On this day, Fan Xuanchao was doing nothing, Gu Yu brought Zhang's newly sent maid to him to hold his eyes.

That Xiaoman was bright and generous, with peach blossom eyes and blood-red lips, Fan Xuanchao's eyes lit up.

Mrs. Zhang likes those who are dull-eyed, at most they are handsome and pleasant, and they are afraid that they will spoil the masters.Even the servants don't like to use those who are too good-looking. After all, it's the trend now. If you come to a good-looking one, isn't it going to be over?

Seeing that Gu Yu, who is gentle and considerate, and Jing Zhe, whom Fan Xuanchao has always loved, couldn't make him fall in love, Mrs. Zhang thought that maybe her son didn't like this kind of girl, so she sent a gorgeous one.However, Mrs. Zhang didn't know that Fan Xuanchao had been the same girl in her previous life, so a girl was good-looking, and he could only appreciate it if she gave it to him.

Fan Xuanchao searched in his mind what she looked like back then, but he couldn't remember clearly, she seemed to be a thin, thin, withered matchstick-like girl. "How are you doing in the mansion? It's just that I think being a maid in the mansion is better than being a daughter of a good family."

Xiao Man Yingying leaned over, "My servant came all the way from Liaodong with my father. My relatives have long been separated, and my father died of illness. The young master kindly took me in, and this servant has already regarded himself as a member of the Fan family."

When a girl's family is ruined and there is no place to stay, she may indeed have a sense of belonging to the family that took her in.But Fan Xuanchao felt strangely...a sense of guilt.He only gave a few taels of silver and added a maid to the family to gain the loyalty of this person. Fan Xuanchao even felt that he was taking advantage of this person's danger.

Fan Xuanchao shook his head, throwing away this thought, he didn't do anything bad, he saved a person - isn't that right?

"Since that's the case, you should learn the rules from Gu Yu." Fan Xuanchao said, "Gu Yu, you and Jing Zhe are too much trouble."

Gu Yu nodded and said: "Xiao Man is smart, and he has learned the rules of the house well, so we don't need to teach him anything."

After the two retreated, Fan Xuanchao casually picked up a book of travel notes, read a few words, and fell asleep again.The weather in early winter was chilly, and Fan Xuanchao began to change into thick clothes. His body was warm, and the room was also warm, so he wanted to sleep.

When Zhu Youjian came, he saw Fan Xuanchao sitting on a chair in the study, with one arm under his head and two legs stretched out lazily, revealing his slender ankles.

Zhu Youjian couldn't help but glanced twice, and then pushed him awake, "Get up, it's cold, I'm afraid you'll get sick if you sleep in the study."

In his sleep, Fan Xuanchao seemed to feel someone pushing him, shrank to the other side, and raised his other hand to cover his eyes.

Zhu Youjian laughed. Seeing him like this, he also aroused his playfulness, picked up a strand of hair from Fan Xuanchao's cheek, and brushed it gently over his ear in circular motions.Fan Xuanchao was in a daze, his ears were itchy, he hummed twice, and moved his hand covering his eyes to cover his ears.

Zhu Youjian used his hair to harass his eyes. Fan Xuanchao's eyes were big and energetic, neither promiscuous peach blossom eyes nor overly serious long eyes, and he was the most beautiful when he smiled.

Seeing that Fan Xuanchao hadn't moved, Zhu Youjian changed his position, brushing his hair back and forth across his nose and cheeks like a small brush.Zhu Youjian had never paid attention to what a man's face looked like, but this time he took a closer look.

The morning glow is the face, and the sunset is the lips.

In a trance, Zhu Youjian even felt that Fan Xuanchao was more beautiful, more beautiful, and full of talent than Concubine Tian Gui, who was crowned in the harem back then.Zhu Youjian often thinks of Fan Xuanchao saying "I want to change Daming to a new look", the destructive brilliance that burst out from his eyes was hotter than charcoal fire and more dazzling than meteors.

Fan Xuanchao was annoyed by being teased, thinking that only Fan Xuanlang has such a childlike innocence, he opened his eyes, "Langer, you—" When it was clear who this figure taller than Fan Xuanlang was, Fan Xuanchao's anger dissipated when he got up "Your Highness, why are you here?"

"I have nothing to do. I saw the construction of the new mansion. I invite you to enjoy it together." Zhu Youjian thought of such a reason casually, "I heard from Cao Jin that they moved a Lin Hongmei. I haven't seen it yet. Let's not go together."

Fan Xuanchao thought about it, and said, "I really want to go, but it's only the beginning of winter, I'm afraid the plum blossoms haven't bloomed yet?"

"If it's not open, we'll drink and play chess. It's also pretty good." It's also the season when plum blossoms are not in bloom. It's just right to drink and play chess. I haven't played with Fan Xuanchao for a few days, and my hands are itchy.

The two left the house happily, Zhu Youjian came on horseback, and Fan Xuanchao also rode of course.Zhu Youjian was riding a fierce vermilion horse, and when he saw Fan Xuanchao pulling out a docile filly, he wanted to bully him.Zhu Youjian let out a soft snort, pulled the reins, watched Fan Xuanchao get on his horse, and said, "When you pass the palace examination next year, if you win the first prize, I will give you a hard-earned BMW."

Fan Xuanchao tilted his head and asked, "What if I pass the exam?"

