"Your Highness, why don't you go?" Yan Ruocheng deliberately knew the advisor.
"If I go out, I won't be able to move easily and will cause trouble for you." Huang Fengmo said directly without thinking too much.
"But... I want to go with Uncle Mo and my mother, the three of us." Xiao Ling went over and hugged his arm, and said a little shyly.
"But, Xiaoling, didn't you say you hated me being with your mother before? Why do you say that now?" Huang Fengmo said lightly.
Xiaoling pursed her lips and said slowly: "It's not that I hate it. Uncle Mo, please don't take it to heart about what happened last time. It's not that I hate anyone, it's just that... I'm not used to it...
.I have another relative. I want to slowly get closer to you, understand each other, and build a good relationship. Mom is right, I can't be too selfish and ignore your feelings, Uncle Mo. So I'm sorry about what happened last time.
, I went too far."
Yan Ruozhen didn't expect that Xiaoling could remember all the words he taught her one by one. She was so improved.
"You are not exaggerating at all. Did your mother teach you these words just now?" Huang Fengmo still said calmly, with no fluctuation in his expression.
Xiaoling hesitated for a moment, looked at Yan Ruocheng, and considered whether to tell the truth.
Yan Ruozhen quickly gestured to indicate to him not to speak honestly but to be more tactful.
Xiaoling saw that she agreed to tell her, so she said honestly: "Mom said I can't tell you, but I feel that I would be very sorry for you if I didn't tell the truth, so tell the truth, Uncle Mo, will you come with us?"
shop?"
After hearing this, Huang Fengmo sighed and said, "If I can't tell you, I'm afraid your mother will teach you a lot of truth again and ask you to pretend to be a sensible adult.
It seems that I am even more ignorant than a kid like you."
Xiaoling didn't understand what she heard, scratched her head and said, "Uncle Mo, are you going or not?"
Yan Ruocheng said with a smile: "Of course."
Huang Fengmo smiled lightly and let Yan Ruocheng push him out.
Instead of riding in a carriage, he came out directly from the door and was surrounded by guards. After all, as the eldest prince and sitting in a wheelchair, Huang Fengmo was too eye-catching. Therefore, precautions and protection must be strengthened.
Such a pomp attracts attention wherever he goes.
Xiaoling became more and more embarrassed as she walked. She felt it was awkward to be noticed by passers-by like this. She tugged on Yan Ruocheng's hand and said, "Mom, are we attracting too much attention like this?"
"It attracts attention. If they are used to seeing it, they won't make such a fuss. Xiaoling, don't you want to buy toys? There are a lot of new toys in the store over there." Yan Ruocheng said nonchalantly, and led Xiaoling away.
attention...
"Yes, let's go in and have a look." As soon as Xiaoling saw that there were toys to buy, she was so happy that she forgot about everything else and went into the store to choose.
Yan Ruozhen asked the guards to help take care of him, while he pushed Huang Fengmo aside.
"Your Highness, how do you feel about coming out?"
Huang Fengmo felt that the questions she asked were very deliberate. She knew how he was feeling, but she felt a little oppressed and annoyed because she heard passers-by talking about why he was like this. But she still asked him so obviously after knowing it. Was she looking for trouble?
?
He didn't answer and turned his head away slightly.
"Your Highness, whether you are depressed or unhappy, ignore these things. Just close your eyes and enjoy the feeling of being blown by the wind on the road. Turn people's words into blown petals. The petals will not
Those that will stay in the same place will just blow by." Yan Ruocheng comforted him with a metaphor. "When did you know how to coax people like this?" Huang Fengmo felt emotional after hearing her words.
After feeling a little better, he asked.
"I suddenly thought of it. Smell this flower and guess what it is?" Yan Ruocheng picked up a white orchid scattered on the roadside and put it in his hand.
"White orchid, and I picked it up on the ground. You are also lacking in sincerity." Huang Fengmo speculated directly without having to smell it.
"Wow? Your Highness, you are amazing, you know it like this." Yan Ruocheng said with praise.
"It's not that I'm great, it's that you moved too much. Besides, the smell of the flowers is so fragrant. You don't need to guess." Huang Fengmo said with a restored smile.
Yan Ruocheng covered the white orchids in his palms, rubbed them together, and said, "Has your Highness guessed what this action means?"
This move confused Huang Fengmo, and he couldn't figure out her little thoughts.
"I can't guess it. Please tell me the answer."
"Hehe, then I won't tell you."
"Is this possible? Are you bullying me?"
"How can this be considered bullying?"
"Tell me, I want to know."
The less she said anything, the more interested Huang Fengmo became.
"I'll tell you when I get back after shopping."
"Don't tell me, this is just teasing me."
"Of course not. Am I that boring?"
"Hard to say."
I bought a lot of toys and followed the guards back.
