The crown prince Li Chengqian, with a cowardly temperament and a weak body, is what Fan Xian currently understands about the prince. After saluting, he looked up a little impolitely, and looked at the prince with a smile, although the other party was noble, Fan Xian always thought in his heart that he and His Majesty the Emperor had drunk tea and chatted, and naturally he would not be too nervous about his son.

He didn't want to come out to face the prince, but Ye Ling'er, who had no choice but to talk a lot, broke his illusion.

When Fan Xian looked at the prince, the prince also looked at him with interest. For the crown prince, the name Fan Xian shook Jinghua in just a few months, which was an outlier in Chun, and the meaning behind his father's finger and let him marry Wan'er's sister through the door was naturally very clear to the prince, who was the lord of the East Palace.

If the eldest princess and aunt lose the management of the inner treasury, and the enemy who takes over later, I am afraid that those bad debts in the past will be exposed to the world, which is the most worrying problem for the prince at present. Fortunately, it will take two years for the transfer of the inner library, so it is not an urgent need, but the Fan family is good with King Jing, and Li Hongcheng, the son of King Jing, is with ...... The second brother intersected, the prince frowned slightly, looked at the beautiful offspring under the carriage, and forgot to speak for a while.

The staff in the East Palace are now divided into two factions, and whether the Fan family will fight or pull is still under consideration. If it is an ordinary mansion, the prince will not care too much, but the Fan family is different, the grandmother of the young man in front of him is the wet nurse of his father, and there is this relationship, and the prince is not good to the Fan Mansion.

"You...... Is it Fan Xian?" the prince finally found that he was a little distracted, and after being slightly stunned, he asked with a smile.

"Chen Fan Xian, I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince. Fan Xian saluted again with great respect. "I didn't know that the prince's car was here, so I didn't get out of the car before, and I ask Your Highness for forgiveness. ”

"Hmm. Looking at Fan Xian's clean and dusty face, somehow, the prince's original evil feelings towards him had diminished a lot, and at this moment he decided to take a look at it for the time being, and said quietly: "Those who don't know are not guilty." It's just that my sister Wan'er is weak and sick, you have to pay more attention, don't be like those Kyoto teenagers, just want to have fun for a while. ”

The minister was terrified. Fan Xian heard that the prince didn't seem to be ready to deal with him today, so he felt a little relieved in his heart and replied softly.

"Don't be too inhibited, after the October wedding. You are also a relative of the country, and you always have to go into the palace from time to time, so you still have to take it easy. The prince lectured.

Fan Xian smiled slightly and said yes. Unexpectedly, the prince's next sentence surprised him a little.

"Soon, the envoys of Dongyi City and Northern Qi will enter Beijing, because the matter of Niulan Street is related to you, so the imperial court decided that you will be the deputy envoy, and the rank will be used for the time being, I will inform you in advance, make some preparations, don't panic temporarily." The prince said lightly, thinking that he had unknowingly sold the other party a good one.

Fan Xian was stunned. After a little consideration, he said: "The minister is the assistant of Taichang Temple, and he participates in state negotiations. I'm afraid it's not appropriate. ”

The prince snorted coldly: "If you don't have some political achievements. How will you deal with yourself in the DPRK and China in the future?"

Fan Xian heard that the other party was a little angry, and quickly responded. thanked the prince again, and then turned around and moved out of the way.

The prince waved the black silk and gold wire horsewhip in his hand, nodded with satisfaction, and then turned to Lin Wan'er and said gently: "You still enter the palace more, my aunt misses you very much." He paused for a moment, and then said, "Auntie has been ...... a lot lately Pain. The prince's voice was not unusual, and his expression was normal and gentle, but Fan Xian's afterglow swept away, and he still found a trace of uneasiness in the prince's cowardly eyes.

Lin Wan'er smiled silently.

"The prince got up. With a shout, the prince's motorvoy moved and slowly walked in the direction of the summer resort. Fan Xian didn't dare to move, until the prince's convoy disappeared at the end of the road, he sighed lightly, moved his somewhat stiff waist, and shook his head with a wry smile: "It's really hard to be a courtier." ”

"Could it be that you still dare to have a heart of disobedience?" Ye Ling'er grabbed his speech and mocked.

"Ling'er, don't talk nonsense!" The so-called one thing descends one thing, Si Zhi is afraid of Ruoruo, Ye Ling'er is afraid of the little tiger, Lin Wan'er is angry, Ye Ling'er immediately jumped back into the carriage.

Lin Wan'er walked to Fan Xian's side, looked at him and looked at the direction where the carriage disappeared thoughtfully, and couldn't help but sigh and said: "I know what you're worried about, it's just that my three brothers are not easy to get along with, I think you'd better not take sides." ”

Fan Xian had always recognized the political wisdom that Lin Wan'er had cultivated in the deep palace, nodded solemnly, and suddenly thought of something and asked, "What about the youngest prince?"

