life in a hurry

Fu Nansheng had repeatedly promised Chen Feiqing that he would stop thinking about it, but there are some things that cannot be accomplished overnight with hard work.The moment Fu Nansheng saw the jade pendant, he wanted to find an opportunity to stuff the jade pendant into King Huai's mouth.

However, it is wrong to think this way, at least for Chen Feiqing.So Fu Nansheng tried his best not to think this way, just pretended to be nothing, and followed the little eunuch back to the banquet.

He had just left for a while, and he didn't know where Chen Feiqing brought a little boy carved in pink and jade, about three or five years old, very fearless, very affectionate with Chen Feiqing and the emperor, and very cute.

Pei Chengyuan was scared by people like Chen Feiqing and Zheng Wenqi when he was a child, and he always kept children at a respectful distance, so he didn't go to join in the fun at this time, he just brought the fruit from his own table to Qin Zhengwen and Fu Nansheng's table, saying: "Don't waste it!" Come on, help us eat."

Qin Zhengwen pretended not to hear it.

Fu Nansheng asked, "Who is that child?"

Pei Chengyuan said: "That's Prince Huai's son, the emperor's nephew. Prince Huai is the emperor's distant cousin."

Fu Nansheng suddenly thought, if he found an excuse to hug that child, would Duke Huai throw away his son as well.

He couldn't help smiling, and said: "That child is really good-looking. I just met Duke Huai just now, he doesn't seem to be very old, but he already has a child."

After Fu Nansheng said this, he suddenly felt that the surroundings became quiet.He looked at Pei Chengyuan, then at Qin Zhengwen, then at Zheng Wenqi...

Zheng Wenqi yelled, "Look what I'm doing? I'm the youngest!"

Pei Chengyuan smiled and said: "If I remember correctly, Duke Huai is two years younger than you."

"It means that I keep myself clean! Besides, it's none of your business!"

Zheng Wenqi and Pei Chengyuan fought again, while Qin Zhengwen had already settled down, immersed in the world of peanuts and unable to extricate himself.

Fu Nansheng couldn't help but went to see Chen Feiqing again, and saw him teasing the child in his arms.

Chen Feiqing likes to play with children very much. When he has nothing to do, he often plays with the children in the academy, and even formed two teams to play Cuju.It's a pity that after forming the team, he was expelled from the team because he was much older, taller and played much better. It was Fu Nansheng who reluctantly joined, and there was an adult on one side, which saved Chen Feiqing.Naturally, Fu Nansheng played too poorly, so the two teams fought again against Chen Feiqing. This is something later, Fu Nansheng doesn't want to mention it too much.

The child was answering the emperor's question, so Chen Feiqing couldn't help but look at Fu Nansheng. Seeing that Fu Nansheng was eating again, he felt a little funny.

After Fu Nansheng finished eating the grapes, he wiped his hands, and inadvertently raised his head, and caught a glimpse of Duke Huai smiling at Chen Feiqing, but the smile was very strange.The person beside him was talking in a low voice, Duke Huai was talking with that person, his smile couldn't catch his eyes, Fu Nansheng could see a bit of contempt from it.

When the evening was approaching, the crowd gradually dispersed. Chen Feiqing stayed and talked with the emperor for a while, and Fu Nansheng waited in the teahouse not far from the gate of the palace.

Chen Feiqing came out in a hurry and asked Fu Nansheng, "Are you hungry?"

Fu Nansheng said: "I'm afraid I won't be able to eat dinner."

"I think so, I just watched you eat today." Chen Feiqing said very intentionally, "The emperor secretly asked me if I couldn't afford to support my family without a monthly salary."

Fu Nansheng was also willing to think about this for the better, but he was really not happy, so he just smiled: "I'll talk about it when I go back."

However, Chen Feiqing said: "If there is nothing else, I would like to go to the post house first. Duke Huai's fiefdom is very far away. It is very rare to come to Beijing only once in ten years. He lived in the capital for several months when he was young, and The emperor and I are very close, but because everyone is here today, there is no time to talk. I want to treat him to a meal."

Fu Nansheng was very reluctant, but seeing that Chen Feiqing was in high spirits, he wanted him to go by himself.But after thinking about it, he didn't know what Duke Huai would do or say while he wasn't around, and he felt unhappy.

Left and right Chen Feiqing must go to eat this meal, why not follow.

Fu Nansheng smiled and said: "It's better to hit the sun than to choose the day. It must be rare for King Huai to come to Beijing. There will be many posts inviting him in the future. Let's go there quickly."

Maybe just in time for that ugly monster to throw his son away.Fu Nansheng thought to himself.

Duke Huai didn't throw his son away, but he happened to be beating him.

When Chen Feiqing and Fu Nansheng went to the post house, they happened to hear the little prince kneeling in the yard and crying loudly, his face was swollen, but he was still shaking and wiping his face with ice.

Chen Feiqing was startled, hurried over to take away the ice, picked up Xiao Shizi, and said, "What's wrong?"

Duke Huai was originally sitting on the porch reading a book, when he saw him coming, he stood up, smiled, and said, "Why are you here at this time? Ah, Mr. Fu is here too, hurry up and have some tea. Fei Qing, leave that kid alone, He hasn't been on Fang Jiewa for three days. Don't look like he's pretending to be good in front of you, but he's actually very naughty. He lost the jade pendant that my father left me. If I teach him a lesson, who knows that he will still be in the future? You can make some messy things."

Hearing this, Chen Feiqing lowered her head and said to the young prince in her arms, "Why are you so naughty? Where did you lose it?"

