Dayan first waste material

Chapter 28 Did he offend His Royal Highness?
On the day of the third prince's funeral, every household in the capital hung white silk, and thousands of people mourned for him. The emperor had a decree that all people in the Yan Dynasty were not allowed to hold weddings, enjoy themselves or make noise during the funeral period for seven days.

In order to avoid mistakes, all major restaurants and teahouses in the capital are closed, and brothels are also closed one after another. These seven days have suffocated the people in the capital.

For example, Chen Yuean.

Just after the funeral, Chen Yue'an went to Shen's mansion and asked Shen Sitang to go out to eat meat. Seeing his anticipation, Shen Sitang couldn't bear to refuse, and followed him to Huamanlou.

Chen Yue'an took her to sit at the square table by the window on the second floor. Downstairs was Changhua Street where people come and go, and the shouts of vendors were endless. It was a good place to enjoy the folk customs of the capital.

Red bean cakes and crystal elbows are must-orders, and there are many other foods, filling a large table.

"Qian Ning, try this red bean cake, isn't it much more delicious than the Yichunyuan's?"

Shen Sitang took a sip and nodded in his expectant eyes.

Chen Yue'an put the crystal elbow in front of her again: "Try this elbow again, it will be unique in the city!"

Shen Sitang took a sip as he said, and affirmed: "It's delicious."

"Right!" Chen Yuean felt relieved, picked up his chopsticks and started to eat: "I said I would treat you to dinner last time, and I've been thinking about it all the time."

Shen Sitang nodded, and affirmed Chen Yuean's character: "Brother Chen really does what he says."

"That's right!" Chen Yue'an said with a smug smile, "I'm really happy today."

Shen Sitang answered casually: "What? Brother Chen is not happy these days?"

Chen Yue'an sighed, and complained to Shen Sitang: "You don't know, I'm out of luck, do you remember the day we went to Yichun Court to investigate the case?"

Shen Sitang nodded: "I remember, what's wrong?"

Chen Yue'an gritted his teeth: "I don't know who filed a complaint in front of the Dugong, saying that I was negligent in my duty and that it was indecent to take a girl like you to a brothel. The Dugong was so angry that he fined me half a year's salary."

"Ah? Didn't you explain the reason to the Duke?"

"I said, Duke Du doesn't care about these things. What Duke Du means is that if I want to investigate the case secretly, I have to hide from people's eyes and ears. If I can't, I have to confess."

Shen Sitang comforted him: "Brother Chen has been fined his salary, why don't I treat him this time."

Chen Yuean waved his hand and said indifferently: "It's all right, it's just half a year's salary, it's just my daily expenses, brother, I have money, you don't need to be stressed if you open it up."

Shen Sitang understood it, and she said that Chen Yue'an had the smell of a rich second generation, and she was familiar with this temperament.

"Hey..." Chen Yue'an suddenly stretched his neck and looked downstairs: "Is that the carriage of His Highness the Sixth Prince?"

Shen Sitang heard the words "six princes", and subconsciously looked downstairs, and he saw the familiar luxury carriage, and Zhou Zifu and Tang Yihui riding on both sides.

It is self-evident who is sitting in the carriage.

Chen Yue'an shook his head incomprehensibly: "The sixth prince is going to play chess with Duke Du again? Anyway, he can't beat Duke Du. What's the matter?"

This direction is indeed where the Inspectorate is.

"The sixth prince often plays chess with Duke Du?"

Chen Yue'an nodded: "That's right, His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince spends at least half of every year playing chess with the Governor in the Inspector's Office, rain or shine."

Shen Sitang asked curiously: "Your Majesty didn't say anything?"

Most emperors are suspicious, and it is inevitable that the prince will be criticized if he gets so close to the important officials of the court.

Chen Yue'an stuffed a piece of crystal elbow into his mouth, and said inarticulately: "Other princes may say, but His Majesty loves the sixth prince the most, no matter what he does, he is conniving, even the sixth prince has not been crowned king. To move out of the imperial palace, His Majesty followed suit and even gave him such a big mansion."

Shen Sitang propped his chin, his eyes fell on the luxurious carriage, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Suddenly Zhou Zifu looked up and met Shen Sitang's eyes. He was slightly stunned and then nodded to Shen Sitang, who smiled politely back.

As the carriage drifted away, Chen Yue'an greeted Shen Sitang for dinner and chatted with her.

Jun Tingyan sat in the luxurious carriage and closed his eyes to rest, when he suddenly heard Zhou Zifu's voice: "Your Highness, my subordinates saw Miss Shen just now."

As soon as Zhou Zifu finished speaking, Tang Yihui continued on the other side: "I saw it too. You are eating at Huamanlou. The person sitting opposite seems to be Zuo Yushi from the Inspectorate?"

"Yes, it is Mr. Chen, the left censor."

Tang Yihui muttered: "How could Miss Shen have dinner with Master Chen? She is not from the Inspectorate."

Zhou Zifu winked at him, glanced at the carriage, and said, "Master Chen and Miss Shen have worked together, and it's normal to have a meal together."

Tang Yihui responded with a dry smile: "Yes, yes, it's normal!"

The Junting Banquet in the carriage did not speak from the beginning to the end, and Zhou Zifu and Tang Yihui did not dare to speak anymore.

-

By the lake, in the octagonal pavilion.

Fu Yun, the chief inspector of the Procuratorate, is playing chess with the sixth prince Jun Tingyan. The two of them come and go, and they have already played two games.

"Your Highness's chess skills are becoming more and more exquisite." Fu Yun was dressed plainly as usual, with a gentle and elegant smile on his face.

Jun Tingyan put the sunspots on the chessboard in his hand, and said indifferently: "It's a pity that I can't win against Duke Du."

"The game of chess is not about winning or losing, but about the overall situation."

"But if you lose, you lose, and if you win, you win."

"Your Highness is still too persistent."

Jun Tingyan settled down again, and suddenly changed the subject: "Why didn't you see You Yushi when you came here today? Is there any case from the Procuratorate recently?"

Fu Yun looked up at him and smiled: "Huai Chuan? He's not on duty today."

"Oh?" Jun Tingyan said indifferently: "I saw Zuo Yushi eating there when I passed Huamanlou in the main hall, so I thought he was taking a rest today."

Fu Yun raised his eyebrows calmly: "It may be that the inspector's lunch is not to his liking, and Yue An came from a wealthy family, so he has a picky mouth."

"The food in the Inspector's Office needs to be improved. The only son of the richest man in the Yan Dynasty, the Chen family, is dedicated to serving the court. He cannot be wronged."

Fu Yun nodded: "I obey the order."

Chen Yue'an had lunch with Shen Sitang and drank tea for a while, and wandered back contentedly. He sneezed several times along the way, and when he entered the Inspectorate, he was stopped by an official, saying that the governor was looking for him. Without thinking too much, I went to the Qingya courtyard where Fu Yun was, and saw the Sixth Prince Junting Banquet outside the courtyard.

"I've seen His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince." Chen Yue'an saluted respectfully.

Jun Tingyan stared at him indifferently for a moment, then let out an inaudible chirp before saying lightly: "Excuse me."

Chen Yue'an was a little dazed, and after watching Juntingyan go away, he scratched his head with question marks.

Why do you feel that His Highness the Sixth Highness doesn't like him?Has he offended the Sixth Highness?When?
