Scarlet Hua was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then said with a smile, "Yue'er has entered the deep palace now, and there will not be many opportunities for you two sisters to see each other in the future, so it's not bad to be able to narrate." ”

Slender eyebrows swept slightly, knowing that his father was an official for several generations, and he was the best at playing dumb fans, and Scarlet Smoke didn't want to go around in circles with him, so he said straightforwardly, "What does my father think, Prince Wei Xian?" ”

Scarlet Hua looked at her daughter with a calm face, and continued, "Since you are the prince selected by the emperor, you are naturally the best candidate for governing the country." ”

"Then Scarlet Yue must have persuaded her father many times, but why didn't her father accept the olive branch thrown by Wei Xian?" Scarlet Smoke didn't budge in the slightest.

stroked his beard, and said slowly, "The prince didn't throw any olive branches to his father. It's just that Scarlet Moon has begged a few times, and she wants to marry into the East Palace from the Prime Minister's Mansion. But for my father, I thought to myself, my Yan'er hasn't married yet, how can I give her a marriage first, so I refused. ”

Is there a difference between the two? Scarlet Smoke had a black line on his face, grabbed his father's sleeve and shook it, making a coquettish look, "Father!" Do you know that Yan'er is not talking about this, why does my father always go around in circles with Yan'er? ”

Hearing this, Scarlet Hua looked at the girl deeply a few times, and then sighed deeply, "Hey, my father doesn't want you to worry about this, why does Yan'er want to go against his father's wishes?" ”

Knowing his father's hard work, Scarlet Smoke bowed to him, "Yan'er knows that my father feels sorry for me, but under the current situation, no one can blindly escape." ”

"As a father, he just wants to protect his beloved, why do you run away?" The scarlet face frowned and said unhappily.

Scarlet Smoke looked at his father, "However, the prince is not a good king, and his father can protect Scarlet Smoke for a while, but he can't protect him for a lifetime." Wei Xian's thoughts, isn't his father still clear? ”

"Why don't you understand as a father?" Scarlet Hua shook his head helplessly, "The prince has indeed made some achievements in governing the country, but his brutal nature does make some founding fathers and fathers feel cold. ”

Scarlet was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "What did he do again?" ”

Pacing to the bookshelf, the scarlet voice was deep, "Today, the border came to report that the war was tight, and the prince sent General Chen, who was supposed to be enjoying his life, to the border of the frontier.

Li Guogong was originally friends with General Chen, and he was upset about it, but the prince found a few yellow-mouthed children to slander Guogong for embezzling military salaries, and insisted on taking away the city guard talisman in Guogong's hand.

"I think back then, Li Guogong was still dedicated to protecting the crown prince, but he didn't want to be treated like this now, how can people not be cold?"

That Li Guogong has seen a few times, he was born as a military general, he speaks straightforwardly, does not understand some twists and turns, and serves the country all his life, but now he only ends up with an empty name, which makes people sigh

"But the country can't be without a king for a day, now except for the prince, other princes are not in the climate, although the father is not inclined to the prince, but there is no other way." Scarlet sighed and turned to look at her daughter, a look of pity in her eyes.

"Although your father can't protect you for the rest of your life, you can personally entrust you to someone who treats you sincerely, and you will feel at ease as a father.

"Because someone can protect Xiaoyan'er for his father."

The love of her parents is so deep that she can't breathe, and Scarlet Smoke can't help but tremble when she hears her father babble like this.

It took a long time to clear his mind, "Father, not all princes are not successful. ”

Scarlet Xiang knew who Scarlet Smoke was referring to, but he shook his head and said, "I am in the Heavenly Family, but I don't have the slightest awareness of caring for the people of the world, even if I am talented, I am not a climate." ”

I didn't expect my father to comment on the fifth prince Wei Ting like this, and he groaned for a long time, and said softly, "People are selfish, why can't he live for himself, but care about the common people?" The world is so big, but is it not fair to be bound by a dragon chair and endless twists and turns? ”

"Fair?" The scarlet smile mockedly, "How can there be any absolute fairness in this world?" When he came into the world with a golden key in his mouth, and some children were born in a ravine or even a ditch, how could he not think about this fairness?

"When he wants what he wants, when he can be literate and martial at a young age, how can he not think about the fact that someone can't even eat, let alone go to the school to learn calligraphy, is this fair?

Saying that, a pair of discerning eyes looked into the bottom of Scarlet Smoke's eyes, "This world is unfair, everyone's fate and responsibility have been written the moment he was born." If he evades, he is a coward, and even those scholars who are poor but want to serve the country are not as good. ”

Scarlet Yan was speechless by her father's words, she didn't expect her father to have such an opinion about the common people in the world, so that she couldn't and couldn't refute it.

Seeing her daughter looking at herself in a daze, Scarlet knew that she had said too much, so she showed a kind smile, "Yan'er, I'm still busy for my father, I'll talk to you about this world another day." ”

The girl snorted lightly and stuck out her tongue at her father, "Yan'er can't say father, don't argue with you!" You're busy! ”

With that, she jumped out of the study lightly and skillfully, and closed the door with a "Peng".

