If it were someone else and was treated like this by Zhao Jinyan, he would naturally only be sincerely afraid, and he would definitely kneel in a panic.

But Xia Guogong didn't have such a feeling at all, on the contrary, he seemed to be really drunk, and he was even a little sleepy at this time, and after kneeling like this for a while, Xia Guogong's back completely collapsed, and gradually even became a kneeling posture.

Zhao Jinyan looked coldly at Xia Guogong kneeling so disrespectfully, and when his upper and lower eyelids were almost together, he suddenly "touched" the lid of the teacup in his hand into the cup.

Xia Guogong was so shocked that he trembled, but Zhao Jinyan obviously didn't want to appease the other party, and he put the tea cup with the lid closed directly on the table at hand. Xia Guogong this time, his mind was much clearer, and his body was not upright, he bowed his waist deeply, and hurriedly begged for mercy: "Weichen knows his mistake, it is Weichen who has no form, and the emperor forgives his sin!" ”

Xia Guogong's body has been dogs and horses because of all these years, and he is surrounded by wine every day, and he is actually a little bloated, and he naturally has no pitiful appearance when he makes this look, but it is a little hateful, and Zhao Jinyan looks at him like this, in fact, he can't look down on him for half a point, but the person in front of him is Fu Hui's father, Zhao Jinyan looks at it like this, his heart is still uncomfortable, and he can't help but sigh heavily in his heart.

"Okay, uncle, get up and sit down, I don't blame you."

This time, Zhao Jinyan didn't intend to teach Xia Jue a lesson, so he didn't embarrass him anymore, so he made a voice to get people up.

Wei Lin, who was standing behind Zhao Jinyan, came over with a smile to help Xia Guogong, who was trembling because of the vanity, after Zhao Jinyan spoke, he helped the person to the edge of the chair, and after holding the person on the chair and pressing it down, he smiled a little yin and yang, gritted his teeth and said: "Grandpa Guo, you sit firmly, don't fall!" ”

Xia Jue was so frightened by Wei Lin's seemingly threatening words that she shrank her head.

Although Zhao Jinyan had no opinion on Wei Lin's approach, and even supported it very much, he was afraid of scaring people, so Zhao Jinyan didn't let Wei Lin continue like this, and called Wei Lin back.

Then, Zhao Jinyan's gaze fell on Xia Guogong, who lowered his head and seemed to be frightened, frowned and said softly: "Uncle, in a few days, it will be Fu Yuan's birthday......

"Yes, yes, yes."

Xia Jue hurriedly responded when he heard this, but the look on his face didn't seem to be the same thing at all, as if he didn't hear what Zhao Jinyan said at all, and of course he didn't know anything about the birthday of Fu Yuan mentioned by Zhao Jinyan.

And Zhao Jinyan looked at Xia Jue like this, but his brows wrinkled even deeper.

One of his hands resting on the table couldn't help but clench into a fist, but he still patiently said to Xia Jue: "This year is the year of Fuyuan, and her birthday this year is particularly important, so I hope that my uncle can also serve snacks." ”

Zhao Jinyan's mention of these words did not bring any effect to Xia Jue, he just looked at Zhao Jinyan in confusion for a while, but suddenly seemed to suddenly realize, and a smile appeared on his face, he said softly to Zhao Jinyan with a shy smile: "Weichen remembers, isn't Furui's birthday banquet this year going to be held in the palace, do you need Weichen to do anything?" ”

Zhao Jinyan just said in a deep voice: "I don't need my uncle to do too much, I just need that at this year's funeral ceremony, my uncle can take on the responsibility of being a father." ”

"The emperor is joking!"

At this time, Xia Jue obviously faded a lot of fear of Zhao Jinyan, his body was a little paralyzed and lay on the chair, looking at Zhao Jinyan and said with a smile: "The minister has never attended the ceremony, how do you know what to do and what not to do at the ceremony, if the emperor finds someone to specifically remind me, lest I make mistakes." ”

What Xia Jue said was really a bit of a scoundrel, he just knew what Zhao Jinyan didn't dare to do to him, or what to do with him, so he let go of his courage and was no longer so jealous and cautious.

Wei Lin looked at Xia Jue like this from behind, he was really a little shocked, he always felt that he was quite thick-skinned sometimes, and he was indeed a bit of a scoundrel, but compared to the Xia Guogong in front of him, it was really a small thing.

Wei Lin couldn't help but look at Zhao Jinyan, Zhao Jinyan's temperament, he also understands, this person is actually very unsociable, let alone able to deal with these things, today he will come to this Xia Guogong Mansion to find Xia Jue, in fact, it is already a big breakthrough for himself, the situation in front of him, it is estimated that he can only be helpless!

Wei Lin thought about it, but he was still ready to let him go.

It's just that before Wei Lin could speak, Zhao Jinyan suddenly said in an indifferent voice at this time: "Uncle, don't worry, that day, I will naturally find a good person to mention my uncle!" ”

Xia Jue didn't expect Zhao Jinyan to follow his words, his eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at Zhao Jinyan in disbelief, but soon, he regained his previous appearance, and only said lazily: "What does the emperor mean by this?" It's to find someone to spy on Weichen, and it's just making people laugh out of their big teeth when they say it, and I, as a father, participate in my daughter's ceremony, and I still need to be monitored......"

