Wangfu Shenyuan

Xiao Jin came in and saw Xia An lying on the bed with thin sweat on his face. "Why, where does it hurt?"

Xia An ran away, and the brazier in the house was burning with joy.He laughed twice: "Fortunately, it doesn't hurt very much. I can drink water by myself, and you don't have to come here in a while. Be careful that someone will report to your son."

"Don't be afraid, the young master knows that we have a good relationship. He heard that you were sick, and he wanted to send you an imperial doctor." Xiao Jin sat by the charcoal basin and warmed his hands. "Would you like some hot tea?"

"No need. Can your son hire an imperial doctor?" There are only three imperial doctors in the palace, and there are several non-ranking doctors.The imperial doctor has an official position, and the masculinity of the palace is just like a servant, how can he order the imperial doctor?

Xiao Jin rolled his eyes and said: "Don't underestimate our young master, he can establish his own power in the palace, it is definitely not just relying on the prince's favor."

"That's right, I think your son is very proud and clean, he doesn't seem like someone who can use tricks." Out of the corner of Xia An's eyes, Xia An caught a blank mold showing its corners, and he was busy talking to distract Xiao Jin, and quietly took it. Hook your feet in.

Xiao Jin sighed: "He is just surviving. If a person like him has no means and falls out of favor, he will either be sold or rewarded to the servants for fun, or be killed by the mistress' jealousy. The only way out is to be imprisoned in the mansion for the rest of his life, so at least he will have something to eat, right? He understands that as a man, he will only be abandoned in the end, and he just wants to compete and prolong his good life."

Suddenly realizing what he said, Xiao Jin said anxiously: "Xia An, don't think too much, the prince's affection for you is beyond the reach of others."

Xia An said: "I understand."

When dusk landed, Qingtu sent someone to send some painted invitation cards.Xia An opened it and looked at it carefully, and couldn't help sighing that Qingtu's skills really made him feel inferior.Although the hands are not perfect yet, and the strength is a little lacking, but the brushwork is pure and the lines are natural. If he was born in another family, he might be a shocking talent.It's a pity that a slave life was born.

Find out a pen and write a few copies before Xiaojin comes to deliver his meals.His superiors were pressing him hard, and he was afraid that Qingtu would not be able to sleep tonight. He had nothing to do during the day, and he might have to spend a whole day with him tomorrow.

Xia An deliberately wrote down a copy of the list, but he didn't hand in the list of men's guests.In the dead of night, take out two copies and compare them, hoping to find out something.

It's a big deal to go back and talk about Rongli's words.Thinking of this, Xia An felt a little irritable.Rongli hasn't appeared since he woke up with a fever.

Are you coming back tonight?

The more Xia An thought about it, the more depressed he became, he took out a little sweet-scented osmanthus wine from the newly installed shelf and poured it for himself.Ever since Xiaojin came here, snacks are not enough to eat.

"Before the illness is cured, I will steal my mouth." Rong Li suddenly appeared, dodged the wine jar and poured it all into his stomach.

Xia An pursed her lips quietly, but looked up seriously: "It's been done a long time ago, it's been almost three days."

"Blame me for not coming to see you?" Rong Li grabbed Xia An's slender waist and said regretfully, "If you can gain a few catties by stealing it, it's worth it."

"Hmph. If you think I'm skinny, take someone else with you. Isn't the side concubine with a round face? The prince must like it very much."

"Hmph again." Rong Li scolded with a smile.It's really nice for Xia An to say such a flirtatious remark occasionally.Picking up the list on the table casually, Rong Li looked at it carefully, the more he saw the eyebrows were getting closer.He hadn't seen the list of banquets yet, the concubine only sent someone to report to him, saying that the list would be decided with Hua Ying Yuan tomorrow, unexpectedly, he saw it in A Du Yuan today.

Xia An tentatively asked: "Rongli, is there anything wrong with the list?"

"No, you don't have to worry about it. You're not on sick leave, so why are you still busy?" Rong Li cleared his expression, saw two lists, one was clearly in the font of Xia An's beautiful hairpin flower, and asked: "This one Can you give it to me, if not, I will copy it for you."

Originally Xia An was very disappointed when he heard the first half of Rongli's words, but then he heard that the list he had copied could help Rongli, so he felt happy again, and said with a smile: "My lord's calligraphy is magnificent, if you can, of course please give it to me. "

"Heh, I'm getting more and more naughty." Rong Li sat down with his pen in hand, Xia An stood beside him grinding ink.The night was quiet, as if the slightest noise could disturb the beautiful world of the two of them.

Rong Li blew on the wet pen and ink, and said proudly: "How about it, look, do our characters look like husband and wife's handwriting when put together?"

"It's just a different style." Xia An looked out.

"Look at what?"

Xia An asked suspiciously: "Why hasn't Xiao Jin come to bring me dinner until now?"

"You haven't had dinner yet, are you hungry?" Rong Li asked first.

"I'm not hungry. I ate a lot of pastries in the afternoon. I'm just worried about Xiao Jin. He has to come here several times during the day if he has nothing to do. Why didn't he come after lunch?" Even if he is busy, he should talk to He Cheng Hello.

