Both Liu Bang and Empress Lu sealed up what happened that day. Even the people in the palace had no idea what happened. They just knew that Mrs. Qi was no longer favored and had moved out of her original residence. Now only Ruyi lives there.
.
It has been a long time since my father held a banquet. It is said that my father has not been in good health recently and he has summoned seven or eight new doctors from various places.
However, judging from the fact that my father called Mrs. Cao and Mrs. Shi in to serve, there is probably no big problem.
Liu Bang did not hold a banquet, but Empress Lu held a banquet first. It was not really a banquet. He just asked his fourth brother and his biological mother to have a meal together alone. Of course Liu Chang would not miss it. He had been preparing for the evening banquet since the morning.
Prepare to be hungry all day long.
Therefore, as soon as the banquet started, the young master wolfed down his food. He had a huge appetite. Liu Heng greeted Empress Lu respectfully, but Liu Chang ignored Mrs. Bo at all and just buried his head in rebellion. Empress Lu's face twitched.
He twitched and cleared his throat.
Liu Chang raised his head suddenly. He was quite alert to his mother's warning. His mouth was full of food, and he said with a vague giggle: "Stop... reduce... thin... um...
"
Mrs. Bo chuckled lightly, "In the future, he will definitely be a tall and strong son... Among the princes, except for the prince, he is the most sincere to others..."
Empress Lu shook her head and said, "You can't accomplish anything if you are stubborn and stubborn."
Mrs. Bo asked the palace maid to bring a gift, but it was not for Empress Lu, but for Liu Chang. It was a new coat, all red, mixed with white cloud and dragon patterns, and white beasts embroidered on the front and back.
At the first glance, Liu Chang couldn't take his eyes away.
"I had nothing to do, so I made clothes for all the princes. This is a long one... Come on, put it on and see if it fits you?"
"Hahaha! Okay!"
Liu Chang stretched out his hand and took the clothes, and hurriedly put them on.
"Ahem..."
Empress Lu cleared her throat again. Liu Chang was stunned, slowly took off his clothes, handed them back, and said with a slight hesitation: "I don't dare to accept this gift..."
"This was originally prepared for the young master, so don't be polite."
"okay!!"
Liu Chang put it on directly this time and fastened the buttons. He smiled stupidly and showed off his new top.
“It fits well and looks great.”
Liu Chang continued to giggle, but Empress Lu finally couldn't help it anymore, "Why don't you thank me quickly!"
"Oh, thank you, Mrs. Bo!"
"Young Master, there is no need to be polite."
Next, it’s time for the adults to chat. Empress Lu and Mrs. Bo don’t talk about state affairs. They talk about extremely boring things, such as clothes, matching, decorations, etc. Liu Chang only cares about eating meat.
Liu Heng sat next to him and said nothing.
After chatting like this all night, Mrs. Bo was finally leaving with Liu Heng. Liu Chang and Queen Lu went to see them off. When they left, Liu Chang hurriedly entangled Queen Lu.
"Mom...look, my top is really pretty."
"Um."
"Oh, it's just that I don't have any new underwear..."
"Just enough to wear."
"How can that be done? Since we are wearing new clothes, the tops, bottoms, shoes, laces, crowns, and hairpins should all be new. Only in that way will we look good... Grandma~~"
"You don't want to entertain people with sex. Why don't real men increase their abilities and indulge in beautiful clothes?"
Empress Lu scolded Liu Chang severely, and Liu Chang lowered his head in aggrieved manner.
.......
"Hahaha, how is it? Does it look good?"
"This top, these bottoms!"
Liu Chang walked around in Tianlu Pavilion a few times. He patted the dust on his clothes and deliberately lifted his lower clothes to reveal his new shoes. His face was full of pride. He looked at Ruyi triumphantly.
, just waiting for Ruyi to speak. In the past, every time he wore a brand new set of clothes to show off, Ruyi would sarcastically ask him: Are you planning to get married today?
But this time, Liu Ruyi ignored him.
He sat blankly in his seat, his face was pale, his eyes were red and swollen, and he was looking ahead blankly, as if he had suddenly become a lot shorter.
Liu Changxian showed off for a moment, then sat helplessly next to Ruyi, turning his head to look at him from time to time.
"As one wishes?"
"As one wishes?"
"elder brother?"
"King?"
Liu Chang stretched out his hand and poked Ruyi's face again. Only then did Ruyi react and turned to look at him.
"Will you practice sword practice with me today?"
