"...If he sees something, he will definitely not say it."

"Your Highness, why bother with a little servant."

A triumphant smile flashed across Murong Xing's phoenix eyes, but his voice dropped again, like a big dog rejected by his master, revealing indescribable disappointment.

"Your highness just said about the two of us... Is your highness so unwilling to let others know about our matter?"

Seeing Murong Xing's brows furrowed tightly, Shao Guan couldn't help but feel his heart tighten when he saw Murong Xing's handsome face was extremely fragile under the paleness of his illness, he was afraid that Murong Xing would be hurt and he would suffer from angina again.

"How come...we will be together forever. Even if other people know, it's nothing. I'm just afraid...others will misunderstand that you are raised in my palace, face."

In Daliang, although it is not uncommon for the children of the nobles to break their sleeves in Longyang, and the folk style is also popular among the people, but this is after all something that is not on the table in the eyes of most people.

It's fine if it's an ordinary actor or actress. Murong Xinggui is the son of the Marquis Mansion, if it is rumored that he is the head of the family supported by him, even if Murong Xing doesn't care, he can't be completely ignorant.

Originally, he wanted to talk to make Murong Xing happy, but when the words really came out, they naturally brought all his sincerity.

Shao Guan pursed his lips, trying his best not to let Murong Xing see his depressed mood: "However, after I become the emperor in a legitimate way, at worst, I will modify the court law so that men and men can get married. Do you think it is good?"

In fact, they all knew that even if this matter was brought up at that time, it would attract opposition from all the officials in the court, and even leave a stain on the history books.

It's just to make each other happy.

"Okay, the minister will wait for ten miles of red makeup to marry His Highness."

Shao Guan was stunned for a moment, and while hiding the smile on his lips, he snorted softly: "Obviously you live in the palace, use the royal jade objects, and receive the imperial salary, what will you marry me with?"

"It's a slip of the tongue." Murong Xing held Shao Guan's hand, absorbing the warmth of the young man's body, and said with a smile, "It's the marriage with His Highness."

Shao Guan bent his lips in satisfaction, and was about to ask Murong Xing if he was feeling better when he was suddenly held by the waist and pressed down on the bed.

The handsome face approached in an instant, and the warm breath swept over his brows, tender and tender.

"Actually, His Highness knows best whether to marry His Highness..."

Unscrupulously pinching his waist lightly, Shao Guan barely suppressed the trembling of his body.

He turned his face to the side, without confidence: "You are still infected, don't make trouble..."

"Then His Highness said something nice to coax me..." Murong Xing grabbed the young man's hand and pressed it to his heart, "Otherwise, I might suffer again..."

Shao Guan swore that he indulged Murong Xing like this because he was poisoned by Gu.

"What do you want to hear?"

The faint smile in the deep phoenix eyes in front of him suddenly faded away, and for a moment he was so pious and solemn, unlike when he was with his lover, simply saying some romantic words, on the contrary, it seemed to block everything about him, including Life, no regrets.

"Whether it's in the previous life or in this life, I only like His Highness, and I only want to marry His Highness, I just want to be with His Highness, and guard His Highness through this life."

"I just want His Highness to promise me, no matter what... be safe and happy."

Shao closed his eyes, so that the moisture accumulated in the pupils would not condense into tears and fall.

"Okay... I want you to keep me safe and happy."

In the early morning of the second day, the servant outside reminded him three times, "His Royal Highness should get up and change clothes, and it's time to have dinner." Only then did he wake up Shao Guan who had barely slept all night.

The sleepy boy rubbed his eyes, but didn't get up, and curled up deeper into Murong Xing's arms.

Murong Xing gently stroked Shao Guan's black hair, and helped the servants outside to coax him softly.

"Okay, if your Highness doesn't wake up, it will be late for the morning court. His Majesty is sick, and it's not easy to preside over the morning court. As the heir, His Highness has to share the worries of the king's father..."

"...Your words are the same as what the slaves outside said." The young man with loose black hair was unmoved, and muttered, "I won't have breakfast for a while, and I will go directly to court, there is still time."

"That can't be done... Your Highness, do you want to suffer from gastrointestinal diseases at a young age?" Murong Xing reluctantly curled his lips, lifted the quilt, and then reached out to pull the young man who was sticking to his arms like a plaster, and hugged him. stood up.

"I'm going to fetch clothes for Your Highness, Your Highness will wake up by himself, and when the morning court is over, I will have lunch with you when His Highness comes back, okay?"

Shao Guan reluctantly said: "...um."

Murong Xing patiently helped Shaoguan tidy up the cumbersome court clothes, and gently wiped the face of the young man with his eyes closed with a handkerchief.

He simply changed his clothes, and after washing, he lowered his head and kissed the young man's lips.

"Your Highness, let's go to court. It just so happens that I am here to help His Highness approve some backlogs of official documents."

"The seal of the Eastern Palace is in the study, you ask someone to take it for you..." Shao Guan looked at the sedan chair waiting outside the hall, and finally ordered, "If you are tired, take a rest, and don't forget to drink your medicine."

