"Haha, sister Caiyue, there is no need to be polite. Your aunt must have asked you to come. Come, lead the way. Ao'er wants to pay her respects to aunt." Seeing Caiyue, Shen Ao's eyes showed a sincere smile, like It is to see the kindness and familiarity of one's own family.
With Caiyue guiding the way, the group soon arrived at Juhe Palace.
From a distance, Shen Ao saw a figure standing upright next to the lotus pond. Was it not Concubine Zhao or who could it be?
"Aunt. Ao'er is guilty, which makes aunt worried." Leaving Caiyue, Yan Fu and others aside, Shen Ao ran over quickly. When he was still five steps away from Concubine Zhao, he knelt down with a plop. land.
Because of the excessive force, a huge muffled sound came from the ground. From this point of view, Shen Ao's sincerity in kneeling when he saw Zhao Guifei was definitely not the treatment that Emperor Qianwen could enjoy.
Yan Fu in the crowd couldn't help but twitch his right eye when he saw this. Then he quickly calmed down his emotions. From this point of view, His Majesty still has a long way to go to consolidate the relationship between father and son.
"Ao'er, get up quickly." Seeing Shen Ao kneeling on the ground, there was a muffled sound, which hit Concubine Zhao's heart and made her feel distressed. For fear of being crushed, she hurriedly approached the minister. help.
After the two hands were held together, there was excitement in their eyes.
When setting out, Shen Ao could not guarantee that he would win on the battlefield. After all, the battlefield was ever-changing, and no one knew what would happen before it was finally over. At that time, he was even prepared for defeat. Preparation to be killed.
If he calculated it this way, I'm afraid he would never see his aunt again. Now that we can see each other again, it is of course extremely precious.
"Okay, okay, Aoer is fine. He's just a little darker and thinner." He pulled Shen Ao up and looked at him. He also watched Shen Ao turn around in front of him, but he didn't find anything wrong. After that, Concubine Zhao's eyes became more and more happy.
After hearing what the Sixth Prince said, Concubine Zhao began to worry about whether Shen Ao was injured. Now that she finally saw the real person, a big stone fell in her heart, and she finally felt relieved. "Quickly, follow your aunt to the main palace, where Your favorite snacks have been prepared for you."
"Okay." Shen Ao chuckled and followed Concubine Zhao straight to the main wing of Juhe Palace.
In front of the main room, the fifth princess was very happy to see Shen Ao walking over in one piece. It was just the girl's reserve that prevented her from rushing towards her. But Shi'er lowered her head, and Shi'er looked carefully. Shen Ao's eyes had betrayed everything and expressed her truest thoughts.
On the other hand, the Sixth Prince Tang Jia came over unceremoniously. "Brother Ao, it's best that you are fine. By the way, you won the battle this time?"
In contrast, the Sixth Prince was obviously more concerned about the results on the battlefield. Shen Ao didn't pay too much attention because he was excited, but nodded and said: "Yes, we won the battle."
"That's great. I knew that Brother Ao would be able to do it." Hearing this positive result, Tang Jia burst into laughter. After laughing, he had already begun to think about how to deal with the problem. Shen Ao deepened his feelings. A man who can make money, run a business, and lead troops to win battles is a great talent, and should be used by himself.
Compared with Tang Jia's utilitarianism, Concubine Zhao and the fifth princess were more sincere in their joy. Shen Ao felt like he was being held in the moonlight by the stars. He sat in front of the chair and had all kinds of snacks in front of him. He took one bite at a time. Next, he would laugh out loud from time to time, making the entire Juhe Palace filled with bursts of joyful laughter.
...
The young prince is back.
Such a big event soon spread throughout the city, reaching the mansions of many important ministers and the ears of important people.
Prince Xiang's Mansion.
King Xiang was playing with the female shepherds he had just found and was having a great time.
After borrowing a total of 40 million yuan from Daqian Bank, King Xiang felt that he had never been so wealthy. He spent money even more lavishly.
When he had money, he naturally wanted to enjoy life well. He found most of the good women in Daliang City, and then spent a lot of money to buy them. The beauty, the groom every night, really made King Xiang feel like he was alive. Like a fairy.
The female shepherds who were dressed in cool clothes were different from the shepherds of the Qing Dynasty. They were originally engaged in the leather and meat business. Because of their beauty, they were often sold for a price. Now Prince Xiang spent a lot of money to acquire them. After coming down, they naturally had the obligation to make King Xiang have more fun, so they tried their best to please him and entertain him with him.
Prince Xiang's eyes were covered with a white scarf, and he was reaching out to catch any female shepherd. He would always take advantage of her if she was caught.
Prince Xiang was having fun when a shadow suddenly broke into the room and was touched by the third prince who was reaching out. "Haha, haha, I touched it."
