The 'family banquet' finally ended half an hour later, Yan Zhe sat for a while and then returned to the palace, and Yan Yumo and Fang Caiwu also followed back to the palace.

Walking out of the hall, Su Zixu suddenly said that he hadn't eaten enough at the family banquet just now, and proposed to find a place to sit down and eat again.

Fang Jinyuan also knew that everyone hadn't eaten well just now, so according to Su Zixu's proposal, he ordered his subordinates to prepare another table of food in the side hall.

A few people began to eat, and Su Zixu said a few words from time to time to adjust the atmosphere, but except for him and Fang Zihuai, the others still looked dignified.

"Hibiscus, eat a piece of fish."

Fang Jinyi sandwiched a piece of fish to Fang Jinyi, and Su Muqiu, who was sitting next to her, heard it, and immediately looked at Fang Jinyi, but saw that after she thanked Fang Jinyi, she ate the fish?

Su Muqiu frowned slightly, but didn't say anything, and after eating for a while, she pretended to inadvertently clip a piece of fish meat to Fang Jinyi, and then watched her reaction. As a result, Fang Jinyi put aside the fish he had sandwiched, with no intention of eating it.

Next, Su Muqiu was secretly observing and found that as long as it was the fish and meat that Fang Jinyi sandwiched, Fang Jinyi would eat it without hesitation, but the fish he sandwiched, Fang Jinyi would let it be on the plate.

Fang Jinyi's approach made Su Muqiu feel very uncomfortable, but in front of so many people, Su Muqiu was not easy to attack, so she had to sulk alone.

Fang Jinyi naturally knew that Su Muqiu was angry, and from the time Su Muqiu gave her the second time just now, she knew that Su Muqiu was intentional. But in this matter, she really didn't want to make a show, so she let him go.

"Big brother, speaking of which, it's the first time I've seen Yan ...... today. Holy. He's not as unreasonable as he thought. Su Zixu put down his chopsticks and said, then looked at Fang Zihuai next to him, and said, "You said yes, right?" ”

was suddenly asked, Fang Zihuai was stunned at first, and then said with a blank face: "I don't know." ”

Su Zixu shook his head a little helplessly when he saw Fang Zihuai's appearance, then looked at Fang Jinyuan and said, "Brother Fang, did you say?" ”

Fang Jinyuan looked at the smile in Su Zixu's eyes, his eyes changed slightly, but he immediately returned to normal, "As the king of a country, the Holy Lord is naturally sensible, otherwise how can the people admire." ”

"Brother Fang said it so well." Su Zixu said with a smile, and it sounded like there was a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

Fang Jinyi glanced at him and said with some displeasure: "Zixu." ”

Su Zixu pursed his lips, picked up his wine glass and drank, Fang Zihuai on the side looked at them, feeling a little puzzled in his heart, why did they all seem to have a feeling of being in a heavy mood?

"Lin Lang." Su Muqiu looked at Lin Lang who was standing at the door, then raised his chin, Lin Lang understood, turned around and went out, and then went to the roof unconsciously.

After Lin Lang left, Su Muqiu dismissed the maids who were waiting around, and then looked at Su Zixu and said, "You can be regarded as seeing the world today, let me ask you, what do you think in your heart?" ”

"There are a lot of ideas, do you want to listen to them all, big brother?" Su Zixu looked at him with a complacent look and said, "If you want to listen to it all, then I guess when I finish speaking, the sky will be bright." ”

Su Muqiu glared at him unhappily and said, "If you talk nonsense with me again, you can go back tomorrow." ”

Su Zixu pursed his lips and asked in a low voice, "Tell me the truth?" As he spoke, he also stole a glance at the person next to him.

Su Muqiu knew what he meant, so he only waved his hand and said, "There are no outsiders here." ”

"Okay, with your words, then I'll say it straight." Su Zixu slapped the table and said, then cleared his throat and began his performance.

"Actually, I don't have any special ideas, but if I want to say that I have the deepest thoughts, it is Iwa...... The Holy Heavens rewarded Brother Fang. ”

Fang Zihuai on the side was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why?" Isn't it normal to reward meritorious generals? ”

Fang Jinyuan glanced at Su Zixu, and then said to Fang Zihuai: "Zihuai, listen carefully." ”

Fang Zihuai immediately closed his mouth obediently, looked at Su Zixu, and motioned for him to continue.

Su Zixu smiled and said, "First of all, this rock ......" said it wrong twice in a row, Su Zixu looked at Su Muqiu with some weakness, and when he saw that he didn't react, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and continued: "The saint pretended to use the reward to achieve two purposes. First, although Brother Fang is a courtier, everyone in the world knows that as long as he is a human being, he has his own thoughts, and it is inevitable that he will have two hearts. Therefore, the saint wants to comfort Brother Fang with this, and wants him to fight for him willingly and protect the country for him. ”

"Second, the saint is a reward on the surface, but in fact, it is to test whether Brother Fang has ambitions, after all, Brother Fang has been stationed at the border for many years, and the soldiers under him regard him as the master, so it would be good if Brother Fang accepted the reward and enjoyed it alone. If he distributes the money that the Holy Lord has given him personally to other soldiers on his own initiative, then it will be considered as buying the hearts of the army. ”

"Is it that serious?" Fang Zihuai spoke again, he didn't think that distributing the silver to his soldiers meant that he was buying people's hearts.

