My companion is a bit fierce

Chapter 8

The scene was momentarily tense and dignified.

Liu An couldn't pretend that he didn't exist anymore, he took the initiative to stand up and said to Rong Jue: "The entrance to the palace was decided early in the morning, and His Majesty has been waiting for His Royal Highness, and when His Highness enters the palace, these trivial matters Let someone take care of it, and when you come back from the palace, this palace will be cleaned up."

Along the way, Liu An could see very clearly that although Rong Jue was small, he was the center of everyone.He has an idea himself.As long as Rong Jue is convinced, it doesn't matter what other people do.

Makes sense, right now the cages are being unloaded from the carriage one by one, because there are so many that even the doors are blocked.

Rong Jue nodded and said: "In that case, let's go into the palace."

He lowered his eyes to see Bai Lu's private actions, Meng Wenbin was still in a daze, and he didn't know how to keep up with Rong Jue walking forward.

Bai Lu anxiously pulled Meng Wenbin, seeing that he was still looking at her suspiciously, she silently pointed at Rong Jue.

Rong Jue said, "Bai Lu stays here to clean up, and Wen Bin follows me into the palace."

The leading eunuch hesitated and said: "I'm afraid this is against the rules. Your Majesty only summoned His Royal Highness."

Rong Jue's footsteps paused: "Forget it, it's not in accordance with the rules to enter the palace without proper grooming, wait for me to tidy up before entering the palace to face the saint."

This is a change of mind. The eunuch who responded was dumbfounded. He didn't expect Rong Jue to be so fickle and backtracking. He immediately looked at Liu An and asked him for help.

Liu An secretly sighed, and said: "His Royal Highness has a high status, and I'm afraid that he will lose his status by going around..."

He couldn't guarantee that he would be able to persuade Rong Jue, but the fact that he changed his way to live in Xialing made him realize that Rong Jue did things with a strong purpose.It can only be done with reason, as for whether Rong Jue can understand his feelings, it can only depend on luck.

Liu An took a deep breath: "Your Highness came all the way from Mobei, and will live in Dingjing in the future. His Highness Wanwang can think twice before doing things."

"Oh?" Rong Jue narrowed his eyes, Liu An said it very clearly, Meng Wenbin has no way to enter the palace, and Rong Jue will live in Dingjing by himself in the future, I hope he can think more about things, and angered his colleagues Emperor Xi had no good fruit to eat.

Bai Lu thought for a while, it was really not good for Rong Jue to be so tough when he first came to Dingjing, Rong Jue represented the face of Rong Wangfu, but Rong Wang was only Rong Wang after all, no matter how big he was, he couldn't get around Emperor Tong Xi.

Bai Lu turned to Rong Jue and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness, General Meng will escort you to the palace gate and wait for you to come back."

"Alright."

Liu An breathed a sigh of relief, this was considered a concession.

Together with the chief eunuch, he led Rong Jue into the palace, and along the way, Liu An also hinted at Rong Jue a few words.

Anyway, Rong Jue saved his life in Juxia Ridge. As a rootless person, his greatest wish is to live safely to old age in this Jiuchong court.

Emperor Tongxi just heard that when Rong Jue entered the palace, he was examining the homework of several sons in the Imperial Study Room. Hearing the attendant's report, he laughed loudly and said, "It's just right, this Prince Rong will go to the Imperial College to study with you in the future. Why don't you go to the Imperial Academy first?" Meet and get acquainted."

Rong Wangshizi?

The next few princes focused their eyes, Rong Jue, as the only heir of the Rong Palace, was the help of each family fighting for it, even if he couldn't fall into his own family, he couldn't let him help each other.

After talking with Emperor Xi, he directly announced Rong Jue's audience regardless of the reaction of the people below.

As soon as Rong Jue entered, Emperor Tong Xi gave him a seat. He tilted his head and glanced at the three princes who were still standing, and sat down directly without being polite.

