Because of the Qian family, Luo Chuhuai and Lu Ming both arrived at Wuchang Mansion, and Ye Chengwei's heart has recently begun to become more and more solemn.

Lu Ming's words a few days ago also reminded him that the current court is afraid that it has reached a white-hot stage.

If His Majesty really intends to establish an heir, he will have to make some plans for the future.

It's just that the actions of King Yun and King Fu made him feel cold, if the new monarch was born among these two princes, I am afraid that the future of the Daye Dynasty will be ruined.

Thinking about it, His Majesty also knew it in his heart, so he didn't make a decision for a long time.

He sat in the courtyard all day, thinking about what Lu Ming had mentioned, thinking about who among the princes in the capital was worthy of his continued loyalty in the future, and he didn't come up with a reason until the evening.

Seeing Ting Anxing come back in a hurry, Ye Chengwei gathered his thoughts and asked lightly, "Everything is done?" ”

"Not only did it happen, but I'm afraid that Childe would be surprised when he found out."

Ting An put the silver ticket redeemed from the auction house in front of him, opened the box, and said with a smile: "Please also ask the son to take a look." ”

Ye Chengwei couldn't help frowning when he saw it: "Why are there so many silver tickets?" ”

If you don't say anything, it's hundreds of thousands of taels.

"It's no wonder that the son is not diligent enough, since he entered the Taixue, there has been no great work, and now the market is only hearing the reputation of the child, but there is no masterpiece, the calligraphy and painting of the son are all thirsty, and the price is naturally rising."

Ting An said with a smile: "Those rich and noble families are really extravagant people, and today the third master of the Zhuo family, Shan Gongzi, took out 100,000 gold to buy the painting. ”

"100,000 gold?"

Hearing this number, Ye Chengwei suddenly showed a shocked expression: "It seems that the Zhuo family is really not simple." ”

"Childe, don't you know, today, His Royal Highness King Ning and Third Master Zhuo almost fought over that painting."

Ting An gloated and replied: "The shopkeeper of the auction house also begged me to collect more calligraphy and paintings of the evil god for him, so he didn't take a penny from the three calligraphys, and only mentioned 30,000 gold to sell the paintings. ”

As he spoke, he looked at the silver ticket in the box again, and pouted: "With these 750,000 taels of silver tickets, Gongzi is afraid that there will be no more masterpieces in this life." ”

Ye Chengwei himself didn't expect that his calligraphy and painting would be coaxed to such a point now, in the past, he only felt that someone liked it, and he could just exchange it for some silver to support his family, so that his mother did not have to tighten his clothes and food, and he could also make his study journey smoother.

Caught off guard and made so much silver, he had the illusion of being a nouveau riche, and he was really at a loss for a while.

Ting An seemed to smell the business opportunity to make money, and joked with a sneer: "If you want me to say that the prince might as well make his identity public, if the world knows that the evil god of the sword and pen is the son, let alone a dignitary, even those royal relatives and nobles in the capital have to think highly of the prince." ”

"Nonsense."

Ye Chengwei raised his eyebrows and said, "Why bother to cause those unnecessary troubles, do you think I'm too idle every day now?" ”

After thinking about it, he put away the box and calmly instructed Ting An: "It's still the old rule, bring some back to the old lady, and now you have to buy some fields when you come to the provincial capital." ”

"Do you need to add some more?"

Ting An felt that the ability of his son was going to enter Beijing sooner or later, and there were not many properties secretly placed in Beijing in the early years, so he should take this opportunity to buy more industries.

"No need."

Ye Chengwei pondered and replied: "You allocate 100,000 taels to Lu Dianshi in the name of the evil god of the sword and pen, and ask him to send it to Jiang'an County and distribute it to the families of the 3,000 victims who died in Baitou Mountain. ”

As soon as he finished explaining the matter, he saw the little maid in the mansion rushing in in a hurry, and said, "My lord, His Royal Highness King Ning and Miss Hua have arrived, and the lower officials have sent someone to take them to the provincial capital post house for settlement." ”

"The people of the inn are so entertaining."

Ye Chengwei didn't know why King Ning also came to the provincial capital, but he lived in the post house, and the entire post house was afraid that it would be difficult to clean, and some officials were scrambling to tie up every day, so he was busy asking the little guy: "A few days ago, I explained to you that the house I was looking for near the Yamen of the Inspectorate Department has been settled?" ”

The little servant nodded hurriedly: "The lower official has been done, everything is selected according to the instructions of the adult, it is a new house with two entrances and two exits, it was originally a cousin sent by the political envoy to settle a distant house, and when he learned that Lord Ye needed to settle the noble guests in the house, he let the house out first, and he didn't ask for more than one or two silver." ”

"Thank you, Envoy for me."

Ye Chengwei told again: "After the dinner, you will lead Miss Hua to move to the new house, if she asks, you will say that it is a temporary rented house by the official office, so that she can live in peace of mind." ”

"Yes."

After the little guy answered, he left first.

Ye Chengwei went back to the house and changed into civilian clothes, and led Ting An towards the post house.

When I arrived at the post house, I saw many officials coming out of it sullenly.

Ye Chengwei probably guessed the reason, the prince made an imperial businessman in the provincial capital dismiss his face, and these officials rushed to greet him, what else could it be if it wasn't a hot face and a cold ass.

It's just that the reception banquet he held was not to please King Ning, he was at most an uninvited guest, and he let him stir up the situation.

It really makes people suffer.

After silently saluting with a few colleagues, the provincial government's political participation was afraid that he would not be able to get half of the benefits when he entered, so he kindly reminded: "Lord Ye, let's come back another day, His Royal Highness King Ning doesn't want to see guests today." ”

"The political sufficiency is too worried, and I didn't come to ask for King Ning."

Ye Chengwei smiled at everyone and entered the post house directly.

At this time, in the post house, the atmosphere seemed a little dignified, and all the officials were hesitant to stay in the courtyard, and no one dared to step into the garden where Zhu Zhiye settled.

Yi Cheng was full of joy to host a dinner party to entertain a few distinguished guests, but His Royal Highness King Kening entered the door and ordered him to avoid guests, which really embarrassed him.

Seeing Ye Chengwei's figure entering, Yi Cheng's face became even more bitter, and he called aggrievedly: "My lord." ”

"Let's all go down."

Ye Chengwei waved his hand at the post and the officials, and then entered the hall casually.

Hua Rujin and Wu Muning were sitting at the coffee table, drinking tea silently, watching Ye Chengwei come in, they both got up together, and called happily: "Ye Gongzi." ”

He is still wearing a jade-colored robe today, but because of a warm white robe on the outside, the whole person's complexion has become different, as if he came out of the painting, so that Hua Rujin can't help but light up in front of him, and can't help but look at him more.

I haven't seen her for many days, but when we meet again today, Ye Chengwei is also happy in his heart, politely returning a gentle smile to Wu Muning, and then he began to look at Hua Rujin, looking at her emaciated and haggard appearance, thinking that she is managing the affairs of the Lu family these days, and is full of distressed concern: "I have lost a lot of weight." ”

These words made Zhu Zhiye, who was already angry, even more dissatisfied, and reprimanded loudly: "Ye Chengwei, what do you mean, are you blaming this king for not taking good care of Xiaohua'er?" ”

"Little flowers?"

Ye Chengwei looked disgusted, and looked at him left and right: "After so many years, His Highness is still so tasteless." ”

"Even you dare to laugh at this king?"

Zhu Zhiye was angry.
