Chapter 68

In fact, Mo Shu'an didn't want to say it so early, she wanted to take her time and make the relationship between the two people deeper, or wait for their first child to be born before speaking, but for some reason she suddenly said it today, and sure enough, many things are not planned, such as feelings.

Mo Shu'an pursed her lips tightly, looking at Qin Jingnan's eyes, only her slightly trembling hand revealed the tension in her heart, as if she was a young snow leopard who had been forced onto a cliff, afraid but did not retreat and admit defeat, even if she was in a desperate situation, she did not show the slightest weakness.

For some reason, Qin Jingnan remembered the squirrel he drew again, with a well-behaved appearance, but also flexible skills, a little cunning but coquettish.

Qin Jingnan never made promises lightly, he felt that a person, if he couldn't even fulfill his promise, was the most shameful, and ...... He never told Mo Shu'an, in fact, he felt that it was enough to have a hostess in the family, wouldn't there be loneliness if there were more women?

It's not like that, it's like his father, there are so many women in the harem, but those people have their own calculations in their hearts, and which one is really for him? Those loves and feelings are nothing but self-deception.

Qin Jingnan likes to see Mo Shu'an nervous like this, as if a ray of sunshine shines into the dark place in his heart, making him feel that he is cared for and cared for, even the tyranny and gloom that arise every time he thinks of his mother's death seem to have disappeared, but he is reluctant to be so nervous about Mo Shu'an, and sighed in his heart, I am afraid that he has fallen into Mo Shu'an's feelings as early as when he didn't know it, and this feeling is actually quite good.

"Okay."

Qin Jingnan had never been so glad that he could speak, and there were some things he wanted to say in person for Mo Shu'an to hear.

"It's just us."

Qin Jingnan wiped away Mo Shu'an's tears with his fingers, and then licked them, a little bitter and a little astringent, with an indescribable sweetness.

Mo Shu'an showed a smile with tears in her eyes, as bright as a spring flower, lowered her head and fell on the center of Qin Jingnan's eyebrows, "Okay." ”

Qin Jingnan hugged Mo Shu'an, gently stroked her back with his hand, let her lie on his body, hugged him with satisfaction and said, "Death and life are broad, talk to Zicheng." Hold the hand of the son, and grow old with the son. ”

In fact, Qin Jingnan felt that he would never say such a poem in his life, but today he said it so naturally.

Mo Shu'an closed her eyes and listened to Qin Jingnan's heartbeat, her tears couldn't stop falling, she didn't want to cry, she was obviously happy, but she couldn't help it, and she didn't want to endure it today.

"Hold the hand of the son, grow old with the son." Mo Shu'an whispered, "Qin Jingnan, one day we will all become gray-haired, and then we will watch the sunrise and sunset together." ”

Qin Jingnan couldn't wait to rub Mo Shu'an into his body, "When the time comes, we will walk through every piece of landscape of the Yong Dynasty together." ”

Get what you want.

No matter how much she will suffer in the future, or even have no chance to live to the moment when her hair is gray, Mo Shu'an feels that it is enough.

When Mo Shu'an fell asleep, Qin Jingnan got up and put on his clothes and left the room, returned to his courtyard and changed into formal clothes before going to the study, there was a middle-aged man drinking tea in the study, and Qin Jingnan saluted when he arrived.

The middle-aged man is none other than Liu Rusheng, who should have left the capital a long time ago.

Liu Rusheng stood up and said, "Your Highness." ”

Qin Jingnan smiled and made a gesture of please.

Liu Rusheng didn't move, but said, "Your Highness, please first." ”

Qin Jingnan nodded and sat down.

Liu Rusheng sat down in the position just now, "I wonder what His Highness summoned today?" ”

Qin Jingnan didn't come alone, he was followed by an attendant, the attendant looked down-to-earth and honest, Qin Jingnan said a few words to the attendant silently, and the attendant spoke, "Your Highness, I thought it was Mr. Liu who wanted to see me." ”

Liu Rusheng didn't refute when he heard this, but just laughed and said, "I know how His Highness persuaded my brother's stupid son-in-law not to participate in the imperial examination, but to voluntarily leave Beijing to do things for His Highness." ”

Qin Jingnan's eyes darkened, looked at Liu Rusheng, knocked on the table, and the attendant hurriedly prepared paper and pen, not the brush and rice paper used in front of Emperor Yan, but harder paper and charcoal, "Because the imperial examination is not the most important thing in his heart." ”

Liu Rusheng did not refute and said, "Your Highness should have guessed the purpose of my coming today. ”

Qin Jingnan looked at Liu Rusheng calmly, Liu Rusheng had to sigh in his heart, if this fifth prince is not dumb, I'm afraid ...... But if the five princes weren't dumb, they wouldn't be able to live now.

Liu Rusheng took out a letter from his sleeve, put it on the table, pushed it to Qin Jingnan's hand, and said, "This is the sincerity of my Liu family. ”

Qin Jingnan glanced at it, but he didn't mean to open it, he suddenly smiled and didn't use a pen or paper, and said, "It's better to wait for another ten days, I will invite Mr. Liu to watch a good show, and then Mr. Liu will decide." ”

Even Liu Rusheng's eyes widened the moment Qin Jingnan spoke, as if to make sure that the voice came from Qin Jingnan's mouth, and it took a long time to calm down the shock in his heart, "Your Highness has been hiding it for so long, why did you choose to speak in front of me today, aren't you afraid that Your Highness will betray Your Highness?" ”

"Because you're smart." Qin Jingnan is really not afraid, Liu Rusheng is sitting here today, which means that he has no other choice, prince? The Liu family will never choose the prince, because the prince is now a target, he has not participated in the government at such an age, and what he is doing is just some small ways, the prince still does not understand that his position is proudly maintained, but Emperor Yan wants to play a balance hand, or deliberately pushed him out, Emperor Yan is to favor the concubine and the eighth prince, and even named the eighth prince Zuo, but Emperor Yan will not make the eighth prince the prince, or will not make Qin Zuo the prince before he will die.

