The eldest prince thought for a while, "Unless he knows, even if his father understands that he can't afford this house with his money, he won't blame him, why is this?" Ah, I see! Maybe this house was left by his wealthy ancestors, or maybe his ancestors were in business. Or maybe he married a lady from a well-to-do family, so he had enough money to buy a house. ”

Xiao Kiko snickered and ran to him, "It's not easy?" The slave went out to inquire, and knew that the eldest prince guessed accurately. ”

When it was time for dinner, Xiao Jizi really came back with the news, "This courtyard said that in the early years, an official in the river was raided and left behind, and the government confiscated and sold it, but no one could afford it." Until the emperor was coming this time, the local officials thought that this courtyard was the most suitable for receiving the emperor, but unfortunately it was an ownerless courtyard, which was not good to say. Therefore, the prefect of Hejian bought it at a low price, and it was all to welcome the royal driver, and no one would accuse him of abusing his power for personal gain. ”

"I see, then I guessed wrong."

The eldest prince waited for the news for a long time, and couldn't help but be a little frustrated, Su Youyi smiled and said: "The eldest prince can observe that the prefect of Hejian can't afford such a big mansion, which is already very powerful." The reason for those small things to be found out by the people below is that what you have to do is find the difference. ”

Xiao Jizi also said: "Yes, it's like if the prefect of Hejian really committed the crime of corruption, as soon as the eldest prince finds out this, and then sends a servant to investigate, won't he find out a big corrupt official?" ”

The eldest prince thoughtfully, "When I first came out of the palace, I was thinking about playing, and Ming'er's father must personally go outside to inspect, and when the time comes, I will follow and see, and I will definitely find a lot!" ”

This night, the eldest prince was full of interest and rested early, Su Youyi was worried that he recognized the bed and stayed by the couch for half the night, and did not return to his room until late at night.

When I washed up the next morning, I heard the eldest prince's unhappy shouting, "Why didn't my father send anyone to inform me, and he went to inspect the fields?" Then I will stay in this courtyard, what is the difference between staying in this courtyard and being in the palace? ”

Su Youyi was puzzled, first appeased the eldest prince, and then inquired carefully to find out the reason.

It turned out that the emperor had brought a few ministers out in micro-clothes before dawn, not only the eldest prince, but most of the ministers who came with him, the emperor did not bring them.

"Who did the emperor bring with him?"

Xiao Jizi said: "I heard that I only brought Prince Yong, Li Ge Lao, Zhou Ge Lao, oh, and Master Ji, the writer of the Hanlin Academy." ”

Su Youyi was stunned, "Master Ji? Is it Li Gelao's son-in-law, Ji Yu Shenji? ”

"yes."

The eldest prince was puzzled: "Aunt Su, do you know this Lord Ji?" ”

Su Youyi smiled, "I've heard of it, I heard that it's a celebrity in front of the emperor, and I'm a scout of Hualang." is the son-in-law of Li Ge Lao, and nine of the ten pavilions in the palace have talked about this Ji. ”

The eldest prince nodded, he was still young, and the emperor had not yet let the princes start to learn the court, and he did not have much impression of the ministers of the court.

Su Youyi said: "The eldest prince, the emperor is out on patrol this time, and he only brings so many people with him, just to hide people's eyes, how can it be convenient to bring a child?" But I think that since the emperor has put out such a big guard of honor, he will definitely not go out on patrol every day, and there will always be a time to take you out. ”

The eldest prince immediately smiled, "That's what I said, if my father doesn't take us out, can we ...... Hey. ”

Su Youyi: "Hehe...... No. ”

Just a few of them, the shrimp soldiers and crab generals, dare to take the eldest prince out, but anything happens is a capital crime.

Su Youyi has always been bold in front of the emperor, but she is by no means so big that in order to make the eldest prince happy, she pins the heads of herself and Shuya and others to the waistband of her trousers.

The eldest prince pouted, "Or...... Just walk around the garden. ”

"That's fine......"

As he was talking, he suddenly heard Shuya come in and say, "The eldest prince, the Marquis of Weiyuan asks to see you." ”

Su Youyi and Shuya didn't have much impression of this Weiyuan Marquis, and they didn't know what he was doing when he came to find the eldest prince.

Xiao Jizi has served by the eldest prince's side for a few years, and explained to Su Youyi: "Aunt Su, the old marquis of Weiyuan is the father of the former queen, that is, the maternal ancestor of our eldest prince. Now the position of the marquis has been taken by the prince, which is the current Weiyuan Marquis Jiangsu, who is the uncle of our eldest prince. ”

Su Youyi's eyebrows frowned slightly, she had hardly heard the news of the first queen's mother's family by the eldest prince's side for several months, and subconsciously thought that it was a family Taoist or an estranged relationship, but she didn't expect that the eldest prince's uncle was Weiyuan Hou.

This relative is huge, the position of the marquis is more than that of a first-class officer, and he is not like an ordinary marquis, but like a general with military merits.

Strange, such a powerful, well-connected and extremely close relative, why did Su Youyi never see someone from their family enter the palace to visit the eldest prince?

At this time, the emperor was not in the other courtyard, so he came over......

Su Youyi chuckled in her heart, feeling that something was not quite right, but the eldest prince was very excited, "Uncle is here?" Please come in! ”

The eldest prince lost his biological mother early, and he was very kind to the affairs of the former queen's mother's family, and he had a good impression of Jiang Su, an uncle who rarely met.

Su Youyi heard that he had agreed, so she had to tell Shuya to go down and prepare tea and snacks, and she quietly pulled Xiao Jizi to the side and asked.

"What's going on with this Wei Yuanhou? Why haven't I seen him come to see our eldest prince before? ”

Xiao Jizi said: "Hey, you can't blame Wei Yuanhou for this, you can only blame ......" He glanced around and lowered his voice, "The emperor doesn't like the little princes to have more contact with their relatives, not only our eldest prince, but also the second prince and the third prince are the same." Marquis Weiyuan wants to enter the palace to see our eldest prince, and he must be careful that the emperor is not happy. ”

According to Xiao Jizi's meaning, this Weiyuan Marquis has a loving heart for the eldest prince, but he does not dare to come to get close to the eldest prince often because of the emperor's anger.

Su Youyi nodded, "Then he came over today, presumably because he knew that the emperor was going out, so he came to see the eldest prince, right?" ”

came so early, it seemed that he was still very interested in the eldest prince, Su Youyi subconsciously regarded this Jiang Su as a good uncle, and Fang Cai's strange feeling also disappeared.

Xiao Jizi said: "It should be, didn't you see the eldest prince so happy?" Without further ado, let's go in and wait! ”

When the two entered, Jiang Su had just entered the door, and he was sitting with the eldest prince and the ministers and drinking tea.

The relationship between the uncle and nephew was not as affectionate as Su Youyi thought, probably because they rarely met, the eldest prince smiled happily, but he didn't know what to say.

Su Youyi took advantage of the snack to look at this Wei Yuanhou, a very imposing middle-aged man, and the style of the gate was faintly visible in his actions.
