In the study room of King Wu's mansion, the wind flashed in.

"Master, Chen Xiling, the head of the Changshan faction, is here."

Hearing the name, Ye Tingchen raised his head, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.

Sure enough, this man was as fearless as before, and he invited him to come, and he really came.

Ye Tingchen smiled slightly, closed his eyes and propped his hand on his chin and thought lightly, then raised his head and said to the wind in front of him: "Please let him in......"

"Please come to the study."

Ye Tingchen rubbed his brows and sobered himself up, Chen Xiling has a variety of means, if he doesn't put out 100% energy, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with it.

The wind in front of him nodded slightly, and he was about to walk out, but the door was pushed in, and Chen Xiling looked at Ye Tingchen in front of him with a smile.

Without knocking on the door, Chen Xiling directly pushed open the door of the study, and both of them were stunned when they met Ye Tingchen's gaze.

"Sit down."

Ye Tingchen pointed to the tea house in front of him and motioned for Chen Xiling to take a seat.

Ye Tingchen really ignored him for the time being, but instead called over to the wind and said lightly to him: "By the way, those fabrics this year should have been shipped too, right?" ”

Feng nodded on the side, a little strange why Ye Tingchen suddenly asked about this.

Ye Tingchen smiled slightly and said lightly: "I see that Shen Mo's girl doesn't seem to have any good clothes on weekdays, you hurry up and send her a few pieces of fabric to remember that it can't be said that I said it, that the old housekeeper gave it to her!" ”

Hearing this, Chen Xiling had complicated eyes, and looked at Ye Tingchen in front of him without saying anything.

You're welcome, Chen Xiling changed the sword to his waist and sat down directly.

Chen Xiling sighed, staring at the wind in front of him with his eyes, as if he understood the meaning of the person in front of him, Chen Xiling directly handed him a sword on his waist.

The wind in front of him seemed to let down his vigilance and walked straight out the door.

"Don't you be curious, I called you."

Ye Tingchen knew that Chen Xiling was cold, but since he was invited to come, it was really surprising that he could be so calm.

"King Wu has nothing to do with my Changshan faction, since he asked me to come, it must be for personal matters."

Because of the silent relationship between these two people, there are a lot of things that can be said.

Chen Xiling picked up the tea prepared in front of him and took a sip. He won't fall into Ye Tingchen's trap, if he has something to say, he can say it first, and then think of countermeasures.

"Where did you and I not have any personal contact with each other?"

Ye Tingchen reversed, he had not been in contact with Chen Xiling for more than ten years, and if it weren't for the silence, he wouldn't have invited him to come. But how could he tell him now that he had been called here because of silence.

The bitter taste in the tea leaves in his eyes slowly spread to the tongue coating, and Chen Xiling's eyes stared directly at Ye Tingchen in front of him.

Ye Tingchen also smiled slightly, didn't care about his rude behavior, and said lightly: "Is the tea still hot, do you want to make a pot again?" ”

Thinking that the first time the two met, it was when the Changshan faction and the royal family broke up, Chen Xiling and Ye Tingchen were still five-year-old children, and they didn't know what was going on, so they followed to attend the banquet, but they were only one side.

"Since there is no official business and no private affairs, I really don't know the intention of King Wu to waste a lot of time to let me come."

Chen Xiling naturally knew that Ye Tingchen had something to say and waited for him to fall into the trap, since he didn't know what to say, he had no choice but to go around in circles with him.

"The Changshan faction opened the mountain, have you asked for the king's consent?"

Ye Tingchen's face was serious, he knew that the Changshan faction had promised the royal family to close the mountain back then, and now it was natural to open the mountain without authorization.

At that moment, he also accepted the joking expression just now, and suddenly became serious, his eyes stared at Chen Xiling in front of him like an eagle, as if he was waiting for him to give himself an explanation.

Chen Xiling didn't expect King Wu to invite him to talk about this matter, so he shook his head.

"Lord Wu is really a good memory, I have been opening the mountain for more than a month, and I sent a post on the opening ceremony to King Wu that day, and King Wu refused to remember it? Now that King Wu has come to blame the opening of the mountain, isn't it too late? ”

In fact, as long as King Wu is willing to send troops to Changshan immediately with a wave of his hand, he can naturally destroy the so-called sect to it.

However, at the moment, he didn't want to do this, because the first Chen Xiling was Shen Mo's senior brother, and doing this would inevitably anger Shen Mo, which he didn't want to see.

Second, he is not willing to offend any enemy unless he has to, and it is better to have one more friend than one more enemy.

Chen Xiling is not afraid of royal blame, the agreement to close the mountain was agreed between his grandfather and the emperor, two generations have passed, the emperor has changed, this agreement is naturally invalid, if Ye Tingchen grasps this matter, then it is not too late to go to the emperor for theory.

