On the official road, the team returning to Beijing was as mighty as a long dragon, with great momentum.

The grandest main ship was divided into four floors, with the main hall, inner hall, east and west halls and corridors on the upper floor; it was decorated with red powder, gold, jade, pearls and jade, and hung with tassels, feathers and red silk nets, showing its luxury.

"What do Feng, Hua, Liu, and Su mean?"

Helian Yu sat cross-legged on the couch, holding a book in his hand, his eyes wandering on the faces of Chang Zuo, Yingyue and Caiyun.

"The quiz begins!"

As soon as the words fell.

Chang Zuo immediately said: "If the superiors do what the subordinates do, it will be a trend!"

Yingyue answered quickly: "The gradual immersion of fumigation is called transformation! Degradation——"

"The decadence of the people is called the flow! The stability of the people is called the customs!" Caiyun answered.

Helian Yu put down the book and clapped excitedly: "Smart! Smart! So smart! It's such a loss to the court that he couldn't take the imperial examination!"

"Helian Yu."

Helian Chi walked into her room with a gloomy face, and as soon as he entered the door he heard her loud "praise".

"Didn't the Imperial Master ask you to memorize the book? What are you doing here?"

Helian Chi approached, Yingyue and Caiyun took two steps back and bowed.

Helian Yu picked up the book and pretended to take a look at it, then looked at Helian Chi: "Exchanging our learning experiences will help consolidate our memory! Fourth brother can understand, right?"

"Tsk." Helian Chi pulled the book from her hand, glanced at it, and curved his lips. "What do Feng, Hua, Liu, and Su mean? Xiao Yu'er just consolidated it, tell me."

Helian Yu cleared his throat, glanced at the three people and winked.

The three of them lip-synced to her wordlessly.

Helian Yu stared at the three people's mouth shapes and answered with a stiff face: "Frost, snow and hail are called wind..."

Helian Chi: "..."

Three people: ??? Helian Chi closed the book silently: "Yingyue Caiyun, go downstairs and bring a few plates of tea cakes and nut soup."

Helian Yu climbed up and stood on the soft couch, his eyes as bright as the snow at night, "Fourth brother, you are so kind~"

"It's too early to talk." Helian Chi gently stroked her hair, revealing a rare gentle smile, "Fourth Brother didn't want you to eat. Yingyue Caiyun and Changzuo both answered the questions just now, so they deserve some rewards, right?"

Helian Yu weakly retorted: "I taught you."

Helian Chi's forehead throbbed, and he said gently: "That's great, you teach them to recite, and you watch them eat, how nice."

Helian Yu: "..."

Seeing Yingyue Caiyun hadn't moved yet, Helian Chi glanced over and said, "Are you still not leaving? Are you waiting for me to bring it to you personally?"

Yingyue Caiyun did not dare to delay, bowed apologetically to Helian Yu, and hurried downstairs.

The two of them came up with cakes and nut soup, and Xin Ying also came up with them.

Xin Ying bowed respectfully to Helian Chi, and then handed a thin book to Helian Yu: "Young Master, I have been asked to find ten errors in the account book and hand it in to your desk before midnight tonight."

Helian Yu blinked, quickly ran into Helian Chi's arms, closed his eyes, and coughed weakly: "I, I'm weak... weak..."

Helian Chi took a deep breath. When Anle and Yongle were young, they were not like her!

It's really a natural and exquisite mischievousness!

Xin Ying put the account book on the low table and said in a low and cold voice: "Your Highness, Xin Ying is good at playing the piano and dancing. If you are bored while checking the accounts, Xin Ying can accompany you."

Helian Yu's eyelids trembled, and he pretended to open his eyes slowly, saying in an awkward tone: "Isn't this bad?"

Helian Chi stared at her in the dark, but he couldn't see what was wrong with her!

She didn't see the princess's dignity, but she managed to grasp some of the playboy's unique skills!

I couldn't bear to beat him, and I couldn't bear to scold him! He was so angry that his head was buzzing, which was more uncomfortable than poking a hornet's nest.

Xin Ying curved her lips and said, "Xin Ying is honored."

Helian Yu immediately jumped up from Helian Chi's arms, fierce and vigorous: "Let's go! Let's settle the score!"

Helian Chi grabbed her collar from behind and pulled her into his arms again: "Wait until you finish watching Yingyue and the others eat, then it won't be too late to go."

