"Young Master, Lord Ouyang and Lord Yan are here. Pell pushed the door open and walked in, placing the snack in her hand on the table.

Zhao Qingyan was slightly stunned: "Which one?"

Pei'er asked puzzled, "What?"

Jin'er went out and took a look: "It's Ouyang Dagongzi and Yan Qigongzi." ”

Zhao Qingyan said: "Invite them directly in, Jin'er will go and bring the Lushan clouds and mist I asked you to prepare last time, and Pei'er will pour tea." "I cleaned up the things on the table briefly.

"Little prince. The two walked in and saluted.

Zhao Qingyan smiled warmly: "Please sit down, two of you." "The eyes are shallow, there is no return salute, and there is no arrogance, just casual and peaceful.

Yan thanked him a few times and sat down, and when he saw that Ouyang Fa was still standing, he stood up again, looking at him quite strangely.

Zhao Qingyan was slightly stunned and said, "Bohe, what's wrong?" looked at Yan Jidao, who was confused, and asked again: "Is there something wrong with you coming over?"

Ouyang Fa hesitated to speak: "The minister came to confess because of his father's affairs. ”

Zhao Qing was puzzled: "Lord Ouyang is worried about the country and the people, what is the crime? Besides, if Lord Ouyang has done something inappropriate, you shouldn't apologize to me." ”

Ouyang Fa suddenly knelt down: "Father's request for transfer is a minister's words to instigate bewitchment, and my father doesn't know about it, and he also asks the little prince to forgive his sins." Yan Jidao also understood the purpose of his appointment to come here, and he was secretly annoyed, but he had no choice but to kneel down together.

Zhao Qingyan was really stunned when he saw Yan kneeling down a few times: "What are you kneeling for? You won't tell me that this matter has anything to do with you, right?" There was a bit of amusement in his eyes. When he was young, Yan Jidao often went into the palace to play, although he and Yan Jidao did not get along, at least they had a bit of old friendship, and they naturally did not sit idly by when they saw him embarrassed.

Yan Jidao was quite embarrassed: "The little prince is joking." ”

Zhao Qingyan saw Pei'er bringing tea, so he said: "This is a chilled herbal tea, and the recipe is something I figured out myself." Shuyuan, can you try it and see if there is anything that can be improved?"

Seeing that he deliberately relieved himself, Yan Jidao naturally thanked him, got up, took the tea cup handed by Pei'er, took a few steps back, and put it on the table.

Zhao Qingyan looked at Ouyang Fa and asked as if unintentionally, "Who asked you to come over and talk to me about this?"

Ouyang Fa couldn't hear anything in his tone, and subconsciously raised his head, Zhao Qingyan's fair face had a shallow smile, and there was no extra emotion. There was no reason in his heart, and he barely calmed down: "When I go back to the prince's words, it's my own meaning." ”

Zhao Qingyan smiled: "Don't be like this, call me little prince, I'm not used to calling the prince." Moreover, my prince is also coming to an end, so it is not appropriate to call it so. ”

Ouyang looked at him in a daze, not understanding what he meant, so he had to say perfunctorily: "The little prince said that he was laughing." ”

Zhao Qingyan waved his hand absently: "Forget it, I won't ask." It doesn't matter who it means anyway, I'm not interested, and I don't plan to pursue it. I'm just an idle prince, and those disputes have nothing to do with me. Pointing to the bag of tea that Jin'er took out, he smiled slightly: "These Lushan clouds and mist were sent by the emperor's uncle, and they should not be available in normal times." I don't like to drink green tea, so you can bring it back to Lord Ouyang. ”

As Zhao Qingyan said, the clouds and mist of Lushan Mountain are tribute, and there is almost no way to get them in ordinary times. Eight taels of Lushan clouds and mist are directly given away, which is definitely a big deal. But let yourself be handed over...... Ouyang Fa thought secretly in his heart, but his face did not show it at all, he opened his mouth to thank him, got up and took it: "Thank you, little prince." ”

Zhao Qingyan waited for him to sit down before he said, "Shuyuan, you say, what did you come to me today?"

