As the night falls, the house of the banker lights up gradually.

People take down the lanterns one by one in the corridor, light them up and then hang them up.

Zhuang Taifu sat in his study and looked at the folds presented by Xu Zifu and others.

Recently, there has been quite a stir in the court. Xing Shangshu and Empress Dowager Zhuang rehabilitated and restored their status and power respectively. When the Empress Dowager was framed, the words of Zhuang Taifu's stand by behavior were different. Some ministers thought that he was ungrateful, regardless of his younger brother and sister's family, while others suggested that he was an insider, just acting with empress dowager Zhuang and others.

There are so many different opinions in the world. The words of Wen Chen are just for this. If they are really idle, they should find something else to be unhappy with.

What Zhuang Taifu really cared about was not the quarrel in the court, but the dispute——

His eyes fell on a landscape painting on the opposite wall.

"Master!" The manager of the dealer reported happily at the door, "the princess is back!"

……

Outside the majestic gate of zhuangfu, Prince an, dressed in plain clothes, knelt down on the steps.

Zhuang Taifu didn't hear from him all the time when he left the dealer, but if he didn't, he was still alive. If he died, the capital would turn upside down.

Zhuang Taifu didn't try to find him. He cut off all his retreat. He expected that he would not last long and would come back home one day.

Sure enough, isn't it?

Zhuangtaifu came to the door of zhuangtaifu in a brown gray cloak.

No matter how Zhuang Taifu punished Prince an, he was his own grandson. He could see the downfall of Prince an, but the servants could not.

"The little one, go to the warehouse and have a look." After they met, the steward also found an excuse to leave.

Zhuang Taifu said, "no, you'll stay here."

The manager was embarrassed: "ah, yes."

It's too hard for him. Today I saw the joke of the little master. The little master will be in charge of the house in the future. Can't I wear little shoes for him?

Zhuang Taifu didn't pay attention to the management. He walked slowly to the steps and looked down at the figure kneeling on the ground.

It's been a long time. I should know that it's hard to live outside.

"Look up."

Princess an slowly raised his head and looked wistfully at his grandfather.

Zhuang Taifu wanted to say, look at yourself, how thin you are, but when you look at it, you'll get stuck in your throat.

Is it an illusion?

How do you feel like this kid's got meat?

Princess an used to be a handsome and elegant man, but he had a shallow concave cheek, slightly thin.

Now it's gone!

Face round, face all have blessing!

Of course, it has nothing to do with being fat, that is, when you grow up, you will be more like the sunshine and the beauty of this age.

But it's strange, isn't it?

He's skinny at home, and he's fattening himself when he goes out?

The main reason is that the king of an County was forced to work every day by Gu Yan. He did more physical work, and his appetite increased greatly. The people who came and went grew strong.

He used to be full in one bowl at home, but now he is a super dry rice man who can hold two bowls and three bowls!

Zhuang Taifu's mood suddenly became a little irritable.

"Grandfather." Princess an took the initiative to say, "my grandson is back."

This sentence finally broke the short silence and pulled Zhuang Taifu back from the situation that he didn't know how to react. Zhuang Taifu said coldly, "do you know how to come back? I have warned you that if you dare to go out that door, you can't come back easily! "

Prince an bowed his head and said, "grandson, please forgive me."

Zhuang Taifu snorted coldly: "forgive? What you said is light. In the future, everyone will be the same as you. If you are happy, you will stay at home. If you are not happy, you will run away from home. Then what is my banker? "

The king no longer quibbled and bowed his head in repentance.

The steward quickly advised: "master, the prince is also in a daze. Since he is wrong, you should forgive him for his filial piety to you. The princess will not dare to do it again in the future! Is that right, Sheriff? "

He said and looked at the king of Ann who knelt down and repented.

Princess an nodded dully: "the steward is right. My grandson has suffered a lot outside, and I dare not disobey my grandfather any more."

This is a little unconvincing. After all, it's so good to bear hardships. You can't go to heaven without hardship?

But Zhuang Taifu really didn't think that the king of an County had any reason not to suffer. After all, all the relationships that the king of an County could take refuge in were called by him in advance, and no one dared to accept him.

He would not be allowed to stay in a big inn or restaurant.

At most, he lived in a small inn with some broken silver in his body.

"Come in and kneel!" Zhuang Taifu said coldly.

"Yes."

An Jun Wang should go down, the steward went down the birthmark to help an Jun Wang up.

The frail body of his own princess

The idea hasn't flashed over, the prince of an County stood up by himself, want to have more Ma Liu, have more Ma Liu.

In charge of:

Prince an followed Zhuang Taifu to his courtyard.

Zhuang Taifu asked the king of an County to kneel at the door of his study.

Princess an whispered: "let me kneel inside. It's a shame."

