The sound insulation of the room is very good, and the noise from the outside street can hardly be heard. Liu Yin stood there with a bow and hummed silently in her heart, knowing that these officials have bad intentions. If she doesn't come today, maybe something will happen. In this gentle village, who can guarantee whether this person can control him.
"That's right, the spring flowers, autumn moon, piano, chess, calligraphy, calligraphy and painting in this Yanhua Building are all proficient in everything, and there is always one that can satisfy His Highness." Another official also quickly echoed.
The other officials also talked about how beautiful the top sign of the Yanhua Building was, but seeing their highness looking cold, they gradually stopped talking. They originally wanted to use this to win the relationship with the prince, but now it seems that they are afraid If it doesn't work, I have heard that the prince is not close to women, but I didn't expect it to be so.
"It seems that Master Liu often comes here?" Qin Yan suddenly said quietly.
As soon as the words fell, Master Liu's expression changed immediately, and he hurriedly explained, "Your Highness, don't misunderstand, after all, it is under the jurisdiction of the Weichen, so the Weichen has heard of the reputation of this Yanhua Building, and the wife at home is watching it." Seriously, I don't even dare to accept a concubine on weekdays, let alone come here, if I didn't want to clean up the dust for His Highness, I wouldn't dare to come here if I was killed."
After he finished speaking profusely in sweat, the others hurriedly separated themselves, saying that it was their first time coming here, and they were afraid of leaving an impression of extravagance on the other side.
Liu Yin was holding back her laughter all the time, it's fine to deceive a three-year-old child with these words, just watch, after returning to Beijing, these officials will definitely be dismissed and investigated, how dare they embezzle the court's disaster relief money, It is almost impossible to die.
Qin Yan didn't speak, but took a sip from his wine glass, and didn't pursue it any further. The others also heaved a sigh of relief, their hearts beating like drums.
"Why isn't General Fang here?" He asked casually.
Hearing this, the prefect of Suzhou hurriedly replied: "Something happened in the garrison, General Fang said that he would come later, and specially asked the minister to report the crime to His Highness on his behalf."
While speaking, the voice of the bustard suddenly sounded outside the house, "My lord, the girls have already arrived."
Although they are all prostitutes but not prostitutes, for the old bustard, it is just that they have not met a big man. As long as the time is up, there will naturally be no rules not to prostitute themselves, so that her cultivation will not be wasted.
Glancing at His Highness's expression, that Master Liu immediately shouted outside: "Go down, what do you think of my officials!"
Hearing the voice inside, the old bustard suddenly had a strange expression on her face. Mrs. Liu really likes Qiuyue in her building, but she has never been willing to give her to her. Why don't you want it today
But thinking of the unfamiliar guest, she retreated wisely.
Acting like a slave, Liu Yin immediately went forward to fill Qin Yan's glass of wine. Looking at the small white hand, the man glanced at her inadvertently, with a helpless arc on his lips, while holding up the glass to sip mouthed.
Others had noticed this young attendant a long time ago, and felt that the eunuch in the palace was really feminine.
At this moment, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and a burly man in a black suit walked in with big strides. When he saw the people in the room, he immediately knelt down on one knee and said respectfully. Said: "The humble minister is late, and please ask your highness to come down."
The man was in his early forties with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his face was full of awe. Qin Yan looked at her and suddenly smiled, "Since there is something wrong with the garrison, it is naturally the matter of General Fang, but it is too late. A glass of wine can't be avoided."
Hearing this, several other officials immediately echoed, "That's right, that's right, General Fang hastened to punish himself with three cups, otherwise this matter will be difficult."
Seeing this, Fang Jin also laughed out loud, and went over to pick up the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp. After drinking three glasses, he sat down without changing his face, while looking at the man seriously, he said: "Your Highness has the people in his heart, and he came here from a long distance Here, I feel ashamed."
"General Fang is right. When Your Highness comes, the ministers will have a backbone. Presumably, the flood problem will be resolved sooner, and the common people will thank His Highness for your kindness." Others said quickly.
Hearing too much flattery really makes people feel uncomfortable, and there is no technical content at all, so Liu Yin doesn't want to complain.
"The floods along the Qijiang River are the most serious, and the villages for several miles have been affected. No matter what the rain is, the waterways must be dredged within five days." Qin Yan said clearly.
After the words fell, the Lord Ma quickly lowered his head, and promised with a serious face: "Don't worry, Your Highness, if the waterway is not dredged within five days, I will definitely come to see you with a black hat!"
Hearing his words, Qin Yan didn't react, but turned his attention to other people, "Temporary shelters must be built outside the city tomorrow, and the porridge can't be stopped. The batch of disaster relief money is up to you."
Speaking of this, everyone's heart beats like a drum, and it's easy to come out, but I'm afraid that His Highness will remember it in his heart, and he will deal with them all after returning to Beijing. This is what everyone is most worried about.
The atmosphere in the room was a bit solemn, and no one dared to move their chopsticks. It was Fang Jin who suddenly laughed, "Since your Highness is here, you must go to the camp to have a look. I still have a lot to your Highness."
Facing his rescue, the others also breathed a sigh of relief, but Qin Yan suddenly answered, "Guzheng has this intention."
Now it was Fang Jin's turn to look a little subtle, but he still smiled and took a sip of his wine, filling it up for him himself, and didn't say anything else.
