have something to say

Xiao Jianshen's invitation to "return to the East Palace together" did not get Fu Tinghuan's approval, but after leaving Yungui Village, Fu Tinghuan still returned to Qionglou.This is also expected, but it is the simplest way to welcome or refuse.

In the past ten or so days, Qionglou, which was riddled with holes due to several successive fights, has already taken on a new look.This is naturally from Wang Ranggong's handwriting.Ever since the Great Eunuch of the Eastern Palace learned the news that Xiao Jianshen and Fu Tinghuan were together in Yungui Village, he was immediately enlightened, and realized whether he was thinking a little too lightly, or he didn't see clearly that the country and the beauty were not in the same place. Conflict can be both!

Therefore, after he reassessed Fu Tinghuan's position in the prince's mind, he immediately recruited craftsmen to urge them to repair Qionglou overnight, and immediately opened the warehouse of the East Palace. In Qionglou, it is guaranteed that all of them have their origins, and all of them are rare.

Xiao Jianshen was sitting in Qionglou with Fu Tinghuan at this moment, tasting tea and admiring flowers.

This was the third day Xiao Jianshen came back from Yungui Village.

They are located in the northeast corner of the first floor of Qionglou.This place was originally used as a study in Xiao Jianshen's plan. It is far away from the street, and outside the window is a rockery pool and patches of sparse bamboo. The sound of the water and the sound of leaves are very leisurely.But not long after Fu Tinghuan moved in, he removed all the desks and bookcases, leaving only a long couch by the window and a few bamboo shelves for tea sets, and used it as a tea room.In front of the bamboo forest in the backyard, camellias of different colors and varieties were brought in, most of which were double-petaled and as big as bowls.

Today's weather is not bad, the sky is high and the clouds are calm, and the breeze is coming.The windows of the teahouse are supported by poles, and various camellias, white, red, purple, and yellow, compete for beauty under the windows. Jianshen's original arrangement seemed much more popular.

"Is Maoqing still used to living here? Has the injury improved recently?" Xiao Jian took a deep sip of tea and put down the cup. He tasted that the tea in the cup was Dahongpao, a new tribute from Jiangnan this year. The year is only one catty, and his crown prince seems to have been allocated two taels in the East Palace...

His eyes suddenly fell behind Fu Tinghuan again.On the white wall like a snow cave behind Fu Tinghuan, there is a calligraphy and painting hanging, which is a wild grass of his favorite calligrapher.Then he saw the camellias outside the house again. When he came in, he wondered where Xue Maoqing found so many rare camellias, and wondered if the other party had forgotten that all his luggage was burned in the fire... Then The more he looked at these camellias, the more familiar they became. Finally, he remembered a camellia with three colors, more graceful than a peony, and as pure as a white lotus.

This three-color tea plant was a seed he brought back two years ago. After he planted it himself, he has been malnourished for a whole year, and almost withered and died in the middle. He took care of it himself for another month before saving it. Since he was rescued, he has grown more beautiful and dazzling day by day. Although he doesn't take a flower very seriously, he remembers it every now and then, and he will take a special look at it.

Any way you look at it, it's all on your mind.

Xiao Jianshen... felt a little stuck.

Naihe has a face that makes people want to kneel down and worship him at the first sight. No matter whether Xiao Jianshen is heartbroken or distressed, no one can see it out.

Fu Tinghuan naturally couldn't either.

So after he answered Xiao Jianshen "it's okay", he naturally talked with Xiao Jianshen about the result of his private visit to the outskirts of the city: "Could it be that your highness went to the outskirts of Beijing a few days ago for the affairs of the court?"

Xiao Jianshen didn't hide anything, and quickly briefed him about the land.

Fu Tinghuan's eyes flickered, and although he immediately covered it up with a gesture of drinking tea, Xiao Jianshen still clearly saw that the other party's flickering eyes flashed unmistakable ardor and concentration: "The land is the people. In most villages in the world, as long as there is still a mouthful of food, those farmers will not leave their homes; even if some accidents happen when they go out, they still pay attention to returning to their roots..."

The other party seems to be very concerned about this.Xiao Jianshen said while thinking: "But I'm afraid there are not many effective ways at this time."

