Sima An, who was talked about by two very powerful women, was holding a fish that was held by banana leaves and grilled just right, and devoured it regardless of the image, as if this grilled fish with some ordinary seasonings was really not a delicious grilled fish, and it was a rare delicacy in the world. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info Xu Su saw his cheeks bulging and puffing, he felt very interesting, so he looked in his direction from time to time, Xu Hui saw this, and also looked at Xu Su's line of sight, and then showed a kind smile.

Sima An, who was a little afraid of women, was burying his head in eating, and suddenly found that there was no sound around, and when he looked up, he found that everyone was looking at him, and subconsciously swallowed a large piece of fish meat in his mouth, but he was stuck by the fish bones, his face was red, and he couldn't stop coughing.

Seeing this, Xu Su hurriedly took a small bottle of vinegar and handed it to Sima An, Sima An didn't realize who gave it to him, so he took the porcelain bottle directly, and poured a small bottle of vinegar in a big gulp, and was relieved to notice that his throat was not so blocked. He just wanted to return the porcelain vase to the other party, but after realizing that it was given by Xu Su, his face couldn't help but blush.

Liu Zan saw that Sima An was fine, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and said with some reproach, but in a gentle tone: "One person and one fish, this has been divided a long time ago, and no one will rob you." Brother Sima, you were too careless. ”

"You all look at me, I ......" Sima An whispered, glad for the first time that he was now blue and swollen, so that everyone could not see their embarrassment.

The reason why he eats so happily is not because the food is delicious, but because he feels that he is accepted by everyone and has many true friends, and his heart is too moved. But these words, with his introverted personality and some inferiority, are impossible for him to say, and he can only express them with his own actions.

Xu Hui smiled, and just as he wanted to say something, two maidservants wearing pearls and emeralds on their heads and dressed in splendid embroidery appeared from the peach forest path and walked towards them.

Yes, handmaiden.

No matter how expensive the clothes on the body are, the headdress on the body can't even afford to be used by the down-and-out scholars, and he has the demeanor of a family between his gestures. Because of the flower letter, they have gained the calmness and peace that they have experienced over the years, and they can't hide their temperament of low-eyed and pleasing eyes, living under others, and accustomed to obeying orders.

These two women, who were about twenty-five or sixteen years old, were not only handmaidens, but also handmaidens of very high-ranking and powerful people. Almost immediately, Xu Heng, Xu Hui and Liu Zan all made the same judgment.

I saw these two people walk to their five zhang away and stand still, and said respectfully: "The slave Tianxuan (Tianji) has seen Wei Langjun, Xu Langjun, Sima Langjun, Qi Langjun, Liu Langjun, and two girls, my master has invited you to go to the peach forest together to watch the peach blossoms." ”

Put Sima An's ranking in front of Qi Fang and Liu Zhan? Xu Hui and Xu Heng exchanged a look without a trace, the former stepped forward and was just about to say something, but Sima An suddenly said loudly: "We're not going!" ”

Hearing him say this, the two maidservants were fine, and Wei Li and Liu Zan both showed surprise: "Brother Sima, what's wrong?" ”

As soon as he heard his friend ask him, Sima An immediately deflated, and said, "No, it's nothing, anyway, they won't go, absolutely not!" ”

When he said the second half of the sentence, his voice suddenly rose up, and there was some sharpness and hysteria. Sensing that his emotions were wrong, Xu Hui said politely: "Thank you for your kindness, but we all respect the opinions of our friends, and we bother the two of you to help convey them." ”

Xu Huidu said it so clearly, although the two maidservants were in trouble, they had no reason to force it, so they could only go back and convey their opinions to the master. When the old woman heard this, she couldn't help but show a hint of surprise, and after a long time, she asked with some disbelief: "Zheng'er, how can An'er's child ...... Could it be that he knows his background? ”

The cold and glamorous woman supporting the old woman - Sima An's mother, one of the real power holders of the Sima family, Sima Zheng, the former princess of Luling, raised a sarcastic, with a hearty smile, raised her head slightly, like a phoenix, proud and confident, and indispensable: "Yes, as early as the age of ten, An'er knew her life experience. I said to him, If you want me to be a mother, go on living like this; If you want glory and wealth, go and recognize your father, don't want me as a mother. It was he who chose to continue to be Sima An, not that man! ”

"Nonsense, really nonsense!" Hearing Sima Zheng say this, the old woman didn't catch it in one breath and almost fainted. Seeing this, Sima Zheng hurriedly supported her, but was slapped away by the other party, and after some strength, he almost threw the crutches in his hand to greet his favorite granddaughter, "You are messing around like this, and you don't even have the chance to turn over at the end, what good can you get?" Yes? You...... How can you be worthy of your dead mother? You said? How can you be worthy of her? ”

Not to mention the chaos here, just talk about Xu Hui's side, the arrival of the two maidservants, disturbed the beautiful atmosphere of the dinner. Everyone saw that Sima An's mood was a little unstable, and they didn't have the heart to laugh anymore, and even Xu Heng kindly invited Liu Zan and Sima An to live in Xu's mansion, but they refused.

