Tang Yao followed Wei Chichenfeng's instructions and set up a reclining chair, a pot of tea, and a few plates of snacks in the courtyard of the Hou Mansion. Yu Chi Chenfeng leaned on the chaise longue, his lips in the sun looked pale and bloodless, Tang Yao remembered that he had injuries on his body, so he took a cloak and put it on for him.

Tang Yao poured two cups of tea for the two, one of which was handed to Yu Chichenfeng, "Why hasn't the prince come yet?" ”

Yu Chi Chenfeng took the teacup she handed over and smiled lightly, "In your opinion, where do you think he is now?" ”

When I remembered that when I went to the prince's mansion to steal things, this prince was still sleeping in the house!

“..... You won't still sleep at home! Tang Yao thought so, she didn't have much expectations for the prince.

Wei Chichen's face was unwavering, and he asked, "Miss Tang wants to make a bet with me?" ”

Tang Yao said, "Bet on what?" ”

"Just bet on whether the prince will come!" Wei Chichenfeng was obviously in poor spirits, his eyes were shallow and light, but he had a vague sense of confidence.

Tang Yao became interested for a while, and clapped his hands directly, "Bet, bet, if you lose, little marquis, you will double it on the basis of five thousand taels of silver!" ”

Wei Chichenfeng looked at her with a slightly puzzled look, "You are very short of money?" ”

If she honestly says that she is short of money, I don't know if the little marquis will despise her! But in fact, she is short of money! Not only is she short of money, she lacks heart, and most importantly, she lacks love! Thinking of this, Tang Yao didn't hide it, "It's really a bit tight lately. ”

Now she is not alone, the Tang Mansion needs her to support the family, if it is not enough to rely on the court's little money. Fortunately, there is a salary from Wei Chichenfeng on weekdays to maintain, and the food and clothing of the Tang family, including Lingxuan and Yang Bo moving in the future, this cost is not small.

Yu Chi Chenfeng put down the teacup in his hand, and his lips outlined a beautiful arc, "If you win the bet, this marquis will be as you wish, but what if you lose?" ”

Lost... If she loses, she loses, she lives in Qiyun Kingdom, she has no money and no family background, how can she drop! Immediately, Tang Yao gritted his teeth and fought for the double of the five thousand taels, "Little Marquis, tell me your request." ”

He didn't say anything for a long time, but his slender fingertips tapped lightly on the rim of the cup. I don't know why Tang Yao always has an illusion, as if she has a feeling of being on a thief ship. So after he tapped three times in a row, Wei Chi Chenfeng slowly opened his mouth, "That's it, if you win, five thousand taels of Hou Ye will give you three times, but if you lose, how about extending the deadline for me to do things for three years later?" ”

Extended for three years? Isn't that like a deed of sale? Tang Yao muttered in her heart, originally she was doing things for Wei Chichenfeng now, if this period was extended for another three years.... What's the benefit? The three-year period is not long, but it is not short, and who knows what will happen in the middle...

But five thousand two or three times? Not double, but triple! How could this evil capitalist be so rich! The cost of three times is not an ordinary small amount, and the cost of three times is equivalent to three years.... Tang Yao, who was a little unbalanced at first, slowly merged the two, and then she... It's a very undisciplined compromise.

Tang Yao's face was cloudy and sunny for a while, and it was estimated that she struggled for a while before she weakly made a small request, "I can be regarded as promising you, Little Marquis, but a big boss like you can't say it without evidence, you must establish a word, just like an employment contract, at least there is a guarantee." ”

"Employment... Contract? Wei Chi Chenfeng silently recited these four words, obviously not understanding the meaning of these words.

