Chapter Seventy-Eight: Rumors

The Qixiang Restaurant on Qianmen Street is the business of the president of the Beijing Chamber of Commerce. Although it is located in a prosperous area, it usually does not open the door to welcome guests, only recognize familiar faces - this is a high-end club specially used to entertain the second generation of officials in the capital.

No matter which time the emperor is, he is extremely disgusted with officials forming parties and colluding with officials and businessmen. Especially in this dynasty, the Jinyi Wei is very popular, and the eyes and ears of the Son of Heaven are all over the capital, and he can't wait to write down every word of the officials in private and report it, so not to mention cabinet ministers and ministerial-level senior officials, even ordinary five- and six-grade officials usually dare not walk around with each other.

But the sons of the officials' families are different, these teenagers are not within the scope of the eyes and ears, and they usually get together to eat and drink, and few people pay attention to them.

Recently, the capital has been very quiet. The emperor still did not go to court, and even such a big thing as Xiao Yicheng's escape gradually subsided because he came back by himself. For a few days, Xiao Yicheng acted as if nothing had happened, wandering around the capital as usual, attending various gatherings with ordinary gentlemen to pass the time.

If everything is the same as before, there are still some differences.

Today's game, it is Lin Shaoping, the second son of the Yin family of Shuntian Mansion, who is the east, and most of the officials who come are the children of officials who are about fifteen or sixteen years old, and there are about a dozen of them, all of whom are surrounding Xiao Yicheng to watch the excitement.

The second floor of the restaurant was originally a tea room. It is the Dragon Boat Festival, and in addition to the usual tea and pastries, a few beautiful four-cornered reed leaf dumplings have been added to the table. Now all the tables, chairs, cups and plates have been moved to the corner, freeing up a large and spacious space in the center for the skateboarder to show off his skills.

The young master in the capital has never been short of toys. All kinds of novel and interesting things in the world can always be given to the officials and young masters through various channels, and the flattering businessmen give priority to the officials and young masters to try it. But skateboarding is a real rarity.

The gadget with wheels under Xiao Yicheng's feet can be controlled freely, not only can he go straight and turn freely, but he can even jump and flip in the air, and all kinds of cool postures are simply handsome and blind to everyone's dog eyes.

After completing the last action in a dashing manner, Xiao Yicheng stood still, and clamped the skateboard under his armpit with a toe pick, and the crowd suddenly erupted in cheers like a fryer.

"Your Royal Highness is amazing!"

"What is this? It's so much fun, too! ”

"Where did it come from?"

"How much silver is this? I'd like to have one too! ”

"Tell me where to buy!"

……

Xiao Yicheng waved his hand proudly: "At present, there is only this one in the world, and no matter how much money you have, there is nowhere to buy it." ”

Everyone was disappointed: "Cut ......"

Xiao Yicheng said with a smile: "However, the boss is now in the capital and is planning to open a store, and it is estimated that it won't be long before you can buy the same model." ”

When everyone heard this, they regained their hope: "Really? Is your information accurate? ”

"Who's the boss? Call over and let my brothers meet you too! ”

"Less nonsense! Lend me a little bit to play first! ”

"Hey!"

Xiao Yicheng saw that everyone wanted to grab it, so he hurriedly protected the skateboard, pulled down his face and said, "I'm a lone product, don't break it for me!" ”

Where does everyone care about him, he will come up and rob him with all hands and feet. In the end, it was snatched away by a quick hand, but as soon as he stepped on it, he immediately fell to the ground, causing everyone to laugh.

These noble-born children of famous families are the most active and curious age, and at this time, they can't care about the embarrassment of their companions, so they just grab it and try it themselves. Don't look at Xiao Yicheng when he was playing just now, he looked at it simply, and when he really got to his hands, he found that it was not easy to control, so that brute force was useless, and he had to use skillful strength to master the balance, and if he was not careful, he would be thrown on his stomach.

