Run away if you are lonely

Chapter 33 If He Doesn't Come

The last night of the year before was like playing a theatrical scene. There was a bang and a splash in the vast ocean of the New Year, and it quickly subsided without a single gong.When the crown prince, who had suffered a dark loss, rolled up the quilt and went back to his bed, he never expected that the days in the Daqian Palace were just the beginning.

The 16th year of Tianfu, the first day of the Lunar New Year.

In the early morning, the first ray of sunlight shone into Jingtai Palace, and some spots of light fell on the cabinet next to the window pane.Yuan Xiao closed his eyes when he suddenly heard footsteps.Before doubts surfaced in his mind, he was pulled up from the bed surrounded by a crowd of palace people, dressed and tied his hair, cleaned his face and rinsed his mouth, stuffed a bunch of delicate breakfasts, and stuffed them into the Yi'an Palace of the Empress Dowager.

The empress dowager painted gold and painted flowers, and her makeup was exquisite. She was talking with a group of concubines when she heard the report from the palace: "The crown prince is here." The grandson, who looked like a new year's welcome doll, held Yuan Xiao's hand with clasped palms, and called out "Xiao'er", which made him feel affectionate.

The confused Yuan Xiao: "?"

Surrounded by a crowd of women, I was at a loss.

Here, Yuan Xiao's 'good days' have just begun.

On the other side, in the high-tent cloud brocade, Wen Guogong, who finally tossed the prince back to the palace, was so sleepy that he couldn't wake up from the sun, and he was bubbling with joy.It's also exhausting to be awake specially to restrain the prince. Wen Yi is done, and it's time to rest and have nothing else to do. How can we not catch up on sleep during the good time?

It was high in the sun, Mr. Wen hadn't gotten up yet, and Wen Ting, who was lingering outside the door, couldn't stay still.He knocked on the door: "Master, am I coming in?" Then he heard the movement inside, but it turned out that there was no sound inside.Wen Ting gritted her teeth, thinking, no, let's go in and have a look, the two of them are fine, why there is no movement for most of the day.

It turned out that Yuan Xiao ran away in the middle of the night, but other people didn't know about it, and now they think they are sleeping together.

Wen Ting was still poking his head there, 'eager to try', but one leg kicked open the door before him.Qin San held the plate in one hand, kicked open the door, and said Wen Ting by the way: "What's the matter with the dilly-dally?"

Wen Ting was stunned, and saw that the third brother had swaggered into the inner room, and quickly slapped his thigh to follow: "Third brother, you can't go in. His Royal Highness is still inside." What if the master hasn't put on his clothes yet? .

But Qin San has already opened the curtain: "Master."

The master nestled under the quilt and shrunk himself into a ball, leaving only his long hair exposed.There was no beauty in Qin San's eyes. He was used to Wen Yi. He patted and bulged, and threatened: "If you don't care anymore, His Highness will demolish the house."

"……what."

Wen Yi closed her eyes and smiled, then lazily said, "Then take it apart."

It happened that the mansion was being refurbished, and he was not required to pay for it.

Moreover.

"The queen mother only has such a precious grandson, and it's too late for Gu to take it with me. Is he still free?" Wen Guogong got under the quilt again, yawned, a little gloating, "I'm afraid it's this palace or that palace. It’s too late to run around every hour to listen to people’s chatter.”

—He was right at all.

Yuan Xiao, who was trapped in Yi'an Palace, pressed his forehead and listened to the silver bell-like laughter of his grandmothers and aunts.

Although Wen Yi is not in the palace, the news of the prince is like flowing water, always on the desk.

Hearing that he was swayed by the empress dowager two days ago, I can't wait to keep it in my heart.In the next three days, they bumped into the second prince Yuan Qiming, and the two of them sneered and ridiculed Ming Ming for a battle. The emperor threw them all in the study to copy big characters, and forcibly rubbed them to the eaves of the palace on the moon.Back at Jingtai Palace, there was Chunlan, the palace maid, with Wang tears in her eyes, teaching him how to learn etiquette and reciting ancient poems, which made the prince lose weight a little bit.

When Qin San was talking to him like this, Wen Yi was drawing pictures there.He was drawing an eagle, the one on the waist.Wen Yan said: "Oh, lost weight? This can be seen."

Qin Suge smiled and said: "It can be seen that he has become extremely thin." Therefore, even the straight brothers in the palace felt the same way.

"He's growing up, so it's better to be thinner." Wen Yi smiled, and then hooked the iron claw of the eagle, "Children grow up fast, and they can grow a lot even after the New Year."

"Seventeen is not young. When Emperor Yuan was seventeen, he had two sons." Qin Suge suddenly thought of something, "Do you think the emperor will marry him?"

Wen Yi shook her head decisively: "Impossible."

Seniors and young are orderly, the first few uncles are not yet married, and it is not the turn of the prince.What's more, he had just returned to Beijing, and it was time to set up his own business.The emperor was not his own father, so apart from the empress dowager worrying about the prince's marriage, he probably couldn't get anyone else.Under Wen Yi's drawing, the eagle has gradually taken shape, and its sharp eyes are shining with green light.Wen Yi's heart suddenly moved: "What about the waist button?"

