Chapter Forty-Seven: Laughing Brothers in Front of the Moon Tower

Fan Xian looked at Guangxin Palace in a daze, looked at the pillars under the palace, and thought to himself, I don't know if the hole above the pillar has been filled with lime.

The first time he visited the palace at night, he was behind the big pillar of this palace, and was stabbed by the palace maid across the pillar.

The tip of the sword pierced through the thick wooden pillar, nearly piercing his waistbone.

Until now, Fan Xian seemed to be able to feel the killing intent on the sword, although the palace maid was killed by him on the spot. And it was on that night that he overheard the collusion between the eldest princess and the Northern Qi royal family, and the truth that Yan Bingyun was betrayed blocked Yan Xiaoyi's arrow that seemed to come from the sky!

Today, the snow has stopped, and the cold wind is blowing in the palace, but it is colder than the previous ones, Fan Xian shuddered, laughed to himself and shook his head, and left here with Eunuch Yao, and went to the East Palace where the crown prince was.

Although the eldest princess is his mother-in-law, she wants to see her after all, but for the charming and ruthless woman, it is better to keep a distance.

Over the years, under the emperor's secret arrangement, with the cooperation of Chen Pingping and all parties, Fan Xian gradually accepted the power of the eldest princess, and the two sides could no longer coexist, and there was a day when there would be a big fight. It's just that the princess's power is not as strong as it was back then, but Fan Xian is still afraid, not only because she is Wan'er's mother, but also because of the strange feeling in her heart.

In my previous life, I heard a song by Miss He and gave him something...... Fan Xian also felt like this, the eldest princess gave him Neiku, gave him her daughter, gave him her concubine, gave him the Cui family, and the Ming family was about to give it to him, it seems that there are still many things to be handed over to him, if she is the eldest princess, she will probably bite her lip and be silent, and burn this bad son-in-law to death with fire in her eyes. (Thanks to a certain book friend, I forgot your ID, sorry.) And the Junshan Society, and the restless people in the military. Although the eldest princess is not a fire-breathing dinosaur, on the contrary, she is quite tempting, Fan Xian is still a little afraid, afraid of the madness and flattery of her gentleness.

It feels very awkward to stay with such a mother-in-law who is in her thirties and is known as the first beauty in the world, so from beginning to end, Fan Xian has only met the biggest enemy in this life once.

It's interesting in itself.

............ Eunuch Yao glanced at the silent Fan Xian, didn't say anything, and followed in small steps. After a while, I arrived at the East Palace, and it was unfortunate that the queen happened to be chatting with the eldest princess in Guangxin Palace at this time, and only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was reading under the guidance of the Taifu.

Seeing Fan Xian enter the palace, the prince greeted him with a smile and said, "How is the injury?" I wanted to go to the mansion to see you, but I thought that I was afraid that it would disturb your rest, so I broke off this thought. ”

Fan Xian saluted and said goodbye with his efforts, and then straightened up and said with a smile: "My body is already strong, just raise it for two days, and when I enter the palace today, I will come to see His Royal Highness the Prince, so that you don't have to worry." ”

"When will Sister Chen come back?"

"Ming'er. ”

The prince smiled: "While she is away, you have to hurry up and have fun." ”

The two of them sat down with a smile and talked a little about the beauty of the Jiangnan scenery, but they didn't talk a word about the unhappy places. In fact, going back a few years ago, the prince was really good to Fan Xian, although he listened to Xin Qiwu's Jianyi, and showed favor to Fan Xian in the spirit of wooing, but when Fan Xian first entered Beijing, the two of them got along really well.

It's just that no one thought that what happened later would develop into such a strange appearance.

Fan Xian is actually a prince!

And there are historical problems that have not been resolved.

So naturally, Fan Xian picked it out, and the prince became the person on the other side, both sides knew it, because of that historical legacy, the two sides could not work together again, and they couldn't help but sigh a little in each other's hearts, but in the past two years, Fan Xian's main focus was on the two princes' faction, and he did not carry out an all-round attack on the prince's faction, so on the surface, the two of them could still maintain a happy feeling at this time.

Even if the two of them have torn their faces, they still have to be happy in the palace.

