Chapter 42

As soon as he crossed the threshold, he saw that Song Leyu and Yao Ziyu were concentrating on playing chess, while Zhao Tianbao was watching the game. Chen Pu came between the three of them with interest, and looked at the chessboard on the chessboard as expected. Heizi was brutally killed by Baizi.

The three raised their heads to look at Chen Pu, and then returned to the chess game.

Song Leyu held the white piece with two fingers, and it landed on the chessboard, success or failure was decided: "Ziyu, you have no room to turn around, let's play another game."

"Don't play anymore." Yao Ziyu said unhappily, "This chess is so difficult, I have never won it before, why don't you let Tianbao play with you?"

Zhao Tianbao on the side quickly shook his head, "I don't know how to play chess."

"It doesn't matter if you don't know it." Chen Pu smiled implicitly.

Yao Ziyu saw the opportunity and teased the two of them: "You win everything."

Zhao Tianbao was half pushed and half sat down in front of Song Leyu, and the two played a game, it was the little rabbit who was unfamiliar with chess met the big tiger who had no experience in fighting.

But the ending was unexpected, and within the two people's expectations, Zhao Tianbao's black son narrowly beat Song Leyu's white son.Yao Ziyu, who was about to tease the two of them again, shuddered because of Song Leyu's doting eyes before he could say anything, and couldn't say those teasing words.

After the shogi was put away, Song Leyu ordered someone to brew the tea that was brought over from the Shangyang Palace today. He took a sip, and the memories of his childhood immediately flooded back, and he immediately pushed the cup away in his hand.

Seeing Song Leyu's strange behavior, the three of them unanimously picked up the tea cups and took a sip.

Zhao Tianbao thought the tea was quite delicious.

Yao Ziyu was puzzled, isn't this the tea in Xuanlou?He took another sip, it was clearly the tea from Xuanlou, he thought about it, how could there be no tea in Xuanlou, how could there be no tea in the palace!

Chen Pu put down the teacup, and asked with a stomach full of tea, "Is this from Shangyang Palace?"

Song Leyu nodded, his complexion turned ugly.

"I thought Wang Wang wouldn't give it away. Isn't this the first time he learned about tea?"

"Of course he wants to send me off!" Song Leyu showed the veins slightly, gritted his teeth and said the past: "It was the first time they learned how to make tea, and I tasted the tea! Day and night, one cup after another, there is obviously no difference , They insisted that there was a difference, and I drank it for three full months!"

The three of them stared intently at this young master of the Song family who was always talking and laughing, and the next moment they couldn't help laughing, they never imagined that Song Leyu would have such a tormented day.

Amidst the laughter of the three of them, he quickly ordered people to remove the nightmare tea.

At dusk, the eunuchs walked back and forth in the dining room, laying out meals for the people in all palaces and halls.

This is what Yao Ziyu looks forward to most in a day, including breakfast and lunch.On the second day after coming to the palace, Yao Ziyu once said: "A Pu, you said how boring this palace is, only the food is worth looking forward to."

But for Chen Pu, he had eaten the meals in the palace for more than ten years, and there was nothing left that was the only thing worth looking forward to.

On the other side, Huai Jun had just finished his business and was planning to visit his daughter before having dinner with Dong Jing.However, he changed his mind, ordered the eunuch to bring a message to Dong Jing, and went to Zhaohe Hall full of expectations.

He thought to himself, they must have a good meal tonight, just like in the past.

However, when he came to the Zhaohe Hall, he only saw Ah Fu who was pruning the magnolia tree.

Seeing Huai Jun coming, Ah Fu quickly put down the tools in his hand and said, "Your Highness, my servant."

"You continue to do your thing." After that, he walked into the front hall.But he had only walked a few steps before he was stopped by Ah Fu.

"Your Highness, are you looking for Chen Pu? He has gone to the Hall of Harmony."

Huai Jun didn't realize it for a while, and after thinking about it, he remembered that Song Leyu and others lived in the Hall of Qihe.

He turned his head, his calm face couldn't see what he was thinking, "I'll wait for him here for a while."

At this time, it was already dusk, and Ah Fu also cut the magnolia tree for the last time. He was eager to protect the Lord, fearing that Huai Jun would wait for two hours, so he said: "Chen Pu usually comes back after having dinner there. Would you like to let the servant serve the dinner first?"

"No need." Huai Jun waved his hand, and left Zhaohe Hall in an upset.

He thought of the rumors in the palace in the past few days that a new guest came to the Shangyang Palace, and Nuo Xu always regarded him as the honored guest.

He subconsciously thought that this guest was Chen Pu, but he didn't have the courage to ask about it, so he left it to him, but he didn't expect Chen Pu to be by Song Leyu's side when he came here full of expectations.

He was so angry that he wanted to go straight back to Renfu Palace, but he turned a corner on the way and came to Huairen Palace.

At this moment, Min Xuan was still reading in the book hall. After being notified by his father-in-law, he knew that Huai Jun was here, so he quickly put down the book in his hand and came to the main hall.

"See Your Highness." He winked again and ordered all the eunuchs and maidservants in the palace to retreat.

After the hall was emptied, Huai Junfang said, "General Jiang is on his way to Beijing."

