At the beginning of the night, people have been asleep, the moon will be clearly visible in the courtyard, Ming Huaibing sat in the hall of Shangyuan Pavilion for a long time, the maid on the side changed the candlestick over and over again, in the cold night and winter, he instructed the maid to open a door, the maid looked at the thin clothes on his body, wanted to persuade or not, hesitated for a while, or did it.

The door was open, Ming Huaibing was facing the courtyard outside the door, it was snowing outside, and in the middle of the courtyard, a red plum tree was still playing snowflakes.

Red plum arrogant, white snow dust, he was interested, and wanted to get up and walk to the courtyard.

A grandmother who came out of the inner room stopped him and put on a thick cloak for him, "Third son, it's cold outside, don't go out, Master Hou came out of the room to see you!" ”

At the end of the words, Mingyi Kun wore long hair, dressed in bed clothes, and sat cross-legged on the Luohan bed casually, "What are you going to do in the middle of the night!" ”

Ming Huaibing stood in front of Ming Yikun and bowed his head without saying a word.

"What, wronged?" Ming Yikun asked.

"My son doesn't dare." Ming Huaibing's throat moved slightly, and he spit out four words.

I don't dare to say that I am wronged, but I am indeed wronged, what he has been doing and what he has planned, this father is clear, he thought that his father believed in him and supported him, but before the first step, he never expected that their first formal meeting with Gao Yang would end like this.

After he sent Gao Yang away, he came to Yuan Pavilion to ask to see his father, but his father had stopped telling his subordinates, and his father did not see him.

If not, he will sit there until his father sees him.

"My father promised me, but I don't understand." Ming Huaibing couldn't stand the grievances and doubts in his heart, and asked Ming Yikun.

"Huai Bing, Yu Gong, you messed up your mind; In selfishness, you have lost your sense of proportion. Ming Yikun sat cross-legged casually, examining his son.

When he heard that he had lost his senses, Ming Huaibing panicked in his heart, and he looked up at his father and was about to open his mouth to defend himself.

Ming Yikun didn't wait for him to speak, and gave an eviction order, "You go back first, your mother and I don't have any opinions on Gao Yang, it's just a small temptation." ”

A banquet so snubbed the princess of Zhenguo, saying that there was no opinion, how could Ming Huaibing believe it, not to mention his secret proposal to his father, his father obviously promised to consider it seriously, this banquet can be regarded as an evaluation of Gao Yang, and it can be regarded as overturning his proposal?

Ming Yikun lost the fourth prince Zhang Zhiheng, and without the prince by his side, did he have to watch King Ning inherit the unification and wait for King Ning's party to liquidate their Ming family's forces.

It's a pity that his father didn't reveal a word about this matter, and at that time he tentatively proposed a secret suggestion: support Gao Yang to be the princess of the prison country.

Under that accident, Zhang Qingpo mistook Gao Yang for the reincarnation of Princess Yu, and falsely passed the holy decree for Gao Yang, and canonized Gao Yang as the princess of the prison country.

Zhang Qingpo pretended to be a saint in Chang'an, but the emperor did not kill him, and Gao Yang was also not punished, and he was officially canonized as the princess of Zhenguo by mistake.

The false decree was not punished, and the fake princess was named the princess of Zhenguo.

Does that mean that the princess of Zhenguo can be a prisoner.

At that time, my father did not agree or refuse, this indifferent banquet was the evaluation of Gao Yang, the reply to him?

Father's reply was that it was impossible to support Gao Yang?

Ming Huaibing's hesitation and doubts, he had to be answered, obviously he could sleep well, and go to his father the next day, but he couldn't wait, he couldn't wait for a moment, so he waited for his father all night in the hall.

With such an unclear answer, of course Ming Huaibing will not give up.

"I said, I have no problem with Gao Yang! Is that a reply enough! Ming Huaibing got up from the Luohan bed, and met Ming Huaibing's dark eyes sharply.

Ming Huaibing's heart sank, he suddenly felt that he was very wrong, "I have no opinion on Gao Yang" Isn't it just a reply?

Is it possible to force a clever politician to choose a position immediately when the situation is unclear?

"My son knew that he was wrong, and he annoyed his father to come out in the middle of the night to solve my doubts!"

Seeing that Ming Huai finally gave up, Ming Yikun was relieved and turned his head to go back to the inner bedroom.

"Does my father think that my relationship with my second sister-in-law is too close?" Ming Huaibing looked at Ming Yikun's back and asked this sentence.

Ming Yikun turned around and sat back on the Luohan bed, "Anyway, she is your former second sister-in-law, so she should avoid suspicion, don't worry, this small banquet is your mother who wants to test Gao Yang, as for me, I will find her to explain the situation of the Eagle Division." ”

"Thank you, father."

