Chapter Thirty-Six: The Old Things Are Drifting Away, and the Years Are Empty
On this day, the prince was reading the excerpts in the study, and Xue Ke checked the number of winter clothes and the damage rate of weapons reported by the Ministry of War on several cases on the side. Now that the prince is in charge of the military department in the six departments of the court, it is inevitable that some affairs are important and cumbersome. Xue Ke started from these and slowly became familiar with them. Through these papers, you can also smell the smoke of gunpowder on the battlefield and the involvement behind a battle. Xue Ke couldn't help but stop writing, thinking about the situation when his father was in the Western Regions.
Xing'er came in and whispered in the prince's ear.
Now that the prince's deliberations are in front of Xue Ke, Xing'er has fewer such reports, and he generally does not hide it from Xue Ke. It's just that this time the prince didn't say anything after hearing it, but asked Xue Ke to go back to Hupu Yuan first.
When the prince arrived at the living room, he saw a person standing in the hall, wearing a white embroidered gold five-clawed python robe, with gentle eyebrows and eyes but also a majesty, when he heard the voice, he turned his head, bowed and saluted: "I have seen the prince." ”
The prince nodded in response and said, "Why did the third brother have time to come over today?" ”
King Qin said loudly: "Some time ago, there were rumors that the father often said that the brothers are united, and the profits are broken, and the younger brother knows that the elder brother will not be upset, but he is afraid that someone will take advantage of this to make trouble, so he wants to come to visit the elder brother, and he also blocked the mouth of the villain." ”
King Qin came for the turmoil caused by the tea room. The most important thing for the royal family is dignity and face, and now the most popular gossip in the capital is the two dragons competing for pearls, in addition to the teahouse does not dare to tell stories publicly, it is not an exaggeration to say that even the coolies at the dock have to ask "who is the girl of the Yang family to be married".
The prince knew in his heart that the king of Qin was just here to respond to the Ninety-Five Emperor in the Forbidden City and the people outside the Forbidden City.
Of course, this tea was meant to be a send-off, but King Qin just didn't see it, and asked with a smile: "I don't know if Miss Tang is okay after the tea room that day?" ”
The prince sneered in his heart, this is the purpose of your coming, but he said: "That day is not the concubine of my East Palace, she relied on me to spoil her a little more on weekdays, offended Miss Yang, and after I came back, I have severely punished her, the third brother should also rest assured that he is a brother, I have always been a person with clear rewards and punishments, and I will not favor my concubine." ”
King Qin smiled forcefully on his face: "Brother is serious. That day, Yang's reckless words annoyed Miss Tang, and today I am here to make amends on behalf of Yang. As he spoke, he took out a brocade box from his sleeve and said, "This is a meager gift, please hand it over to Miss Tang to apologize." ”
The prince didn't say anything, and served tea again with a calm face.
King Qin put the brocade box aside and got up to say goodbye.
Xing'er came up, opened the brocade box, and there was a blessing doll carved from agarwood inside, which was very vivid in her eyebrows, Xing'er cautiously asked tentatively: "The slave sent over?" ”
Seeing the eyes of the prince who was about to kill, he hurriedly changed his words: "The slave will be sent to the kitchen to light the fire, and you just eat agarwood roast duck at night." ”
The prince was noncommittal, and when he saw Xing'er's back turning around, his heart suddenly moved, and he called again: "Come back." ”
Xing'er ran over, lamenting and admiring his master for being a righteous gentleman and not deceiving people in the dark room, only to hear the prince's calm voice sound: "You go to the kitchen and order at the same time, Ming'er will send Miss Tang a silver silk shou noodle over." ”
