Chapter 97
The next day it was still drizzling.
Wen Lianglu wore a straw hat and rode a horse to Yan's residence early in the morning. Wen Erdan was also traveling with him. However, the carriage that Wen Erdan was riding in carried memorials and documents submitted by five places in Wuheng Mountain. The carriage was slower and it was particularly muddy and difficult when going up the mountain.
When they arrived at Yan's house, Yan's housekeeper invited the two adults in first.
"Your Highness said it's in the main courtyard, which is the residence of our second master." The butler led the way.
Xuanyi Fu went to bed late and got up early yesterday. It would be difficult for him to stay in bed if he had something important on his mind. Yan Huaijin knew this very well. When Xuanyi Fu was regent, His Majesty Uncle Xu had just left for a few days, and Xuanyi Fu did not sleep well at night and often woke up.
Because of what happened in the court, and also because of the nightmare that Xuanfu had.
Many people would say while eating: I will only be regent for a period of time, I won’t mess up the country, right?
The people won’t be forced to become homeless and hungry because of me, right?
Xuan Duofu was actually very responsible, and if it was his responsibility, he would do his best to do it. Yan Huaijin knew Xuan Duofu very well, so before dawn the next day, Xuan Duofu's bedroom door opened, and Yan Huaijin had already dressed and was copying scriptures in the living room.
The two looked at each other.
Yan Huaijin finished writing the last stroke, put down his pen, and said, "Just right."
"What's just right?" He smiled. "When did you get up? You copied the scriptures when it was still dark? Do you still want your eyes?"
Yan Huaijin admitted his mistake obediently and looked at Xuanfu.
Xuanyu Fu: ...Yan Jinjin, you are playing the green tea trick on me now! No, it seems to be Bai Lian, let me take a look.
“In the future, you don’t have to finish copying in one go during the day. There will always be time.” Xuanyu Fuxian said.
Yan Huaijin smiled and said, "I see. I will listen to you. You are right."
"...Let's go over and have breakfast." Xuanyu Fu told Yan Huaijin last night that if he had any official business in the future, he could use Master Yan's courtyard to do his work - the place was bigger and empty, making it more convenient for officials to come and go and discuss government affairs.
There are too many traces of his presence and life in this house.
Yan Huaijin packed up the copied Taoist scriptures and would burn them when he returned later. Xuanyifu waited for a while, and then the two of them set out. They both held umbrellas and walked along the stone road. Even so, their clothes, shoes and socks were still wet with rain.
"When will the weather clear up? It's really inconvenient when it rains."
Yan Huaijin said: "In previous years, there was plenty of rain in the second half of April, and the rice fields grew well afterwards."
When Xuanfu heard this, he immediately changed his mind and said, "Then our travel will only be inconvenient for half a month. The crops are more important."
"It won't rain heavily in April." Yan Huaijin looked at Xuanyifu, "When you're done, do you want to listen to me play the zither? Let's make tea and enjoy the rain together."
Xuanyuefu's eyes lit up, "You can also play the piano?" Why haven't I seen Yan Jinjin play it before?
Yan Huaijin said: "I learned it when I had nothing to do in the past."
"Okay." Xuanyufu agreed immediately.
It is true that rain is good for crops, but it is also true that rain makes traveling inconvenient and annoying. Now Yan Huaijin invites many people to enjoy the rain, drink tea and play the piano, hoping to replace the irritability of rainy days with some good memories.
When the two of them arrived at the main courtyard, they had breakfast first. Halfway through their breakfast, Wen Lianglu and Wen Erdan arrived one after another. Xuanyuefu saw that Wen Lianglu was half wet and his trouser legs were muddy, so he said, "Go and clean up first. You and Wen Erdan can come after you have breakfast. There's no rush."
He was very worried and anxious last night, and he hurriedly sent someone to pass on the message - he went down the mountain late at night to tell Wen Lianglu and the others the news, and the two of them were frightened and worried.
With the comfort of Yan Jinjin, and most importantly, the presence of his father the Emperor, the prince calmed down a lot.
However, the documents sent by the five prefectures will be left here for now.
After Xuan Duofu finished eating, he wiped his hands and went to look at the memorials. He couldn't do it all by himself, so he asked Yan Huaijin to help him. Yan Huaijin didn't refuse and said something like "I'm just a commoner and can't touch official business." He said, "Then let's look at the Daxi Prefecture's first."
"You're right." Xuanyunfu nodded. "I'll look at the memorials, and you look after the official business."
