Mrs. Qiao was still reading angrily.
If it were anyone else, King Zhennan would have had a seizure long ago. However, Mrs. Qiao was the eldest sister, so she could only endure it and said in a good voice: "Sister, according to this king, the imperial concubine is virtuous and sensible. Beautiful woman. Did you and the Crown Princess have some misunderstandings before, which led to the prejudice in your mind? Actually, Sister, I think the Crown Princess was right. The palace is really not short of five hundred taels of silver. Let your niece take this. Use your money to buy beads and flowers to wear."
The King of Zhennan felt that he really understood the righteousness.
Mrs. Qiao was stunned and blinked. She did not expect what King Zhennan said. Wasn't King Zhennan very unhappy with the Crown Princess before? Why does it seem like everything has changed in just a few days? Could it be that King Zhennan personally performed the hairpin ceremony for the Crown Princess not to give face to the eldest princess Yongyang, but to show face to the Crown Princess? !
And the five hundred taels of silver. Of course she knew that the palace was not short of silver, but was she talking about the five hundred taels of silver? He is obviously saying that the Crown Princess has no respect for her elders!
Mrs. Qiao was so angry that her chest was filled with anger, and her mind went blank.
Seeing this, Platycodon grandiflorum took a step forward and reported every opportunity: "Your Majesty, Third Young Master Fu is currently in Bixiaotang. The Crown Princess sent someone over to ask for your instructions. I wonder if Your Highness has time to see Third Young Master Fu? ”
Master Fu?
The King of Zhennan was stunned for a moment, nodded and said: "Go and invite Mr. Fu to come over."
Jiejie responded, bowed her head and retreated quietly, only to hear Mrs. Qiao say slightly excitedly: "Brother, is Master Fu the grandson of Princess Yongyang?"
The King of Zhennan nodded slightly, feeling that the eldest sister's question was not unreasonable, and looked at him with raised eyebrows.
There was a trace of eagerness in Mrs. Qiao's eyes, "Brother, do you know whether Mr. Fu has made a marriage arrangement?"
Of course the eldest sister would not ask about Fu Yunhe's marriage for no reason... King Zhennan stroked his beard and narrowed his eyes slightly at Mrs. Qiao. Could it be that he said, "Sister, do you want to ask Sister Lan..."
Mrs. Qiao has no intention of hiding it from King Zhennan, or in other words, if this marriage is going to happen, King Zhennan will still need his help. She nodded bluntly and narrowed her eyes with a smile: "Brother, my sister Lan has now reached the age of proposing marriage. Isn't this Third Master Fu a good candidate?"
She looked at the so-called wealthy families in southern Xinjiang and found that no one was worthy of her Sister Lan. The Third Young Master Fu is different. He comes from a good family background, has a good family background, is favored by the Holy Spirit, and has military exploits. He is a perfect fit!
The King of Zhennan thought thoughtfully, Fu Yunhe and Qiao Ruolan were of the right age, but the Qiao family’s family was not as good as the eldest princess Yongyang’s mansion... But the eldest princess Yongyang has always been open-minded, if the two children are suitable , she should not refuse.
Seeing that King Zhennan had moved, Mrs. Qiao suggested while the iron was hot: "Brother, when Master Fu comes later, I will hide behind the screen and take a look quietly. What do you think?"
The King of Zhennan was a little hesitant. Fu Yunhe came to see him. Personally speaking, it could be said that the younger generation came to pay respect to the elders; but in terms of business, it could also be said that the subordinates in the army came to see the superior. When the men talked about official matters, the woman hid aside. Eavesdropping is really inappropriate.
Seeing the embarrassment on King Zhennan's face, Mrs. Qiao suddenly became angry again, and her voice rose unconsciously: "Brother, don't you agree to such a trivial matter?!"
His eldest sister is still so bad-tempered... King Zhennan was sweating profusely and reluctantly nodded in agreement: "Eldest sister, you have to be careful..." Don't let anyone find out.
