Chapter 123 I'm In Love 3
"Second Brother——" King Xing's expression was exaggerated, and he stretched out his hand to grab the void!

"Nine Emperor Brothers—" Qi Ming ran towards his younger brother with tears in his eyes!
King Xing: "Second Brother, Xiao Wang doesn't want to go back to the palace! I just want to follow your lead and be your little follower—"

Qi Ming: "Oh! My dear Brother Nine Emperors~ You are my most loyal little tail!"

King Xing: "Second Brother, let's sing vigorously about wine, and be a companion in the world of mortals—"

Qi Ming: "This king is reluctant to be separated from you, I don't want to be separated from you—"

"Ninth Brother~" The little princess tilted her head and said innocently, "What are you doing?"

King Xing was invited to Xing'e Palace. Inside the courtyard gate, he was playing with the little princess. After being called by his sister, he finally came to his senses. It turned out that everything just now was just a theater in his head.
"Ah" King Xing lost his temper in an instant, with two lines of tears streaming down his face, he said sadly, "It's okay for the prince brother. Why didn't you save me, second emperor brother?!!!" His complaints shook the entire palace, startled a bunch of birds flying away
"Ninth Brother, when will the Prince's brother come back?" the little princess tugged at the corner of King Xing's clothes and asked.

King Xing said dejectedly, "Xiao Wang doesn't know either. By the way, little Ling'er, when I slipped out of the palace, did you come to look for me?"

The little princess nodded and said: "Mmm ~ Ninth Brother, Ling'er saved a beautiful bird! It was injured. You are not here, and Sister Orange healed it!"

King Xing understood for a while and said, "Did you originally want me to save it?"

"Yeah!" The little princess nodded and said, "Ninth Brother likes birds, and so does Linger~"

King Xing smiled and said, "Go, take Xiao Wang to have a look!"

"Ok!"

In the Palace of Joy, Concubine Qi is maintaining her slender fingernails, and her every movement is full of charm and charm.

Nurse Leng leaned in and signaled all the court ladies to retreat, then said to Concubine Qi: "Master, the parrot has already taken up residence in Xing'e Palace."

Concubine Qi's eyes shifted, but she only stared at her beautiful nails and said, "Hmph, fortunately, I cleaned it and put it in Xing'e Palace! It's best to let that Concubine Wu have a hard time saying it!"

There was a hint of cruelty in Leng's eyes, "Master, why doesn't the parrot bring poison into Xing'e Palace?"

Concubine Qi showed a rich smile and said: "Hmph, I understand His Majesty's temper. When something like this happens, he will block the news and investigate secretly. If the little princess is poisoned, he will also clear the suspicion for Concubine Wu." excuse!"

Mother Leng curled her slender lips and said, "Your Majesty is still smart!"

In the Xing'e Palace, the brother and sister came down to the inner courtyard with the escort of the palace people, crossed the small bridge and flowing water, and entered the pavilions. They saw a blue and yellow parrot perched on the stand. There are bandages on the wings.

"I'm not a stupid bird! I'm not a stupid bird!"

"This parrot is really interesting!" King Xing teased with a piece of grass, "Who said you are a stupid bird? Huh? The more stupid you are!"

"Stupid bird! Stupid bird!"

"Hey!" Xing Wang became more and more interested, "Who is the stupid bird?"

"You - you - stupid bird! Stupid bird!"

"Hey! Have you learned to swear?!" King Xing quickly took away the food box that the parrot was about to eat, "If you keep swearing, Xiao Wang won't give you anything to eat!"

"I'm not a stupid bird! I'm not a stupid bird!"

"Ninth brother, don't torture it, its injury is just right." The little princess looked at the parrot a little unbearably, "Hurry up and return the food box to it!"

"Xiao Wang won't be as knowledgeable as a stupid bird!" Xing Wang said, putting the food box back, and the shock made several nuts fall out!

The parrot flew over quickly, trying to catch the nuts, only to realize that its wings were injured and could not be controlled, so it had to stop awkwardly on the ground and start pecking.
"Don't waste it! Don't waste it!"

King Xing saw peanuts among the fallen nuts, and couldn't help thinking about the case of the girl. He touched the little princess's head and said, "It's only natural for my brother to protect my sister, just like the second brother would protect Xiao Wang! Brother Ninth will definitely protect you." of!"

The little princess heard the pity in the words, grabbed King Xing's hand with her fleshy hands, and smiled brightly~
"Your Majesty is here—" At this time, the voice of the father-in-law who sent the message sounded in the palace, and everyone rushed out to welcome him.

Concubine Wu took the lead and waited at the gate with the palace people. After the emperor arrived, everyone saluted together.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty—"

King Xing hurried over with his younger sister, saluted and said: "I see my father."