"Wow, I asked you to buy a few toys, but you bought a lot." Yan Ruocheng said with her hands on her hips.
"Mom, it's so cheap. The more you buy, the cheaper it gets. The boss even gave me a discount. Brother guard, please tell me, mother, if what I said is true." Xiao Ling pulled the guard into the water to explain.
The guard nodded helplessly and agreed with his statement.
"Xiao Ling, if you feel it's not enough, you can still buy more. Uncle Mo has plenty of money, you can buy as much as you want." Huang Feng Mo said boldly.
"Your Highness, don't spoil him. You have already bought enough. No matter how many toys you buy, he will only play with them once or twice and then not play with them. It is a waste of money. It is better to buy some books for him to read and study." Yan
Ruoqi persuaded.
"Well, let's go to the bookstore."
"It's too boring to go to the bookstore, why don't we go have tea." Xiaoling suggested, pointing to the inn in front with a more luxurious appearance.
"When did I teach you that you only know how to eat and play? Well, let's go to the inn to have a rest." Yan Ruocheng said helplessly.
So, a few people went into the inn and booked a large room on the second floor to rest.
There are a few uninvited guests in the inn, hiding quietly in the room next to them.
The waiter brought the inn’s specialty pastries and famous tea.
"Mom, Uncle Mo, you guys drink tea slowly, I want to go to the toilet." Xiao Ling said, feeling anxious.
"Let the guard brother take you there." Huang Fengmo said.
"OK."
A guard took Xiao Ling out to find the toilet.
"Your Highness, the tea here is okay, you have a taste." Yan Ruocheng held the teacup in his hand.
Huang Fengmo took a sip and felt something was wrong, so he said, "Is there something wrong with this tea?"
"That's not right? Where do you mean it?" Yan Ruocheng asked in confusion. He took a few sips and didn't think there was anything wrong. It was normal to smell it.
"Just now the waiter said that the special tea here is mainly sweet. Can you taste the sweetness?" Huang Fengmo said.
"Really? I didn't even notice what the waiter just said, and there is indeed no sweetness, only the usual sweet taste. Are you trying to trick us into not knowing how to drink tea? We found fake tea to pretend to be good tea, if it hadn't been for the waiter
The second thing was leaked, and we don't know yet." Yan Ruocheng said analytically.
"It's not that the waiter let it slip, he said it on purpose. Come and take a look next door." Huang Fengmo ordered.
Sure enough, suddenly there was the sound of fighting outside.
"Your Highness, these people are sneaking around in the wing next door." The guards tied them all in and gave orders to Huang Fengmo.
"Who are you? Why are you hiding next door?" Yan Ruocheng crossed his arms and asked.
Several people looked at each other, not knowing how to explain.
"If you don't tell me, I will take you to the Yamen and torture you severely." Huang Fengmo said threateningly.
"No, Your Highness, the eldest prince, I am just a servant of Tingfeng Hall. I just came here to inquire about your situation, eldest prince. I can go back and make an appointment." These people timidly leaned their heads against each other and whispered, and discussed for a while.
, and then said it.
"Are you lying? What is Tingfeng Hall? What kind of job do you have to pay?" Yan Ruocheng didn't believe what they said.
"Girl, are you from outside the city? I have never heard of the name Tingfengtang." One of them said.
"I really haven't heard of it, what's it about?" Yan Ruocheng asked in confusion.
"Tingfengtang is a propaganda headquarters that promotes various aspects of people's lives. It is a bookstore that writes some interesting stories and makes a picture book for sale," they explained.
"Isn't it just a bookstore? Why make it so complicated?" Yan Ruocheng said boringly.
"It's not ordinary. What we buy is about interesting things about people's lives, not imaginary stories. And people also like to read it." The more they talked, the more interested they became.
Yan Ruocheng regarded them as a business run by a few like-minded people in partnership.
"That's unreasonable! You guys were secretly listening to our conversation next door and wanted to make a picture album out. I'm going to chop off your heads!" After hearing this, Huang Fengmo furiously patted the armrest of the chair and said fiercely.
"Your Highness, the eldest prince, please forgive me! We will not reveal your true identity, eldest prince, and we will use other names to describe you." They begged Huang Fengmo urgently.
"Isn't this the same? You guys really don't know how to live or die. No wonder I always hear the people discussing things in the palace. Could it be that you are also making up random stories to tell the people and order people to the city?
People's thinking has changed." Yan Ruocheng was afraid of tricking them, so he analyzed it and added fuel to the fire.
"Girl! Don't say that. We will not fabricate facts. This is the purpose of our Tingfeng Hall. Please, Your Highness, please believe our words. We will not do anything harmful to the court.
It just promotes the attitude of yearning for life." Several people explained with contempt for Yan Ruocheng.
"I believe you are weird. Someone will take them to the Yamen for a few days. I want to find out what is going on in this Tingfeng Hall?" Huang Fengmo said.