This scene was similar to Xiao Yicheng's expectations, he stood aside with a gloating smile on his face, watching everyone look out of their foreign appearances.

Oh, the greatest pleasure of staying in the capital is probably the beautiful scenery in front of you.

At this moment, someone came to disturb his Yaxing, stepped forward and whispered: "His Royal Highness, take a step to speak." ”

Xiao Yicheng turned his face and saw that it was Wenjing, the son of the Shangshu family, who was speaking.

This man was the older of their meetings. I heard that he was born in the top three with the Jinshi, and he has no official position at present, so he is temporarily hanging in the Hanlin Academy as an ordinary clerical job.

Xiao Yicheng had seen him a few times at the party, and to be honest, he was not very familiar. Seeing that he looked like he had something to say, he left the crowd behind and followed him into the cubicle.

In the middle of the compartment was a square bronze ice jian, and I saw Lin Shaoping sitting in the center, and there were a few familiar faces sitting next to him. Seeing that Xiao Yicheng was invited, everyone hurriedly beckoned him to sit down:

"Your Highness, please take a seat! This time, everyone is together. ”

Xiao Yicheng walked among them and sat down: "What good things are hidden in such a mystery?" If you're ready to honor me, take it out quickly! ”

"Hehe, there's something really good!"

It was Qiu Rui, the youngest son of the president of the Chamber of Commerce, who spoke, and saw him reach out and lift the square lid of Bingjian, and put the wooden clip in, and it turned out to be a large string of bright red lychees.

"Yo! You've got something really good! Everyone sighed when they saw it: "I'm afraid it will take a lot of time for this thing to be transported from Lingnan to the capital, right?" ”

Qiu Rui said mysteriously: "It's 'a ride on the red dust concubine laughs, no one knows that it is a lychee'!" ”

Wen Jing also shook the paper fan and said with a smile: "I heard that the treasury is tight this year, and this thing is rare in the palace." ”

"You're right!"

Qiu Rui said: "Listen to my father, this year, the comprador of the Ministry of Internal Affairs gave lychees to the shell!" Thinking about it, the war in the northwest is a bottomless pit, seeing that the treasury is tight, and the household department can't come up with money, even the palace has to cut various expenses - I'm afraid the emperor's life this year will be difficult. ”

As he spoke, he cut the lychees and distributed them to everyone: "This is a rare thing that was transported into Beijing overnight by fast horses from the south. The emperor has no money and can't eat, but we can taste it. ”

Everyone nodded yes, Xiao Yicheng also took a string, peeled one and put it in his mouth, it was really sweet.

The topic gradually turned to the affairs of the palace.

"It is said that once the son of heaven was a courtier, this son of heaven is really a bit evil."

Wen Jing said: "Since the boycott of the dynasty, the emperor's temper has become more and more eccentric, and it is cloudy and sunny all day long, and no one can figure out which sentence is not good, he will turn his face, and it is really getting more and more difficult to do." ”

"yes."

Lin Shaoping also nodded and said, "Have you ever heard of an emperor beating a minister with a court rod?" If they don't agree with each other, they will send them to prison,...... Alas. ”

He was only halfway through his words, and he swallowed back the second half. Everyone knew that some things were not easy to say, so they could only be silent.

Wen Jing asked, "Have you heard that even the head of the household department was beaten?" ”

Everyone nodded.

"I also heard that I'm afraid that the post of head of the household department is going to be replaced."

The head of the household department is in charge of the treasury money and grain, and to put it bluntly, he is in charge of the emperor's money bag.

Qiu Rui flattened his mouth: "It's the same for anyone, anyway, you can't come up with money!" ”

The topic was a bit dull, and everyone peeled the lychees in their hands, too lazy to speak.

Xiao Yicheng sneered, and suddenly said, "When I entered the palace a few days ago, I encountered an interesting thing. Tell you about it? ”

Everyone's eyes immediately turned to him: "What happened to His Royal Highness the Prince?" ”

"Iron Fox, the leader of the Jinyi Guard, is the autumn concubine of the harem."