Hearing Chen Xiling say this, Ye Tingchen naturally had nothing to say, and not going to participate in the opening ceremony of the Changshan faction at the beginning could be regarded as a tacit acquiescence in their decision.

In fact, even if Ye Tingchen in front of him didn't agree, Chen Xiling was not nervous, after all, Changshan was not a vegetarian.

It is not an easy task to forcibly clear the sect of Changshan to him, and I am afraid that there are few people in this world who can do it.

Ye Tingchen didn't have those old rules and ink festivals, and those old regulations stipulated that he should abolish them a long time ago, after all, the Changshan faction had made great contributions to the country back then, and it was because the merits were too high, and he was afraid of threatening the emperor, so he asked to close the mountain.

Ye Tingchen has always believed that governing the country is like dredging a water source, the more you block it, it will overflow, dig the channel and slowly drain the water down the channel, it will become a big help for you.

In fact, he naturally hated this kind of practice in his heart, and he was also joking at the moment.

Now when I mentioned it to Chen Xiling, I just turned a corner and asked him why he was entangled with Shen Mo.

After all, what he cares about is not what is long or not, the only thing he cares about is silence.

However, it seems that the implication of asking directly is too obvious, so it is always necessary to make some excuse around a corner.

"My master has accepted apprentices, so he naturally needs to open the mountain."

Chen Xiling was so smart, he had already heard the implied meaning of Ye Tingchen's words, and he didn't hide it, and told him directly.

His penchant for silence had long been known, but he himself seemed to think he was hiding it well.

Thinking of this, the corners of Chen Xiling's mouth would also hook up a little funny smile, and he glanced at Ye Tingchen with a serious face in front of him.

Ye Tingchen, he didn't know that his mind had already been guessed thoroughly by the people in his eyes.

Apprentice...... Isn't it silent?

Ye Tingchen knew that Chen Xiling had a connection with Shen Mo, but he didn't know that Shen Mo had actually become the old ghost's apprentice.

It is said that this old ghost has a very high vision, and he has only taken a fancy to Chen Xiling after looking for fifty years, and now he has accepted Shen Mo as an apprentice, which is really unbelievable.

There will be no shock at the moment, and a petite figure appears in his eyes, which is silent.

"I didn't expect this little girl to look petite, I didn't expect her talent to be so high that she could enter the eyes of the old ghost."

"It's what you think, it's the silence of the Shen family in the capital."

Chen Xiling doesn't like to beat around the bush, he might as well drag out the abacus, and it's really funny for the two men to go around and talk about it.

And he was already clear about Ye Tingchen's thoughts, and he didn't want to play any dumb riddles with him at the moment, since she wanted to know herself and tell him.

Anyway, he can only hope for silence, so it is better to help her find a good family and find someone worthy of trust.

"If there is nothing wrong with King Wu, I will retire first."

Chen Xiling saw that Ye Tingchen still couldn't accept the fact that Shen Mo was an old ghost apprentice, so he directly withdrew from the study and left Wu Wangfu.

It is undoubtedly extremely cruel to talk to one's rival about the person you like.

Chen Xiling couldn't stand such a thing, so he stood up at the moment, shook his head lightly, and glanced at King Wu in front of him.

As the sun sets, the afterglow shines, and the Golden Jade Pavilion becomes vivid because of the return of Xiaohuan and the little dog.

Xiaohuan and the little dog took the initiative to take care of the flower beds in the yard, and after being away for so long, the flowers in the flower beds were almost dead.

And now it's winter, and the leaves are covered with a layer of frost.

The frost rises early in September, which is the coldest time of the year, and by this time everyone has already taken off their summer clothes and put on thick robes.

The silent elegant and slender body did not look too cumbersome because of the heavy robe, but became more vivid and lovely.

"Miss, I heard from the maids in other courtyards that the master is coming back tonight......"

sighed slightly, shook his head, looked at the silence in front of him, and said this sentence lightly.

Xiaohuan knew that the young lady was very complaining about the old man, but the old man was the head of the family after all, and the young lady still had to bear with it if she resisted.

"I know, I'm waiting for someone to invite me."

Silent behind his hands, look at the hour, it is estimated that it is almost here.

Looking at the unhappy look of the Yuan family mother and daughter yesterday, they will definitely not give up, and when Shen Li returns home today, Shen Yan will definitely make a bigger move.

Silence's good-looking eyes smashed gently, in fact, the most beautiful scenery in the yard is not snow, but silence!

Therefore, Shen Mo deduced that Shen Yan would definitely come to Jinyu Pavilion to make a fuss for a while, and now he would wait for her to come.

Shen Mo took two steps forward gently, stretched out his hand to take the snow left on the plum blossom branch, and a cold pierced into his palm.