"You have a second sister-in-law, should you also work harder, even if your mother doesn't urge you, you have to think about yourself."

Ming Yikun looked at Ming Huaibing in front of him, this is his own son and Ji Baimei, he treats Ming Dailing as his own, but Ji Baimei, obviously both of them are her biological sons, she only cares about Ming Dailing, but she ignores her youngest son Ming Huaibing.

He is usually busy with government affairs and does not greet Ming Huaibing too much, today, it is rare for the two fathers and sons to talk late at night like this, he is distressed after all.

"If there is a suitable marriage, I will talk to my father and let my father come to my door to propose marriage, but now that the Ming family is in trouble, I will wait for this limelight to pass."

"You can't do this, if you say it's dangerous, my Nanxiong Marquis is precarious every day in the imperial court, but I still have to live every day, every day without forgetting to love your mother, love fate, if you meet, you can't miss it!" Ming Yikun said with pride.

This kind of persuasion made Ming Huaibing stunned, once he thought about a woman day and night, unconsciously, he sealed his memories and feelings, if it wasn't for his father to suddenly mention it, I don't know how long it will take before he remembers his marriage.

Suddenly, Ming Yikun's eyes became helpless and sad, "Your mother has always been partial to your second brother, and she has never cared about your affairs, and she is also her biological son, why should she be so favoritistic?" It's rare that you've never resented favoritism. ”

"I understand the pain of my father, mother and second brother, I understand, I only hate that I can't do anything for my mother and second brother, I hate my incompetence, and I hate that I hurt my second brother's heart when I was a child."

Ming Yikun rubbed his forehead, looking restless, such Ming Huaibing is too sensible, Ji Baimei and Ming Dailing dare to love and hate, he loves their mother and son very much, and they all say that crying children have candy to eat, and the younger son Ming Huaibing never asks for it, he doesn't resent it, how should he put these three people in a balanced position.

"Don't think about it too much, go back, also, assisting Gao Yang to be the real princess of the prison country, this matter is easy to say, easy to say, if you do it firmly, you must always give me a suitable reason, you think about it, if your plan is feasible, my father will consider it."

"Thank you, father."

Ming Huaibing walked out of Shangyuan Pavilion, people's hearts are flesh and blood, in the past ten years, his mother has a completely different attitude towards the two brothers, how can he not care, he used to be so envious and jealous of his second brother, with his mother's almost perfect favor, all the good things in the house, food and use, including finding a teacher for them.

Because Ming Dailing rejected Huo Qindi, otherwise it would not be his turn to be Huo Qindi's student.

He had a good relationship with his second brother when he was a child, he had a clever mouth since he was a child, at that time, even the Empress Dowager liked him, he was rewarded by the emperor, he became famous as a young man, he was proud and confident since he was a child, and his second brother was always serious and resentful, and he rarely saw a smile on his face, but the more he was like this, his mother loved him.

In contrast, obviously he is more likable, obviously his brilliance is better than that of the second brother, the second brother is so proud and conceited, and he always has undeserved ambitions, but his mother loves her, and even the beautiful woman likes the second brother.

No matter what careful thoughts he had in his heart, he admitted that the second brother in his childhood was indeed good to him, everything was because of the humiliation in the palace, and the second brother didn't want dignity and didn't want his life to save him, but he was replaced by a disgusting ridicule.

Since then, Ming Dailing's attitude towards him has changed greatly, and seeing that the relationship between the two brothers is not good, Ming Yikun can only bite the bullet and tell him a secret, the secret of Ming Dailing's life experience,

Ming Dailing is the illegitimate son of his mother and the emperor, and the emperor once sent someone to assassinate Ming Dailing.

At that moment, Ming Huaibing finally understood why his mother favored the second brother so much, why the second brother always disliked the emperor, and why the second brother always had a black face and often said some strange and complaining things.

Knowing this past incident, coupled with the fact that the second brother was humiliated by the fifth prince in the palace instead of him, Ming Huaibing felt guilty and distressed for the second brother, and since then, no matter how Ming Dailing sneered at him, he would not refute or resent at all.

He protects Gao Yang for a large part, because he knows that Gao Yang is the woman that his second brother loves the most, and he wants to protect Gao Yang for his second brother.

After lamenting the past, he went back to the courtyard.

After the banquet in the Hou Mansion, Gao Yang was in a displeasured mood, and he officially met with the Ming Hou couple for the first time, so he was not welcomed.

On the second day, she left the palace early in the morning to go to Lu Mansion, Lu Yanqi lost a lot of weight, and she was full of indifference to Gao Yang's arrival.

