At some point, the piano-playing and chanting men quietly retreated. In the octagonal pavilion with palace lanterns, there are only three handsome young men with different styles left. After the older one drank some buttermilk, he still looked like he was smiling; The young man's face was blue and white for a while, and his face was full of helplessness; The rest of the one rolled his eyes curiously, looking at this, looking at that, with a look of inquiry on his face.

"Senior brother treats me very well." After a short time, Du Chongfeng re-made a light and light appearance, "In this case, why not become the son-in-law of the Yang family?" I am a Jingzhao Du side branch orphan, if he had not been taken care of by the Yang family, how could he have today? Even if it's not for anything else, for this kindness, you should do your best to repay the Hongnong County Mansion. What's more, marrying the daughter of Hongnong Yang's lineage can be regarded as my high climbing. ”

Hearing this, the prince smiled with his palms, as if he was very moved: "I know that Du Shishilang has always been such a person who values love and righteousness!" My cousin really didn't look at the wrong person! I can't say that in another year or two, you will be able to win the first place, and then marry a beautiful woman in style! When the time comes, your uncle will plan for you, and your cousin will plan for you, so why worry about not being able to rise to the top in the future?! Tsk, glory and wealth, full of children and grandchildren, the fate that no matter how many people can't ask for, let Shishilang go, it's really enviable. ”

He said envy in his mouth, but there was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes, how could Du Chongfeng not see it?

This person was obviously mocking him: he had obviously avoided Yang Banniang before, how could he suddenly change his temper and accept another marriage that was not as good as before? Moreover, the love of children is still secondary, and the ambition of the Yang family, which has swelled beyond the limit, is the most he avoids. In just a short period of time, the Hongnong County Mansion dedicated to his daughter is becoming more and more popular, and it is too late for him to hide, how can he take the initiative to get involved in the changes? !

Thinking of this, Du Chongfeng Du Shishilang's heart was suffocated-it was clear that he was a blood brother, and he was also a dignified Langya Wang, why was this person completely different from the prince? If the prince is changed, even in the face of strangers, he will not be so aggressive. What made him most unwilling was that he knew that these words were just a method of agitation, but he had to admit that it was indeed impossible for him to compromise lightly in his heart.

"The Yang family?" The King of Tianshui County blinked, and finally grasped the key point, "It turns out that you are all favored by Yang Shijing?" Tsk, this old man has a good eye, and he knows how to strike first. It's a pity that the family likes to be bragged at, and they don't know how many twists and turns are hidden in their hearts, which is really troublesome. Moreover, they are also the enemies of Yue Niang, and the enemies of Yue Niang are the enemies of me and my brother. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at the prince: "Do you want to join the enemy?" Does my brother know about this? Whether you offend the Yang family or not, you must refuse that Yang Shijing! Moreover, didn't my uncle promise to be a matchmaker for you and find a clan girl to marry you? Our county lord of the Li family is not a hundred times better than the concubine of their Yang family?! ”

The prince Xian Meifeng moved: "Don't worry, the Li family is naturally countless times better than those greedy people in the Hongnong County Mansion. If I want to marry, I will definitely only marry the Li family who is happy. The Li family he was referring to was, of course, only the king of Xin'an County. didn't mention any county lord, nor did he mention the matter of the saint being a matchmaker, and the king of Tianshui couldn't hear anything.

Li Jing was extremely satisfied with his reaction and grinned. Don't say it's him, even Du Chongfeng can't think of going elsewhere. He originally thought that the matter of the saint being a matchmaker that Wang Zixian had said before was false, but it was just a deception to him, but he didn't expect it to be true. In this way, he is the only one who urgently needs to get rid of the marriage of the Yang family......

However, it was not for them that Wang Zixian said just now, but for Li Hui, who was slowly approaching. With his extraordinary ear, he had already heard the familiar footsteps approaching, so he said such a confessional word. The people on the side couldn't hear the affection in it, how could Li Hui not feel it?

King Xin'anjun's originally slightly solemn expression couldn't help but ease a little, glanced at the prince, and sat down beside him with a smile. Without waiting for him to make an inquiry, Li Jing took the initiative to praise the prince for offering a few words, and looked at Du Chongfeng with a sigh, with a look of regret on his face: "I thought you were an understanding person, but I didn't expect you to be so confused, and you didn't even understand the truth of 'different ways do not conspire with each other'." It's a pity, it's a pity, I still think you're an interesting person. Alas, it will not be the enemy in the future. ”

"......" Du Chongfeng was speechless again. How could he not understand such a truth? It's just that he has too many concerns, and his heart is full of contradictions. Moreover, Yang Banniang's incident was clearly Yang Qian using him to squeeze the prince's offering, not really thinking about him, so he was so disgusted at the time. But when it comes to other things, the Yang family does only have kindness to him, if he doesn't reciprocate one or two-

Seeing that he was silent, Li Jing felt more and more unhappy: "Okay, the one who should repay the favor should repay the favor, and the one who should take revenge." In order to carry out the kindness of calculation, you will take your whole life on it, and you think it is worth it! Hmph, but in the future, you'll be better than others, and you'll be a ghost! ”

"...... "King of Tianshui, is it appropriate for you to show hostility in front of an "enemy" so bluntly? Du Chongfeng let out a long sigh, but suddenly found that from the time he thought about his predicament until now, no one had ever said to him so bluntly - what can be done and what cannot be done. Even if some people saw the conflict in his heart, they just watched silently, as if they didn't care about his embarrassment.