Eunuch Yao watched this scene indifferently from the sidelines, and admired the city government of the children of the royal family in his heart.

At the end of a gentle conversation, Fan Xian got up to say goodbye, leaned into the prince's ear and whispered, "Your Highness, you can come in the evening." ”

The prince smiled: "Speaking of which, I really haven't been to your building......"

The genuine prince, who had been gradually marginalized, sighed: "You also know that in the past few years, the palace has cultivated itself and rarely visited outside the palace...... Let's just say that this famous Baoyue Tower, first the second brother, and then you, there is a way, I don't have anything to do. ”

Fan Xian didn't know if there was any hidden meaning in these words, but he didn't bother to guess, he laughed twice, bowed respectfully and withdrew from the East Palace.

Outside the palace, it was not surprising to see an acquaintance.

The eunuch with a blue face and pox, now Hong Zhu, the head of the eunuchs of the East Palace.

Hong Zhu hurriedly stepped aside to greet him.

Fan Xian's expression was very indifferent, and he snorted, and walked forward, but he had some strange feelings in his heart, looking at Hong Zhu's expression, he seemed to have something to say to himself, this little eunuch was a little frightened between his eyebrows, but he didn't know what he was afraid of.

It's just that in the palace, Fan Xian doesn't pay attention to Hong Zhu, he still has to pretend to look down on the other party, this chess piece buried in the palace can't be used casually.

Next, I went to the palace of Concubine Shu and Ning Cairen, and brought a list of books to the biological mother of the second prince, Concubine Shu, all of which were ancient books in the Tianyi Pavilion in Jiangnan.

In the Ningcai Palace, Fan Xian was trained by a good student.

This heroic woman who was born in Dongyi City saw Fan Xian for the first time after knowing his life experience, looking at Fan Xian's eyebrows and eyes, Ning Cairen couldn't help but think of the Miss Ye family who saved herself and the child in her womb...... was angry that Fan Xian didn't take his life seriously, and Fan Xian, who was training, nodded again and again.

After telling some stories about the past, Ning Cairen's eyes became soft and gentle, he looked at Fan Xian like his own son, gently rubbed his head, and told him to take Lord Chen into the palace to see him from time to time in the future.

Fan Xian responded one by one, and when he left the palace, he turned around occasionally, but found that Ning Cairen seemed to be wiping the moisture from the corners of his eyes, and his heart couldn't help but moisten, and the indescribable sadness was inexplicable.

These are all the people of the year, the things of the year.

............ Busy and walking, Fan Xian was also a little bored, this was like the first time he entered the palace to meet the ladies before the wedding, walking in the palace, saying and doing the same thing, and the repeated repetition was really very draining of each other's minds.

Fortunately, the last Shufang Palace is more relaxed.

Drove Eunuch Yao away, Fan Xian leaned on the chair like a tired and paralyzed dog, and squinted at the palace maid who was busy serving tea to herself, this palace maid had clear eyebrows and eyes, her head was always lowered, and she was very well-behaved, Fan Xian couldn't help but move in her heart, and pinched her white wrist when she took the tea.

The palace maid glared at Fan Xian.

Fan Xian laughed and said, "Xing'er, when I saw you for the first time, you were only thirteen, and you have a big temper when you grow up." ”

Yi Guifei, who was reclining on the couch, looked at Fan Xian and the child messing around, and couldn't help but say, "You go out to make trouble yourself, don't come to trouble the people in my palace." ”

The girl Xing'er was the little girl who led Fan Xian around the palace to meet her, and when the two masters said it, her face suddenly turned red, and she ran into the back with small steps.

Fan Xian took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and said seriously: "Auntie, I'm about to leave the palace, so I won't talk to you more." ”

"Out of the palace?" Yi Guifei was slightly stunned, and immediately understood what was going on, and said with a trace of worry between her eyebrows: "What do you want to do at night?"

Fan Xian was also stunned and asked, "Do you know about this?"