Mrs. Qiao finally showed her face. When someone came to report that Mr. Fu had arrived, she hurriedly picked up her skirt and hid behind the black lacquered ivory screen, waiting with bated breath.
After a while, there was a sound of curtain lifting, followed by the sound of footsteps, and the clear and sunny voice of the young man: "My nephew has seen the prince!"
Mrs. Qiao carefully poked her eyes out, and took advantage of the opportunity when the other party bowed his head to salute and glanced quickly. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she was very happy in her heart: She looked like a talented person, with a jade tree facing the wind, standing with her daughter, she was really a talented man and a beautiful woman. , just like the golden boy and beautiful girl descending to earth. For a moment, Mrs. Qiao had the feeling that her mother-in-law was becoming more and more pleased with her son-in-law, and she really wished she could get married right away.
The King of Zhennan quickly glanced in the direction of the screen. Seeing that Mrs. Qiao was hiding well, he felt relieved. He raised his hand and said, "No courtesy."
The King of Zhennan thought he did it without leaving any trace, but he didn't know that Fu Yunhe, who had been paying attention to him, had already noticed something strange about him. Fu Yunhe curled his lips and smiled, and when he raised his eyes, he also glanced in the direction of the screen.
A dark shadow could be seen faintly behind the hazy screen. Sure enough, someone must be hiding behind it.
"Brother He, please sit down quickly." King Zhennan greeted him affectionately. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it would be great for Fu Yunhe to be his niece and son-in-law.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Fu Yunhe sat down on the armchair by the window unceremoniously.
The King of Zhennan said: "Brother He, how was your trip to Kailian City?"
Fu Yunhe said with a smile: "Back to my lord, after more than a year of recuperation, Kailian City has been completely renewed, and the exiled people have returned to their homeland and live and work in peace and contentment."
"That's very good." King Zhennan smiled and stroked his beard.
Finally, although Xiao Yi, the rebellious son, occupied Kailian City, he didn't act too much and lived up to his usual teachings.
The King of Zhennan said in a very good mood: "Brother He, since you have returned to Luoyue City, I will personally take care of you tonight!"
Fu Yunhe cupped his fists and said, "My nephew, thank you so much, Your Majesty!"
After talking for a while, Fu Yunhe stood up and left. As he walked past the screen, he glanced at the bottom of the screen without leaving a trace. A pair of embroidered shoes with black soles embroidered with peonies came into his eyes. He raised his eyebrows. He raised his head and raised a slight smile at the corner of his mouth.
It turns out that there is still a woman hiding behind the screen.
Fu Yunhe left the outer study as if nothing had happened, and returned to Yunli Courtyard accompanied by Platycodon grandiflorum.
Jiejie actually came here specifically to see Nangong Yue. After she stepped forward to salute Yong Yang and others, she reported to Nangong Yue: "Prince Concubine, the prince plans to hold a reception banquet for Third Young Master Fu tonight, so that the servants can Send a message to the Crown Princess."
Nangong Yue nodded and dismissed the platycodon.
When Platycodon grandiflorum walked away, Fu Yunhe suddenly said meaningfully to everyone: "I just realized today that the prince is really a person who doesn't stick to trivial matters." The corner of his mouth curled up into a smile that was not a smile.
He clearly meant something in his words.
Nangong Yue, Xiao Fei and Fu Yunyan looked at each other, and Fu Yunyan said eagerly: "Third brother, please stop showing off!"
Anyway, there are no outsiders here, so Fu Yunhe said bluntly: "When I went to see the prince in the outer study just now, I found a woman hidden behind a screen in the study."
"Absurd." Yongyang frowned tightly. She originally thought that King Zhennan was a little confused, but she didn't expect that he was actually a person who was addicted to women and didn't know the importance of things. There is actually a woman hiding in the study outside. It really doesn’t distinguish between public and private affairs...