Yan Jidao glanced at Ouyang Fa, and when he saw that he turned his gaze, he replied casually: "Bohe said that the little prince brought a pen wash from the previous dynasty, and invited me to come with him and ask the little prince to take it out for us to feast our eyes, so I came over together." ”

Zhao Qingyan patted his forehead in annoyance: "What a mistake, if I let my father know that I spent a lot of money to buy playthings behind his back, I'm afraid I will have another lesson." "Tell Jin'er to wash the pen and get it.

Yan Jidao chuckled and said, "I remember that when my father was here, he also reprimanded me many times for my habit of wanting to buy things regardless of my primary and secondary views. There was a faint pain in his eyes.

Zhao Qingyan looked at him seriously and asked, "Do you have something on your mind?" Since Yan Cheng left, your spirit seems to have declined a lot. Is there any embarrassment?"

Yan Jidao smiled and said: "Xie Xiaowang remembers it, and I thank Your Majesty for his pity, and there is no embarrassment, but I miss my father a lot." ”

Zhao Qing didn't say much: "That's it, that's good." He stopped at a polite inquiry, and then did not deliberately look for a topic, but lowered his eyes to look at a few pages on the table. The door was open, and shredded light on the table, and the candle that had been lit before was not extinguished. Zhao Qingyan, who had not recovered from a serious illness, was pale, his long hair was scattered on the green shirt on his shoulders, and his posture was calm and quiet.

"Little Lord doesn't plan to go out to play?" Yan opened his mouth a few times, breaking the silence.

Zhao Qingyan asked, "What does Uncle Yuan mean?"

Yan Jidao was not too restrained, and replied naturally: "I haven't seen you participate in any banquets and songs, aren't you interested?"

Zhao Qingyan had a hint of helplessness on his face: "It's not that I'm not interested." My father was always worried that I would drink secretly and wouldn't let me out. ”

Yan Ji didn't believe it: "It's really not that the little prince cultivates his self-cultivation and doesn't want to drink at the same table with us mortals?"

Zhao Qingyan smiled lightly: "How come? It's just that I'm used to being alone, and I always feel a little noisy." If Uncle is in the mood, when my grounding is over, he will definitely ask me to participate. ”

Ouyang Fa silently looked at his smile, and secretly thought in his heart: "There is no reluctance at all, either it is really like this, or the disguise is too deep." This person...... In any case, it should not be provoked. ”

Yan Jidao said: "Then don't shirk the little prince at that time." ”

Zhao Qingyan nodded and responded: "I hope that Uncle Yuan doesn't dislike me for being stupid." ”

Yan Jidao smiled in surprise: "Who doesn't know that the little prince has been talented since he was a child, and he can write and martial arts." If the little prince is still stupid, then the world is afraid that no one in the world will be able to pick out a smart one. ”

Zhao Qingyan snorted half-jokingly: "I haven't seen you for a few years, how did Shu Yuan learn to say such flattering words with a clear conscience?"

Yan Dao pretended to sigh: "Where did I compliment? It's just the truth, but the little prince said that he has a bad conscience, how heartache does it make me?"

Zhao Qingyan smiled: "If others praise me so much, I won't think it's a compliment, if it's replaced by Yan Qigongzi, then I'm really ashamed." ”

Yan blinked a few times: "Little prince, is this praising me?"

Zhao Qingyan didn't admit it, but replied to him with a smile: "It's okay if you think it's as Uncle Yuan thinks." It just so happened that Jin'er brought the pen wash, and Zhao Qingyan motioned for her to take it directly to Yan and said: "When it comes to identifying these things, Uncle Yuan has always been good at it, by the way, help me see how much this brush wash is worth?"

Yan Jidao took it, looked at the sunlight carefully, and praised: "This is a good thing, although it is not necessarily expensive in terms of value, but if it is for those who love it, it is an excellent collector's item." ”

Zhao Qingyan asked, "If Shu Yuan bids, how much are you willing to pay?"

