The First Traitor [Rebirth]

"Second Young Master." Ping Yao frowned, and she felt the pain coming from her jaw.

Yuan actually opened her eyes and saw Pingyao's pitiful appearance, so she let go of her hand, not because she felt pity for her, but because she didn't want to mess up the game so quickly.

"Just call me."

"The servants dare not call the Second Young Master by his first name."

"Slaves are not slaves. You must know that I, a maid, call myself 'I'. How about I call you Sister Yao?" Yuan Jing said.

Hua Rui glared at Yuan Jing secretly, and then acted as if she hadn't heard anything, she just didn't understand, how could Yuan Jing be so cheeky, flirting with prostitutes in front of so many people!If Yuan was a man, then she would scold Yuan for "shameless" in her heart, but Yuan is a woman, can she call Yuan "shameless" or something like that? !

The owner of the pavilion said with a smile: "Pingyao, you are older than the Second Young Master, and the Second Young Master calls you like this because he wants to make friends with you!"

Pingyao smiled slightly, but did not answer, but invited Yuan Jing into the room.The layout of the room is three-tiered. The outer room is a performance stage and a table; the middle room is a tea room and a kang;In her previous life, Yuan actually spent several nights inside. Of course, she and Pingyao did nothing.

"What song do you want to hear, Second Young Master?" Ping Yao sat down on the stool on the performance stage, picked up the pipa on the side, and was ready to play.

"Don't you have a girl here to pour tea and water?" Yuan Jing asked, looking at the empty teapot.

"This is not Wenxiang Building, and no one will serve us." Ping Yao said neither humble nor overbearing, but his words were somewhat contradictory.

Yuan actually laughed, just like when he heard Pingyao say that in his previous life.In her previous life, when she heard this, she laughed because she admired Pingyao's straightforwardness, and felt sorry for her hardship of having to do everything herself.But laughing now is a mockery of Pingyao.

"Then you go back with me, how about I let someone serve you?" Yuan actually stopped laughing, and said quite seriously, but only she knew how cold it was in her heart.

Ping Yao pursed his lips, then smiled lightly, and asked, "What song does Second Young Master want to hear?"

"House of Flying Daggers!" Yuan actually picked up the teapot and stretched out his hand to the stamen at the door.Seeing this, Hua Rui gave her another blank look in her heart, she really needs her to pour tea and pass water!

As soon as Hua Rui took the teapot and left, the familiar music flowed out from between the pipa and her fingers. She had listened to this song no less than a hundred times. In her previous life, she would listen to it almost every day. , Ambush from all sides and still don't know anything. "The big strings are like torrential rain, and the small strings are like whispers. The chaotic strings are mixed, and the big and small beads fall on the jade plate."

When Hua Rui came back, she heard Yuan Jing's murmur, "Second young master is so talented!"

Yuan actually glanced at her: "This is Bai Juyi's "Pipa Xing", I just picked it up at my fingertips." It means that you have time to read more books.

Hua Rui hummed again in her heart, but she didn't speak, she poured tea for her and stepped aside.

At the end of the song, Pingyao was already panting slightly from exhaustion, and took out a sweat towel to wipe off his sweat.Yuan actually took out an ingot of silver from his bosom and put it gently on the table, saying: "It's really good at playing the pipa, but unfortunately I have something else to do, so I can't listen to the girl's playing anymore, so I can only come to visit again sometime when I have time." Fan, goodbye!" After finishing speaking, he tidied up his hem, turned and left.

For her departure, Pingyao was surprised, confused, dissatisfied, and full of calculations.

"Second Young Master, you are really here to listen to the music!" Hua Rui said.

"Otherwise? If I don't want to listen to the music, I can go to Wenxiang Building." Yuan Jing blinked.She came here just to tickle the fish's curiosity, and also to give the fish some hope, and then she only needs to cast a long line to catch big fish.