Emperor Tongxi asked with concern, and Rong Jue answered them one by one.

After asking about the family, Emperor Tong Xi said: "Speaking of which, Rong Jue has also reached the age of studying as a magistrate, and now he can't fall behind in his studies in Dingjing, so as not to wait until he returns to Mobei, Rong Qing will blame me for raising his son badly." gone."

He laughed a few times as he thought he was humorous, and realized that there was no one in the hall to cooperate with him, so he stopped quickly.

Rong Xu and Emperor Tong Xi were not familiar at all. After so many years, the first time Rong Jue heard Rong Xu talking about Emperor Tong Xi was the first imperial edict to summon Rong Jue to Beijing.

At that time, after receiving the imperial decree, Rong Xu summoned his staff to blatantly discuss how to prevent Rong Jue from going to Dingjing, and if not, how to delay Rong Jue's entry to Beijing to maximize his benefits.

They didn't avoid Rong Jue during their discussion, so they let him sit aside and listen.

When Rong Jue heard that he had to go to Dingjing, he got up and measured the territory map behind him with his hands.

Crossing the river from Linjiang Town to Dingjing took only a few months, or even less than a month if there was a favorable wind. The Daqi navy declined, but the shipbuilding technology did not stagnate. Instead, it continued to improve with the development of trade on both sides of the Lingjiang River.

Rong Xu noticed Rong Jue's movements, and drew a line on the map: "This is the shortest distance, I'm just afraid that you won't be able to take this road by then."

Xie Liu continued to wave his fan in this cold winter month: "Your Highness has to walk the Juxialing Mountain Road, and get rid of the barbarians by the way."

Xie Liu said: "My lord and I have made up our minds, we have to wait until the beginning of spring to leave. Now the weather is cold, the Huns are so hungry that they are ready to move, General Meng at Yunguan can't leave. Moreover, Juxialing is covered with ice and snow, we I'm not familiar with it, if I act rashly, I'm afraid it will arouse the suspicion of Emperor Tong Xi."

Rong Xu pondered for a moment: "I remember that Liren also has a son who has been practicing for several years. This time I will also bring him with me when I go to Juxialing. There are not many barbarians, so it's just a good time to practice."

Xie Liu echoed: "My lord is right, my son can also see the right time to make a move, and please spend more time consolidating your martial arts—don't harm my flowers and plants."

Rong Jue: "..."

Xie Liu: "Emperor Tongxi has three sons, the eldest prince Qi Lan was born in the middle palace. The queen was born in the prime minister's mansion. From the crown prince to the queen, all the way to prosperity and wealth, the scenery is infinite...but..."

Rong Jue glanced at the prince at the head. He was the tallest among the three princes, and he had already begun to look like a teenager. Feeling Rong Jue's gaze, he was still looking ahead.

Xie Liu: "Prime Minister Wang has power in the court. Although he supported Emperor Tongxi, he is also afraid of him. He has been lukewarm to the queen mother and child all these years. This can be seen from his delay in making a crown prince."

On the other hand, Qi Bo, who was next to Qi Lan, felt Rong Jue's gaze, and looked back unscrupulously.

Xie Liu: "Qi Bo, the second prince, born of Concubine Feng Gui, has a younger sister who is the only daughter of Emperor Tongxi. Feng Wei, the father of Concubine Feng, is the commander of the Southern Navy and Nanwei Army. The mother and son are deeply loved by Emperor Tongxi. His favorite is the most powerful opponent of Qi Lan's family."

Qi Bo gave Rong Jue a smile, Rong Jue was slightly taken aback, is this a gesture of goodwill?

Xie Liu: "In Daqi today, the navy is in decline, but Concubine Feng Gui is the most beloved concubine in the palace. It can be seen that Emperor Tongxi deliberately promoted them and pulled them out to confront Qi Lan's family and balance the court. .”

In this way, the last and thinnest one is the third prince, Qi Shen.

