There was no movement above his head for a long time, An Wei Bing was so frightened that he lowered his head, not daring to say a word anymore.

"Go down." After a long time, Yuan Chen gently put down the folder in his hand, and said in a voice without any emotion.

As soon as the dark guard Bing retreated to the door, His Royal Highness's voice sounded again: "Go to the purple bamboo forest to pick some tender bamboo shoots, and then pass on to Mr. Zhu, and arrive at Jia's mansion a quarter of an hour earlier than usual."

The dark guard bowed his head, and within a quarter of an hour of leaving, the eunuch next to the emperor came and brought a very bad news.

The emperor is ill.

The dynasty ruled the country with filial piety, and as the crown prince, Yuan Chen needed to wear clothes, and the marquis served soup and medicine in front of the emperor's bed.

It wasn't until there was a pale moon and stars that Baoyu hurried back from the garden to eat in the main hall. As soon as he sat down, a servant came to report: "Mr. Zhu has arrived."

Baoyu put down his bowl and rushed out, followed by the maids and servants hurriedly wrapped up some snacks. When they arrived at the study, they saw Mr. Zhu standing beside the flowers with a basket in his hand, feeling somewhat dispirited.

"Please sir, why don't you see senior brother?" Baoyu stood still and bowed his hands in salute.

After glancing at the bushes, Mr. Zhu handed the basket to Baoyu: "The master is not too sure, it seems that the elders in the family have a disease. These are the purple bamboo shoots he asked someone to bring to you."

The two masters and apprentices walked into the study room, and they were a little bit uncomfortable. Although this senior brother was pitiful with few words, he just sat there for the past few days. He didn't look like a student, but rather like a second little master, Zhu The master never asked him questions, and he never answered them. The only thing he did was to observe the expression of the younger brother, to see what he didn't understand, and to explain it to him again in detail.

I don't know why, this senior brother has an ordinary appearance and is far less good-looking than Mr. Zhu, but every time he lectures, Baoyu always feels a little dazed. His confident demeanor, slightly frowned brows, and gentle tone always remind him of that People, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who sat on the bed and taught the little rabbit in the same way.

The one who can only appear in dreams.

Baoyu picked up a bamboo shoot tip from the basket and put it into his mouth, chewing it carefully, it was sweet and tender, just like the taste of the purple bamboo forest in Taihe Omiya when he was making rabbits.

He ate one after another unconsciously like this, and when the basket was about to bottom out, Mr. Zhu, who was also distracted, saw it.

"Shi Ying, be serious when listening to the book."

Baoyu held the last piece of purple asparagus in his hand, raised his misty eyes, and asked an irrelevant question: "Sir, where does senior brother live?"

Mr. Zhu was taken aback, hesitated for a moment, and then replied: "It's in the north of the city. Shi Ying, you have to be serious in your lectures, and it's not in vain for Master and Brother to cultivate you."

Baoyu didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he sat up straight and listened carefully to Mr. Zhu's lecture. But then, as the master, Mr. lost his mind uncontrollably several times, and the lecture was far less lively and interesting than before.

Inside the Qianyuan Hall, Yuan Chen was brewing medicine for the emperor himself in the small kitchen, when a dark shadow flashed outside the door, the dark guard Ding, who had received the task for the first time, stood behind him with his hands folded and said: "Your Highness, Mr. Zhu sent it back."

His Royal Highness nodded and looked up at him, as if he still had expectations.

The dark guard Ding is tall and burly, and belongs to the type whose cerebellum is more developed than the brain. Seeing His Royal Highness looking at him, he quickly knelt down and introduced himself: "Subordinate Ding Er, I wish to die for Your Highness."

Yuan Chen withdrew his gaze and concentrated on taking care of the medicine in the small red clay stove. After a long time, he waved to the careless secret guard: "Stay back. Let you all head over there."

After listening to the dark guard Ding conveying His Royal Highness's will, the dark guard fell into deep thought.

He has been the little prince's personal secret guard for four years, and he has never been warm or popular. The little prince was raised in front of the emperor, and besides studying, he learned strategy. He either stayed in the quiet Taihe Palace or stayed in the guarded palace He listened to the government in the main hall of the palace, and never even left the palace.This made them, hidden guards with special skills, no chance to make meritorious deeds.

But since the appearance of that little rabbit, the mature young prince seemed to suddenly glow with a little youthful madness. For the sake of his beloved little rabbit, he bloodbathed Yamato Castle Peak, and asked the good-looking Mr. Zhu to teach that fairy-like little prince. The secret guard was always watching the young master's every move, and caring about his little things in daily life was extraordinary...

He keenly sensed the thoughts of His Highness the Crown Prince, and when reporting, he regarded the Young Master as a considerate person of His Highness the Crown Prince. During the report, he detailed how many hours he had read, how many minutes he had slept, what kind of food he liked, who he liked , whom to hate, everything...

He guessed right, just a few days later, he was promoted and became the little leader of the dark guard group.

When Ding Eryi said it, he understood that it was because he had improperly employed people, and His Highness did not get the answer he wanted.

After this time, will the new little boss be kicked out?

At the entrance of the hall, seeing His Highness the Crown Prince still standing in the small kitchen, the dark guard fell to his knees: "Your Highness, this subordinate is not doing well, please punish me."

Yuan Chen turned around, raised his hand towards him, and looked at him with his eyes, neither angry nor angry.

