Seeing this, Song You had already guessed seven or eight points in his heart.

The sword qin took out a note from his arms, and the note was stained with his sweat, half of which was wet.

Song You lowered his eyes and reached out to take the note in Jianqin's hand.

Jianqin choked up and said: "Master, I and the guard you arranged escorted the Xinyi girl out of the city to Zhuangzi, who knew that as soon as he got out of the city gate, Li Zongyan rushed out and nailed the Xinyi girl to the tree with a sword, Li Zongyan said Master...... is not a man, when I ran back to deliver a letter to my master, the guard was also pierced through the heart by Li Zongyan with a sword. ”

When Xinyu heard this, he stepped back, his eyes straightened, his legs weakened, and he fell to the ground.

Although Jianqin has been following Song You outside, in the end, he also grew up with Xinyi, thinking of the tragic situation of Xinyi being nailed to death by the sword, he was sad in his heart for a while, and cried bitterly.

He cried and said, "There are also those minions who were offered by Wenmo, and when a few of them were taken out for sale, they should have been killed. ”

Song You slowly opened the note, and there were only two words written on it:

Coward.

Holding the note in his hand and throwing it on the ground, Song You locked his brows, and there was a bit of coldness in his voice: "This pair of master and servant is really a headache." ”

The screams of the intellectuals lying on the trees, and the panting cries of the sword and qin joined one after another, making this hot summer day even more irritating.

And such cicadas are being listened to everywhere.

In the inner room of the Yichun Palace, An Cong stood behind the screen, looking at Mu Jinzhou who was playing with the palace people outside the window, the boy's laughter and the sound of cicadas entered his ears together, but his heart was like water, and there was no love on his face, let alone impatience due to waiting for a long time.

His back was already covered in sweat.

The crimson official uniform is heavy, and it is not very light and cool in summer, and the screen in the inner room, although the window is open to let the wind, but in the end it is not as pleasant as the ice cubes in the screen.

An Cong's official hat was not taken off, sweat slowly flowed down his forehead, and by the time he reached the end of his eyebrows, An Cong had slowly closed his eyes and let the sweat slide down his face.

He folded his hands in front of his stomach and took a deep breath.

Finally, inside the screen, Youxi Promise walked out.

Xi Nuo looked at An Cong and bowed slowly: "Second brother, please go inside." ”

An Cong opened his eyes and bowed his head.

Xi Nuo looked at the sweat on this person's face and neck from the side, sighed in his heart, took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and handed it to An Cong: "Wipe the sweat before going in, so as not to lose your dignity in front of Niangniang." ”

An Cong glanced at Xinuo, did not reach out to take the handkerchief, but smiled slightly: "Thank you Sister Xinuo." ”

After that, the man had already been spared in from behind the screen.

Seeing that An Cong didn't pay attention to his kindness, Xi Nuo only pursed his lips, turned around and closed all the open windows, and sent out all the maids standing in the hall one by one.

It is a good intention, I am afraid that he will appear in front of Concubine Zhen like this, which is not appropriate.

But since he has waited for so long and suffered for so long, how can he not take advantage of such a bitter ploy,

Therefore, the moment An Cong bypassed the screen, he stepped on the empty step, staggered, and knelt in front of Concubine Zhen.

Concubine Zhen was taken aback, stood up from the round stool, looked at her younger brother who fell to the ground, and sighed: "Get up quickly, this palace knows that you have been waiting for a long time." ”

After listening to the words in the house, he hurriedly set up a round stool for An Cong and put it in front of him.

An Cong hurriedly stood up, bent down slightly, and bowed: "Thank you Niangniang, it's just that this is not appropriate, and my younger brother is worried and doesn't dare to sit down." ”

After listening to An Cong's confession, Concubine Zhen looked at the list on the table and sighed lightly: "Since you are worried, it is better to treat these as if these do not exist, now you are on the rise in your career, and there is the emperor's love, but in the end, there must be people who can support each other, otherwise what will happen in the future?" ”

An Cong lowered his hand and hung his head: "What Niangniang said is, therefore, my younger brother is very worried in his heart, after all, Song You, who was married to the third sister, has now lost the emperor's appreciation, and the general trend has gone, and the Lin family, which the fourth sister married to, has nothing to rely on because of Prince Luo's affairs. ”

After hearing this, Concubine Zhen gently pushed the list to the side with her hand and sat down: "Since you know the powerful relationship in this, why bother doing this?" This thing can directly destroy Prince Luo. ”

An Cong frowned: "Yes, my brother knows." ”

Concubine Zhen glanced at An Cong, frowned, and said bluntly: "The palace will not help you give this thing to the emperor, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, you don't know, if you let the emperor know that the harem concubines and the brothers of the previous dynasty teamed up to deal with the son he relied on, let's not talk about the only title now, even our lives may be guaranteed." ”

He slowly straightened his waist and sighed sadly: "What Niangniang said, my brother doesn't know, it's just that this thing was given to my younger brother by Song You." ”

Concubine Zhen turned around and looked at An Cong with wide eyes: "What? Aren't the two of them friends who grew up together, aren't they in the same party? ”

Seeing that Concubine Zhen was so intense, An Cong lowered his head and smiled lightly, and when he looked up again, his expression was very heavy: "It is precisely because of this that my younger brother feels that the situation is very complicated, although Song You has lost the appreciation of the saint, but after all, General Song is still an important minister of the court that the saint relies on, this time the northwest side has not yet sent the main general to defend it, I heard that the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions have gradually joined forces, in this case, General Song is likely to be sent over." “

Concubine Zhen picked up the fan and put it on the table, the fan was bright yellow satin, embroidered with red peonies, very luxurious.

