The King of Beijing in the Red Mansion

King An took a sip of the fragrant tea handed to him by a maid in a blue dress, smashed it into his mouth, and said pointedly: "I just came back from the "Heaven and Earth". I ate too much wine and passed by. Third brother, come and sit here."

King Le frowned slightly when he heard this, and his eyes fell on King An's face with a hint of pride. He paused slightly in his heart and asked, "Why did you go there?"

He had also heard about that place. It was an arty place, and he was not at odds with his biological brother.

Moreover, even if you eat too much wine, you will not pass by the Thale Palace.

The corners of Wang An's mouth raised slightly, his handsome brows raised, and he said with a smile: "What else can I do there, other than just eat and drink, but it's quite interesting today. I happened to meet Uncle Sixteen and was scolded by Uncle Sixteen." Had a meal."

"Prince of Beijing County."

After hearing this, King Le's eyes couldn't help but darken, and the way he looked at King An was slightly different.

Regarding the Prince of Beijing County, he originally wanted to win over him, but his attitude was indifferent, which made him feel shameless. Thinking that he was neutral, he didn't pay too much attention to him.

It was only after his "good brother" returned to the court and entered the Ministry of War that he began to pay attention again. In addition, because of the "automatic musket" incident, although Emperor Yongkang said it privately, the palace walls seemed strict, but in fact leaks were everywhere. , King Le also knew that Emperor Yongkang asked his "brother" to have more interactions with the Prince of Beijing County, which made people think about it.

It is precisely because of this that King Le is very concerned about the affairs of the Prince of Beijing.

Most of the girls in "Heaven and Earth" are the female relatives of prisoners, and the one who led them out was Feng Ziying, the guard commander of the Beijing Palace, and it was Feng Ziying who came forward to reveal the trouble, which makes people think of the master behind it. He is the king of Beijing County.

There's just no evidence, it's just speculation.

Now that King An mentioned this matter, he couldn't help but make King Le think more. He glanced at King Le and said, "Uncle Sixteen has always been kind-hearted. I will teach you what to do."

King An sighed and said helplessly: "I fell in love with a dancing girl, and I wanted to bring her into the house to raise her, but who would have thought that Uncle Sixteen showed up, which made me very depressed."

King Le's eyes narrowed when he heard this. Since the Prince of Beijing County came forward, he must be the master behind "Heaven and Earth".

It's just a guild hall. It's not worth much in the first place, but different people are involved, and it means different things. As the master behind a guild hall, the dignified prince cannot just want to build a private club for his own enjoyment.

If it was still possible for others, this would definitely not be the case for the Prince of Beijing, who had always been a modest person.

After groaning, the King of Music said: "Eat wine when you go out and drink wine. Don't cause any trouble. If you want to bring a dancing girl into the palace and let the father know about it, you will inevitably be punished."

The palace has the threshold of the palace, and not everyone can enter. If a dancing girl is brought into the palace, she will be criticized by others. She will lose the face of the royal family. If Emperor Yongkang knows about it, there will be no good consequences, especially for Prince An. His reputation was already bad, and his punishment was even worse.

As for the water-soluble matter, whoever allows the Beijing Palace to have capital will receive different treatment.

When King An heard this, he suddenly had a bitter look on his face and said angrily: "Third brother, you have wronged me. I heard you talking about this last time, so I went to "Heaven and Earth" to find out for you. Today I saw Uncle Sixteen and went out of my way to cause trouble, and now you are talking about me."

King Le smiled when he heard this, remembering that when he mentioned this matter to his staff, King An happened to come looking for him at that time, and he thought it was then that King An knew about it.

Thinking that this younger brother could plan for him, King Le couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. With a bit of warmth between his brows, he said softly: "Okay, I know your good intentions. You have eaten a lot of wine, so go back and rest first. Bar!"

After hearing this, King An stopped entangled, shrugged, and strode away immediately.

