Donggong Zhangjiao

Chapter 83 The Second Prince

As soon as the prince returned to the palace, he was the first one to go to Biluo Zhai. In the eyes of the servants, Fang Yun was naturally favored.

So at lunch the next day, there was an extra dish of steamed crabs on Fang Jun's dining table.

"Hey, this is a rare item. I don't have such a good thing in my share. How many months has it been?"

Seeing this dish, Fang Yoon made fun of it.

Yuan He was directing the two little maidservants to prepare meals, and laughed when he heard this.

"It's the end of November. It's hard for the dining room to get this. I think it was brought up by His Royal Highness at the princess's birthday banquet last time. The people in the dining room thought you liked this. It's not Baba's idea. Honorable."

Step on the low and hold the high, this has always been the case in the palace.

In the past, not only did Fang Yun not have any support from her natal family, but her natal family was also Pei Yao's political enemy, so her life was not easy.

Although the crown princess is in charge, there are many things in the share, but the quality is not very good, unlike now, there are good things that are not in the share.

I have to sigh that being favored has the benefits of being favored.

Fang Jun curled his lips and sat down.

"It's a pity that I don't like crabs very much. I couldn't eat crabs before. I thought it was fresh, so I just wanted to try it. It made them misunderstand."

"Whether you want to eat it or not is one thing, but it's another thing for the dining room to curry favor with you. Now that the crabs are served, would Emperor Liang want to reward them?"

Qing Rong came over to serve her and asked in a low voice.

"Give it a reward. When you are favored, you don't form good karma. When you lose favor, no one will accept your advances." Fang Yun said calmly.

These words are also unreasonable.

Qingrong nodded, then went to the house to find a purse, filled it with some broken silver and handed it to Yuanhe, and asked him to take it to the dining room as a reward.

On the side of the dining room, Fang Jun's reward, the eunuch in charge, smiled like a flower.

Pulling Yuan He and said, "In the future, Concubine Liang wants to eat something new, just tell me, father-in-law, if you want to drink a little wine occasionally, you will come to our place, and I will personally cook two appetizers for you! "

"You have such filial piety, I will definitely tell Di Liang when I go back."

Yuan He smiled and patted Guan Shi on the shoulder.

After lunch, Fang Jun is not sleepy today, so he plays chess with Qing Rong and Yan Wei.

The two maids treated her alone, and they still had a relationship.

Now Fang Yun's chess skills have improved a lot, mainly because Pei Yao gave her a game record of endgame games, and she used this to practice, and the effect was better than playing against others.

After all, little maids like Qing Rong and Yan Wei are not good at chess, so practicing with them is of little use.

After an hour, I felt a little numb from sitting, so I got up and walked around the room twice.

Just thinking about finding something else to pass the time, someone came to the courtyard.

It's Fuxi in the front yard.

"Slave pays respects to Fang Liangdi."

"Excuse me." Fang Yun said softly, "I don't know why Eunuch Fu is here?"

Fuxi smiled and cupped her hands, "The slave is ordered by His Highness to ask Emperor Liang to serve the pen and ink in the front yard."

This was the first time that Fang Yun had never served pen and ink in the front yard.

After listening, just smile.

"Then please sit down for a while, father-in-law, have a cup of hot tea, and allow me to change into clothes."

"Hey, Di Liang just go, the servant is waiting outside."

Fuxi saluted very respectfully.

Seeing his attitude, Fang Yun guessed that Pei Yao was in a good mood today.

This Fuxi was Hong Zheng's apprentice, the second in command in the front yard, and also served Pei Yao close by. Looking at his expression, one could guess a bit.

After entering the house, he changed his clothes, changed his makeup and hair briefly, and went out.

I never thought that it was a coincidence that she came here. When I walked near Pei Yao's study, I saw a man who seemed to be about the same age as Pei Yao walking towards him, as if he was looking for Pei Yao.