A strange look gradually appeared in Fu Tinghuan's eyes.He no longer showed a kind of careless coquettish like before, but stood up from the couch, crossed the table and came to Xiao Jianshen's side, and analyzed with Xiao Jianshen: "I don't know what the prince thinks? There is only so much land in the land, and if it is given to one party, that party will definitely have nothing; if it is given to another party, this party will of course gouge out its heart... This is a matter of self-interest, no wonder everyone disagrees."

"Your Highness is indeed pregnant with the nine tripods and holds Shangfang, but for the sake of the stability of the country and the safety of the people, you can't rush forward, you have to act slowly."

"Have you thought about it, Your Highness, if you can't be straight, you can find the straight in the song; if you can't, you can use the fake to find the truth..."

With a poisonous trick, Xiao Jianshen's ear gradually revealed its beautiful beginning painted in blood and bones.

The more Xiao Jianshen listened, the more surprised he was. Even if his literary and martial arts were top-notch, he was now extremely knowledgeable about government affairs... Are their demands on spies really so high now?And hearing such a plan, it can't be figured out overnight. How does the other party know that he cares about the land—or the other party also cares about the land?

Xiao Jianshen looked at Fu Tinghuan's face so close at hand.He noticed that the other party had just put on his clothes and stood up, a few strands of hair on his head were hanging down from his forehead, and his face was probably a little dizzy due to nervousness, his lips were bright red, like A petal of the red camellia outside the house...

At this moment, Fu Tinghuan had calmed down from the emotional turmoil.He realized that the distance between the two of them was a little too close.He found that Xiao Jianshen's eyes were fixed on him.

As a man, Fu Tinghuan certainly knows what this look represents!He was about to back away calmly, but as soon as his shoulder moved, his right arm was supported by Xiao Jianshen!

Xiao Jianshen glanced at the teapot on the table that was almost swept to the ground by Fu Tinghuan's sleeve. This was a teapot made by his mentor... Didn't he store this thing in the deepest part of the warehouse?Why was it also moved here... He moved Fu Tinghuan's arm away calmly, and by the way, he raised his hand to put the lock of hair that was hanging in front of the other party and blocking his sight behind Fu Tinghuan's ear, and said slowly : "Maoqing be careful."

Fu Tinghuan only felt her scalp tighten and her arms go numb!

Xiao Jian paused for a moment, and also felt that it was a bit strange to hold the other party's arm like this, so he imitated the ancient benevolent monarchs holding hands and virtuous ministers, holding Fu Tinghuan's hand and said softly: "Today's words, come out of your mouth and into my ears , Don’t say that three people tell six ears. If the news leaks out, I’m afraid that Qing’s life will be in danger in an instant.”

Fu Tinghuan was silent for a short moment, of course it wasn't because he was moved. In fact, the numbness in his body had spread from his arms to his hands, and he even felt a little sore all over his body: "You treat me like a gentleman, and I will repay you as a gentleman. , what's the harm in smashing your body to pieces?"

Xiao Jianshen felt that the atmosphere was right at the moment!He glanced at the various things in the room again, and the other ordinary favorites are nothing more... at least his master's teapot on the table must be taken back!After he pondered for a while, he took out a tube of jade flute from his sleeve pocket, which was completely white and flawless, except for a crooked red line at the sound hole.

He handed this jade flute to Fu Tinghuan with both hands, and said: "Maoqing don't need to worry. This Xiao is a gift to Maoqing, Maoqing holds this, seeing Xiao is like seeing someone."

Fu Tinghuan: "..." He also paused and paused, and soon a complexion appeared on his face, but the complexity was suppressed by him in an instant, and he smiled and said, "Blessed by the crown prince, but I am not happy with you." Nothing long..."

What Xiao Jianshen was waiting for was this sentence. He smiled slightly, seemingly casually, but actually copied the teapot in his hand with a clear goal, and said with a smile: "Although Mao Qing has no personal possessions? This teapot looks very fond of it alone, Mao Send it to Yu Gu."

For several days after that, every time Xiao Jianshen came to Qionglou, he would bring all kinds of things to try to exchange his favorite things with Fu Tinghuan.Out of some kind of secret unwillingness to be seen by spies about his inner preferences, every time he comes here, he tastes tea, cooks wine, enjoys flowers and plays chess with Fu Tinghuan. Take things out and exchange them.

