Chapter 008: What Are You Shy?
The two female officials crawled out of the inner hall and hurried back to the Zhaoyang Palace. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Fu Yan was about to leave, when he saw the panicked female officer hurriedly running back, he paused and frowned, "What's wrong?" ”
After the two female officials saluted the prince, they knelt heavily on the floor of the main hall with a puff.
The queen's complexion, which had just been persuaded by the prince to calm down, was suddenly difficult to look at, and asked coldly: "You two ran back in such a hurry, but you were reprimanded by that son-in-law?" ”
The two female officials glanced at each other and nodded in unison, "Queen Niangniang, the third prince does not let the slaves and maids serve him in the dormitory."
"Rubbish!" The queen flicked her wide sleeves, and the tea cup on the desk suddenly fell to the ground and fell into pieces, she stood up and glared at the two female officials angrily, "Even one person can't serve well, what else can you do!" ”
The bodies of the two female officers trembled like chaff.
The queen originally wanted to let the female official be dragged down to dispose of it, but Fu Yan sensed the queen's intentions first, and hurriedly stopped her, "Queen Mother, forget it, Erchen will go to see the third brother." ”
The queen's face softened a little, and she said calmly: "If you go over, be careful, don't be hurt by that madman." ”
"Queen Mother, please rest assured." After repeated reassurances, Fu Yan slowly walked towards the third prince's bedroom.
After the two female officers were kicked out, Fu Qi fell down on the soft big bed, sleepy, and it didn't take long for the sound of even breathing to be heard.
When Fu Yan came over, there were no palace people waiting inside and outside the third prince's bedroom, and no one went in to report, Fu Yan quickened his pace and quickly came to the outside of Fu Qi's bedroom, opened the curtain and walked in.
Fu Qi's robe was loose and unkempt, so he reclined on the bed and slept in a big shape, where was there still half of the noble air of the royal family's children.
There was a faint heat coming out from behind the screen, accompanied by the scent of flowers, which diluted the pungent smell of wine in the room.
With just one glance, Fu Yan knew that Fu Qi had driven the two female officials out before he could bathe.
"Ah Qi" Fu Yan shouted: "Wake up." ”
Fuqi didn't move, and slept deeply.
Fu Yan frowned, stretched out his hand and patted Fu Qi's face, and called again: "Ah Qi, wake up quickly, my father will come over later." ”
The man on the bed turned over slightly and continued to sleep.
Fu Yan sighed and said to himself: "Why bother, the more you give up on yourself, the more your father and mother will dislike you." ”
The person on the bed still didn't move, but if you look closely, it is not difficult to find that his eyebrows are faintly gloomy and cold.
Seeing that Fu Yan couldn't wake up Fu Qi, he simply didn't stay too long, turned around and walked out, and when he went out, he happened to see Liu Guang, the big eunuch next to King Min, coming over, his mind moved, he paused, and asked, "Where is Gonggong Liu going?" ”
Liu Guang asked Fu Yan for peace, and then said with a smile: "King Min asked the servants to pass the word, and the third prince of Xuan went to Deyang Hall to meet him." ”
Deyang Hall is the dormitory of King Min.
For so many years, King Min has almost forgotten that there is such a son as Fuqi, and even the palace banquet two days ago deliberately put him under house arrest, and sent layers of heavy troops to guard Fuqi's dormitory, just to prevent him from getting drunk and coming out to make trouble.
Fu Yan squinted, looked at Liu Guang carefully, and asked in a low voice, "Father-in-law, did my father say that he wanted the third brother to go to Deyang Palace?" ”
Liu Guang still had that happy look on his face, and said: "Where do the servants understand the master's thoughts, they all follow the master's instructions, and don't dare to ask more questions." ”
Fu Yan took a piece of jade jade pendant with a smooth body from his waist and handed it to Liu Guang, the corners of his lips hooked slightly, "My father-in-law has worked really hard for my father to saddle before and after the horse, and this should be an additional reward from the son of this world." ”
Liu Guang's body shook, where did he dare to take the jade pendant, took two steps back, bowed down and said: "The prince has tormented the slave, it is the duty of the slave to do things for King Min, and he resolutely does not dare to invite credit, and I hope that the prince will put away this jade pendant, so as not to make people look at it and think about it. ”
Fu Yan listened to Liu Guang's words, and his face gradually became gloomy.
