The two brothers and sisters finished discussing the affairs of the Yu family, and then called breakfast to come in and eat.

Zhong Huan looked at Shen Shen who still looked like he didn't know what to eat, thought about it, and discussed with her: "You and I are actually not people who are proficient in scheming, why don't you invite Xiao Han to come over?" ”

“…… Senior brother, is Xiao Han's identity not just a child of the Xiao family? Shen Shen asked him curiously.

Zhong Huan looked at her with a smile, his eyes a little evasive: "Why do you think so?" ”

"Back then, in Youzhou, although Xiao Han was respectful and docile when facing Xiao Kang, there were too many things in Xiao Han's hands.

"Moreover, I always have a feeling that Xiao Dare is not just his own attitude towards Xiao Han, but also has a trace of respect for him. I have always wondered where this respect came from. ”

Shen Shen frowned and said, "It's for this reason that although I don't hate Xiao Han at all, I can't get close to him anyway - mysterious people are the most troublesome." ”

Zhong Huan smiled, shook his head, and said, "He does have some forces of his own. Although those forces are closely related to the Xiao family, they have been out of the Xiao family's control and have become his own power. ”

"Xiao Dang, isn't he annoyed?" Shen Shen Daqi.

Zhong Huan lowered his head and looked at the porridge bowl in his hand: "What are you annoyed about?" This was originally Xiao Kang's intention - all eggs can't be put in one basket. ”

Shen Shen was stunned.

"Not to mention the one on the throne today, it is the two previous emperors of Great Xia, and they are also very jealous of the Xiao family. Xiao Kang's father died early in the prime of life, although it was indeed an old injury left by the fight against Beidi, but no one can say whether the Great Xia Emperor did anything in it. ”

The corners of Zhong Huan's mouth showed slight mockery.

Shen Shen was shocked by his words, and after a while, Fang snorted, "No...... The first emperor was so benevolent, when Xiao dared to lead Youzhou weakly, the first emperor didn't say a word......"

"Since ancient times, you have been one. Although it is Youzhou that fights Beidi head-on, the location of Yanzhou is the most important thing to help Youzhou to the north, the capital to the south, and Silla to the east.

"Although Xiao Zhu, the father of Xiao Kang, only received a Youzhou Festival envoy, the Yanzhou Festival Envoy was his old subordinate back then. It can be said that the Xiao family has almost 10% control over Youyan and Youyan.

"But as soon as Xiao Zhu died, Xiao Dare was already struggling to support a Youzhou. Where can I still take care of Yanzhou?

However, in three years, the envoy of Yanzhou Jiedu was found in the wrong place and forced him to be relieved and returned to the field. And what about Yanzhou? The current Yanzhou is only half of Yanzhou back then! ”

When Zhong Huan said this, he only felt a long sullen breath in his chest, and he couldn't go on.

Seeing him bow his head and take a big sip of porridge, Shen Shen put down his chopsticks with a little weakness, and after a while, Fang Qiqi asked Ai Ai: "Senior brother, are you, are you annoying me......

"What am I annoying you for?" Zhong Huan reached out and took another bun to nibble, and said vaguely, "This world has nothing to do with me." ”

Shen Shen puffed out his mouth, not knowing what to say.

"I've probably heard some rumors about your background. It's just that those are just rumors. I didn't take it entirely seriously. Zhong Huan swallowed the bun in his mouth and looked up at Shen Shen, "After all, I trust my own eyes and ears more than the so-called truth." ”

Therefore, the story of the so-called Taizong's legacy arranged by the queen mother, the senior brother still has doubts in his heart......

He wouldn't believe it?!

Shen Shen's heart became complicated for a while.

If it was really just such a life experience, she was afraid that she would have told her senior brother thousands of times when she was wandering the rivers and lakes with her master and brother. I can't say it, I will show off proudly, and let my senior brother line up, whether he should be called the county lord or the county lord.

But she wasn't.

Then the senior brother refused to believe it.

The senior brother refused to believe it because the senior brother also felt that it was not a big deal, and it would not make Shen Shen keep silent at all.

The more Shen Shen thought about it, the more happy he felt in his heart, his face turned to a sunny day, he salivated, and climbed directly from the back of his couch to Zhong Huan's side, grinning, leaning on Zhong Huan's shoulder, and said coquettishly:

"In the past, as long as I left the palace, my senior brother would call a group of people. I don't want to see them today, so I want to chat and drink with my senior brother. Okay? ”

Zhong Huan's heart softened into a puddle of water by her little head, gritted his teeth and turned around and gently knocked her head: "How old are they?" It's still so bad! I'll see what you'll do when you get married in the future! ”

Shen Shen touched the position where he was beaten, leaned back to Zhong Huan, and muttered while picking food from the dishes on his table: "Aunt Shi said that the queen mother has never taken care of mundane affairs by herself in her life, why do I have to learn?" I don't want to learn either. ”

"That's because the Queen Mother entered the palace directly from the boudoir, and there were a lot of palace maids, so naturally she didn't need to learn. What's wrong? Do you also want to be a lady in the palace? Zhong Huan's eyes widened, pushed her away, and reached out to poke at the corner of her forehead, "Just to be lazy, you still want to sell yourself?" That's a lot of fun! ”

Shen Shen rolled into Zhong Huan's arms like a turtle with his head in his arms, and said in a muffled voice: "I will be the county lord for the rest of my life, and I don't have to worry about these things!" ”

Zhong Huan, who was stiff, hurriedly pushed her up: "How many days can you live in the County Lord's Mansion?" You're going to get married in a year or two, do you want to let Youxin Zhao Zhen take care of the house for you? ”

"Not really." Shen Shen didn't notice Zhong Huan's strange appearance, and he was tired of his shoulder, and counted him with his fingers: "The old Zongzheng Temple gave him a list." Although I am the county lord's mansion, the regulations are similar to the princess's mansion.

"Yi Ling, Si Cheng, and Record, one each, eight Si Shi, two main bookkeepers, two confessors, two housekeepers, and household officials, all of which have titles. The other people who served, I am afraid that the queen mother and the royal brother will send a lot of them.

"I'm just not going to do anything right now, just learn how to manage people and things, I'm afraid I won't be able to learn."

After thinking about it, he raised his head and said, "The queen mother has taken a fancy to Nongqian Medicine, and she has already told the royal brother that when I leave the palace and go to the palace, he will let him come to me as a decree." ”

Zhong Huan was leaned on her shoulder, and she reached out to pick up the vegetables twice, so she simply put down the chopsticks and listened to her attentively.

"Now Youxin and Zhao are really trustworthy to me. Nong Qianyao has your newly acquired apprentice to lead me, and I am quite relieved. Senior brother, can you help me a few more people! If the house is full of cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods, I can't sleep well......"

Shen Shen puffed out his mouth and coquettishly with Zhong Huan.

Zhong Huan frowned and said, "Transfer a few of your people from Yongtai Fang." You don't have Tang Muyi, so you can't use so many people. When the time comes, just refuse a few more.

"—But, why is the Queen Mother and the Emperor so good to you? Even if you really have the blood of the Nan family, and the Queen Mother is merciful, then the emperor should be wary of you, not trust! ”

Thinking of the life experience that Empress Dowager Shen arranged for herself, Shen Shen grinned: "Yu Zhen and I are not surnamed Nan, and if we really talk about it, we are just a county lord." What does he watch out for us? ”
