was scolded by Wang Yu'er for blocking the main entrance of the palace for a long time, the prince is still a perfect image of a mature man, and has never said a cruel word to the young girl after talking with Fan Xian so far. You must know that although the other party is the daughter of the governor of Yanjing, the eldest prince is an authentic prince, and the gap between his identities can completely allow him not to think too much, but he still tries to maintain a peaceful mind.

For example, after hearing Fan Xian's words, he didn't follow to reprimand the girl bastard, but just frowned and said, "Who knows what you are doing with her as a student?"

"I don't believe you wouldn't have guessed. Fan Xian said with a smile: "Of course, I am worried that after the palace already has a tigress, there will be another cheetah." If I can teach this young lady of the Wang family to be knowledgeable and polite, and the rules are beneficial, what are you afraid of if you bring her in?"

Going around, Fan Xian was still persuading the eldest prince to accept the side concubine, and the eldest prince said slightly angrily: "I really don't know where your usual admirable eyes have gone, and you actually said that this yellow-haired girl is a good choice." ”

"What's wrong?" Fan smiled and said, "You don't need me to remind you, you should also know that your foundation is in the army." She is Wang Zhikun's daughter, if you take her as a side concubine, the relationship with the military will definitely be closer. Don't forget that although your prestige in the military is high, the Western Expeditionary Army has long been dispersed, and it is impossible for you to return to Dingzhou, and the post of commander of the forbidden army has also been removed. ”

"That's what my father meant. The eldest prince's expression cooled down, and he said, "I didn't expect that your abacus was as loud as your father's uncle." ”

Fan Xian raised his eyebrows. sat down straight and said, "Your Majesty's meaning can be seen clearly by everyone - there is always a woman entering the palace, always keeping an eye on the position of the princess." If you don't want the princess to be deposed. Then it is better to let Wang Yu'er enter the mansion than others. ”

The eldest prince stared at him suspiciously. I wondered why Fan Xiandi's meaning had changed so much. I firmly believe that Wang Yu'er is the best choice. You must know that Wang Yu'er's background behind her is very deep, and there is a military Yanjing faction to support her. Plus His Majesty secretly let go. Once this woman enters the house. It will definitely threaten the status of the princess immediately.

"The reason why I say that Wang Yu'er is a good choice is because this girl's family really likes you. Fan Xian said: "And although this young lady's personality is a little more vicious." But it's a girl who takes the route of slashing and killing, such a person seems to be troublesome, but it's actually easier to deal with...... You don't want a new concubine in the palace. It's as weak as the eldest princess back then. In fact, it is a powerful character in the shadow. ”

The eldest prince thought for a moment. found that this is indeed the truth, Wang Yu'er. Dare before the will of the palace is issued. He came to the palace to make trouble. It's really not a woman who takes the gloomy route. It's just that he thought and thought. Still frowning, she said, "But she's just a fifteen-year-old yellow-haired girl." Not sensible at all. What if I make trouble with a kitchen knife every day after entering the palace?"

"Your Majesty's intentions, we can't resist clearly. Fan Xian looked into his eyes. persuaded softly: "But we can try to deal with it in a different way, as for whether Wang Yu'er will make trouble in the future, it depends on how well I, the teacher, teach." And how well you two coped. ”

He took a sip of tea. Suddenly, I felt that my center of the earth was getting harder and harder. After laughing at himself, he said: "It's still the same old saying, Wang Yu'er likes you." So she just needs to enter the palace. It must be you. A person is not satisfied. It mainly depends on what her wishes are. If it is replaced by a young lady from another family, perhaps the princess will not be satisfied. But I think Wang Yu'er will probably marry you. She was satisfied. ”

The eldest prince glanced at him noncommittally. said lightly: "Why do you judge the thoughts of a daughter's family so much? Once the house is restless. You're going to finish?"