When he returned to Yuan Mansion, Yuan actually met Yuan Li unexpectedly, but Yuan Li smelled of alcohol and rouge, so he knew where he came back from.The concierge looked at the two of them nervously, fearing that they would start arguing and fighting if they couldn't think about it for a while, but the situation was not as serious as they imagined, although Yuan Li still shouted arrogantly: "Get out of the way, I'll go in first!"

The door is so big, not to mention two people going in together, six or seven people going in together is no problem, Yuan Li is clearly provocative.It's just that Yuan didn't fight against him as much as before, but turned sideways: "Brother first please!"

Yuan Li didn't even think about it, and walked in arrogantly.But the end of being too arrogant is to be knocked down by the threshold. Yuan actually stepped on him without looking at him, and then walked away with a slightly dazed stamen.The concierge stared dumbfounded: I thought the second young master had really changed his mind, but unexpectedly, it got worse.

"It turns out!" Yuan Li's roar came from the door.

Hua Rui looked back, fearing that Yuan Li's servants would rush up to beat Yuan Jing, so she had to prepare for protection.But Juan Yuan had a calm expression on his face, and he couldn't help saying: "Second Young Master, I'm afraid Eldest Young Master will be very angry for what you did just now!"

"Huh? What happened to me just now?" Yuan Jing refused to admit that he stepped on Yuan Li just now.

"Second young master..." How can a person be so brazen?

"Oh." I just want to be cheeky.

Yuan actually went back to the room, freshened up and washed off the dusty smell on her body, and the servants beside Yuan Ye came to look for her.

"How is Dad feeling?" Yuan Jing asked.

"Very good." The servant replied after deliberation, "But the young master was in the master's study just now."

It turned out that he had made up his mind, and not long after dismissing the servant, he went to Yuan Ye's study.

"father."

Yuan Ye glanced at her, and seemingly casually told her about stepping on Yuan Li to return home, and then he reprimanded her: "After all, he is your brother, no matter how arrogant he is, with you No matter how incompatible you are, you can't do such an excessive thing. Only brothers who are of one mind can break gold, do you understand this truth?"

"Boy, I know I was wrong." Yuan actually quickly admitted his mistake. Seeing that she admitted her mistake very well, Yuan Ye no longer scolded her, but talked about serious business.

Because Yuan Ye instigated the head of Qin Tianjian to propose the construction of Fengtian Pavilion behind his back, which caused controversy in the court, and made King Qi a little passive.He found someone to scold Yuan Ye in private, and asked Yuan Ye to clean up the mess.Yuan Ye gave him an explanation, but he seemed a little hesitant.

"Father, now that King Qi is dissatisfied with you, you still plan to follow him?" Yuan Jing asked in a low voice.At the beginning, she encouraged Yuan Ye to do so without saying hello to King Qi. One was to let King Qi voluntarily give up Yuan Ye's ship. To give loyalty.

Yuan Ye sighed, the reason why he chose to follow King Qi was also for the original family, if he hadn't followed King Qi, he wouldn't have the status he has now, and I'm afraid he would be just a small official of the fifth or sixth rank.But he also has his own selfish intentions, he doesn't want to be used as a spearman by King Qi all the time, he wants to go to the next level, so he instigates this matter without telling King Qi.

King Qi asked him to ask him to blame, and he explained, but King Qi seemed to have no confidence in whether this could be done. After all, most of the ministers in the court opposed it, and he didn't need to offend more people because of Yuan Ye.

"What happened?" Yuan asked again.

Yuan Ye was no longer silent: "I handed over the memorial today, which can be regarded as showing my position. But as expected, the memorial to impeach me surpassed the memorial to impeach Qin Tianjian in one day."

"After all, Dad's position as Zuo Shilang is more attractive than a master of Qin Tianjian." After Yuan Jing finished speaking, he noticed a smile on Yuan Ye's face, and said, "It seems that this is good news."

