Zijin was stunned for a moment, and then said nonchalantly, "So what?" ”

The king of Chu looked at Zijin's appearance of not entering the oil and salt, sighed, and persuaded, "What happened back then can't be all blamed on your father, after so many years, you don't know how the fourth brother treats you, why can't you give the fourth brother a chance?" ”

"Shall I give him a chance?" Zijin laughed self-deprecatingly, "Who gave me a chance?" ”

"You can even accept your stepmother, can't you be considerate and considerate of the fourth brother?"

King Chu doesn't understand very well, obviously the fourth brother is the closest person to Zijin in the world now, but his niece doesn't play cards according to common sense, she gets along well with her stepmother and has a stiff relationship with her biological father, once the fourth brother tries to interfere in her affairs, the relationship between the two people can't even maintain the apparent closeness.

Zijin smiled bitterly and shook his head, "This is different, Sixth Uncle, you don't understand what happened back then?" ”

King Chu stared at Zijin for a while before he sighed, "Okay, you have always been measured." ”

Zijin lowered his head and did not answer.

Measured? Maybe!

"Shizi, is there any problem with going back to Jizhou next year?" On the way from the Chu Wangfu to the Yan Wangfu, I endured it all night, and finally asked.

"Don't listen to the sixth uncle's nonsense, what can it do?" Zijin lowered his head and placed the chess pieces, comforting him casually, but his eyes were deep.

Knowing that Zijin didn't want to say more, Yexin didn't ask questions, so he said, "I'm going to make tea for Shizi", turned around and took out a complete set of tea sets from the room, and sat down not far from Ion Jin.

"Where's Qingshu?" Zijin set up the chess pieces and asked without raising his head.

Yexin put the cup in Zijin's hand and said, "Go and help Shizi choose the fabric of the wedding dress." ”

Zijin took a cup of tea in his hand, raised his eyebrows and said, "Help me pick out wedding clothes?" ”

"Wedding dress." Yexin silently changed his words.

"Yexin, I don't think you have understood yet" Zijin put down the teacup and said lightly, "I am different from those boudoir ladies, I am the prince of King Yan, and in the future, I will attack the lord of Yan to guard the northern border and fence the country."

After marrying Su Yanqi, he will return to Jizhou with me, and in the future, he will not be allowed to take the imperial examination, join the army, not do business, not have concubines, and not leave the house without authorization, and his children will also follow my surname Xiao.

The marriage between the two of us has always been that he married me, and he was my concubine. ”

At the end, Zijin looked at Yexin's stunned appearance, pinched her face, and asked while feeling good, "Do you understand?" ”

It's not that she's too sensitive, it's that Yexin's position is too important, and if Yexin can't handle her attitude towards Su Yanqi, it will be a very troublesome thing.

Yexin tilted his head slightly, saved his face from Zijin's hands, and nodded, "Yexin understands." ”

"It's good to understand." Zijin withdrew his hand and picked up the teacup with a smile, and said, "You remember to explain to Junxing Junyan and them, Su Moyun is not their master, so you don't have to take him too seriously." ”

"Yes."

Seeing that Yexin returned to the tea case again, Zijin picked up the chess pieces again and looked at the chessboard.

Liang Guogong is the prince's person, and his son is the eldest brother's person, and he doesn't know which side Su Yanqi, the princess of Yanwang, will stand on.

……

"Ayah, it's time to drink the medicine."

Xiao Yuan handed the medicine bowl to the prince Xiao Ye who was leaning on the bed, and after he finished drinking, he handed over a cup of warm water to rinse his mouth.

Xiao Ye took a sip of water to suppress the bitter taste in his mouth, and then said to Xiao Yuan with a smile: "I drank these bitter juices all day long, and now even the white water tastes bitter." ”

Xiao Yuan handed the medicine bowl to the palace man beside him, and said, "If Aya doesn't want to drink medicine, he should recuperate, and it is only right to take care of his body as soon as possible." ”

"How do you know that your father has not had a good life to recuperate?"

"Yesterday, when Liu Yuan came to diagnose the pulse, my son asked, it is clear that you are thinking too much and you have been ill for a long time!" Xiao Yuan was angry when he saw Xiao Ye's indifferent look, and his tone was stiff, "If you are recuperating well, how can you still be like this!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yuan regretted it, Xiao Ye was already in poor health, if he was angry again, then his sin would be great, not to mention anything else, Emperor Xuanwu would not let him go.

Xiao Ye didn't expect that he was just a joke rhetorical question that made Xiao Yuan so angry.

As a self-proclaimed father, he felt the need to care about his eldest son's mental health, so he asked, "Have you been experiencing anything lately?" ”

"No, no."

Xiao Yuan subconsciously denied it, but it strengthened Xiao Ye's idea that his son was in trouble.

"I know it's a little difficult for you to learn those things with your Ah Weng now, if there is anything that can't be solved, you can say it, and help you learn more for your father?"

Seeing that Xiao Yuan lowered his head and refused to speak, Xiao Ye was not in a hurry, but just drank warm water one by one with a teacup.

Ban Yu,

Xiao Yuan raised his head, with a resolute momentum, and said, "My son overheard a few officials say a few days ago, saying that you are not in good health, and you may ...... They wanted to support the king of Jin. ”

"What is it called, King Jin! That's your second uncle. ”

Xiao Yuan stiffened his neck and didn't talk.

Xiao Ye rubbed the corners of his forehead and said with a headache, "You have been struggling with this matter for so long?" ”

Why is this kid a little stupid? Zijin understands that he is still drilling the horns!

"Shouldn't it?" Xiao Yuan said angrily, "They dare to think about your crown prince, they don't know what to do!" ”

Xiao Ye looked at Xiao Yuan's angry appearance, and asked calmly, "Are you angry with them, they took refuge in your second uncle?" Or are you angry that they don't take the prince as a father in their eyes? Or is it because of something else? ”

"This ......"

Xiao Yuan pursed his lips, feeling a sense of shame that his mind was being insighted.

He received an orthodox Confucian education from childhood to adulthood, coupled with Emperor Xuanwu's protective character, this dynasty attaches great importance to the righteousness of relatives, and now it is embarrassing for him to admit that he was hostile to his uncle because he was afraid that his position would be threatened after hearing the words of those people.

On the contrary, it was the crown prince, who smiled after seeing Xiao Yuan's reaction, revealing an expression that was indeed so.

"Jiro has grown up."

The prince's tone was quite pleased.

What the?!

Xiao Yuan looked at the prince in disbelief, what Aya said just now?

Shouldn't he be angry?

Angry that his son began to think of that position when he had not yet ascended the throne of God.

Obviously, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's brain circuitry is not something that ordinary people can understand. He didn't feel that there was anything wrong with his son's behavior of guarding against the vassal king and wanting to protect his future interests. On the contrary, I am quite pleased with this.

"In the past, I always thought that your personality was too gentle and not suitable for being born in the royal family, but now it seems that I think too much, you are like this, very good!"

The prince patted Xiao Yuan on the shoulder, and suddenly felt a sigh of having a son in my family.
