"At that time, I was young and didn't understand the relationship between men and women, and my father was too busy, so I was very happy to see my third brother taking care of my sister......"

"Big brother, there is no need to mention this matter again, I understand."

Xuanyuan Yan saw Kang Yuanbang's calm and indifferent face, which was already distorted, full of pain and remorse.

He hurriedly interrupted Kang Yuanbang's words, he had already discovered Kang Yuanyuan's feelings for Ye Ruoxi that he shouldn't have, he just didn't want to break it. Because such an indecent relationship, if it is broken, it will embarrass and shame everyone.

"I don't want Ruoxi to know, I already know about it, but with her cleverness, she already understands the third brother's intentions, so she deliberately appeared in front of the third brother with me."

Kang Yuanbang saw that Xuanyuan Yan understood what he meant, and couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief, this kind of thing, like this, even if he is a genius, he doesn't know how to say it, and he is ashamed to say it.

"It's best for my brother-in-law to understand, and the foolish brother is ashamed, if only the foolish brother could have found out earlier......"

He sighed heavily, picked up his clothes and knelt down.

"Big brother, what do you mean, please get up quickly."

Xuanyuan Yan hurriedly reached out to support Kang Yuanbang, he appeared as a man in black at the moment, but it was inconvenient for Kang Yuanbang to bow down.

Kang Yuanbang had already bowed his head and bowed, refusing to get up and whispering: "In this matter, it is always my eldest brother who is at fault and apologizes to my brother-in-law." The third brother was unwilling to give up and wanted to come to his brother-in-law's trouble. As the eldest brother, I can't dissuade him, and my father is worried about this matter. ”

"Big brother, please get up first, if that's the case, I can only kneel down."

Xuanyuan Yan also knelt down when he picked up his clothes.

Where did Kang Yuanbang dare to let Xuanyuan Yan kneel, he and his father had already guessed Xuanyuan Yan's identity, so they hurriedly hugged Xuanyuan Yan's legs.

"Please listen to my brother-in-law first, I don't dare to bear such a big gift from my brother-in-law, and I am ashamed of my foolish brother. If this is the case, the foolish brother does not know how to ask his brother-in-law about this. ”

Xuanyuan Yan was helpless, so he could only bow his head and say: "If the eldest brother has something to say, how can I not agree, even if the third brother has a wrong step, I am older than the third brother, how can I not take care of it more." ”

The brother-in-law was willing to say this, and the foolish brother was even more ashamed and shameless to see his brother-in-law. In this matter, my father repeatedly asked the foolish brother to ask his sister-in-law to teach Ning Yuan a lesson, so that he could restrain his thoughts that he shouldn't have, and knew that he was far from his sister-in-law. Just ask my sister-in-law to show mercy and spare his life. ”

"Since it is my father-in-law's orders, how can I disobey my orders, not to mention that even if there is no order from my father-in-law, my eldest brother's begging, I will never hurt the third brother's life, eldest brother, please get up and speak."

Xuanyuan Yan pulled Kang Yuanbang hard, and Kang Yuanbang knelt firmly on the ground and did not move.

"In this matter, my father asked the foolish brother to take him to thank his sister-in-law for his generosity."

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, never

If my father-in-law says this, my eldest brother says so, I can only kneel. ”

Xuanyuan Yan smiled bitterly, his current identity is just a person in the rivers and lakes, and the owner of the door thief is majestic to say, but in the eyes of the official family, it is not worth mentioning.

Kang Yuanbang, as the deputy imperial history of the left capital of the Metropolitan Inspection Academy, Ye Ruoxi's eldest brother, it is too much to bow down to him, if he uses the name of Ye Tianqing, he should not and dare not bear such an identity.

It's just that Kang Yuanbang held his legs with both hands, but he refused to let him kneel down and return the salute.

"The eldest brother is like this, it really makes me feel uncomfortable, so I can only kowtow to my father-in-law in person to ask for guilt."

Kang Yuanbang heard Xuanyuan Yan say this, and smiled bitterly in his heart, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, including those concubines and princes, who dared to bear the prince's bowing ceremony.

He slowly got up and bowed again: "In this matter, please also ask my sister-in-law to bear with me, and the foolish brother will take my father, and I will thank my sister-in-law for his generosity and kindness here." Ruoxi entrusted it to her sister-in-law, hoping that her sister-in-law would treat her well. ”

Hearing Ye Ruoxi's name, Xuanyuan Yan's eyes softened and smiled: "Please rest assured, eldest brother, tell my father-in-law that I will treat Ruoxi better than myself." Ruoxi is my beloved, the love of my life, I would rather suffer some grievances myself than let her suffer the slightest grievance. ”

"When my brother-in-law said this, the foolish brother was relieved, and there was a brother-in-law in everything, and if the brother-in-law had anything in the future, the foolish brother would do his best."