The Jiang family is even a eunuch and holds the government outside, but only Liu Guang, the chief eunuch, is the confidant of King Min, and he can't be subdued no matter what means are used. This made Fu Yan very helpless, helpless and a little disgusting at the same time. The old eunuch of Xindao, when the son of this world succeeds to the throne, first of all, I will sacrifice your blood to the country!
Liu Guang always lowered his head and said kindly: "If the prince has nothing to do, the slave will retire." ”
After Liu Guang finished speaking, he hurried to the palace of the third prince.
Fu Yan didn't leave, and sat down in the pavilion next to him, and immediately someone from the palace offered melons and fruits.
Fu Yan didn't have the heart to eat, and looked at the third prince's bedroom with a pair of dark eyes. He thought that Liu Guang, the old eunuch, was either blasted out by Fu Qi or returned empty-handed.
However, to Fu Yan's disbelief, an hour later, Fu Qi actually bathed and changed clothes, cleaned himself up and followed Liu Guang out.
Fu Qiping likes to be pure, so he dresses more casually, plain robe and hosta, but he looks like this, he looks like a person outside the world.
Fu Yan picked up the melon that was just about to be brought to his mouth, and fell to the ground without warning, and a pair of eyes suddenly widened, looking at Fu Qi who was slowly walking towards this side with a clear face, his fingers in his sleeves clenched, and he spasmed for a moment.
After a while, Fu Yan collected all his thoughts, and walked over to greet Fu Qi with a smile, "It's rare that the third brother is willing to cheer up today, presumably my father will be very happy to see him." ”
A sneer welled up on Fuqi's delicate lips, "I thought the prince would say that you were very happy. ”
"Happy, of course I'm happy!" Fu Yan had a warm smile on his face, and no one could see half of the flaws, "You and I are my own brothers, and I am naturally too late to be happy when I see that you are no longer decadent." ”
Fu Qi looked at Fu Yan lightly, "Does the prince know the difference between a man and a dog?" ”
Fu Yan was stunned.
Fu Qi said unhurriedly: "A dog is always a dog, and people are sometimes not people, so even if it is a mother's sibling, the difference between this is also big, the dog will look at the family affection of a mother's compatriot, but people are not necessarily, especially in the royal family, there are many cannibalism between a mother and compatriots, you say, right?" ”
Seeing Fu Yan's frozen face, Fu Qi smiled slightly, "But I believe that the prince of the world is a broad-minded person and will not deal with useless people like me. ”
Fu Yan's face was completely cold, but at this time, Fu Qi had already followed Liu Guang to the Deyang Palace, and Fu Yan could only look at Fu Qi's straight back with disgust.
No one knew what King Min said to Fu Qi in the Deyang Palace, and everyone in the palace only knew that after the third prince came out of the Deyang Palace, the whole person was as radiant as if he had been reborn, and there was a slight smile on his beautiful face, which made the palace maids dizzy.
The third prince is completely alive!
When the news reached Zhaoyang Palace, the queen's first reaction was not to go to the palace to visit her son who had finally "lived", but frowned tightly, with anger hidden in her eyebrows, "What did King Min say to him!" ”
The female officer was relieved: "Niangniang, weren't you still angry because the third prince drank all day long and didn't do his job, but now it's good, the third prince has completely cheered up, you should be surprised." ”
"Surprise?" Queen Huo Ran raised her head and said sharply: "Where is there any surprise, it is clearly a fright!" ”
When the female official saw that the queen's face was wrong, she was so frightened that she immediately fell silent.
