After supporting Fu Yi to the bluestone road, Sui Tingheng calmly let go of her arm and bowed to Princess Kangyang: "Aunt Kangyang."
Princess Kangyang avoided his salute and looked at her. He and Yun Fuyi swept around, and finally said to Fuyi, "Why is Miss Yun here?"
“Back to the princess, I have something to come to the palace to ask to see the queen.” Seeing that Princess Kangyang’s eyes are not eyes and her nose is not nose, Fuyi nodded in his heart, right, this is what Princess Kangyang sees. His normal behavior when he was in love with her. Last time he smiled so enthusiastically at her that it made her feel uncomfortable all over.
Princess Kangyang ridiculed: "Miss Yun is really hard-working, you can be found everywhere."
"Thank you for the compliment, Princess." Fuyi said with a smile: "I share your Majesty's worries, I am a minister. His duty cannot be said to be diligent. ”
Princess Kangyang was so choked that she couldn't speak. She turned around and rolled her eyes. Thinking that the Yun family had rejected the Liu family's marriage proposal anyway, she suddenly lost her scruples and said with a straight face: "There are no rules, you are a little kid." How come you, the daughter of a foreign minister, don’t understand the etiquette of respect and inferiority? I asked you, who made you laugh..."
"Auntie," Sui Tingheng said lightly: "Flick your clothes in Sheji. For meritorious service, the emperor has made her the princess. What's more, the emperor regards Miss Yun as his nephew, and Gu Ye regards her as a member of the family, so there is no need to abide by external etiquette."
" Ruodu. If you act according to the rules, do you still want your great-aunt to salute you? "
The prince is a semi-king, and according to the etiquette of monarchs and ministers, everyone except the emperor and the queen should salute him.
Kang Yang remembered that the prince had just given him a junior salute, and the princess's airs collapsed instantly, and a smile instantly appeared on his face: "His Royal Highness the prince treats our clan very kindly, and he is ours." Blessings. I was a little too anxious just now, so please..."
She looked at Fu Yi, and the smile on her face was not forced at all: "Miss Yun, please forgive me."
"The princess' words are serious, but I dare not."
Princess Kangyang is still the same as before. Able to bend and stretch.
As a royal princess, Kang Yang knows how not to offend those in power. When the late emperor was here, she always supported the late emperor and Prince Ning. Now that the new emperor is on the throne, she naturally does not dare to offend the prince.
The prince is indeed gentle and polite towards others, but she is not stupid enough to think that being gentle means being easy to bully.
She knew very well in her heart that from being suppressed and disliked by the late emperor to now firmly holding the ninth and fifth positions, the Li Wang family could not rely on gentleness and courtesy.
"It's strange that I lost my etiquette and angered Miss Yun for the marriage of the younger generation of the Liu family." Kang Yang glanced at the prince, and the smile on his face became gentler: "My fair lady and gentleman are so jealous, but Zihe failed. move Miss Yun, it’s his problem, I shouldn’t be angry.”
One sentence about marriage, the other sentence about a gentleman, Kang Yang just didn’t yell at the prince directly, it’s inappropriate, you and this dandy are not the same. suitable!
"My daughter is in no mood for love and has never thought about getting married. Liu Langjun is handsome and handsome, and he will definitely find the woman he likes to be with him." Fu Yi knew Kang Yang's personality and had no plans. Arguing with this old lady: "Your Highness, just don't blame me."
How can you not be in the mood to love?
Kang Yang's mood was extremely complicated. She didn't want the prince to be with this dandy, but when she heard her saying that she was not in the mood for love, she felt awkward.
The prince is both civil and military, handsome and elegant, and has a distinguished status. Such a lively and handsome man comes to you, and you actually say that you are not in the mood for love?
You are really young and don’t know...
“Ahem.” Kang Yang said seriously: “These are all small things. I don’t understand the things in the court, but you can establish the rule of the country. It must be a huge contribution.”
The emperor’s nephew, who is so stingy, is actually willing to give Yun Fuyi the position of princess, which shows that her contribution must not be small.
Yun Fuyi has done meritorious service for the royal family, and she is also a member of the royal family. Rounding it off means that Yun Fuyi is doing things for her. Thinking about it this way, she found Yun Fuyi reluctant to accept him.
"My daughter has only made a small contribution, and it is all because of your majesty's kindness."