"Yo, my sister is really leisurely, the house is busy, only you, the Golden Jade Pavilion, are idle."

Shen Mo was thinking about it, and Shen Yan's voice came, and he entered the Golden Jade Pavilion with a new skirt and new shoes.

Xiaohuan really felt that his own young lady was divine, and he could predict that the second young lady would come to the Golden Jade Pavilion.

It seems that the second lady is going to make a big fuss again, and I don't know if the young lady has any way to subdue her.

Silent and unhurried, he sat quietly on the stone bench and watched what Shen Yan would do next.

Shen Yan looked at the silence in front of him coldly, but the silence was just silent.

Shen Yan glanced at everyone in the room, and saw that the little dog, Xiaohuan and the others frowned slightly, and said lightly: "Where did you get these mud babies and mud dogs, where is it in front of the Shen Mansion?" ”

"Shen Mo, since you don't understand the rules, let me, as a sister, teach you today!" After speaking, she looked at Xiaohuan on the side.

He sat silently, just brushing his hair lightly, his eyes lowered and looking down at the ground.

seemed to feel that Shen Mo had been restrained, glanced at Lan'er beside him, showed a hint of mockery on his face, and said:

"Lan'er, go and give me a palm."

Shen Yan gave Lan'er a look, and went straight to the small ring on the edge of the flower garden.

The little dog was a little anxious when he heard this, and hurriedly stepped forward to show his row of teeth to Shen Yan in front of him, and his vicious appearance seemed to be ready to rush up at any time.

The little dog felt that something was wrong, so he hurriedly protected the little ring in front of him and didn't let Lan'er get close.

How could Shen Mo connive at Shen Yan's presumptuous presence in her Golden Jade Pavilion, directly blocking in front of Lan'er.

Silently and elegantly, he stood up gently and patted the dust on the skirt behind him, and looked at Shen Yan in front of him with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

"My sister can go outside to sprinkle when she is in a bad mood, my Golden Jade Pavilion has never welcomed shrews."

Shen Mo said it easily, and Shen Yan, who listened to it, gritted his teeth.

Shen Yan was extremely annoyed when he saw Shen Mo's appearance, gritted his teeth, and stared straight at Shen Mo in front of him.

Shen Yan said viciously: "When death is on the verge of death, you still have a hard mouth!" ”

"Lan'er, don't give me a slap yet!"

Shen Yan ordered his maids to slap the small ring of their mouths, and they were bound to take this breath.

Shen Mo was silent, but she didn't speak, she was not in a good mood today, and the woman in front of her came to trouble her again, which simply made her a little angry.

But he didn't speak, Lian Bu moved slightly and slowly walked to Shen Yan's side step by step, approached her ear under her puzzled eyes, and whispered:

"I'll see who dares to touch the people of my Golden Jade Pavilion, which arm I will unload if I touch it with any hand, and which courtyard will destroy if the people in that courtyard move, do you want to give it a try?"

Shen Mo said close to Shen Yan's ear, a few words were not loud, but Shen Yan was stunned all of a sudden.

knew that Shen Mo was protecting his maid, but he didn't expect to be like this.

Hearing this, Shen Yan felt a chill and took a step back, her eyes staring at the silence in front of her, she didn't doubt that the sister in front of her would really do what he said before.

At that moment, he also said viciously step by step: "Do you think I will be afraid of you? ”

Shen Yan also sneered, and his footsteps began to follow Xiaohuan and Shen Mo and the others, and he spit out a few words without taking two steps.

"First, when my father returns home today, you, as a subordinate, should remind your young lady to dress up and participate in the family banquet, and second, you dare not say hello when Miss Ben enters the door, but you don't take me, the second miss of the Shen family, in your eyes!"

Shen Yan stared at Xiao Huan fiercely, and his finger with the gemstone ring pointed directly at her.

Shen Yan slowly stopped, stared at the little ring in front of him, and said lightly: "Your master is not sensible, so today I will replace him to teach you a good lesson." ”

Xiaohuan didn't want the young lady to be angry for herself, so she quickly knelt down and admitted her mistake.

"Second Miss forgiveness, it's Xiaohuan who is not good, Xiaohuan will never dare in the future."

Shen Mo hurriedly pulled up the little ring that was kneeling on the ground from the ground, this girl will be soft, and she hasn't tasted enough of being bullied!

Shen Mo stepped forward slightly, stopped Xiaohuan behind him and said lightly, "Don't be afraid." ”

Then he raised his head and looked at Shen Yan in front of him, the coldness in his eyes was unreserved, and he asked word by word: "My silent person, when will it be your turn to teach?" ”

"Let me tell you Shen Yan, Xiaohuan is my person, if you dare to scold her again, I will cut your tongue."

Seeing that Shen Yan in front of him seemed to want to come forward and be silent, he grabbed her neck.