"Your Highness, that young master ate all the basket of purple bamboo shoots raw when he was listening to the class yesterday. It seems that he was a little absent-minded while listening to the class." The dark guard glanced at His Highness's body leaning forward slightly, and knew that he was safe. , this action showed that he was eager to understand the situation of the young master, and did not intend to complain.

"Tonight, you take another basket and tell Mr. Zhu to pay attention to that young master's studies." Yuan Chen nodded, and walked out of the small kitchen with a soup can.

The dark guard armor rushes away, he has to choose people carefully, but don't let His Royal Highness think that he is just a good dark guard, but he is a fool when it comes to employing people.This is greatly detrimental to his official career.

The emperor was moaning and lying on the bed, Yuan Chen took the medicine and blew it cold before delivering it to his father's mouth, and thoughtfully ordered the maid to prepare the emperor's favorite pickled fruit to change the taste.

The other princes also came to pay their respects according to the order, but they just knelt and kowtowed, but they didn't dare to go forward to help feed the medicine.

Filial piety also depends on qualifications.

"Chen'er, Beifan's princess and princess will be here in a few days, what do you think?" The emperor glanced at the row of sons and asked Yuanchen after seeing the opportunity.

The relationship between the emperor and the prince is both intimate and delicate.They are their own flesh and blood, partners in state affairs, and cautiously guard against each other.

Like this kind of father and emperor who is old and weak, and the prince can do things when he is young, the emperor will think more about some things. If the consort princess, if he wants to point it out to those grown princes, he doesn't want the prince Get married early, because the prince's big wedding means that he is an adult, and it also means that he has the ability to aspire to the top of the world.

Although Yuan Chen was only sixteen, he had been brought up at the knees of the Supreme Emperor since he was 12 years old, and he learned more systematically about the emperor's mind than the emperor's. A small tablespoon of medicine was fed neatly into the emperor's mouth, and then he said with a smile: "Of course it is for the fourth brother. Look, the eldest brother, the second brother and the third brother have all embraced their little nephews. Only the fourth brother is pitiful, except for the two sides. Concubine, not even a concubine."

The emperor's heart relaxed, and just as he was about to speak, the eldest son, who was nearly forty years old, said indifferently: "If you want to say that I am pitiful, the younger brother is the most pitiful. The fourth brother has two concubines, and there is not even a woman in the younger brother's room." nothing."

The emperor cursed in his heart, "Stupid bastard."

"Brother was joking. My younger brother is still young. He has to learn from the emperor's grandfather and has no time to spend with women. Father, please point it out to fourth brother." Yuan Chen glanced at his elder brother's face that looked very much like his father, and laughed. Yan, with the innocent tone of a spoiled little brother.

"Okay, Chen'er, I'm in a bad situation. You and your mother should discuss about the princess's marriage. I'm tired too. You guys, step back." The emperor was afraid that those sons would say something inappropriate. He hurriedly ended the visit.

Until the emperor stopped the decoction, the princess's car also arrived.

Yuanchen was in the Qianyuan Hall, and the acting emperor received the princess of Beifan.

The princess wore a tall goose plume hat and a soft otter fur red dress. She was both wild and charming. With a pair of beautiful eyes, she unscrupulously looked at the powerful little prince of the Central Plains Dynasty.

"You are my husband?" Beifan people are bold, even women are no exception. After finishing the etiquette, the princess asked curiously.

"Princess misunderstood, I am still young, so I am not your husband. But please rest assured, the princess, you are going to marry the fourth prince of the current emperor, and you are also the official concubine of the palace." Wuchen smiled and said The fourth brother who stood aside gestured.

The fourth prince came out, facing the wind in Yushu, looking at the princess with a pair of affectionate eyes with a smile.

The princess didn't behave like a woman from the Central Plains, she just opened her mouth and smiled, she was quite satisfied with this husband, she put her hand on her chest to thank God.

A woman in yellow beside her pulled her clothes several times, but the princess was so immersed in the happiness of her husband that she didn't notice it at all.

Yuan Chen on the high seat noticed that since the envoy entered the palace, his gaze paid more attention to this woman than that princess.

"Princess, who is this next to you?" Seeing that the princess ignored her, Yuan Chen had no choice but to direct the topic to that woman.

The princess, who was meeting the fourth prince's eyes, came back to her senses, only to feel the cousin who was pulling her skirt desperately. She took a look at her and replied with a smile: "This is the Princess Tianlang of the King of Beiying. She and the welcoming envoy of your court General Sun Shaozu fell in love at first sight, and asked His Highness the Crown Prince to help the couple."

Yuan Chen glanced at the small leather whip in Princess Sirius' waist, and smiled happily: "Really? This is a wonderful marriage from heaven. This palace will immediately report to the Queen Mother and give them a marriage."

Sun Shaozu, who was standing behind the welcoming mission, was a little apprehensive about cooking his own raw rice. The enthusiasm of the grassland women matched his own taste.But the more he walked back, the more he felt uneasy. His Royal Highness asked about his marriage, and he had already reported the matter of the Jia family girl. If he proposed to marry the princess again, would it make His Highness feel too ambitious? ?

Sun Shaozu was overjoyed to hear the princess asking for marriage in person. His Royal Highness not only agreed to grant the marriage, but also warmly comforted the princess: "Don't worry, the princess, the princess's sister is my sister. You are married to the Sun family. As the mistress of the house, even General Sun must listen to you, if you disobey, I will support you."

When Sun Shaozu heard this, his heart was filled with joy. This princess married her, it is worth it, the sister of His Royal Highness, she is as honorable as the princess of the current dynasty, hahaha...