"I'll come, I'll come. Fan Xian shrugged and said, "About my daughter's thoughts." There is no second man in this world who knows better than me, and you have to have faith in me. ”

The eldest prince was stunned, thinking that Fan Xian's words were not a big deal, just looking at the stone book, I don't know how many little girls were killed. Look at the glorious achievements of his life. Not only did he lose his heart to the death of his favorite sister Chen, but even the saint daughter of the Northern Qi Heaven was also lost in despair. I knew that his judgment must be reasonable.

"I just don't understand why Miss Wang has to keep an eye on me, you must know that we only met once that day when Shi Fei was at the banquet. The eldest prince stared at Fan Xian and said, "I like it when I see it." If it's a monster like you. It's a possibility. ”

"Women and men are two creatures. Fan Xian patted him on the shoulder with pity and said, "Don't think about it if you can't figure it out." ”

The eldest prince spat with some annoyance. A question immediately came to mind: "You are such a busy minister. Accepting Wang Yu'er as a female student, of course, is not just because of my location. ”

Fan Xian laughed a little embarrassedly and said, "You can see everything, what are you asking? I don't have anything but black horses on hand, and I've got a better relationship with the military elders. It's not wrong, I don't want a second old Qin family who hates me to the bone in the future. ”

The eldest prince was stunned. sighed and said: "The girl of Ye Chong's family has always listened to you, and now you don't even let go of Wang Zhikundi's daughter." What a ......."

That sounds awkward. Fan Xian rubbed his nose and scolded with a smile: "I'm not a beast, these two are your brothers' people in the basement, you can't talk nonsense." ”

"But they're all your schoolgirls. With a deep smile, the eldest prince said: "In addition, Hongcheng is in Dingzhou, although my father has always strictly forbidden you to participate in the military, but if you calculate it, you will soon have a relationship with the three-way army, and your abacus is no worse than your father's." ”

"You underestimate me, although the guy Bingyun once said that I seem to be conquering the world by conquering women in my life...... But with the strength of the two border armies and the Ye family, I won't be stupid enough to use two female students to influence anything. Fan Xian laughed, "But I want to make the relationship with the military better." ”

When he said this, Fan Xiandi's mood was actually a little complicated. It has been five years since I came to Kyoto and entered the incomparably complex Kyoto officialdom and influenced the general trend of the world. But his efforts to reach out to the Qingguo military all fell into vain without exception. Although His Majesty's wariness of his land seems to have faded a lot. Let Li Hongcheng, who was good friends with him, serve as the general of Dingzhou. But if Fan Xian really wants to push his forces into the army. But it's still extremely difficult.

For example, the Jiaozhou Water Master, Fan Xian once helped through Xu Maocai. Gradually, he arranged for his cronies to enter. Prepare to wait for the old Qin family after the rebellion. secretly took over the strength of the Jiaozhou Sailor, but I didn't expect it. His Majesty did not let go of this subtlety at all

directly knocked Xu Maocai to the mortal dust - although for the sake of Fan Xian's ground, he mercilessly spared Xu Maocai's life. But the entire Jiaozhou Sailor is getting farther and farther away from Fan Xian's palm.

Moreover, Fan Xian has been staying in Jiaozhou and Hou Jichang, and because of this incident, he has been working for two years to no avail. Wasted a lot of time, on top of the official road. It's getting harder and harder. Now not only is it far from Yang Wanli's reputation in the Ministry of Industry, but it is even much worse than Cheng Jialin, who has already served as the governor of Suzhou.

Hou Jichang is the most admired local person among the four sons of Fan Men, so he entrusted Jiaozhou to him, and he didn't expect Fan Xian to make a mistake. But it hurt this Kyoto genius who was as famous as He Zongwei back then. Now he can only survive the official voice in remote Jiaozhou.

His Majesty the Emperor now has more trust in Fan Xian's grace. But he still prevented him from entering the military, this fact made Fan Xian's heart beat a little, I don't know if His Majesty the Emperor knows something, or if His Majesty the Emperor is because of the incident more than 20 years ago. often has nightmares, and Xu Mao is the old man of Quanzhou Shuishi back then, so he is still wary of Fan Xian's son.