The queen eased her emotions and stood up, "Swing and go to the third prince's bedroom!" ”
The palace ladies immediately moved forward to open the way.
After a stick of incense, the queen came to the third prince's bedroom.
At that time, the hall was full of palace people and eunuchs, and when they heard that the queen had arrived, they knelt on the ground and saluted.
When the queen saw this situation, she frowned again, she still remembered that she asked her personal female official to serve Fu Qi in the morning, but she was kicked out by him, it was only a few hours later, oh no, I went to Deyang Hall and walked around, Fu Qi was like a different person, what is going on?!
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, and the queen hurried to the front hall.
Hearing that the queen was coming, Fu Qi was not surprised at all, accompanied by several palace maids, slowly came all the way to the front hall, knelt on the ground and respectfully greeted the queen, "Fu Qi has seen the queen's mother." ”
This way of greeting is not wrong, but the queen is the biological mother of the third prince, and when he says this, he clearly leaves the mother-son relationship out of the clouds and meets each other as a monarch and a minister.
The queen's face was cold, and she was not in a hurry to investigate this matter, so she asked, "I heard that you went to Deyang Hall at noon?" ”
Fu Qi didn't speak, which was a tacit acquiescence.
The queen asked, "What did King Min tell you?" ”
Fu Qi slowly raised his head, and his handsome and extraordinary face was glowing like jade, "Didn't the queen say that there will be a flower viewing banquet in three days, why, I cheer up now, but you are not happy?" ”
"You!" The queen was so angry that her face turned pale, "This palace is your queen mother, why do you have such an attitude!" ”
Fu Qi curled his lips slightly, "When I regarded the queen as a mother, you only regarded me as a dog, a dog that can bring the greatest benefit to you and your eldest son, and now that I am completely cheered up and out of your control, are you starting to panic?" ”
The queen was speechless for a moment, and the fingers holding the teacup unconsciously converged and retracted.
Fu Qiben was right, from the beginning of marrying into the royal family, she knew that King Min's mind was not on herself, so after giving birth to two sons, she began to plan, step by step, in order to bring all the Minguo rivers and mountains into the Jiang family's pocket, she actually had no feelings for these two children.
Fu Yan is the son of the grandson and the son of the world, so Fu Qi, the second son, can only be sacrificed and become a stepping stone for Fu Yan to ascend the throne. The queen still remembers that in the past, Fu Qi was so simple that he didn't know anything about the world, he liked to play with literature and ink, and he liked idle clouds and wild cranes even more, and he didn't care about these palace battles at all, but since that incident, he began to slump and completely disrupted the queen's plan, how could the queen not be annoyed?
It was also after that incident that Fuqi completely became a useless son in the eyes of King Min, an abandoned son on the Jiang family's chessboard, but the queen thought that the emaciated camel was bigger than a horse, so she arranged a flower-viewing banquet three days later, the purpose was to squeeze the final use value of Fuqi, as long as he married the concubine of the Taifu family, it would be a great help to the Jiang family to any extent, and paved a brocade carpet for Fuyan's king's road.
But what the queen never expected was that her hard persuasion and beating and scolding could not make Fu Qi wake up, King Min just passed him over and said something, which made him completely cheer up, Fu Qi such a sudden change was completely out of the queen's control, so that she was a little overwhelmed for a while, and she always doubted what King Min said to Fu Qi.
Glancing at the arrogance and disdain in the depths of her son's eyes, the queen eased her mind and softened her tone, "Qi'er, don't blame the queen mother for being ruthless, over the years, you have been in a slump, and the queen mother's heart is also painful, your grandfather"
"Enough!" When Fu Qi heard the queen mention Jiang Ye, he immediately interrupted with a cold face, and his voice was icy, "Don't get involved with the Jiang family for everything, I am a descendant of the Fu family, and my surname is not Jiang!" ”
The queen trembled with anger, she never thought that the bird in her palm would have wings hardened one day, and she would turn her face and not recognize people.
