Such a sloppy and unkempt person would not believe that he was the prince. ∈◆ But he was Yang Xi who had just returned from Nanqi. Along the way, he was basically worried and afraid. He was chased and even had to sleep in the open. Even if he wanted to sort it out for him, he would be afraid that he would be recognized. So he still looked like this when he went to Luoyang.

Han Jian personally supported Yang Xi, with Gu Wei and Pan Xiang following behind him. When the three of them walked to the palace gate, Yang Xi still looked up at the palace gate, with some hollowness in his eyes. He used to be familiar with this place, but in just over two years, it seemed like two centuries had passed. Now looking at the palace gate again makes him sad.

"Prince, please enter the palace." Han Jian reminded.

Yang Xi then withdrew his gaze and walked towards the palace gate. But when he saw the ministers kneeling inside the palace gate, he took two steps back nervously, as if he was a little afraid of his life. But Han Jian and Gu Wei Pan Li were beside him and behind him, and he had no choice but to retreat. Until he felt that the people in front of him were not malicious to him, he mustered up the courage to go to the palace. This time, he walked much faster, as if he wanted to escape the "dangerous" place at the palace gate.

Han Jian and Gu Weipan looked at each other. At this time, all the civil and military officials had already stood up in scattered positions. There were some ministers who wanted to go up to greet Yang Xi, but Yang Xi had no intention of socializing in the face of these people. He quickly walked over, which made the several ministers who had once been familiar with Yang Xi a little embarrassed. In the end, these ministers gathered together. After all, the prince's return to the court may be a good thing for them. This at least means that someone can check and balance the Eastern Prince's Mansion in power. But it is obvious that Yang Xi's return to the court this time was planned by the Eastern Prince's Mansion. From the beginning of Yang Xi's appearance, he did not even say a word, and even had an abnormal feeling of behavior. They still felt worried in their hearts. Could it be that Yang Xi was "crazy"?

At this time, Han Jian would not explain anything to anyone. He and Gu Weipan followed Yang Xi's footsteps, while the civil and military ministers behind him were going to follow him, but their pace was obviously slower. Many people had not yet walked out of the shock just now, and the prince returned to the court. Such a grand event. Although all civil and military officials came out to greet him in person, it was obviously a bit hasty, because no one had heard of the news before. Even the Southern Qi side did not release the wind, which was unexpected.

Back in the Ye'an Pavilion yard, when all the civil and military officials followed, they saw Yang Xi sitting on the steps in front of Ye'an Pavilion, as if he was resting, as if he was looking for his previous feelings. Generally speaking, he was still acting abnormally. Sitting there like a lonely old man, even Han Jian and Gu Weipan did not urge him to interrupt him.

Seeing the ministers coming in scattered, Yang Xi's eyes fell on these people, one by one, as if he wanted to find someone he knew among them. But even if he knew some of them, he did not stop, but continued to scan, and finally everyone came in. He looked at the gate of the courtyard with a blank look, as if he was looking at someone's arrival.

But it was empty. Obviously no one would come.

"The prince is a thousand years old!"

Suddenly, one of the people shouted out, knelt on the ground, crying while wiping tears. It was Lin Ke who was still smart in front of Han Jian, Ye'an Pavilion just now.

As Lin Ke's unique move came out, it seemed to have appeal. Many ministers knelt on the ground with him, shouting "Qiansui" while crying. But they didn't know if they were really sad or posing. At least many of the people who kneeled behind were just following the crowd, not sincere at all.

Yang Xi glanced at these people, but shook his head slightly and stood up, turned around and walked into the palace gate. He muttered casually: "It's so fake."

Lin Ke, who was kneeling in front, was stunned when he heard this. Is he mocking him?

Although this sounds strange, it also means that the prince is not a three-year-old child and is not crazy. He can tell the falsehood of their crying. Moreover, he is so straightforward that he can't continue to act. Lin Ke wiped his tears and was about to enter Ye'an Pavilion with Yang Xi, but was stopped by the guards at the door.

"You cannot enter until you are summoned." The guard said coldly.

Lin Ke was disappointed. It was not that he didn't understand the rules. He always felt that the prince's return was a good opportunity for him to make a comeback. Now he suddenly realized that even if the prince came back, the prince was now unpowerful. Even Yang Rui, an emperor, could not control the power. He even had to commit himself to the Eastern King in exchange for the support of the Eastern King's Mansion. The prince could only be a puppet when the queen's child was born. Maybe when the queen's child was born, Yang Xi's position as the prince would be deposed. It would be better to be a little more aware of himself. It would be better to be a matter of abolishing the prince. It would be a matter of simply giving up the precepts for him. How many people would be sought after because of this.