Helian Yu: "..."

There were three plates of pastries and three bowls of nut soup on the emerald green tablecloth. The colors were elegant and the sweetness slowly spread, making people salivate and their stomachs growl.

"Fourth brother! You are bad!"

"Um."

Helian Chi was in a good mood.

In the end, Helian Yu took the account book, angrily stepped on Helian Chi, and ran away quickly.

After Helian Yu left, Yingyue hurriedly followed him, and Caiyun stayed behind to deal with the cold dishes.

"Caiyun, you go out and take care of Zhaoyang, and let Zhuo Liu pack these things." Helian Chi ordered.

Caiyun bowed and saluted, then slowly retreated.

Only Chang Zuo and Helian Chi were left in the room.

"Your Highness, do you have anything to ask?"

"Yes." Helian Chi walked to the window and looked at the rolling waves, white and rapid, chasing and disappearing non-stop, his mind suddenly cleared, "The matter of the Enke was dealt with hastily, and the Zhou family was also detained and brought to the capital to await their fate, but--"

"Why did the Zhou family want to kill Pu Hongwen?"

Chang Zuo remained silent and listened quietly to Helian Chi's words.

"If you say that they killed the person who knew the truth, it would be unnecessary. Pu Hongwen had no intention of betraying. It is too abrupt for the Zhou family to kill him."

"so--"

Helian Chi turned around and stared at Chang Zuo: "Master Chang Zuo did it?"

Chang Zuomian remained calm and said, "Yes."

"That makes sense." Helian Chi turned around again and looked out the window, "What a good plan."

"Zhou Boyi has been imprisoned by Prince Cen and wants to meet Lord Chang Zuo. What do you think?" Helian Chi said.

Chang Zuo didn't know Zhou Boyi very well: "No, the young master didn't give any instructions."

"Lord Chang Zuo is loyal."

"Thank you." Chang Zuo paused, "Sir, you have never praised me like this before."

Helian Chi was silent, and suddenly he became interested. "What does the Imperial Master usually praise you for?"

Chang Zuo groaned: "Young Master praised me for my sharp eyes and nimble hands and feet."

"That's not the way the Imperial Master speaks."

"The young master has the habit of hiding banknotes everywhere. My lady and I used to sneak through them, and the young master praised me like this."

Helian Chi: "..."

He has such a good attitude that he can even take sarcasm as a compliment.

Within the red walls of the capital, beneath the golden tiles, palaces stand one after another, solemn and majestic.

Although Fengyang Pavilion has lost its owner, it still seems as glorious as before.

"Sister Xingchun! Chang'an is back! He just received a reward from His Majesty and received silver for the game!"

Ci Dong trotted into Fengyang Pavilion and happily announced the good news.

Xingchun's injury has healed greatly with the treatment of various precious medicinal herbs. He is now directing the decoration of the main hall of Fengyang Pavilion to add some spring atmosphere.

Hearing Ci Dong's voice, she hurried over and held her hand, her eyes full of joy: "Really?"

"Really!" Ci Dong smiled so hard that his eyes could hardly open, his voice as sweet as nectar, "Really! His Majesty is pleased and has given Chang An a lot of cloth, spices, and tea! The eunuchs are sending them over! I have been asking around outside for a long time just now!"

"Where's Chang'an? He hasn't come back yet?" Xingchun leaned out the door.

"I went to the Jingshifang. Maybe it was about the imperial edict. I'm not sure." Cidong didn't care too much. He just smiled and held Xingchun's hand. "Sister Xingchun, we should celebrate, right?"

"That's right. His Highness will be returning to the capital in a few days. It can be said to be a double happiness!" Xingchun smiled and said, "I'll go tell Aunt Yu Shi. She will definitely be happy!"

"Aunt Yu Shi never smiles usually, but this time she will be so happy!" Ci Dong hurriedly urged Xing Chun, "Go quickly!"

Xingchun hurried to find Yu Shi, knocked on the door and entered her room. Seeing her embroidering, she stepped forward with a smile and bowed, taking the embroidery from her hand: "Aunt, I have good news to tell you. Chang'an returned to the palace and was rewarded by His Majesty. He was given silver to set up a business, and was also given a lot of silk, satin and tea."

Yu Shi was stunned for a moment, the corners of his mouth gradually rose, a layer of joy covered his eyes, and he stood up quickly: "It is indeed good news!"