Xia Jue's words did not fall, but the corners of Zhao Jinyan's mouth suddenly hung a sneer, he looked at Xia Jue with the same cold eyes, and slowly spoke: "Uncle is right, I am indeed looking for someone to spy on you, but you and I don't talk about this matter, who can know, even if outsiders know, it is much better than my uncle doing something unclear at the birthday ceremony!" ”

Zhao Jinyan spoke, directly and sharply, Xia Jue was stunned for a moment, and his face was completely frozen.

At this time, Zhao Jinyan sneered again, his eyes were still staring at Xia Jue coldly, and he said calmly: "Uncle is now, I'm afraid I don't care about my knighthood at all...... If I threaten my uncle with these things, I'm afraid it's useless. ”

"The emperor laughed, I will eat, drink and have fun in the future, can I not rely on the honor that the royal family gave me?"

Xia Jue smiled a little weirdly, and said slowly with mockery on the corner of his mouth.

Zhao Jinyan was not annoyed by Xia Jue's words, and said in a calm tone: "I originally thought about whether it would work if I threatened you with your concubine or concubine, but thinking about the death of the noble man in the palace and the mysterious death of the two concubines in my aunt's mansion for my uncle, it seems that I am only angry than sad, and my uncle still lives how he should live, and it doesn't have any impact at all......

"What does the emperor say about this!"

The mocking smile on Xia Jue's face was put away, slightly uncomfortable.

Zhao Jinyan didn't stop, only continued: "I thought about it, there should always be something, my uncle cares about it, and my uncle is willing to care, although the Xia family has fallen, but the plaque of this Xia Guogong is still hanging at the door, the Xia family has been loyal to the martyrs for generations, the descendants of the Xia family, and now the only one who is close to my aunt is the second room of the Xia family!" I remember that although my uncle's younger brother did not have any outstanding appearance in court politics, he was also decent and very safe, and he finally protected the last bit of reputation of the Xia family......"

As Zhao Jinyan's words came out one by one, Xia Jue finally stopped looking like Fang Cai, his body slowly sat upright, although there was still wine floating on his face, but his demeanor was very serious and strict, and his eyes were also sharp.

That look is very different from Fang Cai, judging two people.

After Zhao Jinyan finished saying those words, he didn't say anything, just looked at Xia Jue.

The two looked at each other for a long time, and finally Xia Jue couldn't hold his breath first, he sighed softly, and said with a wry smile: "If the emperor has any orders, Weichen will do it, don't bother the emperor so much!" ”

Xia Jue slowly stretched out his hand to cover his face, his body was in a ball, and his voice was a little sad: "I, the unscrupulous descendant of the Xia family, if I can't even maintain the last bit of dignity of the Xia family, I will go to the underworld in the future, and I will have no face to face the ancestors and ancestors!" ”

He seemed to be much older, and his body couldn't stop trembling, looking at it, even Wei Lin who was present couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for him.

Although Wei Lin is still young, he is not like those people who don't know the inside story, blindly thinking that Xia Jue is a useless wine bag and rice bag, and he doesn't think that Xia Jue's current situation is all caused by himself.

In fact, to say that it is more emotional, although Xia Jue is wrong, the fault is that he loves the wrong person, and he is also wrong because he is too young and vigorous, and it is easy to trust people......

If you think about it, you're actually a poor person.

Wei Lin sympathizes with Xia Jue, but Zhao Jinyan is still very calm at this time, Xia Jue is indeed pitiful, but does Fleur deserve it?

Zhao Jinyan thought of Fu Yuan's treatment over the years, and he couldn't soften Xia Jue in his heart.

"I don't care what happened between you and your aunt, and I don't care what Fleur's background means to my uncle. But I only saw that Fleur had a deep admiration for you, and I only saw what Uncle you had made Fleur suffer over the years. ”

"In the final analysis, uncle, you feel innocent, feel that you are suffering, but Fleur she has never done anything wrong, today I just want to tell my uncle one thing, the past, I can no longer manage, and I don't care, but in the future, I don't want Fleur to be treated like that again, if my uncle really doesn't want to recognize Fleur as a daughter, then just be better, don't let Fleur still have hope in her heart, but hurt her again and again."

Zhao Jinyan slowly stood up from his seat, as if he wanted to leave, but when he passed by Xia Jue's side, he stopped and said: "I know that my uncle will think that I am troublesome, and I know that this time my uncle will feel that I am oppressing people with power, but I don't mind being thought of by my uncle like this, if I can make Fu Hui happy with my power, then I don't mind being such a villain!" ”

Xia Jue didn't speak, only when Zhao Jinyan finally walked to the door, he said softly: "Furui's birthday ceremony, Weichen will go to participate, and he will definitely not do anything to hurt Furui." ”

"In the past, it was me, the father...... I'm sorry for her. ”

In the last four words, Xia Jue said very lightly, very lightly, and the light was almost inaudible.