Zhu Youjian laughed, "You won the small three yuan, and you want to win the first prize. If you even win the top six, it will be auspicious. No matter how much the emperor rewards you, why do you still care about my gift?"

"Your Majesty's reward is your Majesty's heart of cherishing talents. It is believed that His Majesty gave it to us because of our friendship. This is different, and I want it from you." Fan Xuanchao said, with pure black eyes It was clear inside.

Zhu Youjian seemed to be the only one in Fan Xuanchao's eyes, and he blurted out, "Then you just wait! I'll send you—"

Send you a splash of wealth.

At the last moment, Zhu Youjian stopped the car in time, remembering that he is not yet the emperor.

"Why don't you continue talking?"

Zhu Youjian shook his head, just pursed his lips and smiled, "Don't say it, don't say it, you will know when the time comes."

Emperor Tianqi has reigned for seven years, and next year will be the sixth year.Zhu Youjian has the final say on how to send this wealth and honor at that time.

Fan Xuanchao didn't care, anyway, Zhu Youjian was the later emperor, so how to send him off, could it be worse?

The two of them went to Prince Xin's mansion together.The mansion selected by Emperor Tianqi for Zhu Youjian was at the foot of the imperial city, where the top powers of the Ming Dynasty gathered, and it was very close to the imperial palace, which showed a sense of love.

When Zhu Youjian arrived, the workers here were still busy arranging and repairing, and it was a bustling scene.As soon as Zhu Youjian stepped in, he frowned.

The official from the Ministry of Rites who was overseeing the work hurried forward to pay his respects. Seeing that His Highness Xin Wang frowned and looked dissatisfied, he said in his heart, "I have seen His Highness Xin Wang."

"Well, let's get up." Zhu Youjian said casually, "Is there no quiet place here? I heard that the plum blossoms in the backyard have moved over."

"The plum blossoms in the backyard have already been planted, but I'm afraid I won't be able to see them this winter, and next winter at the earliest." The official of the Ministry of Rites replied honestly, "But the whole backyard has been built, the lake pavilion has been repaired, and it's clean there too. .If His Highness is willing, you can take a look."

Zhu Youjian turned to look at Fan Xuanchao, "How?"

Fan Xuanchao is comparing the splendor of the Prince Xin's Mansion and the British Duke's Mansion, as well as Wei Zhongxian's ancestral hall.It is estimated that building houses in ancient times is not richer than others. There are regulations and rules. I think the Xinwang Mansion is more gorgeous.It's just that it hasn't been built yet, and it looks a bit...plain.

When he heard Zhu Youjian questioning him, he said casually, "Anywhere is fine."

Zhu Youjian smiled, and thought that if he wanted to play chess and drink, there might not be a teapot for wine and water here, so he told his followers: "Go and buy some hot wine, and there is also a chess board."

Follow the answer and go.

The two of them followed the officials from the Ministry of Rites around the front and walked back. As soon as they passed the wall, they could feel that it was much quieter here.The forest has been built, but it is all dead branches and trunks, not even a leaf or a flower.Fortunately, the Huxin Pavilion fit Fan Xuanchao's intentions. It was built in the middle of the lake, surrounded by water, and only a wooden corridor connected to the shore.

When the two sat down, Zhu Youjian disliked that the officials from the Ministry of Rites who led the way took up the space, and sent him back to supervise the work.It's cold in winter, but the stone bench has already been covered with buckskin mats, making it warm, and the chess sets are laid out.Although it was bought on a temporary basis, I will not just buy some defective products. There are many rich and powerful families around here, and there are no shops selling defective products.So what I bought back was a pair of Go on a white jade plate.

The black and white chess pieces are cold at first, every time Fan Xuanchao touches the chess pieces, he can't wait to put them down early, and he no longer has the interest to start playing with them.

Zhu Youjian kept his eyes on the chessboard. Every time he made a move, Fan Xuanchao immediately followed him. He held white and Fan Xuanchao held black.The weather is cold, and there is no blood on the hands, which are pale and delicate against the pure black chess pieces.Zhu Youjian really didn't even have the thought of thinking about chess moves, he just wanted to look at the scallion-white jade-colored fingers again, tapping lightly on the chessboard.

Fan Xuanchao looked at the chess game and frowned, why did he feel that Zhu Youjian was not thinking about the chess game?Obviously there is a better place, so he insisted on squeezing in the middle one—although he seized the opportunity to take a lot of pieces, but the opponent had no intention of playing chess, so it was meaningless to take more pieces.

But Zhu Youjian didn't say what was on his mind, and Fan Xuanchao couldn't ask, so he could only delay the time so that His Majesty the future emperor would lose less and play longer.

While playing chess, he put his other hand in his wide sleeve to keep warm, and he couldn't help but put his right hand to his mouth to breathe and warm up.When the wine was hot, he touched the glass with his right hand again.The wine glass was small, only enough to warm the cold fingertips, but just like that, Fan Xuanchao was satisfied.

While thinking in his heart that he might be sick again when he goes back, he then thought that he was obviously playing chess with King Xin, and it was as if the two of them were so poor that they had no money to burn coal.But judging by Zhu Youjian's silent appearance, it should be regarded as giving up his life to accompany a gentleman.

Fan Xuanchao's fingertips were warmed red and cute by the hot wine, and the chess piece was even more beautiful.Zhu Youjian finally couldn't help it, and when he made up his mind, he held him with one hand before retracting his hand.

Fan Xuanchao was stunned.
