When Xiao Fan walked out of the Chen Mansion, his mood was also heavy.

Is it wrong to refuse marriage? No! That's right! There may be many things in life that you need to make concessions and compromises, but you don't include feelings, which are the weakest and most holy corners of a person's heart, and any concessions and compromises are blasphemy against it.

It has been more than two months since he came to the Ming Dynasty, and he has almost adapted to the life of the Ming Dynasty, Xiao Fan feels that he has completely integrated himself into this unfamiliar environment. So, is it time to leave the Chen family?

To be honest, Xiao Fan is still grateful to the Chen family, after all, Chen Siliu has raised himself for four years, for Xiao Fan, the Chen family is the master who shelters him, and it is the Yue family with the status of in-laws, but unfortunately, the Chen family is not his real home.

But what should I do after leaving the Chen family? It may not be difficult to ask Zhu Yunwen or King Yan for an official, but now is not a good time to be an official.

Xiao Fan was confused, everything is planned and then done, after leaving the Chen family, he finally has to find a livelihood, Xiao Fan thought about it very much, forget it, don't want to, secretly calculated, in the past two months, he has saved a lot of silver, including the ten taels of silver that his predecessor has saved for many years, and the more than forty taels of silver that he robbed from him by knocking Huang Yanei's stuffy stick, and after the opening of the Drunken Immortal Building, as the shopkeeper, he embezzled more than 20 taels of silver openly and secretly, adding up to more than 70 taels of silver in his total assets now.

More than seventy taels, it doesn't look like much, but in this era, it is equivalent to a middle-class property. If you have money in your hands, you won't panic in your heart, and you won't starve to death no matter what you do.

After thinking about it, Xiao Fan smiled with satisfaction. He still understands the truth that wealth is not exposed, he decided that before leaving the Chen family, he should hide the more than seventy taels of silver, and then point to it to live, it is best to hide it in his residence in the Chen Mansion, when he leaves the Chen family one day, he will take the silver and leave, which is convenient and chic.

The magnificent Ming Dynasty is beckoning to him, Xiao Fan is not a thing in the pool, can the nest of the bird's bird keep the bird?

************************************

When Xiao Fan returned to the Drunken Immortal Tower, it was already close to dusk.

The atmosphere of the Drunken Immortal Building is a bit strange. The lobby, which was supposed to be full, was empty. Outside, there were some officials of the county government standing in twos and threes, holding swords and iron rulers at their waists, and whoever dared to approach would bombard them.

Two samurai in civilian clothes wore long knives at their waists, standing solemnly at the gate, looking around with a cold expression, their eyes were vigilant like two loyal hounds, seeing Xiao Fan enter the door, the two of them relaxed their guarded expressions slightly, and bowed to him slightly.

Lao Cai, Gouzi and other shop guys stood at the top of the stairs with a panicked expression, looking respectful and awe-inspiring.

Xiao Fan frowned, stepped forward and asked Lao Cai, "The guest was kicked out again?" ”

Old Cai Se shrank for a moment and whispered: "There are two fierce gods standing at the door, who dares to enter......

"These two people are not so scary, why do I think you are like you are being held hostage by bandits......"

Lao Cai pointed upstairs mysteriously and whispered, "That ...... Your Royal Highness, I'm here again today, and I'm waiting for you upstairs at the Accoque......"

At the table at the staircase of the lobby, Huang Zhixian and Cao Xiancheng stood motionless with a half-bowed body respectfully, and when they saw Xiao Fan enter the door, Huang Zhixian snorted with a face that was not a face and a nose, and his eyes were so malicious that they could kill people.

Cao Yi glanced at Xiao Fan with a smile, the meaning in his eyes was very vague, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or resentful.

