The next day, as soon as Zhao Zhixun arrived in the palace, many courtiers stood up to intercede for the prince, and the collection of taxes at the end of the year was the most important errand of the year.

In previous years, this errand was handed over to the crown prince. Therefore, the prince is quite dignified among the people. But this year, if it is handed over to the second prince like this, let him intervene, the prince's reputation will naturally be damaged, and the ministers around him will definitely not do it.

Zhao Zhixun smiled and looked at those courtiers who were extremely loud, "My lords, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has just done such a scandalous thing that ruined the reputation of the royal family, and you let him go to the people to establish his authority on the back foot, do you want to help him or harm him?" ”

Although he smiled, there was a chill in his eyes, and those courtiers were immediately silenced, and no one dared to speak for the prince again.

King Zhou Wen was quite a headache, and when he saw that there was no argument, his brows were slightly soothed, he was right to favor the prince, but now that the prince made such an ugly thing and asked him to do this errand, his partiality was too obvious.

In the early dynasty, the second prince took over the errand of collecting taxes at the end of the year.

But now, Chu Wunian has a headache.

In front of her, there was a graceful young lady standing in front of her, wearing a purple silk and emerald skirt, and a soft wool brocade cloak on the outside, and the jade bead hairpin on the bun was shining in the sun.

Those watery apricot eyes stared at Chu Wunian for half an hour, "When did you come to serve Brother Zhenglang?" Why haven't I seen you before? ”

The little slave in front of him was born with fine skin and tender flesh, and his complexion was so fair that Lin Chuyin was jealous, and a sense of crisis arose.

Calling Zhao Zhixun's words, it seems that this delicate and squeamish young lady has a lot to do with him.

Chu Wunian shook his hands and calmly replied to her, "The slave was rescued by the prince from the hunting ground, and he stayed in front of him to serve half a month ago." ”

"The hunting ground? Why did the prince come to your rescue? Lin Chuyin's face suddenly tensed, Zhao Zhixun has never been a nosy person, and Lin Chuyin also knew about the rumors that he had a habit of breaking his sleeves, she didn't believe it all the time, but seeing Chu Wunian, she was suddenly a little unsure, and her thin eyebrows were twisted.

"The slave doesn't know that the master's mind is not something that can be guessed." She was born in the Youting, she is just a little slave girl, as the plaything of the palace nobles, what else can Zhao Zhixun save her for, it's just a whim.

Lin Chuyin gritted his teeth, and his apricot eyes immediately became a little displeased.

Quezhi, who was serving beside her, stepped forward and scolded Chu Wunian sharply, "My young lady asked you something, you should have knelt down to answer, and you dare to pestle like this?" ”

"The prince said that the slave only needs to salute him alone." Chu Wunian raised his head, his gaze was level with her, and there was no trace of cowardice in his eyes.

Lin Chuyin became more and more bored, where did he get the confidence to confront her, could it be that he had already been favored by Zhao Zhixun?

Thinking that Zhao Zhixun would rather pamper an attendant than stay with her for a moment longer, Lin Chuyin cried out with a "wow", his face was full of grievances.

“......”

Chu Wunian stared at her, his eyes half-shining.

"Why is it so noisy in there?" Zhao Zhixun, who came back from the morning court, frowned slightly, as if he heard the sound of a woman crying in the courtyard.

Yutang understood, and immediately pulled up his short legs and ran forward a few steps, and after a while, he ran back to him, with cold sweat on his face, "It's Miss Lin Jia." ”

Lin Chuyin cried in his yard? Zhao Zhixun quickened his pace and walked towards the courtyard.

As soon as he entered, he saw Chu Wunian who was in front of Lin Chuyin, blinking his thick eyelashes, looking at Lin Chuyin with a puzzled face.

It seems that she is angry.

Quezhi had sharp eyes, and when he saw Zhao Zhixun, he hurriedly pulled Lin Chuyin's sleeve, "Miss, the prince is back." ”

Lin Chuyin raised his head and cried so much that the pear blossoms brought rain, miserable and miserable, which made people feel pity.

"Brother Zhenglang, you slave is too ignorant of the rules, you quickly replace him and replace him with someone to serve by your side."

She ran forward and grabbed Zhao Zhixun's arm and coquettishly.

It's a pity that Zhao Zhixun didn't eat her set, he smiled slightly, took her hand down, and beckoned to Chu Wunian, "Come here." ”

Chu Wunian let go of his fingers that were twisted together, pursed his lips and walked towards him.

Suddenly, the light above his head was obscured, and the next moment his waist was imprisoned by a pair of large hands, and the tip of his nose jumped into a burst of geraniums.

She raised her head in a panic, only to see Zhao Zhixun slightly hook the corners of her lips and look at Lin Chuyin, "Miss Lin, this is the Qilin Courtyard, not your Dingguo Mansion, you seem to have gone to the wrong place, right?" ”

That good-looking skin is exquisite, just looking at her with a smile, and her hands are hugging someone else's waist.

Lin Chuyin opened her mouth, her apricot eyes widened, "Brother Zhenglang, you..." she swallowed the saliva in her throat, and finally cried out again, covered her sleeves, covered her face and ran out.

Finally cleared, Zhao Zhixun pushed Chu Wunian away.

"What is this doing, Lord Wang?"

Behind him, a questioning voice suddenly came.

Zhao Zhixun turned his head and saw the anger on Chu Wunian's face, rubbing out, his handsome eyebrows raised slightly, "What else can you do, drive people away." ”

Chu Wunian clasped his hands, "The slave doesn't act as a shield between you and Miss Lin. ”

The raised eyebrows slowly smoothed out, Zhao Zhixun paced in front of her, circled, and smiled in his eyes, "It seems that you should be familiar with the rules in the Qilin Courtyard." ”

Yutang, who was standing on the side, tensed up and broke out in a cold sweat.