She was too affectionate for Bai Yan, Bai Yan disappeared, she went to Jiangxi to look for half a year, and then was forcibly taken back to the capital by her father, and now she learned that Bai Yan blocked Gao Yang's arrows in Tianhu Mountain in order to save Gao Yang, and her life and death are unknown.

After Gao Yang came back, he did not tell Lu Yanji the news that Bai Yan was not dead.

She, the former boudoir sister, was completely forgotten by Gao Yang.

Lu Yanqi was lying on the bed, weak, pale, and didn't look at Gao Yang.

Gao Yang felt guilty and remorseful, if Huo Qindi hadn't mentioned it to her by chance, saying that Lu Yanqi was sad because of Bai Yan's death and tried to hang herself, she wouldn't know at all, and she wouldn't have come to see her at all.

She handed the letter that Bai Yan gave her to Lu Yanqi, "Sister Lu, I'm late, this letter is his farewell letter, since he is not dead, I am not in a hurry to give it to you." ”

"You said he wasn't dead, really?" Lu Yanqi took the letter, couldn't wait to open it, and burst into tears after reading it.

Gao Yang said: "Sister Lu, the matter in Shaanxi, Gao Zhanxun died, he is my father after all, there are too many things happening in between, I am very confused, so I don't take care of you." ”

"I know, I know, your life is not easy." Lu Yanji burst into tears for a moment, for Bai Yan and for Gao Yang.

The misunderstanding between the two was solved, and Lu Yanqi knew that Bai Yan was not dead, and he was depressed for more than half a year, and finally stretched his face.

After Gao Yang conveyed Bai Yan's matter to Lu Yanji, she didn't know what to say, she and Lu Yanqi met in Shu, and what she said at that time was just what kind of man she liked, how to rhyme with poetry, these daughters' family words.

There's a lot going on now, I've experienced too much, and I really don't know what to say when I open my mouth again

Lu Yanqi guessed Gao Yang's thoughts, she wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and sighed the past, "At that time, I went to Shu with Zhou Yitian to pick you up, at that time I told you about a woman's dream, a heroine's dream, and I was ashamed to say that a woman can also be an official, but Zhou Yitian told you that the court is sinister, and the ordinary life is precious, he took Shu'er to do business all over the country, and I heard that now the business is booming, and now he is a businessman who should not be underestimated in Dajin." ”

"Anyway, if he has been gone for so long, he must have sent a letter to you, but I haven't received a letter from him."

"His dolls are almost two years old!"

"Congratulations!"

This sentence not only represents the sincere joy, but also endless envy, for her, that kind of life will never be possible, Zhou Yitian said to her in the past, persuading him not to participate in the old case, if he is not contaminated, there will be no follow-up, and so many people will not die, to this ridiculous situation now.

Instead of finding out her father's old case and clearing her father's grievances, she forced her father to death with her own hands, and her father was killed by Gao Qiye, if Gao Qiye hadn't killed him, he would indeed have died at her hands with his own hands.

She bears the name of killing her father to the world.

Since she was born, she has written about the daughter of a high thief, she continued her father's shame, and also continued the pain, causing such a human tragedy, she has affected many people, and many people died for her.

What would have happened if she had listened to Zhou Tantian's advice at the beginning.

It's a pity that there is no if.

Thinking about it carefully, Ming Yikun's indifferent attitude towards her is nothing more than two meanings, the first is that he is very dissatisfied with Gao Yang, blaming her for her indifference to Ming Dailing, although Ming Dailing is sorry for her, he did not care about the danger to save her on the battlefield, and did not hesitate to expose himself in order to save her.

Either she was deliberately tempted, or she was suspicious of Gao Yang's ability, Ming Yikun didn't want to be too involved with Gao Yang, lest she couldn't be able to help, but instead of helping, she would mess up their plans.

The third is to give her a dismount, let her know that although she is the princess of Zhenguo officially canonized by the emperor, she is just because of the identity of her mother Bai Qianhua, this embarrassing identity is also powerless, and Nanxiong is the person who really holds power.

If Gao Yang wants to cooperate with him, he should lower his posture, even if he is indifferent and neglected, he must go to him again, after all, it was never Nanxiong Hou who begged her, but she asked the Ming family for help.

Once Ming Huaibing taught her that she could give up her dignity when necessary, in fact, with the status of Nanxiong Marquis, and he was a former father-in-law, it was not impossible to bow her head, but she thought about it, she was also the princess of Zhenguo after all.

She didn't want to use Ming Huaibing's method for the time being, for the first time, she wanted to try it herself, try to test the court independently, deal with the court independently, and experience the taste of mediation with hundreds of officials.
