"That's because you've underestimated the enemy." Nan Xuanye could see that Yuan Zhijiang was very confident in himself at the beginning, and he didn't even do his best in battle, so when he fell into the wind, he suddenly panicked.

Once a flaw comes out, it will definitely fail.

At the end of the competition, everyone applauded, and even the emperor praised the two of them, not to mention how proud Yuan Jinzhou was.

After the banquet was over, Yuan Zhijiang did not go back, but asked Nan Xuanye and the others to leave first, and he went to the post house, he didn't need to ask to know that this was where his father lived.

As expected, he proposed to the guard at the door to meet his father, but he was directly refused.

He groaned slightly, and then whispered a few words in the guard's ear, and this time the guard went in and soon came out: "The king, please come in." ”

Yuan Zhijiang stepped into the threshold, and saw Yuan Jinzhou leaning on the soft step, looking a little drunk, he lowered his eyes slightly, and arched his hand: "Father." ”

Yuan Jinzhou glanced at him lazily: "It's here." ”

"Father is drunk?" Yuan Zhijiang was very considerate and said: "Why don't I cook you a night of sobering soup." ”

Yuan Jinzhou immediately sat up, except for his face being a little red, where was he still drunk: "No need." ”

A smile flashed in Yuan Zhijiang's eyes, and he coughed lowly: "Are you really not drunk?" Drinking some decanting soup is good for your body. ”

Yuan Jinzhou has a lot of problems, he hates ginger the most, but every time he puts this thing in the decanting soup, he really can't drink it, so he decisively diverts the topic: "You said it was for the hereditary position, can you take this seriously?" ”

Originally, he didn't want to see this son, and he probably didn't plan to see anyone, but he asked the guards to pass the word that he was here for hereditary status, and he changed his mind.

Yuan Zhijiang touched his nose: "If I don't say that, you won't see me." ”

"What, you're not here for the position?" Yuan Jinzhou knew what kind of temperament this son had, so he simply said bluntly: "I thought you were very interested in this position, otherwise you wouldn't have come to see me in a hurry." ”

Yuan Zhijiang put his hands behind his shoulders and sighed: "You think too much." ”

Yuan Jinzhou raised his eyebrows and asked people to serve tea, but he was going to have a long talk with him.

"Tea doesn't have to be." Yuan Zhijiang said: "You know that I don't like to drink tea, so I want to tell you about Nan Xuanye." ”

Yuan Jinzhou looked at him, his eyes deepened: "Tell me about it." ”

"You don't have to guard against me." Yuan Zhijiang was a little helpless, although he knew that his father loved this child who had been lost since he was a child, but when he saw it in person, this attitude still made him a little uncomfortable.

Yuan Jinzhou chuckled: "It's that my father thinks too much, so tell me what you think." ”

Yuan Zhijiang was open-minded in the end, and he didn't take this matter too seriously, and instead said: "Actually, I think that if it is the hereditary throne of Dingbei, Nan Xuanye is indeed more suitable than our brothers." ”

"Why?"

Yuan Zhijiang lifted the hem of his clothes and sat on the chair mountain, the posture of the golden knife was the same as Yuan Jinzhou: "I just think he is suitable, whether it is temperament or ability." ”

After this period of observation, he has been very sure that Nan Xuanye has a stable temperament and a bottom line, and will not be fascinated by power, let alone ignore the life and death of others for his own selfish interests, compared to his brothers who have broken their heads in order to determine the throne of the king of the north, it is obvious that Nan Xuanye is more suitable.

He didn't hide these words, he just told the truth, and after finishing speaking, he found that Yuan Jinzhou looked at him with a hint of appreciation in his eyes, and couldn't help scratching his head: "I'm just telling the truth, if you think something is wrong, just don't say it." ”

Yuan Jinzhou raised a palm: "No, you're right, I didn't expect that you would see through the temperament of these people." ”

Should I say that we are worthy of brothers?

Yuan Zhijiang asked again: "Then what do you think?" ”

"Before I answer you, I have a question." Yuan Jinzhou didn't answer and asked, "I really want to know how you feel about your fifth brother after this period of getting along?" ”

In the past, although they were always in the North Plains, in fact, these sons didn't interact much since they became adults and set up their own doors, and even when they met, they talked with guns and sticks, and there were temptations for each other, only the sixth child was unwilling to get involved in these things, so he rarely got together with them.

Yuan Zhijiang groaned slightly, considering whether to tell the truth, so he listened to Yuan Jinzhou say: "Tell the truth, I don't want to hear lies." ”

Since his father is going to tell the truth, then he has nothing to hide, he said slowly: "My fifth brother is not a fuel-efficient lamp, his mind is weird, and sometimes I can't see through him." ”

Yuan Jinzhou was a little curious: "Then tell me about his performance these days." ”

Although Yuan Zhijiang didn't know what his father wanted to do, he still answered truthfully, and he didn't miss a bit.

But he didn't see Yuan Jinzhou When he heard him say that Yuan Xinghan found Nan Xuanye first, a trace of darkness flashed in his eyes.

When he was finished, he said, "What does my father think?" ”

Yuan Jinzhou lowered his eyes slightly, this kid wanted to inquire about his opinion, so he yawned deliberately and said, "When you are old, you will be sleepy at every turn." ”

This is the order to expel the guest, Yuan Zhijiang sighed: "Father, I finally know why the emperor commented on you like that." ”

It's not just the old fox who has always been cunning, although it's a bit disrespectful to say that.

Yuan Jinzhou smiled: "Since you know, you should know that you can't fight your old man, so hurry back to sleep." ”

Yuan Zhijiang admired this old man from the bottom of his heart, and in desperation, he had to get up and say goodbye, and when he left the post house, he realized that he didn't find out anything, but was tricked out by the old fox A lot of news.

My father is really living more and more like an old child.

Early the next morning.

Nan Xuanye and his wife got up early, thinking that it was okay, so they planned to go to see Yuan Jinzhou, mainly because they were worried that he drank too much yesterday and was afraid that he would be uncomfortable today.

The two of them went to the post house unimpeded, and there was no notice, and the guards let them in directly, as soon as they entered the courtyard, they saw Yuan Jinzhou boxing, and he usually looked gentle and elegant, but in fact, he was quite imposing when he boxed, not at all like the pampered King of Dingbei.

The two of them didn't bother, and when he finished practicing, Nan Xuanye spoke up: "Good boxing technique." ”

Yuan Jinzhou turned around and saw Qin Miaomiao, and suddenly his face was overjoyed: "Why are you here?" ”

Nan Xuanye smiled: "Don't worry about you, come and see." ”

"I'm not worried about anything." Yuan Jinzhou waved his hand and said: "I originally planned to look for you, I just have something to tell you, come and sit in the house first, you too, you don't say a word when you come, let Miao Miao stand for a long time." ”

He brought people into the house, and then called for tea and a seat.
