When Si Heng heard the sound, he immediately woke up and said to the door:

"Wait a moment."

Gao Yun stopped urging.

Your Majesty was late for the morning court yesterday. I don’t know what will happen today.

"Serve some breakfast." Si Heng said.

The only sound outside the door was the gentle movement of palace people.

The hall seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, and it was hazy until dawn, which made people feel a layer of haze in their hearts. Even their breathing became tense and they did not dare to let out the air.

Si Heng's heart was also tense until the palace door was knocked again: "Your Majesty, breakfast is ready."

The familiar pain reappeared, with a splitting headache, and the bones all over his body felt like needles pricking them, or like burning fire.

Such severe pain made Si Heng feel at ease. His body slowly returned to its original state. He put on his imperial robes and turned to look at the bed. The little prince was gone, leaving only an empty set of clothes.

"Father..."

A small hand stretched out from the collar and shook it.

Si Heng found a small set of clothes and put them on his little hand.

Soon, the little hand retracted, and after a rustling sound, the little prince crawled out.

Si Heng lifted him up and put him in his sleeves, and then let the palace servants come in. He arranged breakfast and prepared toiletries. After they had arranged the arrangements, he left on his own.

Si Heng then wiped the little prince's face and washed his hands, and then fed him custard and half a piece of yam cake. Seeing the little prince holding the yam cake with both hands and eating the cake in small bites, a smile appeared in his eyes unconsciously.

"Father?" Si Ruochen looked at him for a long time and turned his head.

"Eat, I will take you to court later." Si Heng often neglected breakfast and had no appetite, but now that he was living with the little prince, he couldn't let the child be like him.

"Okay." Si Ruochen nodded.

Si Heng ate some casually, then wiped the little prince's face and hands, took the little prince with him, and went to court together.

Today, Si Heng brought an extra small soft cushion and spread it on the dragon chair, covering it with his sleeve so that the little prince could catch up on his sleep.

Maybe it was because he didn't get enough sleep at night. Yesterday, Si Ruochen was able to concentrate on listening to the affairs of the court, but today he fell into a deep sleep.

Si Heng selected the people who would patrol the river, then returned to Zichen Palace and put the little prince down. Seeing that he was still asleep, he put a soft handkerchief on his belly.

It was almost noon when Si Ruochen woke up. Chang Sheng slept lazily all morning. When he saw Si Ruochen waking up, he meowed a few times and nuzzled over.

"Are you hungry?" Si Ruochen asked.

Chang Sheng nodded repeatedly.

Si Heng looked at Gao Yun: "Here comes a fish."

Gao Yun: "..."

As expected of His Majesty’s cat, it’s really quite spiritual! No wonder His Majesty has been eating fish for every meal these days. It turns out it’s for this cat!

After lunch, Si Heng summoned Gao Ying and asked:

"Is there any letter from the Zhou family sent to the palace?"

"General Zhou has replied to the letter, asking Empress Zhou to return to her favor as soon as possible."

"Empress Zhou wants to perform a dance at the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet and hopes General Zhou will provide assistance." Gao Ying briefly summarized.

Letters have been circulating in the hands of people in the Zhou family, and sometimes special means are needed to reveal the contents. In order to prevent the Zhou family's informants from discovering anything strange, Gao Ying will only check the contents and not intercept the letters.

"Send someone to keep an eye on Zhou. Stay hidden and keep your distance from her."

"See if she behaves strangely, or has any sudden changes in her body, such as suddenly becoming more beautiful, or taking out things out of thin air." Si Heng said.

"Yes." Gao Ying took the order and left.

He thought that recently, His Majesty suddenly sent people to find an expert from outside the world, and suddenly demoted Zhou Guifei to a commoner. Linking these things together, wasn't it the Zhou family that had a problem?

Only monsters and spirits can take things out of thin air and suddenly become beautiful. Thinking of this, Gao Ying decided to find some special people to keep an eye on Zhou. At least, they can't be fascinated by beauty.

In the afternoon, go to the study.

There were more than thirty people sitting in the palace, including five princes, descendants of the royal family, and descendants of noble families. Today, the Master was conducting a spot check. The fifth prince, who had always been anxious and uneasy, straightened his back and took the initiative to look at the Master with confident eyes.

"Your Highness, come here."

"Meng Ke Dun Su, Shi Yu Bing Zhi..." The fifth prince spoke fluently, enunciated the words clearly, and memorized them completely. Not only the master, but also everyone else was shocked.