Then everyone talked about other things about the flood, and then they talked about some customs in Yangzhou. Liu Yin's legs were numb, and under her resentful eyes, the man finally said he wanted to leave, and the others naturally rushed to see him off.
When watching the figure leave, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became dignified, and everyone's faces were very solemn, even with a hint of deep worry.
The same magistrate of Yangzhou took a sip of his wine and looked at the others with a gloomy face, "You have all seen that this prince doesn't eat at all. , you have all heard of his behavior, even dare to handle a case that involves a lot of smuggling, so what are we?"
Hearing his words, other people's hearts also became heavy, but the Suzhou prefect sighed, "Otherwise, what else?"
The opponent is the prince, the future prince, and his methods have always been decisive and ruthless, so it is not so easy to fool him.
"This is a matter of several hundred taels, and there is no guarantee that he will not find out about the past affairs of the adults. Now, what do you all think of yourself?" Fang Jin suddenly said without any haste.
The room fell silent for an instant, and everyone looked at each other and frowned at each other, knowing what he was going to say.
"Recently there have been a lot of refugees rioting. If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince unfortunately died at the hands of the refugees, it must be reasonable." Fang Jin's eyes suddenly flashed a flash of sternness, which is not as bold as before.
Hearing this, the faces of the others changed drastically, and they stood up abruptly, "General Fang, be careful, this matter is not a joke!"
Different from other people, the prefect of Yangzhou thought deeply after hearing the words, and then suddenly said: "I think General Fang is right, anyway, he will die anyway, and his wife and children will be hurt in the end, why not give it a go , is worse than sitting and waiting to die!"
He didn't expect him to think the same way. The others all stood there with different expressions and didn't speak, but they were somewhat moved.
Glancing at everyone, Fang Jin suddenly said in a serious voice: "Everyone, don't forget, this is Yangzhou, our territory, and the only garrison around is also under the hands of the subordinates. Even if the prince has great abilities, so what, even if If you grow wings, you will stay this time!"
A harsh voice resounded in the silent room, and everyone's heart trembled. It was because they had taken the relief money and were desperate, but this couldn't implicate General Fang, right? Why did the other party insist on putting the prince to death
As if aware of everyone's doubts, Fang Jin just took a sip of wine, and said quietly: "This emperor is more than just the crown prince. Once he dies, the eldest prince will naturally become the new crown prince, and the affairs of several of you will naturally be written off." .”
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other again, they never thought that the general Fang belonged to the First Prince, but why did he say it so bluntly, aren't they afraid that they would leak it
The night is as cool as water, the evening breeze is blowing, the crowds of people on the ten-mile long street are surging and the noise is boiling, Xu has been standing there for a long time, Liu Yin has been complaining there, "I haven't left after I finished talking, what are those people's flattery?" It sounds good, but it sounds fake to me."
Let her stand for so long, it must be revenge for him, he just didn't want to follow him.
She was talking there alone, and the people in front didn't speak, but those guards followed her a little further away, and each one was more knowledgeable than the other.
Taking small steps forward, Liu Yin suddenly looked at the man with a serious face and said: "I don't think those people are good people, do you think His Highness wants to deal with them, which will be bad for us?"
It's not her conspiracy theory, but you have to think in the worst direction for everything, but after thinking about it, the prince can definitely think of things that she can think of.
"Don't think about things you shouldn't think about." Qin Yan glanced at her lightly.
The latter curled his lips and did not speak any more. Instead, he started shopping around the stalls by himself. Of course, she was shopping alone. The prince just walked slowly and waited for her at most, and he had no shopping experience at all.
Carrying a small wooden horse, Liu Yin was still thinking about how to play with it, until when he passed an arch bridge, he saw many lotus lanterns floating under the bridge. marriage.
Liu Yin also hurried down, there happened to be someone selling lotus powder by the water, after buying one, she thought for a while, then picked up a pen and paper, wrote a note and put it in, followed by squatting by the water, The lotus lantern is placed carefully on the water and floats.
There were many children chasing and frolicking around. She was dressed in a gray robe, squatting petite and petite by the water, and the shimmering light reflected from the water surface hit her white face, calm and immature.
The eyes of the person standing on the bridge were deep, and after a while, when they came under the bridge, they looked at the person and said warmly: "You still play with such children's things."
Liu Yin: "..."
She turned her head and stared at him with dissatisfaction, "I'm just a child, it's you who are getting old!"
This person is five years older than her!
"Really?" Looking at each other, the man looked meaningful.
There was a sudden "thump" in her heart, the person who knows the current affairs is Junjie, Liu Yin hurriedly got up and went to hold his arm, and said solemnly in a low voice: "No, no, brother Prince is not old at all, I was just joking."
Seeing the two men chattering, the old woman who sold the lanterns had a strange look in her eyes.
Looking at that flattering little face, Qin Yan gave a low laugh, cast his eyes on the water, and saw the lantern she just put on it at a glance, "What did you write?"
The evening wind was blowing on her face, carrying an inexplicable coolness, Liu Yin turned her head away, with a little dodge on her face, "It's nothing."
Without speaking, the man just stared at her steadfastly, he was just curious what wish this little girl could have.
Xu Shi couldn't stand being stared at by him, Liu Yin still turned around, her bright eyes were full of the reflection of a man, hesitated for a while, and suddenly said softly: "Although I know it's impossible, but... I... I still hope that the prince From now on, I will be the only one, no matter in my eyes or in my heart.”