"You need to have a good relationship with the military. I don't need to. ”

The words of the eldest prince pulled Fan Xian out of his contemplation. He smiled a little reluctantly and said, "But you need to maintain a good relationship with Your Majesty." As for me, as long as Your Majesty does not obstruct me. Not only do I want to have a good relationship with the military, but Wang Zhikun, a military elder, also wants to be good friends with me. I took his daughter as a student, but I was afraid that he would wake up laughing in the middle of the night. ”

The eldest prince raised his eyebrows, knowing that Fan Xian was telling the truth. Today's Qingguo is purely based on its position of power. There is no one more beautiful than Fan Xian, and everyone in the world knows that he is the flesh and blood of His Majesty the Emperor of Qingguo and the mistress of the Ye family back then, and with this relationship, all the ministers and generals will subconsciously slap him.

After the two of them said this, they fell silent at the same time, the eldest prince thought a little helplessly, it seems that the matter of accepting the concubine is difficult to solve, but Fan Xian is thinking, the deepest suspicion of the emperor Lao Tzu in the palace will be eliminated in his heart?

"Tell me about the Westside. The eldest prince suddenly frowned and said: "What is going on with the Hu people, there must be a reason for the great increase in strength in the past two years." ”

"You'll know in two days. Fan Xian had long known that the eldest prince would not be able to help but ask this question, the eldest prince had been fighting in the west for many years, and he was extremely familiar with that grassland, and the mourning of the Hu people who killed the land was shocking, if it weren't for His Majesty's worries that the eldest son's merits would be no longer crowned, he would not have been transferred back three years ago. Although the eldest prince has already returned to Beijing, his heart is still floating on the grassland from time to time, and he is naturally very concerned about the situation there.

Seeing that he refused to answer, the eldest prince shook his head helplessly, and said: "Hongcheng has become more and more prosperous in the past two years, but the Hu people are ruthless and bloodthirsty, you need to remind a little." ”

After Fan Xian nodded, he suddenly frowned and asked seriously: "My Qingguo and Xihu have been fighting for decades, and every time it seems that they have a big advantage, they can completely solve the problem by looking at it, why is the power of the Hu people always like a weed after a spring breeze, growing again?"

The eldest prince has a very say in this issue, and said: "That's because the grassland is too big, from the southern edge of the heavenly vein to the west, the endless grassland does not know the border at all, once I Daqing has an absolute advantage, they will flee to the west, where can it be completely solved." ”

"But this time, I found that the Xihu Royal Court is not particularly far away from Dingzhou City. Fan Xian asked puzzled.

The eldest prince glanced at him with a slight sneer, and said, "The royal court of the Hu people is not Kyoto, nor is it Shangjing, and by the time we fought over, they had already moved into the depths of the grassland...... It was only now that the Hu people were prosperous that they dared to move the royal court to a place not far from the border. ”

"Not to mention that I fought against the Hu people in the west in those years, but more than 20 years ago, my father and emperor led the whole army to the grassland, intending to sweep away the Hu people in one fell swoop. Unfortunately, in the end, it was still a failure. The eldest prince said with some regret: "The power of the whole country, the king and the master are personally killed." With the genius military talent of my father, he still can't conquer the Hu people in one fell swoop, let alone those of us. ”

Fan Xian heard it more than twenty years ago. When Emperor Qing led the royal division to march in person, his face was already solemn. He didn't answer, because he remembered it clearly. On that expedition to the west, his father, Fan Jian, also served in the camp. And in those days, a shocking change occurred in Kyoto, and this change ended the life of a woman. also gave himself a second life, and in the arms of the blind uncle, he took a carriage and went to Shanzhou.

