Hearing the address of Second Young Master Yan, Ban Han was stunned for a moment before reacting.
"Isn't he too sick to get out of bed? Why is he standing in front of our door?" Ban Heng jumped up in anger. "Who cares if he's the Prime Minister's son, let the guards chase him away!" This person was crazy, he knew that his sister was already engaged to Rong Xia, why did he still come to find his sister?
If word got out, even if Rong Xia didn't care, it wouldn't be good for other people to talk about it.
"Send someone to inform the people of Prime Minister Yan's residence. Don't blame us for not fixing the steps and tripping this noble young master's foot." Ban Heng was extremely dissatisfied with Yan Zhen's behavior. If it wasn't for the fact that Yan Zhen usually didn't go out, he would have already put a sack on him and beat him up.
"How did the Yan Family teach their children, they don't know the rules at all!" Ban Heng did not forget to scold him.
Ban Han inexplicably felt that these words were somewhat familiar.
"Sister, don't pay attention to this kind of person. The more you pay attention to him, the more he will get angry." Ban Heng's anger had not subsided, he turned to Ban Han and said, "They say that love is as deep as the sea. In fact, he has read too many books, his love is as deep as the sea. Don't be soft-hearted just because he is pitiful."
From beginning to end, Ban Han did not even have time to say a word, but Ban Heng had already said almost everything.
"Okay, okay, I won't see him. Why are you angry with him?" Ban Han patted Ban Heng's head, like an owner comforting a pet dog. Ban Heng made a fuss about not letting him pat his head, and calmed down.
"Then what do we do now?" Ban Heng could beat people, put a sack on them, and bring servants to cause trouble, but he was not good at using his brain. Although he felt that Ban Han was not much smarter than him, but his brain was still a little bit better.
"Didn't you just say it? Send someone to Prime Minister Yan's fu and have them bring him back," Ban Han stood up, his long hair falling behind his back, "I'm in the mourning period, and I'm already engaged. How can I go see an outsider?"
Ban Heng: "But you went out this morning to buy sweets. Isn't this excuse too far-fetched?"
"Do you think it's better to use a far-fetched excuse, or just say that I don't want to see him?" Ban Han asked.
"Then let's just force it. At least we have an excuse." Ban Heng rubbed his nose and hurried out of the courtyard to look for his parents.
However, whatever Ban Han and Ban Heng could think of, the Yin Clan had already thought of it. Seeing her son come in, she said, "Don't panic, I know what you want to say. I've already sent people to Prime Minister Yan's fu."
Ban Heng sat down and said unhappily, "This Yan Zhen doesn't know what's good for him. He's deliberately looking for entertainment for the other people in the capital."
"Young people read a few beautiful love poems and feel that love is the most beautiful thing in the world. Everything else is vulgar. Only by working hard for this love, through life and death, can he show his deep love and the beauty of love. " Yin Clan's tone was faint, "But how can there be so much passionate love in the world? Most of it is about helping each other in times of need and growing old hand in hand. The Yan Family's second son has become stupid from reading too many books. The Yan Family didn't teach him well. "
She was sure that Yan Hui definitely didn't know what Yan Zhen was doing. Now that the Yan Family had just recovered, their foundation wasn't stable yet. What Yan Hui was most afraid of was another accident. How could he allow his son to come back? There was only one result, and that was that Yan Zhen had snuck out of the house.
When a person obtained power and lost it, he would naturally be very careful and cherish it. How could he be so savage and forget himself?
Yan Zhen rested at home for a long time. At one point, he almost couldn't endure it. It wasn't until his eldest brother slapped him awake that he woke up from his muddleheaded state. These days, he had been recuperating at home. Although he missed Princess Fule every day, he didn't say it out loud because of his family's concern.
Originally, he thought that since his father had regained the Emperor's trust, he would be prepared to take up a position in the imperial court. At that time, he would rely on his own ability to show the princess his ability and sincerity so that she would be willing to marry him.
Relying on this idea, he sat up from his bed and persisted in exercising his body every day. Now, he had recovered most of his energy. He even looked a bit stronger than when he first met Princess Fule. But no matter how perfect his plan was, he didn't expect that Ban Han had already been engaged to someone else in the few months that he had been recovering.
When he heard this news from a servant, he felt as if he had been hit by a heavy blow. He walked out in a daze and unknowingly arrived outside the Ban Family's gate. He didn't dare to go up and knock on the door. He didn't even have the courage to ask Ban Han, are you really going to marry Uncle Rong?
He knew that he was cowardly in his bones.
"Second brother," When Yan Ming rushed over, he saw that his brother was still standing foolishly at the entrance of the Ban Family. He was angry and helpless in his heart. Thinking that his body had just recovered, he suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "It's getting late, we should go back."
Just when he thought that his second brother would refuse, he didn't expect that his second brother would obediently nod his head. Half of the anger in his heart immediately dissipated.
"Big brother, I don't want to ride a horse. Let's walk back." Yan Zhen looked back at the closed door of the Ban Family, then turned around and walked in the direction of Prime Minister Yan's residence.
Yan Ming was stunned for a moment before following.
"Big brother," Yan Zhen looked at Yan Ming with a blank expression, "When did the Princess Fule … Was she engaged to Cheng Anbo?"
"I'm not too sure either. It's said that after the Princess Royal was assassinated, the two of them decided on it." Yan Ming's feelings towards the Ban Family were very complicated. He felt guilty and resentful, so he didn't really like to pay attention to the news of the Ban Family. All he knew was the rumors he heard from the outside.
