Liusu stood there for a while, then turned and walked into the room.
Walking into the room, he saw Zhu Minglie sitting there, drinking tea by himself. When Liusu came in, he put down the cup in his hand and asked -
"Are you back?" His tone was calm, there was no anger on his face, and his calmness was a bit scary.
Liusu walked in and said, "Yeah."
"Thirteen sent you back?" he continued to ask.
"Yeah." She continued to answer.
The room suddenly became quiet, and the two of them remained silent.
The brilliance of the moon shone in through the window, and the furniture in the room was coated with a layer of silvery light, as if it knew people's thoughts well.
After a long time, Zhu Minglie sighed slightly and said——
"If I don't come over, you won't come over, right?"
After hearing this, Liusu bowed and said, "Do you have anything to give me, Your Majesty?"
Zhu Minglie stood up and walked towards Liusu step by step. With every step he took, Liusu felt that the feeling of tension and suffocation became stronger.
He walked to Liusu and reached out to lift her chin. Liusu subconsciously looked at her face, but he stopped her from moving.
He looked at her deeply, his eyes lingering on every feature of her body.
Then, he raised his other hand, lowered his head, and slowly moved closer to her, closer...
"Fourth Master..." She reached out and covered her lips.
But Zhu Minglie's hand stayed on her head, and a red hairpin appeared in his generous palm——
"The cherry blossom hairpin on your head is missing. I bought you a butterfly hairpin today." He inserted the lifelike butterfly hairpin on her head with his own hands. Suddenly, it was like a butterfly falling on her head.
on the head.
"It's getting late, you should rest earlier."
To Liusu's surprise, Zhu Minglie just gave her a butterfly hairpin and walked out without saying anything else.
"Fourth Master..." As soon as he stepped out of the room, Luo Nian came up to him.
"how's it going?"
"The flood problem in the south of the Yangtze River has been solved. The prince punished a group of officials and is now on his way back to Yaojing."
"Yes, I understand." Zhu Minglie looked up at the bright moon in the night sky, turned around and looked in the direction of the palace, and said leisurely, "Today is her birthday, Luo Nian, I want to see her, you can do whatever you want.
Let me go."
"Yes." Luo Nian responded.
Every time he talks about her, Fourth Master's heart is always filled with a pain that is too thick to be resolved. That was the beginning of all his nightmare days.
The broken time of his childhood left too many scars in his heart.
The fourth master loves and hates Concubine Jin.
"Your Majesty, why did you bring Lie'er? Why?" Concubine Jin cried and hugged the Fourth Master tightly.
"I just want him to see clearly! I want him to see clearly that his mother and concubine made such a mistake!"
"It's my fault, it's all my fault, I'm sorry for you, but please don't hurt Lieer, he is innocent. Your Majesty, I beg you."
The emperor grabbed the fourth master and threw him in front of Concubine Jin - "Come here! Send Concubine Jin to the cold palace so that mother and son will never see each other again."
"emperor……"
"Jinse, you have broken my heart, and I will never forgive you in this life!" Zhuyue Emperor waved his sleeves and left with great anger!
"Li Dequan, the fourth child will be raised by Queen Xiaode from now on!"
A scene like this appeared in Luo Nian's mind: the eight-year-old Fourth Master was forced into a corner by the Second Master, Third Master, and Sixth Master, who called him a bastard and rode him like a horse.
The emperor passed by and severely rebuked the three arrogant young princes, causing them to scatter like birds and beasts.
"Father..." Zhu Minglie looked at Zhuyue Emperor expectantly and called him.
However, Emperor Zhuyue turned around coldly and left harshly, never to look at Zhu Minglie again.
The fourth master ran to the door of Jinse Palace and shouted:
"Mother, my father ignores me, everyone bullies me, what should I do... It's all you who hurt me, it's all you who hurt me, I hate you, I hate you..." He bent down to pick it up.
The stones on the ground of Qileng Palace were smashed one by one on the gate of Jinse Palace——
The sound of stones knocking on the door resounded in the cold palace, but no one cared about the heart of an eight-year-old child.
From that day on, Zhu Minglie learned to hide all his emotions in the deepest part of his heart, and no one wanted to see any trace of his vulnerability.
He swore that if he wanted to become strong, everyone would obey him. If anyone dared to stop him, he would step on his bones!

The flood problem in the south of the Yangtze River was successfully resolved, and Emperor Zhuyao, who went on patrol incognito, returned to the capital without much stay.
Emperor Zhuyao was dressed in snow-white clothes, sitting firmly in a spacious and luxurious carriage, reading the news from Yaojing. The candlelight illuminated his face, leaving a handsome shadow on the carriage.
The majestic momentum is completely natural. One person sitting quietly can be stronger than thousands of troops.
Lengmei stood aside and polished the ink for him.
"Back then, I was just doing a little work, but you ignored your noble status and disguised yourself as a woman to stay by my side. It's been almost six years since I stayed here." Emperor Zhuyao put down the folder in his hand and asked.
"Your Highness, it has been six years since I returned."
Just as he was talking, he suddenly heard a ethereal singing voice coming from far outside the carriage - "I can't tell you all the worldly love, I can't tell you all the grudges in the world... Who will accompany me in this life? It's so vague and vague..."
The song made Emperor Zhuyao startled for a moment - he asked:
"What are they singing?"
"Back to Your Highness, they sang "Jiangshan Beauty"."
"Beauty of the Country? I have never heard a song with this tune. Who composed the lyrics?"