As soon as he caught the visitor, King Xiang took his hand, but soon, the sudden tranquility in the air and the feel of his hand gave him a different feeling from before. It seemed that the thing he touched was no longer cool. , and there is no more exciting feeling.
Just when King Zixiang was puzzled, a voice that startled him came from very close to his ear, "Your Highness, your subordinate Han Ce can't continue playing like this, something big will happen."
It was Han Ce's voice that sounded in his ears, and King Xiang was so startled that he took a big step back involuntarily. Then he reached out and took off his eye cloth, and said with a look of displeasure, "Mr. Han, the sky is dark at this time." It’s too late, what are you doing here?”
As the old saying goes, loyal words are hard on the ears.
But any kind of advice is often something people don’t want to listen to, and it won’t please them.
As the chief staff member of Prince Xiang's Mansion, Han Ce led by example. Naturally, what he said was something that Prince Xiang did not want to hear. In the past, due to the prince's power, Prince Xiang was suppressed, so he always had to have someone to give him advice. , so he relied more on this chief staff member. But now, the former prince is a thing of the past. Without so much pressure, Han Ce's role is getting smaller and smaller, and now he is becoming less and less popular with King Xiang. .
King Xiang no longer left it to Han Ce to do many things. Instead, he chose people like Shi Zitong who always said good things. Tonight, Han Ce barged in front of him without permission. King Xiang had already He had an angry look on his face, and he didn't even hear clearly what Han Ce just said.
"What are you doing here? Who allowed you to come in?" Yaxing was disturbed, and King Xiang suddenly felt that he had lost interest and was very angry. People tend to say angry words when they are angry. King Xiang was the same, and he pointed a finger. The direction of the door faced Han Ce and said: "Go out. When you come in later, you need to notify me. You are not allowed to enter?"
King Xiang's unreasonable behavior fell into Han Ce's eyes, making him widen his eyes with a look of disbelief.
He is the chief staff of Prince Xiang. He is the most important person among the think tanks. He should enjoy benefits that others cannot enjoy. For example, he does not need to report when he enters Prince Xiang's palace. For example, he can see Prince Xiang at any time when there is something urgent.
For example, if something is confidential, you can go to Prince Xiang’s study to have a confidential discussion, etc.
This was what King Xiang had promised him before, and Han Ce had always done it this way. He had never seen King Xiang say anything to anyone else. But why was he so uncharacteristic today, pointing at himself and asking him to leave?
Literary men are more proud and have stronger self-esteem than ordinary people.
Different from the recklessness or loyalty of warriors, those people only worship the strong and the supreme power. The literati are different. They have their own pursuits. Often, the more capable the literati are, the less easily they choose their masters.
But once you make a choice, you may not change it for life.
On the other hand, if they start to become disappointed with their current master and their hearts do not belong to them, it will no longer be easy to correct their hearts.
King Xiang's words hurt Han Ce's heart. His face changed from red to white, from white to green, and then to dark green. It changed several colors in a while.
"What? What else do you have to do?" Prince Xiang did not look at Han Ce's face, let alone think about how Han Ce would be feeling now. Now that he has entered Prince Xiang's Mansion and became his own staff,
Naturally, you should act accordingly. This is the difference between a master and a slave.
Besides, King Xiang thinks he treats Han Ce well and tries to satisfy him in terms of food and accommodation. Now that he is in a bad mood, what does it matter if he scolds you a few times? The main reason for this is the downfall of the former prince.
Without a strong opponent, the sharp spear left by your side will not be as useful as before. What's the point of being lazy?
"Okay, I'll leave now." Han Ce also lost his temper and turned around to leave. He no longer regarded himself as a subordinate. It was obvious that he was also very angry at this moment.
Often, the more capable a person is, the louder and weirder his temper. Han Ce falls into this category.
Since King Xiang is so unreasonable to him, there is no need for him to say anything more to him. Besides, both of them are in a bad mood now. Even if they really want to discuss the matter, I am afraid there will be no result.
It's better to leave first and discuss important matters after everyone calms down.
Han Ce left. But he was also angry for a moment and had no intention of breaking with King Xiang. Although he was very dissatisfied with the other party's attitude towards him, as long as King Xiang realized his mistake and gave himself a step down, he would still have to do it for him.
Its effectiveness. After all, he once served as Prince Xiang's teacher, and he has already been deeply imprinted with Prince Xiang. This is not something that he will do if he doesn't want to do it, and there will be no relationship between the two.
Han Ce left, and Prince Xiang lost the interest in having fun before. Looking at the women around him who were still wearing cool clothes, he waved his hands impatiently, "Go, everyone, go down. Xiao Yuzi, find Shi Zitong and Zheng Qi."
