Yuan Xiao stared blankly at Kou'er, unable to understand what he meant for a moment.But looking at Kou'er's appearance, he doesn't seem to mind much.But in the final analysis, Kouer can do this only because he has never seen him like that.

Kou'er patted him on the back of the head, his attitude remained the same as before, "If you don't go to the grandson of the emperor and the young master, you should wait."

Remembering that there is still business to do, the Lantern Festival will not be delayed any longer.

When he arrived at Xu You'an's place, Yuan Xiao explained in detail what he had asked.At the beginning, he was shocked for a moment when he knew the mastermind behind the scenes, but the eldest grandson of the emperor and young master Xu didn't react in any surprise after hearing it, which made Yuan Xiao a little puzzled.

Xu Youan looked at Zhao Hongyin with a somewhat impatient expression, "This time, I was really being used by someone."

Zhao Hongyin smiled, but didn't get into his eyes, he said softly: "All the evidence points to her, so I can't ignore it.

"

It was night, so Zhao Hongyin went to the prince's courtyard and stayed for about half an hour before coming out.

All the evidence points to the prince's most favored concubine recently, Mrs. Zheng.Of course, Zhao Hongyin couldn't handle the matter without bypassing the prince, so he was able to communicate with the prince at night.

The prince was very angry after hearing this, and he also felt sorry for the hardship of the eldest son.He didn't mention the matter of the Zheng family, but only let Zhao Hongyin handle it by himself.Zhao Hongyin knew that the prince wanted to vent his anger, so he complied.Regarding the possibility of being framed, the prince did not say, nor did he mention it.

It's just that the Zheng family... Zhao Hongyin asked someone to investigate in advance.

Relying on the favor of the crown prince, the Zheng family is domineering and domineering. He likes to toss the servants when he is angry. A few days ago, he accidentally killed a little girl.That little girl happened to have a relationship with the young man who identified Zheng's family, but unfortunately, the sky failed to fulfill her wishes, and Yin and Yang were separated.

With Zheng's cruel temperament, Zhao Hongyin and Xu Youan couldn't show any compassion even if they were wronged.

But they will not easily let go of the people behind the scenes.

For Mrs. Zheng, in order not to hurt the crown prince's face, Zhao Hongyin gave her a white silk and cut it off by herself.

But the boy was healed.

The person who asked people to take care of the boy was Yuan Xiao, so he would often go to see how the boy was recovering from his injuries.

It's just that he left a terrible shadow on the young man, every time he saw Yuan Xiao, the young man would tremble like something.

Yuan Xiao knew that Zhao Hongyin had a purpose in keeping the young man, so he also came to be a lobbyist. If the young man was smart enough to tell his real master, it would be okay to keep him alive.

It's just that no matter how much Yuan Xiao coerces and lures the young man, there is only one sentence, "My lord gave me a chance to take revenge, I can't betray him!"

"



Listening to Yuan Xiao's report, Xu You'an couldn't help frowning, "You're so stubborn?"

Zhao Hongyin nodded slightly, "It's a pity. It's fine if he doesn't want to say anything. I'll send him away tonight."

Yuan Xiao was a little surprised to see Zhao Hongyin let go of the boy so easily.He glanced at Xu Youan, and found that that person did not express dissatisfaction, and felt a little strange.

It was night, the boy was sent out of the East Palace, but he didn't know that he was followed by someone who was not far or near behind him.

In the East Palace, Xu You'an tilted his head and smiled, "When did Brother Hong Yin have those people, why didn't You'an know?"

Zhao Hongyin paused, "I was ordered by the emperor's grandmother, and I don't need them at ordinary times."

Xu Youan raised her feet and said "hmm".

Seeing that he was cute, Zhao Hongyin said in his heart, "You'an let me hug you."

Xu You'an thought that he heard it wrong, "What did you say?"