When Princess Kangyang saw that Fuyi had given her the opportunity to step down, instead of taking the opportunity to embarrass herself, she decided that in the future As long as Yun Fuyi doesn't bully her great grandson, she won't cuckold her behind her back.
"His Royal Highness the Prince and Miss Yun are here to enjoy the scenery?" Kang Yang looked at the rockeries around him. There was nothing to enjoy here.
"Just now, my father took Gu Gu and Fu Yi for a walk in the garden. My father had important matters to deal with, so he returned to the imperial study first." Sui Tingheng asked Princess Kangyang: "I don't know why my aunt came in today. Palace?”
"It's nothing serious. I just went to the palace to talk to the empress for a while." After hearing that the prince and Yun Fuyi were not going out alone, but walking with the emperor, Kang Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief. It was fine that the two of them had no affair.
The ancestors of the Sui family were occasionally useful, at least they did not let a playboy become the crown prince of the Long Dynasty.
"Auntie, please feel free to do so. I won't disturb you anymore." Sui Tingheng made a gesture of invitation, turned around and took Yun Fuyi away from the side path.
Kang Yang touched the thing in his sleeve and hurried to Zhaoyang Palace. When he saw the queen, he took out the thing in his sleeve: "Queen, look at these."
< br>This is a thick stack of drawing paper.
"Aunt, what is this?" The queen opened the drawing paper, which was full of portraits of young women.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a distinguished status, and marriage is a big event." Kang Yang patted the stack of drawing papers proudly: "These are all portraits of noble ladies in the capital. I have seen each girl with my own eyes. They are absolutely You can’t fake it.”
The queen laughed dumbly. No wonder the Princess Kangyang Mansion has held banquets frequently in the past two months. It turned out to be just for this matter. She opened the drawing paper and looked carefully. It contained detailed records of the woman's age, family background, and temperament.
They are all good girls with both good character and academic skills and many talents. After reading this stack of drawing papers, the queen knew that Princess Kangyang really put her heart into it.
"The prince is good at literature and martial arts, and his appearance is better than Pan An. You must be careful when choosing the prince concubine." Kang Yang thought of the scene he just saw in the imperial garden again. After thinking about it again and again, he still couldn't help it: " His Royal Highness has a good relationship with the girl from Yun Shangshu’s family?”
"Heng'er is always a considerate child. She knows that I like Fu Yi, so she takes good care of her." The queen asked the maid to put away all the portraits, and asked with a smile: "Has aunt just seen them?"
It turns out that there is still affection for the queen.
Kang Yang was completely relieved. She just said, how could a talented young man like his grandnephew like Yun Fuyi, a showy and trouble-making playboy.
She subconsciously forgot about Liu Zihe.
"When I was passing by the Imperial Garden, I saw His Highness the Crown Prince holding Miss Yun's wrist down the steps." Kang Yang saw that there was no strange color on the Queen's face, so he continued: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a considerate person, and I don't know Which girl is so lucky that she can play the piano and harp in harmony with His Highness? ”
The queen smiled and did not say which girl she was satisfied with: "As elders, it's really hard for us to guess the minds of young people."
Who says it's not the case?
It was as if she never expected that the person Liu Zihe wanted to marry after being admitted to the top prize was Yun Fuyi. Sui Tingheng took Fuyi to Chenxi Palace. He had moved into Chenxi Palace a few days ago, and there were many more guards and palace attendants inside and outside.
The afternoon sun was a bit dazzling, and the two of them went to sit in the bamboo forest in the backyard. Hearing the sound of the bamboo forest, Fuyi closed his eyes comfortably: "This bamboo forest in Your Highness's palace is really a good place."
The sun was shining brightly in May, and the dappled sunlight passed through the gaps in the bamboo leaves and sprinkled on the white jade table where they sat. Fuyi stretched out his hand to catch these light spots and tilted his head to look at Sui Tingheng: "Are these stars during the day?"
Sui Tingheng smiled and nodded: "Yes."
Bamboo Forest Quiet and peaceful, Fuyi gradually recovered from all the things that happened today. She stared at the prince Jianmeixingmu for a moment and then looked away: "His Royal Highness's Chenxi Palace should be very lively. "Comfortable."
"If you like, you can come here often." Sui Tingheng lifted the corner of his robe and poured tea for Fuyi: "I have no brothers or sisters, and other people of the same age in the clan are not close to me. There are almost no other visitors from the teachers and ministers in the East Palace arranged by my father."