On the way back, Xu Huicai said to his brother and sister: "I remembered a rumor. ”

Xu Heng narrowed his eyes slightly, and said very firmly: "Something to do with Sima An?" ”

"Not bad." Xu Hui nodded slightly, recalling a secret rumor he had heard in his previous life when he was in Jiankang, without any basis, and not believed by everyone, and then compared Sima An's strong reaction, he suddenly felt that this news that was ridiculed by people was extremely credible, so he said, "According to legend, Sima An's ...... He is the son of King Luling. ”

Xu Heng frowned slightly, re-evaluating the value of interacting with Sima An, while Xu Su stopped, looked at Xu Hui in surprise, and said with some disbelief: "Lu...... Mrs. Sima and King Luling were separated for more than three years, and Sima An was born, saying that it was before he left...... I'm not right! ”

"Before leaving, King Luling and Mrs. Sima had fought a cold war for two or three years, and they didn't have a good face for each other, even if they were born a few months after that, it was impossible." Xu Hui thought about Sima An's weird attitude today, and analyzed it carefully, "The materials and accessories of those two handmaidens are quite expensive, and they can't be done by the second-class families of non-anointed rice and Hua Yu, and Sima Shi can afford to use them if they are included in Hua Yu." However, to be able to own a large peach forest in Yangzhai and set up such a strange rule that no one will be able to break without anyone being able to do it. In my opinion, the owner of this peach forest is the only surviving aunt of the saint, the eldest princess of Yangxia! ”

Hearing the words "Yangxia Eldest Princess", even if she was not familiar with the government and politics such as Xu Su, her thinking became clearer and affirmed her sister's judgment.

Although the eldest princess of Yangxia is the aunt of the saint, the two are almost the same age, she has a gentle temperament, and she has grown up with the saint, and the relationship between the two is very good. It's just that this rare virtuous and virtuous princess in the royal family, but her marriage is extremely unsmooth - one of her three husbands died of illness, not to mention that both were involved in the rebellion, and the other directly used her as a shield to plot a conspiracy, all of which were chopped up by her brother and nephew like chopping melons and vegetables.

After three marriages and more than ten years, the eldest princess of Yangxia is also downbeat about the world. She no longer looks for the so-called good fate, and wholeheartedly guards her only daughter to live a life, not to mention, she chooses thousands of choices, and her nephew looks at each other in every way, so she chooses the Lang Jun of the Sima family, and Xu Yi's daughter, who expected that her daughter would have a difficult birth, so she left Sima Zheng as a niece. And Sima Zheng's marriage is undoubtedly more unpleasant than his maternal grandmother and mother, because everyone knows that the so-called harmony and separation are just nice words, and they are afraid of the face of the eldest princess of Yangxia and the Sima family, in fact, Sima Zheng, the princess of Luling, was completely forced to leave the court by the king of Luling.

"When Sima An saw the maid of the eldest princess of Yangxia, his attitude was so abnormal, if he was the son of King Luling...... Could it be that he already knows his background, but he would rather be the illegitimate son of his unknown father, cut off his great future, and not want to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors? Xu Heng showed an expression that was a mixture of wonder, emotion, and admiration, obviously extremely impressed by Sima An's courage and choice.

They all know that the eldest princess of Yangxia is undoubtedly Sima Zheng's biggest backer, if Sima An can get into the eyes of the other party and get promoted, the future will naturally be infinitely bright. In this case, Sima An should have sharpened his head to please the eldest princess of Yangxia, how could he resist the servant girl she sent to the point of being almost rude? The only possibility would only be that the eldest princess of Yangxia insisted on making Sima An the prince of Luling, but Sima An refused, so she refused in every possible way.

Thinking of this, Xu Hui clenched the sleeve knife in his hand, and a thought flashed through his mind.

Even after the advent of the troubled times, everyone has a plan for the world and for the people, and after the power sits large, it is rare to set up an orthodox heir of the Great Qi royal family as a puppet emperor to occupy the title of "great righteousness". The royal family of Great Qi is all in Jiankang, only Sima An, if ......

This idea seems too risky, but if it is really successful...... Forget it, the current strength of the above party Xu clan has no way to influence the political competition at the highest level that these high-ranking lords can participate in. What's more, Sima An has a pure temperament and is sincere to them, but he is thinking about this kind of thing that will send him to death, which really shouldn't be.

After weighing whether to approach Sima An again in the future, Xu Hui, who had the pros and cons of the two options, was called by Xu Ze as soon as he returned to the Xu family's mansion.

As soon as she arrived at the study, before she had time to salute Xu Ze, Xu Ze waved her hand, signaling that she hadn't made those false gifts, and then sighed and said for a long time: "The news from today is coming back, Gu Zang...... Fallen. The Hu people originally planned to slaughter the city to set an example, but found that Guzang City, which originally had 60,000 households and more than 100,000 people, had less than 8,000 people left.