Xuanyuan Yan smiled and said: "Big brother, now we are a family, don't talk about two families." The third brother is young and vigorous, I actually don't have the slightest sense of blame for the third brother, if it wasn't for the third brother who saved Ruoxi, how could I have a relationship with Ruoxi today. Ruoxi was ignorant before, but for more than ten years in the Prime Minister's Mansion, thanks to the careful care of the third brother. ”

If the brother-in-law can think like this, the foolish brother is even more relieved, and he just asks the brother-in-law to let the third brother understand this matter. Let him learn more lessons, the foolish brother is only worried that it will make his brother-in-law angry, if so, the foolish brother is here to thank him first. ”

Kang Yuanbang bowed down again and slammed it to the ground, and Xuanyuan Yan stretched out his hand to support.

After explaining this matter to Xuanyuan Yan clearly, Kang Yuanbang was a little relieved, what he was most worried about was that this noble sister-in-law would hold a grudge against Kang Yuanyuan and take Kang Yuanyuan's life. If that was the case, Kang Yuanyuan would be killed by Xuanyuan Yan, and they wouldn't dare to pursue anything.

After all, when they guessed the identity of the other party, how could they dare to disobey the prince, not to mention that Kang Yuanyuan was so bent on going his own way and was in an embarrassing situation for the Xi family. If it weren't for Ye Tianqing's unbearable situation, he wouldn't have been able to bear it, he would have solved this matter by himself, and he wouldn't have to bother Xuanyuan Yan.

"This matter is a matter for my Xi family, and my father and I should solve it ourselves. Just ......"

Kang Yuanbang bowed his head with a face full of shame, the Xi family can't dispose of Kang Yuanyuan for no reason, Kang Yuanyuan now has an official position, and he has just been rewarded by the emperor and promoted to an official position.

There is not enough reason, Ye Tianqing can at most teach and punish Kang Yuanyuan, not really

What. And Kang Yuanyuan's injury has not yet healed, and Ye Tianqing can't bear to do it.

If this matter spreads, Kang Yuanyuan can be punished heavily with family law, and even Kang Yuanyuan will be locked up and imprisoned for life.

But in that case, Kang Yuanyuan's life will always be gloomy, and the reputation of the Xi family must be greatly damaged, Ye Ruoxi's reputation will be wiped out, and it will be difficult for the Xi family to gain a foothold in Jian'an City and Tanglin Kingdom in the future.

"Big brother, why talk like this, leave the matter of the third brother to me. This matter will definitely be safe and sound, please believe me, big brother. I will never let this matter affect Ruoxi a little, and Ruoxi's reputation cannot be blasphemed in the slightest. ”

Kang Yuanbang heard Xuanyuan Yan say this, and his heart was clear.

Xuanyuan Yan may not care about the reputation of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but as long as he cares about Ye Ruoxi's reputation, it will be enough.

He landed on his knees again and kowtowed to Xuanyuan Yan: "Kang Yuanbang took his father, thanked his sister-in-law for his great kindness, and in the future, his sister-in-law will have an order, and his father and Ning Bang will all obey his fate and do his best." ”

Kang Yuanbang kowtowed heavily to Xuanyuan Yan.

Xuanyuan Yan bent down and stretched out his hand to help Kang Yuanbang up, just by virtue of this matter, no matter what his identity is, he can afford to accept Kang Yuanbang's heads. Because he has saved the face of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Kang Yuanyuan's future, and Ye Ruoxi's reputation.

"The eldest brother said this, I can't stand it, how dare I accept such a big gift from my father-in-law. When I come to the next day, I should come to the door in person and apologize to my father-in-law. ”

"My sister-in-law is naturally bearable, if it weren't for my sister-in-law's generosity, my Xi family's face would be just that. How can Ning Yuan be a human! How can Ruoxi be a human! ”

Xuanyuan Yan said with a smile: "I have always heard that the eldest brother and Ruoxi are cold, and I don't want the eldest brother to be such a hot-blooded person. Not only for Ruoxi, but also for the third brother, it is also very affectionate. ”

Kang Yuanbang smiled bitterly: "Don't hide it from my brother-in-law, I used to be estranged and indifferent to Ruoxi, and that's just because the third brother has always had the best relationship with Ruoxi, and if I have anything to say, I can only say it to Ruoxi, so I will pay attention to it silently." I don't want to, so it led to this, and it was also the fault of the foolish brother. ”

"So among the government and the opposition, it is rumored that the relationship between the eldest brother and the father-in-law is not good, and the eldest brother even has a private house outside, and rarely goes back to the prime minister's mansion, and this matter is also done for others to see?"