Looking at her daughter's disappearing figure, she shook her head angrily and funny, picked up the folds on the table and looked at it again.

Back in his small courtyard, Scarlet Smoke was thinking about his father's words all the way. Are the five princes cowards or wise men? She couldn't decide, but the only thing she could confirm was that he had the ability to replace Wei Xian and become the one sitting on the dragon chair. The problem is that he doesn't want to.

Scarlet eyes were dark, Wei Xian's life belonged to her, and one day she would kill him with her own hands. But she also can't watch the southern kingdom fall apart because of the ownerlessness, leaving the people living in misery.

Now that she had made up her mind in her heart, Scarlet Smoke returned to the house, she quickly wrote a book as soon as possible, and asked the secret guard to hand a list to Yu Chimu, and then she called Bi'er, and after dressing up, she went out of the Prime Minister's Mansion through the back door and went straight to Shantang.

"Jiangnan Du family?" In the study of Nuoda, the man's cold voice made people shiver.

The secret guard who came to report was a newcomer, and he was curious about what kind of person the prince was, but now he felt deeply powerless when he was pushed by his colleagues to report the news.

The prince is so terrible, this group of guys who killed a thousand knives knew the truth and pushed him here, didn't they have the consciousness to take care of the newcomer at all?!

Lying on the ground, feeling the cold gaze above his head, although the dark guard was afraid, he still reported respectfully, "Go back to the prince...... Although the Du family in Jiangnan did not participate in this matter on the surface, judging from the quarterly reports and haulage records, a large number of medicinal materials transported from southern Xinjiang, of which three to forty percent entered the Du family's pharmacy. ”

The slender fingers tapped on the table one by one, and the crisp "dodging" sound seemed to hit the heart of the dark guard.

At this moment, Huo quickly walked to the front of the hall, glanced at the secret guard lying on the ground, and said softly, "Lord Wang, I just received a letter from the princess. ”

In just one sentence, the ice thawed, and the cold air around Yu Chimu gradually dissipated. The man's eyebrows were slightly raised, and he unfolded the letter that Huo Feng had brought to the stage, and only glanced at it, but the corners of his mouth were hung with a shallow smile.

This scene was no longer strange, but the new dark guard was so curious that he quietly raised his eyes.

"You're a newcomer, aren't you?" Yu Chimu suddenly said lightly.

The dark guard was stunned for a moment, and after looking around, he realized that the prince was talking to him, and then responded, "Yes, the prince!" The subordinate code name is Wuyi. ”

Yu Chimu's eyes flashed slightly, "Hmm...... The king's people don't need to kneel down to report the news, didn't they tell you? ”

Wuyi was stunned and then sweated coldly, it wasn't that he wanted to kneel, it was really the prince's aura that was too big, and when he reacted, he was already on the ground.

Secretly wiped his sweat, stood up from the ground, 51 cleared his throat and said, "Back to the prince, the subordinates know, but the body is not controlled, please forgive the prince." ”

Huo felt a little funny when he heard it on the side, and couldn't help but say out, "You newcomer is interesting, your body is not controlled by yourself, is it still under the control of the prince?" ”

Who knew that Wuyi actually thought about it seriously and nodded slowly, "My subordinates think that there is such a possibility." ”

Hearing this, both of them laughed, Wei Chimu's thin lips opened lightly, "Poor mouth, I will be called Shaoyan in the future." ”

Wuyi was stunned, and then a salute, "Shao Yan thanked the prince." But there is a little stagnation in my heart, the homonym of "Shaoyan" is a few words, does the prince think he is talking too much?

"Yes." Wei Chimu picked up the letter sent by Scarlet Cigarette, looked at it again, and then said, "You will go to the side of the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion in the future, her order is the order of this king, and if you understand, go down." ”

Unexpectedly, he finally completed the training and became a member of the secret guard, and after only one mission, he was sent to the side of the quasi-princess, and some doubts welled up in Shao Yan's heart.

But listening to the fire, he smiled on the side, "Our princess is not a weak woman, you will know when you go." ”

Shao Yan got the order and left the study.

After reading the letter in black and white several times, Wei Chimu carefully put it away, and wrote while writing ink, and instructed, "Check out every transaction of the Du family in the past few months, and take the king's waist card to find the head of the Cai family.

"Make a list of the Du family's suspicious transactions and hand it to him, he knows what to do."

"Find out who His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been in contact with a few days ago."

"Hand over a post to the Duke of Li's Mansion, and this king will visit him on a later date."

After explaining this, Wei Chimu finally put down his pen, folded the white rice paper full of three folds, pressed his fingers and gently pushed forward, "Give this letter to the princess." ”

Huo Gong agreed, took the letter, carefully put it in his arms, and then turned to leave.

On the other side, Scarlet Smoke has already come to the Good Hall, looking at the Good Hall where people come and go from a distance, the Scarlet Smoke has beautiful eyes and a long time to step forward.

At this time, the old doctor Yang Jiuwei was about to finish a needle in his hand, and called the doctor and apprentice on the side to tell him to take care of the patient, but when he got up, he saw the crimson smoke that was about to enter, so he greeted him.

"Yan Gongzi, you're here, let's take a step to talk."