Zhao Hongyin just looked at him and smiled, and didn't say any more.Xu Youan remained silent for a while, then jumped off the stool, walked around in front of Zhao Hongyin, opened his arms, "Hug..." At this moment, a man in black rolled in from the window... The two sides looked at each other very awkwardly.

Zhao Hongyin embraced the frozen Xu Youan into his arms, and sighed contentedly in his heart.

Xu Youan buried his face in Zhao Hongyin's chest, the tips of his ears were red.Zhao Hongyin really wanted to reach out and touch the lovely red, but he restrained himself well with the presence of outsiders.

"Have you found him?" Zhao Hongyin asked while patting Xu Youan's back.It looked like she was trying to lull a baby to sleep.The visitor kept his head down all the time, and when he heard Zhao Hongyin's question, he lowered his head even more, "The subordinates are incompetent, and they couldn't find the person behind the scenes.

people. "

Zhao Hongyin frowned, but kept moving his hands, "What's going on? Where is that boy now?"

"The subordinate waited behind the target, but unexpectedly a cold arrow took the target's life. Afterwards, the subordinate waited and searched all over the place and found no suspicious person. I also ask your highness to apologise."

At this moment, Xu Youan didn't care about being ashamed, he turned his body and asked, "Who are the people living around that place?"

"They're all ordinary farmers."

"Why can't the archery man pretend to be a farmer?" Xu You'an was a little displeased, Zhao Hongyin's people were too unreliable in their work

some.

The visitor came to his senses, but was about to say something but was interrupted by Zhao Hongyin, "Going back at this time, that person has already disappeared without a trace.

"

The visitor can only apologize, "Please punish the emperor's eldest grandson."

Zhao Hongyin wanted to forgive him, but remembering Xu Youan's words before, he said: "Go down and get [-] boards each."

"Thank you, His Royal Highness, the grandson of the emperor." The person who came was grateful and left.

Zhao Hongyin was afraid that Xu Youan would feel that he was being punished lightly, so he explained: "They are usually responsible for keeping me safe. They have never done such a thing before, no wonder they."

Xu Youan nodded, "This also requires a group of capable people."

Zhao Hongyin nodded and said yes, "This time I will take this opportunity to clear out the people in the courtyard, and then ask the emperor's grandmother for some people."

After all, Xu You'an couldn't fully trust Empress Ci Ren's people, but at this time they couldn't be so picky, it was good enough to have someone hired, and the rest of the team still had to be cultivated by themselves.

The occurrence of poisonous weeds in Zhao Hongyin's yard cannot be concealed.If it weren't for the thought that the prince had just recovered from his serious injury, the old emperor would have to reprimand him.The old emperor who felt sorry for his grandson summoned Zhao Hongyin to comfort him, and rewarded him with a lot of things to calm him down.Empress Ciren even requested an imperial order to see Zhao Hongyin.

Regarding Zhao Hongyin's request, Empress Ciren was very happy, and her grandson finally knew that she would fight for it, which made her very pleased.

By the time Zhao Hongyin and Xu Youan finished handling the matters in the courtyard, the palace examination was over.

Xu Youan and Zhao Hongyin couldn't help but be surprised when the palace examination questions were passed on to Xu Youan and Zhao Hongyin. The palace examination questions were the same as those asked by the old emperor in Shangshufang back then.

Xu Youan knew in his heart that the crown prince belonged to the county and county faction, and the selection of talents this time was mainly for the purpose of reform, if he stood on the side of the county and county system in the palace examination, he would have a bright future... I don't know how brother Tuoba made the selection.

Seeing that he was distracted by the palace examination, Zhao Hongyin knew that he was worried about Tuoba Xuanxiao.Although he was panicked, Zhao Hongyin still said generously: "The day after tomorrow will be You'an's birthday, and I will be able to meet Brother Tuoba at that time, so it's not too late to ask."

Xu Youan nodded, and then he stopped thinking.

