"When the ends of the earth are endless, there is only endless love..."

Du Jiu finished reading this poem in his mind and looked at Rong Xia with a subtle expression. This poem... is quite interesting.

Rong Xia has an authentic work by Zhao Bicong in his home, so after opening the painting, he can be sure that it was indeed made by Zhao Bicong, and it is also the legendary last work of Zhao Bicong during his lifetime.

The bright moon in the autumn mountains buries the souls of flowers, and there is no place for lonely lovesickness. This painting not only carries a sense of loneliness, but also a bit of expectation, looking forward to death and seeing his deceased wife. For Zhao Bicong, who was old and frail and returned to his hometown, death was his best destination.

I just don’t know if he still misses his deceased wife or the high-spiritedness of his youth?

"Uncle," Du Jiu reminded him in a low voice when he saw Rong Xia staring at the painting, "This painting was not given by Prince Ban. Could it be that it was given by... the princess?"

The man was unmarried and the woman was unmarried, so they casually gave away such a precious picture scroll, and the verses on the picture scroll were so ambiguous. Could it be that Princess Ban had a romantic relationship with her uncle? Otherwise, who would be willing to give such a big gift?

He somewhat believed that Princess Ban had a very important position in the Ban family. Otherwise, who girl would dare to give such a rare thing to a man who is not related to her?

"It doesn't matter who sent it," Rong Xia put away the scroll and put it back into the tube, "You did a good job before."

"Uncle, I remembered something," Du Jiu suddenly said, "Some time ago, a woman and her children blocked Jingtinghou's carriage. She claimed to be from the same county in Xuezhou, and her husband was arrested. An unjust case was decided."

"Stop Jingting to wait for the car?" Rong Xia put the painting tube into the upper position of Duobao Pavilion and said with a half-smile, "She didn't go to Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment, so why did she stop a Marquis' car?"

Du Jiu shook his head, "I don't know, but Marquis Jingting ignored this person and bluntly said that he had no real power in the court and could not help her."

To be honest, when he heard Marquis Jingting say this, Du Jiu felt that the Ban family's ideas were a little different from ordinary people.

I have no qualms about saying that I have no real power. My son likes to bury gold, silver and jewelry all over the mountains. My daughter gives gifts to men, and they are treasures that even rich people cannot buy. This family explains with practical actions what it means to A very normal **** and prodigal son.

Other families are all handsome, gambling and bullying. Although this family is well-fed and well-dressed, the noble prince is controlled by his wife and has no concubines around him. Although the prince is also idle, he has never been seen. He would molest a peasant girl or show up at a gambling den. He would parade through the market with a few escorts every day, but his job would be to fight crickets and cocks. If he saw those who molested a peasant girl, he would seek justice. The only person he bullied was Erlang Xie. However, The two families have an old grudge, so it doesn't count as bullying or being bullied.

On the surface, it seems that this family is not in good shape and seems not very lovable. However, if you think about it more carefully, you will find that this family is squandering the property accumulated by their ancestors. Although they do not do anything serious, they have never done anything. Having done bad things, compared with someone's family who appears to be a gentleman but has blood on their hands inside, this family has the best character.

But why does everyone think of the Ban family and think of them as lazy and extravagant?

No, their family does seem to be quite lazy and extravagant.

If it weren't for the uncle's association with the Ban family, I'm afraid he would never care about the Ban family, because this family really has nothing to care about. But when he began to pay attention to Qiban's family due to various coincidences, he found that this family was actually not that lovable, and there were even some lovable things about them.

Perhaps this is why my uncle is willing to associate with his family.

"The gift from the Crown Prince is too precious," Rong Xia looked at the sunshine outside the window and said in a good mood, "I should also send some gifts in return."

After hearing that the uncle was about to open the warehouse, the housekeeper of the uncle's house hurried over with several other stewards. They each took out their keys and opened the doors one floor after another.

The Rong family has been prominent for several generations. By the time of Rong Xia's grandfather, the Rong family's reputation in Daye had almost reached its peak. When His Majesty was young, Rong Xia's grandfather was the Crown Prince's Grand Master. Although his grandfather died of illness shortly after His Majesty ascended the throne, His Majesty still respected him as the Imperial Master.

The Rong family's warehouse was filled with property left by the Rong family members from past dynasties. Rong Xia took an ebony box from the shelf, wiped off the dust on it, and punched the lid.

In the box is a set of jewelry made of blood jade, including hairpins, earrings, bracelets, armbands, forehead pendants, and jade pendants. Each one is as red as blood, but has an indescribable sense of beauty.

Some of the ancestors of the Rong family had served as high-ranking officials in the previous dynasty and married the princesses of the previous dynasty, so Rong Xia's lineage, if we look at it in detail, is also the bloodline of the previous dynasty. It's just that when the ancestor married the princess, it was still the heyday of the previous dynasty. When the previous dynasty collapsed, no one from the Rong family was an official in the court. Therefore, even though the new dynasty was established and the Rong family entered the court again, no one ever doubted the Rong family. Loyalty, but felt that the blood of Rong's family was noble.

This set of blood jade jewelry is said to be one of the princess's dowry. Rong's family likes poetry and books, but doesn't like to have fun, so these luxurious things are sealed in the warehouse.