"Haha, this is of course good news! The Ministry of Industry, which is in charge of the system of civil engineering construction and the code of offering billions of mausoleums, proposed the construction of Fengtian Pavilion. No one is more suitable than this. Once I propose it, it will be seconded by my friendly officials. , the emperor can climb up the ladder without the approval of most of the courtiers." Yuan Ye laughed softly, "It is said that the memorial to impeach me was burned by the emperor, and it burned all morning and afternoon. Still have it!"

Offending most of the courtiers in exchange for the emperor's trust, this business seems to be a loss, but in fact it is worth a lot, no wonder Yuan Ye looks so happy.

Suddenly, Yuan Ye said, "But I have to thank two people."

"Who?"

"The emperor's seventh younger sister, Princess Cheng Ya, and her son-in-law Nanxiong. I heard from the eunuch who wrote the book that Princess Cheng Ya and Nan Xiong entered the palace together, and advised the emperor to build Fengtian Pavilion for the sake of all people in the world."

Yuan was slightly startled, after thinking about it, she couldn't remember at all, this Princess Cheng Ya and her son-in-law had contacts with the Yuan family in the previous life, she asked: "Did you know Princess Cheng Ya and Nan's son-in-law?"

"The son-in-law of the south has no official position in the court. Although Princess Cheng Ya is the younger sister of the emperor's mother, she doesn't seem to interfere in the affairs of the court. Therefore, we met at the state banquet, but we are not familiar with each other."

Both Yuan Ye and Yuan Jing couldn't figure out why they would help, but it was a good thing for Yuan Ye.It's just that Yuan has already died once, and she no longer wants to believe that there will be no motive for someone to help, and she can't figure it out for the time being, so she can only remember this in her heart.

As the quarrel in the court became fierce, the content of the quarrel evolved from the construction of Fengtian Pavilion to the factional disputes among the princes. The two sides attacked each other, and the emperor was so angry that he did not go to court for two days.

And the children of officials and eunuchs also took their parents as an example, and stood in the team one after another, so that they even competed against each other when they met.

It turned out that in front of the gate of Wenxiang Tower, what I saw was the official children of the prince's party and the official children of the Qi king's party who almost fought over who would go in first.

After disguised, Hua Rui looked at Yuan Jing with contempt: "Second Young Master, you said you came here to do something?"

"That's right, it's a big deal! That's why I said I don't need you to take care of me, because there are plenty of people here to serve me." Yuan actually looked at her amusedly.

Recalling that before going out, Huarui followed closely, Yuan couldn't get rid of her several times, so he could only say: "I don't want to bring a maid with me when I go out!"

"But the master ordered me to take care of the second young master." Huarui was very timid, but she dared to speak out, which showed that she was not cowardly.

"I'm out on errands, I don't need your care, and you can't help me either!"

"Second Young Master, will you be thirsty when doing errands? Will you be hungry? Will you be tired, hot,..."

Yuan actually quickly interrupted the various situations she listed: "I am thirsty, hungry, tired, and hot. I will find a place where I can eat, drink, and enjoy the wind. I will sit down and have a good rest. I don't need you!"

"So I'm going to help the second young master pour tea and water, serve rice and vegetables, fan the wind to wipe sweat, squeeze shoulders and beat back!"

"I haven't seen you serving me like this at home, is it necessary to go outside!"

"There are so many people in the family!" Hua Rui blushed appropriately.

"More people outside!"

"People outside don't know me..."

At this point, the hatred that filled her heart and the grand plan of revenge were temporarily thrown to an unknown corner by her. It was the first time since she was reborn that she was so aggrieved and powerless. pause?It seems that I can't beat...

After thinking about it, Yuan actually felt that in case of danger, she seemed to be able to help, so he gave her her own clothes for her to change into.Hua Rui also seemed relieved, changed her clothes and followed Yuan Jing in step.

At this moment, a mocking sound came from the upstairs window: "Yo, isn't this Yuan Jing, Yuan Jing, you went back to Goulang Pavilion, this time you finally couldn't resist coming to Wenxiang Tower!"

She didn't need to look up to know whose voice it was, and it was for him that she came here this trip!
