Taking a breath of cool air, Li Xinchen didn't respond to Xu Ling, but just muttered: "Xu Xiaomu, add fuel to the fire, you are really skilled in this hand." ”

If before, Li Xinchen would not care much about this as a lively look, curiosity, everyone has it, whether it is Shen Jungao or Chen Bogu, it is reasonable to be interested in this picture, and it is not impossible for the two sides to evolve into confrontation in the end, but this does not affect the overall situation.

After all, the game between the East Palace and Yangzhou Thorn History is a grand chess game, although the chess game is often changed because of the gains and losses of a chess piece, but it is obvious that the gains and losses of this "Lady Picture" are far from being so powerful.

But now when Li Xinchen saw Xu Ling's smile, he had already realized that this was not just a small confrontation, but a trap set by Xu Ling, a trap that Shen Jungao and Chen Bogu would walk in even if they noticed something.

Originally, with Chen Ji's suppression, the entire court has become a pool of stagnant water again, but whether it is Chen Ji or Xu Ling, what they want is actually not a pool of stagnant water. A pool of stagnant court meant that they could only watch as Yangzhou Assassin continued to accumulate strength in secret.

This is certainly not a good thing for Chen Ji, who has always been jealous of his second son Chen Shuling, and now he is even more suspicious. Chen Shuling is in Yangzhou, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, even if Chen Ji sent and planted a lot of eyeliner, it is difficult to know some of his secret preparations Chen Ji, such as the last assassination outside Guazhou, Chen Ji only had time to know the news, but he was powerless to stop it.

It can be said that Chen Shuling, who is a pool of stagnant water, is the more difficult Chen Shuling to deal with, so what Chen Ji wants to do is to constantly induce Chen Shuling to shoot, suppress and induce again, so as the cycle goes on and on, as Chen Shuling's shadow gradually surfaces, Chen Ji will be able to find out more and more clearly the context laid by his son.

If Chen Ji's suppression was only the first step before, what Chen Ji wants to do now is the second step. And Xu Ling, who is the most clear in the entire Nan Chen's thinking about Chen Ji, will of course take the first step to help Chen Ji do this well.

Last time, Chen Ji did it himself, Xu Ling didn't help, but was warned by Chen Ji because of his hesitation, so this time he definitely didn't allow himself to fall behind.

You can only rush ahead of Your Majesty, and you can't wait for Your Majesty to move.

And it turns out that the effect of this game under Xu Lingbu is quite good. At least now Chen Bogu's appearance has completely turned the booth where this scroll is located into a ring, whether it is from the desire for this scroll in his heart, or from the prestige and face of the East Palace, Shen Jungao will not flinch.

In addition, judging from Zhou Qu and Fu Wei's firm steps forward, the two pillars of the East Palace did not allow Shen Jungao to retreat.

There are many officials and eunuchs present, it can be said that those who can gain a foothold here are either rich or noble, they are all figures with faces in the entire Jiankang Mansion, if Shen Jungao retreats at this time, it will be equivalent to telling so many onlookers that the East Palace can't even deal with Chen Bogu, let alone deal with Chen Shuling.

Perhaps this simple way of competing for financial resources is a bit biased, whether it is the East Palace or the history of Yangzhou Thorn, which is stronger or weaker, it must not only be judged by financial resources, but this financial strength is also a very important part, and secondly, how much money is not only a symbol of financial strength at this moment, but also a symbol of courage and strength.

This is a very important indicator for officials to take sides.

Therefore, this simple bidding has become not simple at all in an instant, and Xu Ling's doing this is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire.

"Snipe and clam fight, who can benefit?" Li Xinchen rubbed his chin lightly and said in a deep voice.

Pei Zilie and Xiao Shilian both glanced at him in surprise, and immediately understood what Li Xinchen meant, so they could only look at each other and smile bitterly. The current Donggong and Yangzhou thorn history are actually a competition between snipes and mussels, although Li Xinchen's description is not very good, but it is a fact.

"Even if it's a battle between the snipe and the clam clasp, we have to win this one first." Fu Wei squinted, and the hand that was originally gently twisting the string of Buddha beads didn't know when it had stopped, clenching tightly, and the green tendons were exposed.

Li Xinchen sighed softly, as Fu Wei said, the current East Palace has no choice, since it has stepped onto the stage, there is no way out.

really didn't want to look at the situation on the stage, Li Xinchen's eyes fell on that painting instead. The words of the shopkeeper of Jubaozhai are still echoing in his ears.

Is Yang Su's family······ What a legendary experience.

"Brother, what are you thinking?" Li Li'er asked in a low voice at this time. The scene in front of her was of course very grand for a girl who came out of the mountains, so Li Li'er had been shrinking behind Li Xinchen since she lit the candle again, and asked timidly at this time.

Li Xinchen's slightly furrowed brows immediately relaxed, and he said with a smile: "It's nothing, it's just that it's quite interesting to look at this painting." ”

"This painting ······" Li Li'er followed Li Xinchen's gaze, gently tugged at the corner of her brother's clothes, and muttered, "Yes, we are as adrift and turbulent as we ······."

Speaking of this, Li Li'er thought of something and hurriedly stopped.

Brother is now fighting hard for the two of them, and he has done his best, and saying this by himself is undoubtedly giving him more pressure.

"Wandering." Li Xinchen said in a deep voice. Although Li Li'er received it in time, he still heard it clearly. Although he now has a place to stay, he is still attached to the Xiao family and the East Palace as a guest secretary and a staff member.

Although the dodder can grow tenaciously upward, it cannot grow into a big tree after all, and if it loses the big tree that it can cling to, it will soon wither.

From another point of view, now Li Xinchen is this dodder seed, even if it is not "upside down", he still has no foundation of his own. Once there is really any accident in the Xiao family or the East Palace, Li Xinchen will not even have room to protect himself, and the only thing waiting for him is to perish together.

Stretched out his hand and patted Li Li'er's shoulder gently, Li Xinchen's voice was very low: "Li'er, don't worry, you will do your best, whatever upside down, what troubled world life is like grass mustard, will leave us, far away from us!" ”

Li Li'er wanted to say something, but when she saw Li Xinchen's expression, she just bowed her head solemnly.

At this time, there was no point in saying anything more, all she could do was silently support her brother. Taking care of her brother's daily life and not causing trouble for her brother is the only thing Li Li'er can do now.

And Li Xinchen's eyes opened suddenly, and a ray of light flashed.

The chaotic times are chaotic, people are like dust, drifting away with the wind, but Li Xinchen doesn't want to be that dust!
