Song Nanzhou took Wen Xiang to the main hall.

Although he looked like he loved to answer, Wen Xiang said a few words before he replied perfunctorily one or two sentences, but he couldn't extinguish Wen Xiang's enthusiasm for wanting to speak.

As a wrench, she is really lonely as a dog.

Even in the face of this living Hades who made her afraid and jealous at first, her heart was full of gratitude at this time, she was a living creature who could listen to her.

Until I saw Xu Shen again.

It was about four or five o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun had not yet set, but it had passed its most powerful time.

The bright and gentle sunlight shone directly through the window and sprinkled into the room, and you could faintly see some fine dust dancing in the light.

Xu Shen was sitting in such a sunshine, he had already changed out of his court clothes at this time, wearing a calamus pattern round-necked straight jacket, with a smile on his handsome face, and was talking to a young man politely and reservedly.

As soon as he seemed to hear the movement at the door, he raised his eyes and looked over.

There seemed to be a sudden ripple in those deep eyes, like a flash of a lake, fleeting in the dark shadow of the long eyelashes.

That kind of inexplicable palpitations and sadness or joy poured out again, making Wen Xiang almost unbearable.

No matter how big her heart is, she can't help but think, could it be that this Lord Xu Xiangxu has something to do with her? Otherwise, why every time I see him, I always feel like I want to be close and resist?

Thinking like this, he stared at Xu Shen vigorously, trying to see something.

As if sensing something, Xu Shen's gaze also fell on her.

Although it was only for a brief moment, he looked back, but Wen Xiang swore that she was absolutely not mistaken.

She suddenly had a bold idea, this Lord Xu, would he know that her wrench was unusual?

"Big brother, you're finally here." The young man who accompanied Xu Shen seemed to have noticed their arrival, and got up with a smile and said, "Lord Xu has been waiting for a while. ”

Wen Xiang's blood boiled when she heard this voice, this voice was the second master who had an affair with the maid in the prince's house!

She couldn't help but look at him, but saw that the young man in front of her was somewhat similar to Song Nanzhou, but he was shorter than Song Nanzhou and looked thinner. But when he laughed, he was cheerful and innocent, and there was no gloom or gloom at all. It's too different from the image of the thief-eyed villain she imagined.

If you really can't look at people!

Wen Xiang couldn't help but look at Song Nanzhou with pity, if that maid was really his roommate or something-boy, you are the same as your old man, and your head is also green.

At this time, Xu Shen also stood up, raised his hand and saluted Song Nanzhou: "Xu came to visit rashly, didn't disturb the prince." ”

Song Nanzhou smiled slightly: "Xu Xiang doesn't have to be polite, you and I have already made an appointment." ”

raised his hand to invite Xu Shen to sit down, and then looked at Song Nianbei beside him: "Lord Xu, I have a reception here, and you go back to guard your mother." ”

Song Nianbei obediently retired: "Big brother chats with Xu Xiang slowly." It's rare for Xu Xiang to come to the house, so I'll let people prepare a banquet, and Xu Xiang will stay in the house to eat tonight, right? ”

Xu Shen hurriedly said: "Don't bother, when I was about to go out, the old mother of the family, Teter, asked me to go back to the house early to accompany her to dinner." I should go back after a few words with the prince. ”

Song Nianbei glanced at Song Nanzhou again, and when he nodded, he stopped persuading and led the maid out of the main hall.

Looks like a good brother who is well-behaved and obedient.

……

Wen Xiang was struggling to the end, whether to tell Song Nanzhou that his little brother who seemed to be well-behaved but not only stole others behind his back, but also sharpened his knife to calculate that his little brother was not a good person, so he heard Song Nanzhou speak: "This parrot brother is the one that Lord Xu wants to ask me to train?" ”

Xu Shen was looking for this excuse to come to the door, and when he heard the words, he brought up the birdcage placed aside: "It's this one, it's going to be bothered by the prince of the world." ”

Wen Xiang's attention suddenly turned to the parrot in the cage, this is a snow-white parrot, only a pinch of tender yellow crown feathers on the head, very beautiful and proud, standing on the perch branch with his head held high, two small black eyes looking at the human in front of him as if with contempt.

Song Nanzhou whistled at it, but the parrot still ignored it, his little eyes became more and more contemptuous, stared at Song Nanzhou for a while, and then took care of his feathers with his curved beak.

"It's kind of interesting." Song Nanzhou chuckled, "Xu Xiang can rest assured that he will leave it with me, and when the training is done, I will send it to you—by the way, what day is Old Lady Xu's birthday?" ”

"April 20." Xu Shen replied with a smile, seeing that Song Nanzhou's attention was on the parrot in front of him, his gaze seemed to be uncontrollable, and once again fell on the blood jade wrench on Song Nanzhou's thumb.

This time, not only Wen Xiang noticed it, but Song Nanzhou also noticed it, the corners of his lips curled slightly, but he didn't notice it, and took a thin wooden branch to tease Brother Parrot intently.

"It was going to be a very lively day." He said casually.

Xu Shen's expression on his face did not show any abnormality, and when he heard this, he took out the prepared post: "If the prince is free that day, he might as well go to the house to be lively." ”

"Xu Xiang personally came to deliver the post, even if I don't have time that day, I have to squeeze out the time." Song Nanzhou took the post with a smile and glanced at it: "It's hard to find the Mobao daughter who is said to be Xu Xiang outside, I still don't believe it." Now that I've seen it, I'm really convinced. ”

"The prince is falsely praised."