Thinking that Yu Chichenfeng is an ancient, so she doesn't understand these terms, but she can also understand them. So Tang Yao was about to give him a good explanation, when Yin Guang suddenly walked in briskly from outside the pavilion and whispered in Yu Chichenfeng's ear, "Master, as you expected, the prince is here." ”

Wei Chichen didn't squint, and bowed slightly, "Well, please let him in." ”

Tang Yao was dumbfounded... This... Is this the beginning? And then without the process, she already loses? It won't be so declining, her Tang Yao's reputation in this life was actually planted on the body of a dignified little marquis, it really is.... The three times the five thousand taels haven't arrived yet, so you let yourself lose three years of time first?

She really felt like she wanted to cry without tears.

It is estimated that Tang Yao's expression is too tragic, Wei Chichenfeng kindly refilled a cup of tea for her, and then said lightly, "I won't lose you, the three-year extension is established, and this three times the five thousand taels, this marquis will also give it to you, but not all at once." ”

Hearing this, Tang Yao immediately came to his senses, "Then do you mean to pay in installments?" Haha, yes, absolutely yes, let alone three years, even if I do it in five years! ”

Divide what? He raised his eyebrows slightly, it was the first time he had heard such a novel word.

"Master Hou, I heard that you haven't been in good health recently, so why don't you tell me." Li Siyang was dressed in blue, and stepped into the pavilion in a sassy manner.

Tang Yao hurriedly got up, lowered his hand to Li Siyang and said respectfully, "Weichen Tang Ziyao has seen His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

Li Siyang's gaze swept over Tang Yao's body, and an unknown luster flashed under his somewhat gloomy eyes, "Lord Tang hasn't been to the early dynasty for a long time, this prince heard that Lord Tang was ordered to do things, why did he have to stay in the Hou Mansion today?" ”

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, Weichen came back from errands, and heard that the Hou Ye was unwell, so he came to visit." Li Siyang's tone was not good, Tang Yao was not a fool, and he would not fail to hear the irony in his words. It is very clear that this prince is saying, Tang Ziyao, you are an official of the imperial court, since you are acting on orders, you should enter the palace to resume your life after the matter is done, and you should not stay in the Hou Mansion, this is disrespectful!

"Lord Tang cares about the Marquis of Wei Chi, and he is worthy of being the first scholar he introduced."

"The prince has won the award."

"Ahem.. Ziyao must not be rude! Yu Chichenfeng waved his hand to let Tang Yao retreat. Don't fight with the prince until the last resort, Tang Yao has always kept this in mind, so since Yu Chi Chenfeng has spoken, she will take advantage of his words to retreat.

"Yes."

Li Siyang didn't care about the attitude of such a small character as Tang Yao, he just smiled at Tang Yao and said, "Lord Tang doesn't need to be so polite, sit down." ”

"....." Tang Yao didn't want to sit, what she thought about was whether she could let her go first, but with such careful thinking, others might not be able to understand it, but Wei Chichenfeng was different.

"Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has asked you to sit, what are you still standing there stupidly for?" Yu Chi Chenfeng glanced at Tang Yao lightly, and then turned his gaze to Li Siyang, "Thank you for your concern, Your Royal Highness the Prince, Chenfeng is just a little cold, and it is not serious." ”

The corners of Tang Yao's mouth twitched, and he could only bite the bullet and find a place in the corner of the pavilion to sit down.

"Cold? Marquis Yuchi, you haven't been in good health since you were a child, you must take care of yourself! If the father and emperor know, he will definitely have to punish the subordinates of the Hou Mansion who are not taking good care of him. Li Siyang walked to the seat where Tang Yao was sitting before and sat down, with a kind look that cared about people very much, but Tang Yao trembled in his heart.

"Thank you for your concern." Yu Chi Chenfeng also looked at the gentle gaze, and said to the hidden light behind him, "Hidden light, go and serve good tea to His Highness." ”

"Yes, my subordinates will go."

After the hidden light left, Li Siyang completely ignored Tang Yao's presence and ran directly to the topic, "A major event happened in the palace last night, I don't know if the Hou Ye has heard of it?" ”

"Oh? What's the matter? Yu Chi Chenfeng asked suspiciously.

"There are assassins in the palace!"