Regarding Qi Shen, Xie Liu thought about it for a long time before saying: "Qi Shen's biological mother is Angui, who came from a small family and has no background. There are not many children, so she was brought up. It is as if she does not exist in the palace."

Qi Shen knew that Rong Jue was sizing him up, but he sneaked a few glances at Rong Jue from the corner of his eye, seeing that Emperor Tong Xi seemed to be looking over, he immediately turned his head away and dared not look at him.

In this way, it is self-defeating and self-defeating.

At the end of the analysis, Xie Liu put away the paper fan and concluded: "In short, don't worry about Qi Shen. The most important thing is Qi Lan and Qi Bo. It's hard to say who will win in the end."

Rong Jue kept the characteristics of the three princes in mind, and now comparing them one by one, he only thinks that Xie Liu is really amazing, although he is not in Dingjing, he has analyzed the situation thoroughly.

Seeing the children looking at each other curiously, Emperor Tongxi asked, "Rong Jue will go to the Imperial Academy to study in the future, why not just live in the palace? Then I can go to and from school with my son."

Emperor Tong Xi said this because he considered that Rong Jue was not familiar with his place of life when he first came here. If his own children got to know him first, the children are very playful, get along day and night, read and play together, wouldn't they worry about not being able to develop feelings?

He never wanted to repeat his relationship with Rong Xu.

Furthermore, he can use this step to test Rong Jue.Rong Xu took good care of his only son. He heard that he was swaggering around in Yunzhou, but he didn't know what would happen when he arrived in Dingjing.

Rong Jue refused without even thinking about it: "There is Prince Rong's Mansion in Dingjing, I'll just live there."

"That's good. Prince Rong's Mansion is not far from the palace." Emperor Tong Xi wasn't angry either, he wasn't angry because of a child, he was still very angry, "It's almost noon now, Rong Jue should be hungry too Why don't you stay and have lunch with me?"

Rong Jue was treated like this when he first arrived, the three princes were slightly surprised, and then they were relieved.

But that's not true, before you even had your feet firmly on your feet, you were rushed into the palace by you.

Rong Jue pinched his stomach, thinking of Meng Wenbin who was still waiting at the palace gate, fearing that he had been waiting there, he still refused.

Being rejected one after another by a child, even Emperor Tong Xi, who boasted that he had a big stomach, didn't look very good-looking.

Although what he said was an inquiry sentence, he had already made this decision.As soon as the clever waiter heard the beginning, he went to prepare, but he didn't know what was good and what was wrong.

In fact, whether Rong Jue likes it or not, it is a grace to live in the palace, it is a grace to have meals with Emperor Tong Xi, and it is a grace to be able to study in the Imperial College. He only has a share of gratitude.

The atmosphere immediately cooled down.

Liu An followed Rong Jue into the palace, so he had no choice but to stand up to ease the atmosphere: "Your Majesty, calm down, His Royal Highness has been exhausted all the way, and was still shocked at Juxialing. At this moment, he probably wants to go back to rest early."

"Scared? What's going on?" Emperor Tong Xi was indeed distracted.

The importance of Rong Jue is self-evident, if one of his imperial decrees is lost, instead of offending Rong Xu, Emperor Tong Xi would rather Rong Jue stay in Mobei for the rest of his life.

Liu An briefly talked about the encounter with the barbarian Jin in Juxialing. He knew how to avoid the serious and ignore the light, and said: "Your Majesty has too much luggage and is seasick and afraid of the water, so we had no choice but to go to Juxialing. Fortunately, General Meng supported us all the way. Only then can we reach Dingjing safely."

He omitted Meng Liren and only mentioned a surname.

Emperor Tongxi frowned: "General Meng? People from Meng Li?"

"It's Meng Wenbin." Rong Jue said, and Meng Liren couldn't be involved at this time.

Liu An said: "General Meng is at the gate of the palace now, does His Majesty want to summon him?"
