Next, because Zhao Xu called him into his room from time to time to practice calligraphy, play chess or teach him how to draw, Chu Lin and Xia Jinyu had less time to chat.

Xia Jinyu felt something, but it was difficult for him to say anything on his territory.

After traveling for a few more days, the boat finally approached the capital pier at dusk.

After staying on the boat for a long time, Chu Lin, who couldn't wait to go ashore, got out of the cabin before the boat stopped.

"Be careful."

Zhao Xu, who came out later, saw him standing on the edge of the boat, and without a word of reminder, walked up to him, and when the boat stopped, he took him ashore together.

After they disembarked side by side, Shen Yi and Xuan San immediately followed, so Xia Jinyu fell behind.

Knowing that the master will arrive today, the steward of Prince An's Mansion waited on the pier with people early, and when he finally saw the figure of the master, he hurried up to meet him.

Taking advantage of the time when the butler brought people over to see the ceremony, Xia Jinyu, who was at the end, took two steps forward and patted Chu Lin on the shoulder.

When Chu Lin turned around, he heard him say, "I'm going first, and I'll come to you after I settle down."

"You don't..." Are we together?It suddenly occurred to him that he must be going to Zhao Xu's house later, as if he was not qualified to invite him to live there, so Chu Lin changed the subject and asked him where he was going to live.

"If you have money, you're afraid that you won't have a place to live." Xia Jinyu said nonchalantly, and then said, "Are you planning to go back to the palace with him? There are many rules in the Gaomen courtyard, so it's definitely uncomfortable to live in. Why don't we buy a courtyard together."

Hearing his words, thinking that there is no reason to live in someone else's house all the time even if they are friends, Chu Lin felt that it is necessary to buy a house of his own.

Seeing him moved, Xia Jinyu was about to persuade her a few more words, when she felt a cold gaze fall on her, and when she looked up, she saw a person who was a step away turned her head.

Although there is no concept of superiority and inferiority, it is of no benefit to offend a prince, so Xia Jinyu didn't say anything to Chu Lin.

"There are no rules in my house, not to mention that you haven't learned your painting well yet, so don't give up halfway." Zhao Xu glanced at the person who wanted to trick the young man to go with him, looked at the young man and said.

"I see." Hearing his words, Chu Lin, who had already learned the basics of landscape painting on the boat, temporarily withdrew his idea of ​​buying a house, and asked him if he could invite Xia Jinyu to go back with him.

Xia Jinyu, who had just hinted at the discomfort of living in the palace, would not slap her face, so before Zhao Xu answered, she smiled and told Chu Lin that she still wanted to buy a house of her own, and would come to him when she was settled. .

Don't do to others what you don't want to do to others, thinking that if you change yourself, you may not want to live in someone's house you don't know well, so Chu Lin didn't force it anymore, and asked if he had enough money on him, and he got an affirmative answer After that, he watched him leave the pier.

"Let's go." After standing with him for a while, Zhao Xu took him into the carriage of the palace.

As soon as the carriage arrived outside Prince An's mansion, someone from the palace invited Zhao Xu into the palace.

After ordering the housekeeper to settle Chu Lin in the yard next door to him, Zhao Xu continued to take the carriage to the palace.

The current emperor is the eldest son, half a round older than Zhao Xu, the emperor's uncle, so he has a close relationship with him. He wanted to meet people as early as when he heard that he had recovered a little, but unfortunately he never returned to Beijing.

Finally, when he got the news of his return, the emperor subconsciously sent someone to summon him. When he realized that he had just returned to Beijing and should let people rest for two days, the person he sent had already left the palace.

People in the palace saw that King An, who used to be so sick that he could only sit on the wheel, was in peace. They didn't show it on the face, but they were very surprised in their hearts.

In the Qianqing Palace, seeing the emperor's uncle walking into the hall by himself, the emperor sitting on the dragon chair shook his head, walked down the steps quickly, and stretched out his hand to stop the person who wanted to salute.

"Okay, okay! It's great to see the emperor's uncle in good health, I believe that the emperor can also feel at ease!"

He looked up and down, and found that there was nothing wrong with him except that his face was still pale. The emperor smiled and said three good times, with a comforting expression.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern." Zhao Xu, who had the privilege of not having to salute as early as the first emperor, just cupped his hands when he saw him stop him.

"It should be thanks to Uncle Huang. If it weren't for Uncle Huang, how could the matter in Lincheng be resolved so well." After the emperor praised him, the smile on his face faded a little when he thought of those bold businessmen who almost caused riots point.

Zhao Xu didn't take credit for it, and bluntly said that what happened to Lincheng was not all his fault.

The emperor, who had seen the excerpt from Lincheng long ago, naturally knew that he had contributed a lot in this natural disaster. A man named Chu Lin saw that the emperor's uncle had performed his merits for him. He came to see you.

Feeling that Chu Lin might not be willing to enter the palace, Zhao Xu rejected the emperor's proposal, and said bluntly that if he wanted to reward him, he would just give him something.

