When Eunuch Liu saw the man coming towards him, he immediately greeted him with a flattering smile.
The man just waved his hand to tell him to get away and not block the road, and asked by the way: "Where is she?"
Two words, but the person who heard them didn't do anything at all. He thought: "Master Tang is in the room."
Xiao Yinhan walked a little faster when he got the answer, his expression was quite satisfactory, and he seemed to be in a good mood.
Eunuch Liu just thought this, and when he turned around, he was almost surprised by a bitter look on his face.
"What are you doing, what are you doing?"
He swept the dust away and almost made Shunzi who was following behind him cry.
"Father..."
Compared to King Rong who had just left, Shunzi and the guards behind him had grimaces and looked downcast, as if they had just suffered some crime.
Eunuch Liu looked quite surprised: "What's wrong? Have you offended the prince?"
Apart from this, he didn't think of any other reason, but Shunzi shook his head: "We did not offend the prince, but..."
Then Shunzi briefly told his adoptive father what happened in the morning:
It turns out that just yesterday, Duke Yu killed his relatives and took his nephew, a rapist who was young but indifferent, to the government with his own hands.
After insulting a loyal person, it was a capital crime of beheading, so the government sentenced him to death.
I thought that the matter would end like this, but this morning, Duke Yu took off his coat and went to the palace in person to apologize to the emperor. He claimed that he was not strict in running the family and was ashamed of the emperor. Please be kind to the emperor.
After the emperor learned the truth, he gave him a lesson, and then spared Yu Jiamao's death penalty, but changed it to exile.
After Yu Guogong burst into tears, he took sick leave and asked himself to go home to think about his mistakes behind closed doors and rectify the family tradition.
Although Yu Guogong left, the emperor also learned that his precious son actually got involved in other people's family affairs and brought people to find trouble. He immediately invited the prince who was working in the government office to come into the palace and give him a scolding.
Then he was punished and was not allowed to go to court for seven days, and he stayed at home and thought about his mistakes.
Eunuch Liu frowned when he heard this, and then he realized something was wrong: "But the prince doesn't look angry."
Is it possible that he can no longer read Wang Ye?
This thought shocked Eunuch Liu, and he wished he could catch up and take a look.
"Your Majesty will go to court if you don't want to go to court. He just happens to be resting."
Shunzi repeated what Xiao Yinhan said when he left the palace, which made Eunuch Liu's mouth twitch.
There is no need to doubt, this must be the truth, because only their rebellious prince could probably say such treacherous words.
He nodded: "It's good to rest, the prince has suffered a lot these days."
Then he changed the topic and said disgustedly: "Then what's going on with you guys? You look like a coward who wants to die!"
He didn't ask, but when he asked, he almost hugged his thigh and cried: "The emperor blamed the people around the prince for failing to dissuade him and failing to fulfill their responsibilities. So he punished us guards to go guard the city gate and do hard labor for a month.
Foster father, my son can’t bear to leave you!”
Shunzi said that she wanted to go over and hug her adoptive father and cry, but the next moment she was hit hard on the head by the whisk handle in Eunuch Liu's hand: "That's right! I told you not to remind the prince properly!"
Shunzi was a little angry, but more aggrieved: "Does the prince listen to what others say?"
I'm still trying to dissuade you. If you don't run, hurry up and get the thing done, you'll get hurt. If you're done with it, it's better not to give up.
The high probability is that the previous sentence has just been said: "Your Majesty, this is not good, you should not go."
In the next sentence, you will hear the prince sneer: "How dare you teach me how to do things? Come on, drag me down and pull out your tongue!"
After all, the main thing when working around the prince is to be obedient.
Because those who are disobedient will be gone long ago.
Eunuch Liu thought about it and felt that what he said was right, and then knocked him again: "Then you are still stupid! Why are others not so unlucky!"
Shunzi: ...Father, if you keep doing this, I'm going to make trouble!
-
"Creak~" With a sound, the door was rudely pushed open from the outside.
Hearing the sound, Jiang Tang turned around and saw that familiar and slender figure walking towards him.
There is nothing wrong with people, it’s just...
"Your Majesty, won't you go to work today?"
Xiao Yinhan replied shamelessly: "No."
Then his eyes turned and fell on the beautiful soapstone necklace in the girl's arms?
Good-looking, but unfamiliar.
It wasn't from him.
"What's this?"
He said reaching out to take it.
Jiang Tang let him take it away, and said with a sweet smile: "This is a gift from the princess princess, does the prince think it looks good?"
For some reason, Xiao Yinhan felt a little unhappy when he heard the little girl sweetly calling someone "sister".
He paused after taking the box in front of him and threw it back into the empty box aside: "It doesn't look good. If you like this kind of thing, I will ask someone to bring it to you tomorrow for you to choose from."
Jiang Tang could tell the dog man's thoughts at just one glance.
He has always been very domineering, and he hates it when she accepts things from others, even if they are gifts from women.
Jiang Tang would not argue with him, and turned the man's attention with just one sentence: "Actually, this necklace was a gift from the princess princess after I helped her. If the prince likes it, give it to him."
My lord."
As she spoke, she took out the necklace from the box and pretended to put it on the man's neck.
When Xiao Yinhan heard this, he pressed her hand. His slender palm easily took the girl's soft and white hand into his palm. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "What gift in return?"
Jiang Tang looked up at him, blinked his bright and clear eyes, and turned into a complainer without hesitation:
"Actually, it's nothing. It's just that the old nanny next to the princess's sister deliberately bullied people and forced her to wear inappropriate clothes and attend the banquet in the name of the princess's sister's mother."
She pouted her lips as she spoke, showing a dissatisfied expression: "I think she just wants to see the princess princess make a fool of herself."
Sure enough, as soon as Jiang Tang explained the cause and effect of the incident, the man in front of him turned cold.
Even though Xiao Yinhan didn't say anything, she knew that when the weather got cold, some people would die.
-
The silence remains in the Duke's Mansion. Today's banquet is very lively, and the long street outside is full of carriages.
As the master, Shen Yihuan was surrounded by many noble ladies, talking to her warmly and kindly.
But today she was uncharacteristically quiet.
Before her father came back that day, he sent someone to inform her that King Rong was going to cause trouble for her and asked her to go find her second uncle and ask for his protection.
But Shen Yihuan didn't think she had done anything wrong, and she didn't believe Rong Wang was so domineering and refused to go.
However, after two days of stalemate, she gradually began to feel uneasy.
The more reason is that the second uncle who was supposed to attend the banquet did not show up at all.
Even though her father had sent several waves of people to invite him, he still refused to come down, saying that he was only coming back to visit relatives and did not want to interact too much with the powerful people in the capital, and even asked her father to cancel the banquet.
