When Jin Shuichen returned to the palace, he had already taken the lamp, hastily ate a few bites of food, and after washing, Xiao Xizi, the personal eunuch, brought a big red post.

Cousin invited him to enjoy the flowers? Jin Shuichen looked at the post a little confused, could it be that Fang Zhengyun wanted to find him, so he borrowed An Ning's hand? Thinking of this possibility, Jin Shuichen immediately asked Xiao Xizi.

"When did the county lord's post arrive?"

Xiao Xizi can serve Jin Shuichen closely, and he is naturally a clever person, and replied smartly: "This post was sent the day before yesterday, and the person who came to send it was the county lord's personal girl named Zisu, and the post was received by the prince on duty." This post was supposed to be given to the prince that day, but the day before yesterday you came back late, you washed and fell asleep. And today is another day without showing up...... That's why this prince just brought the post. ”

Xiao Xizi glanced at Jin Shuichen as he spoke, he was a personal servant, and he followed the prince all day long, so there was someone else to take care of the affairs of the East Palace, that is, this old eunuch named Wang Gonggong. The county lord's post was sent two days ago, but the prince was too busy to submit it, and I don't know if His Highness will blame him.

"Yes, got it."

As he spoke, he closed the post and handed it to Xiao Xizi, with no expression on his face, but he was a little disappointed in his heart. Think about it again, please put some of the ...... Flowers? It's not poetry, it's not a feast, it's a flower viewing that women like...... He was the prince of a country, the prince of the country, and accepted the invitation to enjoy the flowers...... I don't know what this cousin thinks.

But he is just this cousin, and he is loved by his father and queen mother in every way on weekdays, if he doesn't go...... Thinking of the ring ruler on the Father Emperor Dragon case, which was still very strong without a single crack, Jin Shuichen felt a pain in his back...... Forget it, let's go. He also heard about the little cousin falling into the water, no matter what he said, he should go to condole, and take this opportunity to go to the General's Mansion to meet Fang Zhengyun and his aunt, killing two birds with one stone.

"Xiao Xizi, you go and I will find out the Buddha beads that I asked for the day before yesterday at Daxiangguo Temple, and take them to the princess's mansion tomorrow."

This string of Buddhist beads is carved from fine rosewood, the size of a palm, just right to wear on the hand, it was Jin Shuichen who found it and sent it to the Great Xiangguo Temple to ask the host to open the light, ready to give it to the queen He Peifeng. Now he can only give it as a gift to his cousin, and he can't go empty-handed. And the meaning of this Buddha bead is good, just to shock my cousin.

……

Fang Yage didn't know Jin Shuichen's inner entanglement, since he knew that it was his father who took the pair of fake brothers and sisters away, Fang Yage felt that this matter was not over. An Yinhuo became Jin Yu's subordinate back then, and there must be something happening during this period.

Helplessly, there is no one available among Fang Ya's singers who can be sent out to inquire about the news, so he only asks Zi Su to pay more attention to the movements on Qi Fengyuan's side. Now my father rests with my mother every day, and if something happens, there must be some signs.

Sure enough, after dinner yesterday, Shisu told her that the atmosphere in Qi Fengyuan was a little unusual, in the past, my father and mother always practiced calligraphy and read a book after dinner, and the two basically had no communication. But last night, all the personal maids around my mother were resting in the wing, and the lights in the inner room of the main room were not extinguished until the second watch.

This morning, when I went to my mother's place to say goodbye, Fang Yage also felt the meaning of a mountain rain coming and the wind filling the building. Fang Yage's heart chuckled, and he thought that something must have happened, so his parents would talk all night, so the two of them were listless this morning...... It's just that she doesn't know what's going on.

"County Lord, today the prince came to the mansion to enjoy the flowers, but he wants to move out the eighteen bachelors and Nanyang roses in the flower room?"

Fang Yage has been a little uneasy since he came back from Qifeng Yuan this morning, and this will be even more in a daze, Bai Zhi saw it, and felt that the county lord now had an aura that no one should approach. Of course, she didn't want to disturb the county lord at this time...... But this morning, I received a reply from someone from the East Palace, saying that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would come to the Princess's Mansion to enjoy the flowers in some time......

In fact, when she heard the news that the prince was coming early in the morning, Bai Zhi was depressed, and the county lord invited the prince to come to enjoy the flowers, why didn't she even hear the news before...... Under normal circumstances, you have to start sorting out two or three days in advance when you invite someone to visit the house, not to mention that it is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who is invited.

But not only did the county lord of her family not explain in advance, but he was still in a daze when he arrived, seeing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was coming, and he didn't arrange for someone to tidy up the garden, was he going to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to see the lotus leaves in this pool?

"What? Oh, no, I think it's good now, you just let the idlers and others avoid it. ”

Fang Yage was racking his brains to think about things now, and he didn't notice Bai Zhi's resentful little eyes at all. It was originally an excuse to enjoy the flowers, and she had already asked Zisu to take An Yinhuo to the Mercy Star Pavilion, thinking that he would meet the prince.

According to Fang Yage's original plan, he was going to ask the prince's cousin a side to see what kind of role he played and what kind of attitude he had in the affairs of the An family, and then decided on the follow-up matters.