"Would you like to have some fun outside the palace? Follow me to the banquet?"
"Going to ride a horse?"
"Eldest brother... don't disturb your third brother... go sit over there."
The person who spoke was Liu Heng. Liu Chang was a little helpless, muttering something in his mouth, and left. Liu Heng sat next to Ruyi, "Third brother, Gai Gong once said: Life is born with misfortunes and blessings interdependent.
Yes, some things that seem to be disasters now may not turn into blessings in the future... Yin and yang changes, and we can't see through them at the moment..."
"Mencius also said that when God wants to bestow a great mission on a person, he must first make his heart suffer, make his muscles and bones tired, and make his body suffer the pain of hunger..."
"Um."
Liu Ruyi was finally no longer indifferent. He nodded and forced a smile.
After class, Liu Ruyi was about to get up and leave when Liu Hui and Liu You formed a team to stop him. Liu Hui's smile was a little bitter and he said softly: "Third brother, I have been alone since I was a child. I just want to see my biological mother.
There is nowhere to look for. I heard that my second brother is alone in the palace. If you feel... lonely, you can come to us... There is no one there... there are only a few old palace maids..."
Liu Ruyi naturally agreed to them.
After walking for a long time, he heard someone calling him from behind, "Ruyi!!"
Ruyi stopped, turned around, and looked helplessly at Liu Chang in front of him.
"You look...not very energetic today."
Liu Ruyi looked at him quietly without replying.
Liu Chang hesitantly took off his own frenulum, looked at his new frenulum, hesitated for a long time, gritted his teeth, stepped forward, took off his brother's frenulum, and tied his own frenulum around Ruyi's
Around his waist, his lace was a bit short, and it took a lot of force to tie it on. Liu Chang tied the lace, then looked at Ruyi again and nodded, "I feel more energetic this way!"
"you..."
Liu Ruyi looked at him in surprise, smiled and touched his head.
"I've got it from my heart, you'd better bring it yourself, it's too short..."
Just as he was about to untie it, Liu Chang cursed: "You are not allowed to touch my head! Also, you are not allowed to be disrespected by me! Otherwise, I will definitely let you build a palace in the future! I will even cook you!"
"Haha, do you want to build the palace or cook it?"
"Um...repair the palace first, and then cook it after it's repaired?"
"I don't care! Just take it!"
Liu Chang said nothing, tied the Ruyi tie, turned around and ran away.
When Liu Ruyi returned to the palace alone, the eunuchs all lowered their heads. The original maids were no longer there. These eunuchs were new. Ruyi was older and could not be alone with the maids. He was about to
After taking off his clothes, he heard someone shouting: "Third brother..."
He slowly raised his head, and Prince Liu Ying walked out of the inner room. Liu Ying looked a little overwhelmed and didn't even dare to look at his younger brother. He was very uneasy and had a complicated look on his face. Even like this
, he still walked to Liu Ruyi's side.
"Third brother...I..."
"elder brother..."
When Liu Ruyi spoke, tears flowed down. He stretched out his hand and held his forehead, while tears continued to fall.
"I'm sorry for you..."
Liu Ying said, hugging the brother in front of her into her arms.
"elder brother!"
Liu Ruyi burst into tears in her eldest brother's arms, and the two brothers hugged each other tightly.
"Brother, I don't blame you... I just miss my mother... I know she is not very smart... but I still miss her..."
"I know I know."
Liu Ying patted Ruyi's back gently.
"I promise, she won't endure hardship..."
.......
In the Jiaofang Hall, Liu Chang lowered his head, and Empress Lu held a small wooden stick in her hand and patted her hands gently.
"Tell me, where is your frenulum? I just changed it today...where did it go?"
"I...I switched with someone!"
"With whom?"
"Follow...Follow Zhou Shengzhi!"
"You didn't leave the palace today, did you?"
"I..."
"Are you going to tell the truth or do you want to be beaten?"
Liu Chang simply closed his eyes and said, "Just fight!"
"Take the tie I gave you and give it to Ruyi... Is there really such an unfilial son in the world?" Queen Lu asked coldly.
Liu Chang was stunned and hurriedly shouted: "No... Mom, I know you hate Mrs. Qi, and I hate Mrs. Qi too, but Ruyi... he is very pitiful... I don't know how painful he is, but...
If...if one day you leave me alone and I can't find you, I definitely won't be able to bear it..."
Queen Lu couldn't bring down the wooden stick she raised. She hesitated for a long time and finally put it away.
