Chapter 115: The Small Courtyard

  Fourth Master practiced calligraphy again, and Ye Zao also wrote a few pages with him.

  There isn't anything specific to write about, just whatever comes to mind.

  Either a poem or a sentence.

  Fourth Master finished writing and looked over. Coincidentally, Ye Zao also put down her pen. Her handwriting was good, Fourth Master took a look and nodded: "Mmm, don't waste this handwriting."

  "Ah, Grandpa's handwriting is even better." Ye Zao smiled mischievously.

  Fourth Master grunted and looked at her wearing his large coat with dirty sleeves.

  This woman is sometimes really carefree.

  Then washed his hands and face, he went to bed.

  The rain outside was pattering and showed no signs of stopping.

  Fourth Master slept with Ye Zao, and he rarely let her off easily.

  Earlier, Fourth Master still thought she was too young and had reservations in his heart. Now that time has passed, and Fourth Master has also asked the imperial physician to prepare medicine for her to avoid pregnancy, he has let go of many things.

  Although still a bit lenient with her, not too intense, but men... sometimes can't help it.

  After a lively and pleasant fight between the fairies, Ye Zao was so exhausted that she couldn't say anything anymore, her whole body feeling sore and soft as she hugged Siye's arm.

  The rain outside seemed to be getting heavier, Ye Zao stretched out his hand and gently poked Fourth Master's hand: "Master... I'm so thirsty."

  Fourth Master grunted and then had someone come in to attend to him.

  Several girls came in, and it felt like a gust of cold wind was brought in. After they finished washing up, Yuhe poured hot water for Ye Zao and Fourth Master to drink.

  They all went out again, put away the account books and turned off the lights.

  Ye Zao Wo said in Si Ye's arms: "The rain is getting heavier."

  Fourth Master thought to himself, this is harvest season, such a big rain...

  She didn't mind what Ye Zao said, but one hand was gently stroking her back.

  Ye Zao knew that Fourth Master's mind was wandering off, so she closed her eyes and didn't say another word.

  It was Fourth Master, this time his reaction arc was particularly long, and it wasn't until after a while that he hummed in agreement, only to lower his head and see the woman in his arms already fast asleep.

  Fourth Master put her down in a daze, then pulled up the quilt and closed his eyes.

  However, at night, perhaps because of the rain, Ye Zao still moved towards Siye's side.

  Two people slept soundly side by side.

  The next morning, when Fourth Master got up, the rain had stopped, but the weather was indeed colder.

  News from Mongolia arrived in the capital city early this morning.

  Of course, it was known only to the princes and a few senior officials in the court.

  Emperor Kangxi fell off his horse.

  This is already a matter between Mid-Autumn Festival, it was hidden at first, and this time it fell very badly.

  Many doctors accompanied him, and it was estimated that he would only speak out after stabilizing.

  Nor did he dare to announce it publicly, but only passed it on to a small number of people in the court.

  Fourth Master entered the palace and saw that in the Nan Shu Fang, the Crown Prince and Zhenguo Gong were sitting. He arrived just after Third Master and Fifth Master had left, and it was only then that Zhenguo Gong spoke of this matter.

  "The Emperor has already set out and will return to the capital by September. We don't need to go and meet him." said Zhenguo Duke.

  The prince just sat there, completely unbothered by the fact that this message was being conveyed to the Duke of Zheng.

  Fourth Master felt a bit uneasy in his heart, but seeing the Crown Prince being so calm and collected, he also didn't dare to speak.

  Only with Third Master and Fifth Master together did they respond.

  Even if you don't have to go out of the city to meet him, you still need to get the timing right and wait for him at the palace gate.

  Of course, they were more worried about Kangxi's body.

  It's still unclear when it comes back, no one knows what happened to this leg.

  Several ministers arrived at dawn, and the King of Zhiguang repeated his words. Everyone looked like the sky was about to fall.

  When all those who should leave had left, Suo Etu and several other officials of the Taizi faction followed the Taizi to Yuqing Palace.

  "Does the prince have a plan for this matter?" Suo E Tuo naturally knew that this news had been passed on to Zhenguo Gong.

  He is also worried.

  "What should I do when I see Su Xiang?" The prince sat down leisurely and asked.

  Suo E Tuo frowned, while the rest of the officials were all at a loss.

  "Since there's no countermeasure, let's just go with the flow." The prince smiled faintly: "There's nothing else going on here, do you have something?"

  Originally, there were things to say, but now no one can speak up; who can't see that the young master is in a bad mood?

  Fortunately, it's nothing serious.

  Suo E Tuo also saw the prince's annoyance and led the way out of Yuqing Palace.

  The crown prince sat for a while and then called the eunuch to change his clothes before leaving the palace.

  Camellia left the Hundred Flowers Building half a month ago.

  After all, as the crown prince of a country, he cannot keep going to brothels for a long time.

  She now lives in Niu Tou Hutong, and the crown prince can get there by walking a short distance from Xihua Gate.

  It was a small courtyard, not several floors, but a standard quadrangle courtyard.

  As soon as I entered, there was a large pagoda tree.

  It is said that a large locust tree in the courtyard of an ordinary residence is unlucky, but this tree has been growing for many years and successive owners have not had the heart to cut it down.

  And here, perhaps being close to the foot of the imperial city, nothing bad has ever happened.

  It makes this courtyard even more lively and vibrant.

  On the corridor, big red pillars, green railings, and the carvings on top are also red and green. It looks delicate and festive.

  The two old women had already come forward and knelt down: "Your humble servants pay their respects to Your Highness."

  "Where are the girls?" The prince walked in with his hands behind his back, asking as he went.

  "Speaking of which, the young lady was tired from planting flowers and fell asleep," a woman hastily said.

  As they spoke, Fengying came out wearing a half-new and half-old Han Chinese robe.

  She didn't wear powder or rouge, her long hair was scattered about, and she smiled as she came out: "The prince has arrived?"

  "Are there not enough people at your disposal here?" The prince asked casually.

  "That's enough, planting flowers is my hobby and it's only fun when I do it myself. Has the prince arrived? Can we have lunch now? Shall I go to the kitchen?" Feng Ying asked with a smile.

  The crown prince sat on the veranda: "Let's have a conversation." But he didn't say whether it was good or bad.

  Feng Ying nodded and said to a servant: "Wu Ma, bring tea."

  Seeing this, Dong Bao hurriedly dodged away.

  The prince looked around the yard, it was his first time here. Before, when Fengying lived here, it was arranged by Dongbao.

  The courtyard was bought by him, and the two women were found by him, all are his own people.

  Know the root and know the bottom.

  Everything here was done by him. Now it seems that it's also quite proper.

  Inside hasn't been carefully looked at yet, but outside it's still pretty good.

  "Is your accommodation comfortable? If anything is lacking, just let the housekeeper know." The prince said.

  "Nowadays, I don't lack anything. I am a free person. If I'm short of something, I can go out and buy it. For small things, I can afford them myself. As for big things, I can always ask the prince if needed." Feng Ying casually sat down beside the prince.

  "Didn't you say that if you didn't like it, you wouldn't be willing to follow? Now you're calculating so finely, are you planning to stay for a lifetime?" The prince smiled slightly, he looked over and found that Feng Ying had left the Hundred Flowers Building, after changing into such ordinary clothes, she actually had an even more elegant and worldly beauty.
