Changsun Hong has always been worried about coming to Xie Yiyuan in person again, although he has always been very arrogant when he came to Xie Mansion to find someone before, but this time it was different.

Xie Yiyuan betrayed the Xiangwang Mansion and told Anjun Changsun Yan all the news of the Xiangwang Mansion, causing frequent accidents in the Xiangwang Mansion in recent days, and even the eldest grandson Wanran, the eldest grandson Hong's favorite sister, was seriously injured.

With such a person, how can Changsun Hong calm his mind, and how can he easily forgive?

Changsun Hong already thought that the purpose of Yuran coming to Xie Mansion was to see Xie Shangshu, but why did Yuran still think that he should go to see Xie Yiyuan?

Indeed, the knot in his heart is hard to untie. The so-called bell must be tied to the bell, and of course he knows.

But even so, he can't be as free and easy as Yuran.

His eldest grandson Hong just holds a grudge, so what?

Eldest Sun Hong wandered back and forth several times outside Xie Yiyuan's courtyard, his arms around his chest, his brows furrowed, and his face didn't look very good.

If a little maidservant girl walked by, she was even made afraid to speak by the gloomy atmosphere of Changsun Hong, but hurriedly bowed to Changsun Hong and then left quickly.

The moment Changsun Hong stood still, he turned his head and glanced at Xie Yiyuan's closed door from the open courtyard gate.

After hesitating for a long time, he finally got down in his heart and walked in.

Eldest Sun Hong walked outside Xie Yiyuan's door, the wooden door in front of him was delicately decorated but old, he stood in the cold wind, even if he was wearing a thick cloak, he could feel the cold weather. After a moment, he raised his hand and knocked heavily on the door as if he had made up his mind: yes, I'm just too cold, so I want to go in and avoid it, and there is absolutely no other meaning.

After a while, Changsun Hong heard the sound of slow footsteps coming from inside, and stopped all the way at the door.

With a creak, the door opened, and Changsun Hong looked up.

The person who opened the door was Xie Yiyuan, his expression looked a little haggard, he was still wearing yesterday's clothes, and he was still so elegant.

He was very surprised for a moment when he saw that the person knocking on the door was actually Changsun Hong, but when he saw Changsun Hong's complicated and detached expression looking at him, he felt as if he understood.

"Come in." Xie Yiyuan stepped out of the way and said the same.

Changsun Hong didn't respond, but he still followed Xie Yiyuan in, and then helped cover the door.

Xie Yiyuan walked all the way to the table inside, and there was a pot of tea, a teacup, and a book on the table. The window next to the desk was closed, and only a few rays of sunlight came in through the paper window and through the cracks, so the light in the room was not good, it should be said that it was relatively dark.

As soon as the eldest grandson Hong walked in, he felt a chill, he looked around the house, and found that not only was the light not good, but even the charcoal fire was not burning.

Xie Yiyuan sat on the side of the table, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Changsun Hong looking at him with a scrutinizing gaze, so he laughed, and then said, "You never knocked on the door when you came before. ”

The eldest grandson Honggang was just about to sit down, but he was stiffened by Xie Yiyuan's words.

The eldest grandson* suppressed all kinds of dissatisfaction in his heart, he recovered, and suddenly relaxed, he sat down directly and casually, with a casual posture. He raised his chin and said with a smile, "Can't I learn from others?" ”

"Really?" Xie Yiyuan reached out and took a new cup from the side, and then placed it side by side with his own cup. His slow pouring of tea, the smoke curling, looked particularly conspicuous in the winter air, I don't know whose eyes were blurred. Xie Yiyuan picked up one of the cups of tea, and then put it in front of Changsun Hong, he said quietly: "This tea was just scalded and sent by the little guy, you can drink it." ”

"You don't know that I can't drink anything good or bad?" As soon as Xie Yiyuan's words fell, Changsun Hong had already drunk all the tea. He put down the cup, his eyes fell on the rim of the glass, and he didn't raise his eyes for a long time.

Xie Yiyuan didn't seem to care, and poured a cup for Changsun Hong again and handed it over, he saw Changsun Hong drink it again, and the sound of the bottom of the cup hitting the table was muffled, which showed how hard the person who put down the cup was.

This time, Xie Yiyuan did not continue to pour him tea, but slowly put down the teapot.

"Is Miss Eldest Sun okay?" Xie Yiyuan said abruptly.

Changsun Hong's hand holding the cup tightened, and there seemed to be faint green tendons on the back of his hand, he raised his head suddenly, and a pair of eyes were staring at Xie Yiyuan's face, he was trying his best to control his emotions.

"It's okay...... I woke up early this morning. ”

Xie Yiyuan took a sip of tea and said flatly, "Really? It's just wonderful. What about you? What did you come to me for today? Seeing that you are dignified like this, don't hide it with me anymore. ”

"You really want to know?" Changsun Hong asked rhetorically.