The eldest prince didn't notice Fan Xian's somewhat strange expression. said slowly: "At that time, Lao Shan was mourned at the beginning, and the Hu people were in civil strife. It was the best opportunity for me to celebrate. It's a pity...... And the most puzzling thing is that at that time, Ye Shuai was ordered to hand over the garrison in Kyoto and personally served as the vanguard of the army, and the elite cavalry had already embellished the Xihu royal court, as long as the camp where his father was located held out for another three days, he would be able to wipe out the Xihu princes and nobles. But at this time. But the army suddenly stopped its westward march. Instead, they retreated to the border, which left a sigh of relief for the Xihu people. ”

After Fan Xian was silent for a long time, he raised his face and smiled at the eldest prince and said, "The reason for the withdrawal of the army is very simple, presumably His Majesty already knew it at that time. News of the death of my mother. ”

The eldest prince's heart trembled, and then he thought of the important event that had been sealed for many years, and looked at Fan Xianqiang with a smile. The great prince felt pity in his heart. This topic will not be continued again.

After a while, the eldest prince coughed and turned the subject back to the beginning. said: "Concubine Na really can't stop it?"

"No one dared to resist the decree, and all those who dared to work against His Majesty did not end well. ”

"Wang Yu'er is really a good choice?"

"At least at the moment, I don't see a better choice. ”

"That'...... What can I say to the princess?"

Fan Xian laughed. said: "You don't need to think about this problem, the princess naturally has a way to clean up a little girl." ”

While he was saying this, someone outside reported it. The princess and Miss Wang came over. The eldest prince and Fan Xian glanced at each other and smiled bitterly. After the two women entered. After Fan Xian stood up and saluted, he observed the expressions on the faces of the two of them imperceptibly, and nodded secretly in his heart.

The princess is still as calm and graceful as usual, but Wang Yu'er's face is slightly red and shy, not like before, it seems that after being driven by Fan Xian to the princess's side, this young lady of the Wang family got some kind of promise.

Fan Xian sighed secretly in his heart, knowing that the princess was really powerful, and she had already made up her mind before the two big men decided, and was forced to make a look in order to ensure her own interests

Choice.

It seems that there is no need for the prince to persuade the princess in embarrassment, but the princess to persuade the princess to focus on the overall situation, and not to go against the will of the father in the palace. Fan Xian smiled, squinted at the princess, and said a few words of gossip lightly, and the princess also smiled, and the two of them knew what the other party was thinking.

In the Kyoto Rebellion, the little emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty intended the eldest prince to take over the throne, so through the Jinyi Wei spy sent by the princess, he secretly revealed Fan Xian's whereabouts to the eldest princess, and almost killed Fan Xian. But Fan Xian knew that this matter had nothing to do with the princess, and for the sake of the relationship between the eldest prince and his wife, he never told the eldest prince about it, but after all, he and the princess still had some pimples in their hearts, so in the past two years, there was no too deep contact.

The princess has always felt guilty about Fan Xian in her heart, and until today, the two looked at each other like a fox and smiled, turning those past into a spring breeze, without a trace.

After a few words of gossip, Fan Xian was about to get up and say goodbye, he took Miss Wang into the palace, of course, he wanted to take the other party out, after all, there was no marriage in the palace, and the national customs of Qingqing were open again, if Wang Yu'er, a who was allowed to wink at the eldest prince, it would be too ugly to spread out.

The princess pretended to stay for dinner, but her eyes flashed with a clear light. Wang Yu'er was stupid and really didn't want to leave, and looked at Fan Xian pitifully.

"Let's go. Fan Xian said.

"Master, where are you going?" Wang Yu'er raised her head, looked at him in surprise, and said naturally.

Wang Yu'er's eyes were full of annoyance, and she refused to speak.

Fan Xian immediately sank his face. Wang Yu'er didn't know why, but she was naturally extremely afraid of Lord Fan, so she subconsciously stood up, gritted her teeth and followed Fan Xian out of the house.

Walking on the road, Fan Xian had already seen the light in the princess's eyes and looked at Wang Yu'er beside him. I couldn't help but shake my head. Although this young lady of the Wang family is extremely rude, if she really enters the palace, where may she be the princess's opponent. I'm afraid that there won't be too many good days to live in the future, but fortunately, Wang Yu'er's background is strong enough, and he must not be too miserable. The prince is not that kind of person.