Fu Tinghuan didn't have any guesses about this.To him, the things Xiao Jianshen brought back were countless times more valuable than those potted flowers and paintings, especially since they were delivered right to his heart.

Sometimes in the dead of night, he would play with the magical weapons or military books in Shiji brought by Xiao Jianshen. Although he has always been full of wit and tricks, he was not without confusion. He didn't understand why Xiao Jianshen could know what he liked. He naturally didn't think that he had exposed his flaws, so he had a vague feeling that he had his own destiny...

The lamps around the table were like stars.

Fu Tinghuan was reclining in the open room, he had just bathed and his long black satin-like hair was still dripping with water.His fingers caressed the white jade flute that Xiao Jianshen sent on the first day. For some reason, the white jade was so unusual that the tentacles felt warm. He looked at the red line on the jade again. In the slight wind, The thread on the jade is slowly flowing as if it is alive.

He pressed the jade flute to his lips, tied his breath into a thread, and when he blew the first vibrato, somehow, he remembered the sentence Xiao Jianshen said, "Holding this thing, when you see Xiao Ru I come.

Xiao, Xiao.

As he thought about it, the sound of a flute sounded softly, uh, if it was illusory, he saw a whirlwind rising from the ground around the open pavilion, bamboo leaves rustled, and camellias that bloomed beautifully during the day were produced at night. Ghost-like shadows, he blew a whole piece of music gently and lingeringly, but outside the four long veils, countless scattered black shadows emerged out of thin air, or separated or merged, like demons and ghosts in unison!

When the last note also jumped out of the jade flute, Fu Tinghuan casually put down the weapon in his hand, only to see the candlelight in the hall was brightly lit for a while, and the ground outside the hall was full of residual red, all camellia petals.

Xiao Jianshen had seen countless spies.But he had never seen a spy who could do what Fu Tinghuan did.

This period of time was the closest he had to Fu Tinghuan.Once people become intimate, many things cannot be hidden.Every time he sat and talked with Fu Tinghuan, he couldn't help but be amazed at the other party's erudition.It seems that just as the other party said in the restaurant that day, he "spring flowers and autumn moon, swords, guns, swords and halberds; astrology, divination, astronomy and geography. There is nothing wrong with it."

Their conversations often fall into this situation in the middle of the conversation: "How does your Highness see this?"

"..." I don't know astronomy, I don't know if it will rain or it will be sunny tomorrow.

"How does your Highness see this?"

"..." Although Gu knows eighteen kinds of weapons, he can't forge them.

"How does your Highness see this?"

"..." Gu... I don't know which law says that the prince must know Danqing, know how to play chess, know how to play the piano, and be good at flute.

After several days in succession, Xiao Jianshen had a slight psychological shadow about "how does your Highness see this?" He really didn't want to see Fu Tinghuan, but he had already walked 99 steps out of a hundred steps, and there was no reason to stop halfway .In order not to fall behind when talking about spring flowers and autumn moons, swords, guns, halberds, astrology, divination, astronomy and geography, etc., he has spent the past few days with the library in the palace, and almost spends his spare time every day. After collecting books in the palace for more than ten days in a row, even though he is not a weak person with martial arts, he can't help feeling mentally overwhelmed.

So during this day, Xiao Jianshen did not immediately go to the palace to look up the chess records that Fu Tinghuan said, but went back to the East Palace for a good night's rest.When he woke up the next day and finished dealing with the day's government affairs, he was thinking of entering the palace as quickly as possible in this spare time, but suddenly heard the news that Xue Maoqing had entered the East Palace!

Xiao Jianshen: "..."

Seeing Xiao Jianshen's face, Fu Tinghuan smiled happily and said, "I wonder if Your Highness has the solution to the chess game last night?"

Xiao Jianshen: "..."

Is it to admit that I was lazy last night or to admit that I am not as good as the other party.

This thought only existed in Xiao Jianshen's mind for a moment, and then he remembered what day it was.

He smiled brightly and wittily, pointed to the bright clouds in the sky outside the window, and said: "Today is a beautiful day, you and I should travel hand in hand, and it is not too late to postpone the chess game for a few days."

After saying that, in order to prevent Fu Ting Huan from changing his mind, he took the other party's hand involuntarily, and they left the Prince's East Palace together under the shadow of the setting sun.
