11, comfort

The seventh prince has always been with the second brother, the king of Qi, who came to congratulate him. The king of Qi is the biological son of the virtuous concubine. Naturally, he is the closest to the seventh prince. Since the seventh brother was sent to his mother, he likes this brother very much. He holds his little brother every day. When the younger brother grows up, he still takes him around the palace. In his eyes, this seventh brother is his own brother. Since he was crowned queen, he has moved out of the harem and spent much less time with his brother. I am very happy to see him at this moment.

After the wedding banquet, the seventh prince took the carriage of the king of Qi and left, and the king of Qi sent him back to the palace.

On the way, the king of Qi looked at the thoughtful look of the seventh prince and asked, "Seventh brother, what's wrong? What's on your mind?"

The seventh prince forced a smile and said, "Today, the prince seems to have gone too far. He actually said that in front of Prince Qian."

"Speaking of this, I'm also curious." The king of Qi laughed and said, "What does this Qinrou Junjun look like? The prince actually made such cruel words, as if he was afraid that people would take it away."

"It's an extremely surprising beauty." The seventh prince sighed, "Although she is not yet old enough to get married, her beauty is destined to make her marriage unusual, which may set off a storm."

"Oh?" The prince's curiosity was lifted and he said, "As far as I know, this Qinrou Junjun is only twelve years old, and he is a very good match for you. Well, are you interested in fighting for it?

The seventh prince shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Although I am the prince, no one is powerless in the court. It is impossible to be compared with others. A birth like me is not extravagant at all."

"Don't underestimate yourself. You are the prince." The king of Qi patted his brother on the shoulder and said, "Besides, don't you still have me? Yours is yours. You can be your most powerful supporter."

"This Qinrou Junjun, among other things, the benefits of marrying her alone are enough to make people fight. I really don't want to fight with them, especially the prince." The seventh prince sighed again, "I appreciate my brother's kindness, but I believe in fate more. If I am predestined with her, there will naturally be results, but if there is no fate, it will only increase my troubles. Moreover, my father obviously had his own opinion on the marriage of Qinrou Junjun. Four months ago, the fifth brother annoyed my father because he wanted to ask the emperor to marry Qinrou Junjun to him. In a few hours, he gave him the current wife.

"I also heard about this, so I was very happy to see Lao Wu's stinky face at the wedding." The king of Qi laughed and said, "This old man usually farts very much. Relying on the power of his mother's family, he looks at people with his nostrils every day. It's been enough for me to be happy to see him cry this time.

He took his brother's hand and said, "Seventh brother, I believe you, among us brothers, you are the best. Whether it is appearance, talent, talent or ability, you are second to none. You don't have to feel inferior or flinch. As long as you want, try your best to fight for it. No matter what the result is, as long as you have worked hard, You won't regret it. How can you get it if you don't even work hard? Besides, in this matter, I think you are the most winning. Your age and talent are the best match. Go ahead, brother supports you. In order not to regret it in the future, try your best to fight for it.

The seventh prince was moved and clenched his brother's hand.

"Brother, I don't know why, Princess Qinrou gives me a very special feeling, as if I have known her for a long time, but I have lost her for a long time. Every time I see her, I have a feeling that I want to cherish it. By her side, I wanted to hold her crazily. This inner impulse made me control it very hard. Even if she was in front of me, I didn't dare to look at her. The seventh prince sighed and said, "Maybe other people want to take her for themselves when they see her, but I just want to take good care of her. It's enough not to make her sad again."

"Silly brother, a woman can only take the best care of her by marrying her. Since you have this idea, you have to work harder. It's rare for you to want her to be pushed into the fire and wash her face with tears every day." The king of Qi rubbed his brother's hair fiercely with his other hand and rubbed his neat bun into a bird's nest.

"Listen to my brother and work hard. If you don't do anything, you will give up. I won't forgive you." Delivered to the gate of the palace, the king of Qi kicked his brother out of the carriage and said viciously.

What the prince did in the Qianwang Mansion was soon known by the emperor.

