Xiao Shiji was inexplicable and didn't understand what Prince Yi meant.

What is the relationship between Xu Wenjing's crime and the Turks in Mobei?

Could it be that Xu Wenjing collaborated with the enemy?!

Xiao Shiji kept thinking about this question all the way.

When changing clothes behind the screen, Xiao Shiji suddenly thought of this possibility.

But I feel that there is a problem.

If he collaborates with the enemy, he will either be a border general or an important minister in the court, Xu Wenjing will not rely on either side, even if he wants to cooperate with the enemy, the Turks may not take him seriously.

What bargaining chips does Xu Wenjing have, is it worthy of the favor of the Turks? At the same time, what about being jealous of His Majesty?

Xiao Shiji absentmindedly took the robe handed over by Du Hengshuang and changed it, walked out from behind the screen, remembered Mu Yelai's words, and asked Du Hengshuang, "Are you going to Xu Shangshu's Mansion today?" ”

Du Hengshuang nodded, "Xu Shangshu's chrysanthemum banquet is today." However, we didn't see the chrysanthemums. Du Hengshuang thought about today's incident in the Xu family, and smiled a little mockingly.

Xiao Shiji didn't ignore the smile on Du Hengshuang's lips, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" Is there something wrong? ”

Du Hengshuang told Mrs. Xu about her late arrival today.

“…… It was originally a chrysanthemum banquet for her, but she was able to make everyone wait for her for two hours, and the crown princess and Prince Yi were all sitting and waiting there. You say, what kind of confidence does she have to let everyone wait for her there? This momentum is simply catching up with the original Wan Guifei. Du Hengshuang pursed his lips and gave Xiao Shi a full chest.

Xiao Shiji lowered his head and pecked Du Hengshuang on his face. Feeling like congealed face, I couldn't help but stretch out my arms to hug her, press against the wall of the inner room, and kiss her on the lips.

Her lips are soft and sweet, like drinking fine wine, which makes Siu Shihe intoxicated.

The big hand unconsciously stroked Du Hengshuang's towering chest and kneaded it.

Du Hengshuang woke up suddenly, pushed Xiao Shihe away, and said angrily: "In broad daylight, you can't help it?" ”

Xiao Shiji looked at Du Hengshuang's coquettish face and grabbed her hand. Kissed it on the lips. smiled: "I can't help it when I see you, what do you say?" - It's all your fault, you were born so good-looking......"

Du Hengshuang pursed his lips and smiled, and pulled his hand out of Xiao Shihe's hand. Took a bite out of him. "It's the father of three children. It's not in shape yet. If the children see it, I'll see where your face goes. ”

Xiao Shiji smiled slightly and took Du Hengshuang's hand. "Let's go for dinner." Take her out with you.

The maid who was waiting in the outhouse smiled secretly when she saw the Hou Ye and his wife coming out hand in hand.

Hou Ye and Mrs. have a good relationship, and of course, they are subordinates, and their waists are straighter.

The two of them came to the front of the hall and sat down.

As before, Xiao Shiji sat between Brother Ping and Sister An, and Du Hengshuang took Brother Yang from the nurse's arms and sat next to Sister An.

"Brother Ping, eat this." Xiao Shiji gave him a bright shrimp grill. It is grilled by the chef one by one over an open flame, and a thin layer of butter is smeared on the outside, and the grilled shrimp are translucent, moist and tender, and very hot.

Xiao Shi and Zhilu Daoping brother love to eat this dish.

Brother Ping hurriedly said: "Dad, you can eat too." Stretched out his chopsticks and pinched a shrimp brink for Xiao Shiji.

Sister An wrinkled her little nose, raised her head and said to Xiao Shihe's long voice: "Dad——, I want it too." ”

Xiao Shiji said: "Sister An, the last time I gave you the shrimp grill, you spit it out after you took a bite, and Daddy still remembers it." ”

Sister An stuck out her tongue in embarrassment, lowered her head and ate a big mouthful of rice.

Du Hengshuang frowned and said, "Sister An, if you don't like to eat, don't eat it." Don't fight with others, eat what you don't like. When the time comes, I can't eat it and spit it out, it's really a waste of things. You have to know that many people outside are not well fed or warm, and they are not living well without you......"

Xiao Shiji is now a loving father, and Du Hengshuang has no choice but to be a strict mother.

Sister An is now more afraid of Du Hengshuang, and when she heard what she said, she nodded again and again, admitting her mistake: "Mother, I won't do this anymore." ”

Xiao Shiji smiled and scooped a bowl of white dragon soup for her, and said, "It's good to know your mistakes." If you know your mistakes, you can change them, and you can do good. Come, this is what Sister An likes to eat, and my father and mother know it. "The white dragon soup is made of osmanthus fish with thorns, crushed to make fish balls, added a little minced longan meat, and wrapped it in starch, which is sweet and soft and glutinous, and Sister An loves to eat it very much.

