Hearing that the master finally ordered him to leave, he knelt down and kowtowed a few times, and Lu Wentao, who had done enough salutes, left in a hurry. It's just that after walking out of the study of the King of Guilin County, although it is a cold winter moon now, Lu Wentao found that his whole body was as if he had been fished out of the water, and he was already soaked with cold sweat.

wiped the cold sweat that was still dripping from his forehead. After taking a long breath, he looked at the starry sky in the Jingzhao winter night, and turned to find the head of the other courtyard. Although he is not in that mood now, he also knows that he is still obedient, and it is better to do what the master tells him. Because the master hated nothing more than others disobeying his orders.

Lu Wentao, who turned to leave, naturally didn't know that these small movements in him had fallen into a pair of eyes hidden behind him. And the owner of these eyes did not turn and enter the house from which he had just left until his back had completely left the garden. This person obviously had a very high status in the Guilin County Palace, and when he walked into that room, none of the guards outside stopped him.

And the guards guarding the perimeter of the study where the King of Guilin County was located at this time were all henchmen who didn't listen to anyone's words except his words. Not to mention others, even the son of the world needs to be notified in advance. And this person walked in with such a dignified face. The guards outside not only did not dare to pull it, but also bowed after seeing this person.

After seeing this person come in, although the king of Guilin only nodded lightly, but looking at the person in front of him, the kind of love and appreciation in his eyes was completely different from when he saw the prince again. He pointed to the chair next to him, and waited for him to sit down before he said, "Did you see it?" How do you feel about this person? ”

"I didn't see the front, I just looked at the back. However, judging from what he has done in the Shu Mansion over the years, this person is still a talent. Although the methods are more vicious, they also have some skills. The King of Shu was bitten back by King Jing before he died, which should have been done by this person. Otherwise, with the King of Shu's person, where will King Jing and King Ying be given the opportunity to meet? The man replied with a slight groan.

After listening to this person's answer, the King of Guilin nodded with satisfaction and said, "You can see it very accurately, this person is indeed an extraordinary person, and he has some skills." Such people should use it, but they must be guarded against. Don't be fooled by his apparent submissive appearance, this man is very ambitious. In the matter of the King of Shu, he did not completely tell the truth to this king, but concealed something. ”

"This time I went to Quanzhou, and he presided over the things on the surface, but in fact, everything is still up to you. Let him make trouble with the court, and you will secretly preside over the overall situation. However, you don't have to meet him directly, just manipulate the big picture in secret. Also, this person must be watched, he is not of the same mind as us, and we must beware of his backlash. ”

"This person will be used for another two years, because at least in these two years, we can't openly turn our faces with the court. The reason why this king still keeps him is to give an explanation to the court with his head when necessary. After the incident, no matter what, he can't be allowed to live, let alone fall into the hands of the imperial court. If necessary, you can decide whether or not to get rid of him. ”

Speaking of this, the king of Guilin looked at the person in front of him, and said with a loving expression on his face: "In the past few years, you have been begging to preside over the affairs there, and you have done a very good job, and this king is also very satisfied." This king knows that he has wronged you in the past few years. Not only let you hide your name and fake your death at a young age, so as to avoid the sight of some people in the palace. ”

"And let you stay in that kind of wild place for five years. Every day, we not only have to lead people to cultivate the land, but also deal with the infestation of the natives in the mountains from time to time. even went into battle in person, fighting with those natives, in exchange for the achievements we are seeking now. In the past few years, he has been running back and forth in Liuqiu, Quanzhou, and Guangzhou. ”

"During this period, there were several strong winds and waves, and you relied on God's care to escape from death. Originally, I thought that I would transfer you back and raise you for two years, so that I could inherit the great cause of this king. But the matter is very important there, and it is our last retreat, and I really don't feel at ease when this king is handed over to others. You are the most important of your brothers, so I can only wronged you. ”

When the visitor heard his father say this, he quickly stood up and said, "The son is the son of the father, and it is natural for him to share his worries and solve problems." Besides, the son is also a descendant of the Liu family, and it is even more appropriate to do his best for the family. And although he has endured some hardships over the years, his son has also gained the tempering that he could not get in the house in the past. Don't suffer a little more, and where do you experience the difficulty of the ancestors' entrepreneurship? ”

This person is none other than the third son of the King of Guilin. That is, Liu Jinli, the third half-brother who was made nowhere by his father because he opposed his father's rebellion. However, not only the prince, but also the other people in the Guilin County Palace, except for a few people involved, did not know that the third young master, who had been missing for five years, was sent to run the back road.

And since the third young master entered this room, when the king of Guilin looked at him, his cold eyes were completely different from when he faced the prince. The love in his eyes never faded. It is enough to show that he has a completely different attitude towards this son and towards the son. It's not just because this son is the real eldest son of his wife who died early.

At the same time, in the heart of this king of Guilin, this son is resolute and resolute, and he is the one who is most like him among all his sons. At least in his heart, that's what he thinks. As for that son, it's just that he doesn't like it, but he was forced to remarry by his father's stepfamily. After the nominal disappearance of the third son, the canonization of the son as the son was just to deal with the imperial court.

