Lu Yiping and Jiang Mingsheng, who were tired of staying at home for the past two days, didn't know about the fact that the emperor posted the imperial list to find people.

When the neighbors on Xiluo Street who formed a team to receive the reward arrived at their door with the court officers and soldiers, the two were completely dumbfounded.

"The next official pays homage to His Highness, please return to the palace, the emperor and queen are waiting for His Highness."

The one who came to pick him up was Qi Wenqing, who had redeemed Jiang Mingsheng and escorted him back then. At this moment, Qi Wenqing was wearing a second-rank official mansion, and led a team of officers and soldiers standing at the gate of the small courtyard, respectfully looking at Jiang Mingsheng's luggage.

As for the neighbors in the Luo Street team to receive the reward, they stared at Jiang Mingsheng excitedly and curiously.

Looking at the appearance of this official, this little brother Jiang is really the prince he was looking for in the imperial list, ouch, they actually became neighbors with the prince...

"You... Young Master Qi, did you make a mistake..." Jiang Mingsheng's face was dull.

"Your Highness's identity is absolutely true, and this official has already confirmed it. Please rest assured, Your Highness, and follow this official back to the palace." After speaking, Qi Wenqing saluted, and stepped forward behind him.

"Your Highness, please return to the palace..."

"..." Jiang Mingsheng opened his mouth, still in disbelief, took a step back, stood next to Lu Yiping, pulled his sleeves, and whispered, "Sir, what should I do?"

"........."

Lu Yiping didn't speak, and pulled Jiang Mingsheng behind him, feeling a little worried. He didn't know if Jiang Mingsheng's status as a prince was real, but judging by the appearance of these officers and soldiers, no matter whether they agreed or not, it was obvious that he would take him away of.

According to the ancient rules, if Jiang Mingsheng went to the palace, it would be difficult to figure it out. It is impossible for him, a commoner, to enter the palace. It will be as difficult as going to heaven to meet in the future...

Naturally, Qi Wenqing saw the intimacy between the two, his eyes moved, thinking of the emperor's temper, he looked at the people behind him, and hurried forward

"Thanks to the strong man for protecting His Highness these days. After returning to the palace, I will definitely inform the emperor about this and reward the strong man... Now, please follow my highness back to the palace. The emperor and queen are still waiting for you."

The last sentence was addressed to Jiang Mingsheng. While speaking, he signaled the officers and soldiers behind him to come forward and ask Jiang Mingsheng to step up and drive him back to the palace.

In a few words, the relationship between Lu Yiping and Jiang Mingsheng was put aside, and the people on Xiluo Street, who knew the intimate relationship between the two, suddenly realized that the two were not husband and wife, and Lu Yiping was just a strong man protecting the prince.

Everything before was covered up by the two acting in a play. No wonder the man from the Lu family took good care of his little brother. It turned out to be like this...

Looking around at the expressions of the people around him, Qi Wenqing nodded with satisfaction in his heart. As the prince, Jiang Mingsheng's reputation is of great importance. No matter what his status as a living among the people or what he has experienced before, the emperor will deal with it himself.

What he has to do is to protect the reputation of the prince, and bring him back to the palace in a good manner, without any rumors...

Seeing that Jiang Mingsheng still didn't move, Qi Wenqing stepped forward, cupped his hands again and said, "Your Highness, the Emperor is still waiting for you, let's go back to the palace with the officials."

"I..." Jiang Mingsheng still didn't move, feeling timid in his heart, he was a little nervous to grab Lu Yiping's hand.

Following Jiang Mingsheng's actions, Qi Wenqing looked at Lu Yiping with a cold gaze, already a little warning...

Lu Yiping's heart sank. Since ancient times, people have not fought against officials. As an ordinary person, he has no way to fight against the government.

"Go..." nodded to Jiang Mingsheng, paused, and said, "I'll wait for you here..."

"..." Jiang Mingsheng bit his lip and said nothing, staring at Lu Yiping, obviously unwilling to leave.

The atmosphere was stalemate for a while, Qi Wenqing could threaten Lu Yiping, but he couldn't threaten Jiang Mingsheng, who knows if he would be jealous if he offended the prince.