The king of Tianshui was the first person to "instruct" him so frankly. Even if what he said was slightly biased, it was not without his consideration. Perhaps, only a person with such a temperament would say something that can be called "heart-to-heart" to an unfamiliar person. Don't worry about anything else, just tell the truth.

"Du Shishilang." Seeing that he pondered for a long time, Li Hui smiled unhurriedly, "The Hongnong County Mansion is indeed kind to you, and you have the heart to repay them, and we can all understand it." Not to mention whether when they give their kindness, it is for the sake of repaying it in the future; Not to mention that even if they don't show kindness, with your own talent, can you solve the dilemma at that time - it's just that I want to ask you, is there only one way to repay kindness in the whole world? Is there only one option for the tiger? Do you have only one way to cut yourself off? ”

Du Chongfeng was shocked, and his expression became complicated. And Li Jing wasted no time in adding: "Promising this kind of thing with one's body, it is a good story for women to do it, and men to do it...... Gee. ”

Du Chongfeng's face changed again, and although Li Hui and Wang Zixian felt that it was very good for him to lose no time in taking the words, the truth of what he said was quite debatable. There are more men in the world who promise each other to repay their gratitude, and there are indeed many who have written good stories. However, when he said it as a matter of course, it seemed to be a little more true.

Seeing that Du Chongfeng had been shaken, Li Hui said: "Knowing that they are wrong, knowing that they are obsessed, what will happen in the future, you don't dissuade and don't mention it, but you want to fuel their ambitions, is this what a real gentleman should do?" A gentleman has something to do and something not to do. If you don't persuade you, it's because you can't persuade you; If you don't help, you shouldn't help. That's all. Otherwise, what if you don't mention it just by affecting yourself, what if it harms your family? ”

For Du Chongfeng, the only person he misses in this world is probably the family of his uncle and aunt who raised him. He lowered his eyes, and after a long time, he sighed again: "What do you want me to do?" I'm not actually a gentleman, and I'm not even a good person, far less frank and sincere than Zimu. If I don't persuade me, not only because I can't persuade me, but also because I want to protect myself, I don't want my family to be affected. Not helping is also selfish, not for the sake of ethics. ”

He didn't say what he wouldn't do, but he implied that with his temperament, many things couldn't be done. Li Hui and Wang Zixian naturally understood it very clearly, but Li Jing said: "If you are lost, you will be good." Brother is so kind-hearted, he will never make you too embarrassed. Moreover, you promised not to be a good friend. Fang Cai's singing and the implied sense of confidant made him really want to make this friend.

So, the king of Tianshui looked at the king of Xin'an with a look of trust: "Brother, what do you say?" ”

"......" Li Hui curled the corners of his mouth, "Of course, since we are friends, we will naturally not force you." "As for when it can be transformed from superficial affection to true friendship, it is difficult to say, and it depends on Du Chongfeng's behavior in the future. For now, it is enough to maintain the current contacts.

Wang Zixian smiled and continued: "There is only one thing that needs to bother you to do at the moment. From time to time, I would mention in front of my cousin that my uncle valued me, or I could casually praise me. In addition, if you have the opportunity, you might as well mention the benefits of me marrying the daughter of the Pei family in Hedong. The more benefits he receives, and the more praise he receives, the more likely Yang Qian will be able to give up. He doesn't have to think about it, he will end this marriage of the Pei family in Hedong for him. Of course, it is difficult to say whether Yang Shangshu will be angry because of this.

Du Chongfeng was stunned, as if he didn't expect his request to be so simple: "...... Don't you have a saint as a matchmaker? Why worry about this marriage again? ”

"Just in case." Wang Zixian replied very smoothly.

"......" Du Chongfeng was silent for a long time, and then said, "Then how can I avoid this marriage?" ”

Hearing this, the prince did not hide his "surprise": "The Yang family's marriage to a daughter must only be the icing on the cake, and he will never think about what to give charcoal in the snow." If you gradually become obscure from the public, show no talent, and delay in taking the tribute examination, how can your uncle be willing to marry his daughter to you? Moreover, my cousin is surrounded by so many talented people, seeing that you are useless, he will not let you give advice when the time comes, isn't it just right to avoid the future? ”

"That's right, don't you know how to hide it?" The king of Tianshui County also followed the count.

"......" Du Chongfeng only felt that the contempt he had never suffered for more than ten years had been endured overnight today. Didn't he ever think about hiding it?! But there are also ways and opportunities to hide clumsiness, if you do it to show traces, it is better to do nothing well!

Li Hui suddenly felt that he should sympathize with Du Shishilang. In addition, no one expected that when Wang Zixian and Li Jing cooperated, the lethality would be so great.