Roar, roar, roar, he looks more relaxed.
Yan Huaijin accepted all the information. What Lord Yan handed over was the annual grain output and grain tax income of the people in Daxi Prefecture four years after the land reform. In the first year of the land reform, the emperor exempted more than half of the grain taxes. The total grain income of the local people on the report was considerable. After deducting the grain taxes paid, there was definitely a surplus of grain.
When he told this, Xuan Duofu was really happy, his eyes lit up. Yan Huaijin continued, "Your Majesty's decree is very good."
"Of course! My father and the emperor have been busy for a long time and have been blamed for this." Xuanyu Fu was very happy to hear the news, because Wang Yuansun was also badly criticized for this.
In the south, some people did not dare to openly curse their father, the emperor, so they cursed and cursed Wang Yuansun, because Wang Yuansun was so cruel and deadly in this regard.
Xuan Fu put the memorial in his hand on the table without reading it, saying: "There is no government affairs in the memorial, it is just praising my father and myself, with some words of praise and welcome."
"Do you have any information about the general situation of Haihua's family?"
Yan Huaijin shook his head, "No."
It seems that it was not that Wen Liangru and Wen Erdan were careless, but that the local officials deliberately concealed the matter, or that the local officials were simply unaware of the situation.
Soon Wen Lianglu and Wen Erdan came forward, and the two of them cleaned up the mess. They were no longer as flustered and anxious as before, and Xuanyifu did not exchange pleasantries. He did not need to exchange pleasantries with his own people, so he went straight to the point and talked about Haihua's family.
"There are two sides now. One is that Yan He is unaware of the situation. He is a local official, but he failed to notice the suffering of the people and failed to supervise and perform his duties. The other is that Yan He knew about it but did not report it and wanted to conceal it." Wen Lianglu quickly reacted and said, "Your Highness, I have read the official documents on the performance of Daxi Prefecture over the past four years. According to Yan He, the local grain tax and people's harvests have been steadily increasing over the past four years."
So Wen Liangru really didn’t notice the problem.
Yan Huaijin said at this time: "In the past four years, Daxi Prefecture has had good weather and good harvests. My second sister has figured out a good rice seed. Four years have passed. In theory, all places suitable for growing rice seeds have been distributed."
Wen Liangluo immediately understood that there was something fishy going on. He was just unfamiliar with farming and had forgotten about it. "If everything goes well, the grain tax revenue should have increased significantly."
"Yes." Yan Huaijin nodded.
Wen Erdan recorded it all.
Xuanyuefu said, "Ask Yanhe to come. As for the other four prefectures—has anyone come? I remember you said before that the four adults have all arrived in Daxi Prefecture?"
"When your highness's carriage just arrived, the magistrates of the prefectures and counties had all arrived on the fourth day of March, but your highness declined them all, and now they have all gone back." Wen Lianglu said.
Xuanyu Fu: "Then don't call them yet, and finish looking at the government affairs of the other four prefectures."
"Yes." Wen Liangluo packed all his things for today.
So what should be spread should be spread.
Just after noon, Lord Yan Heyan arrived at the main courtyard. It had been raining all morning, but it stopped at noon and the sun came out, but the road was still muddy. Lord Yan was not wet with rain, but his feet were covered with mud.
Xuanyifu was no longer as gentle towards Yanhe as he was when they first met.
Yan He could sense it, and knelt down in fear to pay his respects. Xuan Fu did not call him up, but asked, "Have the people in Daxi Prefecture encountered any problems or difficulties since the land reform?"
"And--" Yan He said a word, and then he felt the intimidation coming from above his head, and suddenly became silent. He thought carefully and mentioned some small issues.
Xuanyi Fu had managed to get the East Palace team to work very well with him. They spoke their minds and solved problems in a down-to-earth manner. But now that he has become a local official, he realized how annoying all these nonsense were.
He talked about a lot of ramblings, seemingly talking about small problems faced by the people during the land reform, but in fact he was just flattering the emperor. He also claimed that the emperor's loyalty was evident to all, and he had done a lot of good things for him.
"Do you think I'm a fool?" Xuanyunfu asked with a cold face.
Yan He raised his head innocently, then suddenly bowed his head and kowtowed, "I don't know what your Highness is talking about, but every word I said is true. I have been working diligently since I arrived in Daxi Prefecture—"
"Enough, shut up." Xuan Fu didn't want to hear about the loyalty. Since he was young, he didn't like to hear his ministers nagging and using the saying "even if I have no merit, I have worked hard" to put him on the spot. He said that you were wrong in this matter, and the old minister said that I had done a lot of good things and the right things in the past, and I worked very hard, so I would never mention this wrong thing.