But her father and mother's abnormalities made her understand that something important must have happened, so it would be inappropriate to wait. Fang Yage decided to meet his cousin first to ask what happened to his father, and then arrange for them to meet.

Bai Zhi naturally didn't know what was going on, and when she heard Fang Yage say this, she could only shake her head weakly, and sighed secretly in her heart, County Lord, although you are a guest and a host, then you are the prince of a country, you are too casual. What is there to appreciate about the lotus leaves in this pool?

"Since the county lord said so, this back garden is also forgotten. But should you make a menu, the lord of the county, and tell the kitchen steward to prepare lunch. ”

This flower appreciation or something can be said to appreciate the withered beauty of a pool, but this meal is hard work, the county lord does not speak, where does the kitchen have the courage to set the recipe. Bai Zhi felt that she must be a worrying fate, and now she had made her county lord so worried that she began to grow gray hair.

"Oh, the prince's cousin probably won't eat in the mansion."

Fang Yage thought to herself, if the prince's cousin was still in the mood to stay for dinner after listening to what she said, she would have to admire her cousin's mind was too calm. But seeing that Bai Zhi's face was about to speak, Fang Yage still added.

"You let the kitchen steward prepare some exquisite dishes on weekdays, don't ask for expensive materials, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can't eat anything good in the palace, but ask for something new. Don't have too many dishes, just seven or eight dishes, and you can help you get an idea when you go back. ”

Uh~~ She helped with the idea, this is too much attention, helplessly sighed in her heart, Bai Zhi thought that she would have to take the time to go to the kitchen to supervise one or two in person.

Turned her head and called the little girl at the door, and asked her to tell Fang Yage's instructions to the kitchen lady Shi Mama, and repeatedly emphasized that it was for His Royal Highness the Prince's food, and she must be conscientious, but don't make a mistake and lose the face of the princess's mansion.

Bai Zhi returned to Fang Yage's side after giving the order, and saw Banxia leading a white-clothed figure to appear at the second door, followed by a little eunuch wearing a regular costume of internal history. Two steps forward, it became clear that the person who came was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, whom they had been waiting for for a long time.

Today, Jin Shuichen did not wear the prince's regular clothes, but wore a white moon-white silver silk dark pattern tuanhua robe, with white brocade boots under his feet, high black hair on his head, and no net hat, but a transparent hosta to fix his hair.

Bai Zhi hurriedly lowered her head, not daring to look directly at the prince's appearance, but suddenly thought of the words that the princess had read before, humble and gentlemanly, beautiful as a crown of jade...... Thinking that something was wrong, he spat on himself fiercely in his heart, little hoof, the prince is what you can evaluate?

Seeing the prince walking up, Fang Yage hurriedly saluted, "I've seen my cousin." ”

Behind her, Bai Zhi also squatted on her knees, showing respect.

"An Ning, you invited your brother here today, but what rare and exotic herbs did you prepare to open your eyes?"

Prince Jin Shuichen saw that Fang Yage was wearing a golden gown with a big red butterfly pattern all over the place today, and her head was dotted with emerald inlaid ruby flowers and fruits, and her little face was shining, and he felt that she had a good complexion. It seems that it is really like what the queen mother said, and the fall into the water did not leave any root causes.

Jin Shuichen turned his head and stretched out his hand to Xiao Xizi, who immediately handed over a rosewood box with jade inlaid on his eyebrows, which contained the string of Buddhist beads.

"This is the Buddha bead that I specially asked the abbot of Daxiangguo Temple to open the light, you fell into the water a few days ago, and you should be shocked by it."

The gift given by the prince is considered to be valuable, in addition to the precious material of the Buddha beads themselves, just the abbot of the Great Xiangguo Temple personally opened the light, which is enough to make countless people blush.

"Well, thank you, Brother Prince."

I saw a pair of snow-white hands quickly floating in front of me, and the rosewood box fell into the arms of Bai Zhi, who was hanging his head lower.

'County Lord, is it really good to bring the gifts from others so lightly? Bai Zhi was speechless again.

"Brother Prince, I have something important to say about inviting you here today."

Fang Yage didn't have the heart to look at the gifts, and wanted to explain the matter of the An family brothers and sisters to the prince.

"Brother Prince, can you hold back left and right, there are some things I don't want others to know."

Even if Jin Shuichen is sluggish, he can feel it now, and today's tranquility is unusual...... So with a wave of her hand, Xiao Xizi stood aside in understanding, Bai Zhi saw this, glanced at the county lord of her family, and no longer followed, leaving Jin Shuichen and Fang Yage alone to walk towards the back garden.

"Brother Prince, something happened to the court yesterday." Passing by a begonia tree, at this time the flowers had fallen, and the fruits were hanging all over the branches, Fang Yage picked one and played with it in his hand, but his eyes were staring at Jin Shuichen.

Hearing Fang Yage ask like this, Jin Shuichen was stunned for a moment. Originally, his appointment to enjoy the flowers at the mansion today was fake, but it was true to see General Fang. But since only Fang Yage's master and servant greeted him at the door just now, Jin Shuichen understood that his aunt and Fang Zhengyun didn't know about his passing through the mansion, otherwise it would be impossible not to come out to greet him. Although he is nominally their nephew, he is also the crown prince of a country......
