Nanke, in Guangren Palace, the palace maid Mu Hibiscus entered the inner hall, with a happy face, light steps, walked in front of Concubine Jin, and saluted: "Niangniang, His Royal Highness the Second Prince has come down." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Concubine Jin leaned on the leaning, her eyes closed slightly, she took a short rest, she was lazy and tired, her hair was high and beautiful, the jade hairpin scratched her head and shook her golden steps straight into the temples, although she was nearly forty years old, her skin was as white as snow and tender as a girl, no wonder she was alone in the harem now, and all the decorations were very luxurious. Hearing this, she immediately raised her eyes and sat upright: "Don't let me Yu'er come in soon!"

As soon as the words fell, without waiting for the hibiscus to spread, he heard the hearty and open laughter of the second prince Su Jiayu: "Mother!"

He strode in, tall and tough, beaded crown brocade robe, the prince's nobility was fully revealed, the faint gloomy color between the eyebrows dissipated, he was overjoyed, smiled and stepped forward, before he was about to give a salute, and was supported by Concubine Jin, she said: "Yu'er, my mother seems to be a little different from you today, why are you so happy?"

Jiayu's smile deepened, and he motioned for Concubine Jin to retreat, and Concubine Jin said, "You go down first, this palace wants to say something considerate to my emperor." ”

"Yes. The palace people bowed and exited the inner sanctum. Jiayu added: "Hibiscus can stay." Mu Hibiscus paused, looked back at Jiayu, made eye contact with him, and smiled: "Yes." ”

The palace door closed, Su Jiayu and Concubine Jin sat down, and Mu Hibiscus served tea and waited aside.

Su Jiayu took the tea offered by Mu Hibiscus, took a sip, and said to Concubine Jin: "Mother, today in the court, my father has decreed that Lord Cao Guangchun and Cao will be the secretary of the military department!"

"Cao Guangchun, your father-in-law Cao Guangchun?"

Su Jiayu smiled and nodded: "Yes, it's him! The queen mother doesn't know, the eldest grandson Qingyun led a cadre of Wenchen to oppose it many times, and my father insisted on appointing my father-in-law Cao Guangchun as the secretary of the military department, this father and emperor obviously did it on purpose, mother, don't you say this is not gratifying? What is even more gratifying is that I heard that the imperial sister also sent a detailed investigation of my father-in-law through the matter of the Tongtian Altar, but she found nothing! The imperial sister racked her brains to catch him, but she didn't catch it!"

Concubine Jin Guifei ignored her demeanor for a while, covered her mouth and laughed, leaning forward and closing her back, "How do you think there is still today? Zhaoming, Zhaoming, let her and her incompetent brother be proud for so long, it's time to frustrate her!"

The confidant palace maid Mu Hibiscus had fun with them, and stepped forward and said: "Congratulations to Your Highness, congratulations to Niangniang, this is a quick event, but please forgive the slave maid for saying more, even if you are happy, please be more careful, the wall has ears, I am afraid of being listened to by Luo Yunmen......."

Hibiscus's reminder was also reasonable, and Concubine Jin put away her smug smile and returned to her solemnity. Su Jiayu's eyes rolled, fell on Mu Hibiscus's delicate face, and reached out to hold her hand, "It's still Mu Hibiscus who is thoughtful and thoughtful, and I have to be more vigilant in the future." ”

Mu Hibiscus made a shy breakaway, "Your Highness commanded, Mu Hibiscus dare not obey." ”

Su Jiayu let go of her hand and laughed with Concubine Jin: "Sooner or later, I have to ask my mother for the girl Hibiscus, this girl is very wonderful." ”

Concubine Jin smiled skillfully: "You, you, if I give you the hibiscus, I'm afraid you won't come to see your mother for ten days and half a month, right?" ”

In the evening, after Su Jiayu celebrated with Cao Guangchun outside the palace, he returned to his Changming Palace. In the Nanke Imperial Palace, the Yitian Palace is the central axis, and this central axis is pushed from the Yitian Palace to the imperial study, the Tianqi Palace, the sleeping palace of Emperor Nancheng, the Shaohua Palace, the queen's dormitory, and the Zhaoming Palace; Empress Nanke was buried early, and Jiayi was a minor, so she has been living in Shaohua Palace, not with the princes.