The man was wearing a royal blue cross-collar gown, jade crown and silver boots, and his eyebrows were warm. Although there was a bit of honesty, it did not affect the handsomeness of the facial features, but it added a bit of amiability.

Upon closer inspection, it seems that the nose and chin are somewhat similar to the First Prince's.

"Hey, why is the Second Highness here?" Fuxi's voice sounded.

Fang Yun withdrew his gaze and understood.

This is the second son of Emperor Chengjing, the second prince born of Concubine Chen Gui.

Concubine Chen is not favored, and the Second Prince is usually unknown, unlike the First Prince, who walks around everywhere. Fang Yun has hardly heard anything about this Second Highness, and this is the first time he has seen him.

After approaching, Fang Yun bowed and saluted first.

"My concubine is Liangdi Fang, and I have met His Royal Highness the Second Prince."

"Fang Liangdi is free of courtesy." The second prince hurriedly said, and looked at the door of Pei Yao's study in embarrassment, "It's not a coincidence, I'm here to find the emperor to discuss some government affairs."

He is also a man with wives and concubines, so he naturally knew that Fang Yun appeared here, and Fu Xi was with him, so Pei Yao must have specially summoned him.

He came to see his elder brother to discuss matters, but met his elder brother summoning his concubine's room to come over to add fragrance to the red sleeves. For the thin-skinned second prince, it must be a little embarrassing.

But Fang Yun seemed much more generous, and said to Fuxi sideways.

"National affairs are the most important thing, I'll wait elsewhere first, and my father-in-law will pass on the message for His Highness the Second Highness first."

Fuxi responded, and found a little maid to come and take Fang Yun to rest elsewhere, and then went into the house to communicate.

The second prince glanced at Fang Jun's back, and there was some surprise in his eyes.

As for Fang Jun's identity, he had heard of it, the abandoned son thrown into the East Palace by the Fang family, but he did not expect that such a concubine was completely different from what he had imagined.

It's no wonder that with such a background, he can still be favored by the emperor's brother.

He had seen Fang Pei before, but now that he looked at it, he felt that Fang Pei behaved so calmly, more like a prostitute.

Withdrawing his gaze, he heard the door of the study room being opened, and Hong Zheng came out to welcome him in, also very politely.

Entering the room, I saw Pei Yao sitting behind the desk, reading the booklet, and only raised his head when he heard the sound.

"Ze Yi is here." Pei Yao smiled gently, and pointed to the chair next to him, "Sit down."

"Brother Xie."

The second prince bowed his hands and saluted. After sitting down, he took the tea that Hong Zheng handed over, took a sip, and said seriously.

"Your brother is here to talk to Brother Huang about the affairs of the household department."

Pei Yao nodded, "But about the distribution of money and rations in the army? Is there any news about Lin Shilang?"

The servant Lin he was talking about was Lin Shengshu, the left servant of the household department, the father of the second prince and concubine, and also the father-in-law of the second prince.

"Well, my father-in-law said that Master Chen seems to want to deduct some of the military rations in Huizhou. He said that Huizhou is not a military important place, and there are not many troops. Moreover, the local food taxes collected in Huizhou are also quite a lot, so there is no need to allocate it from Beijing. many."

After the second prince finished speaking, Pei Yao's eyes darkened.

Huizhou is the territory of the Marquis of Nanning, and the Marquis of Nanning is the father of Concubine Yang, who withheld Huizhou's food. This is the person who wants to touch him.

"Elsewhere, what's the difference between the more lonely lists?" Pei Yao asked.

The second prince shook his head, "Not much has changed elsewhere, only the military rations in Huizhou have been deducted."

"Okay, Gu knows, please ask Lin Shilang to watch this matter first, and then think about it." Pei Yao said calmly.

The two talked about other things, and within half an hour, the second prince got up and left.

After he left, Hong Zhengcai came in to remind him.

"Your Highness, Fang Liangdi is still waiting, do you want to invite me over?"
