After Chu Sixian harassed Yun Wan that day, she was always worried that Chu Hui would come to her, but for several days, Chu Hui did not make any move.He couldn't help thinking in his heart: It seems that Yun Wan is nothing to Huang Jie, otherwise she would not dare to tell Huang Jie after suffering such a big grievance?

With no fear of being on guard against Chu Hui, Chu Sixian couldn't wait to go out of the palace to look for Ruan Peihan.His uncle held a very important official position in the court in the early years, but later he made a big mistake and was demoted by the emperor. Now only Ruan Peihan's eldest son, Ruan Qing, is an official in the Ruan family.That's why Chu Sixian looked for him, and he was never absent.

Still in Fengyue Building, still in that clean and elegant private room, Ruan Peihan still had a three-point smile on his face and seven-point calculations.

"Uncle came early." Chu Sixian sat opposite Ruan Peihan, his face was not very good-looking.

The immediate master was not happy, so Ruan Peihan had no choice but to restrain his smile, poured a cup of tea and handed it to him: "Your Highness, who is making you angry again?"

"It's not a matter in the palace. I am obviously the eldest son of the emperor, but I am overwhelmed by the emperor's sister and a princess everywhere. Even a companion by her side dares to disrespect my highness." Chu Sixian took the teacup and drank it in one gulp. In fact, he is not angry with Chu Hui and Yun Wan now, but Ruan Peihan clearly said that he would help him, but he did nothing, but he couldn't say it directly, so he used a roundabout way, "Uncle, you still want me When are you waiting?"

How could Ruan Peihan fail to understand what Chu Sixian said, but he didn't intend to argue with his nephew, after all, the whole Ruan family would rely on this nephew to make a fortune in the future.I saw him speak unhurriedly: "Your Highness, don't worry, now is the time!" After he finished speaking, he clapped his hands hard twice.

Chu Sixian looked at him puzzled, at this moment the door was gently opened, and a slim woman with a light veil covering her face slowly walked in.Before seeing the face, he could imagine what kind of peerless face was under the veil.But Chu Sixian was young, and only had that dragon chair in his heart, so he didn't have much interest in admiring beauty: "Uncle, what does this mean?"

"Your Highness, what do you think of this woman?" Ruan Peihan didn't answer him, but pulled off the man's veil and asked Chu Sixian.

"..." Chu Sixian was a little idiot at the beginning, but when he came back to his senses, he found that the woman was looking at him with a smile. He suddenly became a little annoyed, and took this person's smile as a mockery, "It's just What's the big deal about how good-looking she is?"

Ruan Peihan saw that he didn't like the beauties he carefully prepared, and was a little anxious for a moment: "Your Highness, what you said is wrong. Could it be that you have forgotten the beauties in the 36 tricks?"

"Beauty tricks?" Chu Sixian frowned and looked at the beauty, "Beauty tricks are not bad, but although she is beautiful, is she older? She looks five or six years older than Chu Siyuan."

"..." Ruan Peihan finally understood why Chu Sixian frowned, he completely misunderstood what he meant, "Your Highness may have thought wrong, this Ling Yan was not prepared for His Highness the Third Prince, but It is prepared for the emperor." Ruan Peihan has carefully cultivated Ling Yan for more than ten years, if it is dedicated to the third prince, wouldn't it be too wasteful?

Chu Sixian paused, then shook his head: "I'm afraid it's even worse. I haven't seen such a beautiful woman, even if she was born beautiful, but she was born in Fengyuelou, how could my father like this?" people?"

However, Ruan Peihan shook his head and showed a smile: "Don't worry, the emperor will like it. As long as His Royal Highness leads the emperor to this Fengyue Tower, I can guarantee that the emperor will definitely bring Ling Yan into the palace. She is our The carefully cultivated chess pieces are completely under my control, and after being favored, they will surely speak good words for His Highness by the Emperor's side day and night, so when the time comes, won't the crown prince be at your fingertips?"

Chu Sixian still didn't believe it: "Why are you so sure? Is this Ling Yan a goblin?"

"This..." Ruan Peihan shook his head, "Your Majesty, it's better not to know." Ruan Peihan knew the emperor's big secret. You must never tell His Highness the First Prince.

"Then why does uncle personally dedicate the beauty to the emperor?"

"Impossible! This is what I want to emphasize to Your Highness. Your Highness must choose a suitable time to lure His Majesty to Fengyue Tower, but absolutely must not let the Emperor discover the relationship between Ling Yan and our Ruan family." Ruan Peihan emphasized. , "Otherwise it will be the disaster of destroying the family!"

"Since that's the case, why does uncle have to make an appointment with me every time at Fengyue Tower? Isn't this just increasing my father's suspicion?"

"Your Highness has grown up, and it's understandable to be greedy for beauty for a while."

The emperor may have doubts, but a situation that was set up more than ten years ago, even if he went to investigate, he couldn't find anything. If he couldn't find out, he could only let it go.