Looking at the extremely rare love in his father's eyes, Liu Jinli's heart warmed slightly. It's just that after remembering one thing, although he hesitated slightly, he gritted his teeth and said, "Father, do you really plan to let Rui'er drag down the court?" It is rumored that the king of England is murderous, and it is definitely not Rui'er's good fate, are you thinking about it? ”

Hearing Liu Jinli's words, the king of Guilin was slightly stunned. After looking at him for a long time, he said, "Why do you also like her?" This king didn't expect that she had such a charming method at a young age, and she actually fascinated several of your brothers? Have you forgotten how this king has taught you all these years? Especially you, how much effort did this king spend on you? ”

When the king of Guilin said this, although his tone was very steady, he obviously showed displeasure. immediately understood that his father had misunderstood his Liu Jinli, and hurriedly said: "My father's teachings, my son will not dare to forget them for a moment, and as for that kind of thought, my son will never have it." The son is ten years older than Rui'er, and if he is a few years older, he can be her father. ”

What's more, five years before her son went to Liuqiu, she followed her seventh aunt to Qixing Mountain to learn martial arts. I don't know what her son and she haven't seen for ten years, and I don't know what she looks like now. What will her son think of her? The son just thinks of her as a sister. Father, Rui'er has been sluggish since childhood. I've been out all these years, you know Aunt Seven's temperament. ”

"Presumably, she has not suffered less over the years, so why should you do that? What's more? Speaking of this, seeing his father's face becoming more and more gloomy, he knew that that incident had always been taboo in the palace, and finally closed his mouth. Although he wanted to say, yes, Rui'er was the adopted daughter of the royal palace. But isn't it the father who makes people orphaned from the home of poetry, books and etiquette?

It's my own home, I'm sorry for that child, not that child I'm sorry for the palace. Now that weak woman is used to make a deal to drag down the court, is it a bit too much? It's just that after seeing his father's face when he mentioned this matter, Liu Jinli's final words still didn't come out. Liu Rui's background is not a secret in the palace, but no one dares to mention it in front of his father.

Liu Jinli is the son of the king of Guilin, yes, and his talent is also first-class. But his temperament is not like his father, but his biological mother who died early. Although he is very talented, he is very upright. Although he is more than thirty years old, he only has one wife and three concubines around him. The three concubines were sent by their father to beg for help, and they were accepted only after they could not see their wives again.

It turned out that when he was in Fuzhong, Liu Jinli loved this sister who was not related by blood and whose parents were dead. Before Liu Rui went to Qixing Mountain to learn art, he was the only person in the Guilin County Palace, who was sincere, and regarded Situ Zhaoshuang, who had become an orphan girl back then, as his own relatives. Now watching this sister being pushed into the fire pit by her father is really unbearable.

In his heart, he doesn't think it's a good thing to marry the Heavenly Family. In his opinion, being a daughter-in-law to the heavenly family is no different from jumping into a fire pit. Especially now that he has officially settled a relationship with Situ Zhaoshuang, who is now famous in the court, he killed hundreds of officials and scholars in Zhengzhou in one go, and in his eyes he has been equated with brutality.

And Liu Jinli's opposition to this family affair is not only because he feels sorry for his sister who lost her parents at a young age and sent someone under the fence, but also has an unspeakable reason. But with this excuse, he was worried that speaking out would not only not help Liu Rui, but would provoke his father, who had always been ruthless, to make up his mind to cut the grass and eradicate the roots.

Although he is kind-hearted, he grew up in a big family of intrigue. The thoughtful Liu Jinli has always believed that when the incident happened, this sister was already five years old, and she should have reached the age of remembering. If Liu Rui really forgot the tragedy of the year, it would be better to be a princess or a queen without a way.

But if you remember, it is a blessing and a curse for the Guilin County Palace. If the King of England really ascends the throne as the emperor in the future, and she is taking revenge with the help of the power of the imperial court, then it will be really bloody. Not only did her adoptive sister experience so many things in her early years, but she also grew up next to her seventh aunt with a strange personality, if she wasn't resolute, she would have gone crazy if she hadn't been forced to death if she had changed ordinary people.

Looking at the unbearable on his son's face, the king of Guilin, who has always been known for being strict with his sons, did not reprimand him this time. Instead, he sighed slightly: "Your heart is still not hard enough." Haven't you had enough of all these years of suffering? As long as there is a need, don't say that she is a worthless orphan girl, even if she is really the princess of the palace? ”

"Besides, this king has been worthy of her all these years. The position of queen, which others dream of and can't ask for, is not a disadvantage to her. Besides, the king of England was chosen by herself, and even if she suffers in the future, it is no wonder that this king will suffer. Okay, this matter has been decided, so don't mention it again. ”

Seeing the unchangeable look on his face when his father said this, Liu Jinli didn't dare to say anything more, so he could only sigh slightly in his heart. He didn't know whether Liu Rui's marriage to the King of England was a blessing or a curse for the Guilin County Palace. Will the final outcome of the matter be as expected by his father, who really knows?
