"Actually, it's not much of a problem to take you out to play, but you tell the royal brother truthfully what the reason for going out this time is, otherwise I will definitely not help with this favor!" Zong Zheng Jingshuo's position was rare and firm, don't think that he didn't find that Xia Mu had been a little uneasy recently.

Since the day Yan An disappeared into the upper study, Xia Mu has been staring closely at the direction of the door every day. She was very nervous whenever someone came by, but when she saw her face, she was very disappointed. Originally, Zongzheng Jingshuo thought that their relationship was hot for Yan An, but now that he looks at it like this, Xia Mu seems to be very concerned.

"I, I just want to go out and hang out." Xia Mu said that he lacked confidence, and even began to bow his head unconsciously.

"You tell the imperial brother that you are going to find Yan An?" Zongzheng Jingshuo no longer changed the topic, but firmly chose to attack directly.

"Huh? Hehe, how could it be, how could I have a strange relationship with him. The strange thing is that as soon as Zong Zheng Jingshuo mentioned Yan An, Xia Mu habitually came to death and refused to admit it, but after saying that, she was weak again.

"Isn't it for him? Then why are you so abnormal day by day. It's a shame that he still showed me his heart to win your affection, since I don't have to hide it for him, anyway, you don't have any feelings for him, I'll go to Qiqi Father and ask him to take away Yan An, the person who wanted to deceive you one day, and save you from looking upset. Zong Zheng Jingshuo was about to leave, he still didn't believe that it was so difficult to let Xia Mu tell the truth.

"Brother Huang, don't go, don't go. I said, I said it can't be done? Xia Mu hugged Zongzheng Jingshuo's arm and kept coquettish, "I have a little affection for him, but I swear we didn't do anything, I promise!" ”

Xia Mu almost raised his hand and swore when he spoke, "Then tell me what he told you, okay." ”

"Someone stopped me in a serious way, really tried all kinds of ways, oh, no, it should be coercion and temptation. He threatened me not to stop you, and said that as long as he was there, you should not want to be with anyone else. ”

"What do you say, can I, a prince, trust him? We fought, you didn't know how miserable he was, and in the end, I still agreed to see him so pitiful, or you still want to talk, it's a dream. ”

For these words, Xia Mu's point of view is to listen to it, the people in this world who want to fight the boss are definitely not born yet, not to mention Zongzheng Jingshuo, and what are the things like?

This thing has to start with the cycling competition back then, you must know that this is the black history that Zongzheng Jingshuo has always been reluctant to mention, after all, losing to a gentle and gentle literati is not something worth showing off, and it is he who is ashamed of that race.

After being thrown off the horse by Yan An for the last time, Zongzheng Jingshuo was lying on the ground covered in mud and covered his face with his hands, it was really embarrassing, and with Yan An's bad temper, he couldn't escape the next ridicule, so he simply lay down and pretended to be dead.

But the words of ridicule did not come for a long time, and Zong Zheng Jingshuo slowly opened his closed eyes, only to find that Yan An had been looking at him expressionlessly with his hands outstretched, and he was a little embarrassed to try to get up on his own but failed.

So in the end, he still grabbed those hands and said stiffly, "Don't you want me to be grateful to you, I told you that this is impossible, let the master admit defeat and you still have to wait for the next life." ”

Yan An smiled, didn't say anything, just pointed to the sunset in the distance and didn't say a word.

But it was this attitude that scared Zong Zheng Jingshuo, "If you have something, just talk about it, what's the matter with pretending to be so deep, people who don't know will think that the master is afraid of you, what does it look like." ”

"Say what? Say you're too weak and have a bad head? Yan An provoked, with a nonchalant expression.

"You don't understand the kindness of others, what are you doing, the master doesn't want to serve you anymore, it's strange that someone likes you with your temper." Zong Zheng Jing Shuo retorted sharply, really, Yan An can see this face, and there is no trace of merit in the rest.

"Whether I can find the right person or not doesn't bother the fourth prince, but if you keep being so simple-minded and well-developed, are you sure you can protect the people you want to protect?" Yan An asked seriously.

But suddenly Yan An became so serious, and for a while, Zong Zheng Jingshuo was a little uncomfortable, "Master, I don't need to be so smart, do I?" Whatever happens, my brother will stand up to it, and I believe that my brother and my father can do it. ”

Yan An laughed arrogantly, "Should I evaluate His Highness as naïve?" Being in the royal family is still so simple, don't you know that if you take a wrong step, you will become completely skinless in this cannibalistic place? Even if you believe in His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but you really won't hold him back with the way you look now? ”

"From ancient times to the present day, there is no such thing as a bloodless handover, is there such a thing? You should understand that as a prince you have to fight for this country, whether you want to or not. The blood on your body is absolutely decisive, you can't be alone outside, can you? Do you think you can protect your sisters? Yan An asked without a hint of joke, and even a little serious.

"Why can't I protect it, my father and brother will never treat them badly, I'm sure of that." Zong Zheng Jingshuo refused to admit defeat and went back, but only in exchange for Yan An's laughter.

"If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince succeeds to the throne and is isolated and helpless, how long can he protect him? Can he really refuse when neighboring countries ask for peace? And you can only watch from the sidelines, enjoying the preferential treatment brought to you by the status of the prince? ”

Yan An asked sharply, Zong Zheng Jingshuo wanted to refute several times, but there was always a voice in his heart blocking him, and he really couldn't say a word.

"Actually, belonging to this country doesn't mean anything to me," Yan An said such rebellious words in front of Zong Zheng Jingshuo, but he had no intention of stopping.

"But there are people and things in this country that I care about, and she will definitely care. And I care about what she cares about, so I want you to stand up and protect her, that's all. And what I can do will definitely do it for her, but you are different. ”

"You like tranquility, don't you?" Zong Zheng Jingshuo also put away his usual cynicism at this time and became serious, in fact, he began to suspect it from the first meeting in the study, but he had no evidence.

"Yes!" Yan An said more decisively, without the slightest intention to hide, and he was not even afraid of being heard.