Nangong Yue pondered for a moment, feeling a little strange in her heart, and whispered an order to Huamei beside her.
Huamei left quickly and came back quickly. In less than a stick of incense, she came back and reported: "Your Majesty, my aunt came to the palace today to ask for an audience with the prince. She has gone back just now." The eldest aunt in her mouth said. It was Mrs. Qiao.
For a moment, everyone in the room looked at each other again. From this point of view, the woman behind the screen is Mrs. Qiao, but why does Mrs. Qiao hide behind the screen?
Nangong Yue’s eyes flashed, thoughtfully, could it be...
"Is this Mrs. Qiao attracted to the third brother?" Fu Yunyan blurted out, and everyone looked at her, and then involuntarily looked at Fu Yunhe.
Yongyang was drinking tea leisurely on the side. With the Qiao family's family background, getting married in their princess mansion was definitely a high achievement. As the saying goes, "lower your head to marry a wife," she didn't care if Fu Yunhe married someone with a lower family background. , but first of all, the character of the girl’s family must be considered, otherwise marrying a family troublemaker will really harm the children and grandchildren for three generations. Thinking of Qiao Ruolan's words and deeds at the hairpin ceremony that day, Yongyang's eyes darkened slightly.
Fu Yunhe raised his brows, a little surprised. He blinked and asked with a smile: "Liu Niang, you have been in Luoyue City for so long, you should have seen the girl from Mrs. Qiao's family, right? How does she look? Is she pretty?"
Fu Yunyan stared back speechlessly, "Can beauty be used as food?"
Fu Yunyan's short sentence seemed to miss the point at all, but Fu Yunhe got two meanings from it. First, Miss Qiao was pretty good-looking; second, her character seemed to remain to be seen.
Fu Yunhe sighed, it turned out to be a rotten peach blossom. His depression was only for a moment. After a second thought, he proudly puffed up his chest, touched his face with a smile and sighed: "Hey, like me He is handsome, outstanding, and loved by everyone, no wonder he is remembered wherever he goes!"
Seeing his third brother's dishonest look, Fu Yunyan's eyes twitched and he consoled himself: No matter how unreliable he is, he is still his own brother. How can someone like Qiao Ruolan deserve to be his sister-in-law!
Nangong Yue and Xiao Fei looked at each other and smiled. The atmosphere in the hall was relaxed and cheerful, as if they were back in the capital, where a group of close relatives and friends were laughing and talking funny together.
Nangong Yue couldn't help but glance at the sky outside, wondering how Sister Yi and Sister Xi were doing now.
Nangong Yue and Xiao Fei chatted with Yong Yang again, and then left first. There was a reception banquet for Fu Yunhe in the evening, and Nangong Yue still had many things to do, so Xiao Fei volunteered to help her.
This reception banquet was held in the Nongyu Hall of the palace. Except for Xiao Fang who was banned, basically all the masters of the palace came. One table for men, two tables for women, and three tables were set up. Although there were not many people, Fu Yunhe was cheerful and talkative, and the Fengfeng Banquet was also very lively, causing the King of Zhennan to laugh from time to time...
Finally, Fu Yunhe temporarily stayed in the palace at the warm invitation of King Zhennan.
Nangong Yue hurriedly asked people to clean up a more remote courtyard for him in the outer courtyard.
Wang Zhennan was very satisfied and thought to himself: The palace really still needs a mistress!
The banquet did not disperse until the moonlight was above the willow branches.
Nangong Yue returned to Bixiao Hall. After taking a bath and changing clothes, she took out an account book from the study, then leaned on the beauty's couch and slowly read through it.
This account book was brought back by Baihui in the evening. Shen Chengye made the account book of Tianshui Village for the third year of the Ming Dynasty according to his instructions.
