+++++++++++++++++++ You Are Willing (VIII) (Below) The Dividing Line

Chen Zhichong felt a faint pain in his heart at this moment. The throbbing in his heart many years ago was the first and only time in his life. And over the years, he has never forgotten the once breezy figure in the palace, as if it would melt the quiet and warm smile of the whole world. It seems to give him a quiet and peaceful harbor for the children of a family who are in a hurry and busy all day long for family affairs.

After knowing that she had an accident, his whole body seemed to be drained, and it took a few years for the pain to slowly calm down. Now that he saw that seductive figure again, how could he not yearn for it. However, she was already a brother's woman. He couldn't touch it. He and Xinjie have had a good relationship since childhood, whether he is Young Master Sun who did not recognize his ancestors in Yumen, or the concubine who is not treated by Mrs. Tang in the Tang Gate, he is a righteous enough, talented and amiable brother in Chen Zhichong's eyes. He woman, he can't touch. But he was worried about her. After all, Xinjie is famous, and she is a weak woman, so she is unknown and follows him without a name, in case Xinjie meets someone else in the future, what should she do? Not to mention, it's her sister, she also knows a little about Xinjie's mind and he, who is an elder brother. If my sister insists on going her own way, if she returns to Beijing and asks her family to propose marriage, according to the intimacy between my aunt and my mother's family, it is very likely that she will agree. Although it looks like my aunt and grandmother are good to Zhou, after all, Zhou is Zhou, not his own nephew.

If that's the case, no matter what, with her sister's personality, she won't have a good life. But it seems that from his point of view, his aunt and grandmother are just a kind elder to his sister. If the two parties are compared, it is difficult to say whether she really helps her sister. After all, the Zhou family is the one who disappeared from the palace, If there is no special reason, how could the second aunt and grandmother, who have always been cautious, take her in and let her be with Xinjie. The helmsmen of the family are all in the priority of the family's interests, the second aunt and grandmother are not only the Chen family, but also the pillar of the Tang Sect, and there will be no meaningless waste chess in her position, so what kind of chess piece is Miss Zhou for her? If she is a chess piece, then what is her status in Xinjie's mind?

Xinjie has worked for the crown prince all these years, although everyone is cousins, Chen Zhichong naturally understands the various trade-offs and considerations of the superior in the bureau, and it is very likely that his marriage will be included in the overall arrangement. Although the second aunt and grandmother and the queen mother's aunt are sisters, they have helped each other for decades, but after all, their respective positions are different, and even when the Chen family decided to serve the queen mother's aunt and grandmother, his father and grandfather hinted to him that if he wants to choose when the interests of the queen mother, the Tang family and all parties conflict, he must choose the one that is most beneficial to the Chen family. Miss Zhou is a helpless orphan girl, can she really carry Prime Minister Xinjiebai in this complicated situation? If there is an accident, can I intervene to protect her? Ask yourself if he has the strength at the moment.

Not to mention anything else, if she gave up her marriage contract with Ruiyu, she would offend her aunt and her aunt's maiden family, but Ruiyu was her own niece and nephew, thus offending her uncle. In the choice of the next head of the Chen family, he must not get the support of his uncle, although his uncle currently values him the most. In recent years, he has invested most of the rewards he received for the Queen Mother in the jade and tea business, and that business is also thanks to the care and help of his uncle and Ruiyu's family. In the past two years, because the business has gradually grown, the complacency has burst like a bubble at this moment, If it weren't for today's thinking about this time, he wouldn't have realized this problem. It doesn't seem to be as good as Xinjie. His Aoki Hall and Yuehuaxuan are not relied on by anyone, and they are in control of the overall situation. Thinking of this, he felt an indescribable frustration in his heart, and it seemed that he needed to restructure and adjust his development.

After Chen Biyan received the letter from the Queen Mother's sister, she hesitated for a moment and asked people to invite Tang Lan, Xinjie and Lian'er. A prince born to an outer family, or the wife of a subordinate and the illegitimate son of the former emperor, was originally a person who could not be exposed in the imperial family, but the first emperor wanted him to inherit the throne. As the sister of the queen mother, she was naturally angry, but she was more helpless, as a royal woman, she had no feelings at all, and the complex so-called dignity only came from the so-called emperor's giving. And now, the first emperor left such a slap in the face for his sister, which no one can let go. The Queen Mother, this strong-minded woman, intends to make everything public, and the natural crime is borne by the Xiangyang Hou family, and the drug woman bewitches the emperor and uses the jade seal to forge the edict. The Liu family was originally a strange doctor in the south of the Yangtze River, and it was acceptable for everyone to control the king with drugs, and the absurd actions in the back could be explained, the crime was enough to exterminate the clan Ling Chi, and then the mercy of the queen mother was remarkable, and the blood of the emperor was read in the bloodline of the former emperor, and the original territory was confined. However, such a person will inevitably not accept the idea of captivity, and there are many things that need to be arranged in both the DPRK and China. At this time, the Tang Sect had to rush out to serve the Queen Mother. And such a person, a prince, but he never forgets his grandson, although the grandson does not accept his paranoia, but from the conversation he came back, Chen Biyan knows that in addition to this, Gao Shitao is very recognized by Xinjie in other aspects, otherwise he would not have been a gentleman in the rivers and lakes for so many years.