When he was very young, when Rong Xia followed his mother into the warehouse, he felt that this set of jewelry was extremely beautiful, but he had never seen any female family members wearing it. At that time, he had secretly lost it, but he was just afraid of his father's punishment. I dare not say this out loud.

After closing the ebony lid, Rong Xia took an inkstone from the shelf on the other side and carried the box out of the inner warehouse.

In Jingting Hou Mansion, Ban Huai met Yan Ming.

Yan Ming thought that the Ban family would be like the eldest princess, refusing to see him no matter what. But what he didn't expect was that the Ban family not only met him quickly, but also served him hot tea. This was just the most basic courtesy in the past, but for Yan Ming at this moment, he was extremely moved.

"Sir Xiao Yan," Ban Huai sat at the top with a very serious expression, "Excuse me, why are you here today?"

"This junior is here to apologize to your family. My brother and my mother were reckless and brought trouble to your family and the princess. The Yan family is very guilty. However, my father is seriously ill and unable to get up, so I will come to apologize on behalf of my family." Your family apologizes." Yan Ming put down her tea cup, walked to the center of the room, lifted her robe and knelt down on one knee, "The honor of a daughter's family is so precious. My Yan family has acted improperly, so I should apologize to the princess."

A man has gold under his knees. Kneel down to the sky and kneel to your parents. If you kneel down to others, it is tantamount to great humiliation. As the eldest son of the Yan family and the future heir of the Yan family, Yan Ming knelt down in front of Ban Huai, and his posture was as low as dust.

Ban Huai looked at Yan Ming, who was kneeling in front of him, and turned to look at Ban Heng, who was pretending to drink tea seriously.

Ban Heng turned sideways and said nothing. Ban Huai glared at him, then he put down his tea cup and walked to Yan Ming's side.

"Master Yan, there is no need to give such a big gift." Ban Heng has been exercising with Ban Hua recently. Although his body is not much stronger, his strength has increased a bit. Yan Ming, a scholar who has no strength to tie a chicken, has not twisted. He was pulled up from the ground, "If you have something to say, sit down and say it carefully."

Yan Ming has not had a good rest in the past few days. He looks as if he has aged several years and is no longer as elegant as before.

"Please allow me to see the princess and apologize to the princess in person."

Ban Huai said lightly: "I'm afraid... it's not necessary."

"Junior knows that no matter how many apologies you say now, they can't make up for the grievances suffered by the princess. I don't dare to ask the princess to really forgive us." Yan Ming smiled bitterly, "I just want to see the princess. , it is enough for the juniors to tell us our apologies."

Banhua stood outside the door, listening to Yan Ming's tired voice coming from the house, and walked in with her maid.

"Master Xiao Yan, I don't know what to do with this little girl?"

Yan Ming turned around, feeling a little dazed. I saw a stunning woman wearing a blood-colored embroidered red plum skirt and a ruby ​​beaded forehead pendant walking in. Her appearance made all the characters and exquisiteness outside the door become eclipsed.

She was followed by several beautiful maids, who entered the house like stars over the moon. He seemed to be able to smell the faint fragrance of her body.

This is Motuo Incense, a spice paid tribute by the subject countries. Because the quantity is very rare, there are very few female dependents who can be rewarded by His Majesty.

"I've met Princess Fule." Yan Ming bowed to Banhua in a formal manner. The ceremony was extremely standard, and there was no hint of reluctance or perfunctoryness.

"You're welcome, Mr. Xiao Yan." Banhua lowered her eyelids and took the teacup brought by the maid. She held the teacup in her hand stained with danco and only touched her lips briefly before putting it down. Yan Ming saw She pinched a brocade handkerchief in her hand, and then wiped her red and moist lips with the brocade handkerchief.

He looked away and buried his head lower: "I came here today to apologize to the princess."

"Apologise?" Banhua tilted his head, as if he was looking at Yan Ming with a straight eye at this time, "I have said it before, your Yan family and I are sworn in. You don't have to apologize to me, and neither do I. Pay attention to these."

Yan Ming's heart sank, and she bowed deeply to Banhua, "Yan knew that this matter was completely wrong and did not dare to ask for forgiveness from the princess. May the princess be in good health, stay young forever, and be as beautiful as the bright moon in the sky. , be happy and worry-free for the rest of your life."

Banhua chuckled softly when he heard this, and looked at Yan Ming with one hand on his chin: "Master Xiao Yan is so good at talking, but it's a pity that I am a bit strange, and I don't like to hear other people say nice things."

The Yan family is really interesting. What they do is inconsistent. I really don’t know if they are smart or stupid. This Yan Ming is so good at talking, but he doesn't know how to coax his wife Chen. Mrs. Chen was probably extremely sad when her mother-in-law caused a miscarriage, so she made up her mind to divorce this man.

After sharing the same bed for several years, the child she finally conceived was lost. For Ms. Chen, she didn’t know how painful it was.

Banhua was very glad that she was a princess and did not have to marry into the family under the coercion and inducement of the Yan family. A gentle woman like Mrs. Chen can't live a good life in the Yan family, let alone her?

A beautiful woman is charming no matter what she does. Even if her expression is sarcastic and her tone is not gentle, there are not many men in the world who can be truly angry in front of such a beauty.

Of course, there are exceptions for people with mental illnesses like the second prince.

Just as Yan Ming was about to speak, the housekeeper of the Ban family walked in.

"Master Marquis, please be the guard of Anbo Mansion and ask for an audience."