Nangong Yue carefully turned over one by one. Next to each account, Shen Chengye also made some comments based on the local county annals. These comments were obviously made specifically for himself to see, and were very clear and concise. Nangong Yue can be sure that this account is much more beautiful than Xiao Fang's.
Even if it is a "false account", it must be done flawlessly. If the flaw can be seen at a glance, it will not be beautiful.
After reading the account book, Nangong Yue yawned. Que'er, who was waiting in the room, quickly brought a glass of water and said helplessly: "Prince Princess, it's time for you to rest."
"What time is it?"
“It’s almost the fifth update.”
Nangong Yue glanced out the window, it was almost summer, the sun was getting earlier and earlier, and there was already a hazy white light on the horizon...
……
……
It was just dawn in the royal capital at the fifth watch, but there was already a commotion. Not only the traffickers and footmen were busy making a living, but also the princes and ministers were already waiting in the duty room to go to the morning court.
The ministers are all a little sleepy-eyed. According to Dayu's rules, only officials of third rank or above are eligible to attend the morning court. The ministers here are naturally the top figures among the noble ministers, and everyone envies them. But those ordinary people don't know that they have to get up at the end of the fourth watch every day just to go to court at midnight. Except for the Chinese New Year and taking a break every ten days, this happens every day without exception.
The civil and military officials go to court together in the same palace every day, and they are naturally very familiar with each other, but in the huge duty room, they are clearly divided. Civil servants and military officers, from poor families... were divided into several camps and did not interact with each other.
The officials were casually chatting with the people around them about the recent court affairs and drinking hot tea to refresh themselves. At this time, another figure in an azure court dress strolled into the duty room.
I saw that the other party was in his early twenties, handsome and elegant, leisurely and calm, like a gentle scholar who had no power to tie a chicken, but he put on the court uniform of a military minister. The contradiction seemed abrupt, but to the people present, it was Of course.
Everyone knows that he is the queen of generals.
The official words of An Yihou are white!
For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on him, and the room was silent, as if time had stopped at this moment.
Although everyone remained calm, their hearts were filled with turmoil, and they couldn't believe that Guan Yubai would actually appear here.
In order to make up for the embezzlement of all the officials, the emperor made Guan Yubai a second-class military prince. He was hereditary for three generations. It seemed like an honor, but this An Yihou was just a false title. He had no military power and no real power. It was just that the emperor had to give an explanation to the courtiers and the people because of the unjust case that year.
It has only been more than three years now. In just a few short years, Guan Yubai has actually appeared here. This also means that the Guan family has entered the core of Dayu's power again.
Over the years, the emperor has paid more and more attention to Guan Yubai, and he has called him into the palace from time to time to ask him for his opinions on court affairs... All the ministers have noticed every bit of this. Now that he thinks about it carefully, There is a feeling that is both unexpected and reasonable.
Unconsciously, the emperor's trust in Guan Yubai reached this point!
In just a blink of an eye, all the ministers' minds were already changing, and those with flexible minds quickly weighed the pros and cons and decided to have a good relationship with Guan Yubai in the future. A middle-aged official with a goatee put down the tea cup in his hand and was about to greet Guan Yubai when he heard the slightly shrill voice of the little **** outside the duty room: "The eldest prince has arrived!"
Before he finished speaking, a young man in a golden python robe strode into the check-in room. All the ministers stood up and saluted, saying in unison: "See you, Your Highness, the eldest prince!"
The eldest prince Han Lingchao looked around at the ministers, waved his hands with a smile and said: "Everyone, excuse me!" Then, his eyes fell on Guan Yubai, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then there was a burst of glances. Flashing.
Like all the ministers, Han Lingchao was also aware of Guan Yubai's position in the emperor's mind. Especially considering the fact that the official family was exterminated, it became even more obvious that this honor was not simple.
Whether Guan Yubai is as resourceful and resourceful as the rumors say, Han Lingchao doesn't care for the time being. Now that Guan Yubai is so favored by his father, as long as he can pull him to his side, he will definitely be even more powerful!