King Le took a sip from the tea cup and looked thoughtfully at King An's leaving figure. King Le also knew his temperament well, so he could only show more concern in his words. After all, he was also his biological brother.

And that’s good, it saves money.

But, does he really just want to be an idle prince?

Chapter 272 Yuanchun: Husband and wife are of one heart and one mind

Beijing Palace.

Shui Rong enjoyed some dancing in "Heaven and Earth", and after talking about the conversation, he didn't stay any longer and went straight back to the palace, heading towards his yard along the road paved with bluestones.

"The prince is back."

Suddenly, a gentle voice sounded, and Yuan Chun, dressed in brocade and splendid clothes, came towards him, with the smiling Second Sister You and Third Sister You beside him.

When he returned home, he was greeted by his daughter-in-law with a smile. Shui Rong was naturally in a good mood, but when he saw the beauty Hua Xin behind Yuan Chun, he couldn't help but frown slightly.

That's Princess Yong, Zhang Pan'er. It seems like she's taking the back-house route again.

Shui Rong's eyes fell on the beautiful Yuan Chun, and he nodded gently, with a hint of doubt in his eyebrows, and asked: "Where are you going?"

There are differences between men and women. Shui Rong always avoided Zhang Pan'er's visit to the palace to visit relatives. Yuan Chun also knew his attitude and tried not to nag him. Taking the initiative to greet him now was nothing more than a chance encounter.

When Yuanchun heard this, his eyebrows were curved, his red lips were slightly raised, and he responded: "I want to go to the garden with my sister Pan'er to see the scenery."

After hearing this, Zhang Pan'er beside her raised her eyes and glanced at Yuan Chun, who was like a spring breeze. Something strange flashed in her bright eyes. She bowed and said, "I have met the prince."

Logically speaking, her seniority should be that of a nephew and daughter-in-law, but Yuanchun addressed her as a younger sister, which made her unable to call her "Uncle Sixteen", which made Zhang Pan'er feel bitter in her heart.

Hot on the face but cold on the bottom, the problem is that it has to be applied, and who knows the pain involved.

The water-melting eyes fell on Zhang Pan'er, with black hair like a waterfall, skin like fat, eyebrows like light smoke, she looked fresh and elegant, apricot eyes flowing, water color, under the straight nose were pink cherry lips, a puff of smoke The plum-blossom hundred water skirt is tied with soft smoke. It doesn't look like a woman, it has a bit of pink and delicate flavor.

Nodding lightly, Shui Rong didn't say much. He looked at Yuanchun Fengze's jade face and said with a smile, "In that case, I won't disturb your enjoyment."

If Princess Yong was not here, he would probably accompany Yuan Chun to the garden, but since Princess Yong was here, it was better to stay away from the relationship between the uncle and his nephew's daughter-in-law.

After all, his uncle is already married to a certain nephew-in-law

As for Princess Yong's "ulterior motives", Yuanchun is smart and quick-witted, so she doesn't need to worry about Shui Rong. She can handle matters dealing with the back house.

Zhang Pan'er lowered her head and looked at Shui Rong from the corner of her eye. Something strange flashed through her bright eyes like autumn water. King Yong asked her to recommend herself to the pillow mat in order to borrow seeds. However, she could not see the prince after entering the palace several times. Today When they met for the first time, their attitude was cold and they couldn't even talk to each other.

She can't be allowed to break the rules in front of the dignified Princess Beijing. It's embarrassing.

Thinking of this, Zhang Pan'er felt a surge of bitterness in her heart. She didn't want to do such despicable things to seduce people, but if this didn't work, she would have to pick people from Prince Yong's Palace. If she really wanted to let those people It is unimaginable for her servants to do this to her.

Her beautiful eyes flashed slightly, Zhang Pan'er lightly opened her red lips and said, "Uncle Sixteen, it will be the prince's birthday in a few days, so I would like to invite Uncle Sixteen to be a guest at Prince Yong's Mansion."

Having said that, Zhang Paner added: "Uncle Zhongshun Wang will also come to the palace."

