Wangfu Shenyuan

"Steward, the concubine is so generous." The second-class servant Feng Ling who was promoted by Xia Anxin smiled and said.Now he replaced He Cheng as Xia An's personal servant.

It's not that He Cheng was reprimanded by Xia An because of his alienation from Xia An.He followed Qing Tuxue to make the gift list, and he was already one of the best in the courtyard.The turmoil in the outer courtyard last year caused the Adu Academy to lose a lot of talents.One morning at the end of January, he was suddenly promoted to first-class servant by Xia An, and he was stunned for a long time before he realized that he knelt down to thank him.

But after that, Xia An brought a new third-class boy to serve by his side, and never asked him to come close.No matter how remorseful he was, no matter how active he was, he would not be able to change Xia An's previous attitude of being friendly.

Xia An weighed the weight of the money bag in his hand, and said with a smile: "Well, it's really generous, probably as much as ten taels."

"It must be more than ten taels. A few days ago, Concubine Xi gave ten taels. It doesn't look as big as this time." Feng Ling held the cloak, frowned, and hurried forward two steps to give it to him. Xia An put it on: "It's windy, let's put it on. Shall we go straight back to the yard?"

"No, I want to take a look at Piaoxiangyuan."

Ah Fu was demoted again to be the captain of Piaoxiangyuan, but he was transferred to the third team, and his work was much harder than before. I heard that it was because he offended the manager. When the team went, they only ran back and forth between the Piaoxiangyuan and the rear mountain where the animals were raised, and it was all in the middle of the night, so they would definitely not be in the way of the manager's eyes.Later, when the manager left the mansion, Manager Zhao never brought Ah Fu back.

Xia An is now Concubine Xi's "own person", Princess Wang's "thorn in the side" and someone she will not provoke for the time being, so although in name he can't delay much in the inner court, even if he wanders away, no one will How dare you take him.

"Ah Fu." Xia An knocked on the door.Hearing the answer from inside, he asked Feng Ling to guard the door and went in alone.Ah Fu was putting on his shoes, and the robe was only put on his body symbolically. It seemed that Xia An had disturbed his dream again.

Xia An couldn't help but feel sad: "It must be hard work."

Ah Fu fastened the buttons of his coat, and said with a smile, "I'm used to it, ahem, I don't sleep during the day as usual."

"What did you offend the manager? Why did you get demoted to be the captain of the third team?"

Ah Fu touched the teapot, it was a little cold, so he didn't pour tea for Xia An. After hearing Xia An's words, he lowered his eyes and said, "How dare I offend him? He's a green-haired peacock, ahem, I'm just a A wild pheasant, dare to peck him? By the way, the medicine I asked you to buy for me last time is very useful. Next time, I will bring some in for me. I don’t have it handy right now. Your silver."

"No, it's only a few pennies." In fact, it's half a tael of silver for a set of medicine, which is very expensive.How can Ah Fu afford it? Don't look at Xia An's monthly income, but Ah Fu can't help taking medicine twice a day.He had no choice but to choose Rongli's proposal, to run errands for the masters in the inner courtyard, and earn more money to buy medicine for Ah Fu.Now he rushes to do all the errands, so that the people below have no chance to earn rewards.

Ah Fu glanced at Xia An, his lips moved, but he didn't say anything.

Xia An said: "Let's ask the doctor to take a look. Only by prescribing the right medicine can it be cured. Just rely on the medicine I brought back after describing the symptoms. It depends on whether your symptoms are mild or not. If it doesn't completely heal, you still have a severe cough."

"Look, the doctors outside are not as simple as you said. I am a servant of the inner court, how can I get out to the gate of the palace. Not to mention the doctors in the mansion, how can they come over with my identity, besides, I have no Give them money for their hard work."

"I have." Xia An took out the reward money that the princess just gave, and pushed it to Ah Fu: "It's about a dozen taels here, and the hard work should be enough. With the prescription, even if the government refuses to donate the medicinal materials, let's go It’s better to buy it outside than to eat randomly now.”

Ah Fu refused to take it: "It's too expensive, and it's not a big problem. It's not worth spending so much money. Take it quickly. The medicine you bought was taken carelessly. Aren't I much better? I still want to thank you, It cost me money." Probably because of his illness, Ah Fu's words and actions seemed less sharp than before.

Xia An collected the money and said: "When I entered the Piaoxiangyuan at the beginning of the year, if you hadn't helped me get money to bribe Zhao Dabao, how could I have such a happy life. Now you are more polite to me. Don't you Go find the doctor, I'll go and bring the doctor to you to come to the head office. Just wait." Xia An got up to go after speaking, and the anxious Ah Fu pushed him down.

"Stop making trouble, I don't know how many people should be staring at me if you invite the doctor to Piaoxiangyuan like this. The inferior yard that pours slops, you run like this every day, I am already enough to attract attention." Ah Fu He spoke in a hurry, and coughed again and again.

Xia An poured water for him, touched the teapot, felt sad, and shouted: "Feng Ling, go to the small kitchen to make a pot of hot tea." Feng Ling responded with a voice.Xia An said to Ah Fu again: "It's not very cold now, why don't you still burn a brazier in your room, it's more convenient to drink hot water if you want to."