"When the Princess Royal was assassinated," Yan Zhen thought for a long time, "Did Cheng Anbo like her?"
Cheng Anbo was an elegant person. The Princess Fule didn't seem to like calligraphy and painting too much. He was worried that the relationship between the two of them wouldn't be harmonious and the princess would be left out.
"This …" Yan Ming sighed. Seeing his second brother's silly appearance, he couldn't say anything.
Because of the Princess Royal's dying words, he had no choice but to agree to marry a woman. How much would Cheng Anbo like her? Now, who didn't know that Rong Xia had become the Minister of Personnel at such a young age? Firstly, it was because the Emperor trusted him, and secondly, it was because the Emperor wanted to compensate him.
Who could make the Emperor do something to compensate him? Naturally, it was only the Ban Family.
The Princess Royal had used her life to protect His Majesty's safety, so His Majesty naturally had to satisfy her dying wish. Thus, he could only wrong Cheng Anbo. But he couldn't tell his brother these words, so he nodded and said, "It's said that Cheng Anbo often accompanies Princess Fule to play outside. The two of them act intimately. I think they should like it."
"It's good that you like it, it's good that you like it." Yan Zhen forced a smile. "Big brother, you said last time that there was a vacancy in the Ministry of Revenue. I want to try."
Seeing that his second brother had figured it out, Yan Ming revealed a gratified smile. "Alright, I'll have someone arrange it when we get back."
"Little Yan Daren, Second Young Master Yan."
Some people would always appear in front of you when you didn't want them to. For Yan Ming, Rong Xia was the person he didn't want to see right now. If it wasn't for Rong Xia adding insult to injury, their Yan Family's reputation wouldn't have plummeted.
"Duke Rong," Yan Ming cupped his fists to Rong Xia, who was riding on the horse. "This humble one congratulates Duke Rong on his promotion."
"Little Yan Daren is too polite. It's all thanks to the Emperor's kindness that this humble one can have this honor." Rong Xia's gaze fell on Yan Zhen.
"Second Young Master Yan, I haven't seen you for a long time. You're much more energetic than the last time I saw you," Rong Xia said with a smile that wasn't a smile. "It seems that you've recovered well."
Yan Zhen raised his shoulders to make himself look more imposing. He bowed to Rong Xia and said, "Thank you for your concern, Duke Rong. I'm fine."
He suddenly remembered that the last time he saw Rong Xia seemed to be at the Shi Family Villa. At that time, he wanted to marry Princess Fule. Just as he was about to confess his feelings to Princess Fule, Duke Rong, who was dressed up, suddenly appeared. Rong Xia's appearance made the other men in the villa pale in comparison, including him.
Looking at this smiling man, Yan Ming once again realized that he couldn't compare to this man.
Whether it was appearance, aura, or talent.
This was the biggest blow to a man. The woman he liked was going to marry someone else, and this other person was better than him in every way.
"It's good that Second Young Master is fine." Rong Xia chuckled. There was no malice in his tone, but Yan Zhen could feel that this man looked down on him, or rather, he was looking down on him.
Yan Zhen's expression was cold and he didn't say anything.
Rong Xia didn't seem to see his unsightly expression. His jade-white hand played with the horsewhip as he smiled and said, "I heard that Prime Minister Yan has been very interested in a vacancy in the Ministry of Revenue recently?"
Hearing this, Yan Ming's expression immediately became cautious. "What does Cheng Anbo mean by this?" He didn't dare to underestimate Rong Xia. Although this person was young, he was famous and had some influence in the court. In addition, because he was engaged to Princess Fule, some of the idle nobles in the court who had a good relationship with the Ban Family would help him, whether intentionally or unintentionally. Such a person was not easy to offend, and could even be said that he couldn't afford to offend him easily.
"Little Lord Yan is thinking too much. I was just asking one more question," Rong Xia sat up straight and switched the horsewhip from his right hand to his left. "Since Second Young Master has recovered, it's appropriate for him to fill the vacancy in the Ministry of Revenue."
Yan Ming forced a smile and didn't say anything.
Seeing the two brothers like this, the smile on Rong Xia's face became even more modest. "The two of you are busy, so it's not convenient for me to disturb you. I still have some matters to attend to and visit the Duke Of Jingting, so I'll take my leave first. "
Yan Zhen's face darkened.
Yan Ming gritted his teeth and cupped his hands towards Rong Xia. "Take care, Uncle."
"Farewell!" Rong Xia patted the horse. The horse slowly walked past the two of them, leisurely wagging its tail.
Yan Ming stared at Rong Xia's departing figure. His expression changed, but in the end, he endured his anger. He turned to Yan Zhen and said, "Second brother, let's go."
Yan Zhen was stunned for a moment before he slowly followed behind Yan Ming.
He didn't know if he was thinking too much, but Rong Xia seemed to be different from before. But he couldn't tell what was different.
Perhaps it was because he was jealous of this person in his heart.
"Uncle, are we really going to the Duke Dingguo's Mansion?" Du Jiu asked.
Rong Xia said indifferently, "I forgot to bring a visiting card, so I won't be going."
Du Jiu: As long as you're happy.
Rong Xia was about to turn around and go back when he saw a small sedan chair coming towards him. The small sedan chair was heavily veiled, and a graceful woman could be faintly seen sitting inside.
Not long after, the small sedan chair stopped in front of him.
