Chapter 40 Return to Beijing

Ordinary people know that they don't discipline the children of others, but only beat and scold and discipline their own children, and the relationship between Emperor Chengjing and Pei Yao is naturally even more so.

Now Pei Yao seems to be interceding for the eldest prince, but it can be heard in his words that he has been busy with other things, and he has not interfered in the Jiang family's case, and he does not know the inside story.

Emperor Chengjing's face turned pale, and his gaze at the eldest prince became more and more annoyed.

But now that things have happened, and the people outside hold the prince high, he can be regarded as a person who has eliminated harm for the people and returned from meritorious service, and Emperor Chengjing can't punish him clearly if he is angry.

glanced at Pei Yao, and then looked at the eldest prince, Emperor Chengjing still endured his anger.

"Okay, today your imperial brother intercedes for you, forget about this matter, you go to the Fengxian Palace, and give your grandmother incense and ask for sin."

"The retainers obey!"

The eldest prince didn't dare to stop for a moment, and he was busy answering the call and retreated.

Pei Yao stayed for a while longer, and reported some things about the scientific examination substitution case and the pacification of the southern students.

"This time, the sons of the southern tour, specially held a Luming banquet, invited all Jiangnan students to the banquet, to learn poetry, many of them are very outstanding and excellent, presumably will be the pillars of the country in the future, and now the scientific examination replacement case is properly solved, the students are grateful to the emperor Uncle is fair and upright, is a Ming Jun, and they all want to serve the country."

He said a few beautiful words, but he coaxed Emperor Chengjing's face to improve a little.

"You've worked a lot hard this time, I see you've lost a lot, and now that you're back, you must take good care of your body."

"It's all within the son's business, and the emperor's uncle is even harder, but fortunately, the queen takes care of the emperor's uncle every day, otherwise the son's son will travel far away, and he will never be at ease."

Pei Yao immediately bowed his hand, looking very filial.

However, when he mentioned the queen in his words, Emperor Chengjing's eyes sank a little, and he snorted coldly.

"The queen is indeed hard."

Seeing this, Pei Yao opened his mouth and said.

"The queen mother takes care of the trivial affairs of the harem and has to care about the emperor's uncle's dragon body, if there is a sensible woman who can share one or two for the mother, serving on the side of the emperor's uncle, presumably the mother can save a lot of worry, the emperor's uncle has not been drafted for a long time, and the retainer thinks, it is not bad to recruit a few careful and proper women into the palace."

There are a lot of concubines in Emperor Chengjing's harem, and they still have some thoughts about women, and this time he listened to Pei Yao's proposal, although he was moved, but for the sake of face, he still refused.

"You have filial piety, but I'm getting older, and this draft is costing people and money, so there's no need for it."

Seeing Emperor Chengjing's heartbeat, Pei Yao immediately followed.

"It doesn't have to be drafted, many ministers in the court have virtuous and virtuous female dependents in their families, and it is not bad to choose a few good ones to serve in the palace, and they must be sensible."

persuaded to this step, Emperor Chengjing narrowed his eyes and nodded his head.

"Since you have this filial piety, then you can ask the Ministry of Rites to do it, and you can't choose more, two or three are enough."

"The retainers obeyed."

Pei Yao arched his hand, and then withdrew from the imperial study.

After getting out of the palace and getting into the carriage, he instructed Hong Zheng to arrange for someone to go to Zhang's mansion.

Here, Pei Yao had just calculated Emperor Chengjing's harem, but he didn't know that there was already a disturbance in his backyard.

Because after returning to Beijing, he, the eldest prince and a group of officials needed to enter the palace first to face the saint, so Fang Yu and Zhou returned to the East Palace alone.

When he came back from a long distance, he naturally had to go to the crown princess to say goodbye first.

However, the crown princess was unwell today, so she didn't see them at all, so she directly asked her personal maid Tianmo to come out and pass on a few words, and then sent them away.

After coming out of Wutong Garden, he went back separately from Zhou Shuren.

But not long after she rested here, Concubine Yang Fang came over with someone, and Zhou Shuren on the other side was stopped and taken away by He Liangdi's people halfway before she returned to her residence.

What is the situation of the Zhou family, Fang Yu doesn't know, this time he is busy entertaining the Yang family who are enthusiastic about coming to the door.

"My sister is back, you don't know how stuffy I am when you are not in the palace these times, and the people next to me, except for the princess, can't say anything to me, but unfortunately the princess is weak, and I don't want to bother often."

Entering the house, Yang took the tea handed by Qingrong and started the broken thought mode.

Fang Yu smiled and beckoned her to sit down, and then took over the conversation.

"My sister is thinking of me, and I am also thinking of my sister, I am also tired and panicked when I go out, the south is very humid and hot, I still don't get used to it, in the end, my own nest is good."

The two laughed and looked like a pair of close friends.

Yang took a sip of tea and immediately said.

"That's the same as what is written in the book, I guess the jade pillow I prepared for my sister should not be in vain, is it good for my sister to use it?"

"My sister's heart is as careful as hair, I was really hot and restless when I first arrived there, and I didn't sleep well, so it was much better to use the jade pillow given by my sister, the jade pillow was cool, and there was a unique light fragrance, and it smelled very soothing."

Fang Yu didn't hesitate to open his eyes and say nonsense.

She clearly used the jade pillow only once, and then asked Qingrong to put it away.

But hearing her say this, Yang looked very happy.

"You are really a knowledgeable person, when this jade pillow was made, some soothing spices were added to it, to dry and calm the nerves, the effect is excellent, and now that the summer is hot, you can still use it for some time."

"My sister gave me such a good thing, my sister has nothing good to give back, I went to Jiangnan, I saw that the local silk weaving material is excellent, I chose a good color, and embroidered the pattern with my own hands, and made a dress for my sister, and I hope my sister will not dislike it."

Fang Yu was polite and respectful, with a look of sincerity on his face.

As he spoke, he ordered the box containing the clothes to be fetched.

And Yang Shi also performed very happily, and immediately changed it.

I looked up and down in front of the bronze mirror, and I saw that I liked it very much.

"If you don't say that your sister is the most skillful, this embroidery must be top-notch in Kyoto, but my sister doesn't know my size, how can I make such a fitting dress?"

Fang Yu smiled lightly, "In the past, I used to make my own clothes, and when I looked at people with these eyes, the size was clear in my heart, and my sister was slim, so it was the best thing to do." ”

When she said this, Yang smiled even more, and turned around twice before taking off his clothes and pulling Fang Yu to gossip elsewhere.

"Do you know that when you were away, something big happened in the house?"

"What's the big deal?"

Fang Yu's eyes flashed, and his face showed doubt.

Yang glanced at her, took another sip of tea, looked scared, and lowered his voice.

"Do you remember Song Shuren who entered the palace with you and me, she somehow offended He Liangdi, and was framed for fornicating with the maid in the front yard with the maid next to her, He Liangdi actually broke the maid's leg with her life, and the Song family desperately blocked it, and was also beaten to the board, if it wasn't for the princess to arrive in time, He was afraid that he would have killed their master and servant on the spot!"
