Chapter Forty-Eight: Uncle

Left Prime Minister's House.

"Lord, the boy's identity has been ordered to be found out, but I didn't expect it to be really simple." Han Sheng exclaimed.

Ye Zichen's eyelids lifted slightly: "Say." ”

"Yes, that child is actually the son of the eldest prince, and he is also the only person in the eldest prince's family who survived."

Hearing this, Ye Zichen looked stunned, and was quite surprised in his heart, no wonder he was somewhat similar to himself.

"Lord, how shall we place him now?"

Ye Zichen lowered his eyes and thought, since he is the son of the eldest emperor's brother, and now that the eldest emperor's brother is dead, for the sake of the eldest emperor's good treatment when he was a child, he should also settle his son well.

And himself, should he tell him his identity?

After a while, Ye Zichen said, "Pass him over." ”

"Yes, Lord."

The boy was quickly brought over, and he looked up at the man in front of him with some doubts, without the slightest cowardice, although he had gone through vicissitudes, his eyes were still clear, but he was still stubborn.

Ye Zichen also looked at him for a while before asking, "What's your name?" ”

"Ling Xu."

A hint of appreciation flashed in Ye Zichen's eyes, it seems that this kid still knows how to guard against people at a young age, and he didn't say his surname.

But also, after the destruction of the family, anyone will become mature, even if he is just a child.

And this child looks very calm, it doesn't seem to have been beaten and lost his heart, if he is trained well, he will become a great weapon in the future.

The eldest brother is such a gentle person, how can his child be bad?

If you tell him who you are, it doesn't hurt to come.

Ye Zichen asked again: "What about the surname?" ”

"The surname is Ling." The boy's tone didn't look like a lie at all.

Ye Zichen smiled, and he didn't have the patience to give him a dumb look, and said bluntly: "Your surname is Nangong, and you are from the royal family of Yunguo. ”

When the boy heard this, he instantly became panicked, and retorted again and again: "No, I'm not!" ”

Ye Zichen said lightly: "You don't have to refute, and you don't have to be afraid of me, because I am your father's younger brother." ”

The boy fell silent, stunned for a moment, and said in disbelief: "What? So, you're your father's younger brother? But you're ......"

He is the prime minister of the Chu State, how can he be the prince of the Yun State?

"You just have to know that and you can't tell anyone." Ye Zichen didn't explain, just admonished.

Nangong Ling Xu's eyes were staring at Ye Zichen tightly, and he inexplicably felt a sense of intimacy, so he believed him for no reason.

"Okay." Nangong Ling Xu firmly assured. He is not stupid, the left minister of Chu State is the prince of Yun State, if such a thing spreads, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Ye Zichen's eyes flashed with satisfaction, he believed that this kid would not say it.

He asked, "How did your parents get killed?"

At the mention of this, the corners of Nangong Ling Xu's eyes were slightly red, that incident was a nightmare for his life.

He was stunned for a moment before he said, "I, I don't know." That day, a group of people suddenly broke into my house, robbed things when they saw them, and killed people when they saw them, and my father couldn't resist them alone, so they were killed. ”

It really looks like a rogue, Ye Zichen said in his heart.

Moreover, the eldest emperor brother is already a deposed prince, and there is no threat to the other princes at all, and they have no reason to send someone to assassinate him so far away.

Ye Zichen saw that he was sad and said, "Since the matter has passed, don't think about it." ”

Nangong Ling Xu nodded, he was also trying to let go, but how could this kind of thing be so easy to let go?

Ye Zichen asked again: "What have you learned over the years?" ”

Nangong Lingxu was a little embarrassed, and said: "The family doesn't have the money to hire a husband for me, and there are no books to read there, so although my parents occasionally teach some things, they haven't learned anything." ”

Ye Zichen was a little shocked, he didn't expect the eldest brother to have such a hard time, and he also felt a little pity for Nangong Ling Xu.

"In that case, I'll ask someone to teach you how to read." The son of the eldest brother can't be a waste material.

Nangong Ling Xu looked at Ye Zichen in surprise, and then immediately thanked him: "Thank you, uncle." ”

"Han Sheng, take him down."

Nangong Ling Xu didn't want to leave, but wanted to say something, and seemed to be a little embarrassed to speak.

Ye Zichen raised his eyes to see his crampedness, and frowned slightly, "Say whatever you want." "Didn't you look very bold just now, why is it now twisting and pinching?

Nangong Ling Xu was still hesitant, and only after a while did he boldly speak: "Uncle, can I practice martial arts?" ”

Ye Zichen raised his eyebrows and looked at him, and saw that his eyebrows were full of anticipation, so he motioned to Han Sheng to probe his muscles and bones.

