After offending all the princes

He walked in a hurry that night, and the sky was dark, so he couldn't see clearly. Only when he returned to Xuanhe's mansion today did he know what his palace has become.

In simple terms, the layout of the Prince's Mansion is three roads from east to west and five entrances to the courtyard. The west and north are connected to a large garden, and there is an artificial lake in the garden.

Xuanhe has no family, so there are guards and doormen living on the east road, Lord Xiaobai lives in it, and the west road is facing the garden, so there are some changes. Xuanhe's favorite water curtain cave in summer is the first place. Four entered the house and changed it.

But now the courtyard wall on East Road has been severely damaged, many places in the mansion have been burned, and many places that have not been burned have been blackened by smoke.

No matter how you look at it, you need to take a good rest.

It's better to take this opportunity to renovate. Xuanhe walks slowly around the palace, thinking about how to renovate.

When they turned to the artificial lake in the west, someone came to report to Shopkeeper Song and Shopkeeper Bao to see him.

Xuan He raised his eyebrows, they actually came together.

But yes, open a library together.

Even after working together for a long time, Song and Bao still don't get along very well, but at present, compared to these small conflicts, the business of the boss is more important.

The two of them had the same reaction when they saw Xuanhe, and they looked him up carefully. They were considered members of the palace, and they were businessmen with long sleeves and good at dancing, so they had some news channels. Although they were not in the imperial city, they probably knew about what happened the night before. what's up.

Now that I have seen my boss, I feel at ease.

"I was looking for you."

Buildings in many places in central Beijing are damaged, and the price of stone and wood will probably increase next, and there are probably not a few people who want to renovate like him. There are open-source groceries, goods circulate from north to south, and news is transmitted quickly. wood stone.

That's what business is all about. Both of them are veterans in the business field, so they don't need to say much, they know the news that Xuanhe has revealed.

Xuanhe was concerned about the library. Bao Kang looked at Song Qian and said, "Nine libraries have been built and thirteen are under construction."

Bao Kang was rarely uncomfortable, probably because he was not satisfied with the progress. Xuanhe actually seldom explained anything to them. This matter was obviously extremely important, but he failed to do it well.

Song Qian didn't have such a mentality. After all, he got closer to Xuanhe and explained: "This matter has a lot to do with it. Apart from the local gentlemen and gentry, they also need to go around the yamen."

Xuanhe is not in a hurry, as long as the emperor is in power, he will have no worries for a day, all this is done to ensure that there will be people in the court in the future, and there is no need to speak for him, if he has some kindness to him, his goal will be achieved.

If you can't find someone you like when you go to the Imperial Academy, you will never establish a good relationship with these future Hanlin scholars.

"It's okay, since I entrusted you two, you just let go and do it."

After getting his words, Bao Kang seemed relieved, and looked at Song Qian again, didn't he say that, why didn't he say it?

Just as he was thinking about it, Song Qian said, "My lord, these students seem to intend to set up a school."

"School?"

This is likely to be the embryonic form of a certain party in the future court. The original intention of these societies is for the righteousness of the world.

Xuanhe didn't care much, since it probably won't last long anyway, among other things, his library is scattered all over the place, mountains and rivers are far away. After rushing for the exam in Beijing, I found that the library was not only in the local area, so I didn't know what was going on.

"There is no need to intervene too much."

After talking about the business, the two executives still have to care about the boss's housing issue.

Song Qian said: "I have another house in the imperial city, if my master needs it..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Bao Kang, and their harmony only stayed in the working hours just now.

He said mockingly: "Old Song, I'm not talking about you, but what can you do in your small yard, how can you get used to living in your master's house?" There is a courtyard on the East Street, although there are only three entrances, it is spacious enough for the owner to live in comfortably."

Song Qian taunted him expressionlessly: "The land is cheap, so it's naturally spacious."

The land price on East Street is naturally not low, and the land price in the prosperous areas of the entire capital is not low. The most expensive one is naturally in the imperial city. No number of officials can afford a house.

Xuanhe couldn't laugh or cry, no matter what he did, he would never want to live in someone else's house.

"Okay, my palace is very big, it doesn't hurt to pack up a few rooms and live in it now."

After he said this, they didn't argue anymore, but one said that he wanted to find some high-quality wood and rockery for his master, and the other said that he had some friendship with the Suzhou garden master who came to Beijing, and wanted to invite someone to design a garden for the prince.

There is nothing to be polite about this matter, Xuanhe responded quickly: "Then I will have you two."

After all, this mansion is a palace, and it is not enough to have only one garden designer, he has to go to the Ministry of Industry to find someone.

Now when the Ministry of Industry is officially in a hurry, the towers, rivers, and the most important thing, the Qing Palace, are all waiting for repairs, and even the sixth child has been summoned.

It was long after noon when Xuanhe came, and he had just had lunch.

Now the second and third children are living in the palace, but the sixth child came to the Ministry of Industry the next day, so he really has no intention of participating.

If he was restrained by the eldest princess in the past, now it is his own idea to stay away from disputes.

"My palace was set on fire. How long will Sixth Brother take me in?"

Xuan He was just making a joke, but it scared Xie Qi out of his mind, and looked at him in horror, Xuan He was not happy, and smiled: "It seems that Brother Six doesn't welcome me."