"Shangshu Ning, Minister Lin, what are you waiting for? The prince summons you!" Han Jian suddenly appeared at the door and said.

Ning Yuan was very regular. He was not moved when a group of ministers knelt on the ground and howled wolves. It was not that he was not "loyal to the emperor and love the prince", but that he knew that he should be closer to the Dongwang Mansion to make clear his position, because those who knelt on the ground were now unsuccessful and belonged to Lin Ke's group. If he didn't kneel, the faction behind him would not kneel. When the prince said "too fake", he was relieved. At least this showed that not only saved the face of the Dongwang Mansion, but also left a pretty good impression in front of the prince, it could be said that he had a good bet.

Ning Yuan and Lin Ke have different official positions now. Even if the crown prince is summoned, they must distinguish between the main and the second, and enter the Ye'an Pavilion one by one. At this time, Gu Weipan was sighing a little. Others cried and could not be fake anymore. But Gu Weipan had been sincere in tears at the palace gate before, and anyone could see that. Now others don't need to think too much about it. The reason why Gu Weipan was willing to come out again was because the crown prince returned to the court, and others held more respect for Gu Weipan.

"Please pay tribute to Your Highness the Crown Prince." Ning Yuan and Lin Ke knelt down and bowed. There was no need for such a great tribute on weekdays, but now the Crown Prince has just returned to the court, and as ministers, they also know that this is a basic etiquette.

He saluted Yang Xi, who was sitting in Yang Rui's seat and was still a little uneasy.

Yang Xi just glanced at the two of them, and suddenly looked at Han Jian with curiosity and asked, "Who is it?"

Although Lin Ke and Ning Yuan were important officials of the court in the past, they were basically the most powerful ministers in the past two years, especially Lin Ke. He was the Minister of the East Pavilion and had no connection with the sixth prince in the palace. When Yang Xi was still in Luoyang, Ning Yuan was just the right minister of the Ministry of Rites and was not a high-ranking official in the court. Even if he had seen him in public, Yang Xi would not remember it.

"When the crown prince, Shangshu Ning is the current Minister of Personnel and the head of the Shangshu. The other is Minister Lin, the Minister of Personnel, and he was also the head of Shangshu." Han Jian said with rituals.

"Oh." Yang Xi nodded. Just when Ning Yuan and Lin Ke thought the prince would say hello to them, Yang Xi suddenly asked, "Where is my sister."

Han Jian bowed again: "Your Majesty is now recuperating from the bedroom and learns the news of the prince's return. Your Majesty is also eager to meet with the prince."

Yang Xi suddenly stood up from the chair and walked two steps and was almost moved by the table legs. Fortunately, Han Jian helped him and barely stabilized his body.

"I...I want to see my sister too." When talking about Yang Rui, Yang Xi suddenly burst into tears again, not caring about the prince's demeanor at all.

Han Jian looked at Ning Yuan and Lin Ke who were stunned, and turned his head to Yang Xi and said, "I'll accompany the prince to the inner garden to see Your Majesty."

Yang Xi didn't talk nonsense and hurriedly left Ye'an Pavilion. Ning Yuan and Lin Ke were still kneeling on the ground, but Han Jian just asked for help. He meant that he could get up, but he had to let himself go. But Gu Weipan did not follow him, because Han Jian was going to Yang Rui's bedroom, which was the forbidden place for court officials. Now the relationship between Han Jian and Yang Rui has become known to everyone in the world. One is Yang Rui's "non-in-law" and the other is the prince and Yang Rui's younger brother. It is natural for them to enter the bedroom. Others want to go in because they want to die.

Han Jian came out with Yang Xi. The officials who were still talking about each other suddenly became quiet and were watching the two of them.

Yang Xi is obviously very familiar with the geographical location of the palace and does not need Han Jian to lead the way. Now, no matter how many people there are outside, it cannot attract Yang Xi to look at it at all.

Yang Xi walked quickly, and Han Jian had to chase him slowly to follow him. The two left Ye'an Pavilion and were on the road to the bedroom. Others also knew that the prince was coming back and was going to see His Majesty. But some people were still worried. They thought, wouldn't the Eastern King be embarrassed now? The brothers and brothers met again after a long separation, and he, a powerful minister who dominated His Majesty's body, also ran in, wasn't it a boring thing for himself?