Concubine Yi covered her mouth and smiled: "Lord Xiao Fan set up a banquet tonight, and it was those big people who were invited...... This matter has long been spread all over the world, and although I live in the palace, I don't know the truth. ”

Fan Xian said with a wry smile: "But in one day, why did you make such a big fuss? It's just that I haven't returned to Beijing for more than a year, so I can't avoid please." ”

Yi Gui Concubine said: "Although I want to tell you something, at least I have to thank you for the child's discipline this year, but I know that your evening is important, so you can go first." ”

She paused, and then said, "Have you invited Hongcheng?"

Fan Xian shook his head and said with a smile: "Take Wan'er to the Jingwang Mansion another day." ”

Yi Guifei nodded.

Fan Xian said with a smile: "I can't leave at this time, I came to pick up the third child, and Master Liu is still teaching him homework at this time, how to go?"

Concubine Yi was stunned for a moment, and said worriedly: "Ping'er is going too?"

"Brothers get together, with me, what are you worried about?" Fan Xian smiled gently, indescribably confident.

―――――――――――――――――――――――― time in recent years, the heavy snow suddenly stopped, I don't know how to rise again, Kyoto is cold, but the buildings next to the street are red lights hanging, red candles are bright, warm cages are spread everywhere, as if those precious bamboo charcoal do not need money.

The door of the Baoyue Building is hung with three thick leather curtains, and occasionally servants pass by, and when the curtain is lifted, the heat in the building will rush out, and for a while, the air on this street seems warmer than elsewhere.

The pedestrians who did not pass by on the street, the Kyoto government officials and the soldiers of the Kyoto garrison stationed here rubbed their frozen hands, looked at the bright and shaky building, did not dare to say anything on their lips, but scolded their mothers in their hearts, they had to guard outside, but the nobles in the building could bathe in the chΕ«n wind.

The world's restaurants and green buildings are probably only Baoyue Lou will be so luxurious. However, this is not the case in the past, but today it is different from the usual.

Baoyue Building is not open today.

Even half of the street was sealed off by the Kyoto Prefecture and the people guarding Kyoto, which was reported to the government by Baoyuelou in advance, and it was specially approved without a trace of delay.

The adults of Kyoto Prefecture are not qualified to attend this party, but he still has to work hard to arrange his guards. Not only him, but the rest of the officials in Kyoto also thought the same way, no matter which faction they belonged to, they had to serve the Baoyue Tower today.

Because today all the people in Kyoto who can be called masters have to come to Baoyue Tower.

Taixue Siye and Taichang Temple Shaoqing and the Governor of the Supervision Yuan and the Governor of Jiangnan - Fan Xian, Xiao Fan is a treat today!

Although everyone knows that this little Fan is a lonely minister who dares to offend the courtiers and is willing to offend the courtiers, the guests are the crown prince, the three princes, the two deputy envoys of the Privy Council, and several powerful people, and even these people have to give Fan Xian face, let alone the rest.

If anyone has the ability to kill all the guests tonight, I am afraid that the Qing Dynasty will be in chaos, and the Kyoto Mansion and Kyoto will not be able to guard the heart, and the guards will be strict, which can be compared to the deep palace.

A few high-grade sedan chairs took advantage of the twilight sè to come to the front of the Baoyue Tower, and a few big people arrived in a car, and then several powerful figures in the army rode to the front.

No one will bring too many relatives to hinder Fan Xian's eyes, several dragon sons and grandsons only brought two or three tiger guards, these ministers are also assured of their safety, although the sniping in the valley has only recently happened, but everyone knows that this Baoyue Tower is the property of the Fan family.

The eldest prince arrived, the deputy envoys of the left and right privy councils arrived, Xin Qiwu arrived, Ren Shaoan arrived, and the Baoyue Building was now in full operation, and the girls helped these big men to the wing room to rest, waiting for the banquet.

Fan Xian chatted with everyone for a few words, said some naughty jokes, and then led the child next to him to the door, because he heard the news of the arrival of His Royal Highness the Prince.

Seeing that kid honestly let Fan Xian lead him, the two deputy envoys of the Privy Council and the other ministers at the table who were staring on the side were shocked, and the picture in front of them was enough to make these big people think of many things.

In ancient times, there was a coercion of the Son of Heaven to order all the candidates, and now there is Xiao Fan holding the child's hand, who knows the future Qingguo, the future world, will it be these two people?