The little princess said in a milky voice, "Ling'er sees Father."

"Get up." The emperor walked to Concubine Wu Gui and said, "I'm afraid that Lin'er will cause trouble for my concubine, so I'll come and have a look."

"Your Majesty is joking!" Concubine Wu Gui smiled shyly, "The Ninth Prince has always been lively and well-behaved, and he has become more sensible recently, so how could he cause trouble for the courtiers and concubines?"

"Oh? Lin'er is still sensible recently?" The emperor looked at King Xing and smiled, "I have learned to sneak out of the palace!"

Upon hearing this, Concubine Wu quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, it was the concubine who made a slip of the tongue and what the concubine meant was"

"Okay!" The emperor helped Concubine Wu Gui and said, "I know that Lin'er and Ling'er have a good relationship, so you can't say anything more, I don't blame you, just get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty~" Concubine Wu said softly with her eyes downcast and a smile.

The emperor looked at King Xing and said, "Did you enjoy your time out of the palace?"

"Father~" King Xing pouted, "You have misunderstood my son! My son has indeed slipped out. Firstly, I miss the second emperor brother. Second, I just want to see the outside world. This time I am leaving the palace. Only then did my son know that there are still people who don’t have enough to eat and live in dilapidated houses that don’t even count as houses.” He looked at the little princess and couldn’t bear to say, “There are also those poor girls.”

Emperor: "I heard that you were intoxicated by the ecstasy incense, and you still help arrest the murderer?"

King Xing scratched the back of his head, and said shyly, "My son wanted to help, but in the end he didn't help at all."

"I dote on you too much!" The emperor raised his finger and was about to hit King Xing on the head, but when he saw the other party's eyes narrowed, he withdrew his hand in a daze.
As soon as King Xing saw that he didn't need to be beaten, he immediately smiled brightly and said: "My son knows it, hehe, Father is reluctant~"

The emperor pretended to be ignorant and said, "I've never seen any prince with a playful smile like you!"

"Father~" King Xing grabbed the corner of the emperor's clothes and said, "You have a large number of adults, so don't hold your sons accountable. When the crown prince brother and the second emperor brother were working alone, they were not as big as the sons, and the sons were not as big as the sons. I want to catch up with my brothers and solve problems for my father~"

The emperor showed a gratified smile, looked at the little princess and said, "Ming'er has told me about the detailed process, and in your case, just like Aifei said, you are more sensible, so I won't pursue it this time."

"Thank you, father!" King Xing saluted happily.

After the emperor gave King Xing the look of knowing his son Mo Ruofu, he said to the little princess, "Ling'er, what are you playing with brother Jiu?"

"Father, Ling'er saved a beautiful bird." The little princess hid behind King Xing, pointed to the inner courtyard and said, "Ninth brother snatched the bird's food box."

"Beautiful bird." The emperor withdrew his smile, and then said with a smile, "Take the emperor to see, what kind of bird is so beautiful?"

"Yes~" the little princess nodded obediently.

When the emperor came to the inner courtyard and saw the parrot, his face became a bit cold, and he turned his mouth again and said to Concubine Wu: "When did this bird come?"

Concubine Wu: "A few days ago, it fell into the concubine's palace. Ling'er likes animals. Seeing that its wings were injured, she took it in."

"I'm not a stupid bird! I'm not a stupid bird!" The parrot has already stood back on the stand, shouting this sentence when it sees anyone!
"A few days ago," the emperor's expression remained unchanged, he turned around and said, "My concubine, since Lin'er is still obedient, I will go back to Qinzheng Hall."

"Did Your Majesty not stay for dinner just now?" Wu Guifei asked regretfully.

"No, I will come to see you again when I have time." The emperor walked out directly.

Seeing that she couldn't stay, Concubine Wu Gui could only salute and said, "Respectfully send off Your Majesty—"

All the people saluted and sent off.

After getting on the chariot and leaving the Xing'e Palace for a certain distance, the emperor said to Eunuch Liu: "Check out the origin of this parrot, check out Wu Guifei, and even check out Lifei."

"Yes." Eunuch Liu bowed.

An hour later, Concubine Li sent someone to pick up King Xing, and Sister Ju entered the main house with snacks.

Sister Orange: "Master, are we getting too close to the Ninth Prince?"

"Don't worry, His Majesty didn't come here to blame the Ninth Princes at all today. If he wanted to blame him, he would have called to Qinzheng Palace!" Concubine Wu Gui looked at the scenery outside the door and said, "Your Majesty gave these princes the title of king early, it is clear Tell everyone that the crown prince belongs to the eldest prince. You see, the most competitive one is the second prince. Your majesty let him go out of the palace to build a mansion early. It is conceivable how much your majesty loves the prince. It's a pity that I don't have the chance to see him Concubine Qin, I really don’t know how beautiful Concubine Qin can make His Majesty so fond of her.”

