The Favored Concubine: The Doting Prince

Chapter 84 Attending the Banquet

Yuan Ye's mansion is far away from the imperial palace and occupies a large area in the core area of ​​the prosperous Chenliang capital.

In fact, the house that the old emperor gave at the beginning was not very big because the location was very prosperous.

But when the big house was completed, he bought several nearby houses, demolished them, and built an extremely luxurious Seventh Prince Palace together.

Yuan Ye naturally didn't know that it was his subordinates who were being overly ostentatious in his name.

Of course, there were also people who volunteered to fill in their own houses to add bricks and tiles to the Seventh Prince's Palace.

After Yuan Ye moved back, he only took a rough look at a few houses and the study, and chose a quiet and elegant courtyard in a remote location as his resting place. He did not even stroll around the entire palace.

Every flower and every blade of grass in this yard is a famous product, brought from all directions and even from distant countries.

Even the flowers painted on the lanterns hanging at the gate of the mansion were from famous artists and are priceless.

At that time, Yuan Ye stood in the yard and sighed secretly. He didn't know how much money and how many people were extorted and oppressed in the name of building a house for him.

He didn't care how much criticism he had received, because if the water was too clear, there would be no fish. He needed the support of these people now.

That night Yuan Ye lay in his new house, lying on the large carved rosewood bed, and he could not fall asleep.

He missed his life in the army at that time, a tent, a campfire, a bowl of strong liquor, a makeshift bed of wooden boards covered with animal skins that smelled like leather, the occasional sounds of wild beasts outside, the whispers of soldiers, the sound of strong winds, and the crackling sound of burning wood in the campfire.

He didn't like these layers of courtyards and gauze curtains.

He even found it difficult to breathe.

Fortunately, I brought the kitten with me, who kept me company late into the night and whispered to me softly. It was late at night and the dew was heavy, and the spring rain fell on the flowers, making them look delicate and beautiful.

Such a large yard requires a lot of people, but Yuanye doesn't like a lot of people.

But the soldiers in the army were unable to handle these matters, so the imperial concubine selected some capable and sensible people from the palace to handle the chores at home.

Originally, there were two concubines in the house, both of whom were sent to the courtyard by the imperial concubine.

It was just that the kitten had only been there for a few days, and when Yuan Ye was not around, the two men ran into the yard to provoke him. One of them was almost slashed in the throat by the kitten's claws.

Yuan Ye came back and gave them enough money to kick them out.

First, I don't have any feelings for them. I don't even know their names. I only know that one loves pink clothes and the other loves green clothes. I use this to distinguish them. If they changed their clothes one day, I would probably not be able to recognize them.

Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Yuan Ye doesn't want any innocent people to die here.

Late that night Yuan Ye asked the kitten where in the yard he wanted to play?

The kitten pointed to the roof, and the two of them sat side by side, looking at the starry sky.

Yuan Ye was very surprised. The yard was full of rare treasures and every step brought a new scene, all carefully made by craftsmen, but she insisted on going up to the roof.

The little wildcat said in its cold, yet sweet voice, "It's full of people down there, and it smells like people. It's quieter up there, and the air is better."

Yuanye couldn't refute it because he thought so in his heart.

He doesn't like intrigue, doesn't like flattery, and can't learn to be worldly-wise. All of this suffocates him.

But if you want to get there, you have to give something.

There is no use in just going out to fight wars, even if you have military achievements.

Chen Liang not only needs these, but also needs personnel transfers to balance interests.

How to balance the forces of all parties is what an emperor should do, otherwise he will just be a reckless man.

That day, the imperial concubine said that a banquet should be held to celebrate his housewarming.

It is also a strategic strategy, which allows those who have contributed or want to contribute to have a chance to get close to him.

At first he didn't want to do it. But later Zhufeng asked if he should invite the prince to come, after all, he had already set up a new prince's mansion and moved out of the palace.

The figure that flashed through Yuanye's mind at that time was that delicate yet unyielding girl.

He picked up his pen and wrote the visiting card, writing every word very carefully. He had not written so seriously in a long time. It was like the first time he learned calligraphy from the old master in the palace.

Some people you haven't seen for a long time, it's nice to meet them occasionally.

The day before the banquet, Cuitao took out several red dresses and matching jewelry from a big box and asked Fanyue to choose.

Fan Yue was drinking tea in the yard and pointed at the simplest set.

"Taozi, what do you think if I don't bring all this mess?" Fan Yue's tone was somewhat flattering.

It had been a long time since she had walked around with such a mess on her head.

"Of course it's fine if you say so, but the princess will also be there, and I don't know what she will think if she sees it."

Fan Yue was silent. Forget it, so that Fan Qiu would not feel that the prince was treating her harshly. If she married here, her life would be worse than at home, then Yuan Yike would be miserable.

The next day, Fan Yue got up two hours earlier and spent a lot of effort on everything from makeup to jewelry.

If it wasn't for meeting Fan Qiu, Fan Yue wouldn't bother to go out. Yuan Yi had packed up by now, but he didn't put much emphasis on dressing up today.

He didn't even wear a red robe. Instead, he wore a black robe that was embroidered with some flowers designed by Fan Yue, interwoven with dark gold and red threads. The flowers shone slightly in the sunlight and looked lifelike.

Today, Yuan Yi's hair was just tied up casually with a headband. Ever since Fan Yue told him last time not to force himself, those restrictive hair crowns were carried to the warehouse.

After Fox's unremitting efforts, Yuan Yi looked much more energetic during this period of conditioning, and the frequency of his coughing also decreased a lot.

But his body was still a little thin, and the clothes swayed on him. He was so tall that he stood there like a branch in the wind.

Fortunately, I have that beautiful face.
