The spring flowering period is short, with a gust of wind and rain, the flowers that were flourishing a few days ago disappeared and were scattered on the ground and in the pool water. They were quickly swept away and washed away, and the noise on the branches was replaced by dark green leaves.

Deng Yi stood on the porch, drinking tea and looking at the green trees in the yard.

"Second Master, your official hat." The boy ran out from behind holding the hat.

Deng Yi hummed twice.

The boy saw the official robes still placed in the room and asked, "It's strange, why doesn't the Second Master go to court today?"

An attendant came quickly from outside and said in a low voice: "Sir, the border county has sent the latest news. It is Xie Yanlai who is entering the capital."

Deng Yi finished the tea: "I knew it would be like this..."

Just as the servant was about to reach out, the new servant had already taken the tea bowl: "Fortunately, the master has other preparations." He paused at this point, "Do you want to tell the queen about Liang Qiang's coming to Beijing? After all, the Liang family and the queen had previously

——”

Deng Yi also knew what happened between the Liang family and the queen.

"Actually, the Queen and the Liang family had nothing to do with each other. They were just at odds with each other. As for the Liang family's later conviction and exile, it was Xie Yanfang who cleansed the prince's staff. In the name of their children's affairs, the Queen had to bear the vengeance of the Liang family.

."He said.

The attendant nodded: "Despite this fact, people will always remember the affairs of these children more. If rumors spread over time, even if there is no hatred, it will become a real hatred."

Becoming a true enemy will not do the Queen any good, it will only do some people good.

Deng Yi said calmly: "What I want to ask is the details of the border army. It is a major military and national matter and has nothing to do with personal matters. Just like the Queen's previous arrangements for the border army were also important military and national matters and have nothing to do with personal matters. I won't ask."

The attendant understood what he meant. Xie Yanlai, Xie Yanfang's younger brother, followed the queen to the border army and began to lead the troops. It is said that he now also leads Chu Ling's Luocheng Guards.

Neither the Queen nor the frontier army asked the Taifu for instructions on this matter, and the Taifu did not ask or object. This is the Taifu's trust in the Queen.

"The Taifu's trust in the Queen is naturally sincere." The attendant said softly, "But he is afraid that Mr. Xie will provoke her." He lowered his voice again, "It is a coincidence that Xie Yanfang is back at this time."

Deng Yi smiled and took the official hat from the boy's hand: "I'm really afraid that he will be unlucky. I'm just waiting for his luck."

The young man was confused after hearing this, and when he came to his senses, he went to get the official robe from the room. The attendant had already gone there first, got the official robe, and put it on for Deng Yi himself. He continued what he had said before and said with a smile: "My lord, if you are ready, you can

good."

While they were talking here, another servant came in from outside the door.

"Sir," he said with a salute, "the king has given the old lady a birthday gift, do you accept it or not?"

The King of Zhen, also known as the King of Zhongshan, was closely watched by the court this year, and the troops and horses outside the Zhongshan King's County were surrounded like a steel ring. However, the King of Zhongshan was not affected at all, and the county was also like a steel ring, and the court could not spy at all.

After all, the court knew what happened when King Zhongshan confessed in the first place. It did not really subdue King Zhongshan, but only forced him to take a step back.

In order not to provoke King Zhongshan to launch another army, the imperial court also took a step back.

Therefore, the King of Zhongshan was not trapped in Zhongshan County. He could come and give gifts to Deng Yi without any hindrance.

But this is not to please the Taifu, but to deliberately disgust him.

Deng Yi is still accused of colluding with the King of Zhongshan, but the actual situation is that the King of Zhongshan wants him to die.

Deng Yi's expression remained calm after hearing this, and he reached out and counted: "Although it's a month early, I'll accept it since it was sent to me."

He turned around and called the boy.

"You go and meet them."

The boy who was idle nearby responded, "He talks about the intrigues and intrigues in the court, and he is quick to serve people. He is not as good as these newcomers, but he is very familiar with receiving gifts."

He ran quickly to see the gift giver.

The person who gave the gift was an acquaintance, and the boy recognized him, Mr. Ning.

"Mr. Ning hasn't been here for a long time." The boy greeted him warmly.

Ning Kun looked at the young man. The young man had not changed, but the original small house had been replaced by a large mansion, and Deng Yi could not see it easily.

He was too lazy to go see him and said simply: "Then thank you Taifu for being so unfaithful."

It sounded like he was scolding the second master. The boy didn't understand and didn't bother to pay attention. Anyway, the second master has never been praised by anyone.

He doesn't care whether giving gifts is flattering or disgusting. Gifts are just given here and there, and they are accepted as they are given. They will be given out in the future anyway.

"Thank you very much," the boy said, and then said, "Come again next time."

Ning Kun sneered: "Don't worry, as long as you are in power, my prince will treat you as an honored guest." After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and got into the car.

Deng Yi went out to mount his horse and saw a car entering the Taifu Mansion and another car driving away slowly.

"It's for the Crown Prince Xiao Xun," the attendant said in a low voice.

Deng Yi smiled: "The prince is still very concerned about the prince."