But if Jiang Mingsheng is not brought back to the palace, he will not be able to return to his life. Looking at Jiang Mingsheng's expression, Qi Wenqing said again:

"Your Highness, please go back to the palace with me. If Your Highness wants to thank this strong man for his help, you can report it to the Emperor as a reward when you go back to the palace..."

He could see that the reason for the prince's reluctance to return to the palace was all on the tall man next to him, his ambiguous demeanor was undisguised.

"..." Still didn't speak, Jiang Mingsheng stared at Lu Yiping, his eyes were already a little red, and he refused to move his feet, and he held on to Lu Yiping's sleeve and refused to let go.

Sighing, Lu Yiping nodded to Jiang Mingsheng, leaned into his ear and whispered, "Go, I'll wait for you here, if you don't come back, I'll go find you, trust me!"

Jiang Mingsheng was reluctant to leave, so how could he be willing to let people go, but now, with so many officers and soldiers present, blatantly, they have no choice...

After a while, Jiang Mingsheng finally let go with red eyes.

"You...must come."

Slowly let go of his hand, his voice choked with sobs, and Jiang Mingsheng sat on the stepper at Qi Wenqing's respectful request.

The mighty procession moved forward, and Xiluo Lane was full of people watching the excitement. Jiang Mingsheng sat on the stepper, and turned his head to stare at Lu Yiping who was standing alone outside the courtyard.

It wasn't until he saw the figure again that he lowered his head in silence, and was taken back to the palace by Qi Wenqing in a state of anxiety...

As soon as the officers and soldiers took the prince away, the onlookers in Xiluo Lane began to discuss and disperse one after another. The neighbors who formed a team to receive the reward were not afraid of the government's repudiation, and ran home excitedly to wait for the reward to be delivered.

As for Grandma Chen, who rented the yard to Lu Yiping, she was not in a hurry to go home. She stood next to Lu Yiping with a face full of excitement.

Turning around and seeing the expressionless Lu Yiping, he immediately slapped his thigh to congratulate

"Hey, Mr. Lu, oh no, Mr. Lu, you are about to become prosperous, and your contribution to protecting the prince is not small. The emperor must reward you as a high-ranking official..."

"..." Lu Yiping didn't say a word, staring at Grandma Chen with a cold look, he turned around and went back to the room.

He closed the courtyard door with a bang, full of anger, these people are meddling in their own business, Ming Sheng is his wife, daughter-in-law!It's not a prince......

On the other side, the emperor and empress who had received the news were sitting anxiously in the side hall and waiting. The flesh and blood they had separated for more than ten years was finally coming back.

"Your Majesty, how long will it take? It's been almost an hour, why hasn't my son come back..." The queen was stirring the handkerchief, her face full of impatience.

"Hurry up, it will take an hour to leave the palace and enter the palace, and the emperor has to change clothes and take a bath, so be patient."

"Wait, wait, how long have you kept me waiting, woo woo woo, if it weren't for you, why would my emperor have been separated from me for more than ten years, woo woo..." The queen began to turn over old scores again.

"Yes, yes, it's all my fault..." the emperor was very helpless, "It was because I was infatuated with you back then and you ran away, and I admitted that I was wrong. Queen, please forgive me."

"It's useless to admit you're wrong..." The empress stiffened her mouth and stopped talking angrily, looking anxiously outside the palace and continuing to wait.

The emperor was dumbfounded, looked around with no expression on his face, but the palace maid and eunuch, who was holding back a smile in his heart, took a sip of tea to cover up his unease.

I murmured in my heart, the queen is really, she doesn't give face at all, he is the emperor of the ninety-five ranks...

Two hours later.

Just when the emperor and empress got impatient and began to complain about the inefficiency of their subordinates, Jiang Mingsheng was welcomed back to the palace by Qi Wenqing, and after bathing and changing, Jiang Mingsheng was finally brought over by the eunuch and maid.

The moment Jiang Mingsheng stepped into the side hall nervously, the emperor and empress breathed a sigh of relief, and the empress even broke down emotionally.

This is her flesh and blood, the real flesh and blood, the portrait is not real, but seeing the real person at this moment, there is no doubt.

Although the facial features are not as outstanding as the emperor's and empress's, those eyes are very resembling that of an empress, and that unique penis is exactly the same as that of the empress back then!