Xiao Fan sighed, since Zhu Yunwen's honor guard came to Jiangpu to demonstrate once, he has come three or four times in succession, every time he travels in micro-clothes, he comes to Zuixianlou to find him, one is from a noble royal family, the other is from a civilian business, the two really have nothing in common, Xiao Fan himself is also cheap, idle and bored to tell him a story of Journey to the West, now it's okay, Zhu Yunwen listened to the eyebrows and danced, as if he was addicted to drugs, every time he said that he would go out of Beijing in micro-clothes, ride a fast horse for more than half an hour, under the escort of the Jinyi pro-army, The people who hugged him entered the Drunken Immortal Building to listen to his updates, and he returned two chapters a day, and he was not happy if he was missing. It's okay to listen to the story, but he doesn't vote for recommendation......

But this Royal Highness the grandson will pick the time, every time he comes, it is dusk, the peak period of the drunken fairy building, as soon as the grandson comes, the drunken fairy building is unlucky, the brocade soldiers unceremoniously cleared the field, the guests are clean, the two bigwigs of the county government must follow the side of the car, the perimeter guard is responsible for the county officials, and the brocade soldiers will take over, this kind of vigilance intensity, it can be said that the needle can not be inserted, and the water can not be splashed.

As for the guests who are eating, of course, it is even more impossible to get in.

Xiao Fan really wants to slap himself in the mouth, it's really cheap! If you are full, tell him what story, tell the story, tell the story, pick a short story, I just picked a book of Journey to the West......

If this continues, Tang Seng and his apprentices have not yet arrived at Leiyin Temple, and Zuixianlou is estimated to have to go bankrupt first......

The business of dozens of taels of silver in an hour can't be delayed by His Royal Highness the grandson who doesn't understand the world, Chen Siliu doesn't care if he makes money or not, what he is worried about is that the drunken immortal building has no income, how can he be corrupt.

Xiao Fan nodded and smiled at Cao Yi, ignoring Huang Zhixian's angry eyes, lifted the hem of his shirt and waited upstairs to meet His Royal Highness Taisun.

As soon as I took a step, someone from upstairs came down.

Zhu Yunwen was wearing a pale cyan silk gown, playing with a jade pendant hanging from his waist, and with an indifferent smile, he slowly walked downstairs.

Xiao Fan hurriedly took two steps back, lifted his hem, knelt down and said loudly: "Grass people Xiao Fan, meet His Royal Highness Taisun." ”

Zhu Yunwen still smiled warmly and kindly, waved his hand very casually, and said, "You get up, I've known you for so long, don't be too polite." ”

While speaking, Zhu Yunwen had already walked downstairs, then got up with Xiao Fan in his arms, and hurriedly pulled Xiao Fan to a table, urging: "Last time you said that the monkey made a big fuss about the Queen Mother's peach club, and later stole Taishang Laojun's elixir, hehe, that monkey is really bold, what about later?" What happened? Quickly move on......"

Xiao Fan glanced at him with a smile, the more times they met, Xiao Fan's fear of him gradually faded, in fact, people in the royal family are also the same as ordinary people, there are joys, sorrows, sorrows, birth, old age, sickness and death, some people have strong surnames, and some people have weak surnames.

Except for the time when Zhu Yunwen used the guard of honor to scare Xiao Fan, Xiao Fan really didn't have much fear of Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Yunwen really should review himself about this matter, he didn't have any frame in front of Xiao Fan, he acted like a very simple and innocent child, he was very curious about everything, and he was even more interested in some topics about the folk. It's no wonder that Xiao Fan is not afraid of him,—— His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun who was beaten by Xiao Fan and cried, can you expect Xiao Fan to be afraid of him?

Facing Zhu Yunwen's longing eyes, Xiao Fan said slowly: "That monkey ......"

"What happened to the monkey?" Zhu Yunwen behaved more anxiously than a monkey.

"Ahem, that monkey died later......" Xiao Fan expressed his grief as if he had lost a loved one.

"Huh? Die...... He's dead? Zhu Yunwen's eyes were straight, and his face was full of regret: "How could it die?" ”

Xiao Fan said expressionlessly: "It committed suicide and died." ”

"Self-...... Commit suicide? ”

"After stealing the elixir, it went down to open a restaurant......

