Chunxiao, who was standing behind He Linwan, couldn't help but be in awe when she looked at Li Yu, her family was not afraid of everything, the wise and martial girl was so obedient and spoiled by this prince, she must serve her well in the future as the first maid in front of the girl.

Li Yu has not deliberately behaved since he was affirmed by He Linwan, and he looked very temperamentless and sat beside He Linwan to pour tea and water for her and hand snacks.

When the storytelling downstairs came to an end, He Linwan naturally instructed Chunxiao to reward the very hard-working storyteller downstairs with fifty taels of silver.

Chunxiao couldn't help but open her eyes, and wanted to ask if fifty taels was too much?

It's not that Chunxiao hasn't seen the world, but in a place like a restaurant or teahouse, ordinary guests are happy to listen to stories and songs, but they are only rewarded with a few copper plates, and those who value the pomp are only rewarded with one or two taels at most. If there are many customers, the tips that these storytellers or singers will receive at the end of the day are also considerable.

However, Chunxiao glanced at the prince who was looking at her girl with a smile on her face, and still swallowed the words that came to her mouth, at this time she couldn't help but think that her girl's happy style might be similar to those gentlemen who spend a lot of money for the sake of Bojiaren's laughter?

Chunxiao responded calmly on her face, but she couldn't help but shake her head and sigh in her heart as she walked out, with a knife on her head, looking at how powerful her girl is, she can't escape a beauty.

He Linwan naturally didn't know about his maid's complaints, after Chunxiao left, only her and Li Yu were left in the room, and the two sat relatively close, although Li Yu didn't make any intimate behaviors, but seeing the sleeves of the two of them next to each other from time to time and hearing the shallow breathing of the people beside him, He Linwan couldn't help but be a little shaken.

He Linwan was silent, but secretly couldn't help but put the fingers of his right hand on his left wrist, and probed his pulse for a while, she calmly thought that the pulse was beating a little too fast.

Thinking so, He Linwan opened his mouth to divert his attention, "Has it been peaceful in the court recently?"

Li Yu withdrew his gaze from He Linwan's somewhat red earlobe, and did not expose it very intimately, he bent the corners of his mouth and lowered his head to peel the pine nuts, and said cooperatively: "How can there be peace in the court?" However, during this time, the competition between the five princes and the six princes was quite fierce, and there were many ministers who secretly stood in line. ”

He Linwan nodded, thought about it, and recounted the conversation between Mu Lanping and the chamberlain that he heard in the palace.

After hearing this, Li Yu instantly understood the purpose of Concubine Xian and the Mu family, and raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you here for the Fan family?"

He Linwan nodded, "I guess so too." ”

Li Yu didn't speak for a while, but seriously put the white and chubby pine nuts into the clean porcelain plate in front of him, and his eyebrows were calm.

He Linwan glanced at him and said, "Maybe this is a good opportunity." ”

Although Li Yu seemed to be idle and had nothing to do and had time to take him to Taibai Mansion to listen to the story, He Linwan knew that Li Yu was actually very busy after returning to Beijing, and he wanted to find a way between the various forces in the capital, and the situation that was hard to come by in the east also needed to be maintained. Although Li Yu is still the exiled prince of Hengyang, if he wants to get what he wants, he will one day come back openly, and everything he does now is to pave the way for the future.

Li Yu pondered for a moment, then raised his head and smiled at her, "It's indeed a good opportunity, but this time I'm grateful to Concubine Xian." Oh, and the Five Princes and the Fan family. ”

Li Yu thanked the forces of all parties who were fighting openly and secretly, but he did not thank He Linwan who revealed the news to him, because in his heart, he and her would be one after all.

He Linwan didn't say anything when he saw that he understood in his heart, although Li Yu's gaze was gentle and soft, He Linwan did not ignore the confidence and indifference in it, gentleness and softness were only for her, and self-confidence and indifference were for herself and the current situation.

Li Yu pushed a small plate of peeled pine nuts in front of He Linwan, watched her eat a few silently, and then asked, "Fan Yun, do you have any plans?"

In fact, this is the purpose of Li Yu's appointment with He Lin tonight.

Li Yu knew that He Linwan would definitely not be able to get around the Fan family if he wanted to take revenge, Fan Ge Lao had been in the limelight recently, and if the situation was allowed to develop, it would not be long before the Fan family returned to the top. Although Li Yu never said anything, what He Linwan cared about was also what he cared about.

In the days after returning to Beijing, Li Yu was busy running his own forces, half of the reason was to pave the way for his future, and the other half was to support her when he wanted to do something in his later days. Although the road ahead is difficult, he is not afraid because he has something he wants to protect in his heart. But he won't talk about these things with He Linwan.

He Linwan took a sip of the teacup before saying, "I entered the palace today and met His Majesty." ”

Li Yu frowned when he heard this, He Linwan knew that he was worried, and told Li Yu what he said at that time without waiting for him to speak.

Li Yu was stunned, and his brows finally relaxed.

He Linwan looked at Li Yu and asked, "What do you think that Your Majesty will think?"

Li Yu understood He Linwan's intentions, and the corners of his mouth curled, "Although Your Majesty summoned Fan Yun back to the court to allow him to compete with Mu Rusong, if Fan Yun's momentum exceeded his expectations and threatened the imperial power, he would never allow it." ”

He Linwan also smiled, but she just took the opportunity to wake up in front of the emperor today, and the emperor may not really take it to heart.

Li Yu seemed to know what He Linwan was thinking, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'll take care of the rest." ”

He Linwan glanced at Li Yu, didn't thank him, just nodded.

The two talked for a while, and did not discuss any major matters, but talked about some trivial matters, Li Yu said that a very distinctive restaurant had opened in the capital, and there were a few very special dishes, and he would take He Lin to taste it next time. He Linwan talked about the progress of Li Heng, Xiaohuzi and Xiaomu in studying and practicing martial arts, as well as some interesting stories about them during this time.

Chunxiao, who had quietly returned to the house and shrunk quietly to the side, looked at the relaxed smile on her girl's face in a daze, feeling that the girl at this moment was different from the usual days, although she couldn't tell what was different, but she felt that it would be good if the girl could keep smiling like this.

It's a pity that it didn't take long for He Linwan to stop, glanced at the sky outside, and said that it was time to go back.

Li Yu didn't keep it, just looked at He Linwan and said yes with a smile.

In order to avoid people's eyes, He Linwan left with Chunxiao first.
