"I can tell you the consequences if I agree with you doing so."

"First of all, when I am alive, my political enemies will go out of their way to attack you, and even you will become my weakness. Family marriages have been a practice for a hundred years. After repelling Fu Jian, you have stood in such a high position that everyone can see you, but you want to do such a thing that violates the worldly etiquette, no matter how others treat you, it is normal, and I can't rely on my power to help you. ”

"Secondly, after I die, your brother Xie Xuan has a heavy army, but the court is lonely and has no support, and he will soon be excluded, if he rebels, it will be a rebellion, and other families will be happy to suppress him, and by the way, he will get a piece of the pie; If he does not resist, his military power will soon be divided. ”

"Once the Xie family loses power to that extent, all the people who held us and relied on us before will rush to trample on us, crush us into dust, and crush our bones and ashes. At that time, you still wanted to be your rich man, it was a fool's dream. ”

Xie Yan didn't think of these things, but he was treated like this by his father, and he analyzed it so clearly, he had to face the reality that he tried to avoid not thinking, what his father said was true, and it was a fact that could happen in the future.

"I can tell you plainly, don't say that you are just my son, even if you are the son of the emperor, even if you are the emperor, you are not likely to act recklessly. Do you think that Wang Fahui of the Taiyuan royal family became the queen because she was liked by the emperor? Zhang Guiren, the most favored person in the palace, has a special room every night, but he is always a concubine, this is the name, the etiquette, and the rules passed down from generation to generation......"

"Now in this chaotic situation where there will be war at any time, only to gain absolute power, let the heads of all the families bow to you, let every pair of hands holding weapons be loyal to you, no one dares to challenge your authority, no one can contain any of your decisions, you smile, flowers must bloom, you have a look, all people can only obey your heart......"

"Only then will you be able to do whatever you want, recklessly, and you will bear whatever consequences you do......"

The more Xie An spoke, the more excited he became, he was actually talking about his own heart, even Xie An, who was known as a pure minister, didn't he have his own selfishness?

In this world, who doesn't want to be prostrate under their feet all day, who can refuse the temptation to be free and reckless?

Xie Yan's eyes were getting brighter and brighter, he clearly saw a feasible path, and he also felt that he had the ability to go to that path.

The Xie family has prestige and military power, and now, it's not too late, isn't it?

Xie An was taken aback when he saw the change in his eyes, and suddenly realized what he was talking about.

He quickly remedied: "These are all impossible, so you don't expect those unrealistic things, understand?" ”

Xie Yan lowered his head and said leisurely: "Understood." ”

In this world, some people will rely on their own power, disregard the wishes of others and willfully do what they want; Some people are good at tricks and can find loopholes in various rituals to achieve their own unsightly goals; Some people are good at self-comfort, and will put on a high-sounding coat for the unreasonable things they do; Some people will use the appearance of cowardice to deceive and obtain things that cannot be theirs.

It's just that Xie Yan is not any kind of person, his heart is like a light and a moon, and he is as open as a mirror.

Whatever he wants to do, he will do his best, no matter how difficult the process is, no matter whether the ending is happy or not.

Life is short, some people don't know where they come from in life, where they die, they dress and eat all their lives, such a life, like dreams coming and going, confused for decades or even a hundred years, just a blink of an eye.

And a firm heart is a thought of eternity.

The two were silent for a while.

At this time, a curious voice suddenly came from outside the study door.

"Which sister-in-law does my brother like, I, who is a younger sister, are still kept in the dark!"

It turned out that Xie Ying had been listening to the wall for a while, and no one in the Xie family dared to stop her, and she was bold and naughty.

Xie An and Xie Yan were both shocked, and they didn't know how much she had eavesdropped on what she had just said.

I saw that she rushed over and hugged Xie Yan's arm without any guilt, and said coquettishly: "Brother, just tell me, I'm curious, which girl can easily win the heart of my ice beauty brother?" Although she is married, her behavior is still the same as when she was a girl, and she has not changed at all.

Xie An smiled and frowned: "It's all other people's daughters-in-law, and they still run home so casually, fortunately, they didn't marry you to the royal family, and it is a question whether you can live well in the palace for three days with your temperament." ”

Xie Ying said helplessly: "Father, our family and the Wang family are on the same street and in the same alley, and we will go to our own house by climbing over the wall." ”

Xie Yan laughed at her and said: "Why are you still 'our family', 'Wang family', now you are a serious 'Wang family'." Besides, will you climb over the wall, and whether you can climb up is still a question! ”

Xie Ying was unconvinced and wanted to pull him to prove that he could "climb" the wall, but for a while, Xie An's serious study was in chaos.

Xie An was overwhelmed, and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter with you coming back?" ”

Xie Ying then remembered the reason why she went home to find her father, and she said: "Father, do you know that the hoopoe bird title flower branch is the family emblem of which family in Ludi?" ”

Although Xie An is well-read, after all, he is old, and he is not very clear about the inconspicuous family in the court, he looked at his son with questioning eyes, but saw Xie Yan looking at Xie Ying with a surprised look, he couldn't guess the dumb riddle played by these two children, so he drove the two out and said, "Such a trivial matter, you ask your brother to go." You brothers and sisters haven't seen each other for a long time, so let's go and say hello to your mother. ”

The two went out together, and at the same time, they heard Xie Ying chattering endlessly: "Brother, don't you know, in fact, my brother is not as smart as I imagined......

Xie An was stabbed by the word "also", he angrily found the thick yellow book on the shelf, flipped through and flipped through it, and finally stopped at the word "Zang".

That night, Xie An whispered to his wife Liu: "I don't think the situation in this court is very good, you have to be prepared for my retirement, don't be caught off guard at that time." ”

Liu was startled, and was just about to ask, but was gently pressed by his husband, Xie An said quite gently: "The Sima family is powerful, and the emperor is quite successful, I am just taking precautions, and it has not yet reached this point." It's just that you have always had a bit of a temperament, and I never wanted to restrain you, you must know that everything is too much, and there must be room for all kinds of interactions with people, so don't think that my status is still the same as before. ”

Liu said softly: "Husband doesn't have to worry about me, although I have a bad temperament, I also know the truth that a husband and a wife are expensive, and one loses both." If there is a day, even if it is to eat chaff vegetables, I will put my husband and son first, and I will never frown. ”

She married Xie An as a young man, and now she is in her forties, but she still has a bit of true temperament, and her serious appearance is very cute, Xie An couldn't help laughing, he thought of one more thing, and said: "Yan'er's marriage, don't worry about it first, wait for a period of time if the situation improves." ”