The female officer hurriedly gave the third prince a look and motioned him not to continue.
Fu Qi turned a blind eye, and his cold voice continued, "If the queen is fine, I will leave." ”
Standing up slowly, Fu Qi turned around and wanted to leave.
"Wait!" The queen suddenly called to him.
Fu Qi paused, but did not look back.
The queen said, "The flower feast in three days"
Fu Qi's voice has regained its indifference, and he can't hear any emotion, "Marriage matters are all up to the parents. ”
This sentence can be regarded as a direct promise that he will come to the flower-viewing banquet three days later.
The queen's arrogance in her chest subsided, and she took the teacup handed by the female official and poured two sips into the fire.
The female official said cautiously: "Niangniang, since the third prince said that he would come to the flower viewing banquet, then you can rest assured!" ”
The queen nodded, "After all, it crawled out of my belly, no matter how you say it, he can't forget that I am his real mother!" "Want to get out of her grip so quickly and become her enemy? What a joke!
In the past few days since Zhengyi disappeared, Tang Banxue was so anxious that his eyes were about to cry and swollen, Yu Yinchen and Xigong Liangren's guards sent out batch after batch, searching every day, but there was never any whereabouts of Zhengyi, only that he had contact with the blind mother-in-law in South Street before he disappeared, but when the guards arrived at South Street, the blind mother-in-law guarding the temple was also gone.
Early in the morning, there was a knock on Xun Jiu's door.
There was a faint helpless voice outside, "Miss Tang, the princess hasn't gotten up yet, please wait patiently." ”
Tang Banxue was so anxious that she didn't sleep well for the past two days, where could she wait, knocked on the door for a long time and didn't hear any movement, so she simply shouted inside, "Ah Jiu, today is the flower viewing banquet hosted by the queen, why don't you all seem to know about it?" ”
Xun Jiu had actually woken up a long time ago, but she was lying on the bed and didn't get up, and as soon as she turned her head, she looked at Fusheng's smiling slender eyes.
Sighing helplessly, Xun Jiu reached out and removed the hand that Fu Sheng was holding her waist with, and said, "Get up, lest the ancestor outside turn gray in a hurry." ”
"Do you have the strength?" Fu Sheng asked with a smile.
Xun Jiu rolled his eyes at him, "Today is the flower viewing banquet set up by the queen herself, and everyone's posts have been delivered, is it possible that I will find another excuse to shirk it?" ”
"It's okay not to go." Fu Sheng said: "Who dares to say half a sentence about you?" ”
Xun Jiu was speechless for a moment, "Yes, Your Royal Highness King Qin, you have an aura of old age, and you can crush a large number of mouths wherever you go, but the more I do this, the more pampered and arrogant I become, I don't take the Min royal family in my eyes at all, and I have the lesson of the last palace banquet, is it possible that you really want me to become a bewitching princess of the country and be scolded by the world?" ”
"You're a witch." Fu Sheng said while waiting for her to get dressed: "It's just that I have the final say on who I confuse." ”
"I'm too lazy to talk to you!" Xun Jiu sneered, and after fastening his belt, he walked to the bronze mirror and sat down.
Fu Sheng went to the outer hall and pushed open the door, and said to the moon who was guarding outside, "Go and fetch a basin of clear water." ”
Tang Banxue saw Fu Sheng and hurriedly asked, "Is your wife getting up?" ”
Fu Sheng raised an eyebrow.
Tang Banxue choked suddenly, and people let her get clean water, obviously she hadn't freshened up yet, and she asked like this, which was really a bit abrupt.
With a smirk, Tang Banxue said, "I'll go to the front hall and wait for you first." ”
Fu Sheng bowed his head slightly.
After a short time, Tayue came back with a basin of water.