Min Xuan was a little excited when he heard the news. He knew that the new life he was looking forward to was coming soon. From then on, he no longer had to live in anxiety.

He pretended to be calm and said: "General Jiang went to Beijing to attend the funeral. If it is not necessary, don't ask him to add trifles."

"En." Huai Jun lowered his voice, "The Ding'an army is also on their way."

A wave of anger surged into Min Xuan's heart. The nightmare that chased him day and night was still unfinished. He grasped his thoughts hard, his fingers sunk deep in his palm, and the pain forced him to see the reality that he was only one step away. .

He won't let it all fall by the wayside.

"Brother Emperor, there is only one step to take. Your Highness, your chances of winning are still relatively high."

"What I want is an absolute chance of winning." Huai Jun changed the subject, "The next step is to rely on Song Leyu's financial resources. The Dingwu Army needs a batch of rations."

"Tomorrow I will go to the Hall of Harmony..." As soon as he thought of the nightmare that was chasing after him, he turned around and said, "I will go to the Hall of Harmony right away."

Huai Jun thought for a moment before saying, "I'll go with you."

When the two arrived at the Qihe Hall from the Huairen Hall, the sky had already turned deep purple, and Chen Pu, Song Leyu and others were already having dinner around the round table.

Min Xuan was quite surprised that Chen Pu was present, but after thinking about it, he never overestimated Chen Pu's character, and he already felt that Chen Pu had another relationship with Song Leyu when he was in Yangzhou.

He looked at Huai Jun, but Huai Jun still had a calm expression on his face.

"Young Master Song, Your Highness has something important to discuss with you, please take a step to speak."

Song Leyu was still eating on his own, and he, who was used to being easygoing, refused straight away: "Fifth prince, the villain never talks about business during meals."

However, except for this proud son of the Song family, the other three put down their bowls and chopsticks, stood up and stared cautiously at Min Xuan and Huai Jun, especially Chen Pu, their eyes didn't know where to put them.

Regarding Song Leyu's words and deeds, Minxuan was angry again, but at present they are asking for help from others, so he had no choice but to hold back his anger, and said mockingly in his heart - don't look at whose food you are eating.

Huai Jun stared at Chen Pu closely, "We interrupted your meal, it's okay, we'll wait for you here."

Song Leyu raised his eyebrows and continued to eat his meal comfortably, but he called a maid to come in and asked him to add an extra pair of bowls and chopsticks for His Royal Highness and the Fifth Prince.

Huai Jun sat next to Chen Pu with all his heart, but Song Leyu beside him did not move away, and Yao Ziyu sat closer to him. In the end, Huai Jun and Min Xuan had to sit between Yao Ziyu and Zhao Tianbao.

The dinner became silent, only Song Leyu put the food into the bowls of Zhao Tianbao and Chen Pu from time to time, saying something like: "This is good.", "Eat more.", "Let's eat vegetables", and so on. In this quiet environment, it fell into Huai Jun's ears more clearly.

From this point of view, Song Leyu is like a rich son who hugs left and right and enjoys the blessings of everyone.

He remembered that he was the only one who did these things for Chen Pu in the past, but today he watched Song Leyu enthusiastically serve Chen Pu like a player in the game?

Thinking of this, Huai Jun couldn't help but clenched his chopsticks tightly, the veins on his hands popped out,

Chen Pu, who was watching quietly, immediately stopped Song Leyu, who brought vegetables for him, "I'll do it myself, you can eat."

However, just as he stopped Song Leyu, Yao Ziyu who was sitting on the right put another green vegetable into his bowl.

He understood their intentions, but this was indeed not a good way, he didn't want to involve them in the matter between himself and Huai Jun, at the moment he was sitting opposite Huai Jun, and he could already feel Huai Jun's anger.

Song Leyu really wanted to force Huai Jun to see the reality clearly and let Chen Pu leave, but Yao Ziyu obviously didn't have this intention, he never thought about it at all.

He picked up another vegetable, but he put this vegetable in Min Xuan's bowl on the right.

Min Xuan, who was not used to getting close to people, gave him a glare, but after weighing it up, he reluctantly accepted Yao Ziyu's food, and said a word between his teeth: "You are so polite."

This was for Huai Jun, but Huai Jun couldn't stand it.

As a result, everyone didn't like the meal, except Yao Ziyu.

After the meal, Huai Jun, Min Xuan and Song Leyu went to discuss important matters in the book hall, but when Huai Jun was facing Song Leyu, he always thought of his intimacy with Chen Pu, so he couldn't concentrate on the matter at all.

However, this son of the Song family is used to being casual, and he is dissatisfied with the two of them from the bottom of his heart, and the round of dialogue is mostly perfunctory.

Min Xuan endured his impatience, and still talked to Song Leyu in a good voice, but Huai Jun couldn't help it, and said coldly: "Mr. Song, you will prepare this money for me in these two days."

After finishing speaking, he turned around, pushed the door open, and strode away, Min Xuan hurriedly followed.

However, he had only taken two steps when he heard Song Leyu sneer, "The villain obeys the order." Then he turned his head, pointed at Song Leyu with one hand, and said angrily: "Song Leyu, this is the imperial palace, don't be too presumptuous !"

Song Leyu shrugged and ignored Min Xuan.

Min Xuan snorted, and followed Huai Jun's pace.