"It's not serious to say it's serious, but if it's ...... slight," Su Zixu said this, revealing an unfathomable expression, "It's a matter of the survival of the southern country, do you think it's light?" ”

"But the saint grew up watching my eldest brother, and he knew that my eldest brother would not do such a thing." Fang Zihuai said righteously, in his heart, the Holy Lord was very good to their family, and he would not have such doubts about his eldest brother.

Su Zixu smacked his lips helplessly, looked at him and shook his head and said, "Jun's heart is unpredictable, do you understand?" ”

"But......" Fang Zihuai still wanted to defend himself, but he didn't know what to say.

Su Zixu looked at him and sighed helplessly, and said, "Okay, even if what you say makes some sense." But as long as the saint has a trace of doubt in his heart at the moment, if someone with a heart uses this matter to make a fuss in the future, then will the saint still believe Brother Fang 100%? At that time, Brother Fang must also be speechless. ”

After Su Zixu finished speaking, everyone was silent, but they had the same thought in their hearts, that is, what Su Zixu said was right.

"It's just a simple reward, there will be so many articles in it?" Fang Zihuai hesitated a little and said, he would never think about one thing so much.

"What do you think?"

Fang Yanyu's voice came from outside the door, Fang Zihuai immediately turned around when he heard it, and when he saw Fang Yanyu with a gloomy face, he lowered his head and whispered, "Dad." ”

"Daddy." Fang Jinyuan stood up and shouted.

Su Muqiu, who was on the side, also got up and saluted, "Father-in-law." ”

"No need to be polite, just sit down." Fang Yanyu said, then walked to the main seat and sat down, looked at Fang Zihuai and said: "You, learn more from Zixu, go through everything once, speak and do things carefully, don't just look at the surface, think deeply." ”

Fang Jinyuan sat on the stool and said, "Dad, my brother is still young, don't be too hard on him." ”

Fang Yanyu glanced at him and said, "Harsh? When you were his age, you would have stood alone. ”

Fang Jinyi looked at the red-eyed Fang Zihuai, and couldn't help but speak: "Dad, my brother is much better than before, you have to think more about him in everything." ”

Fang Yanyu glanced at Fang Zihuai, was silent for a moment, and said, "When you have the opportunity, follow your eldest brother to the border to exercise." ”

Fang Zihuai looked up at him, was stunned for a moment, and then nodded hurriedly: "Yes, the child will definitely listen carefully to the teachings of the eldest brother." ”

"Father-in-law, the words of my brother-in-law......"

Fang Yanyu raised his hand to interrupt Su Muqiu, looked at Su Zixu and said, "That makes sense." ”

Su Zixu stood up a little embarrassed, bent down and said, "Uncle, Brother Fang, I just said nonsense, don't take it to heart." ”

Fang Jinyuan smiled and said, "Zixu is humble, I have carefully observed you in the past two days, and with your intelligence, you are enough to become a military advisor." ”

This is already the most concise and concise praise for Su Zixu. Su Zixu touched his forehead a little shyly, and then hugged his fist to Fang Jinyuan and said, "Thank you, Brother Fang, for complimenting." ”

Fang Zihuai on the side looked at Su Zixu's eyes full of admiration, and he was a little jealous, he had never received such praise from his father and eldest brother since he was a child. He and Su Zixu are of the same age, but they are different everywhere, Su Zixu has traveled all over the world to practice medicine, and even understands military affairs, but he can't even do a little thing.

Su Zixu turned his head to see Fang Zihuai, who was secretly sad, leaned his body towards him, touched him with his elbow, and whispered: "When you and Brother Fang go to the border, remember to take me." ”

Fang Zihuai pursed his lips and whispered, "No." ”

"If you take me with you, I can teach you healing." Su Zixu tempted, after all, this is something that other people can only dream of.

But Fang Zihuai was different, he was not interested in medical skills, turned his head to look to the side and said, "I don't want to learn." ”

"Do you bring it?" Su Zixu raised his eyebrows and looked at him, then lowered his voice and said, "If you don't take me, I'll poke you out about going to the brothel to see if my uncle will break your legs." ”

"You have a share, too." Fang Zihuai reminded.

Su Zixu looked at him indifferently and said, "So what? My eldest brother will not be allowed to go out for two months at most, and if it is more serious, it will be nothing more than a few beatings, you will be different, your father and eldest brother are both generals, and your sister is the crown princess, if this matter spreads, where will their faces go? Put it under your clothes? ”

Fang Zihuai glared at him angrily and couldn't speak, he had already been tricked by this guy, and he could use this to blackmail him at any time.

"How? Do you want to bring me? Su Zixu looked at him with a provocative face, he didn't believe that he was a dignified second son, and he couldn't take a small Fang Zihuai.

Fang Zihuai gritted his teeth and looked at him, and after a while, he still compromised: "Okay, take you." ”

Su Zixu smiled proudly, seeing Fang Zihuai's dejected face, he reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and said: "Don't worry, I am a good brother who shares blessings and hardships with you, if you make a mistake in the future, your father breaks your leg, I will definitely help you heal." ”

Fang Zihuai took his hand away and said with a look of resentment: "I believe you are a ghost!" ”