The fan in the beauty's hand shook gently, and her tone was calm: "What you said, I don't know how to do it, the eldest brother of the Song family was still the top three in the palace examination back then, this family, if you really want to embarrass Prince Luo, it's not impossible to fight." ”

An Cong bowed: "Yes, our An family is caught between these two forces, and it is very difficult. ”

Concubine Zhen slowly closed her eyes, the fan in her hand seemed to weigh a thousand catties, she shook her head lightly: "Then let's not care about anyone now, this palace just looked at the list you gave, and I also calculated in my heart, but after thinking about it, I still feel that it is better not to move anything, not to do anything, this day is unpredictable, so many princes, the saint has not yet canonized the East Palace, if the wrong treasure is pressed, it will be doomed." ”

Listening to what Concubine Zhen said, An Cong's expression changed and changed, and at the end there seemed to be a sneer on his face, and after Concubine Zhen finished speaking, he raised his head: "Niangniang, haven't you forgotten the lesson of rebelling against the king before?" ”

Concubine Zhen panicked in her heart: "What? ”

An Cong looked at Concubine Zhen steadily: "My father didn't think the same way before, neither the saint nor the rebel king could be offended, they both wanted to cling to it, and in the end, the An family ended up with two sides." ”

Concubine Zhen put the fan on the table, and slapped her hand heavily: "Presumptuous!" ”

An Cong bowed down again, but there was no fear in his voice: "Please also ask Niangniang to think carefully about the pros and cons, after all, the husband of the second sister and the third sister is now hostile, and our An family has an inescapable relationship to participate in it, among these two parties, as long as one of them holds a grudge and we stand by and watch, the An family will not have good fruits to eat." ”

He raised his head and stared into Concubine Zhen's eyes: "And as Niangniang said, now the Holy Lord has not yet established the East Palace, the overall situation is undecided, and this Prince Luo may not be the final winner, not to mention that there is a Song family against it, and the situation is even more difficult to see, isn't it?" ”

Concubine Zhen's hand curled up, and her eyes blinked a few times: "Yes, but if Prince Luo wins the overall situation, his biological mother has gone, and this concubine in this palace will also have a place in the future." ”

A smile flashed in An Cong's eyes, and he knew very clearly: "Niangniang, the prince who has no concubine is not the only Prince Luo. ”

Concubine Zhen looked up: "You mean...... Your Highness the Seven? ”

An Cong bowed, put her hands down, walked slowly to the table, picked up the list, carefully folded it, and slowly sent it to her sleeve.

He didn't say anything more, but he was silent and gave Concubine Zhen an affirmative answer.

Concubine Zhen watched him put the paper into the cuff, and said slowly: "His Royal Highness the Seventh is indeed a good choice, although he is not as good as Prince Luo, but in the end he is a safe child, but in your list, there is one that is the most difficult to do - Shoufu Chang Wuyong, his second brother is married to his mother's niece Xu Shuyue, and his mother has always remembered her mother's family, if you want to work against Prince Luo, our family will be divided into two." ”

An Cong stepped back, took two steps, and said in a deep voice: "Niangniang has been in this palace for many years, so she must have made her own decision in her heart, and she doesn't need her brother to say much." ”

Concubine Zhen looked at him sideways, her expression moving slightly.

An Cong raised his head with a gentle smile on his face: "Fuguo Mansion, in the father, in the mother, not in the mother." ”

With that, the man turned and walked out of the house.

The moment Concubine Zhen saw the person walk out, she stood up, her expression was in a trance, and she looked at it with regret and didn't dare to say more.

When An Cong went out, some clouds drifted in the sky, blocking the sun, and the wind gradually became faster.

It's the storm coming.

When Song You in Xiyuan looked up at the sky, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

He stood next to the window, turned his head to look at An Yu who was sleeping on the couch, and reached out to close the window.

Bishuang was ironing her clothes in the house, and when she saw Song You closing the window, she said suspiciously: "Uncle, on this hot day, let's open it some." ”

Song You turned around and sat down at the table: "It's about to rain, wait for the wind to blow later, and I'm not afraid that your girl will be blown away." ”

After hearing this, Bishuang bowed her head and was busy with the work in her hands.

Song You asked again: "I cooked the medicine for your girl in the afternoon, how can I see that you took a few gold bracelets and went out?" ”

Bishuang was stunned: "That was ordered by the girl, beaten into gold dust, to be used on the emperor's birthday." “

Song You's eyebrows moved, he turned his head to look at An Yu, and quickly stood up and walked outside the house.