Fu Sheng took it, walked to the inside, after Xun Jiu cleaned his face, Fu Sheng picked up a clean velvet towel for her to gently wipe the water droplets on her face, and after about a quarter of an hour, Xun Jiu sat back in front of the bronze mirror.
Fu Sheng began to draw her eyebrows and hair.
Xun Jiu looked at the quiet scene of the years with satisfaction, and suddenly remembered what Ah Zhan said last night, she wondered: "It is said that today's flower viewing banquet is actually a blind date banquet for the third prince, this third prince is really not a simple character as Yu Yinchen said, he used to appear in the eyes of everyone as a drunkard, and suddenly cheered up two days ago, do you say there will be anything strange in this?" ”
Fu Sheng pondered for a moment and said: "The situation in the court of Minguo, the relatives control the court, but at present, it seems that the third prince who crawled out of the queen's belly is an alternative. ”
Xun Jiu was stunned for a moment, "Are you saying that he doesn't care about the stalemate and strife between his relatives and the royal family at all?" ”
Fu Sheng nodded, "The third prince is just a small chess piece for the Jiang clan, but for King Min, the third prince is an important hub for counterattacking the Jiang clan. ”
Xun Jiu felt more and more puzzled, "The biological mother of the third prince is the queen, but a few years ago, the queen and King Min didn't want to see him, and now this person suddenly cheered up, obviously controlled by King Min, but how can King Min control such a proud person in his bones?" ”
"Maybe it has something to do with the reason why the third prince is in a slump." Fusheng Road.
Xun Jiu nodded, and only this reason could be explained.
After packing up, the two came to the front hall, Tang Banxue had already drunk two teas, heard the footsteps, quickly raised his head, and urged: "You two are too grinding, since you are here, let's leave quickly!" ”
Xun Jiu looked around, she didn't see the Xuanji Pavilion Master, the Xuantai Mirror and the Xuantai Xiyan along the way, she was a little strange, "Where did the others go?" ”
Tang Banxue explained: "Madam, the patriarch and the pavilion master didn't receive the post, and they secretly went to the Ghost Forest early in the morning, and the palace master of the national teacher couldn't wait for you to go to the palace first." ”
Xun Jiu glared, "What did you say?" My mother and grandfather went to the Ghost Forest? ”
"yes!" Tang Banxue blinked and said, "Madame ordered before leaving, if you ask, tell the truth, and let you not worry, the three of them will join forces and will definitely come back safely." ”
Xun Jiu was still a little uneasy, glanced at Fu Sheng, Fu Sheng bowed lightly to her, "Don't worry, the three of them are strong, if they can't break in, they won't break in without measure." ”
Xun Jiu was a little relieved, and without much words, he and Tang Banxue walked through the palace gate together and came to the outside of the palace to get in the carriage.
Xun Jiu watched her go up before opening the curtain and sitting up.
The convoy began to move in the direction of the royal palace.
Xun Jiu likes to look at the jacaranda outside, and rolls up the curtains along the way.
Since recovering his memory, Fu Sheng also knew that his dislike for jacarandas came from the emotions of Fu Yan in his previous life, and now he appreciated it with a new attitude, and he also felt that this light purple petal was indescribably cute.
Looking at Xun Jiu's quiet porcelain face, Fu Sheng curled the corners of her lips slightly and asked her, "Do you want to go back to Yanjing for the Spring Festival?" ”
Xun Jiu withdrew his gaze from the window, looked at Fusheng's smiling eyebrows, and nodded, "It's a little, I haven't seen Ji Liming and them for a long time, and I really miss them." ”
Speaking of Ji Liming, Xun Jiu immediately remembered the simple and kind prince Fu Ziyang five hundred years ago, and then sneered, "If you let him know that the founding emperor of Dayan is his previous life, I don't know how excited he will be." ”
"Then you better not let him know." Fu Sheng said: "Lest he be proud, maybe he will let you call him what in the future!" ”
"I couldn't have told him about it." Xun Jiu smiled slyly, "But Ji Liming in the previous life called my sister, well, I think this point is very useful." ”
After finishing speaking, Xun Jiu sighed heavily, "It stands to reason that we should get together as a family in the spring year, but unfortunately the time is urgent, if you go to Yanjing, it will take more than a month to go back and forth, so if you delay it like this, I am afraid that you will miss the time to get the six materials." ”
"I'm just asking." Fu Sheng said: "I didn't plan to go back for the Spring Festival, anyway, my mother and grandfather are here, and it can be regarded as a reunion." ”
Xun Jiu smiled, "For me, nothing is as important as you. ”
"Is that true?" Fu Sheng raised his eyebrows and stared at her seriously, with a hint of expectation on her beautiful face, and a little ridicule in her expectation.