Su Jiayu is over twenty-two years old, because Emperor Nancheng has not yet established a prince, and the princes are not allowed to seal the king out of the palace to build a mansion, so he still lives in the palace when he passes by the vacant East Palace Gate at night, he lifts the carriage curtain and looks, after watching for so many years, he only feels that this East Palace is not out of reach tonight.

He smiled lightly at the corner of his lips, was slightly drunk, lowered the curtain, and entered the Changming Palace.

The palace people helped him into the dormitory, waiting for him to rest, he had no sleep, and wanted to write a letter to a minister in the court to win people's hearts. The palace people retreated, the door was still open, and he sat in front of the bookcase and wrote a letter.

Suddenly, a cold wind blew, and the doors of the palace were closed, and he stopped his pen and looked around strangely, and there was no one in the palace except him.

There was silence for a while, and he was about to pick up his pen and continue to write, but he vaguely heard a sound from the bookshelf at the other end of the dormitory, so he stood up, and lightly removed the decorative sword hanging on the wall, and walked gently to the bookshelf.

The veil on the bookshelf shook, and under the bright candle flame, the brocade yarn shone brightly, and his eyes flashed, and at that moment, it seemed that a figure flashed from the veil, and he shouted: "Who!" No one answered, he suspected that he was an assassin, drew his sword and picked open the veil, but saw that there was no one in front of the bookshelf, his eyes fell to the ground from the bookshelves on both sides, and when he looked at it, there was a thin old book on the beautifully illustrated carpet, and he obviously did not remember that he had such a book.

Su Jiayu hooked up the book with his long sword, and saw clearly that the word "account book" was written on the cover of the book, and he was even more suspicious, so he opened it inexplicably, read it carefully, and understood that this was a book that recorded all the silver taels spent by the Ministry of Industry on this project when the Tongtian Altar was built five years ago, and the more he looked back, the more shocked he became, what kind of account book was this? This was obviously a piece of evidence of his father-in-law's embezzlement of huge amounts of public funds! The number on it was not enough to pay it back when Cao Guangchun died ten times! Before marrying Cao Guangchun, he also received a lot of benefits from Cao Guangchun, so it seems that those benefits also came from the dirty silver back then!

His face turned pale, as if he was being put to the throat with a sword, he gasped a few times, and held the account book tightly in his hand, and he eagerly searched every corner of the inner hall of the dormitory, but there was no one to be seen, and he intended to destroy the account book first, and walked out of the inner curtain quickly, to find the candle.

Su Jiayu took off the lampshade of a palace lamp in a panic, and was about to light the candle to burn the account book, but accidentally let the wax oil burn it, and with a shake of his hand, the account book fell to the ground.

"Humph!"

A slightly sinister sneer came from behind, Su Jiayu turned around suddenly, and he saw in a panicked and frightened look that a woman dressed as a palace maid was sitting in the corner of his bookcase, propped up on the bookcase with one hand, and holding the letter he had just written in the other, with a cold face, thin lips and a shallow smile, a pair of phoenix eyes flashed, and a little cinnabar mole was even brighter between the willow eyebrows, she looked at him playfully and mockingly, and her sharp gaze seemed to have seen through him.

"Who are you!, how dare you trespass into the prince's bedchamber!," he asked aloud.

She was not surprised, took his letter in her hand and played with it, her eyebrows and eyes were charming, and she made a boo gesture: "Be quiet, His Royal Highness the Second Prince." Isn't it just an account book? It scares you to the point that your soul is scattered?

"You got this account book?" asked Su Jiayu.

She said, "Yes, but it took a lot of hard work to get it." ”
