I'm afraid it's empty words to tell him any more.

He knew that Zhao Pu's request was not to embarrass him, but just a simple reminder and warning. A newlywed husband doesn't teach his wife to be alone the next day, unless something goes wrong between them.

Fang Linyuan had to go.

Facing Zhao Pu's eyes with a knife hidden in his smile, Fang Linyuan reluctantly raised a stiff smile: "I want to go." ”

Zhao Pu smiled lightly and nodded.

For a while, the two looked at each other, as if they were really a virtuous couple with eyebrows on the case.

Fang Linyuan silently turned his eyes away.

Who can save me? He thought weakly.

Not far away, several long-term attendants who saw this scene in the courtyard said with a smile: "Master Hou and Mrs. are really very affectionate. ”

"Isn't it? Madame is what the Hou Ye wants to beg for at dusk. ”

"But why do I think that Master Hou doesn't like to laugh these two days?"

"You know what, that's steady. Hou Ye is married, is it possible to be reckless like a hairy boy? ”

"It's the same, people who have become a family are always different."

Several people laughed and discussed, and no one could see the words "save me" from Hou Ye's slightly stiff expression.

——

Huaiyu Pavilion has been busy until noon, and then it is gradually put into order.

Songyan is a grandmother from the palace, and she is also the highest-ranking maid in Huaiyu Pavilion. When the objects were neatly placed, she summoned all the maids and maids in the courtyard to the courtyard, in order to teach and establish rules.

The princess could not be as lazy as he was elsewhere. Those who sweep the courtyard are not allowed to enter the hall, and those who wait in front of the hall are not allowed to peep into the inner room. In particular, the princess likes to be quiet, except for a few people who come with her in the palace, no one is allowed to step into the princess's bedroom, even if they stay in front of the window, they will be sold immediately.

In the bedroom, there is silence.

Outside the window, a few plantain plants are planted in the green window, now covered with a thin layer of snow. Outside the plantain are several flowering trees, and now the red plum is in full bloom, and the branches are slanted. Not far away is a wide pond where living water is introduced, and the weeping willows by the pool are covered with snow, and a row of green walls are erected just outside the flower window.

Zhao Pu sat alone in front of the window, with the hairpin ring removed, and was slowly burning a furnace of incense.

"The Marquis of Anping's Mansion has been thoroughly investigated, Your Highness can rest assured."

A rough sound rang out in the quiet room.

Wu Xinghai knelt in front of the Jinping not far away, hung his head and said.

"Hmm." Zhao Pu responded, and did not take his eyes off the red incense box. "Can you find the spies in the palace?"

"There are three." Wu Xinghai said.

Zhao Pu laughed: "It's just the right amount." ”

"Your Highness can rest assured that these three people have not moved, and they have no suspicions about Your Highness. Now that the Marquis of Anping Mansion is under control, even the news they send out will definitely pass through our hands. ”

"Well done." Zhao Pu said lightly.

"Father-in-law Shi of the East Factory has made a lot of efforts." Wu Xinghai said.

"Now that he can sit firmly in the position of admiral, he naturally knows who to serve." Zhao Xuan slowly put down the copper incense chopstick and said.

"What about the palace?" He asked again.

"The queen is preparing for the marriage of the sixth princess, and there is nothing abnormal." Wu Xinghai said. "The Dou Mansion sent two times of news from the court, and the slaves and maids didn't dare to move without permission, and they were all placed on His Highness's dressing table."

This was all expected by Zhao Pu.

This sixth princess is from the current queen Jiang Hongluan, with a respected status, and the successor is also extremely concerned about her marriage, and she has already looked like the new champion of the autumn for her.

It's just that the etiquette in the palace is strict, and there are countless officials staring at their every move, she is the queen, and she can't bypass him, the fifth princess who has just passed the filial piety period, and find a good son-in-law for her sister first.

Therefore, Jiang Hongluan has been staring at his marriage very closely in the past two months, which is also one of the reasons why Zhao Pu had to leave the palace as soon as possible.

And another reason......

"What's going on with the East Factory?" Zhao Pu asked.

"I'm still investigating, Father-in-law Shi said that the news will be delivered to the Hou Mansion in a few days." Wu Xinghai said.

Zhao Pu nodded: "Don't worry, Wu Shunde will not die in vain." ”

Wu Xinghai leaned over and kowtowed heavily to Zhao Pu: "It is his blessing to be able to serve His Highness for a game." ”

"Alright, get up." Zhao Pu lit the incense and closed the incense burner in the curling cigarette.

This incense smelled like benzoin at first glance, but in fact, Zhao Pu added three or five flavors of Nanyang spices, which were contaminated on the object, and could linger for seven or eight days.

There was no mark on his correspondence with Dongchang, but this incense was the only way to identify his letters.

Wu Xinghai stood up.

"If nothing else, just step aside. Reply: I'll put it on the incense table tomorrow, and you can send someone to send it out. Zhao Pu said.

"Yes."

"Also, a quarter of an hour before dinner, go to Fuguangxuan to invite Fang Linyuan."

Wu Xinghai was silent for a moment.

Zhao Pu looked at him: "What?" ”

"The slave said bluntly, His Highness's plan is foolproof, but this person is a variable." Wu Xinghai raised his head slowly.

"Your Highness might as well get rid of him as soon as possible, it's a hundred."

There was a cold murderous intent in his cloudy eyes.

Zhao Pu didn't make a sound, only quietly watched the cigarettes in the furnace curl up, scattered in the sunlight, like an impermeable net in the air.

After a moment, he spoke lightly.

"Needless to say, I have my own plans." He said.