"You say, I'll listen." Xie Yiyuan replied quickly.

The eldest grandson Hong looked at Xie Yiyuan silently for a long time, and found that Xie Yiyuan's attitude today was surprisingly calm, and he didn't joke with him anymore. Changsun Hong is not stupid, he took a deep breath, and then sighed even more, and then he leaned back, and the palm of his right hand was propped up on the wooden board spread on the table.

Because of this action, Changsun Hong just tilted his head, his gaze stayed on the roof for a long time, and after a while, he sighed and asked with a wry smile: "Don't you really plan to explain to me?" ”

"What do you mean?" Thank you for asking.

When the eldest grandson Hong heard this, he immediately sat up straight, his left elbow rested on the table, the whole person leaned forward, he half-squinted his eyes, the sharpness of his eyes could no longer be hidden, he frowned and said with a deep smile: "What do I mean?" Thank you, do you really plan to continue to lie to me like this? You know what I'm talking about, and you're still going to pretend that nothing happened to me? ”

"When did you find out?" Xie Yiyuan's face looked a little whiter than just now.

"It was yesterday!" The eldest grandson said suddenly.

Xie Yiyuan lowered his eyes, "So, are you going to ask my master now?" I've caused constant accidents in the Xiangwang Mansion, you won't tolerate it, right? I guess I can't hide it from you for a long time, but I didn't expect you to find out so quickly. ”

"Since you knew you were going to be discovered by me, tell me, why did you do this? You thank me for saying everything you say to me, and the king wants to be unfavorable to my Hunan Palace, so let me be careful. But what is the truth? It was you who thanked Yiyuan for knowing that the king was going to make a move against the Hunan Palace, but he also became the accomplice of the king! Xie Yiyuan slapped his hands on the table with both hands, and a pair of eyes that were usually clear were covered with layers of gloom at the moment, God knows how big the ups and downs of his mood are now. Before, when he was extremely angry, the person he faced was still Yuran, but now when he really faced Xie Yiyuan in person, he immediately felt the difference in his emotions.

"Accomplice?" Xie Yiyuan's expression suddenly calmed down, and he simply stopped hiding it, he obviously just drank a cup of tea, but he still felt that his mouth was dry. The tea was bitter and sweet, but what he tasted now was only bitter. He nodded, and then suddenly sneered, not too loudly, but sounding mocking, "Yes, I'm an accomplice!" But so what? I do know the situation of the Xiang Palace, I never thought of trapping the Xiang Palace, and I regard you as my best friend. But none of this is working!

"If I stand on the side of the Xiang Palace, the Xiang Mansion has a prince, and the prince has a powerful position, so there is no way for the king to shake the Xiang Mansion quickly. But the Xie family is different, although we are the same family, we are not as popular as the prince. If the monarch really did something to the Xie family because of my refusal, then the Xie family would never have the ability to turn over, and the Xiang Wangfu would not be able to help the Xie family because of his loyalty. When you ask me why I did this, have you ever considered whether I am really willing to come to this point?

"You think I've done something wrong, you feel like I've betrayed you, and I understand you perfectly. I also know that one day if you know the truth, no matter how much I explain, you will not understand me. There is a prince in the Xiangwang Mansion for one day, that is, he will always be loyal to the king, and your eldest grandson Hong can only follow the will of the prince. I have told you more than once that if you want to protect the Hunan Palace, there is only one way, that is, to replace it, but this is impossible for you to do it in the Xiang Palace. Therefore, even if one day the Xiangwang Mansion really ends up with the same fate as the Qin family back then, it will be self-inflicted, and no one else is to blame. ”

"You!" Changsun Hong didn't expect Xie Yiyuan to say such things to him.

Xie Yiyuan has always had a peaceful attitude on weekdays, and he can also be in danger when analyzing the situation, and his gentleness and elegance have made a deep impression on the eldest grandson Hongtai. It seems that since he was a child, Changsun Hong has never seen Xie Yiyuan lose his temper with him a few times, and even when he is angry, it is just a little fight.

But this time, Changsun Hong could clearly feel the toughness of Xie Yiyuan's attitude - Xie Yiyuan, he really had such thoughts.

Xie Yiyuan raised his eyes, and the waves under his eyes were overturned, which showed that his emotions were also extremely depressed.

"Even if you hate me so much now, I can't help it. Do you think that only Xiangwangfu is in a predicament? Now me, the current Xie Mansion, why am I not in torment? Xie Yiyuan's voice sounded a lot hoarse.

Eldest Sun Hong was suddenly silenced, he remembered what Yuran had said to him.

"Speaking of Xie Yiyuan, I think he is also very miserable and helpless, in order to protect the life of Xie Fumanmen with his own strength, he is also desperate. Actually, if I don't talk to you about loyalty and disloyalty, trust or betrayal, I think I appreciate him. ”

"He made a risky move, and success or failure always had to be between his thoughts."