Mistakes are not a big deal, just correct them, and he will naturally deal with it at his discretion - give a chance based on your hard work, but if you don't even want to correct your mistakes and still bring up your hard work, then don't blame him for not looking at anything!
"Wang Yuansun——" Many people shouted.
Just a name, Xuan Duofu saw Yan He's body suddenly go limp, he leaned forward, began to pull at the hem of his robe, and cried for mercy, with snot and tears all over his face, and cried again and again: "Your Highness, Your Highness, I was wrong, if you have anything to say, just tell me to punish you, my whole family, please let me go..."
Many blessings: ...
Wang Yuansun came in: ...
The two looked at each other.
"I'll give you another chance. Don't talk nonsense and just answer the questions directly." After Xuanyu Fu said this, he looked at Wang Yuansun, meaning that Wang Yuansun should not leave and should just stand here.
Wang Yuansun moved the knife on his back into his arms and stood aside.
After that, the conversation went smoothly. No matter what Fu asked, Yan He initially answered directly, but after all, he had been in office for a long time, and from time to time, some of his bad habits of being an official would come back. Wang Yuansun would touch his knife and make some noises, and then Lord Yan He would be honest and dare not use the same old tricks again.
Yan He knew about the fact that the people who were given land sold their land for gambling, but he was innocent. The other party wanted to gamble and sell it, and there was the other party's handprint on the deed. How could he manage it? He managed one at first, but he couldn't manage more. It was a matter of willing to fight and willing to suffer.
"You are an official with power in your hands, while the common people only have land. You have studied and become an official, and you have seen what people have experienced. Having lived for so long, I don't believe that you have the same experience as the common people who have been farming for their whole lives. You are their parent official, but now you are still saying that you can't control them."
"If you can't manage it, then find someone who can."
Even now, he still wants to let him get away with it by pushing the blame on others and getting away with it cleanly.
Do you really think that Prince Duofu is a vegetarian?
Xuanyu Fu said, "Wen Lianglu, go find out more about Daxi Prefecture. Yanhe should cooperate with you. If you still act like you did just now, I will punish you with thirty strokes of the cane the first time and sixty strokes the second time. If you kill me, I will take the blame."
"Your Highness!" Yan He still begged for mercy.
Wang Yuansun finally raised his hand and slapped the handle of the knife on the back of Lord Yan's neck, knocking him unconscious. He said, "He didn't kill me. I think your highness has finished asking questions, so it's too noisy to stay here."
"...Well done. You can assign some people to Wen Lianglu, just a hundred or so will be enough." Xuanyu Fu said.
Wen Lianglu took over temporarily, which was not his job, but he did not back down at all and accepted it directly. In the past few years, when His Highness got older, His Majesty actually valued His Highness very much and gave some errands to His Highness. In the entire Eastern Palace, not to mention the other errands taken by the Crown Prince and the guests, even the civil servants such as Wen Erdan and He Tong had to ride horses to the local areas to "deal with lawsuits" when they were busy.
"Wen Erdan, if the other four prefectures hear about this and someone comes to see me, bring them here directly."
"yes."
After they were done, everyone went back to their business. Xuanyunfu suddenly realized that he was hungry.
"I asked the kitchen to prepare dinner." Yan Huaijin said, "It's ready to go now."
Xuanyu Fu nodded, but before he could say anything, Yan Jinjin looked at him very passionately and said, "Xu Xuanyu Fu, you are getting more and more powerful now."
I couldn't hold it back, I couldn't hold back my happiness at all! Manyu Fu said happily, "Are you fascinated by my figure?"
"Yes. Your Highness the Crown Prince is mighty and wise." Yan Huaijin praised sincerely.
Many blessings can jump up. He is the kind of person who doesn't like to hear flattery. But if his good friends and relatives truly think that he is powerful and smart, then it's different. He is especially proud!
"Yan Jinjin, this is what we call it. It's called seeing a man with new eyes after three days of separation. We've been apart for four years. In places where you can't see me, I've secretly become very powerful." After boasting about himself, Xuan Fu didn't forget to praise his little deskmate. He raised his hand and patted his shoulder, saying, "You look so radiant even though I haven't seen you for four years."