——

A quarter of an hour before dinner, Wu Xinghai invited Fang Linyuan to Huaiyu Pavilion on time.

Meals have already been set up in the main hall of Huaiyu Pavilion. Steamed anchovies, simmered pork with Taiwanese carp, roast goose in Yunlin, and a dish of hibiscus tofu and komatsumushrooms, fragrant and light, are Fang Linyuan's least favorite taste.

When Fang Linyuan entered the house, Zhao Pu was sitting at the table, watching the maids make dishes.

Seeing Fang Linyuan coming in, he stood up with a light smile and invited Fang Linyuan to take a seat: "Master Hou is here." ”

Fang Linyuan sat down at the table, and listened to Zhao Pu say beside him: "Today's dishes are made by the chef brought from the palace, I don't know if it suits the appetite of the Hou Ye." ”

The warm-colored lamps and candles in the room reflected on Zhao Pu's face, gilding her face with a layer of molten light. For a moment, even his overly cold face softened a little.

Fang Linyuan could clearly see that his black pupils sunk in the light were a calculation and measurement of his own demeanor and demeanor at every moment.

"Madame bothered." He looked away.

Zhao Xuan smiled and sat down beside him.

"Alright, you all go down." Zhao Pu said to the maids beside him. "I'll serve the Hou Ye for dinner."

The subordinates of the Marquis of Anping have always been loose, but they were cleaned up in front of Zhao Pu in one day, and after saluting the two of them, they quietly retreated.

Fang Linyuan suddenly felt like he was in the palace.

Seeing this, the Yan Pavilion behind him hurriedly cast an inquiring glance at Fang Linyuan.

Fang Linyuan glanced at Zhao Pu and nodded: "Go down." ”

And Wu Xinghai, who had been guarding the door, did not close the door until Yanting retreated.

The two of them were the only ones left in the huge hall.

"What do you have to say?" When there was no one around, Fang Linyuan asked bluntly.

saw Zhao Pu calmly serving him a bowl of matsutake mushroom soup.

"Master Hou tastes this."

The forged female voice suddenly disappeared, but the cold and cold original voice was still the same gentle and soft tone. With the slender hands serving the soup, it was as if it was really a man who was singing with Fang Linyuan.

Fang Linyuan's back trembled.

“…… What's wrong with you? He looked at Zhao Xuan vigilantly.

I saw Zhao Pu stunned for a moment, then let out a low laugh, took the bowl of soup back casually, and took a sip of it.

"Get used to it." He explained briskly.

The hot soup entered his throat, and Zhao Pu squinted his eyes with satisfaction, like a hungry poisonous snake: "It's just that some people are staring at it uncomfortable, and the Hou Ye is at his own convenience." ”

Fang Linyuan silently picked up the chopsticks and ate the tasteless meals on the table as if chewing wax.

The two used their meals silently until Zhao Pu drank up a bowl of soup, put down his chopsticks, and opened his mouth slowly.

"I do have something to say." He said. "This morning, if it weren't for your eldest sister-in-law's inability to see, you would inevitably arouse suspicion."

"There is no one else in the house, you just have to rest assured." Fang Linyuan said.

Zhao Pu shook his head: "I will go back to the palace the day after tomorrow to thank you, it won't be as simple as today." ”

"Do you want me to accompany you back to the palace?" Fang Linyuan was taken aback.

Zhao Pu raised his eyebrows as a matter of course: "You are ready." ”

"Did I promise to go with you?" Fang Linyuan retorted to him.

"But it's true that you've always had a love for me." Zhao Pu calmly stated the facts.

"Who ...... to you"

Fang Linyuan felt a chill all over his body.

He must have known that he liked a femme fatale...... I knew it earlier, it was better to die in Yumen Pass!

He really couldn't say the four words of deep love, and gritted his teeth and said: "...... Can you stop talking about it? ”

Zhao Pu shrugged his shoulders indifferently, not understanding what he cared about.

"So, you have to think clearly. I can find evidence that makes the emperor think that I have disgusted you, but ......"

"But with my life in the house, you won't stay any longer." Fang Linyuan interrupted him coldly.

Zhao Pu nodded approvingly.

"Can you get a new move?" Fang Linyuan asked him.

"Moves are never old or new, they are only useful." Zhao replied.

"You ......"

"It's you, if you want to change to a new object of affection as soon as possible, you can avoid a lot of troubles." Zhao Pu raised his eyes and looked at him and reminded lightly.

Fang Linyuan: "......." ”

This man is not only ruthless, but also extremely bad. Grabbed his weakness and threatened repeatedly, and when he found his sore spot, he stretched out his finger and poked it vigorously.

One breath was blocked in the lung tube, and after a long time, Fang Linyuan held back a sentence.

"Okay, I'll act with you. In a few days, I will return to the border pass, and I will not return to the capital if I have nothing to do, and I will not hinder your business. When you are done, the two of us will be reconciled, and there will be nothing to do with each other from then on. ”

Speaking of this, he took a deep breath, stared at Zhao Xuan with his eyes, and said fiercely.

"But if you want to mention the stupid things I have done for you, I will give my life and burn your jade."

Ah, my eyes are red with anger.

He just kindly advised the other party to throw away the burden such as love as soon as possible, but somehow angered him.

Looking at Fang Linyuan's cold and threatening expression, Zhao Pu was not displeased, but had some vivid interest from the bottom of his heart.

It is like a fierce wind blowing through a glacier covered with snow all year round, but only a burst of fine snow is raised, and from a distance, it looks like a light veil fluttering on the ice that has been covered with snow for many years.

Zhao Xuan's eyebrows moved slightly, and the corners of his mouth rose by two points.