Sister Orange: "Master, be careful not to let others take what you say out of context!"

Concubine Wu Guifei said disapprovingly: "I just said a few words of emotion. Anyway, I don't have any sons, so I can't fight for anything. I just hope that Ling'er will grow up well, choose someone she likes in the future, and don't be taken by His Majesty to make a marriage. Be happy." Live forever!"

Sister Orange took a look at the quiet outside, and said with a gentle smile: "Your Majesty is kind, she will surely make her wish come true~"

"Oh, that's right!" Concubine Wu Gui suddenly recalled something and shouted, "Last time, Your Majesty said that you want to send someone to teach Princess Yi'an the court etiquette person?"

Sister Ju smiled and said: "I have already chosen, empress, don't worry, this person is absolutely reliable!"

Concubine Wu Gui opened her eyes wide and said, "I'm even curious as to which nanny it is!"

Sister Orange responded with a gentle and positive smile!
On the outskirts of Beijing, the summer breeze blows gently, blowing the gorgeous green plants and the grass beside the grave.

The prince, Qi Ming and Yan Mo worshiped the old grandmother together.

After inserting the incense, Yan Mo asked, "Her granddaughter."

Lu Jiu: "Princess, don't worry, my subordinates have already buried her with grandma."

"May they rest here in peace." After finishing speaking, the prince put incense on them.

Yan Mo: "Is there any news about the impoverished area in the east of the city?"

Qi Ming withdrew his hand from inserting the incense, and said to Yan Mo, "Don't be in a hurry, it takes time and effort to check layers, but."

Yan Mo: "But what?"

Qi Ming: "The matter of household registration is always inseparable from the household department."

Yan Mo recalled: "Master Yuan, Minister of the Ministry of Households?"

Qi Ming nodded.

Yan Mo spat: "It's that old thief again!"

"Yuan Shangshu is not in the capital." The prince turned to face Yan Mo and said, "The household department is temporarily represented by the household servant, Nan Shu, and it is not the best time to interrogate Yuan Shangshu."

The three of them got into the carriage while discussing, preparing to go back to the palace.

After Yan Mo sat down, he rested his chin in one hand and thought, "The Ministry of Finance is one direction, is there any other way?"

The prince also thought about it: "The society and the people's livelihood, all kinds of things in the world, are nothing more than rules and regulations, legal principles and sentiments."

"Fa Liqing?" Yan Mo suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "Yes! It's love!!"

Both Qi Ming and the prince wondered: "?"

Yan Mo: "Let me think about it carefully, you just check the household department, and when I think it over, we can discuss it together!"

After returning to the palace, Yan Mo locked himself in the room to sort out his thoughts, the side room was even more deserted when King Xing was away, and the crown prince still helped Qi Ming sort out various documents
Half an hour later, Xiao Ren flew down from the eaves, knelt down on one knee, and handed over a roll of paper.

Qi Ming took it and opened it, took a look, waved his hand, and the maidservants retreated quietly.

Xiao Ren waited until King Yi'an and the crown prince were left in the house, and said, "Master, this is a report on the border of the Western Regions. Bulehaji is a common name in the Western Regions. If you don't have a surname, it's hard to check."

"Isn't Bulehaji's full name?" Qi Ming flipped through the scroll and said, "Where is that village? Have you found it?"

Xiao Ren: "According to the informant, the village does exist, but after asking around, no one knows Bule Haji, and no one knows Benny Benny"

Qi Ming: "Bennifer Sentingba."

The more the prince listened, the more confused he became: "Brother Ming, what are you talking about?"

Qi Ming: "Bennifer Saintingba is the second master's western domain name."

"You're checking Mr. Qingmu?" The prince was slightly surprised.

Qi Ming: "Brother Huang, don't you want to know the identity of this second master?"

Prince: "It's not uncommon for men from the Western Regions to go to the Central Plains, but"

Qi Ming: "It's just that he just follows Yan Mo. I have to be careful."

Xiao Ren smiled with embarrassing eyebrows: "Hey! The name of the Western Regions is really hard to remember. His Royal Highness, the prince, the second head of the family has been in the Central Plains for nearly ten years, and Bulehaji has passed away for a long time. The locals have probably forgotten it."

Prince: "Not Haji?"

Qi Ming: "Bulehaji is the master of the second master and also his adoptive father."

