Chapter 219: The Fuse

After Lord Xu returned home, he really saw his wife sighing, holding the handkerchief tightly with one hand, and after seeing Xu De, Mrs. Xu glanced at Lord Xu with red eyes, which showed how angry Mrs. Xu was after the gift was returned.

Lord Xu couldn't help but complain a little: "Look, I just said that you should not give it to Prince Heng's concubine, you don't believe it, now it's okay, the thing has been returned, even Prince Lian knows about the return of the gift, how can you let me mix in the officialdom in the future, others still think that I, Xu De, have to go to Prince Heng!" ”

Lord Xu's words made Mrs. Xu even more congested, speaking of which she was to blame for this matter, she originally thought that she would just go to the birthday banquet of Prince Heng and bring some gifts to that side Fujin, but who knew that Xu De's colleague wife secretly told her that she should also give Prince Heng a gift, which is not rude.

In this way, Mrs. Xu listened to the words of her own colleague's wife, and went to Prince Heng's mansion to bring two gifts, one for Prince Heng and one for Prince Heng's side Fujin, but I didn't expect that the concubine Fujin would be so tough and returned all the gifts they gave.

Mrs. Xu's grievance in her heart! After Lord Xu finished speaking, he continued to complain after glancing at Mrs. Xu twice.

"You don't want to think about it, the birthday of the prince of Fujin, what are you doing with the Fujin ceremony, isn't this deliberately provoking the relationship between the women in the prince's backyard? Fortunately, Prince Heng did not pursue this matter, otherwise my position as a waiter in the Ministry of Rites would have been given up to Xian! "The more Lord Xu talks, the more angry he becomes, he is a Han official, and he finally climbed to this position, how many people wish he made a mistake, he has been cautious in the officialdom for more than ten years, and he has not been caught by anyone, but he can't ruin his future because of his wife's gift!

Mrs. Xu listened, but tears broke down. Lord Xu looked at his wife's pitiful appearance, and was really angry and distressed, the two of them have been through ups and downs for more than 20 years, and I hope not to provoke any trouble because of a gift.

After a while, Lord Xu raised his hand and touched his wife's head, sighed and said with relief: "Since Prince Heng's Mansion Fujin has sent the gift back, you don't have to be too sad, maybe the gifts from other families have also been returned, maybe it's just that people don't want to accept this gift." ”

Lord Xu comforted his wife for a while, but did not express the real worry in his heart.

Mrs. Xu had no choice but to nod helplessly, and secretly swore in her heart: In the future, she will never listen to any words from those relatives of her husband and colleagues, they must not have any good ideas in their hearts.

And at this moment, in Prince Heng's mansion, Wanyue was finally busy, and she couldn't help stretching her waist, and Ying'er and Yuewen also sent people back those gifts.

Looking at Wanyue, who was relaxing, Yuewen couldn't help but sigh softly while fanning Wanyue: "Fujin, if you return all the gifts given by Fujin like this, will those adults be dissatisfied with our Prince Heng's mansion?" ”

Listening to Yuewen's overly worried words, Wanyue smiled and raised her head to look at her: "Even if they have any dissatisfaction in their hearts, they don't dare to say it clearly, giving these gifts is nothing more than trying to win over the prince, so that the prince can help them in the future, and returning these gifts is also to avoid unnecessary trouble." ”

Although Yue Wen was a little puzzled in her heart, she still nodded, after all, the decisions of the masters did not need to worry about them.

Compared with Yuewen's curiosity, Ying'er was much calmer, just in the interval between Yuewen and Wanyue's conversation, Ying'er had already poured herbal tea for Wanyue, and then drinking herbal tea in such a hot weather to quench both heat and thirst.

Wanyue drank all the herbal tea in the cup, looked up at Ying'er after drinking, and exclaimed: "Ying'er, this herbal tea you made is really good, it not only relieves the heat but also feels a little sweet, you can make a cup of herbal tea for each of the children in the courtyard." ”

Sakura immediately answered with a 'yes' and retreated.