The hand that was pinching Shen Yan's neck did not loosen, but increased its strength, and did not let go until Shen Yan couldn't breathe.

Shen Mo didn't want to be rough like this, after all, rough is still not very elegant for a girl after all.

But Shen Yan is too much, and he can't turn into a soft persimmon for others to pinch.

"You have to be clear about your identity, as long as I live, the identity of this eldest lady of the Shen Mansion will always be mine, you never bow when you see me, but you still expect my people to bow to you, is it possible!"

The silent words were really relieved, and the little dog watched the eldest lady throw herself to the ground in admiration for Sister Xiaohuan.

Shen Mo stared at Shen Yan, who was extremely embarrassed in front of him, and a smile appeared in his eyes, and he said to Shen Yan in front of him with a smile: "Take a good look at who doesn't understand etiquette now." ”

Shen Yan didn't mean to get up from lying on the ground, it seemed that he wanted to take the opportunity to eat Shen Mo's shot.

"Xiaohuan, let's go, today my father is back home, let's go to the family banquet."

Shen Mo ignored Shen Yan on the ground, and played this old routine again, and he didn't grow at all.

I don't know why every time I am a little quieter, Shen Yan will always run to him like a fly and buzz so annoyingly.

Since she is willing to lie on the ground, then lie on the ground, either she can't stand it and get up, or wait for the Yuan family to come to the rescue and help her up, to see who can consume whom, anyway, she doesn't have time to accompany her.

Seeing that Shen Mo changed her previous attitude of resistance, she actually decided to go to the family banquet, which was completely beyond her expectations, and quickly got up from the ground.

Lan'er on the side stepped forward at this moment and gently helped Shen Yan in front of her, her eyes quietly revealing a hint of ridicule.

If it was before, Lan'er would probably be worried, but after seeing Shen Yan's mind clearly, there would be no reason to work for her.

She came up with this plan because she didn't want to go to the family banquet, and now that she agrees to go to the banquet, I'm afraid that this strategy won't be able to continue.

At the moment, my brain is also buzzing, and I don't know what to say, and the changes come too quickly and are a little difficult to react.

"Silence, don't deceive people too much!"

Hearing Shen Yan say this, Shen Mo turned his head and smiled, this Shen Yan is confused, who bullied whom, ran to Jinyu Pavilion three times and twice to cause trouble, and in the end he said that he was bullied.

"Shen Yan, Shen Yan, look at what you look like yourself......"

Shen Mo pointed at Shen Yan and looked at it from top to bottom, looking at Shen Yan uncomfortable, and he didn't know what she was talking about.

"Do you see which woman who married into the palace is like you? Don't say anything else, just look at Princess Pingyang, who never wears gold and silver, and has a simple life, so King Pingyang will not be eaten to death by her all his life. ”

Shen Yan was silently said this, looked at his new clothes and shoes, as well as the gold bracelet and gemstone ring on his hand.

Shen Yan glanced at Shen Mo in front of him viciously, his face was a little annoyed, his face was flushed, his eyes were staring, his eyebrows were lowered, and he said with bad intentions: "Is it like you to wear tattered clothes?" ”

Shen Mo ignored her and continued, this kind of contemptuous provocation was ignored by her, and she naturally had no mood to entangle with Shen Yan.

"There is also the princess Zhengyang, although she was born in the royal family, she has no temper, she treats the people like brothers and sisters, and everyone really supports her."

Shen Yan was in a fog when he heard this, and he didn't know why Shen Mo said such things to himself.

Shen Yan didn't understand what Shen Mo in front of him wanted to say, and scolded a little irritably: "Are you just verbose, what do you want to say after talking for a long time?"

Silently glanced at her contemptuously, walked towards her step by step, and finally looked directly into her eyes in front of her and said loudly:

"Look at you again, I can't wait to put all the valuable things on my body, it is because of you that Lord Wu is too lazy to look at you, as the famous prince of Shuxia Kingdom, he has never seen anything valuable, so ah, you will only disgust him by dressing up like this."

Shen Yan was angry when he heard this, and said viciously: "What did you say? You just can't eat grapes at all, and you don't think grapes are sour. ”

Although the words were not good, Shen Yan felt that there was indeed some truth, King Wu had indeed seen many rare treasures, and this little thing on his body could not attract his attention at all.

Shen Yan felt that there was some truth, but he couldn't refute it in his heart, so he was so angry that he stomped his feet and shook his sleeves, turned his back to the side of his face and said to Shen Mo behind him:

"What do you mean by this, King Wu......"

Before Shen Yan could ask, he was interrupted by Shen Mu's action to stop.

It seemed that Shen Yan in front of him had been moved by his own words, and Shen Mo increased his strength even more.

"Let me tell you, no matter how valuable the things you wear, if you are not valuable, they are also worthless."