"Wen Yun is only eight years old, how can he understand this. Lin Wan'er then comforted him and said: "Taichang Temple's vain horse, joining the ceremonial negotiation, there have been such precedents before, but it doesn't necessarily mean that Donggong really wants to win you over, you should relax a little." ”

Fan Xian smiled, thinking that his heart was wide enough, but he still pretended to sigh and said, "It's just that when I see the prince of the East Palace, the future master of our Qingguo, I still can't help but be nervous." "It's strange to say, although the highest official rank Fan Xian saw before his illness in his previous life was just the principal of the school, but after being reborn, maybe because he was born in an official family, he wouldn't be so nervous when he saw the big guys, and even when he saw His Majesty the Emperor a few days ago, he could hide it well.

Lin Wan'er couldn't help laughing, pulled the corner of his sleeve and said, "Didn't you hear the prince, you have to go into the palace to meet you before the wedding, if the old ancestor is happy, it is not impossible to meet you." A dozen palaces come down, even if you are nervous, you will be numb. ”

"Old Ancestor?" Fan Xian knew that Lin Wan'er was talking about the Queen Mother who lived in the palace, but somehow, he shuddered.

"Let's go, Your Highness is so far away, what kind of horse butt are you still standing there looking at?" Fan Sizhen, who had been bored for a long time, finally couldn't help shouting in the front car, and Dabao in the middle carriage heard someone calling, and he also screamed happily.

Fan Xian smiled, flipped his sleeves, and left these things behind.

――――――

In Fan Xian's cognition, since he is lucky enough to live again, he must live a round, what beauty, silver, power, don't be too little. But after entering Beijing, seeing that the water was turbid and didn't know the depth, he couldn't help but feel a little bored.

Now that the business of the bookstore is good, the next few chapters of the Stone Chronicle are also beginning to be ready for printing, and I see the money pouring in. In the future, even if you take the inner library, find a way to throw it to Qingyutang and Fan Sizhen to take care of. As for the affairs of the court, naturally there are father, Chen Pingping, and other mother-in-arms who stood in front of him. For the danger that comes from the shadows, there is Uncle Wuzhu as a bodyguard, even if Uncle Wuzhu cherishes his facial skin like the one in Niulan Street, and doesn't want to see the sun, Fan Xian also feels that he has the ability to protect himself.

So suddenly, he felt as if he had the potential to become a wealthy man.

It was still just a fantasy, and he and those around him knew it well. Snapping his fingers slightly, Fan Xian looked at the loess road outside the car window with a calm face, and said: "It's too coincidental, there are a total of thirteen royal palaces in the southeast and northwest of Kyoto, two palaces, and a hunting ground, all of which can be used in the capacity of His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

After getting back on the road, he and Wang Qinian were alone in a carriage, so they spoke very directly. Wang Qinian also frowned: "If someone deliberately let the prince come to the summer resort, so that we can have a conflict with the prince, this arrangement is too complicated, and it may not be effective." ”

Fan Xian shook his head, and a chill in his eyes rose slightly: "As long as there are people around the prince, it is not difficult to slightly affect the destination of the prince's travel." And my reputation in Kyoto has always been inseparable from the word arrogance, and I guess those who arranged for us to meet the prince by chance would not have imagined that the prince would not be angry when he saw me with the gun and his silver, and I was so peaceful. ”

"It's just that I don't know the rules in the palace, like how long it takes for the prince to go out of Beijing for a small tour. We came to the summer resort yesterday, and if the prince confirmed that he was coming here a few days ago, we can confirm that this is a coincidence, not an arrangement by someone with a heart. Wang Qinian analyzed.

Fan Xian shook his head again: "I have already asked the county lord when I got in the car first, the prince travels, as long as he is not twenty-eight miles away from Kyoto, then he only needs to report to the palace, and it will take about a day to prepare for the matter." Looking at the time we met, when the prince left the palace, it was estimated that it was this morning. ”

Wang Qinian glanced at Fan Xian worriedly, and said in a low voice: "What good can the person who arranged this matter do?"

Fan Xian laughed: "There are many benefits, if the prince really humiliates me, it is estimated that our old Fan family will have to carry the flag to show the camp." ”

"Is it the second prince?" Wang Qinian asked tentatively.

Fan Xian thought to himself, by chance during the period after entering Beijing, the two princes were repeatedly summoned, and he had never met him, and he really didn't know what kind of character this man who was unwilling to be a prince of Taiping was, but he would not judge all this very arbitrarily, and said softly: "Who knows? The people in the palace are all like spirits, so I don't bother to pay attention to them." ”

Ignoring it was false, he still arranged for Wang Qinian to get out of the car to see if someone was following his convoy. He believes that with Wang Qinian's skills, if someone really secretly monitors him on the official road, then he will definitely be able to catch the other party. If no one was monitoring their convoy in order to facilitate the coincidence on the official road, it would only show that they were too sensitive and careful.

Fan Xian smiled bitterly and leaned on the cushion of the carriage, hoping that he was really too careful.
