Chapter 115 Saving the Paranoid 7
"Ding——, the progress of the hidden mission is 60%, the mission rewards 3 taels of gold and years of life."
The long-lost system mechanical sound suddenly came online.
Unfortunately, he disappeared again after saying this.
Murong Jing studied very seriously and hard, whether it was schoolwork or martial arts.
Every time Lingyao finished teaching, he would sit on a stool and practice hard. He would also read the books Lingyao brought back for him several times each time.
Half a month passed, and Murong Jing was no longer like before, unwilling to ask Lingyao when he encountered unfamiliar words.
Now when he encounters a word he doesn’t know, he will immediately run to ask Lingyao for help.
But Lingyao lay down most of the time with her eyes closed, but it was unclear whether she was asleep or not.
Murong Jing didn't go up to disturb her.
He sat on the cushion next to her with the book in his hand and read slowly, waiting until Lingyao woke up before asking her.
The boy's long hair was like silk, tied up high with a black headband, and the gold edge of the headband fell down to the back of his head.
His back was straight, and his facial features had not yet fully grown, but one could already glimpse how handsome this face would be in the future.
When the two senior palace maids came in with the meal and saw this scene, they couldn't help but move their hands and feet more gently.
After placing the food, he approached cautiously: "Your Highness, it's time for dinner."
After saying this, he retreated quietly without waking up Lingyao who was lying there.
The main reason was that he didn't dare to do so and could only wait for Murong Jing to call him.
Murong Jing stood up, looked at Lingyao who was lying there, and raised his hand to hold one of Lingyao's fingers.
Her fingers are long and slender, each one as white as jade.
A hint of darkness flashed in Murong Jing's dark eyes, and some uncontrollable secret joy emerged from the bottom of his heart, and he began to play with it.
Lingyao opened her eyes and held the restless hand in hers.
Look at him.
He stood up swiftly and brought the person to the dining table.
Dinner is a very rich and nutritious meal.
Murong Jing is still at the age of growing up, so he needs to keep up with all kinds of nutrition.
The two palace maids who came to serve the food were stunned.
The prince's food, clothing and other expenses are almost the same as the emperor's.
No one knew what method that adult used, but as soon as they arrived, the people in each palace naturally handed the things to them.
Now, everything that sir and His Highness are wearing and holding in their hands are all fine things tributed from the wealthy Yangzhou.
Lingyao’s method is of course gold bars and sticks.
The palace is a place where everyone is greedy for benefits.
Only a fool would not take the gold bars, and those who are too greedy will be beaten to their knees under Lingyao's stick.
As Murong Jing was eating, two more pieces of meat appeared in his bowl.
Lingyao's brows were indifferent: "Eat more and grow taller."
When Murong Jing heard this, he pursed his lips.
The corners of his lips curved into a straight line.
The face, which had gained some flesh recently, looked serious and made people feel itchy.
Lingyao's words caused Murong Jing to secretly measure his height every day when he woke up to see if the mark was higher than the last time.
After more than half a month, two senior palace maids suddenly brought a piece of news.
"The Imperial Concubine is holding a birthday banquet and has invited His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to attend. The Emperor has already agreed."
Lingyao recalled that this was an important plot in Murong Jing's childhood.
The imperial concubine is the biological mother of the seventh prince, so inviting Murong Jing to the banquet is no different from the Hongmen Banquet.
The key point is that with the emperor's order, Murong Jing, the deposed crown prince, had to go even if he didn't want to.
Murong Jing sat in the seat of the crown prince, but he was not treated as the crown prince at all. No one present regarded him as the crown prince.
In order to win the favor of Concubine Wen, he even spoke rudely to Murong Jing.
