I am His Majesty's favorite

With a few words and a few words, the military general who rushed into the palace was dismissed, and the heart of the monarch was finally relaxed.

He patted on the arched quilt ball, but unexpectedly got no response.

His Highness the Crown Prince's entire face was covered under the quilt, and his expression could not be seen clearly, but his silent behavior undoubtedly meant that he was not very happy.

Lin Heng pursed his lips, knowing that Ji Huaichen's sudden visit made him unhappy.

Also.

Although Ai Jiang will definitely keep his mouth shut as if he didn't see it, but at least he was captured alive on the couch, and the two hugged each other tightly without leaving any gaps.

Such a private and ambiguous scene makes people look at it, and it is really hard not to care about it.

After being interrupted, Lin Heng noticed that the heat on his body was showing signs of subsiding, so he calmed down and took the initiative to show softness: "I won't do it next time, forgive me, okay?"

Mu Chi seemed to want to distance himself from him, and shrank lightly into the bed.

The movements were full of refusal, but in the end he was willing to speak out.

"It's almost morning time, so don't leave yet."

Lin Heng didn't answer, just stared at the person with his eyes.

He wasn't afraid of his little ancestor making trouble, on the contrary, it was enough to say that the matter was serious because he didn't make trouble like this.

"His Majesty."

Eunuch Jiang Lai called softly outside the door, bowing his waist and hesitating whether to go in to check the situation.

"There are courtiers waiting outside the gate of the Erzhong Palace, and the old slave has prepared the washing things, can I present them immediately?"

"No need." Lin Heng's voice was cold, but the expression on his face was sporadic and gentle.

"Don't be annoyed, you are still sick, what should you do if you lose your body due to anger."

"What's there to worry about? You are the emperor and he is a courtier. If there is something urgent to report, you should come to see him immediately." Mu Zhen shrugged indifferently, turned his direction and leaned firmly on the soft pillow.

"Let's go, I want to make up for the return sleep."

His Majesty the Emperor sighed secretly, as if he wanted to rub his head.But after raising his hand for a while, he couldn't find a suitable position, so he put it down angrily and said, "Then you wait for me."

After finishing speaking, Lin Heng pulled a big cloak on indiscriminately, and walked straight to the door.

When he entered the room again, what he saw was that the pillows he had slept on were thrown far away, and there were faint marks of hammering on them.

And the sash of the court dress was wound with dozens of knots like a straw rope, and it was randomly entangled with other accessories and fell to the corner of the wall.

His Royal Highness sat cross-legged and stared at the door, looking at each other, and blurted out, "Didn't you leave?"

I thought I'd have to wait at least until Xiu Dynasty to come back.

"No." Lin Heng shook his head, and handed a whole plate of Poria cakes to him. "I'm going to take snacks. By the way, I will inform the palace people to pass the news, and I will stop the court today."

"Let's go to court again?"

After Mu Zhen finished speaking, he suddenly realized that the biggest stumbling block on the road of diligent administration was still carrying the pot, so what the hell was he secretly happy about.

Ignoring the food handed to him, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was caught alive, got into the quilt to put an ostrich in it, but saw Lin Heng's cloak faded, and then lay back on the couch again.

"What are you doing!"

"Replenish the cage sleep." The monarch smiled foolishly. "I'll accompany you."

"Let's go! Who wants you to accompany me!"

In any case, there were no outsiders present, so he simply stopped putting on a nonchalant attitude.

"Don't discuss important matters, what are you doing with me!"

Lin Heng couldn't help being amused, he thought that Ji Huaichen was afraid that his little uncle would suffer outside, so he wanted to ask the decree to accompany him.

But there are some things that are easier to handle with fewer people. The appearance of the Grand Bachelor and the Central General at the same time is too eye-catching.

Furthermore, Lianxi Zhuo used to treat himself kindly, as he often said that he would not accept military orders abroad, and he did many things in disregard of orders.

It's just a mere dispatch, it's not a big deal.

Probably because he came in from the outside, his fingertips were a little cold, and Mu Xun's body trembled through the brocade silk inner garment.

"It's freezing, take it away!"

The emperor who was obedient withdrew his hand, and said with some resentment: "Give me some too."

Such a pitiful appearance begging for a quilt, how can there be half of the cruelty in the rumors.