Rong Li put the list in his sleeve, got up and said, "I'll go and have a look. If there's nothing wrong, I won't be coming back." After saying that, he didn't dare to look at Xia An's expression, and fled away.

Xia An was extremely annoyed. In a few days' time, what was it that he came and had to leave without saying a few words?After putting on his clothes and tying up his hair, when he opened the door, a gust of cold wind hit his face, Xia An suddenly felt a sore nose.After taking a few deep breaths, he pretended to be nonchalant and entered the second courtyard.

There is no one in the second courtyard, and there is no one in the first courtyard.

Xia An was shocked, what happened could turn the busy Adu courtyard into an empty courtyard.He was thinking about whether to go to the Confucian Academy, but suddenly something that looked like a black bat fell down.

"My lord, please stop and go back to your room." The dark guard knelt on the ground and said loudly.

There were a few times when Rongli sent people to deliver things, but there were always black shadows flying around, not to mention the face, even the figure could not be seen clearly.This is the hidden guard that Rongli mentioned.

Xia An asked: "Why, I want to see where the people in the yard have gone?"

"Young master is not in good health, let's go back to the room and rest." The dark guard said firmly.

Xia An asked: "Then can you tell me where everyone has gone?"

"The subordinates don't know, the subordinates are just following orders to protect the safety of the young master."

Xia An was annoyed: "To protect my safety, or to monitor me?" Rong Li looked down on him in his heart, if he did, why didn't he allow him to help a group, he is a man, not raised in a girl's house in a deep boudoir.

The voice of the dark guard remained unchanged: "My lord, please go back to the room, this is the master's order."

It is the command of the master.Master's order.master.Xia An suddenly recalled what Xiao Jin said before, that a man will never end well when he is entrusted to others.Rongli is a noble prince, he already has a lot of wives and concubines, not to mention that he will bring many beauties into the mansion for the sake of his descendants.

They are only temporary.Rongli can treat him well now, what about tomorrow, next year?

Xia An lowered her eyes.If the status is not equal, he will always be in the status of a plaything.The master tells you to go east, but if you dare to go west, someone will come out to stop you.

If they truly love each other equally, shouldn't they be in the same boat?

Turning around and returning to the Third Courtyard, Xia An thought coldly.In fact, he has no right to blame Rongli, Rongli has something to hide from him, and he also kept a secret in his heart, neither of them refused to confide in him, that's why today's situation happened.

If only he hadn't been a slave.Xia An pursed her lips tightly, swallowing all the bitterness.

A sleepless night.On the second day, He Cheng didn't bring breakfast until Sishi, his clothes were wrinkled countless times, and his eyes and brows were full of sleepiness.

"Why did you deliver it so late today, where is Guan Jin?" Xia An asked casually.

He Cheng said: "An accident happened last night, I'm afraid you didn't know about it. When the accident happened, all the people from the first and second courtyards were kicked out. Maybe no one had time to inform you."

"What's the matter, making such a fuss?"

He Cheng sighed: "What else can I do? The concubine found out that Mr. Lan Xiang had leaked the secrets of the mansion to outsiders. She launched an attack last night and arrested Mr. Lan Xiang and Guanshi Jin. Everyone in our courtyard was imprisoned in the big room of the guards' courtyard." Locked up all night, we were all released just now. I remembered that you must have not eaten yesterday, so I went directly to the big kitchen to get you a meal."

"Boss Jin was arrested, is he released now?" Xia An stood up and asked in surprise.

"I don't know. The people from our yard and Lanxiangyuan are not locked together. I heard that they went directly to the dungeon." He Cheng yawned frequently.

Xia An had no choice but to persuade him to go back to Ruo Confucian Academy to rest first.I have no intention of eating, so I put on my robe to go out.This time the hidden guard didn't show up, so Guanshi came in.

"I've seen the steward, can you find out what happened in the courtyard?"

He Guanshi just had a face-to-face meeting with He Cheng, and knowing that Xia An knew about it, he walked in and said, "I don't know the result, I just want to let you know first, don't run around if you have nothing to do recently, so as not to get burned. And , the account book I asked you to calculate a few days ago, okay?"

"The calculations are over, but there were a few muddled accounts in the middle. I was thinking that if I can't wait, I will ask you?" Xia An accompanied Steward He back to the house.

Guanshi He said in a low voice: "Give me the account book first. I'm afraid someone will search it in the next few days, so don't let it out."

Xia An turned it out for him. "Can the steward help me go to the dungeon to see the situation. I get along very well with steward Jin these days, and I don't want to see him in jail."

"Don't worry, the prince stopped the princess from using torture on Mr. Lan Xiang last night, and only locked him up for a detailed investigation. This investigation involves outside the house, and I don't know how many days it will be. The prince does not allow torture. Nothing will happen."

Xia An hurriedly confirmed: "If you don't punish Mr. Lan Xiang, can you not torture the servants?"

"That's what the prince means." Guanshi He said helplessly: "But the princess seems to be holding very important evidence. I don't know what the final result will be. If there is evidence, the prince

Can the Lord not follow the rules? "

Xia An asked: "Steward, my lord will definitely ask you to question me today, can you take me with you?"