Yue Wen continued to wave the fan in her hand, thinking of the conversation between Sanfujin and Sifujin that she heard at the banquet last night, she was a little shocked, it turned out that the royal people could also calculate each other for the sake of interests, but looking at Wufujin in front of her, it was not like a person who was so easy to be manipulated.

At least she hasn't seen a person change from side Fujin to Yan Fujin quietly, and it is not suspicious, this is where Yuewen admires Wanyue, there are rods and scales in her heart for everything, and she is clear in half a catty.

Yuewen thought about the descriptions of Fujin by the other maids in the house, and also felt that she was a very powerful woman, and she admired it very much, and the fan in her hand couldn't help but increase her strength.

Wanyue's neck was chilled by the sudden strong wind, and as soon as she shivered, Yinqi walked in from outside the house.

Wanyue had no choice but to glance at Yuewen, and motioned for her to go out and bring a cup of tea for Yinqi to come in, "Pour a cup of tea for the prince and come in." ”

Yuewen hurriedly came back to her senses, put down the fan in her hand gently, and hurriedly retreated to pour tea before she had time to see Yinqi's face.

As soon as Yinqi entered the room, he shook his shoulders, and then lay down on the couch next to Wanyue, looking a little tired on his shoulders, Wanyue had to silently go over and pinch Yinqi's shoulders.

Yuewen, who came in with tea, saw this scene, and saw that the two of them were a little tired, and after Yuewen gently put down the teacup, she retreated silently.

Wanyue rubbed Yinqi's shoulders while looking at his somewhat frowning brows, stopped rubbing his shoulders in his hand, lowered her eyes and asked in a low voice, "Why does the prince look a little unhappy?" ”

Yinqi sighed and sat up, his mood was a little complicated, mainly because he went out of the palace gate after the meeting, and met the eighth elder brother and the ninth elder brother at the palace gate, his own brother and the ninth elder brother pulled him aside, talking about the secret agent sent out recently to hear the fourth elder brother's intention to seize the heir, and the fourth elder brother's vague decision to use Yinqi to suppress the eighth elder brother.

After Yinqi heard it immediately, his thoughts were confused, his Chinese was taught to him by the fourth elder brother, although his current Chinese level is not very good, but the fourth elder brother is half a master to him, but now the fourth elder brother wants to borrow him to compete for the throne, how can Yinqi feel comfortable in his heart!

After saying goodbye to the eighth elder brother and the ninth elder brother at the gate of the palace, Yinqi has been unhappy in his heart, and he can't understand how the brothers have come to this point, although he and the fourth elder brother are not the same mother, but both of them are also an Amma, and how can their ninth brother and the eldest brother in the family Fujin help the eighth elder brother to win the throne?

Whoever has the ability to take the throne will be the one, isn't it good to be a good prince Baylor? Why wade into this troubled water.

Wanyue saw that Yinqi had not replied, so she had to continue to rub Yinqi's shoulders.

Yinqi felt the comfort of his shoulders again, then he looked up at Wanyue, stretched out his hand and pulled Wanyue's hand, as if admonishing and comforting: "I just met the ninth brother at the gate of the palace, and he said that the fourth brother wanted to borrow me to suppress the eighth brother." I couldn't understand for a while, why did we get to this point when we are all brothers! Whoever they have the ability to be the emperor will be the emperor, why implicate innocent people. ”

Wanyue naturally understood the meaning of Yinqi's words, but born in the royal family, no one can avoid the battle for imperial power, it's just that whoever loses wins in the end!

Wanyue glanced at Yinqi fixedly, increased the strength in her hand, held Yinqi's hand with her backhand, and said with relief: "Lord Wang, you and the fourth brother, the eighth brother and the ninth brother were all born in the emperor's family, these are inevitable for us, the emperor is a fuse, no matter who wins, we may be safe, but if you think about it, if the fourth brother wins, the eighth brother and the ninth brother will inevitably die well; If the eighth brother wins, I think the fourth brother may be able to be an idle prince."