"More than just thinking about it, my lord, you have never been to the post house." The attendant got excited when he talked about this, and his eyebrows were dancing, "The King of Zhongshan has almost turned the post house into a small Zhongshan Prince's Palace, with splendid decorations and priceless furnishings. The Prince of Zhongshan can visit him at any time.

You can eat local products from Zhongshan County and even have spring water delivered to you."

Deng Yi looked at where the inn was and said calmly: "How pitiful the hearts of parents in the world are."

…

…

The post is now called Shizi Suo by people in the capital.

The guards outside the Prince's Palace were heavily guarded, but when a car approached and saw the sign on the car and the driver showing his badge, the soldiers got out of the way, the closed door immediately opened wide, and the car slowly drove in.

The layout of the post has not changed, but the appearance of the houses and courtyards has changed.

There are two pomegranate trees planted in the yard. They are lush and green, with faint buds. You can imagine how they will bloom brightly and brightly in the near future.

"Not bad, not bad." Ning Kun looked at it carefully, "The prince is still worried that the tree will not survive. It seems that digging a whole yard of soil will still have an effect. This year, the prince can see the pomegranate flowers at home."

"You can also eat the big pomegranates at home." The attendants joked around.

There was a splash, and water splashed over, splashing on the ground. Ning Kun and his entourage subconsciously avoided it. When they raised their heads, they saw Tie Ying standing on the steps, looking at them coldly.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "You are here, do you want to wash up? Do you want to drink tea?" Tie Ying asked, without waiting for their answer, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the back, "Please help yourself.

.”

The attendant did not dare to say more, bowed his head and backed away.

Ning Kun was not dissatisfied with Tieying's attitude, and nodded: "We understand, Tieying, go ahead on your own." He then asked, "Is the Crown Prince busy?"

Tieying sneered and said, "Your Majesty is not busy, what is there to be busy with here." After that, he ignored him, picked up the copper basin and walked away.

The attendant then stepped forward and whispered: "Tie Ying's temper is getting worse and worse. Can you take good care of the Crown Prince? It's better to send more people."

After Xiao Xun entered the capital and was imprisoned, he did not want the attendants given by the court, nor did he ask the King of Zhongshan to send any attendants. Ning Kun, who originally followed the prince, was also sent back, with only Tie Ying by his side.

Ning Kun glanced at him and said: "There are too many people in this kind of trapped place, which makes it noisy. The prince is a person who loves purity. As for Tieying's temper, hasn't it always been like this? After I go back, you know what to say.

?"

The entourage looked at his warning eyes and understood what he meant. If they went back and said that Tie Ying lost his temper at them, wouldn't it make people misunderstand that the prince had a grudge?

If the prince knew about the prince's resentment, he would definitely feel sad, worried and self-blame.

"Your Majesty, the last thing I want is for the prince to worry." Ning Kun said coldly.

The entourage hurriedly responded: "My lord, don't worry at all. Tie Ying has seen us and treated us skillfully. One person is worth ten people, and the prince is also well taken care of by him."

Ning Kun nodded and said with a smile: "I'm going to see the prince right away. When I left, the prince said he wanted to learn painting. I'll see if the prince has made any progress."

Ning Kun came to the study alone - the study was also renovated from an ordinary house in a post office, with a dazzling array of bookshelves and famous paintings hanging. These furnishings, including tables and chairs, were all shipped from Zhongshan County.

The window has also been changed into a full moon hole, and a beauty vase is placed in front of the window. A handful of willow branches are inserted in the vase, swaying in the wind.

Standing next to the swaying willow branches was a young man, wearing a long, aqua-sleeved coat with his back facing away.

Looking at this figure from behind, Ning Kun's eyes warmed slightly, and he leaned over and saluted: "Ning Kun has met His Highness the Crown Prince."

Xiao Xun seemed to be awakened, turned around, smiled with deep dimples: "Mr. Ning is here."

…..

…

"The weather is getting hotter and hotter. Your Majesty sent the prince summer clothes and his favorite food at home."

Ning Kun took out a few lists and read them long and hard.

"Also, the prince likes to swim. The prince wants to dig a lake in the post house and demolish the row of houses behind it. The space is barely enough."

Xiao Xun reached out and took a few orders, glanced at them and threw them on the table.

"Mr. Ning," he said, "will everything go well after you go back?"

Ning Kun nodded: "Zhongshan County is doing better than before. We have lost face, and the prince has no scruples. This spring, we will change the farmland, and we can recruit new recruits in the winter. Also, we will mint money in the spring of next year-"

Tian, ​​Ding, and Qian are independent, which means that Zhongshan Wangjun is no longer under the control of the court.

Xiao Xun smiled slightly and asked: "Where are you, sir? Is everything going well?"

Ning Kun knew what he meant and nodded with some gratitude: "The prince sent me back. The prince showed pity to me and trusted me more. Now I am responsible for the new affairs of the county."

Xiao Xun nodded and said: "I have said that Mr. Ning's great talents can only be used by following his father."

Ning Kun saluted: "Thank you very much, Your Majesty. I am the prince giving this gift to Your Majesty."

He should have stayed here to accompany and serve the prince like Tieying.

"You're welcome." Xiao Xun said, looking at Ning Kun, "So, have you heard what I asked you to ask about?"

Ning Kun, who was giving the salute, paused slightly.