They just thought about these words, and it would be impossible to overcome their lives when they said them.

When Yang Xi and Han Jian disappeared from the crowd's sight, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and then the discussion started again. Unlike in the past, everyone now realized that even if the prince was not here, it would not be their turn to leave. Now there are so many big things happening in the capital, the queen is going to get married, and now the prince is back. Everything is basically together.

Yang Xi hurried to the door of the bedroom. When he saw the guards who were more vigilant today, he was still a little confused and didn't dare to move forward.

Han Jian waved his hand, and the guard left the guard's door, but he was also staring at this side. Yang Xi suddenly turned around and looked at Han Jian and asked, "I... how is my sister okay?"

This made Han Jian not know how to answer, saying that Yang Xi is bedridden and even becomes pregnant, everything is because of him. It is hard to say, but this is not what Yang Xi wants to hear.

Han Jian just smiled and nodded. There is no need to say much extra words. Anyway, Yang Xi is about to see Yang Rui, so why should he make a judgment on it yourself?

Yang Xi then entered the inner palace yard. After passing the door, he didn't walk so quickly. He suddenly touched his beard and said, "I...I want to sort out some goodbye to my sister."

Han Jian smiled slightly and said, "No, your sister doesn't care about these."

Yang Xi nodded, no matter how he said that he was his own sister. In the past, he was like a small flower in a greenhouse. He lived in the palace with carefree life. Even in the palace, he didn't have to think that Yang Rui was the emperor, because Yang Rui never took the airs of the emperor with his two younger brothers. But after nearly three years outside, he returned to a familiar and unfamiliar place, and began to understand many things. This palace gate was not such a simple family, but a power stage for many people to compete for. It was precisely because he was not an ordinary young man who was under house arrest by the people of Southern Qi and lived like a dog.

"When I was a child, I often came here, but after I was twelve, my sister wouldn't allow me to come in casually." Yang Xi said suddenly.

"Um."

Han Jian nodded. Yang Xi was one year older than him, and now Yang Xi is twenty years old. Originally, Yang Xi could marry a concubine and have a son to support the family without having to go to Nanqi to be his host. It seems Han Jian told Yang Rui that when Yang Xi went to Nanqi, he had his responsibility, so Han Jian tried every means to rescue Yang Xi and come back.

Yang Xi’s successful return this time was due to the contribution of the intelligence system of the Dongwang Mansion, and more because of the help of Sima Ya and King Hui Xiao Ling, otherwise Yang Xi would not have escaped successfully. However, on the way he left Jinling and returned to Luoyang, Yang Xi lived a harder life than he had before in Jinling. After several pursuits in the middle, he escaped with a life of savage. Not only were the people of Southern Qi, but also some mysterious people who were chasing him. It was because of these that Yang Xi would feel more emotional after returning to the palace.

The young man who was once in his prime turned out to be unkempt and looked like a beggar when he came back.

Yang Xi walked step by step towards Yang Rui's bedroom. When he arrived at the entrance of the bedroom, some eunuchs and palace maids were still standing. Han Jian had sent people in to pass on the news before. They knew that the prince was coming back and they all came out to greet him. Compared with the court officials, the palace officials had a deeper relationship with Yang Xi. For Yang Xi, no matter how low the status of the palace officials was, they were still watching him grow up. However, those court officials changed every three days, and they were just helping Yang Rui govern the country.

Some old palace ladies could not help but wipe their tears when they saw Yang Xi. When Yang Rui saw them, he walked a little slower, but before he could get ahead, the palace ladies were already very conscious of making a way out and let Yang Xi go in and meet Yang Rui.

The palace gate opened with a creaking sound, and a little palace maid walked out of the palace gate. It was Yang Rui's personal palace maid Huier. Huier obviously didn't know Yang Xi yet. When she saw a man who was as sloppy as an uncle in his forties stood at the door of the palace, she was still nervous, but after seeing Han Jian, she calmed down. In the past, she was the one who was most afraid of when she saw Han Jian.

Han Jian did not avoid it, but accompanied Yang Xi into the hall gate. Facing the curtains of the main hall outside and the bedroom inside, Yang Xi did not walk forward, but knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing towards Yang Ruilong's couch.

"Sister, Xi'er is back." Yang Xi's head was broken, but tears flowed out again like a dam breaking. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