Xie Qi adjusted his expression, and then said, "I think you should accept Xie Chuna if you want to live."

Xuan He wondered if he knew something, but his expression didn't look the same, he didn't bother to think about it, so he simply changed the subject: "Has the cement been made yet?"

"Cement? You mean mortar?"

"Ah."

Xie Qi said it twice again in a low voice, and then said: "You chose it? The name is quite vivid, but it's not very elegant."

Xuanhe looked at him curiously: "Do you still know Yaya?"

Xie Qi's unmarried wife admired this beautiful and talented cousin most, recited his casual poems by heart, and always said that Xuanhe was an unborn genius.

Compared with the name Zhaixinglou, it is obviously too down-to-earth.

But they all know that what is called is not important, what matters is who named it.

"It's all done now, why don't you go talk to Father?"

Xuanhe said casually: "You brought people to try it out in the Ministry of Industry, so naturally it will be reported to the Ministry of Industry."

"If you don't have your prescription, it's useless to try for a long time."

Xuanhe became impatient: "Why so much nonsense."

Xie Qi knew that he wanted to give himself a credit, so he said thank you awkwardly. He was forced by his fiancée to have a good relationship with his brother-in-law, but now he has a bit of sincerity.

Xuanhe is very satisfied, since the cement has been prepared, it is just right to use it to build a house.

However, the nearest place to live is really a problem. It is easy to find a house in the capital, but it is difficult to find a place as comfortable as his palace, and he does not want to wrong himself.

I always wanted to go, but I decided to live in Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the city for a while.

It's just that I have to go to the palace to bid farewell after staying outside for a long time.

The second prince and the third prince all lived in the palace, one was restricted in his movements, and the other was recuperating in bed.

The atmosphere in the palace was still a little tense, no one was talking in any remote corners, and the palace with tens of thousands of people was remote, and there was no human voice.

The imperial concubine's palace was a bit better, but it didn't take long, Xuanhe only sat for a while, when he saw someone coming from the empress dowager's palace, saying that the empress dowager asked the imperial concubine to go together to pray for the emperor and Dayong.

To put it bluntly, it is to kneel there to pick up Buddha beans.

I don't know where the old lady learned this unscrupulous way of torturing her daughter-in-law.

Xuanhe is here, so she will naturally not leave. The noble concubine took a look at Qingluan, and she went to the father-in-law who sent the message, "Please trouble the father-in-law to go, but the empress is not feeling well today, and I ask the empress dowager to forgive me."

Even though the father-in-law came here at the Queen Mother's order, he didn't dare to make trouble in front of the noble concubine, and he got Qingluan's favor, so he went back.

The noble concubine looked natural, as if the scene just now had never happened, and the Xuanhe acted as if it never happened. The reason why the imperial concubine is the imperial concubine is not only because of the emperor's favor.

"Autumn is cool and refreshing, just right for going out for a walk. It's cheaper for you to live in Zhuangzi."

Xuanhe didn't say that he wanted to go out for a walk, the imperial concubine must have meant something when she said this, and Xuanhe only figured out the taste when he came out of the palace.

If he went out for activities, it would be equivalent to giving a signal to each family to lift the ban: Look, all the dandy young masters of the emperor's family have come out to play, is there anyone closer to the emperor than him?

When Prince Baojun travels, all matters are arranged by someone, he only needs to bring himself, and Xie Feng called for the uniform today.

The word Beijing passed by, and the atmosphere in the imperial city spread to the outside of the imperial city. Not to mention that the people stayed behind closed doors, they were affected to some extent.

The street is not as lively as it used to be.

When passing by the wonton shop, Xuan He got off the horse directly.

Xie Feng didn't know what he wanted to do, so he also got off the horse.

However, Xuanhe flicked up his clothes and then sat down on the empty stall. As soon as he sat down, people wondered if the wontons on the stall were rare delicacies.

Xuan He took out his chopsticks from the chopsticks cage, wiped them with a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "Boss, here is a bowl of wontons, add more vinegar."

Xuanhe stopped here on his horse, and many people looked at him, but they saw that he didn't say that he would buy wontons today, but sat down and ate directly.

Not only did he eat it himself, but he also ordered a bowl for Xie Feng.

The boss carefully brought up the wontons, and the two princes rolled up their sleeves and started eating.

In autumn, the weather was getting colder and colder every day. They were sweating profusely while eating the freshly cooked wontons with fresh soup.

Seeing the two of them eating so deliciously, other people on the street were a little bit greedy, but the nobleman was here, so he didn't have the guts to come over.

After Xuanhe finished eating the wontons, he picked up the bowl and took a sip of the soup, then let out a satisfied sigh.It's not that the wontons are better than the ones made by the chefs in his house and Zhaixing Building, it's just that I'm used to eating such exquisite things, and it's also a pleasure to taste the ordinary taste occasionally.

Seeing the smile on his face, someone dared to say: "Why didn't the prince of the county treat you today?"

Xuan He nodded: "You are talking about it," he cleared his throat, and shouted: "Today's wonton..."

"I have."

Xie Feng put down his chopsticks and took up his words very naturally, Xuanhe didn't argue with him, and said with a smile: "My house is in disaster, it's time for you to invite me."