Han Lingchao made a decision in his heart and walked a few steps forward to Guan Yubai, pretending to be familiar and greeting him: "It turns out to be Lord Guan."
"Your Highness." Guan Yubai bowed again, his attitude gentle, but also revealing a touch of alienation.
Han Lingchao didn't care about Guan Yubai's coldness and said with a smile: "My father has always told me that Lord Guan is very knowledgeable and often has unique insights into people and things. Lord Guan, why not talk to me about it?" How about chatting by the window for a while!"
The direction Han Lingchao pointed to was where he usually sat.
The emperor has a legitimate son, and the Spring and Autumn Period is at its peak. Although he has not yet established a prince, the courtiers still have a wait-and-see attitude. Except for a few who are related by marriage or want to speculate on the merits of Conglong, most of them have not yet taken sides. Guan Yubai came to check in for the first time today. If he sat next to the eldest prince, he might be regarded as wanting to surrender to the eldest prince.
All the ministers also heard that Han Lingchao was trying to catch up. Some avoided looking, not wanting to offend the eldest prince for this matter; some were hesitant about whether to help to show their good will. The language is white.
Guan Yubai smiled lightly, gentle and elegant, but without the slightest hint of embarrassment.
"Master Guanhou!" A deep male voice suddenly came from the direction of the door, "Master Guanhou is also coming to the morning court today?"
This sentence caused other officials to have different expressions. Some were secretly annoyed that they were a step too late, some were mocking the man for being stupid, and some were planning to wait and see... When everyone followed the sound, they found that the owner of the voice was actually the person who had just spoken. After walking into Nangong Qin who was on duty, the surroundings were quiet again.
Nangong Qin is known to be upright and stern. He never forms cliques for personal gain, nor is he a nepotist.
Seeing the look of respect in Nangong Qin Wang's eyes towards Guan Yubai, the ministers probably understood that Nangong Qin's behavior was probably out of respect for the heroes of the official family.
"Lord Nangong!" Guan Yubai looked at Nangong Qin with a smile.
Han Lingchao narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Nangong Qin, Cheng Yaojin, feeling unhappy but not daring to show up.
At this moment, the little **** sang the report again: "His Royal Highness the Second Prince has arrived!"
In an instant, all eyes turned to the door again. The second prince, Han Lingguan, walked in leisurely with a smile on his lips.
The ministers bowed and saluted again. Han Ling's eyes lit up when he saw Guan Yubai. Then his eyes swept over Han Lingchao, Guan Yubai and Nangong Qin. He keenly felt that the atmosphere was a little weird, but he didn't. What to say, he just smiled and hugged Han Lingchao: "Brother Emperor."
But Han Lingchao had no expression on his face and shouted with a smile: "Second Emperor's Brother!"
Han Lingguan was too lazy to deal with this elder brother, so he looked at Guan Yubai and said with a smile: "Master Guan Yubai, I have heard for a long time that the Marquis is an extraordinary chess player. I recently got a pair of chess players from the previous dynasty." Bai Yao Xuan Jade Chess, I wonder when I will be lucky enough to play a game with the Marquis?"
It is said in "Weiqi Fu": "The piece is Bai Yao Xuan Jade." Bai Yao Xuan Jade is the top grade among chess pieces, and many chess enthusiasts dream of collecting one.
Guan Yubai had a faint smile on his lips and said, "If there is a chance, I would like to consult with His Highness."
Han Lingguan said with a very good attitude: "The Lord Marquis is willing to teach me, I am really honored."
Han Lingchao's face turned gloomy when he heard this. He stared at Han Lingguan and gritted his teeth, thinking: What kind of game? ! The second emperor brother wants to please Guan Yubai with this Bai Yao Xuan Jade chess set!
The veins on Han Lingchao's forehead jumped, and all of a sudden, old and new grudges arose.
