As the saying goes, you can't escape the first grade of junior high school, but you can't escape the fifteenth grade.
Yu Buhuan had a reason for rejecting the Queen Mother's invitation because she had no time to teach her son.
However, the invitation from His Highness the Third Highness puzzled her.
Not to mention that she and the Third Highness Chu Huaizhen have never met each other. In terms of their positions, the Third Highness has no need to invite her to dinner. Who in the court doesn't know that she is the tutor of the eldest son of the emperor Chu Yan? With the queen, Xiaoyaohou
Are they in a group?
Although the regent Chu Yuan said that neither side would help, Yu Buhuan could see that Chu Yuan was ultimately on Chu Yan's side.
Compared with Chu Huaizhen, the legendary third prince who was truly and talented, his power was a bit weak. He was only supported by some old officials in the court.
Could it be that Chu Huai really wanted to dig a corner and win over her?
Holding the invitation, Yu Buhuan lowered his eyebrows and thought.
It would definitely be inappropriate to go. After all, it was the first time I rejected the Queen Mother. If I accepted the invitation from Her Highness the Third Highness, I am afraid it would cause dissatisfaction from the Queen Mother. Moreover, the royal family has a problem and is very suspicious.
But it wouldn't be right not to go. She has no power in the Chu State, no substantial backing, and she doesn't even know who His Highness is. If she offends him because of this matter, she may have a difficult life in the future.
Should I go or not?
Yu Buhuan buried his face in the invitation.
Chu Yan was studying hard. In order to write a good article that would satisfy the Taifu, he had not returned home for three days.
But there is an advantage to staying here, the queen mother will never come over to harass him.
"Taifu, Taifu, what's wrong with you?"
"Shut up and write your stuff!" Yu Buhuan also has a bad temper when he is upset.
Chu Yan obediently shut up, and after a while, he said: "Master, there is a word that I can't write."
"If you don't know how to write, go check it out. Your Highness, how come you can't write? Why didn't you think about a dish you couldn't eat when you were eating?" He raised his face from the invitation and faced Chu Yan.
After a lot of cursing, he buried it again.
Chu Yan was stunned for a moment after being scolded. She struggled with the bruise on her face, and finally chose to listen to her words and investigate on her own.
When the time agreed on the invitation arrived, two eunuchs came outside the study and asked respectfully: "Is Master Yu here? I have been ordered by His Highness to invite you to the banquet."
Chu Yan raised her head and looked at Yu Buhuan in disbelief.
She is going to attend the third brother's dinner party? I heard that a distinguished guest came to the palace today, and he is a good friend of the third brother.
I originally thought that Chu Huaizhen would hold a banquet, but I didn't expect that his own Taifu would be included in the invitation list.
Chu Yan showed a disappointed expression.
The third child invited an outsider, but he was not willing to invite him.
This scene did not escape Yu Buhuan's eyes. Her observation skills were amazing. This was mainly due to her long-term stay with the old man. The old man was moody and would get angry at no time. She always had to rush to vent her anger before the old man.
Even if the old man was angry at that time, he didn't know how to get angry - because she was already gone.
It was the same now. Chu Yan's sadness and loss made her curious, but suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something.
"Chu Yan."
"Um?"
"You've been having a hard time these days." Yu Buhuan walked slowly to Chu Yan and asked with a gentle expression.
Her gentleness made Chu Yan feel uneasy.
"Tai... Taifu... are you praising me?"
"Yeah, so I'm going to give you a good patch of makeup today."