"Gao Shitao is not a bad person, he is also very helpless. With that kind of identity, he is destined to be unable to truly stabilize in this life. When I was a child, my aunt and I were passing through Luoyang and were sought revenge by the Dahe Gang, and the day before yesterday he could have besieged me in the villa, but he let me go. ”

"Are you sure he can trap you?" Tang Lan asked with some disdain, I originally thought that this excellent son was already very experienced in the rivers and lakes for many years, but I didn't expect him to have a little personal relationship in this kind of big thing, and he couldn't help but sigh a little in his heart, everyone will have defects, and Tang Sanshao, who is admired by the people of the rivers and lakes, is no exception, but it depends on whether you are the kind who can handle his life.

"Few people know that I can break the Qimen formation, if he really launches, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not be able to leave me." Xinjie wanted to say something for him, but suddenly realized that he couldn't let it go on like that, even though he admired the man. And this person has a different kind of mind for him, he has tried his best to pretend not to know, and at this time Lian'er is by his side, he feels more or less uncomfortable. He confirmed that he didn't think anything else about this person in his heart, and that he was a normal man. Perhaps his aunt knew him best, and rightly so, the awkwardness of his personality was the kindness of some women who would run out from time to time. Walking in the rivers and lakes, there are not many people he can see, whether it is friend or foe, Gao Shitao has something worthy of his attention, and for a person who has always treated him well, he wants to let himself take action, and he is ruthless to destroy him, not only his life, but also his reputation, he feels unbearable. This is also what Yiyi said to him, he can be his friend and his protector, but he can't be his knife, because he is not hateful enough: "I have already seen him the day before yesterday, and he has accepted it after saying that the two will not disturb each other." He knew my personality very well, and now that he was outstretched, I wouldn't allow him to come any closer to me, or get too close to him. The Queen Mother's letter is late, and if I can approach him again now, I will surely notice it with his intelligence. ”

Tang Lan glared at him fiercely, this child doesn't know the severity too much, the Queen Mother and the Tang family are bound together, the Queen Mother needs the Tang family's rivers and lakes, and the Tang family needs the Queen Mother of the imperial court. It's so big, it involves the unification, how can he escape?!

Chen Biyan looked at his son, looked at his grandson, and sighed slightly, both of them are not perfect, the son is too real, and most of the grandchildren are good, but they are still too soft-hearted. She doesn't know why a person who has suffered from the heat and coldness of the world since he was a child, wandered in the rivers and lakes, and is accustomed to seeing life and death, why still has a soft heart, can only say that the pure and good side of this child's nature is innate. It's just that this time his kindness is a good thing for her decision-making, the Tang family is the Tang family of the rivers and lakes, not the Chen family, the ancestors of the Tang family have a promise to Emperor Taizu, and the descendants of the Tang family will never have the blood of the royal family on their hands, even if she is the daughter of the Chen family, but she is also the daughter-in-law of the Tang family, how can she ignore the promise to the ancestors. Moreover, with the current state of the world, Gao Shitao cannot threaten Yiyi's position in the court. Xinjie's status in the Tang family is already delicate, why should she let her grandson get involved in this matter, so that he will have no shame to worship his ancestors in the future.

"In this case, Xinjie is indeed no longer suitable to approach him according to the Queen Mother's plan, although we can't do it directly to him, but we can do it if we don't let him survive in our sphere of influence. The Baicaotang and Ping'an Inn in Luoyang are not available. Xinjie, I remember that the prefect of Luoyang is your friend, and you can use the talisman in your hand to mobilize the elite soldiers in Luoyang City of Yulin Wei to assist the prefect in suppressing bandits. Xinjie, in this matter, you should personally go to Luoyang, inform the Baihuatang Luo* Fire Department and Qingsha Department over there, with Wu Sanniang as the leader, to obey your dispatch, and assist the government to take the Zhuangzi and weapon workshop on the side of Maipo, and check all the forces of the Marquis of Xiangyang in the city. Act quickly, you leave before sunset, and be sure to act before tomorrow night, this matter cannot be delayed. You just need to go and discuss the action with your friends, and come back after the Zhuangzi, and don't get yourself caught up in the follow-up chores and inventory over there. ”

Xinjie nodded, he understood that grandma was giving him a chance to avoid the opportunity to face Gao Shitao. He felt warm in his heart, and his grandmother wanted to take care of him at all times.

"Lan'er," Chen Biyan glanced at her son who was a little surprised, thinking that he still didn't understand why he didn't follow the Queen Mother's plan this time, she shook her head slightly: "It is estimated that you, the general of Shanglin, will not be able to disperse the rank anymore, use all the strength that the emperor has given you in Guanxi, mobilize troops, and force them into the Hetao area outside Tongyao Pass, and leave the rest to Liu Guobiao, who is eager for quick success, and the people of our Tang family do not have the blood of the royal family on their hands." No matter what he said, it was all the blood left by the emperor. ”

Tang Lan was slightly surprised, how could he forget this ancestor's promise.

"Lian'er, you should be very familiar with Baicaotang by now, Xianyang's Baicaotang Jingwei and Baihuatang Xianyang are at your disposal, be sure to check all the other party's hidden piles in Xianyang and Tangzhuang within three days."

When Lian'er heard this, she was immediately nervous, where had she supervised so many people. Seeing her somewhat surprised expression, Chen Biyan suddenly wanted to make a joke with her in her heart: "I also know that you just took over, I'm afraid that you won't be able to control them, it takes time for capable subordinates to surrender, but I believe that the more capable people are, the more they will have their own self-esteem, and they will be loyal to the things assigned by their masters, which is their principle of life." Miss Ning'er in the palace, I believe in your ability. ”
