When Fan Yu saw Cao Yan, he immediately hugged his fists as a salute.

The two exchanged a few words at the door, and Cao Tong entered the mansion under the guidance of Fan Yu.

As soon as Cao Tong sat down, he said to Fan Yu: "This time, one is to congratulate Hou Ye on his housewarming, and the other is to thank Hou Ye for his great efforts to send his younger brother to study in the mansion of the Eight Kings and Chitose. Therefore, some small gifts were specially prepared to show my gratitude. ”

When Fan Yu heard this, he was secretly refreshed, is it so good to be a royal prince? Receiving gifts is soft.

"Uncle Guo is too polite, some small things are not worth mentioning, why bother." Fan Yu said politely.

Zhan Zhao saw Fan Yu's cheerful smile on the side, and couldn't help but secretly cheat to himself, this little brother Fan was a little insincere.

"You and I are both imperial relatives, and we are usually excluded by the officials of the DPRK and China, if we don't help each other, what is the meaning of this imperial family." Although Cao Tong is not a few years older than Fan Yu, the identity of this uncle has been for a while, so he can naturally see it clearly.

When Fan Yu heard the other party say this, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then asked: "Just now, Master Pang also came to send a lot of furniture and utensils, could it be that he ......?"

"Exactly." Cao Tong nodded and said, "Master Pang is also an imperial prince, so naturally he wants to be closer to you." If the royal family is not like this, they will be attacked by the courtiers, and I am afraid that there will not even be anyone to lend a hand. ”

Fan Yu nodded and said, "I see, Master Pang gave me such a heavy gift, which made me feel uneasy. I was relieved that there were such reasons. However, since they are all royal relatives, why didn't Brother Cao greet Master Pang, isn't this a bit rude. ”

Cao Tong couldn't help waving his hand again and again: "When Master Hou asks this, I will tell you to listen." If it is an ordinary royal family, it is natural to say a few words of greeting. It's just that my sister is the queen of the official family, and the daughter of Taishi Pang is the concubine of the official family. There is some discord between the two sides, and it is inevitable that the meeting will be a little awkward, but there is no need to deliberately make friends. ”

At this time, Fan Yu completely understood that there was not only a relationship between the royal family to help each other, but also a competitive relationship. Fortunately, he is only the queen mother's righteous son, not the younger brother of a concubine, otherwise everyone would have become competitors.

Moreover, the righteous son, who is the biological mother of the official family, is also the object that the emperors like to befriend.

"It turns out that being a royal prince is not only rich, but also excluded by the courtiers, which I never expected. If I don't cause trouble, the courtiers won't attack me for no reason. "Fan Yu is most afraid of trouble, isn't it good to enjoy life by yourself, if someone has to make you uncomfortable, wouldn't it make people feel different.

Cao Tong nodded and sighed: "Although the imperial prince can also be an official, there are few officials who are in charge of the land, and there are even fewer generals in charge of the army. There is no need to attack you for no reason, unless you have really done something bad or wrong. Even if you make a small mistake, you will not escape the mouth, and it will definitely make you annoyed. Therefore, it is extremely important for my family to study in the Eight Princes' Mansion this time. lest he make trouble outside, but implicate the queen, I am afraid that I will give Mrs. Pang a chance. ”

Fan Yu heard it with a big head, there were really a lot of twists and turns, and he couldn't help but quickly wave his hand and said: "I'm still young, I can't figure out such complicated things." If no one makes a mistake, the royal family should support each other. If there is any discord between your Cao family and Master Pang's family, I won't care about it. ”

Cao Tong smiled slightly: "Such idle matters, naturally dare not ask the Hou Ye." I'm just chatting with Hou Ye, so that Hou Ye won't inadvertently be used by others. Not to mention this matter, the gift to Hou Fengye this time has not been presented, but I almost forgot about it. Come on, send the stuff over. ”

Immediately, Cao Yan's personal entourage ran out, and in a moment, several people carried the burden and the box, which was Fan Yu's favorite time to open the treasure.

A person who looked like a housekeeper, holding a gift list, came to the door of the main house and reported: "Uncle Cao Tong, the joy of Fan Yu's housewarming today, specially prepared 50 horses of silk, 50 horses of silk, 100 horses of various colors of silk, a three-foot blood coral, a jade side, a carriage, four horses of Qin Fengxi, 100 taels of gold, 1,000 taels of silver, 3,000 pieces of money, and 20 hectares of land outside Bianliang City." ”

"It's too heavy." Fan Yu was more and more surprised every time.

"Hou Ye has newly settled in Bianliang, of course I want to give a big gift." Cao Tong said with a smile: "It's not easy to live in Bianliang, if there is less money, Hou Ye is afraid that he won't even be able to invite a few people." Losing the face of the imperial family, the official family and the queen mother, we must blame our relatives for not helping. This is the right thing to do, and it's the same when someone else is replaced. ”

Good guy, as soon as Fan Yu settles the account, this Uncle Cao Guo is also very generous, compared to Master Pang, there are only a lot more. Is this the power of the imperial family, Fan Yu likes it so much.

handed over the matter of placing gifts to Wang Xiaoding, and Fan Yu and Cao Tong chatted.

From Cao Tong's mouth, Fan Yu has a preliminary understanding of Bianliang City, and he also has a general outline in his mind about the affairs of the government and the opposition.

The two were chatting, and they saw Wang Xiaoding running over again, "Master Hou, someone outside the door reported that the eighth king was visiting." ”

As soon as Fan Yu heard that it was the Eight Kings, he immediately got up.

Cao Tong also got up and walked out, and said with a smile: "The Eighth King has also arrived, it shouldn't be his own intention." It seems that both the official family and the Queen Mother know that the Hou Ye has moved to a new house, and this gift will not be less. Hou Ye is already an upstart in the capital, and he must learn not to be strange. ”

Fan Yu secretly said in his heart, what's not weird, you are showing off the relationship with Fula. If you don't have a good mother-in-law, I'm afraid that no one will care about what you are.

It's just that when he thinks of his mother, Fan Yu can't help but miss it a little. I don't know how my stepmother is doing in the palace, and the habit of eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, but someone has ever talked to her to relieve her boredom.

However, he said, "Where have I seen such a battle before, I am really a little afraid." ”

Cao Tong couldn't help laughing and shook his head, obviously feeling that Fan Yu had never seen the world.

When the two came to the door, they saw the Eight Kings waiting for them to come out.

"The kid is just a housewarming, and he doesn't want to work for the Eight Kings Chitose, I'm really scared." Fan Yu hurriedly bowed to the Eight Kings.

The eight kings waved their hands and said very casually: "What is a big ride, you and I are all royal relatives, so naturally we should come to congratulate you." If you don't come, it's rude. Moreover, I came from the palace. In addition to the small gift prepared by the king, the queen mother and the official family have other rewards. ”

When the gift list of the eight kings arrived, Fan Yu was a little numb. These royal relatives of the Great Song Dynasty are really rich, and the eighth king Chitose directly sent Fan Yu two grain shops, one east and one west, both of which are good locations.

The official family and the stepmother Empress Dowager Li sent it more simply, in addition to some jade, there were also a lot of silk and cloth, and thirty hectares of land were divided from the imperial village, which belonged to Fan Yu.

But in one day, Fan Yu's Anle Hou Mansion became a wealthy family.