There are not many papers in the palace examination, and the crown prince glanced at almost every paper because of his importance.If it has something to do with the county system, he will be more patient.

Suddenly there was a test paper that caught the prince's eyes, but when he looked at the name again, he frowned again. How could he be a foreigner?

Xu Youan's birthday came under Zhao Hong's ardent anticipation, for some reason he was extraordinarily happy, it made him feel happier than his own birthday.You An is finally one year older, although he still looks like a doll, but one year older is still different.

Zhao Hongyin can't help but close his eyes and describe Xu Youan's appearance ten years later in his mind. He thinks about it, but he doesn't know how to write it down, because You'an is always more beautiful than he imagined.

He was distracted, but the sound of Yuan Xiao's footsteps approached, "It's time for the grandson of the emperor to leave."

Xu Youan was born in April when the grass grows and the birds fly, which is a lively and vibrant month.The warmth of Nuanyang made Zhao Hongyin feel comfortable all over, just like You'an, warming his whole heart.

Because of his birthday, Xu You'an had already returned home first, and Zhao Hongyin's longing was accumulating day by day, and it was about to spring up from the mud like bamboo shoots, fortunately, fortunately, he could see her today.Otherwise, he would have to go to the Duke's mansion to pick him up again.

Preparations for Xu Youan's birthday have been in full swing for several days, some respectable people in Jinling have posted posts, Xu Guogong is looking forward to it even more.He couldn't help but want to make his outstanding grandson known to others.

He knew Xu Guogong's thoughts, so he also attached great importance to today's banquet.As soon as it was dawn, Xu Youan and Kouer got ready.After changing into the new clothes her mother sewed by herself, Kou'er couldn't help clapping her hands and praised, "Young master is so pretty!"

Xu Youan raised her hair up today, and braided it back into a small braid, and tied it at the back of her head.On the smooth and full forehead, there is a forehead inlaid with gold thread.The red clothes that Wang sewed this time are very neat on the upper body, and the color is very suitable for his skin color.It was red, and the lips looked like they had just eaten rouge.

He looked at himself in the bronze mirror and smiled and said, "You only know the word good-looking, but you can't think of anything else?"

Kou'er was so embarrassed, rolled his eyeballs a few times, and finally sighed, "I just think it's really good-looking, and I really can't think of anything else."

11I"

Qj〇

Xu Youan snorted softly, "I want you to learn more characters from Yuan Xiao, so you can just smell the fragrance of Yuan Xiao's body."

Kou'er blushed with anxiety, "Young master, how did you say that I am like a dog? I can read a lot of characters and even read military books. And

"And what?" Xu Youan asked while getting up from his side.

Kou'er turned around after him, and said falteringly, "Besides, Lantern Festival is really fragrant, and it's not what I want to smell."

Xu Youan turned around and stared at him, "Why didn't I smell it?"

Kou'er wanted to fight him, "You can smell it if you get closer."

"Whatever I do, I want to get close to him. If I have free time like you, I'll get close to Yuan Xiao, and I'm not afraid that others will dislike you."

Kou'er was not convinced, "Yuan Xiao doesn't dislike me..." He paused, then laughed again, "Don't the grandson of the emperor also dislike you?" Xu Youan raised his hand and was about to hit him, "I'll make you talk bad!"

Kou'er was not afraid of him, being chased by Xu You'an and running all over the room, he laughed as he ran, "Isn't the eldest grandson of the emperor so fragrant?

I?

Kou'er has long arms and legs, Xu You'an really couldn't catch up with him, so he laughed at himself in the end.Suddenly the two stopped together, looked at each other and kept laughing.

Fifty steps laugh at a hundred steps, no one is much better than anyone else.

Xu Youan straightened the messy hem of his clothes, straightened his waist, and said with a smile: "Let's go, pick up Xiangxiang."

Kou'er immediately responded, and followed Xu Youan out of the courtyard.
