"Smack!" Ji Ling couldn't help but slap on the desk, she stood up straight suddenly, "I didn't know that my brother was so ridiculous!

“…… It's late at night, so go and rest. Seeing that his sister was angry, Ji Yan only closed his eyes slightly, and sighed for a long time.

Ji Ling saw that he persuaded him not to move, and remembered Chen Zhen's ruthlessness, and his heart was like a knife for a while, but he didn't want to stay, so he just took the maid and turned around and left.

When I arrived at the door, I saw Ji Yan dressed in plain clothes, standing at the door and not knowing how long I had been listening.

"Ahh Ji Ling originally cried in front of his brother, the makeup on his face was wet with tears, showing a little embarrassed, at this time, when he saw the juniors coming, he felt a little rude, and couldn't help tilting his head slightly, Fortunately, the light was not very clear at night, and it was not a loss of manners.

"Snow is starting to fall in the sky, auntie go back to the yard to rest first, I still have a few words to say to Daddy. Ji Yan bowed to her, and his tone was gentle.

“…… Don't be too sad. Ji Ling nodded, now is the embarrassing time, it is better to separate from each other, and he walked from the end of the corridor to the outside of the Ten Thousand Scrolls Hall with a lantern with black letters on a white background in one hand, and a group of servants were standing respectfully at the entrance of the courtyard.

Ji Ling out of the Ten Thousand Scrolls Hall, the wind swept the snow in her face, she couldn't help but raise her hand to put on the hood, and handed the lantern to the maid next to her, and she wrapped up the stove, only to feel a little warmer, so packed up and ready to go to the guest house, for a while couldn't help but look back, but saw Ji Yan standing at the door of the study and watching her leave, even the thick night could not hide the young man's upright figure, her heart suddenly settled.

"Daddy, son, please see Daddy. Seeing that Ji Ling was gone, Ji Yan turned around and saluted respectfully towards the study.

"It's Ah, come in. Ji Yan will cry in front of his sister, and at this time, under the dim candlelight, he looks more and more haggard, and he looks more than ten years older than usual.

"Daddy. Ji Yan sat down across from him.

"Since Ah Yan entered Chang'an Academy, you and my father and son have never sat side by side like this and talked well. Ji Yan looked at his son, who was still alone in his face although he was not as thick as an adult Langjun, with relief in his eyes, he was originally sitting on the scale, and he reached out and patted the open space beside him.

"It's ignoring Daddy. Ji Yan meekly got up and moved beside him and sat down, father and son sat side by side, Ji Yan slightly sideways to see each other's sideburns dotted, for a while felt sour in his heart, when he was enlightened, his father taught him to paint red, at that time his father was able to wrap all his little hands with one hand, but now that their father and son are sitting side by side, he feels that his father is far less than the majestic mountain in his memory - Daddy, and he is no longer young.

“…… You heard what your aunt was talking to me just now. Although Ji Yan said that he had decided to become a monk in the Big Buddha Temple after the Shen family was buried, he also felt a lot of debt to the two children.

"I hear you. When Ji Yan first heard Ji Yan's plan, he was angry in his heart, his mother was no longer there, did his father want to leave them? At that moment, the anger in his heart was so high that he almost couldn't help but want to rush into the study and ask this man, why did he treat him and Ah Miao so cruelly! Could it be that in his father's heart, their brother and sister are not as good as Ah Niang alone? But at this moment, when he really sat in front of his father and looked at the other party's slightly rickety figure, no matter how much resentment he had in his heart, it dissipated.

He has always been the object of envy of his classmates, there is no brother and sister in the family, his mother is majestic but loving, his little sister is lively and cute, and his father treats them more gently, he has not been reprimanded once since he was a child in Dalian, and he used to hear his classmates talk about his father with a look of fear, father and son are like cat and mouse, and they can't wait to see each other.

But their father and son are different, he dares to tell his father if he has any unresolved matters, and he asks his father for help if he doesn't understand. Later, he studied in Chang'an Academy, his father went down to the court when the court was in the court, and he went to the academy to see him, the father and son had lunch together in the Qingyun Building next to the academy, and the classmates at the bottom were surprised at first, but later they envied their father and son getting along well, although he was silent on his face, but he was very happy in his heart, so that when he arrived at the Qingyun Building, he had to pick the position by the window on the second floor, so that everyone could see it.

Ji Yan was speechless for a while, he didn't know what to say to his son, but he took a closer look at Ji Yan, the other party's side face had already shown the edges and corners of an adult, and there was nothing more gratifying to him than seeing his son become an adult, but he didn't want to show the emotions in his heart, and only his slightly trembling fingers revealed some of his master's thoughts.