The two of you have been polite to me for a while.

Xu Shen asked casually: "Does the prince know that as soon as you left the palace with your front foot, there was news that the Queen Mother was angry with His Majesty?" ”

Song Nanzhou couldn't pretend that he didn't know anything, and he couldn't be worried when he heard the words, after all, his old Xu Shen also knew something, and he didn't pretend to be like it in front of him, so he smiled lightly: "Naturally." The Queen Mother intended to make a big fuss, and I heard it before I left the palace gate. I wonder if when Xu Xiang left the Heart Cultivation Palace, His Majesty could come up with a way to deal with it? ”

Xu Shen sighed in his heart, Emperor Jing gave the Queen Mother a chance to protect him, but he was not worried at all, this temperament was really cold-blooded and ruthless.

"The prince doesn't have to worry, before Xu left the palace, His Majesty went to Shoukang Palace in person to have a secret conversation with the Queen Mother, and after coming out, I heard that the Queen Mother was no longer in trouble. And those rumors of the palace maids were also ordered by the Queen Mother to deal with them personally, but they were extremely evil, intending to drive a wedge between the Queen Mother and Her Majesty. ”

Song Nanzhou then laughed more and more heartlessly, "I know that the old woman of the Queen Mother is no longer His Majesty's opponent now." His Majesty has endured her for so many years, and there is no reason to continue to endure it. ”

Xu Shen paused before nodding with a smile.

The Queen Mother's faction turned out to be powerful, especially in the first few years when Emperor Jing ascended the throne, the Queen Mother's faction almost suppressed Emperor Jing, who couldn't raise his head. But Emperor Jing is not an ordinary person, otherwise this supreme throne would not be his turn to sit. After nearly 20 years of dormant patience, the Queen Mother's faction now seems to be the same as before, but in fact, the inside has long been broken up by Emperor Jing, and it is no longer the same as before.

The Queen Mother is also old, and she has had a smooth life in the past few years. I haven't fought with Emperor Jing for a long time, but this time I just started it, and I was suppressed by Emperor Jing.

However, Xu Shen also believes that the Queen Mother will not admit defeat easily. A woman without a son can climb all the way to the back position of the mother's world from a young talent, and has been standing in the harem until she becomes the queen mother.

However, whether it is the Queen Mother or Emperor Jing, it is not for them to say more.

"When the first emperor, the queen mother was just a talented person and suffered a lot, and later, the queen mother became the queen, and none of the people who bullied and trampled on her were gone."

This is mentioning Song Nanzhou, it was he who made the Queen Mother fall a big step this time, and the Queen Mother will not let him go easily.

Song Nanzhou was slightly surprised, before today, there was no intersection between him and Xu Shen. Even Xu Shen must have some purpose when he approached him now, but Xu Shen was able to do this, which still surprised him.

He suddenly lost the interest in being with Xu Shenxu and the snake, casually dropped the thin wooden branch, and said lightly: "Thank you Xu Xiang for reminding him." I don't say dark words in front of the Ming people, Xu Xiang secretly investigated me before he found me, and he held my handle, and now he gave me a kind reminder - Xu Xiang is like this, what is the so-called thing? ”

They all know that what kind of training is just an excuse.

Xu Shen looked at it with a sincere face: "Don't be annoyed, Xu is not trying to coerce the prince by taking the handle of the prince, just because Xu has a reluctant invitation to the prince, and he has never had any personal relations with the prince, so he is worried that coming to the door rashly will make the prince unhappy." That's why people checked it, if the prince needs Xu's help, Xu can also help you. ”

He saw that Song Nanzhou's face was slightly softened, so he continued: "Xu just wants to express Xu's sincerity to the prince, and has no other meaning. ”

Song Nanzhou said with a smile: "Xu Xiang also said, you are a reluctant invitation, if your reluctant invitation makes me very embarrassed, I have to refuse you, can Xu Xiang be tight-lipped about what you know?" ”

Xu Shen was solemn, and he just raised his hand and swore an oath: "Don't worry, I said that it was a reluctant request, if the prince still rejected me in the end, I would not hold a grudge because of this." Xu still has this kind of ethics. ”

Song Nanzhou was still smiling slightly, and he glanced at Xu Shen before he said, "What does Xu Xiang need me to do?" ”

"Can you give this wrench in the hand of the prince to Xu?" Xu Shen pondered for a moment, and then asked straight to the point.

Song Nanzhou turned the warm incense on his thumb, and turned Wen Xiang, who was shocked by Xu Shen's words, dizzy, and a flash of clarity flashed in his slightly drooping eyes.

Xu Shen approached him, sure enough, for this wrench.

From the time he got this finger to now, it has only been more than three months.

And he took him out, it seems that there were only two times, once with Tang Shaozong and others to run horses on Zhuangzi, and then he took her to the hunting ground.

Both times, he didn't meet Xu Shen.

Therefore, he could conclude that before this, Xu Shen would never have a chance to see this wrench.

Moreover, this wrench has only been born in the past two days.

It was just weird, and Xu Shen came to the door, making it hard for him not to think that Xu Shen knew the weirdness of this wrench.