As we all know, the fifth prince has dull talents and cannot be cultivated. Young children who have just started to learn can catch up with his learning progress and quickly surpass the fifth prince.

He is the lowest person in the entire upper study room, and is also the source of security for many children of aristocratic families. Now, the fifth prince has changed!

The fifth prince looked at the disbelief in everyone's eyes and snorted coldly, "You ignored me in the past, but you will be unable to reach your heights in the future!"

From now on, he will no longer be the worst student in the study room!

"good."

"You must learn from His Highness the Fifth Prince."

The always stern Taifu praised the fifth prince for the first time.

It seems that the fifth prince is not really stupid. Once he encounters a crisis, he can cheer up and study hard.

"Yaoyou

Today's progress is thanks to Taifu's careful teaching. "

Not only did the fifth prince's memory improve, but he also thought about things more clearly. Now he knew how to gain the favor of his master.

"Oh, I just learned a thousand-character essay, what does this mean?"

"If you have the ability, you can recite the Book of Documents by heart."

"Did he hide his clumsiness before? It's strange, why can't I see it? He hid it so deeply..."

After school, everyone looked at the back of the fifth prince and started talking.

The fifth prince, like the other princes, has two companions.

One is the eldest grandson of the Zhou family, and the other is the son of the Marquis. He usually bullies others. When he heard others talking, he subconsciously wanted to rush over and teach them a lesson.

"Cousin, don't pay attention to them. They are just gossips and not important." The fifth prince stopped them. Fighting and causing trouble in the study room would not do any good. On the contrary, it would make his father angry.

Isn't it "Shang Shu"? He can memorize it quickly.

"Your Highness, you are really different from the past."

"But we can't just let them go. We'll give them a lesson when the shooting ceremony begins..."

Although the fifth prince was a mess in his studies and quite talented in martial arts, and he was already proficient in archery at a young age, he was playful and did not like to repeat boring exercises.

Recently, he witnessed the drastic changes in Chengde Palace. Aunt Zhou was in bed recovering from her injuries, and his mother and concubine were confined in the palace and fell into the water and fell into coma... He finally calmed down and started practicing step by step.

"Fifth brother is a blessing in disguise."

The second prince said casually to the third prince beside him.

He is the same age as the prince, but was born only one day later than the prince. He looks more like his mother. He has a pair of narrow red phoenix eyes, and he looks at people with a sense of scrutiny.

"Don't you think it's a little strange?" the third prince asked.

"Fifth brother's brain can actually memorize a thousand-character essay."

The third prince's facial features are exquisite, and there is a cinnabar mole between his eyebrows. His lips are red and his teeth are white, making him look delicate and beautiful.

When it comes to looks, he is one of the best in the entire study; when it comes to reading, he has a photographic memory. Although he is one year younger than the second prince, he has already caught up with him.

"Yes, looking at his brain, he doesn't seem to be able to hide his clumsiness."

"What good food has he eaten?" the second prince couldn't help but wonder.

"What good food? I want to eat good food too!"

"Where are they! Second brother and third brother, what are you eating!"

When the fat fourth prince heard the word "eat", he stood up

He raised his ears and squeezed over.

"Here, eat."

The third prince took out a piece of beef jerky from his purse.

The fourth prince quickly took it and, like a fat mole, began to nibble on the beef jerky. He did not forget to say thank you: "Third brother, you are so kind!"

"Isn't the second brother bad?"

The second prince took out a few pine nut candies from his purse.

"It's okay, second brother!" The fourth prince took it and happily put the candy into his purse. His mother and concubine have not allowed him to eat sweets recently, but fortunately the royal brothers will help him out.

"Bring it here!" The prince stretched out his hand, his face expressionless.

When he had a straight face, he looked quite similar to His Majesty.

Very useful when intimidating several younger brothers.

"Brother..."

The bright smile on the fourth prince's face disappeared instantly.

"A few days ago, half of your face was swollen because of toothache."

The prince reached out and glanced at the fourth prince's overly round cheeks. The fourth brother has loved to eat since he was a child. He has several cavities in his teeth and we can no longer let him continue to eat sweets.

"I'm getting better these days, and I won't hurt anymore..."

Under his gaze, the fourth prince had to take out the candy and put it in the palm of the prince's hand.

"I gave you five. Where is the other one? Bring it."

The prince's eyes were sharper than an eagle's.

The fourth prince had to take out the last candy and put it in the palm of the prince's hand. He had changed from a happy little mole to a sad little bitter melon.

He looked eagerly at the second and third brothers aside.