Zhuang Taifu hehe said: "do you still know shame?"

Princess an said with special care: "it's OK for me to lose face. It's not good for my grandfather to lose face."

"Hum!"

Zhuang Taifu brushed his sleeve coldly, but he didn't turn anyone out.

Prince Ann knelt in the middle of his study.

Since Zhuang Taifu wanted to give him a little prestige, he would not show too much concern for him. For example, he asked him how he had been, where he was, whether he had enough to eat and whether he was well dressed.

If he asked, he might be able to detect some fragmentary flaws and clues.

From time to time, Prince an looked at Zhuang Taifu. Zhuang Taifu knew it, but he didn't think much about it. He just thought that the child was looking at his face.

He said coldly, "don't think I'll forgive you so soon."

"How long will it take to kneel?" The prince of an asked wrongly.

As soon as this remark came out, Zhuang Taifu was enraged. Did he come to admit his mistake? I don't know how to get on my knees?

Zhuang Taifu said angrily: "kneel to your long memory!"

This plan let an county king return to yard, Zhuang Taifu changed his mind, should let him kneel to wear this floor!

"Master."

The steward is here again.

This time, he looked a little hidden.

Zhuang Taifu understood and coldly looked at the princess an on the ground: "you kneel down honestly for me!"

"Yes." The prince of an was wronged.

Zhuang Taifu left his study.

Princess an got up and put his ear on the crack of the door.

The steward said in a low voice, "master, Jiang Ping has come back. He said he has something to report to you. Do you want to bring him here?"

Zhuang Taifu looked back at the study with the hidden door and said, "forget it, you let him wait in my tea room."

"Yes," said the steward

When Zhuang Taifu returned to his study, Prince an had knelt down respectfully. Zhuang Taifu glanced at the landscape map on the wall, hesitated for a moment, and said to Prince an, "go back first!"

"Thank you, grandfather." The king of Anson bowed his hand and stood up on the table.

After he left the courtyard, Zhuang Taifu went to the tea room on the other side of the corridor.

And Prince Ann walked around and came back.

"My jade pendant is in it."

He said to the boy who was guarding the yard.

Princess an was originally a very special presence in the Chuang family. He was able to go in and out of the courtyard of Chuang Tai Fu freely. In addition, he was brought back by Chuang Tai Fu himself, which means that the conflict between the grandson and the grandson has been resolved. The boy dare not stop him and let him in.

Prince an went to Zhuang Taifu's study in a hurry. He didn't find it anywhere. He went straight to the landscape painting hanging on the wall opposite his desk.

He just noticed that his grandfather had read it three times in the process of reading the memorial, once when he went out to talk with the steward, and once again when he was asked to go back to the hospital.

With his understanding of his grandfather, there must be a mystery behind the painting!

He took the painting off, but to his disappointment, behind it was the ordinary wall.

There are no dark cells and no cracks.

"What's the matter? Is it because I'm oversensitive? Grandfather just likes this painting? Is this painting valuable? "

It seems to be an antique painting. It's very valuable.

Princess an frowned: "no, there must be something wrong. How could a man with such a high vision of grandfather be so nervous about an antique painting?"

Bata!

Princess an's hand slipped and the scroll fell to the ground. The top of the scroll was loose.

He squatted down, picked up the scroll, and pulled out the top of the scroll which seemed to be the whole, but actually was stitched together.

The shaft is hollow!

There's something in there!

The prince of an fell down the scroll, and a bright yellow imperial edict fell out.

An Jun Wang spread out a look, found that it was a blank imperial edict of the former Emperor, sealed with the jade seal and the seal of the former Emperor.

If you write something on it, it will become the legacy of the former Emperor!

It is not difficult to abolish Your Majesty's throne and establish King Ning or any prince or prince!

Is this what Jiang Ping brought back from Yan people?

Is it the mace left by Princess Jing to Qin Fengyan?

Since Princess Jing has such a powerful thing, why don't she take it out early to protect her life?

It's too late to deal with these doubts. The king of onjun only knows that such a terrible thing must not fall into his grandfather's hands!

He put on the Edict and hung the picture back intact.

He came to the door.

After thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and went back.

……

The moon is dark and the wind is high.

Princess an walked out in a hurry with the imperial edict in his arms.

"Sheriff."

Along the way, many young men and servant girls greet him.

He didn't pay attention to any of them and walked straight towards the door of the dealer.

"Sheriff, are you going out so late?" Asked the gatekeeper.

Princess an's eyes flashed and his voice said as usual: "I have something to do. Go out for a while."

"Will someone follow you?" Asked the boy.

"No Princess Ann refused.

If you don't know what to say, I'll give him a way.

Princess an stepped over the high threshold, one foot just stepped out, but before landing, there was Zhuang Taifu's solemn and cold voice behind him: "stop!"