When Yuan Chun heard this, her eyes turned slightly. Zhang Pan'er had told her about this matter before, so she had perfunctoryly said it in the name of "asking the prince for instructions." Now when Shui Rong met Shui Rong and mentioned it in person, she couldn't say much, so she had to Wait and see what happens.

It's just that Yuanchun knew her husband's attitude in her heart, and she would politely refuse.

Shui Rong frowned slightly after hearing this, and after a deep sigh, he said, "Since my nephew sincerely invites me, I can't refuse it. I'd rather bother my nephew and my wife to inform Prince Yong, and I will definitely come to support him."

Yuanchun's almond-shaped eyes widened when he heard this, and he was filled with doubts. Logically speaking, his husband should have declined politely, so why did he agree? Moreover, the attitude of the person who was affectionately called nephew or nephew-in-law had obviously changed.

It's not that she is suspicious, but there must be a monster when something goes wrong. She must have something wrong.

Zhang Pan'er couldn't help but feel happy at this moment, and Fuli said: "The prince, his nephew and his wife are waiting for the arrival of the sixteenth uncle."

Shui Rong smiled and nodded without saying much. He saw Second Sister You looking at him with her beautiful face and a pair of bright, watery eyes. They looked at each other like a frightened female rabbit, and she hurriedly lowered her head. Go and clench the goose-yellow handkerchief into a ball with bare hands.

Third Sister You on one side was brave by nature. Seeing that Second Sister You was submissive and didn't even have the guts to say a word of greeting, she became angry and glared at the second sister before saluting, "I've met the prince."

Shui Rong looked at Youshi Shuangshu, who had a very different temperament, and found it quite interesting. He nodded and said, "Third sister, second sister, nephew and wife are distinguished guests. You should follow Yuan Chun and accompany them well, and don't lose etiquette. "

Since the You sisters entered the palace, they have mostly followed Yuan Chun, as if they have become little followers. But it is not surprising, they were brought into the palace by Yuan Chun. If they don't follow Yuan Chun closely, who else can they follow.

Second Sister You couldn't help but feel happy when the prince called her name, and she hurriedly followed the Third Sister and responded.

Seeing this, Zhang Pan'er knew that Uncle Sixteen was back, and Aunt Sixteen had no interest in hanging out in the garden, so she smiled sweetly and said, "I remember that I have something else to do, so I won't disturb Aunt Sixteen."

Hearing this, Yuanchun relaxed his brows and responded with a smile: "When my sister comes back next time, I will take you to the garden for a walk."

Since the husband's attitude towards Princess Yong was different, even if she had doubts, Yuanchun still encouraged the husband to follow her, and his attitude became friendly.

Zhang Pan'er nodded lightly and left without saying anything.

When people left, Shui Rong's eyes fell on Yuan Chun. He saw his starry eyes flashing, but kept silent. He couldn't help but said with a smile: "Ask whatever you want. There is no need to hide between you and me."

He saw the doubts in Yuanchun's eyebrows and thought that she wanted to ask him about accepting the invitation from King Yong, but the education she received stopped her and she could not pay attention to outside matters.

It's just that everyone has curiosity, so how can we really turn a blind eye.

Yuanchun saw that Shuirong had pierced her thoughts. Fengze's face turned slightly red, and his heart surged with joy. They were husband and wife of the same mind, so there was no need to act on the occasion.

But before she could ask, Third Sister You on the side said with a blessing: "Your Majesty, Princess, Second Sister and I are going back first."

Although Sanjie You is brave by nature, she is not an ignorant person. She understands that this is a matter between the prince and the princess. They cannot be such an eyesore. If they wait for the princess to drive people away, wouldn't it be more obvious? Awkward.

Although the second sister wanted to take a second look at the prince whom she longed for, she also knew it was inappropriate. She pursed her lips and said nothing, and was dragged away by the third sister.

Shui Rong didn't stop him. After all, even if they didn't take the initiative, he would let them leave. After all, what he and Yuan Chun were going to say was inconvenient.