Yan Huaijin really couldn't help it, his eyes were full of smiles, he bowed gracefully and said, "Yan Jinjin thanks your highness for the compliment."
"You're welcome! We're friends." Xuanyuefu happily pulled Yan Jinjin's wrist, "Stop acting, let's go eat~"
Happily dragging the handsome guy to eat.
Xuan Duofu was coaxed by Yan Huaijin into eating three bowls of rice. He ate all of his meat dishes and didn't waste much. Yan Huaijin ate vegetarian food as usual and also ate two bowls. Xuan Duofu saw that he didn't persuade him much. In the past, his little classmate ate less vegetarian food, so he slowly increased his meal.
When it comes to eating, he's a professional - an expert!
After lunch, I took a short nap. The sky was clear in the afternoon. Yan Jinjin had finished burning the sutras. Cheng Baoning came to bring me some cucumbers, small pieces of cucumbers that had just ripened. I washed them with Fuqing water and put them in my mouth. They were very delicious, with a strong cucumber flavor.
Cheng Baoning circled around His Highness, and was then detained by his uncle to test his writing.
Manyufu: Hahahahahahaha.
Then he ran over to make trouble and said, "Master Yan Jinjin is so serious."
Cheng Baoning, however, was in awe of his uncle the teacher, and now he was even more in awe of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, because His Royal Highness was not afraid of his uncle at all. His uncle did not like to be disturbed when he was studying, but His Royal Highness would call his uncle out to play.
Yan Huaijin said to Baoning, "You have fallen behind in your studies. You didn't like coming to my place before because you wanted to be lazy. You will go back to Zongshan Mansion with your parents at the end of the month. When your teacher asks you about your essay, he will definitely beat you."
Now Cheng Baoning was really scared.
"Uncle, I know I was wrong. I will study hard when I go back and will not dare to be lazy anymore." Cheng Baoning said obediently. He did not dare to stay any longer and did not forget to salute the prince before leaving.
Manyu waved goodbye: Bye, bye.
I thought to myself, luckily I’m grown up and don’t have to go to school anymore!
"Yan Jinjin, I thought you called Baoning just now because you were jealous, but it turns out you really are thinking about him. Is his teacher very powerful? I saw that he was so scared that his face turned pale." Xuanyuefu said.
Yan Huaijin said: "How could I be jealous of a child?"
Manyu Fu said, "I'm just being sentimental," and then he heard Yan Jinjin say, "But I am a little unhappy that he is pestering you."
"..." Yan Jinjin, listen to whether what you said makes sense!
Yan Huaijin smiled and explained, "Being rational is one thing. He is still young, and you won't have any other thoughts about him. But I still like the two of us to play together alone."
"And his master is very strict. When we were in Chongming Hall before, Master Hu didn't hit you on the palm of your hand—"
Xuan Fu added: "Before I became the crown prince, I was beaten with a slap on the palm of my hand."
Lao Hu is really strict.
"Is Baoning's master stricter than Master Hu?" Xuan Fu asked carefully. He already had the answer in his mind and immediately showed him double the love and care for Cheng Baoning.
Yan Huaijin said: "Baoning's master is a famous master. My brother-in-law spent a lot of money and used his connections to invite him. The master tested Baoning and felt that Baoning had some talent before agreeing to accept Baoning as his apprentice. If Baoning slacks off, a slap on the palm of his hand will be a minor punishment."
"What about the great precepts?" Xuanyuefu was afraid.
Yan Huaijin: "I haven't had any major vows yet."
Xuanyuefu was a little disappointed when he didn't hear the answer. He looked at Yan Huaijin. Yan Huaijin looked at Xuanyuefu in silence and with amusement. Xuanyuefu said sorry: "I don't want to learn anymore. I'm a little mean now. I don't really want Baoning to get beaten."
"I know you have a good heart and you are just trying to please me." Yan Huaijin understood.
Xuanyu Fu nodded, and then realized, "What I was thinking just now is written on my face again?" How come Yan Jinjin was so accurate in his prediction that he had to explain first.
Yan Huaijin nodded, "You and I have a tacit understanding."
"Hehe, that's true."
After that, in the first half of April, it really rained from time to time, but it never rained all day. Sometimes in the morning and sometimes in the afternoon, it was a drizzle, and the ground was wet. Xuan Fu and Yan Huaijin would make tea and enjoy the rain in their spare time.
It was the first time for Xuan Duofu to see Yan Jinjin playing the piano. Who could understand? ! !