More than ten years ago, when Chu Sixian's mother and concubine Ruan Concubine was still alive, she brought a huge secret in the palace to the Ruan family. It was a coincidence that soon after knowing the secret, Ruan Peihan saw a begging girl on the corner of the street. , the same person looks very similar between her eyebrows and eyes, and this girl is Ling Yan.Taking chances, Ruan Peihan took him back to his mansion to raise him secretly for a period of time, and then secretly sent him to Fengyue Building for today's beauty trap.It is also due to the luck of their Ruan family, Ling Yan has become more and more beautiful in the past few years, and she has become more and more like that person.

......

In the Shang Study Room, the Eldest Prince was late again, the Master was so angry that he couldn't bear it any longer, so he went directly to the Imperial Study Room to ask to see the Emperor, and wanted to file a complaint against the Eldest Prince.

There was nothing important in the court today, and none of the courtiers made a report. The emperor had a rare moment of free time. He wanted to take a good rest, but he was woken up again by the noise outside.The emperor opened his closed eyes, which were full of anger, and he spoke with a very impatient voice: "Chen Fu, go out and see who is so bold as to make noise outside the imperial study."

"Yes!" Eunuch Chen went out in response, and came back in a short while to reply, "Your Majesty, it is Lord Du who is making noise outside now, and he is here for the eldest prince's affairs."

"Du Lingshi? Tell him to come in."

"Yes!"

Soon Du Lingshi entered the imperial study: "My minister Du Lingshi kowtowed to Your Majesty."

"Stay flat." The emperor waved his hand at him, "Why are you here to find me at this time?"

After Du Lingshi got up, he said: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness has been late for morning class for several days in a row, and it is like this again today. I am afraid that if this continues, the First Prince's studies will be affected. It will disappoint His Majesty's high expectations."

"Late for several days?" This was the first time Shangshufang asked such a question. The emperor didn't know what to do for a while, so he thought for a long time before saying, "Go and call the eldest prince, I will ask him carefully."

"Yes!"

When Chu Sixian was found, he had a tired face. The emperor looked very disgusted by his appearance, and couldn't help asking: "What did you do last night? Why do you look so sleepy today?"

If it wasn't for the emperor and the first prince in front of him, Du Lingshi's temperament would definitely intervene: what is today? It has been like this for four or five consecutive days. I don't know if a prince who doesn't sleep in the middle of the night will run out Be a thief!

"My son, my son last night..." Chu Sixian faltered for a long time, but he couldn't tell what he did last night.

"There's nothing I can't say. Did you go out of the palace last night or did you delay your sleep because of other things?" The emperor didn't like to see him like this. He was obviously a prince, and he was not as straightforward as a princess like Chu Hui when he could do things and speak. neat.

"I went to bed late yesterday because I was late looking at a painting." Chu Sixian said in a low voice.

"Because of a painting? What kind of painting, you go and get it, and let me and Du Aiqing take a look at it together." The emperor said directly after hearing this.

"Father—" Chu Sixian was a little embarrassed to say it, his head was red all the way to his neck, "It's really inconvenient for me to take out that painting."

"..." Looking at his appearance, the emperor probably guessed what the content of the painting was. If it was indeed what he guessed, then he really couldn't take it out for everyone to watch. "Du Aiqing, I already know about the eldest prince, you go back first, and I will give you a satisfactory answer."

"Then Weichen will retire first." Du Lingshi couldn't understand the riddle between the father and son, and there was still seven points of doubt on his face, but since the emperor opened his mouth, he still chose to retreat.

After Du Lingshi left, the emperor asked again, "What is that painting of yours?"

Without outsiders, Chu Sixian was left with embarrassment, and the painting was not so unhandy.He said embarrassingly: "Returning to my father, it's because I'm not doing my job properly. What I'm looking at is a picture of a beauty." As he spoke, he took out a painting hidden in his sleeve.

The emperor unfolded the scroll, and the big characters "Picture of Fengyue Beauty" came into his eyes, followed by beauties with different styles one after another.The clothing on these beauties is very scanty, which is unsightly in the eyes of the emperor.

"You are so incompetent!" The emperor was about to throw the painting over, but when he was about to let go, he saw a figure on the scroll, and hurriedly took the painting back, asking eagerly, "This painting Where are you from?"

"It's in... the Fengyue Building in the capital."

"Where is Fengyue Tower?"

Chu Sixian lowered his head slightly, and his voice became softer: "Fengyue Tower is the most famous brothel in the capital, and all the beauties in Fengyue Tower are in this picture of Fengyue beauties."

The emperor looked at him with hatred, and questioned: "You are a dignified prince, and you actually go to the brothel?" But think about it, only brothel women can be dressed like this to make people portrait.

"My son deserves to die, I know my mistake!" Seeing the emperor's anger, Chu Sixian knelt on the ground begging for mercy, "I beg my father to forgive me, I will never dare again!"

"You did such a ridiculous thing, if I don't punish you, how can you justify it? You go back and copy the "Courtesy of the Court" ten times, and you are not allowed to leave the palace gate for half a step before you finish copying." The emperor also held it high, gently Let it go, the punishment is fine, but it is definitely not heavy, after all Chu Sixian is his own son.

"Thank you, father, my son will not dare to commit another crime in the future."