The prince understood: "Oh"

Qi Ming said to Xiao Ren: "He travels frequently between the Western Regions and the Central Plains, it is impossible that no one knows him."

Xiao Ren handed over another dossier and said: "My subordinates have checked, and there is a record of the second master's dealings at the Western Region Pass. The name is Aoki Teru, and the record began ten years ago."

Qi Ming looked at the file and said to himself: "Ten years ago, the Yang Family Escort Bureau also came to the capital ten years ago, why did everything happen to happen at this time of ten years?"

When the prince heard this, his body tensed up. Speaking of ten years ago, the memory of Mojiazhuang was vivid in his mind. He clenched his fist and said, "Brother Ming, do you suspect that he has something to do with the dead man back then?"

Hearing this, Qi Ming couldn't help frowning: "My younger brother really wants to find out the background of the second master. I have always had doubts about whether he is related to the dead man."

Xiao Ren also said nervously: "Master, since this is the case, this subordinate will let the informant continue to investigate! Digging the ground three feet is also necessary."

Qi Ming raised his hand and said: "...If he is really related to the dead man, he will alarm the other party if he goes to war. The Western Regions will continue to conduct secret investigations and report regularly."

"Yes!" Xiao Ren got the order and went out.

Prince: "Brother Ming! This person has to be guarded!"

"Brother Huang, don't worry. He has been by Yan Mo's side for nearly ten years. If he wants to do harm, there are plenty of opportunities." Qi Ming said with a smile.

The prince opened his eyes and stared at the other person, wondering who this "other person" was.
"My lord!" Lu Jiu trotted in and said, "The plaque is finally delivered, when will it be delivered to the other courtyard?"

Qi Ming and the prince looked at each other: "Call the princess and the people in the other courtyard, and set off immediately."

"Yes!"

"Brother Huang is going to be wronged." Qi Ming smiled at the prince and said.

Half an hour later, the farewell team assembled at the gate of the palace, beating gongs and drums, and the guard of honor lined up, ready to set off. Those who opened the way held a plaque with red gauze and brocade on it, with the four characters "Xiaolin Bieyuan" written on it.

Guard Jin and Yan Mo sat on both sides of Qi Ming, the main carriage was driven by Lan Bo, and the others shared the other carriage, driven by Lu Jiu.

There was a sound of firecrackers, the guard of honor started, and people in Beijing all knew that the other courtyard of King Yi'an was called Xiaolin.

After leaving the hustle and bustle of the town, it was almost dusk when King Yi'an's convoy arrived at the other courtyard. Lu Jiu arranged for craftsmen to place the plaque on the gate.

From Qingxi to the end of the mountain, the flying road is empty and small.The clouds, water and sky are dim, and the clear scenery falls into the sky.

Guard Jin got off the carriage and saw such a scene. When he saw the plaque that had been hung, he said to Qi Ming, "Isn't this too urgent? Others hang plaques in the morning, we"

Qi Ming smiled to himself: "Yan'er won't mind, my brother not only wants to show Brother Huang a taste of Auntie's cooking skills, but also wants to show you someone."

"Who are you seeing?" Jin Wei looked back at Qi Ming curiously.

"The head of the family—" Auntie Chef came out and was very happy to see the plaque, and she was even more happy to see Yan Mo who got off the car, "You finally think of us!"

Yan Mo: "Aunt Chef, is everything okay in the other courtyard?"

"It's all good." Just as Aunt Chef finished laughing, she suddenly yelled, "No! Master, that girl is gone!!"

Yan Mo asked suspiciously, "Which girl?"

Aunt Cook: "It's the girl who doesn't want to talk! Mr. Qi brought it back from Anyan Town, and she hasn't opened her mouth. Have you forgotten?"

Yan Mo responded: "Ah! I really forgot!! Why didn't she disappear?"

"Well," Aunt Chef recalled, "a few days ago, she was finally willing to leave her room, but she was only willing to hang around in the courtyard. If I took her out of another courtyard, she would not leave. I got up early this morning to deliver food to her. , and found that she was gone!! Only left.” She groped around for a while, and finally found something, “This!”

Yan Mo picked up the object in the opponent's hand and looked at it. It seemed to be a fragment of something. The rough edges had been rounded due to age. She picked it up and took a closer look. The middle of the fragment was empty, just right. It is the shape of an eye.

Yan Mo: "A fragment of the mask?"

　When I was writing the theater in Xingwang's mind, the word "Red Dust as a companion" suddenly appeared, and I felt inexplicably familiar. On second thought, isn't it "Dang"! "Let us be companions in the world of mortals, and live a chic and unrestrained life." Well, so I finished writing while vomiting and laughing!What's disgusting is that King Xing is really shameless!