Even though he was a person who only cared about art, he could still feel that the sound of the piano was beautiful and the scenery outside the window was wonderful, because it was raining and the mountains were shrouded in mist. Yan Jinjin, wearing a crescent-shaped white robe with wide sleeves, played the piano with her brows lowered. She was really beautiful like a painting.
Not like a real person.
When the song ended, Manyuyifu was there, clapping and saying, "Good, good, good." Whether it was the song that was good or the person who was beautiful, only the two of them knew.
Because it was written on many people’s faces: What a beautiful Yan Jinjin.
Yan Huaijin thought: It turns out Xuanxuanfu likes it this way.
A few days later, the rain had just stopped. It rained for a while yesterday evening, and the sun came out this morning. Xuanyuefu heard from the housekeeper that it would be sunny soon, so Wen Erdan came to ask for a meeting, followed by three people.
The governor and county magistrate of Fushan Prefecture, and the county magistrate of Zongshan Prefecture.
Fushan Prefecture is equivalent to the city of Wuhengshan, and the political envoy is equivalent to the mayor.
It has been thirteen days since Yanhe was "captured" by him. The three of them are well-informed, especially Fushan Prefecture, which is six or seven days away from Daxi Prefecture.
Many people were met by Fu. The political envoy was about the same age as Yan He, an old man in his fifties. He looked tired from the journey, but his eyes were energetic. The two county magistrates were one younger and the other middle-aged man in his forties.
The three of them greeted each other.
Many people called out and asked why they came.
The government official's surname was Ma. Lord Ma spoke frankly, saying: "I heard that Yan He was arrested and the reason. In fact, three years ago, this situation occurred in all places in the five prefectures. Under my administration, I also issued orders, but they have not been changed and cannot be eradicated. There have even been deaths..."
The more you listen to Fu, the more excited you become.
"People died". Some civilians could not survive, and some small landlords in various places joined hands because of Ma's tough management. He used the ruffians who ran gambling houses as an example to scare the monkeys. They did not dare to rebel, but kept in touch with each other. It was hard to guard against the means of "setting traps" afterwards.
It's not just gambling, there are also sexual seduction, antique traps, fraud and other means.
Lord Ma adopted a combination of soft and hard tactics, and it worked. There were fewer examples like the one in Haihua Prefecture in Fushan Prefecture, but some of the other prefectures were too remote and still refused to change despite repeated warnings. After all, "money can move people's hearts", and the same goes for land.
At this point, Lord Ma changed the subject and pushed out the county magistrate under him. The magistrate of Zongshan Prefecture then made a plea to the prince, saying, "Take Zongshan Prefecture as an example. The family that occupied the most land was the Chen family. After the Chen family fell, the land was divided up. The people who got the land were the former tenants and those who moved there after hearing the news. The villagers were scattered and formed a new village. There was no clan with the same surname to stick together, so everyone was busy sweeping the snow in front of their own door..."
The magistrate of Zongshan Prefecture first banned gambling in the village, and then divided five villages into a li, and ten villages into a township, with li chiefs and township chiefs. Any villager found gambling was to be reported to the village chief. If the village chief protected the villager, the villager would report it to the li chief or township chief, and each villager would receive a reward of 100 coins.
This will kill the gambling habit.
But there are other scams. The magistrate of Zongshan Prefecture can only send yamen runners to patrol more often and keep an eye on them from time to time, which is very troublesome. In fact, the magistrate of Zongshan Prefecture is also overwhelmed by this. Seeing that the prince came here and asked for an audience last month, he also wanted to ask for help.
"...You did a good job. You guys talked a lot, but are there any difficult people?" Xuanyu Fu asked.
The three of them looked at each other. Lord Ma was not in a position to speak. The county magistrate of Fushan Prefecture stepped forward first, took out a memorial from his bosom and handed it to him respectfully, saying, "Your Highness, this is a small landowner in Wufu who is stubborn and unyielding. Also, there is a big family in our Fushan Prefecture, which is naturally not as big as the aristocratic family. He said that his wife's uncle's cousin is Lord Mei in the court."
"Which Lord Mei?" Xuan Fu took the letter and took a look. It was all names, so he had to verify the situation. He then looked at Lord Ma and said, "You have already reported it to me. Are you afraid that Lord Mei will find out and punish you?"
Lord Ma was immediately shocked and said respectfully, "It is Lord Mei Yuanmei, the Minister of Revenue."