"The brazier burns a lot of charcoal in a day. I burned out all the charcoal I had last winter. Since the princess took charge of the inner courtyard, all the charcoal has been reduced a lot. Our stewards are shameless in front of the master, and the fragrance is lingering. The hospital is getting more and more sad."

Xia An's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "So it's a lack of charcoal, what's the matter, I have saved a lot, and I will ask Feng Ling to bring you all later."

When the two returned to Adu Courtyard, Xia An immediately asked Feng Ling to deliver charcoal to Ah Fu, and told him to come back after burning the brazier.He waited for Feng Ling to leave, then went back to his room, took off his outer robe and hung it on the newly sent screen.Now he can't change clothes casually, Wei Huang is not coming, and he dare not let others know that he has so many clothes, so he has to insist on changing every two days.But in the eyes of outsiders, he changed his clothes every day, and let Feng Ling send him to wash every day.Everyone in the courtyard knows that the steward doesn't have too many clothes, but he likes to be clean.

Xia An looked at the reduced box of dirty clothes, counted them, and in about half a month, they would be able to wash them in troubled waters like this.It's all because Rongli gave him too many clothes before, if he was asked to go to the big kitchen for a meal, he would have to change if he thought it smelled bad.If it wasn't for Rongli, he wouldn't have to worry so much all day now.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, Xia An punched the clothes hard, and suddenly hit a jade ornament. It's unknown when it got in there, probably he confiscated it himself.Although it didn't hurt very much, he blamed Rong Li for all his crimes, and he was also secretly angry.

Ever since they came back from Fang Mansion, the two have been fighting coldly until now.Rong Li had the cheek to come here at first, but after being rejected several times and even "beaten", Rong Li never came when Xia An opened his eyes again.

Xia An went to bed very early and early every night, then controlled her sleepiness, and fell asleep very late.Sometimes he can't wait for Rongli to come over all night, so he won't sleep all night, until dawn, knowing that Rongli won't come, he will take a nap.

Later, Rongli got Feng Ling's report that one day Xia An's spirit was not good, and he figured out the reason. From then on, he would secretly go to Xia An every night at midnight.It would be too early, he still needs to pamper a lot of people, but he usually doesn't have the habit of staying overnight after pampering, so every time he completes the "task" early, and then rushes to Xia An to report.

He was still unwilling to agree to let Xia An intervene. He could change other things according to Xia An, except this one.It's not that he doesn't trust Xia An's ability, let alone that he looks down on Xia An, but that he is afraid that Xia An will be in danger, and he doesn't want Xia An to come into contact with his bloody world.

This time he insisted not to coax Xia An, but he couldn't help but miss Xia An.So he thought about waiting for Xia An to sleep at night, and went to take a sneak look at Xia An.But every time he went, Xia An pretended to be asleep.Rong Li doesn't point it out, since he loves to pretend, then let's pretend, anyway, it doesn't delay him touching and kissing.

Xia An closed his eyes, his breathing was unsteady, especially when Rong Li touched something that shouldn't be touched, his breathing became uncontrollably heavy.

Every time he saw Xia An frowning tightly and still refused to wake up, Rong Li felt a little excited about his revenge.He would be even more presumptuous, unbuttoning his belt, and letting little Rongli rub against little Xia An, he would still bite, kiss, and suck on Xia An's body, taking pleasure in staring at Xia An's gritted teeth expression.

Then when little Xia An raised his head energetically, he simply put on his pants and left.

Xia An got up, and scolded Rongli, while imagining that Rongli was helping him, but in fact, he solved it with his hands complainingly.

The two fought like this for more than half a month.During these half a month, the palace was considered quiet and peaceful.Whether it's the master or the slave in the mansion, they all secretly heaved a sigh of relief for the peace at this moment.The peace in the mansion is also thanks to the stability of the imperial court, thanks to General Yin obediently returning to the frontier after attending the ceremony of the fifteenth prince's crown prince, and thanks to the second prince's swallowing his anger and not causing any disturbance.

In the purity where everyone was happy, some people couldn't sit still.

Xia An went to sit with Concubine Xi first, and revealed that she would use the warehouse of Aduyuan to organize reforms, and asked to check the warehouse of Mingxuanyuan.No matter how detailed the booklet of Aduyuan's records is, it is better to see the real thing with one's own eyes.Concubine Xi is worried that she doesn't know the foundation of the palace, and she is also afraid that the princess will embezzle the money of the palace after she takes power.As soon as Xia An's idea came out, it was exactly what she wanted.

Since the princess wanted to control the palace, it was impossible for her not to tamper with the warehouse.Concubine Xi asked to go to Mingxuan Courtyard to reconcile accounts, and she went there for a legitimate reason, so there will always be troubles for a while.

Xia An breathed a sigh of relief, it's fine to make a fuss, the palace is so peaceful, he always feels uneasy.

After settling his mind and returning to the room, he saw Wei Huang holding the wine jar and putting it in the corner for him, and there were a lot of snacks on the table.The corner of Xia An's mouth curled up slightly, and when he entered the room, he asked blankly, "What's the matter?"

Wei Huang bowed and said: "My lord, your nanny is here, see you or not?"

"See you." Xia An couldn't hold back his laughter.

The corner of Weihuang's mouth twitched, wondering: "I'm afraid I have to ask the prince?"
