashamed: "It's not serious, it's just a skin trauma. It's really ashamed to make your mother worry about me."

Empress Zheng disagreed: "You have often come to Jiaofang Hall to accompany Changle since you were young. I have watched you grow up in the corridor day by day. In my heart, you are like a sweet lady, so how can you not worry."

Tianniang and Yazi are the nicknames of Princess Changle and King Rong.

It is a custom in Dayan that if a child dies prematurely, he will be called by a baby name for everyone around him, including servants, who will usually be called until the age of five. This means that the child will stand up, and only the parents will call from now on.

There is also Xiao Ruogu, called Zhinu, because the night before Zhao gave birth to him, he dreamed of a bush of gardenias blooming in the ice and snow.

Nan Ruoxin said that the heroine wore it early, she didn't know that Yazi was no longer the original Yazi.

"What's more, your mother entrusted you to me when she left..." Empress Zheng stared blankly, remembering the last time she saw Mrs. Zhao ten years ago. She was a smart woman. Help, because Mrs. Zhao liked it, her cake appeared on Gu Geer's full moon ceremony.

Later, she opened the store thanks to her help. At that time, she was so stupid that she didn't understand anything, she didn't know how difficult it was to open a store in the capital, and she just went on the rampage with a fearless drive.

Unfortunately, later...

She came back to her senses and said earnestly: "... I should be more worried. I know that you have been wronged in the East Palace. I used to think it was exercise. You are not like Yazi. He has an elder brother in front of him. Just have fun. , you are the leader, and if you want to inherit the family business and set up a family in the future, you have to stand up by yourself."

"I was negligent. I didn't expect Fu Zhuo to hurt someone. I've wronged you."

Nan Ruo was moved: "Your Majesty has taken all the troubles for me, so why should I feel wronged?"

Empress Zheng thought: "However, what Changle said is not unreasonable. I should arrange an errand for you. I wanted to wait for you to reach the crown before mentioning it to His Majesty. Since this is the case, it is better to go earlier. Do you have a place you want to go?" ?”

Nan Ruo looked like he couldn't believe it, and said in a daze, "Ah, it's fine..."

Princess Changle was amused by him, she giggled and said, "Look at Brother Gu, you're so silly!"

Nan Ruo shyly lowered his head.

Empress Zheng also laughed, and said to Liu Jin and Tong Jin who were standing beside her: "This kid has a thin face, look at him like this, we have to arrange something for him, it's impossible for a man to be too thin."

Liu Jin smiled: "I'm afraid it's only like this in front of the empress and the princess. This servant sees Brother Gu being generous to outsiders, so don't worry, empress."

Nan Ruo cast a grateful glance at her.

After everyone laughed, Empress Zheng said: "I have just returned to the palace in the past few days, and there are many things. After a few days, His Majesty is free, so I will mention it to him."

Nan Ruozi was extremely grateful.

Afterwards, they chattered and listened to Empress Zheng and Princess Changle talking about the parade. After a while, King Rong woke up from his afternoon nap and came over to join them.

Empress Zheng asked Nan Ruo to have dinner with her.

It's a pity that the male lead was busy summoning his courtiers and didn't come, so he couldn't satisfy his curiosity of watching the living emperor.

After the meal, Nan Ruo walked out of the Jiaofang Hall, and slowly exhaled towards the distant sunset. Life is really unpredictable. He is a screenwriter, and he works as an actor across industries, and the Oscars can give him an award.

While walking, I carefully recalled the two-hour conversation and made a summary review. The ancients always talked around the bush, especially in this palace, wishing that every word contained a deep meaning. Time is money for modern people. You insist on words, Nan Ruo is still adapting to study.

Think of it as doing Chinese reading comprehension, he thought.

As the old saying goes, live long and learn old, sincerity does not deceive me.

In this way, the reading comprehension of "one is a jujube tree and the other is also a jujube tree" has been done.

At this time, the evening drum had already sounded, and the palace gate was locked, so he couldn't go out of the palace again, so he could only go to see the scumbag tomorrow.

Zhang Xian and Qian Chuan helped him wash and settle down. When the two made the bed, Nan Ruo seemed to inadvertently ask, "Has the prince returned to the East Palace?"

Qian Chuan was taken aback and looked at Zhang Xian.

Zhang Xian's heart skipped a beat, and he said, "This servant dare not spy on the Prince's whereabouts."

Nan Ruo stared at the book in his hand, but didn't answer.

Zhang Xian felt uneasy and didn't dare to turn his head back. Did the young master notice something?

A few breaths passed, before the young master opened his mouth, the hands holding the quilt trembled slightly, cold sweat dripped from his forehead, trying desperately to recall what he had missed.

I don't know how long it took, maybe a few seconds, maybe a few minutes, he heard the sound of turning the pages of the book, and then the young master said: "I was fascinated by the book, what did you just say, oh, yes..."

Laughter: "There is something to do with spying on whereabouts. If the prince has returned to the East Palace, you can find a palace official outside and ask."