After a while, the two came to the main gate of the palace. I don't know what spell Fan Xian used, and what words he said to this rude woman. Wang Yu'er seemed to be a different person, honest, and timidly followed behind him, where was the stone lion that had stepped on before. Scolded and scolded.

The main entrance of the palace opened. The butler sent him out, and then hurried to close the door like a ghost. Fan Xian was stunned for a moment and then scolded with a smile. thought that he had also become a pond fish, but in a blink of an eye, he saw Wang Yu'er's face full of anger, and he was about to scold the housekeeper. He sank his face and snorted.

Wang Yu'er immediately felt the coldness beside her, shivered, quickly stopped, walked down the steps honestly, and said something to the old butler with whip marks on his face unusually unaccustomedly.

The old butler was terrified. I thought to myself, when did Miss Di change her temperament? The generals of the Wang family historian next to him were also stupid, thinking that Master Xiao Fan was said to be a student of Master Fei Jie, and it was not because he gave Miss some kind of medicine to make Miss look like this.

Wang Yu'er is like a little white rabbit at this time.

Everyone at the gate of the palace looked at Fan Xian like a god. I thought that Lord Xiao Fan really lived up to his reputation, no wonder His Majesty asked him to pretend to be a prince a few years ago to teach the three princes, this kind of teaching and educating people is really a bit miraculous.

The housekeepers of the Wang family saluted Fan Xian with great gratitude. Then he left the main gate of the palace with their young lady, and Fan Xian shook his head as he watched the pedestrian disappear into the street. Got into his own carriage.

Although Mu Feng'er is now the leader of the Qi Nian group, he is still the young man who did the good thing back then, swallowed his saliva, and asked Xiaoyi: "Adult, what happened......?" How did it come to this?"

"It's simple. Fan Xian sat in the carriage and closed his eyes to recuperate, "If she is not obedient, I will spank her, and I will let the prince marry another woman, I am the Zhengqing of Taichang Temple, how can she not believe it?"

"So stupid?" Mu Feng'er said disdainfully, everyone knows that it is a matter of His Royal Highness's concubine, where is the Taichang Temple Zhengqing can have the final say, and this matter must be nodded by His Majesty the Emperor.

"Don't be stupid, how can the princess let her enter the palace. Fan Xian closed his eyes and muttered, feeling tired, he didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing anymore, if it wasn't for his good friendship with the eldest prince, he should have gone to the palace to hand over the envoy at this time, and then went back to his house to tease his children.

——————————————————

Half an hour had passed, and there was still no movement in the imperial study. The eunuchs were a little helpless to stay outside the room, and Eunuch Yao glanced at the goat's milk and snacks held by the person next to him, and found that everything was almost cold, so he couldn't help frowning.

The little eunuch looked at the door of the imperial study, and thought to himself who His Majesty was talking to, and he had been talking for so long. Eunuch Yao also glanced at the door, thinking that it was better not to disturb the father and son.

Aside from the new little eunuch, the people on the sidelines were not surprised by the current situation. His Majesty has a lot of opportunities, and rarely summons his courtiers alone for more than a quarter of an hour, but Lord Xiao Fan is an exception.

In the past two years, whenever Lord Xiao Fan entered the palace, His Majesty the Emperor would always chat with him in the imperial study for more than half an hour, not only limited to state affairs, but even a few times Eunuch Yao heard His Majesty the Emperor and Fan Xian arguing about the names of the two children of the Fan family.

With this honor and this favor, there is only one Fan Xian in the whole world.

The situation in the imperial study was different from what the eunuchs thought. His Majesty the Emperor of Qingguo looked at Fan Xian, who was sitting in his hand, and asked: "I have made up my mind, Wang Yu'er always wants to enter the palace, you don't have to worry about these idle things...... Speaking of marriage, Yan Bingyun has already married that woman a few days ago, when are you going to explain to me about the matter of China Merchants Bank?"

Fan Xian's eyes changed slightly, and he quickly lowered his head to cover up