"Daddy, please ask Daddy to pick up the words for Daddy. Ji Yan smiled gently, like talking when he was a child, although he could no longer be coquettish in his father's arms, but their father and son sat side by side, and he only felt peaceful in his heart when he spoke, "Now my Ji family has the eldest brother in front of Jinju Governor, and Daddy is not beautiful in a high position, since he has no intention of career, it is better to do what he wants to do wholeheartedly, and if the eldest brother is old, he is already a warrior who fights on the battlefield to protect his family and defend the country. ”

"Liu Xiang said to "Shuo Yuan, Tan Cong": It is better to be wise and private, than to be foolish and use the public, so he said: 'It is better to be clever and honest than to be clumsy. Ji Yan paused, he was not a fool, he understood that Ji Yan's words were for his old father to subtract the guilt in his heart, so he just patted his son on the shoulder, "From now on, I will give my son the word 'humble sincerity', and I hope that my son will be filial piety and faithfulness from now on, not to move for profit, not to change for trouble, and to abide by the truth." ”

"Thank you, father!" Ji Yan immediately got up and turned to the main hall, knelt down towards Ji Yanji, and bowed three times.

Ji Yan bowed to him three times, suddenly remembered something, got up and turned to the study, and after a while, he opened the cabinet and took out a rosewood box carved with a picture of frolicking under the moon.

"What is this?" Ji Yan was a little curious, and stepped forward to see that there was a gold-inlaid jade crown with a hollow carved double dragon spitting beads in the red sandalwood box, and the craftsmanship was outstanding, and even the long beard of the dragon's mouth was made lifelike.

"This golden crown was originally prepared for my son and the crown, waiting for my son to change into a big dress to sacrifice to the temple and tell the ancestors, but now I can only be wronged and honest. Ji Yan's heart was slightly sour, and he raised his hand to summon Zhan Lu, and asked him to come over with a set of tools to comb his hair, the world is impermanent, his child could have had a grand crown ceremony, and there were high friends to congratulate him on becoming an adult, but now he is only in this study, except for their father and son, there is only one Zhan Lu who is watching.

"Your aunt is not outstanding in the women's boudoir, when you were young, you and Ah Miao were me combing your hair, this more than ten years, I don't know if the craftsmanship is rusty. Ji Yan took the ivory comb and said with a smile, only mentioning the old things with tears in his eyes, "If you pull your hair heavily for a while, you must tell Daddy." ”

"Good. Ji Yan nodded.

Zhan Lu was originally watching from the sidelines, but now he couldn't help but reddened his eyes when he saw his own Lang Jun's appearance.

"From today onwards, Zhan Lu, you remember to respect your son as Langjun. Ji Yan's movements were very light and slow, and when he combed Ji Yan's hair and put on the jade crown, he took a few steps back slightly, and couldn't help but smile.

"Zhan Lu paid a visit to Lang Jun. When Zhan Lu heard this, he immediately bowed to Ji Yan.

"It's not early, Daddy should rest as soon as possible. Ji Yan accepted Zhan Lu's salute, turned his back slightly to wipe away his tears, and then turned his head as usual, "Ah Miao, let me tell her...... Daddy, the child is gone. ”

"Go ahead. Ji Yan waved his hand to signal him to leave, but he fell to the ground as if all his strength had been exhausted, and a line of tears flowed down his eyes.

Ji Yan walked to the door and couldn't help but look back at his silent father, moved his lips, and finally didn't say anything, Chen Xu and Chen Xun came to help during the day, he thanked the two cousins for their righteousness, so they talked together for a while.

But I don't want Chen Xun to be a person who can't keep talking, plus he will enter Chang'an to contact the Shen family, and he is quite close to this aunt in his heart, so he will directly convey the words of Pingling Yu to Ji Yan, even if Chen Xu has a black face on the side, he has no scruples about his brother's color at all.

It was to wait for the busy day, he took the family to take care of it all around, and then went to Wanjuan Hall, ready to return to his father, that is, there is a suspicion of A-Niang's death, and it is indispensable to investigate, if you talk about grudges, that is, the Xiahou family in Jinzhou, but now the Xiahou family itself is difficult to protect, and they are far away in Jinzhou, and the whip is out of reach, I don't know if there is still a suspicion with others?

But before he could say anything, he heard a conversation between his aunt and his father.

In the past, he only knew that the deep love between Ah Dad and Ah Niang was rare in the family, but he didn't know that there were people in this world who were as affectionate as Xu! At this moment, he understood that no matter what his mother went to Huangquan, probably for his father, cutting his hair and draping it was probably his only choice, and he knew that Ah Niang committed suicide because of guilt, and Ah Dad might be.

As a child, it is necessary to relieve the sorrows of parents. From his croaking to the current young man, Daddy and Auntie have spent their hearts and minds for him, and now it should be him who in turn shares his father's worries, so he made up his mind to find out the results by himself and then inform his father, but for Ah Miao, he didn't know what to say for a while.