After the next morning, the prince was called to the side hall by the emperor and scolded him. Finally, he warned the prince that if he still dared to hit Qinrou Junjun, he would immediately abolish his position as the prince and scared the prince to kneel on the ground and kowtow like garlic.

And the seventh prince became a regular guest of Qianwangfu because of Wei Qike, so he often met Yuanjia. He catered to Yuanjia's preferences. As his prince, he got some good tea from all over the country in the palace, and designed the style himself. He customized a few sets of tea sets for her. Although he still couldn't avoid the desire to meet, his self-control became stronger and stronger in the meetings.

In addition to tea art, Cheng Yuanjia is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. The seventh prince is not as talented as her. He is not very good at piano, but Xiao plays well and occasionally plays with her piano and flute. Chess is the only thing he can handle, which makes Cheng Yuanjia very surprised. The two of them are enemies of chess and often kill them in the dark. Several times, because they missed the time when the palace door was closed, they had to let the seventh prince stay in the Qianwang Mansion. As for the book, this made the seventh prince very ashamed. Although he is proficient in hundreds of families, his handwriting is really not enough to read, and he dares not make a fool of himself in front of Cheng Yuanjia. For this reason, he secretly practiced calligraphy diligently and made rapid progress. As for painting, he can barely draw, but his level of painting is comparable to that of tea tasting, and he can't do it. Because the seventh prince and Cheng Yuanjia get along very well with each other, especially when playing chess, they are even more selfless. For this reason, Wei Qike, who acts as the background, complains a lot every time, but he has always been careless in class and he has no room to interrupt at all.

Prince Qian did not stop the relationship between the seventh prince and Yuanjia, but others were not so lucky. Although the prince did not dare to make a second place, he still secretly sent people to warn Prince Qian and Cheng Yuhang that he would never give Qinrou Junjun to him, otherwise he would not give up.

Prince Qian's mansion ignored the prince's warning, while Cheng Yuhang complained in front of the empress dowager. As a result, the prince was called to be reprimanded by the empress dowager this time, came back to accept the emperor's reprocessing, and finally was imprisoned in the East Palace for a month as punishment.

As for other people who make marriage requests on both sides, they are regarded as flies on both sides, and they are thrown out at once.

Cheng Yuanjia adheres to the fine tradition of not leaving the door. In addition to entering the palace to accompany the empress dowager and occasionally returning to Cheng's home, she can't find her own small yard and lives an almost isolated life. The visiting guests are generally the seventh prince and Wei Qike, as well as the cousins of similar ages in Prince Qian's Palace. In particular, Wei Min'er, the two have become close friends.

Two years have passed like this. Although the seventh prince and Cheng Yuanjia have not developed to the point expected by the king of Qi, in general, they can get along well in a good way. When there was no one around, Cheng Yuanjia couldn't help asking the seventh prince to hug her, but every time she was affectionate and courteous, and there was nothing out of line. The seventh prince never talked about this matter. When Cheng Yuanjia asked for it, he gently hugged her for a while. This matter has become a small secret between the two, because both of them are eager to hug each other, and sticking to this secret will not reveal a little bit.

When Qiu Gao was in high spirits, a message came from the palace that the emperor was going to take all the princes and princesses and the princes and grandchildren to go hunting in the forest paddock. The Shanglin paddock is located on the edge of the forest 200 miles north of the capital. It has been a special hunting ground for the royal family for all generations. Every year, the emperor brings several princes to the paddock to hunt. This time, because it coincides with the 20th anniversary of the emperor's accession to the throne, he is ready to celebrate it.

The princes have been qualified to hunt since they turned 14 years old, so the seventh prince went there once last year. It is said that the results are quite good, and this is the second time.

According to the ancestral system, this kind of hunting prince does not need to participate, and he is also responsible for the supervision of the country during the period when the emperor left the capital. However, this prince really does not have this ability, so the matter of the supervision falls on the eldest prince, the king of Wu, who has just returned to Beijing, and six Shangshu. As for the prince, he was still taken to hunt by the emperor.