After the two of them left, Shui Rong said, "Although the second and third sisters are from humble families, they are smart and well-behaved."

You Erjie is well-behaved but not smart. In the original novel, she was easily coaxed into the "Duke's Mansion" and lost her life. After all, she is a beautiful and gentle person who has no opinions of her own.

Third Sister You is smart but not well-behaved. She is as fierce as a flower and dares to love and hate. In the original work, she advises the second sister not to enter the Duke's palace, which shows that she is a smart and rational person.

A pair of sisters, together they are smart and well-behaved, but they are also very interesting.

Yuanchun nodded lightly when he heard this, but didn't say anything. He turned his starry eyes slightly, looked at the young man with a beautiful face, and asked softly: "Why did your husband accept the invitation of Prince Yong?"

Now that Shui Rong had exposed her thoughts, she naturally wouldn't be shy and took the initiative to ask.

When Shui Rong heard the words, his eyes were long and he didn't answer the question as he asked: "Some time ago, the emperor asked King Yong to get closer to me."

After Yuanchun heard this, his handsome Xingmei frowned slightly. The imperial brother mentioned by his husband was naturally the emperor. The emperor asked his husband to get closer to the prince. What did this mean? It couldn't just be a casual chat between uncle and nephew!

Blinking his starry eyes, Yuan Chun asked with a hint of doubt on his eyebrows, "Husband, what does your Majesty mean by this?"

Shui Rong had nothing to hide and said, "Now in the court, King Le and King Kang are in the same situation. I guess the emperor wants to use King Yong to balance the fight between the princes."

When Yuan Chun heard this, her jade face was slightly startled, and she probably understood in her heart that although she was a woman in the back house, she had also heard about the affairs between the princes when she was in the palace.

Among the princes, King Yong was recuperating due to illness and had been away from the court for several years. King An acted absurdly and was unpopular. The tenth prince was still in school at a young age. Only King Le was against King Kang. However, King Le's mother was the mother of the country. He is orthodox in terms of status, and naturally the King of Music has the highest reputation.

When two tigers fight, one of them will be injured. He supports the Yongwang who is also the orthodox identity and forms a tripod to balance the fight.

Weirdly, even Prince Zhongshun accepted King Yong’s invitation, which was originally the emperor’s wish.

Pursing her pink lips, Yuan Chun asked softly: "Husband, how should we treat King Yong?"

Since they wanted the support of the Prince of Beijing by name, they couldn't keep treating each other coldly, but to what extent, Shui Rong still had to make the decision on this matter, and it would be easier for her to act.

When Shui Rong heard this, his eyes fell on Yuan Chun and asked with a smile, "What do you think, Madam?"

When Yuan Chun heard this, his starry eyes turned slightly, he thought for a while, and said softly: "I think that the attitude of our Beijing Palace does not need to be too cold, but it should not be too friendly."

After hearing this, Shui Rong stretched out his hand to hold the beauty's hand and said with a smile, "What the lady said is true."

To be honest, what Yuanchun said was his attitude. He did not want to participate in the fight between the princes. However, since Emperor Yongkang hinted at him, he had no choice but to do it. After all, not even King Zhongshun was like this.

It's just that this degree must be mastered well. While it reflects the wishes of Emperor Yongkang, it should not be too deep in the mud. The best way is to stay away from it.

Yuan Chun felt happy when he saw that Shui Rong didn't mind talking about external matters with her. He looked at the young man with bright eyes, Feng Ze's face was slightly red, and he bit his pink lips lightly and said: "Husband, let's Go back to the house and take a rest!”

"Go back to your house and rest." How could Shui Rong not know such an obvious signal?

After groaning, Shui Rong said softly: "You go back first, I'll go back later."

Upon hearing this, Yuanchun responded with a smile on her lips, and left with cheerful steps. After all, although her husband was not following her back to the house now, he would still come over later.

Upon seeing this, Shui Rong didn't say much and went straight back to his courtyard.