His eyes were lowered, looking a little lonely and melancholy.
"If His Highness doesn't dislike my daughter, I really want to come and bother His Highness often." Fu Yi secretly covered her chest. Even if she was hard-hearted, she still had to soften her heart when she saw this situation.
The light spots smeared on Fuyi's body, as if the stars in the sky couldn't wait to fall into her arms.
"If you come, I will sweep the bed to welcome you." Sui Tingheng looked at the light spots on the corners of his skirt: "You can do it at any time."
"That minister, sir Thank you, Your Highness." Fuyi took a sip from the tea cup and changed the topic: "Your Highness, the day after tomorrow is your canonization ceremony, I have nothing to give to Your Highness, so I will just give you this. Congratulations to His Highness."
She took out a small bag of tips from her sleeves and handed it to Sui Tingheng: "My daughter was arrogant and ignorant when she was young. She often received rewards from the late emperor, but she didn't know the world. Suffering. Later, my father was demoted and many precious items were taken back by the palace, but I don’t think he cares about those things.”
Sui Tingheng took the brocade bag and carefully poured out the contents, which were a wooden sword the size of a finger and a round jade bead tied with a red rope.
"The wooden sword is a small object carved by my daughter out of peach wood. The jade bead is polished from the jade I saw on the riverbank in Chongzhou. The jade material is very ordinary." Fuyi felt a little embarrassed. He smiled softly: "My servant is not good at female beauty, and I don't have as many precious jewels as your Highness. I can only give you some trinkets to entertain Your Highness."
There is a simple cloud pattern relief on the jade beads, and the carving skills are exquisite. Not very good.
"These are all carved by my daughter." Fu Yi was worried that the prince would misunderstand that she gave him an object with poor carving skills, so he explained: "The year before last, my daughter was reunited with her family, and her family locked her up in a Recuperating at home, my daughter was bored at home all day, so she carved some small things. "
She was embarrassed to say that this was the best jade bead she had ever carved.
"It's very beautiful." Sui Tingheng tied the jade beads around his waist. The jade beads hooked on the red rope were dangling around his waist, and Fu Yi's eyes wandered.
The prince's waist... is lean and strong, and quite good-looking.
"Fuyi is really versatile, he can even jade carving." Sui Tingheng put the mahogany sword into his arms: "But there is one thing you said wrong."
"What is it?"
“You are not arrogant And people who don't understand the sufferings of the world." Sui Tingheng looked at her and said, "When the late emperor was here, you helped the people who were bullied many times in the palace. When the late emperor was angry, you used your clever words to help the courtiers to plead for mercy. How many people are kind to you?”
"That's just something I did casually..." Fuyi touched his nose awkwardly, but he didn't expect that the prince actually knew these old things. When she was a child, relying on the late emperor's connivance, she had indeed pretended to be clever and helped many officials who were about to be dragged down to be beheaded.
It is a pity that as the late emperor took more and more pills, his mind became more and more confused. In addition, Zeng Guifei had opinions about her and often targeted her secretly. She was unable to change the late emperor's decision.
In the end, even she couldn't save herself.
She has never mentioned these things to outsiders. Even Prince Ning, who often plays with her, doesn't know about it. I wonder where the prince found out?
“There are no secrets in the palace.” Sui Tingheng smiled: “As long as you want to know, there is nothing that cannot be found out.”
He looked at the bamboo forest behind Fuyi, his eyes were deep and seemed to contain thousands of emotions, but when Fuyi looked up at him, there was nothing but a gentle smile.
"Then, Your Highness, would you like to check on the man whom I captured today?" Fu Yi said: "My servant always feels that his identity is not simple, and he may be involved with Prince Ning."
“My maid has observed this man and his living habits I'm used to it..."
"Okay." Sui Tingheng said: "I will find out the relationship between him and Prince Ning. If Prince Ning makes any changes, I will never give him mercy."
Fu Yi is at a loss. I haven’t finished what I’ve prepared. Why did you agree so easily?
Seeing Fuyi looking at him blankly, Sui Tingheng raised his head and took a sip of tea. The tea was a little bitter: "Besides him, who else should I investigate?"
"And the origins of those three beauties. Fu Yi said: "It is not easy to cultivate such beauties. The clothes and jewelry they wear, as well as the places they pass through, They will leave traces."
"Okay." Sui Tingheng touched the jade beads on his waist: "Don't worry, I will let people find out their identities as soon as possible."< br>