Brother Ping and Sister An looked at each other and smiled, ate happily, and soon finished their dinner, and happily said to Xiao Shiji: "Dad, are you going to tell us a story tonight?" ”

Xiao Shiji was at home for a while, and Du Hengshuang asked him to accompany Brother Ping and Sister An more in order not to let him have too much free time.

As long as he is at home, he takes Brother Ping and Sister An to the mountains in the backyard to climb the mountain and play, or take a boat in the small river bay in the backyard. Sometimes, I also took my two children to practice riding and archery, and also taught them boxing.

In the evening, he would accompany the two children to dinner and bathe, and then when they went to bed, he would tell them little stories and put them to sleep.

This arrangement not only kept Xiao Shiji busy, but also greatly shortened the distance between him and his two children.

For men, they have not experienced a woman's pregnancy in October, and their relationship with the child will not be like that of a woman, and they love it very much from the day the child is born.

A man's feelings for his children still have to be cultivated in his daily life and in the hard work he has paid for his children.

If there is a child who is brought up by his own hands, for this man, the position in his heart is definitely different.

This kind of relationship has nothing to do with blood.

Men's feelings for their blood relatives and children are not as solid as women think.

So as the saying goes, if there is a stepmother, there is a stepfather.

Du Hengshuang took this into account and intended to let Xiao Shiji get along with the children more.

Xiao Shiji also found that his feelings for his two children were getting deeper and deeper.

In the past, they were their own children and their own responsibility.

Now it's beyond responsibility. There is an extra layer of affection.

The children who have been brought by themselves are just different.

Xiao Shihe responded with a smile and said, "You go outside to play for a while to eliminate food, and after an hour, Dad will bathe you, and then rest with you." ”

Brother Ping and Sister An cheered and ran to the courtyard outside to play. Their adoptive mother and maid hurriedly followed.

Ou Yangniang also secretly asked Du Hengshuang if it would be bad to do this......

After all, in the big families she has seen, the male owners will not take care of the children themselves. They are to uphold their dignity as fathers in front of their children.

Du Hengshuang smiled and comforted Ou Yangniang. Reassure her. He also asked her rhetorically, what's wrong with doing this? Xiao Shiji can pass the time and strengthen the relationship between father and son, why not?

Ou Yangniang thought about it. found that he couldn't say Du Hengshuang. He laughed too. Don't worry about that.

At this time, Ou Yangniang stood behind Du Hengshuang and watched her whispering to Xiao Shihe with satisfaction, very happy. - She has a raised child in one hand. Finally able to take charge on my own.

For her, Du Hengshuang's good life is more important than anything else.

Du Hengshuang instructed the maid behind him: "You should also go down to eat." There's no need to wait here. When we're done, you'll just clean up the table. ”

In the main courtyard of the Pillar Marquis Mansion, it has always been like this.

Let the two children finish eating first, and then Du Hengshuang and Xiao Shihe eat together, and at the same time, the maid and wife who served them also went down to eat, giving the couple a little space to be alone.

That's how they have behaved since Xiao Shihe and Fu Xian were at home.

The maid in the main courtyard is of course grateful for this. Because at this time, it is the time to eat. In the past, they had to finish eating before they could eat, and they were often so hungry that they were close to their backs. It's good now, they can eat at their normal meals, they don't have to yell and rush for their lives, and they can eat hot soup and hot dishes at the same time.

The maid and the maid retreated in twos and threes, leaving Xiao Shiji and Du Hengshuang to sit and eat in the hall that suddenly became empty.

Xiao Shiji took a sip of soup and asked Du Hengshuang, "How is Xue'er doing?" It's been a long time since I've seen her. He actually asked about Du Hengshuang's sister Du Hengxue.

Du Hengshuang knew that Xiao Shi and asked Du Hengxue, but he was actually asking Du Nazi, the king of Haixi, that is, Du Hengshuang and Du Hengxue's father Du Xiancheng.

"A while ago, King Haixi was not in good health, and my sister was concentrating on treating him. You know that King Haixi injured his body at sea in his early years, and now he has a seizure, which is also a small symptom. Du Hengshuang said with a light smile, bowing his head and drinking his longan bird's nest porridge.

Xiao Shiji wanted to ask Du Xiancheng about something, and when he heard this, he hurriedly said: "King Haixi is sick?" Why don't we go and see the prince tomorrow? ”

Du Hengshuang was also quite worried about Du Xiancheng's body, but he was worried about getting into trouble, so he hesitated and said, "...... Not good. It's not appropriate for us to go too hard with the King of Haixi. ”

Du Hengxue was accepted as a righteous daughter by the king of Haixi, which is eye-catching enough. If Du Hengshuang and Xiao Shiji still make up, she is afraid of arousing the suspicion of those who have a heart.