Xun Jiu couldn't figure out his routine, and he didn't dare to answer casually, so he had to be vague, "Anyway, my father and brother are gone, people say that my husband is heaven, and I am already married to you, so naturally you think it is important." ”
Fu Sheng laughed lightly, "Why is it that all of a sudden, like a mouse that has seen the light, he is too scared to speak?" ”
"You're the mouse!" Xun Jiu was angry and raised his hand to hammer him.
Fu Sheng didn't dodge either, "Then aren't you a female mouse?" ”
Xun Jiu remembered what Xigong Liangren had said, and couldn't help laughing: "That's always much stronger than a tigress." ”
The beloved man of the West Palace, who had already arrived outside the gate of the royal city, suddenly sneezed loudly in the blue sky.
When Xun Jiu got off the car, he saw several beautiful women standing by the carriage and refusing to enter the palace gate, with a reluctant face.
Casually glanced at it, Xun Jiu understood, today it is said to be a flower viewing banquet, in fact, it is a blind date for the third prince, the third prince was snubbed by the queen and King Min in the early years, these days there are rumors that he cheered up, and the former drunkard judged the two, but after all, the former reputation is there, how can not erase the black history, so in the hearts of those famous daughters, the third prince is not a good person, if he really marries him, maybe he will be beaten to death when he is drunk.
Even if there is a queen, a mother-in-law in a high position, the daughters will still be reluctant, and they are afraid that they will be favored later.
There are also several extremely smart girls, dressed extremely plainly, with plain faces, and they will not be found in the crowd.
Xun Jiu smacked his lips secretly, "How ugly is this third prince, to the point where everyone is afraid to avoid it?" ”
Fu Sheng didn't even look over there, and said to Xun Jiu: "The carriage of the national teacher and the palace master is in front, it seems that the people haven't come down yet, let's go over and take a look." ”
Xun Jiu nodded, and slowly stepped out of the carriage with the support of Fu Sheng.
The moment he saw Fu Sheng, Fang Cai was still aggrieved and tearful, and hundreds of daughters who were unwilling to enter the palace suddenly had their eyes lit up, as if they saw the gods descending to earth.
Xun Jiu felt dozens of pairs of eyes staring at Fu Sheng, and immediately pouted unhappily: "I knew I wouldn't come, I would be a rotten peach blossom at first glance!" ”
Fu Sheng helplessly raised his forehead and said: "I said I didn't use it in the morning, who volunteered to say that I couldn't brush off the queen's kindness?" ”
Xun Jiu choked and glared at him, "Look at it, as soon as you come, these women's eyes glow green, like hungry wolves who have been hungry and thirsty for decades." ”
Fu Sheng glanced at the palace guards who were staring at Xun Jiu, and sighed deliberately: "Since you don't want me to recruit peach blossoms, then I still learn from the national teacher and the palace master to simply sit in the carriage and not get down." ”
Xun Jiu sneered, "People are half-hidden because they are single, and you are a person like you who wants to be a father, what are you shy about?" ”

2333 has been struggling with whether to let them return to Yanjing for the Spring Festival reunion, but he still focuses on the task, and when he finds all the materials to save the national teacher, he can also return to Yanjing for a reunion