Zhu Yunwen was so puzzled that he grabbed his hair: "Monkey...... Open a restaurant? ”

Xiao Fan nodded matter-of-factly: "Yes!" Open a restaurant! Later, there was no business to the door, the restaurant went bankrupt and closed down, and the monkey owed a lot of wages to the employees, and in desperation, he jumped off the building and committed suicide......"

"For ...... Why is there no business coming to the door? ”

Xiao Fan sighed solemnly: "Because the Jinyi pro-army always closes the door and clears the venue, the guests don't dare to come to the door......"

"Smack!" Zhu Yunwen was so angry that he slapped the table fiercely, and said angrily: "Who did the monkey provoke?" This brocade-clothed pro-army is so hateful! ”

Xiao Fan nodded vigorously and agreed: "That's it!" Your Highness summed it up right! Who did the monkey provoke when he opened a restaurant? ”

Zhu Yunwen is not a fool, he smacked his mouth a few times, and immediately came back to his senses, glaring at Xiao Fan dissatisfied: "Are you scolding me around the corner?" ”

"Grass People...... Terrified! ”

Zhu Yunwen showed a childlike stubborn look, and snorted: "I don't care, I want to listen to the story of the monkey, you are not allowed to fool me anymore, you want to be exciting, the plot must be ups and downs, I will withdraw the Jinyi pro-army, we only occupy one Accord upstairs, this is always okay, right?" ”

Xiao Fan smiled and arched his hand: "Your Highness is wise." ”

***************************************

The drunken immortal building opened the curfew, Xiao Fan led Zhu Yunwen to the third floor, Huang Zhixian and Cao Yi continued to wait in the lobby, and the Jinyi pro-army blocked the third floor, and the defense was still tight.

The decoration of the Accord is very high-grade, each pavilion is carefully arranged by Xiao Fan, landscape, bonsai, ink painting, simple but elegant, in order to strive for a "elegant" word, Xiao Fan even placed two ancient guqins on the platform on the east side of the wall of the pavilion, the guqin sycamore is the surface, the whole body is dark purple lacquer, the blood-colored sunset shines through the window lattice, the guqin exudes a clear oil light, as if telling a thick and vicissitudes of history.

As soon as Zhu Yunwen entered the door, he became interested in these two guqins, looked at them with great interest for a while, turned his head to Xiao Fan and said, "Is this a real guqin?" Song Dynasty or Tang Dynasty? ”

Xiao Fan coughed uncomfortably: "The ...... of this dynasty"

Zhu Yunwen said in disbelief: "This dynasty's? How can it be? These two instruments are two hundred years old......"

Xiao Fan sighed in his heart, what a simple young man, my drunken immortal building is a place to eat, and it is not for selling cultural relics, it is just a few objects that are elegant, how can it be possible to spend a lot of money to buy real products? As far as Zhu Yunwen's eyesight is concerned, he put it in his previous life, and went to Yanjing Panjiayuan to walk around, and he had to lose his pants.

"Are these two pianos really from this dynasty?" Zhu Yunwen still doesn't want to believe that these two guqins are fakes.

Xiao Fan said with a smile: "This is the handwriting of the shopkeeper of Molinxuan Zhou in this county, the retail price is two taels of silver, and the wholesale price is one or two or five yuan......

Zhu Yunwen: "............"

Zhu Yunwen suddenly became excited, found a chair and sat down, waved his hand and drove out the Jinyi pro-army who was serving, and only he and Xiao Fan were left in the empty pavilion.

Everyone went out, and Zhu Yunwen's handsome face suddenly fell,

He looked widowed, his eyebrows seemed to be full of deep sorrow, and after glancing at Xiao Fan, Zhu Yunwen said with a rather lonely expression: "Xiao Fan, let's not tell stories today, I am really a little bored in my heart, and I can't raise my interest." ”

Of course, Xiao Fan was happy, so he hurriedly said, "Yes." ”

Zhu Yunwen sighed and said: "Today, Mr. Huang told me something, this matter made me very unhappy, but I don't know what to do, I can't tell my imperial grandfather about this matter, I'm afraid he will be angry, and I don't have any friends to talk to in the East Palace......"

Raising his eyes to look at Xiao Fan, Zhu Yunwen had a little longing in his eyes.