Xuanyuan Yan has always heard about this, but the last few times he has worked with the Xi family, he has seen that the Xi family's father and son are united, and there is no discord in the slightest. Even if it was rumored that the fight between Kang Yuanbang and Kang Yuanyuan was not harmonious, he didn't see it.

"This matter can be hidden from others, don't dare to hide it in front of your brother-in-law, the Xi family is harmonious, and the foolish brother is even more discordant to his father, how can there be disharmony. Everything is just for some people who have a heart to see, otherwise the foolish brother will not be able to get the queen's attention. ”

"The eldest brother did this in order to deceive the queen's audio-visual and reuse the eldest brother, so that he could arrange the final counterattack?"

"So to speak."

Xuanyuan Yan asked with some confusion: "What does the eldest brother mean by saying this?" Could it be, what else is hidden? Perhaps, I shouldn't have asked this, this is the secret of the Xi family. ”

"My sister-in-law is too worried, my sister-in-law is Ruoxi's husband, for my father, for me and my third brother, Ruoxi cannot afford to lose. Similarly, my sister-in-law is also the son-in-law of my Xi family, and I don't hide these things. It's just that my sister-in-law has just made a decision with Ruoxi about this, so I don't have the opportunity to explain this to my sister-in-law. ”

"I still like my eldest brother to call me brother-in-law, it's more intimate."

Kang Yuanbang smiled bitterly again, why is there a small difference in titles, my father found out, and even this one found out.

"Brother-in-law, let Brother Yu explain this matter."

After a heart-to-heart conversation, Xuanyuan Yan heard that Kang Yuanbang did not tell everything to him, and he did not ask questions. Because many things have been involved in the secrets of the Xi family and the imperial court, and those who can't be said may be that Kang Yuanbang is not very clear, or it is inconvenient to tell him.

Being able to know so much, Xuanyuan Yan was already very satisfied, and understood that the Xi family would not give him more information and trust at this time.

He believed that through Kang Yuanyuan's matter, he would gain Ye Tianqing's true trust and be willing to let him truly enter the Xi family's camp.

And if he can enter the camp of the Xi family and get the support of Ye Tianqing, Kang Yuanbang, Kang Yuanyuan and others, he will only be one step away from that position.

The two talked all night long, and it was not until dawn that Kang Yuanbang got up: "Brother-in-law, the foolish brother must resign and go to the court first, and talk to his brother-in-law in the coming day." ”

"So, I'll send my eldest brother out."

"Don't dare to work, my brother-in-law is a coquettish guest of my Xi family."

Hearing Kang Yuanbang say this, Xuanyuan Yan also laughed.

The son-in-law is called "Jiaoke", the rules of the Tanglin Kingdom, once a man becomes the son-in-law of other houses, he will receive the supreme courtesy of the family for the rest of his life, and he is the "Jiaoke" of this family.

All the delicious food at home must be reserved for the "coquettish guest", and the most respected upper seat can only be sat by the "coquettish guest", not only that, but also benefit the children, who are also courteous and favored. The son-in-law is the most honored guest in the family, so it is not only a etiquette rule, but also for the daughter who marries out, and the husband in the in-law treats her better.

Xuanyuan Yan thought about it, knowing that if he didn't go to see Ye Ruoxi, Ye Ruoxi would probably be waiting for him all the time, and he was always uneasy in his heart.

He walked slowly all the way to Ye Ruoxi's courtyard, but his heart was surging, Kang Yuanbang's attitude towards him today, he always felt that there was something hidden, but he couldn't see through it. The eldest brother who has a very high demon index in Ye Ruoxi's mouth, he can't see through it.

"Could it be that Ye Tianqing and Kang Yuanbang have already begun to doubt my identity? I always appear in the palace, come and go at will, or, what do they see from Ruoxi's attitude? ”

The footsteps stopped in front of Ye Ruoxi's door, Jinxiu was about to say something, he waved his hand, Jinxiu hurriedly closed her mouth and retreated, she couldn't afford to provoke this master, so she could only flash people.