Qin Suge took it out from his arms and handed it to him.

Wen Yi took it and held it up to the sun.

The eagle was originally made of paint poured into the hook groove, it was dark red, but just now he had a feeling in his heart, when he took it out to shine in the sun, he suddenly found that the eyeballs of the eagle had green in the red.It's just that the green is not very obvious, only when you shake the waist buckle left and right, you can see the green light flashing in it, the green contains gold dust, which can be said to be extremely precious.

This is obviously not an ordinary assassin.

Wen Yi put away the waist buckle and pondered for a while: "No news from Yan Jin?"

Qin Suge shook his head.

The Duke knocked on the table, lost in thought.Yan Jin's actions have always been extremely fast, no matter whether he finds clues or not within three days, there will be an answer.But now it has been six days, but there is no movement, this is not like his style.Did something happen to Yaohai?I haven't heard any rumors in the arena recently.If something happened to Yixuange, it is impossible for Su Ge not to know about it.

"Let's do this." Wen Yi thought for a while, "Find two trustworthy people to go to Yaohai to find out the situation." He raised the waist button in his hand again, and rubbed it with his fingertips, the lines were clear and smooth. "Check in the northwest direction and expand the scope as much as possible. There is only one thing, the person in power with this belt must be either rich or expensive."

Hearing this, Qin San took the waist buckle from Wen Yi's hand, looked carefully at the light several times, and suddenly felt something.

"I seem to have seen this kind of gold dust somewhere."

Wen Yi cheered up: "Oh?"

But Qin San shook his head: "I can't remember it at the moment. How about I go in person."

"No." Wen Yi said, "I can't leave Pingdu for the coming-of-age ceremony of the [-]th prince. There are many and messy people in this mansion, the housekeeper is older, and Brother Wen Ting is too young. If I am in the palace, you You have to stay here."

Qin Suge nodded: "Understood."

Wen Yi had her own way of getting news in the mansion, but Yuan Xiao was finally released.

On the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, the Minister of the Household Department presented a brochure, which recorded all the gold, silver, jewelry, and silk cloth sent to Liangzhou, including when and who escorted them, and who received them when they arrived. hide.The emperor sent someone to invite the prince over and threw the ceremony book to him.

Yuan Xiao, who was finally able to get out of the women's pile, breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the inventory, looked at it one by one, and said, "Some of it is something I have never seen in Liangzhou. The total amount of silver put into the warehouse in Liangzhou is not enough to write in the inventory. "

The emperor snorted, no one would be happy when encountering such a thing during the New Year's Eve.He said with a sullen face: "If the Shangshu's presentation is good, how do you know what's in it and what's not? He has evidence, do you have it?" Empty words have no proof. It's okay to be greedy or the people in the Prince's Mansion are greedy.

If you want to tell the truth from the fake, you have to confront the one in Liangzhou.

Yuan Xiao put away the list and said: "Uncle, don't worry. My son is grateful to Pingdu for taking care of me in Liangzhou for many years, and determined to be grateful to uncle, so when he came from Liangzhou, he specially entrusted the housekeeper to take all the belongings that have been in and out of the warehouse over the years Organize it into a book and bring it with you.”

Emperor Yuan's original intention was just to teach the prince how to be a man, so that he would know that it is good to stretch out the grievances, but he can't just talk about it. cannot be told.Things in this world are inherently unfair.Although he doesn't mean to be biased, you have to give a reason to deal with others.

Who knew this kid——

Actually, really, there is!

Emperor Yuan was stunned for a while, and asked: "Then you present the list. I will compare it with Shangshu one by one."

This is easy to say.

but--

"The son and minister entered the palace alone, and the people and things in the mansion are all under the care of Duke Wen."

That's easy.

Emperor Yuan waved his hand: "Li Dexuan."

Li Dexuan ran over bumpily: "Your Majesty."

"Go." Emperor Yuan moved his fingers, "Bring me Wen Yi." He suddenly thought of something, and stopped Li Dexuan who was about to go out, "Tell him, I not only want to see the inventory of the Prince's Mansion in Liangzhou, but also His people."

Li Dexuan said respectfully: "Yes."

Yuan Xiao, who was standing tall in the palace, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and then disappeared for a moment, Fang said: "I didn't think carefully, and I have to trouble my uncle to ask Wen Guogong to send it specially."

"No problem." Emperor Yuan sat on the chair, without raising his eyes, he just said, "He has not gone to court for ten days, and I have been very lenient to him. It's time to do something for me." Anyway, he is a good banker It's good to keep two.Since you have undertaken a lot of good luck, you have to bear certain responsibilities.He just thought that Wen Yi might only send someone to deliver the booklet, but he didn't show up, so he specially took care of Li Dexuan and asked him to bring Wen Yi over.

The prince hypocritically said: "Then what if the Duke doesn't come?"

"I have made an agreement with Li Dexuan, let him tell the Duke. If he doesn't come—"

"I will let the prince kneel at His Highness until he arrives."

Yuan Xiao who hasn't gloated yet: "?"

None of his business!

Those who were named were caught off guard.

The author has something to say:

Old Wen & Xiao Xiao:?None of my business!