"Xiao Fan, you are a civilian, and you have nothing to do with the government, I will tell you about this unhappy thing, you forgot about it after hearing it, and it is comfortable for me to say it, how about it?"

Xiao Fan said: "The grass people listen to ......"

Zhu Yunwen's handsome face suddenly showed a happy look, and even his eyes were much more vivid, I don't know if he was happy because he could tell his heart, or because he had a friend who could listen to him.

"Actually...... Mr. Huang said that this is also a good intention, he is the minister of the humerus left to me by the emperor's grandfather, and I can still trust his loyalty. ”

"Dare to ask Your Highness, who is this Mr. Huang?"

"Mr. Huang, you don't even know? Oh, you are a common person, it is reasonable not to know, Mr. Huang's name is Huang Zicheng, he is the Tanhua of the palace test in the eighteenth year of Hongwu, when he was the Hanlin Revision, the Chunfang Lecture and Reading Official, and the East Palace. He taught me all my schoolwork, and he was my teacher, so I was called Mr. ”

Xiao Fan nodded, Huang Zicheng, this is a very famous person, after Zhu Yunwen ascended the throne, this person became the vanguard of the strategy of cutting the domain, his knowledge is extremely profound, but unfortunately his IQ is inversely proportional to his knowledge, Zhu Yunwen was defeated by King Yan, so that King Yan invaded Nanjing, Zhu Yunwen lost the country, and the defeat of Jianwen has a great relationship with this Huang Zicheng.

"Your Highness, what did Mr. Huang tell you?"

Zhu Yunwen sighed and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Let me make a simple analogy...... For example, there is a very large family, the patriarch is my grandfather, he loves me very much, because of love, he even handed over the entire family business to me, but my grandfather did not know, this move made my elders and uncles very unhappy, because the inheritance of the family business, since ancient times, the father passed on to the son, and the son passed on to the son, and there are few ancestors and grandchildren, and the grandfather directly crossed my uncles and passed the family business to me, and the uncles did not say it, and there was still a mustard in their hearts......"

Xiao Fan chuckled in his heart, what should happen will happen after all, it seems that Zhu Yunwen and Huang Zicheng have realized the necessary surname of the feudal domain, this topic is really very serious, and I can't tell anyone, including Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yunwen continued: "...... Now my grandfather is still alive, even if the uncles have a big complaint in their hearts, they dare not say it, Mr. Huang told me, I am afraid that once my grandfather is gone, the uncles will not be able to hold back, and seek to seize the family business that should belong to me, at that time, I was young, whether it was fame or generation, I was not the opponent of the uncles, the minister was strong and the king was weak, and the omen of the country was ......"

Speaking of this, Zhu Yunwen sighed deeply, and his brows squeezed into a Sichuan character.

Xiao Fan was silent, whether it was his identity or position, he couldn't say anything, this is politics, bloody politics, what can he say? If he is not careful, he may put his life into it, but now he has not taken refuge in Zhu Yunwen, and he has no position to give advice to him at all.

The two were relatively speechless, and after a long time, Zhu Yunwen raised his head, stared at Xiao Fan, and said, "What do you say?" ”

"Huh? This one...... The story of His Royal Highness is much more vivid than the grass people's journey to the west, and the grass people seem to see the magnificent court ......"

"You talk less nonsense! Let me ask you, what do you say, there are only the two of us here, and the law does not spread the six ears, what are you afraid of! ”

Xiao Fan thought for a long time, and then hesitated to speak: "Your Highness's uncles are plotting to seize the family property, this kind of behavior is very despicable......

"Get to the point!"

Xiao Fan glanced at Zhu Yunwen in embarrassment, and said tentatively: "Or...... Think of a way to trick His Highness's uncles into the Jingshi, make them line up to gather, and then His Highness will strangle them one by one......"

Zhu Yunwen tilted his head and thought for a moment, and then nodded solemnly: "Yes, it's a good way...... You're going to help me strangle them? ”

Xiao Fan was shocked: "Na...... Nani? Your Highness, it's none of my business......"