Fan Xian was holding the three princes.

............ It was a little cold outside the curtain of the door, the third prince shivered, looked sideways at the teacher who was two heads taller than him, a trace of admiration flashed in his eyes, and then asked: "Sir, your injury is not healed, why do you come out to greet you?"

Fan Xian shook his head and explained gently: "It's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the prince of the country, his identity is different, and he is your brother, whether he is a courtier or a brother, he should be respected." ”

A small sedan chair came to the front of Baoyue Tower under the protection of more than a dozen guards, Fan Xian's eyes were sharp, and he saw that there were several tiger guards around with long knives on their backs, waiting coldly. In order to prevent the people's discussion from being too prosperous and embarrassing the imperial court, all the guests withdrew the travel honor guard to Rì, and even the prince who arrived at this time can be regarded as a light car.

Fortunately, otherwise this street would have been blocked by the pomp and circumstance of the big guys.

The sedan curtain was opened, and His Royal Highness the Prince, who was dressed in pale yellow dress, got off the sedan chair with a smile on his face, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Fan Xian and the third child facing him outside the building, the prince was in a good mood, although this is the right thing to do, but with Fan Xian's current power, this kind of respect is exactly what the prince needs.

Fan Xian and the third prince took the first salute, the prince hurriedly helped him up, and after a while, everyone in the building also knew that the prince had arrived, and hurriedly came out to greet him, only the eldest prince seemed to have drunk happily and forgot to come out, but the prince knew that his brother was born in the army, and he was this kind of xìng feeling, so he didn't care much.

A group of people gathered in front of the building, and were about to go in to talk, when another carriage slowly approached.

The prince turned back curiously, thinking to himself whose shelf was actually bigger than himself, and would be later than himself?

Everyone also looked over, only to see a thin middle-aged official get out of the carriage, this official was not wearing clothes that indicated his rank, but everyone immediately recognized it, and they couldn't help but be a little surprised and surprised that this adult would also come.

The person who came was not someone else, it was Xue Qing, the governor of Jiangnan Road, the seven roads in the world, Xue Qing was in charge of one of them, as a super minister, and controlled the richest road in the world, the key is that he is a confidant of His Majesty, and he has been a teacher of the princes in the library, so compared with these ministers in the court, the status is more respectful.

Xue Qing looked at everyone, smiled slightly, and saluted the prince first.

The prince didn't dare to say anything, with him as the leader, everyone hurriedly saluted Xue Qing.

Fan Xian said with a smile: "Lord Xue returned to Beijing to report on his work, and the younger generation was abrupt, thinking that he had worked together in Jiangnan this year, and he was quite favored by adults, so he dared to take the liberty of inviting him." ”

Everyone sighed, and they all laughed and said that Lord Xiao Fan had a big face, and even Governor Xue invited him over, but he was secretly slandering in his heart, Fan Xianjin was not because of the sniping in the valley, and he wanted to demonstrate to some forces, so even Xue Qing moved over.

No wonder these big people think so in their hearts, because today's banquet in the Moon Tower is still a gathering of the younger generation, Dean Chen, and old guys like Shu Daxue don't dare to be alarmed, even if they want to invite, they are afraid that His Majesty will not allow it.

And people are thinking, why did Fan Xian invite so many people belonging to different forces to gather in Baoyue Tower?

"It's just eating and drinking, gossiping, you adults are busy with official business for a year, and when the year is over, you always have to take a break. ”

Fan Xian stood at the door of Baoyue Tower and explained with a smile.

Then he saw a team of people coming over, and it was the second prince who was at the head - the second prince who was very similar to Fan Xian, and his temperament and taste were like carved out of a mold, but he was born with Fan Xian in Kyoto, in the north, and in the south of the Yangtze River.

Of course, the temporary winner now is Fan Xian.

Fan Xian and the second prince glanced at each other, and had a tacit understanding, in no particular order, regardless of respect or inferiority, at the same time arched his hands, bent his waist slightly, and bowed.

Then the corners of their lips curled slightly, and a slightly shy smile surfaced at the same time.

The two sighed in their hearts, and this smile ...... Some have been lost for a long time.
