His Royal Highness Duan Wang peeked at me in the study again

Chapter 7

He just thought it was a dream.

But he knew that without knowing when it started, he began to care about Su Fufu in his heart.

No matter how much he didn't want to admit it, he couldn't deceive himself by caring about her time and time again.

But she is the sweetheart of the fifth brother.

He shouldn't have any thoughts about her.

Zhao Yuge felt bored again, so he simply got up.

"Go to the Hall of Calligraphy."

The little eunuch responded, and followed him with the lantern in hand.

On the second floor of the Hall of Calligraphy, the little eunuch lit the lamp and was sent outside by him.

Zhao Yuge stared at the green screen window for a long time, ignoring any mosquitoes, and pushed it away when he reached the window.

There was a cool breeze, and it had just started to drizzle outside the house.

The moon is bright.

Zhao Yuge looked at the square window through the vertical rain curtain in front of him.

His messy heart was all quiet.

Actually feel sleepy.

He moved the stool and simply lay down on the window sill, watching the window with his eyelids getting heavier and heavier, and fell asleep unknowingly.

It rained patter all night outside.

It was dawn and the rain stopped. Zhao Yuge put on a black cloak over his round collar robe and left the mansion, heading for a mansion in Wushan on the outskirts of the city.

After getting out of the carriage, his black boots hurriedly stepped on the bluestone slabs under the house that had just been washed clean by the rain, and walked step by step through the winding bamboo forest before arriving at the house on the mountain.

He knocked on the door, and the plainclothes guard inside opened the door, and the servant hurriedly went around to meet him and went to the house.

This is Lin Lixing's mansion for self-cultivation.

Now it is the place where they communicate with the officials of the DPRK and China.

In a hall deep in the mansion, the servant in front of the door pushed open the half bamboo curtain hanging from the door to the left and right, and invited Zhao Yuge to enter.

It was gloomy outside, and there was some chaos inside.

When Zhao Yuge stepped into the hall, he saw Lin Lixing, the official uncle of the Imperial Academy offering wine, and He Min, a scholar of the Imperial Academy, playing chess.

After Zhao Yuge took off his cloak and handed it to the servant, he didn't speak, but sat down quietly in front of the tea table.

As soon as the servant served the tea, the two chess players got up and heard Lin Lixing say, "Master He has won my three eyes again."

The gentle He Min only said, "Ashamed and ashamed."

The two sat down at the tea table, Zhao Yuge poured tea for the two of them, and said, "Master He, but you have already recommended Yang Shan? What does the emperor say?"

He Min lightly nodded, "Well, I already chatted with the emperor yesterday when I was playing chess with the emperor. The emperor also praised Yang Shan as much as he praised Li Zhuo, and the words... were full of politeness. From this, it can be seen that the emperor already has a lot of respect in his heart." The place belongs."

Lin Lixing, Zhao Yuge's uncle, was shocked.

He Min continued: "Furthermore, yesterday the emperor's chess game was quite different from usual, Zizi was caught by surprise. This reflects the emperor's state of mind, this time he will not be as usual in the household department, and use the one we recommended. People, he wants to take a slant, most of them are people who we have never noticed, or even have never served in the household department."

"What did the emperor reveal?"

"Not a single word was missed."

The three drank a few more sips of tea, and He Min slowly got up, and said again in a deep voice: "The road is long and long, my lord, Lord Lin, don't worry."

Zhao Yuge got up first and said politely: "Then we can only wait for the decision in two days when we go to court, thank you, Mr. He."

After Lin Li went, he got up and sent him to the door, and the servant led He Min to the west gate.

The two turned around, the door inside the hall was pushed open, and Xi Yuan, who was dormant in the dark and working for Zhao Yuge, came out.

"My lord, Lord Lin, the people around the Fourth Prince went to Jiao Yang last night."

"Jiao Yang?"

The two looked at each other, and Lin Lixing said clearly: "Could it be that the fourth prince wants to..."

Zhao Yuge understood what his uncle meant, and replied: "The second prince is surrounded by experts when he comes out of Beijing, and the fourth prince has such a little family background, I'm afraid the people he invites will not be able to reach him."

Zhao Yuge said as he took the cloak handed over by the servant.

Lin Lixing accompanied him out of the hall, and the two of them said as they walked, "I hope that he will make a better future, so that we can benefit from it. By the way... what's going on with that young lady of the Xu family?"

"This eldest lady is not an ordinary woman who only wants to marry a good family. She has some masculine ambitions, and what she wants is status and power. She is not someone I can marry with some romantic tricks... and these days she I am not in good health and did not go to the painting workshop."

"Well... I heard that the five princes lived in your house for the eldest lady of the Su family. How are the two going?"

Zhao Yuge paused, lowered his eyebrows and said, "It should be that a good thing is coming."

There was some joy in Lin Lixing's eyes, and he said: "Very good, very good, you have been close to the fifth prince since you were young, and you never thought that he can help you now."

Zhao Yuge only raised the corners of his lips slightly, and the two gradually drifted away in the dense mountain fog.

……

"It's almost done. There are only two plates of pastries, what's the difference between the ones you put around?"

In the Zhoushan Hall of Su Guogong's mansion, Chen Zhenzhen played with the two pastries she made attentively.

Su Fufu was eating the green fruit and saw it. She really didn't understand. How could Chen Zhenzhen, who was fighting with her all day long, change so much because of Mr. Xu?
Chen Zhenzhen said without raising her head, "When do you and the fifth prince plan to get married?"

Su Fufu looked at her suspiciously.

"My mother looks like her son-in-law to everyone now, why are you also messing around?"

Only then did Chen Zhenzhen stop, and said, "What do you mean? You don't like that Zhao Chengyan?"

Su Fufu turned to look at her again, "He is not only my relative but also my friend, of course I like him."

Chen Zhenzhen frowned and said, "I'm talking about the liking between a man and a woman. It's like I am to Mr. Xu..."

It's just that she hasn't finished talking.

The little maid outside said: "Miss, Mr. Xu is here."

Chen Zhenzhen hurriedly collected her expression, stood up and stroked her clothes, and walked up to her along the hair in front of her.

Su Fufu was stuffing a mouthful of fruit, and could only look at Xu Miao who entered the door and smiled forcefully.

Xu Miao must have felt depressed thinking about the matter of the horse. She wanted to say a few words of comfort today, but seeing that Chen Zhenzhen was here, she didn't mention it. She just wrote gently as usual: "Then let's draw leaves today."

In the quiet breeze in the hall, Xu Miao was serious, and said while painting: "The leaves of the painting must be painted with one touch, and the strokes are fast and skillful. If you stay too late, you will be stupid and lose your power."

Su Fu studied seriously. After Xu Miao explained what he learned today, Su Fufu followed his mother's order to make the two of them alone, and suddenly covered his stomach and frowned and said, "Master Xu, my stomach hurts." Chen Zhenzhen said: "Didn't you say that your bamboo painting is also a bit sloppy? You should hurry up and ask Mr. Xu for advice, I will come back as soon as I go."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Xu Miao to say a word, she rushed out of the hall like the wind.

Chen Zhenzhen came forward shyly, and whispered: "Then please trouble Mr. Xu."

Xu Miao smiled lightly, looked at Su Fufu's hasty figure outside the window, knowingly changed to a new rice paper and said: "Then Miss Chen, please draw a picture first, and then we will talk about it later."
