Ouyang Zhen was sitting with his back to the door, but when he heard the sound, he turned his head in surprise, but saw a young man with handsome eyebrows and eyes, and a pair of eyes as bright as cold stars, looking at her eagerly.

There was a hint of ecstasy in his eyes, and he took a few steps to the water pavilion. came to Ouyang Zhen like the wind. Ouyang Zhen only smelled the faint smell of ink on his body, so he saluted him.

Cha Sanshao's clear eyes dimmed, and then he became happy again: "Weichen has seen my aunt and Rou Jieyu. ”

Ouyang Zhen moved to the side quietly, and even so, the long-bodied young man still sat beside her, extremely close to her.

Seeing this, Concubine Yu Jing smiled and said, "You monkey, aren't you tired of seeing the mourning family in the past?" Could it be that today, if you have a distinguished guest, you will abide by the rules? It's really a change of sex. After she finished speaking, she glared at Zha Sanshao kindly, and smiled at Ouyang Zhen: "It's a coincidence today, you are all here, but you have to have lunch before leaving." ”

Ouyang Zhen originally wanted to stay and have a long talk with her, but now he intervened horizontally to check Sanshao, and suddenly had a headache, thinking about what to say, but he didn't know how to say it for a while.

Cha Sanshao skillfully took the tea set of Concubine Yu Jing, made tea by himself, personally served a cup and put it in front of Ouyang Zhen and said, "Rou Jieyu, please!" His eyes sparkled, burning with youthful infatuation, and he could see that she could not hide.

Ouyang Zhen was suddenly a little embarrassed, she thought about it, and said respectfully to Concubine Yu Jing: "Since Concubine Yu Jing has a guest, the concubine will come to visit the concubine next time." ”

She was about to leave, but Cha Sanshao was in a hurry, dodged and stopped her, and said with a slight helplessness: "You really want to go." ”

Ouyang Zhen's temperament changed a little after he was injured, his heart was cold, and he said to him with horizontal eyebrows: "This palace has been beaten and the pain has not disappeared, how dare you test the law again?" I hope that the champion will not stop him. ”

Zha Sanshao was startled by the chill in her eyes and took a step back. Concubine Yu Jing sighed: "Since Rou Jieyu has finally come, don't be in a hurry to leave, although this child is reckless, but he has a good heart." Rou Jieyu can rest assured. ”

Ouyang Zhen collected the coldness in his eyes, and thought about it carefully, although the young man in front of him had thoughts about himself, he had not done anything out of the ordinary after all, and he came this time because he had made a decision after a lot of thought, and the next time he came, he might not have the courage to move forward today.

She thought about it, and nodded slightly. Zha Sanshao breathed a sigh of relief. When Concubine Yu Jing saw that she was willing to stay, she smiled and said, "Go to the back of the mourning family and take a look, I want to ask someone to add an extra pair of chopsticks, don't starve my precious nephew." She seems to love her little nephew very much, and the last sentence is full of maternal love.

After she finished speaking, she called the palace maids, and they helped her away, leaving Ouyang Zhen and Zha Sanshao in the huge water pavilion. Ouyang Zhen glanced up at him and sat silently aside.

Cha Sanshao sat beside her, and the red clay stove on one side made the kettle of water rattle, which made the silence between the two of them more and more silent.

He sighed faintly: "You have lost too much weight. There was a lot of pity in his tone.

Ouyang Zhen looked at his almost translucent palm and smiled coldly: "Thank you for your concern, this palace is very good." She replied unceremoniously, full of alienation and coldness. People can't interface. With that, the two fell silent again.

Ouyang Zhen saw that he only looked at the boiling water in a daze, but he didn't move for a minute, he didn't know what he was thinking, but after all, he helped himself, so he slowed down: "Thank you really for Cha Sanshao's help before, otherwise Liu Zhengsheng wouldn't be so easy to subdue." ”

He seemed to come back to his senses, and looked at her with a wry smile: "Speaking of which, it's still a clever mother, if you hadn't ordered someone to collect evidence outside, Weichen wouldn't have convicted her so easily." ”

Ouyang Zhen remembered Mrs. Liu Guo's hateful eyes looking at him, and smiled slightly mockingly: "Don't you think that the princess of the palace is involved in politics in the harem, and his hand is stretched too long?" ”

Zha Sanshao said: "The harem was originally inseparable from the court. Niangniang's move must have a deep meaning. Besides, Liu Zhengsheng's crime is not a vain death, and Mrs. Liu Guo even embezzled the money of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the emperor is still too soft-hearted. In the previous dynasty, this is the sin of the nine clans. ”

Ouyang Zhen looked at him in surprise when he heard this, his eyebrows and eyes under the official robe precipitated a lot, there was no flying of a teenager, more mature and steady. I think it was just a few months of polishing for the official that gradually made him understand a lot.

It's better to talk like that.

Ouyang Zhen smiled slightly: "The Cha family is also a big family in the Chu State, I don't know if the Cha family has any views on the emperor's policies?" ”

Zha Sanshao was shocked when he heard this, and looked at her suspiciously.

Ouyang Zhen pursed his lips and frowned, only played with the teacup in his hand, and smiled casually: "As far as this palace knows, there are now four major families in Chu, the first is the queen Zhao family, the second is the Li family in the army, and the third is the Yongzhou Wang family, and your Cha family, since the previous dynasty, has gradually faded out of the court, but your father Cha Guogong gave birth to three good sons, your two elder brothers are one literary and one martial, and you are a civil and military all-rounder, and you are deeply used by the emperor." But your father's branch is the most prosperous, and the others are ...... If this palace is not wrong, they all went home to farm, right? ”

Her last sentence was very polite, and she raised her long, distant eyebrows and looked at him with a smile.

Zha Sanshao was shocked when he heard this. Indeed, his Cha family is one of the four major families since the founding of the Chu State, but after several generations, it has not improved much, only his father's house is slightly closely related to the royal family, so his father hates iron and steel and forces him to enter the official career. The two eldest brothers were also driven by their father early to become officials or soldiers. He worked hard for the prosperity of the family and reproduced the glorious history of the Cha family.

But what was her special purpose in telling him all this now?

Zha Sanshao's heart was abrupt, and his mind was chaotic, as if he had caught a trace of clarity, but he didn't seem to be able to grasp her true intentions.

He clenched the palm hidden under the official uniform, paused and said, "If Niangniang wants to say anything, just say it clearly." ”

Ouyang Zhen slowly poured the remaining half cup of tea in his hand in front of him, and said with a smile: "Now the Zhao family can be described as a glorious time, from the court to the locality, the military to the civil affairs have many important positions for them to grasp, this is the emperor's arrangement before he ascended the throne, but now it has become the biggest constraint on his governance, just like this teacup, the emperor now needs another new tea, to fill it, the entire court, also needs fresher blood ......"

Cha Sanshao's heart gradually jumped faster and faster, his eyes deepened, and he said coldly: "Why do you think that what the emperor needs is our Cha family, in case our Cha family and the Zhao family fight to the death, and the emperor sits on the fisherman's profits, then isn't our Cha family the most stupid person?" ”

Ouyang Zhen smiled slightly, reached out to fill his teacup, put it on his slightly pale lips and smiled slightly: "It's not that the emperor needs you, it's the palace that needs you to check the house." A third prince with pure blood, a Rou Jieyu without any background power, is it enough for you to be loyal to the Cha family? ”

Her words were as soft as water, but they were like the loudest thunder that blew his heart blank.