Xiao Yicheng looked at everyone's expressions with a smile, and saw that they couldn't understand the deeper meaning, so he continued: "Do you remember what the emperor was talking about the day before the first emperor died? ”

Everyone looked at each other.

"The Waste Prince."

Xiao Yicheng gave an answer directly without waiting for them to answer, and then said: "What a coincidence, the first emperor died that night. If I'm not mistaken, Iron Fox was still serving in Yulinwei at that time, right? It's unthinkable to be so close to the prince. As soon as the crown prince ascended the throne, she became the commander of the Jinyi Guard. ”

"That...... Don't dare to talk nonsense. ”

The crowd was shocked. There are no fools here, and they all know very well what he is hinting at - usurpation? This is a rumor worthy of the Nine Clans.

Xiao Yicheng shrugged: "Ahem." Nonsense, just listen to it. ”

He smiled seemingly nonchalantly.

After being silent for a long time, I heard someone whisper: "I seem to have heard of this, but I didn't expect it to be true." ”

"Rumors are actually eighty percent true."

Xiao Yicheng answered without pain, and then stopped talking.

He knew these people all too well.

Don't look at them as just a group of young men who don't have any real business, every word Xiao Yicheng says may reach the ears of the father behind them. Most of the rumors against the prince before were spread in this way, and this trick was really tried and tested.

Xiao Yicheng smiled and looked out the window while eating lychees. I accidentally saw a group of people slowly walking from the south, and the person at the head was really familiar to him-

Guan Xiaoduo!

"You're talking! I've also withdrawn a little beforehand! ”

Xiao Yicheng saw that it was them, so he immediately threw down a sentence casually, got up and went straight to the stairs.

As soon as he pushed open the door and glanced to the side again, he saw that half of the group of skateboarders had fallen to the ground, grinning and unable to stand up, so he smiled:

"When you've had enough, remember to send me home!"

As soon as everyone agreed, Xiao Yicheng had already pedaled downstairs and walked over to meet Guan Xiaoduo.

"Xiao Yicheng?!"

Guan Xiaoduo saw him at a glance: his outfit has changed, and he is almost unrecognizable! This noble son is dressed as a white robe, with a yellow satin robe on a white background, a gold crown on his head, and a large number of inlays on his head. The big Dongzhu is very noble, except for the old look of no one in his eyes, Guan Xiaoduo really can't recognize it.

Dao Meili turned her face when she heard this, and when she saw that Xiao Yicheng had arrived, she glared at her: "I want to call Your Highness!" ”

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Guan Xiaoduo stepped forward with a smile and saluted: "Your Highness is blessed!" ”

Xiao Yicheng waved his hand and said with a smile: "That's it!" I'm going to play with you these days! It's a pity that I can't get out of the city, but now I met it on the street, which is great! ”

Damn, that's too ...... Even if it is a Sven person like Xu Jin, he wants to swear very much at this moment. "Huh?"

Xiao Yichen shook his head and said, "Although this little girl looks shrewd, she doesn't look like a shallow eyelid. As for Tie Han, I still understand, and I'm not a greedy person. Speaking of this, Xiao Yichen couldn't help but think of the old things again. I still remember that Tie Han was still a taciturn seventeen boy when he first arrived in the East Palace, and in the blink of an eye, ten years have passed, and he has grown taller and stronger, but his temperament has not changed much, and his heart and eyes don't seem to have grown much.

Moreover, the anger on her body is inevitably too heavy. If it is to achieve the goal and clear the obstacles, her methods are always too ruthless, even to her brothers and sisters. Thinking of this, Tie Han couldn't help but sigh, and subconsciously touched the newly added knife wound on his abdomen - this was not the first time he had been stabbed by Iron Fox, and I am afraid it would not be the last.
