Chapter 22

Recently, it has been rumored that King Jiangbei has a very good relationship with His Royal Highness King Su.

They are almost inseparable, and they can often be seen eating at the same table in various restaurants.

Little did they know that the two rumored to have a very good relationship were relatively silent when they sat together on the same road, and the atmosphere was really awkward and frozen.

Words of mouth, somehow entered the emperor's ears.

The next day, after the imperial eunuch Gao announced his resignation, he hurriedly sent someone to look for someone outside the Qizheng Hall.

Lu Yong was blocked by a strange-looking servant. He was about to ask a question when he saw Eunuch Gao who had followed Emperor Chengde come over.

Eunuch Gao is the emperor's personal attendant, and he must have brought Emperor Chengde's will to come here at this moment.

With an easygoing smile, he gave a slight salute and said, "I have seen His Royal Highness Su, and His Majesty called you to Changxing Palace."

Lu Qi was slightly stunned, and subconsciously turned around to look for the familiar figure in the crowd. He saw two men of similar stature who were wearing court uniforms walking past him, and one of them seemed to feel something. Turning around, he glanced in his direction, his eyes were as indifferent as water, and after a slight pause, he passed away like a stranger.

Lu Yong took two steps forward, put his hands on the railing, couldn't help following their figures, his eyes were blatant, Fu Chengci had a smile on his lips, turned his head slightly, and his eyes showed unprecedented tenderness.This scene is eye-catching.

Are they reconciled? !

The hands on the guardrail couldn't help but clenched tightly, his face was cold, and even Eunuch Gao's voice was hazy in his ears like a cloud of smoke.

The monstrous anger swept over, and with it came the deep powerlessness and exhaustion deep in his heart.

After the figures of the two people descended the long steps, Lu Qi withdrew his hand. The corner of his mouth curled up in an unnatural arc, and he said softly, "Thank you, Eunuch Gao, for leading the way."

Eunuch Gao, who was suddenly named, panicked in vain, and his smile was a little stiff, "His Royal Highness, please come with this old slave."

His back was slightly bent, and out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of the young man's bloody palms hanging by his side, his heart skipped a beat, and he looked up again, and saw the young man's face was bland and breezy with a faint and alienated arc at the corner of his mouth , as if the pain of flesh and blood could not bring him any harm.

When he reached the gate of the hall, Eunuch Gao paused, turned sideways and bowed politely: "His Royal Highness, please, the old servant will not accompany you."

Lu Qi nodded.

Walking into the hall, there was no one there, and the glazed tiles reflected a hazy outline. He stood respectfully on the spot, his eyelids drooping, and his long eyelashes cast a thick shadow on his face.

After a long time, a person came out from the screen behind the Changxing Palace. The person was dressed in gilt gold clothing, with a rusty five-clawed real dragon, and colorful clouds on his belt. .

Lu Yong bowed and bowed, "I have seen my father."

Emperor Chengde walked up to the young man, looked down for a long time with his sharp eyes, and said in a deep voice after a while, "Do you know what I called you for?"

Lu Qi was silent, and shook his head under the gaze of the hawk-like eyes.

Emperor Chengde suddenly looked away and didn't call him to get up. The two just stood and knelt down, asking and answering questions.

"I heard that you have had a lot of contact with the King of Jiangbei recently." Emperor Chengde's eyes fell on the top of the young man's hair wearing a crown and hairpin again, his eyes were as deep as water, and he stated a fact calmly and calmly.

"The friendship between gentlemen is as light as water," Lu Yong said.

"Friends of gentlemen," Emperor Chengde spat out these four words softly, with a meaningful smile: "You know, the second son of the Jiangbei Palace should have come to the capital, not the Jiangbei King, why is it the Jiangbei King who came now? "

Lu Yong really didn't know this question. Ever since he returned to China when he saw Fu Chengci at Honglu Temple, he had doubts. He was not qualified to ask before, and then he had no chance to ask. Others wondered why the king of Jiangbei settled in the capital. Known answers are also ambiguous.

Deep smiles spread out in the empty hall, extremely oppressive.

"The king of Jiangbei has feelings for the prince, do you know that?"

Like a heavy thunder, the hammer fell.After Emperor Chengde finished speaking, he watched Lu Qi's expression closely, and refused to give a single detail.

Lu Yong's heart was turbulent, and a stunned expression appeared on his face just right, and his indifferent eyes were full of confusion.

This confusion mixed with different surprises was so realistic that Emperor Chengde believed it for the time being.

Then, he said slowly: "Fu Chengci is a Jiangbei general. I have many princesses who want to honor him, but this man's heart has fallen on a man. He is affectionate and fickle. He can be a general. , It can also be a tiger or a leopard. A cage can’t trap him, it’s better to keep him under your nose.”

Lu Qi knelt on the cool ground, his ears were buzzing, and the chill ran down his knees into his limbs and bones, and the cold penetrated into his bones.

Emperor Chengde looked at this face and fell into deep memories, his eyes were full of nostalgia, but it passed by so fast that it was hard to notice.