If Du Xiancheng's identity is exposed, it will be a crime of deception.

"For what?" Xiao Shiji was a little disapproving, and said with a smile: "Don't we stammer with the prince?" Why do you have to do it so highly? Everybody understands that. If we don't get together, we will attract attention. ”

Du Hengshuang thought about it, but was still reluctant, "This ...... Let's talk about it later. Her Majesty ......" She looked around, although the maid and the maid had already gone down, she still looked at it very carefully, and then lowered her voice and said: "Your Majesty is small-minded, and you can't hide a little." Besides, don't you see that even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is now dormant. The prince did not see any of the people who went to the East Palace to pay respects. Those people ran into a wall in front of the prince, and then turned to see Prince Yi, hoping to get their favor and be able to ascend to the sky in one step. ”

Xiao Shiji listened, seemed to remember something, and tilted his head to look at Du Hengshuang, "Go on." ”

Du Hengshuang was a little embarrassed when he saw Xiao Shihe so solemn, and said, "This is also my little knowledge." For example, in this backyard, I am the main mother who presides over the feed, but under my subordinates, there are also Ou Yangniang, Zhishu, Zhichai, as well as various housekeepers, as well as Xiao Da Steward in the outer courtyard, and the shopkeepers of each shop, these people are just helping me take care of the entire Zhuguo Marquis Mansion. If someone thinks they are more important than me, of course I'm going to have a head......"

Du Hengshuang was there to tell the story, but Xiao Shiji was like an initiation, and immediately remembered Xu Wenjing's matter.

He drilled the tip of the bull's horns before, and always felt that Xu Wenjing was just in charge of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the accounts of the world's money and grain, and he had neither soldiers nor power in his hands, how could he be jealous of His Majesty to such a point?

In fact, he forgot another layer.

It is Xu Wenjing, who is very close to Prince Yi.

More importantly, in front of His Majesty, Xu Wenjing never hid his appreciation and support for Prince Yi.

Prince Yi has soldiers in his hands, and Xu Wenjing has money in his hands...... Even if the money is not his, but he manages the money, and that is enough......

Xiao Shiji's mind spun rapidly.

If His Majesty is jealous of Xu Wenjing for this reason, it makes sense.

Because what he is afraid of is not Xu Wenjing, but Prince Yi who Xu Wenjing supports! - Your Majesty is actually afraid of Prince Yi!

But why did Prince Yi say that Xu Wenjing's matter was actually the same thing as the Turkic matter? And say it's a pustule that has been covered for a long time?

Xiao Shiji glanced at Du Hengshuang, and stopped talking.

Du Hengshuang was very strange, she rarely saw Xiao Shihe like this.

"What the hell is wrong with you? If you have something to say, just say it. Do you still have concerns with me? Du Hengshuang asked with a smile, reached over to cover Xiao Shihe's hand holding chopsticks, and shook it gently.

Xiao Shiji's heart warmed, and he secretly thought that what Mu Ye said might not be right. Shuang'er may not understand these things in the court, but she is very smart. If you talk to her about everything, and then analyze it with her, maybe she is better than you......

Xiao Shiji never had any scruples when he talked to Du Hengshuang, and said: "Mu Ye, you are an inner house woman, you don't understand anything, and running for me outside will cause me trouble." - I don't think she's right. You're so smart, how can you cause me trouble? Besides, even if I cause trouble, I'm not afraid. You are my wife, and whoever can't get along with you can't get along with me. ”

Du Hengshuang listened with a smile first, and when she heard Xiao Shiji talk about Mu Yelai's words, the expression on her face faded.

"Oh? What did Miss Mu San say? When have you met Miss Mu San? Du Hengshuang tried to maintain a somewhat stiff smile at the corner of his mouth, trying to stabilize his voice, but in his heart, he had already scolded Xiao Shiji to death...... Mu Ye comes to Mu Ye Lai, are you very familiar with each other? are all called by first and last names......

Xiao Shiji stretched out his hand to grab a shrimp to eat, and said indifferently: "It's today." When I was out of the city hunting, I met her outside the city, and she told me some news she had heard from Mu Guifei. After a pause, he said: "I originally thought it was nonsense, but when I mentioned it to the prince, the prince was actually very cautious." ”

"The news you heard from Mu Guifei?" Du Hengshuang repeated, her voice softer, as if she was talking to Brother Ping and Sister An, "What news did you hear from Mu Guifei?" - Would you like to hear about it? ”