Zhang Xian relaxed all over, and hurriedly said: "It's the servant girl who made a mistake, my lord, please forgive me."

Taking the opportunity to look back, seeing that the young master's expression was normal, he suddenly seemed to come back to life, speeded up the work in his hands, and retreated out after finishing the salute.

Nan Ruo bowed his head and smiled.

It is understandable that people who have been in the hostile camp for more than ten years suddenly surrender, and everyone will suspect that it is Mission Impossible.

In ancient times, there was no means of monitoring recordings, so people could only rely on people to watch.

He didn't realize it at first, besides, Xia Houchun asked Cao Ban to help him choose him.

But who makes him like to observe, everything is new to him after time travel, and he is also deepening his understanding of the world through observation.

It just so happened that he discovered Zhang Xian's strangeness, he would disappear for a while every three days, although he always found an excuse every time, but he met Nan Ruo, a lazy egg, who likes to draw a stroke , accumulatively, you can see something is wrong.

After a few trials, his origin was confirmed.

This time it's really infernal.

Nan Ruo stroked her chin, and decided to show her loyalty in different ways every morning, noon and night before the leader found out.

A good night's sleep.

The next day it was bright and the morning bell had just rang, Nan Ruo hurried out of the palace and rushed back to Nangong Mansion.

There is no way, people in this world value filial piety, if he wants to participate in politics, he cannot be blamed in this regard.

It was already dawn when I returned home, so I went straight to the main courtyard to pay my respects to the scumbag father.

Nangong Yunlin was about to have breakfast, when he saw him coming, he clapped his hands and smiled: "As the saying goes, it's better to be late than to be late, so you should have dinner with me today, come and sit down."

Nan Ruo couldn't wait, finally there was a life guarantee in the family, and the second male also had a halo, so he followed suit.

Sit down and go through the process first: "Dad, is this trip going well?"

Nangong Yunlin threw the handkerchief after wiping his hands back into the basin, raised his hand, and the two servant girls who were accompanying him immediately stepped forward one by one from the left and one from the right to roll up his sleeves: "Your driver will open the way, the journey will be smooth, you Why was he punished by the crown prince for copying books, and what happened to Fu Zhuo, didn’t he tell you to avoid him and ignore him?”

Nan Ruozi told him the prepared excuse.

Nangong Yunlin frowned, and his peach blossom eyes showed a cold light: "I don't need to go to the palace for a few days, I'll stay at home to recuperate from my injuries, I'll talk to your Majesty."

"Yuanshan!" He said to the housekeeper Zhao Yuanshan, "The box I'm going to give to Zhinu, look for it quickly."

Zhao Yuanshan hurriedly responded, and came back in a while, holding the palm-sized box.

"give him."

If Nan was not surprised, Nangong Yunlin would bring gifts for the children every time he went out and came back, but usually they were distributed together, and today he happened to come early, so he brought them for him first.

"Open it and see." Nangong Yunlin seemed to be waiting for him to be pleasantly surprised.

Nan Ruo lifted the lid and suddenly realized that he wanted to use gifts to make his son happy?

Embarrassed immediately.

Then I opened it and saw a green and white jade cicada pendant, about the length of my index finger, finely carved, translucent and lustrous.

"I asked for this jade cicada at Puxing Temple when I climbed Mount Heshan. The abbot personally consecrated it. Cao Zijian's "Cicada Fu" said: "Jiaojiao Zhensu, Mo Yi Festival, this jade cicada is exactly as described."

"Put it on and let me see."

Nan Ruo picked it up and hung it on her waist according to her words, but she thought of another meaning of Yuchan——Hanchan.

When the ancients died, they would put the jade cicada into the mouth of the corpse.

"Historical Records" cloud: cicadas, sloughed out of filth, except for billions of floating dust, do not get the dirt of the world.

The ancients believed that cicadas are noble and pure, they can live in the soil and emerge from the soil without being polluted. They can ward off evil for the living and protect the corpses of the dead.

Han Chan implies that the spirit is immortal, reborn and resurrected.

Nan Ruo was in a delicate mood.

For this hidden coincidence.

If he didn't wear it, he would really have Han Chan, and if he did, he would also answer Han Chan.

"Not bad, not bad." Nangong Yunlin interrupted his thoughts, looked at the jade cicada on his waist, and praised, "The so-called wealth (cicada) is ten thousand, from now on, wealth and wealth will continue like cicadas."

Nan Ruo: "..."

As expected of the richest man, he never forgets his duty.

And urged him to follow suit.

Nan Ruo just said it again: "...Thank you for your auspicious words."

Nangong Yunlin added: "I only gave you one jade cicada, don't tell the second one."

Nan Ruo couldn't help but looked up at him.

He seemed to understand why Xiao Ruogu couldn't hate his scumbag father anymore. Such a clear emphasis and preference was a good medicine for Xiao Ruogu who had lost his mother.

——not counting the words of Princess Changle and King Rong.