This is precisely because Emperor Yan likes this son.

Emperor Yan is already old, so old that he feels the threat of his son, he raises Qin Zuo's position too high, and too many people know that he likes Qin Zuo, if Qin Zuo becomes the prince, then the ministers in the court will naturally justifiably support the crown prince, and take the crown prince as the head of the horse, doesn't this threaten Emperor Yan's own position?

When the crown prince and the eighth prince were young, Emperor Yan naturally did not have such worries, but when his son grew up, he became more and more powerless, how could Emperor Yan not think about it.

Earlier, if the prince was not abolished, Emperor Yan considered more for the stability of the court, and later did not abolish the prince and even protected the prince, but did not let the prince interfere in the government affairs, but it was just for the sake of balance.

The crown prince is the prince of the Yong Dynasty, and the eighth prince is the favorite son of Emperor Yan, who does the minister in the court support? Although the power of the dragon is tempting, the risks are well known to everyone, and it is inevitable to hesitate when doing things, and no matter who they want to support, they need to curry favor with Emperor Yan.

Is it true that no one has noticed this hand played by Emperor Yan? It's impossible, but there's no way to find it.

Just like the Liu family, I'm afraid that I have long been aware of Emperor Yan's intentions, and even secretly observed the prince and the eighth prince for a long time, but in the end he had no choice but to come to Qin Jingnan to show goodwill, the prince was in the game, but he couldn't make up his mind to break the kettle, he could only struggle in this game, the eighth prince didn't know that he was already in the bureau, and his temperament was tyrannical and vicious, he wouldn't be grateful to the Liu family for how much effort he made to help him, he would only feel that the Liu family should support him with the strength of the whole clan, if it failed, it was the fault of others.

In the final analysis, the Liu family has no choice, and they can't even afford not to choose.

The situation of the Liu family seems to be detached, but it is like a pine and cypress on the edge of the cliff, and now the Liu family can no longer be allowed to escape.

Qin Jingnan asked, "I think that not only the prince's people have looked for the Liu family, but also the people of the eighth prince's family, right?" ”

Liu Rusheng only felt that the whole person had been seen through, although he was older than Qin Jingnan, but Qin Jingnan's eyes were ...... It reminded him of his deceased grandfather.

"It's better to wait ten days." In fact, the Liu family has long been inclined, but it's a pity that Qin Jingnan wants more than just a little help in secret, "Mr. come and tell me again, the Liu family's decision." ”

Liu Rusheng sighed in his heart, he thought that he had already looked up to Qin Jingnan, but now he found that he still looked down on Qin Jingnan too much, ten days? I'm afraid that there will be some changes in the court, "Your Highness, there is a question below. ”

Qin Jingnan nodded, in fact, he still didn't like to talk to strangers, he could say so much today, one was to win over the Liu family, and the other was for Mo Junting's sake.

"What would His Highness do if he was in the position of the crown prince?" Liu Rusheng looked at Qin Jingnan and asked in a deep voice.

Qin Jingnan's eyes narrowed, and he said, "The first step is to ask yourself to give up the crown prince." "Sometimes retreating is a solution, even a threat.

As long as Emperor Yan needs to balance the court, the position of the crown prince will not be shaken, the first step is out, and the rest of the things will be dealt with according to Emperor Yan.

Cooking oil on fire without knowing it.

If Emperor Yan does not allow it, then he can go one step further and ask to participate in the court politics, the prince himself has such power, and what he wants must rely on his own strength to seize it, like the prince is as hesitant as the prince? Hoping for Emperor Yan's alms? Qin Jingnan felt particularly ridiculous.

What is Gu, put all the insects in one box and fight, and the last one who survives is Gu.

The Imperial City is such a box, only the last winner can sit on the throne, what means are used? How humiliating you were before you got the throne, the moment you reached the top, all disappeared, and the winner had the last laugh.

Even if the prince was ruthless, directly assassinated Emperor Yan, and then ascended the throne as the prince, Qin Jingnan also praised and admired, but unfortunately the prince hated Emperor Yan, but he wanted to curry favor with Emperor Yan, but the prince did the small way, and ignored the convenience brought to him by his identity, but unfortunately the prince has not understood it so far, but it is too late now.

Emperor Yan is a Ming monarch in political affairs, the Yong Dynasty is peaceful and peaceful, and he is even more step-by-step in terms of power, but unfortunately he is confused in private matters, unless this matter involves his own safety, he will wake up.

It's like the concubine hiding her pregnancy, why did Emperor Yan suddenly react so much? That's because Emperor Yan realized that the imperial doctor dared to help the concubine conceal it, what if he was sick and needed to use the imperial doctor? The life and death of others cannot make Emperor Yan awaken, only when it comes to himself, Emperor Yan is old, so he becomes suspicious and has no self-confidence.

The crown prince and the eighth prince......

Qin Jingnan's goal from the beginning was very simple, to live, to live well, how to live well?

Naturally, sit on the throne!