Since the two exchanged their hearts that time, Lin Heng seemed to have released the little beast in his heart, sweeping away the alienation when he first came to Nanchan, and became even clingier than three years ago.

There is a saying that abnormality is a demon.

Mu Yan turned his eyes to look at him for a long while, then politely refused: "Get lost."

This is His Royal Highness's usual way of venting his anger, the monarch nodded helplessly, curled up and rubbed against the side of the bed.

"Hiss..." The wound on his abdomen was pulled violently, Lin Heng frowned and whispered. "It hurts."

Mu Yan was going to see what other tricks he had, so he was silent for a moment, and smelled a faint smell of blood in a trance.

The black and yellow court clothes had a few mottled spots, and the reddish-brown piece was dazzlingly bright, which really tore the scabs again.

"Are you stupid!"

His Royal Highness was startled, and just about to cover it with his hands, but after thinking about it, it seemed useless.

Searching around for a while, he finally grabbed the silk handkerchief hanging on the bedside shelf and covered him where the blood was oozing.

Lin Heng raised his back and looked at him busy chattering, and instead of restraining himself from being stared at, his smile became more and more intense.

"Only your token can enter and leave the Changming Palace at will, they can't."

They, of course, were referring to Ji Huaichen and Lian Xizhuo, who were blamed for being 'unscrupulous'.

The words for no reason caused Mu Chen to pause, and then half of the smoldering fire in his heart dissipated suddenly and hopelessly.

Talking about important matters is just an excuse, and the main reason is actually trespassing.

It turned out that he knew all about it.

"Then you don't have to use bitter tricks to coax me, it's even more annoying."

Lin Heng smiled: "How dare I, I was in a hurry when I was taking the tuckahoe cake, and accidentally bumped into the door frame of the small kitchen."

whispering sound.

Just a fool.

Mu Chen groaned sullenly, not caring about the loose hair, let it hang messily on the side of the neck, tilted his head and carefully wiped the blood on him with a silk handkerchief.

His annoyance was not entirely unreasonable.

Ji Huaichen is the general of the central government with a heavy army in his hands. He has a high position and authority, and he has a soldier talisman in his hand. How can we not make people more wary.

Even if Lian Xizhuo is a civil servant, there is nothing to worry about, but the relationship between him and General Ji is very close.

In Huaibei, Mu Zhen was used to seeing officials colluding in an attempt to rebel. Those dirty and disgusting schemes will only show their true colors after being exposed.

Yesterday was a strong friendship that surpassed that of monarchs and ministers, but today you can point your sword at the gate of the city and punish the superior.

The supreme power can save the people from the sea of ​​suffering, and also destroy the aspirations of loyal ministers and good generals.

Emperors are suspicious, and they have been like this since ancient times.

Of course Lin Heng could see what he was thinking, smiled slightly, and very gently tied up his ink-like hair.

"The Ji family has taken on the important task of protecting the lord and the country since the establishment of the Southern Dynasty. There have been five generals, seven military commanders, and thirteen city defense chiefs."

"Huaichen was taught by the old general himself when he was young, and his literary talent and martial arts are really top-notch among his peers. Now there are 50 troops in Nanchong, and he has 20 in his hand. He is mainly stationed on the border."

"As for the Lian family, the entire family declined after the death of Queen Huixian. Except for Lian Xizhuo who still has the status of a prince, the rest of the children are like ordinary rich and noble sons, rich but without real power."

"Although he is a member of the royal family, he is well versed in how to lead soldiers. But he has a pure heart, and he extremely hates being in power. The position of a bachelor is a false title, and the greater use is in his independent intelligence organization, which only works for me. .”

His Majesty the Emperor talked eloquently, leaving aside the little uncle and the beloved general, and named many characters that Mu Chen had never heard of.

Those officials who are either civil or military or even not serving in the court, roughly count as about twenty or thirty.

Everyone's family history, temperament and hobbies, including strengths and weaknesses, Lin Heng can remember very clearly.

After talking for a long time, Mu Chen rubbed the crumpled silk handkerchief and fell into deep thought.

He didn't plan to find out the inside story at all, but the emperor was so eloquent that he even revealed his old background.

This is really......

"Why are you stunned?" His Excellency the Monarch waved his hand in front of his eyes, and said, "Is there any doubt?"

"Have."

His Royal Highness returned to his senses, with an unprecedented seriousness on his face.

"Lin Heng, why did you ask me to come to Nanchong?"