Yan Jidao groaned slightly, and said decisively: "At least five hundred taels, at most one thousand taels can be given." ”

Zhao Qingyan's eyes lit up: "I won't tell you, I just spent five hundred taels to buy this pen wash." ”

Yan Jidao's eyes were completely attracted by the pen wash in his hand, and it took a long time to remember to reply: "The little prince is really discerning, but he found a good thing." ”

Zhao Qingyan looked at him with his cheeks raised, and couldn't help but smile slightly when he saw his love for him: "I said, Shuyuan, if you really like it, how about I give you five hundred taels?"

"Let me?" Yan looked up in surprise, as if he was a little incredulous, and blurted out that he was about to agree, and the words were about to come out, but he was suddenly stunned by the thought of something, and the light in his eyes slowly dimmed. Seeing that Zhao Qingyan was still waiting for his reply, he smiled: "Little Wangye, this thing is unattainable, won't people feel distressed if they give it up like this?"

Zhao Qingyan tilted his head: "How could it be? I just bought these for a while, rather than staying here with me and letting it dust, it is better to pass it on to the person who cherishes it, and it does not live up to its former owner." ”

Yan nodded a few times: "What the little prince said is very true, but it is not my wish to let the little prince cut his love so painfully, it is better for the little prince to keep it and cherish it." ”

Zhao Qingyan didn't force it, and smiled slightly: "It's okay like this, after all, when you meet it, you also have a fate with it." ”

Yan Jidao echoed: "What the little prince said is very true. ”

Seeing that the two of them were silent, Zhao Qingyan frowned lightly, held his forehead and coughed a few times. Jin'er understood, stepped forward quickly, and asked with concern: "Is the young master tired?"

Yan Jidao and Ouyang Fa hurriedly got up: "The little prince has just recovered from a serious illness, he should rest more, we are disturbed, and please don't blame the little prince." ”

Zhao Qingyan smiled slightly, and her voice was a little weak: "It's okay, my body has always been like this, you don't have to blame yourself for this." After a pause, he added, "I'm not in good health, so I'll keep you for a short time." If it's convenient for you, come over at any time to pass some free time. ”

The two also followed with a few polite words and bowed and retired.

"Jin'er went to see off the two adults on my behalf. After sending them away, Zhao Qingyan let out a sigh of relief, leaned back in the chair, and picked up the pen and washed it casually.

Ran Haoxuan walked out of the shadow where he was hiding and stood beside the young master.

Zhao Qingyan turned his head to look at him: "What's the matter? Didn't you have a good relationship with Yan Qi in the past?

Ran Haoxuan shook his head: "That's young after all, it's better to have less contact now." ”

Zhao Qingyan chuckled twice: "You don't like to see people anymore." ”

Ran Hao was silent, and only spoke up after a while: "The young master only came back to the palace from the palace yesterday, and Ouyang Gongzi came today." ”

Zhao Qingyan lowered his eyes and played with the pen, carelessly: "Who said it wasn't? Raising his head, he casually handed the pen wash to Ran Haoxuan: "But you don't have to understand what he wants to do, just know what I'm going to do." ”

Ran Haoxuan looked at the things in his hand, slightly puzzled: "Young master, this is?"

Zhao Qingyan closed his eyes and said leisurely: "Send it to Yan Qi." ”

Ran Haoxuan's expression became a little solemn: "Hasn't the young master always rejected contact with people in the imperial court?"

"People from the imperial court?" Zhao Qingyan laughed a few times, "I live in the capital in front of the prince, and in front of the privy deputy envoy of Ouchi, who has a close relationship with the imperial court, what do you say about contact? Don't worry, I don't have any idea of winning over forces, and it's too late for me to hide." I just want to see if he can take my stuff and if he dares to take it. ”

Ran Haoxuan frowned: "Is this necessary?"

Zhao Qingyan tapped his fingers on the armrest and laughed: "Of course there is no need for this, I'm just a little curious, curious why he didn't find a force to attach to, and would rather be so down." Is it proud, or is it ......" is gone.

Ran Haoxuan was not a person who would ask more, so he just said, "I understand." He bowed slightly, and walked away quickly.

The person who closed his eyes opened his eyes, with a little smile in his eyes, but more of a stunned: "Or is it because of Yan Cheng that he is unwilling to attach himself to the prince?"