Xiao Shizi glanced at him, hesitated, suddenly struggled, broke away and ran to the side behind the weeping nanny, hugged the nanny's legs, and hung his head almost to his chest, very afraid.

Chen Feiqing was a little confused, only felt that Xiao Shizi had a completely different temperament from earlier in the palace, thinking that he was afraid of being punished, so he advised Duke Huai: "It's fine to spank the buttocks, what's the matter with the ice?"

King Huai said: "Oh, he threw his face when he was naughty, and he used ice cubes to reduce the swelling."

Fu Nansheng: "..."

"Bring the son back to rule." After Huai Wang ordered his followers, he asked Chen Feiqing kindly, "What do you want from me?"

"I haven't seen you for many years. I want to catch up with you." Chen Feiqing patted him on the shoulder, "Both the emperor and I miss you very much."

Fu Nansheng thought to himself that the clothes would also be burned.

If given the chance, he would really like to touch the face, hands and feet of Duke Huai, to see if His Highness would cut off his limbs.

Chen Feiqing invited Duke Huai to a nearby restaurant for dinner, and originally wanted to take Xiao Shizi with him, but Duke Huai said that he should let the child recover from his injuries, so he went with them alone.

During the dinner, just listening to Chen Feiqing and Huai Wang reminiscing about the old days, Fu Nansheng had nothing to say, and he didn't want to talk to Huai Wang at all. Inexplicably, he understood Qin Zhengwen's mood of being forced to go to the banquet, so he had to bow his head to eat, and occasionally smiled cooperatively. Say a funny word or two.

But he always felt that Duke Huai's vague eyes on him were full of contempt and loathing.With Yupei's move, he didn't think he was thinking too much.None of these princes are likable, what's wrong with them.

After drinking for three rounds, suddenly Chen Shu came to look for him, and Chen Feiqing temporarily went outside the wing to talk about the matter, and there were only two people left in the wing, Fu Nansheng and King Huai.

After all, it was Chen Feiqing's guest, so it was not easy to be cold, so Fu Nansheng put down his chopsticks and asked with a smile: "I don't know where the jade pendant of His Royal Highness Huai was lost, maybe we can help find it."

King Huai said: "Who knows where the child was thrown, forget it."

Fu Nansheng had no choice but to change the topic: "Is the dish not to the prince's taste? I don't think the prince has touched a few chopsticks."

Duke Huai smiled, and looked at him: "I saw that you were agitated, so naturally I won't touch you again."

When Fu Nansheng heard this, he knew the depth of it completely, so he didn't bother to talk to him anymore, smiled, lowered his head and continued to eat, and took a bite of each of the remaining two dishes that he didn't touch because he didn't like them.

Duke Huai persuaded with a smile: "Eat less, if you are stupid and gain weight, how can you serve others with sex?"

Fu Nansheng endured it, pretending not to hear it.

Seeing that he was silent, King Huai took out a piece of gold leaf from his bosom, and just threw it into Fu Nansheng's wine glass, splashing a few drops of wine on Fu Nansheng's face: "I heard that in the past, you only needed a string of money to listen to your singing." A song, now that it has been consecrated by the young master, it may have increased its value, one leaf is always enough."

Fu Nansheng raised his hand, slowly wiped off the dripping wine on his face with his thumb, and said, "It seems that the eunuch took the jade pendant and still wanted to do one thing for you, that is, to do that scene in front of me on purpose. "

Duke Huai said with a smile: "Why should I bother with a young man, I didn't want to speak out, but you are so ignorant, you have to come together and continue to disgust me."

"That's really embarrassing for the prince." Fu Nansheng fished out the gold leaf from the wine, picked up the wine glass, and threw it on King Huai's face, "I drank the wine glass before. If you want to feel dirty, put your face on it." Let's dig."

Duke Huai was slightly startled, wiped the wine from his face, and said with a sneer: "I often hear that Fu Nansheng is a person who is neither yin nor yang, but I didn't expect his temper to be so violent, don't you only know how to sit next to a man?" Are you laughing on your legs?"

Fu Nansheng said: "The prince's land is remote, but he can still hear my reputation. He really cares about the affairs of the world."

Duke Huai smiled, but soon stopped laughing.

Because Fu Nansheng said again: "Just don't think too much about it. For example, don't think too much about how to be an emperor. Instead, you should think about how to destroy the dragon robe under the palace. If you really want to have an addiction every now and then, just raise a show." Team, it’s okay to wear an opera robe, others will only say that the prince wants to be an actor, just smile, and you won’t beheaded.”

Duke Huai said: "I really don't understand why you want to create such rumors, maybe it's just your nature."

Fu Nansheng said: "Perhaps it is because Princess Huai is still as beautiful as a fairy at the age of nearly forty. I have heard about it for a long time, and I yearn for it. I wish I could be born 20 years earlier so that I can be her guest of honor, so that I don't have to do it after the death of King Huai." Letting her keep the vacant room for all those years in vain is going too far."

Duke Huai's face turned completely cold: "This king is just too lazy to argue with you. If I really want to crush you to death, it will be easier than crushing an ant."

"I heard this sentence when I was eight years old and now, you don't have to worry about debts. I'm afraid you have to get a number first." Fu Nansheng smiled and said, "Young son is so good-looking, he really doesn't look like a prince. But what confuses me is that it really doesn't look like a child that a cook can give birth to. I heard that the cook is very ugly, except for some extraordinary talents..."

"Shut up!" Duke Huai suddenly stretched out his hand towards him.

Fu Nansheng picked up the chopsticks in front of him, and easily caught his fingers: "I don't want to do anything, and I advise you not to do it. You are a pampered prince, you can only put on airs, and you can't win me."