"understood."

my lord.

The morning court usually opens at Chen and ends at noon.However, it was not until the afternoon near Shenshi that there was a familiar sound of horseshoes outside the East Palace.

"But what happened in the hall?"

When Murong Xing saw Shao Guan walking towards him with tired eyes, his phoenix eyes shivered slightly.

Shao Guan ordered the servants to close the palace door, and replied softly: "Nothing happened, it's just that the Double Ninth Festival is approaching, Father hopes that the palace can take advantage of this festival to hold a big banquet to add some joy."

"After the court, the ministers of the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Officials asked to see Gu, and Gu had a discussion with them, so he came back late—have you taken any medicine?"

"Not yet." Seeing that Shao Guan looked a little displeased, Murong Xing added in a low voice, "Didn't it be agreed that I will have lunch with His Highness when His Highness comes back?"

"...You still talk about me in the morning. You don't know how to eat on time. I haven't come back at noon. It's better for you to eat some padding first—come, let's have lunch."

Seeing the helpless and worried expression on Shao Guan's face, Murong Xing couldn't help coaxing with a smile.

"Your Highness looked at me, as if I had eaten a meal late, and the poison in my body was about to explode... In the past, it was common for me to be hungry and full in the army, but now I only have so little time, and I can go out again." What's up?"

A group of servants quickly entered the hall with dishes, and arranged more than ten dishes on the table.

As soon as the servants in the hall left, His Highness the Crown Prince who was sitting on the seat abolished all the etiquette on the table, and stood up to serve Murong Xing.

Murong Xing's phoenix eyes were smiling, but he didn't stop him, and ate all the food that Shao Guan put into his bowl mouthful.

"Your Highness, take it easy... Your Majesty hasn't finished eating yet."

"Which dish do you taste delicious? I'll get you some more."

Murong Xing casually reported the names of all the dishes that Shao Guan didn't like much: "Your Highness, I'm just poisoned, not handicapped. You can still pick up the dishes yourself. Your Highness, eat some yourself."

Shao Guan moved the dishes in front of him, and snorted softly: "It's just that the imperial doctor said that you should not be affected and your mood swings should not be too big, so I..."

"Yes, His Highness helped me with cloth dishes, certainly not because he loves me."

The boy with puffy cheeks who had just stuffed a mouthful of rice was stunned for a moment, then suddenly raised his eyes to stare at Murong Xing, like a milky beast with teeth and claws: "You can't stop your mouth if you eat it!"

"I specially asked the Imperial Dining Room to cook His Highness's favorite dishes. If His Highness doesn't move the chopsticks, the dishes will be cold."

Murong Xing brought a piece of shrimp meat to Shao Guan's mouth, and the young man who had just swallowed half a mouthful of rice held his face and bit the shrimp in a gentle manner, his black eyes already filled with a satisfied smile.

"I have finished reviewing the memorials that the servants moved to the study for His Highness."

"Since Your Highness has been ordered to prepare for the Double Ninth Festival, if you have nothing else to do in the afternoon, you can go out of the palace in casual clothes and go to the folks to buy some novelties, which may make His Majesty and the Empress a smile."

"Well, then I'll let someone arrange carriages and horses, will you go with me?"

"I'm sick, so I won't go out with His Highness. Your Highness has something you like, just buy it." Murong Xing's eyes moved slightly, and he slowly shook his head.

There was a trace of disappointment on Shao Guan's face, but he quickly covered it up, smiled and said "yes", and called the servant to inquire, only to learn that there will be a light show at the market tonight.

Now shops everywhere have put on exhibits one after another, and many merchants have brought in novelty items from all over the world, planning to sell them during the Double Ninth Festival.

"I don't know when His Highness is going to return from the palace. Should the dinner be prepared in the imperial dining room? Why don't you arrange some guards to protect His Highness..."

Shao Guan couldn't help laughing: "Going out of the palace in casual clothes, bringing guards is not a way to reveal your identity, but it's inconvenient. What's more, there are hidden guards following in secret, ordinary assassins and killers can't hurt Gu - let's prepare dinner first, before sunset , I will return to the palace alone."

After finishing his lunch, Murong Xing was wiping his hands with a handkerchief, when he heard Shao Guan's order to the servant not far away, his face was thoughtful, his phoenix eyes narrowed slightly.

"It's getting late now, Your Highness should leave earlier."

The shadow of the Lingnan Army's rebellion on Chang'an Avenue has disappeared without a trace. Bustling crowds, hawkers, and playful children are all crowded on the Qingshiban Road, and the street is full of the fragrance of chrysanthemum wine.

Shao Guan wore a simple and elegant robe of crow blue, with a jade pendant on his waist, and his forehead inlaid with white jade set off the youth's pair of radiant peach blossom eyes.

Even with a young servant by his side, the boy's innate aura is enough to make people dare not underestimate him.

When the peddler who opened the pastry shop saw Shao Guan approaching, he smiled and greeted warmly: "My lord, the Double Ninth Cake made at home is made of the freshest glutinous rice and red beans, take some home for your wife and children to try. "