"What a high-ranking official." Xuan Fu sighed, but his tone was not sarcastic. He said to Lord Ma, "You are in charge of five prefectures. You are capable and sympathetic to the people. You should investigate what needs to be investigated. If there is solid evidence, arrest the person. The only thing is that you cannot wrongly arrest or wrongly accuse someone. Since you have brought the case to me and want me to make the decision for you, then don't be afraid to back down at the last minute and arrest a scapegoat to end it all."
This kind of thing has happened before.
His father told him everything, including the person who made the initial complaint and abused his power for personal gain. If the other party is wrong and you want to get to the top, then be bold. It's not a bad thing to have means and ambitions. As long as you can do practical and good things, your political achievements will not be bad. But at the critical moment, he felt that the matter was getting bigger and bigger and he got scared, so he caught a "little devil" to take the blame, hoping to keep the world peaceful.
This is simply making fun of his father.
Lord Ma carefully watched His Highness's expression and immediately understood that His Highness wanted him to go in when he should and not shrink back out of fear - if so, the case would be settled and the court would have to rely on the Crown Prince.
"Yes, I understand."
Xuan Fu: "Whether Lord Mei knows about this or not, I will write a memorial to ask the Emperor to find out. You should deal with the people below first."
"Yes." This time Lord Ma's voice was more confident.
Many blessings:?
What? You have the guts to do this when I bring up the emperor! But he changed his mind and thought, hey, he has to bring up the emperor as a backer, so Lord Ma is right to think so.
It’s better to have a father. A son with two dear fathers is a big treasure!
After the discussion, Manager Wang sent all the adults away.
Xuanyi Fu sat down and began to write a letter home, reporting to his two fathers about his situation outside. Then he thought, "It would be a shame to only write one letter to send them back after such a long journey." So Xuanyi Fu wrote down all the big and small things that had happened since he came to the south!
His wrist felt sore from writing, and there were a few typos, but in the end he didn't care. His two fathers would definitely not bother with an illiterate man like him.
"I want to send a letter to Shengdu. Yan Jinjin, do you have a letter for Tutor Yan? Once it is sent back, you won't need to use your pocket money to pay for the trip this time." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really meticulous.
Yan Huaijin agreed and wrote a letter to his uncle and aunt.
The two of them wrote until it was dark and evening. Xu Duofu was hungry, so he put away his pen, stretched his wrist, and said, "It's almost done. I have written everything that needs to be written. I can send it back now."
Yan Huaijin took a look and saw that Xuan Duofu's desk was full of letter papers. After writing, he put them aside to let the ink dry. Now Xuan Duofu had collected them. The stack was so thick that the letter box could hardly be closed. He couldn't help but smile.
"Yan Jinjin, what are you laughing at?"
"I laugh at your sincerity and feel good about it." Yan Huaijin explained, "If His Majesty and Uncle Xu received your letter, they would definitely be very happy."
Xuan Fu smiled and said, "Of course, I can imagine that. My fathers must be very happy. They must be missing me so much! I'll write more to ease their pain of missing me."
Yan Huaijin couldn't help but laugh out loud this time.
How could Xuanduofu be so cute, as cute as ever and getting cuter and cuter.
This large box of letters arrived before His Majesty and the Empress at Taiji Palace in late April. It was first placed in front of His Majesty's desk in Xuanzheng Hall. Emperor Ningwu learned that it was a family letter from the Crown Prince, and when he opened it, he found that there were so many sheets of letter paper that they were overflowing.
Emperor Ningwu closed the lid expressionlessly.
"Let's watch it together when the Queen comes back."
He still has endless memorials to review.
In the evening, the empress knew that the prince had sent a letter home, so she finished her work early and returned to the palace. Emperor Ningwu had just finished reviewing memorials, and the couple sat on the soft couch in the warm room and began to unpack the box and read the letter.
The letter paper was at least twenty or thirty pages long.
Xu Xiaoman: ...
Holding the letter, he laughed so hard that he broke down.
"Duoduo must have missed both of us, kid."
Zhong Yun raised his wrist and lifted his sleeve: "Let me see what nonsense our Crown Prince said again."
It's really a basket of things as the saying goes.
The author has something to say:
Bad news: His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wrote in the letter that Yan Jinjin had grown into a handsome man at the age of eighteen.
Good news: Because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wrote about a lot of trivial things, even Cheng Baoning was mentioned, the Emperor and Empress read them and felt dizzy and laughed, and some clues about the Crown Prince and classmate Yan's premature love were also revealed.