Before his death, the first emperor was worried about this younger brother who had been lingering on the bed in order to protect himself. He repeatedly asked the emperor who had not ascended the throne at that time to take good care of him and keep him rich and safe for the rest of his life. Therefore, the emperor still attached great importance to him. Hearing his words, Just do what he says.

After talking for a while, the emperor ordered the imperial doctor who had been waiting outside to come in and take his pulse.

Several imperial doctors took the pulse and said the same thing as Dr. Sun from Hangzhou City. They also said that if you take good care of it, it will not be a problem to live to the age of forty.

Originally thought that he had fully recovered, the emperor frowned after hearing what the imperial doctor said, "Is there no way to prolong his life?"

"The minister is incompetent, please forgive me, the emperor."

The helpless imperial doctor knelt down and pleaded guilty.

After Zhao Xu persuaded him, he actually knew that it would be good if his body, which had not much time left, could be restored to its current state. The emperor raised his hand and told the imperial doctors to retreat.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, King An."

After the imperial doctor retired, the emperor jokingly said that the imperial doctor in the palace was not as good as the genius doctor outside, and his tone vaguely revealed that he wanted to call that Doctor Sun to Beijing.

In order to cover up for Chu Lin, Zhao Xu said that Dr. Sun cured his body, and at the same time, sent Dr. Sun's family to a safe place.

After leaving him for dinner and asking him to come to the palace more often when he had nothing to do, the emperor asked the chief eunuch beside him to send him out of the palace.

Zhao Xu also brought back a large number of rewards when he left the palace. At the same time, everyone in the capital knew that King An had recovered and returned to the capital.

Back at the mansion, he heard that Chu Lin had fallen asleep in the room, thinking that he must be tired, Zhao Xu didn't let anyone wake him up, but ordered someone to warm the food in the kitchen.

There was not much to eat on the boat at noon. In the middle of the night, Chu Lin really woke up hungry. He opened his eyes and saw the darkness. He thought it must be very late. He was going to sleep, but he was tossed by the screaming stomach Couldn't sleep at all.

"Young master Chu is awake? The prince ordered the kitchen to warm up the food, but do you want the younger one to bring it over?"

Sitting up, I was about to let the system bring out some food, when I saw the lights in the outside room turned on, and then came a low-key inquiry.

In the modern times, when he woke up from hunger in the middle of the night, he basically fell asleep, and only got up to make a bowl of noodles when he couldn't sleep. Chu Lin, who heard that Zhao Xu had someone leave him a meal, hadn't enjoyed such considerate care for a long time. His heart felt as warm as drinking hot milk tea.

In response, Chu Lin got out of bed, put on his clothes, and went to the outside room. After drinking two sips of hot tea, someone brought food over.

Chu Lin, who was full and felt comfortable all over, sat for a while before going to sleep, and his good mood lasted until the next morning.

Chu Lin was already in a good mood. After breakfast, he followed Zhao Xu to see all kinds of gold and silver jewellery, jade carvings, and antique calligraphy and paintings bestowed by the emperor, and then reached the peak directly.

"These are all mine?" Looking at the large and small boxes piled up all over the room, Chu Lin was not sure.

Zhao Xu nodded. Seeing him looking happy, he said, "If you like these, there are still many in the warehouse. You can go and pick them out."

In fact, more than half of these things were rewarded to him by the emperor, but he borrowed flowers to offer Buddha.

"No need, these are enough." Chu Lin, who is content with having so many treasures, waved his hand.

After speaking, Chu Lin opened the boxes one by one, and then took out the contents like a treasure hunt.

"This jade pendant is beautiful!" After taking out a jade pendant from a small box and admiring it for a while, he found that the jade was warm to the touch. Chu Lin turned his head and stroked the jade pendant on his waist twice, then lifted it up and said : "For you."

Nuan Yu was originally prepared by the emperor for him because of his poor health, and now it can be regarded as a complete return to Zhao.

Looking down at the man squatting in front of the box, seeing the really nice Nuanyu in his white palm, Zhao Xu reached out and took it, replacing the one hanging on his waist.

Seeing his movements, Chu Lin raised his lips and said, "Come and see if there is anything else you like, I'll give it to you."

"What if I like them all?" Zhao Xu couldn't help but joked into his slightly bright eyes.

"Then I'll give it to you." Chu Lin was not obsessed with money, and always thought it was enough, and this was a surprise, and it was entrusted to him, so he was very generous.

"You are generous." Seeing that he was really willing to give it all to himself, Zhao Xu felt a little happy.

Chu Lin smiled and beckoned him to come over and watch together.

Zhao Xu, who was not interested in these things, watched the young man waving at him with crooked eyebrows. For some reason, he actually lifted the hem of his clothes and squatted beside him to look together.

"Look at this, does it look good?"

"good."

"what is this?"

Outside the door, Shen Yi could not help but click his tongue twice when he saw that it was the first time that the master who had always received the rewards was sent to the warehouse to enjoy those things in leisure.