Han Sheng understood, walked over and touched Nangong Ling Xu's body everywhere, pinched it, and then replied: "Lord, the little boy has a clear bone, and he is a good seedling for practicing martial arts. ”

Ye Zichen got up and took a booklet to him, "Follow the above practice." ”

He is already ten years old, and he has long passed the best age for practicing internal strength, but if he practices martial arts well, he can barely make up for the lack of internal strength.

And the moves in this booklet should be the best in the exercises, and they are also very suitable for people of his age to practice.

He also commanded: "Pick a personal guide." ”

"Yes."

Nangong Ling Xu was overjoyed, and immediately knelt down with a red face and said, "Uncle's kindness today, Ling Xu will repay it in the future." ”

"You and I are blood relatives, there is no need to do this." Ye Zichen said lightly, and at the same time asked Han Sheng to take him down.

Nangong Ling Xu kowtowed again with a thousand thanks, and went out with Han Sheng.

As soon as he walked out of the door, he saw Mu Ranyue coming towards him, and the two of them bowed: "Madam." ”

Nangong Ling Xu was originally called his sister according to Mu Ranyue's wishes, but now that he has learned about Ye Zichen's relationship with him, it is indeed inappropriate to call her sister, and if she is called aunt according to her seniority, it will inevitably make Mu Ranyue suspicious, so he has to call Mrs. vaguely.

And hearing Nangong Ling Xu call her like this, Mu Ranyue was also very surprised, and nodded his forehead unhappily: "You little ghost, didn't you ask you to call me sister?" How did you change the name? ”

Nangong Ling Xu replied solemnly: "Before, Ling Xu was not sensible, so he called his sister, since Xu Ling Xu is already a member of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he should also know how to distinguish between respect and inferiority." Please also ask Madame not to blame. ”

Mu Ranyue stared at him suspiciously, his reason seemed to be very legitimate. However, no one in this mansion will call himself Mrs. except Han Sheng, they are all called His Royal Highness, and if he wants to be honorific, he should also call himself His Royal Highness.

suddenly thought that he had just come out of Ye Zichen's study, and Ye Zichen didn't seem to like him very much, "Did Xiangye do something to you?" ”

Nangong Ling Xu hurriedly shook his head, "No, Xiangye is very good to Ling Xu." ”

"Good?" She didn't believe it.

"Hmm." Nangong Xuyao nodded.

Mu Ranyue wondered in her heart, but she still didn't believe it, how could Ye Zichen's cold-hearted person be good to an inconsequential person?

Han Sheng interjected at the right time: "Madam, Xiangye said that since Prince Ling Xu is the person brought back by Madame, he naturally has to serve him well." And now the subordinates are carrying out the order of the prime minister to settle the little boy well, so the subordinates retired first. ”

Han Sheng saluted Mu Ranyue, and then pulled Nangong Ling Xu away.

Mu Ranyue looked at their departing backs suspiciously, and actually saw God.

"Your Highness, Your Highness......"

Yunshang screamed several times before she reacted and went to the study.

"Brother Chen, why are you suddenly so kind to Ling Xu? That's not your character. Mu Ranyue was very puzzled.

Ye Zichen raised his eyebrows, "Oh, in the eyes of Dye, what kind of personality am I?" ”

"Hmm...... Cold and arrogant, arrogant, self-appreciative, cold as frost......"

Ye Zichen became more and more unable to listen to it, and said lightly: "It turns out that in the eyes of Dye, I am such a person?" ”

Mu Ranyue nodded seriously, isn't it? When I first got along with him, I dragged it like 285, and I looked like I was rejecting people thousands of miles away.

And Ye Zichen's increasingly cold look made her feel in danger, she hurriedly rescued it, and laughed dryly: "Hehe, I just made up all that, just kidding." In fact, in my heart, you are extraordinary, transcendent and immortal, and you can be described as a humble gentleman who is unparalleled in the world. ”

Ye Zichen listened to her flattering words, and his handsome face twitched a few times almost invisibly, he had never seen such a sycophant.

Seeing this, Mu Ranyue said softly: "What I said is true, otherwise how could this princess secretly promise you?" ”

After speaking, she shyly buried her head in Ye Zichen's arms.

Ye Zichen was in a good mood, "It turns out that Dye is so happy as a husband, and the husband must also serve the lady well and repay the lady's infatuation." ”

As he spoke, he leaned down and kissed her on the mouth, but at this moment a little servant came in out of place.

"Master Hou......" The little guy looked at the scene in front of him in surprise, as if he was frozen for a while.

Since Yezichen was made a marquis, the title of him in the house has been changed to Hou Ye.

When Mu Ranyue saw someone coming in, she was ashamed as if she was something, and she just wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into.

But she still held back the embarrassment, tidied up her appearance, and sat aside casually after getting off Ye Zichen's body.

The good thing was interrupted, Ye Zichen only felt that the anger in his heart was about to burn out, and his whole body rarely showed a tyrannical aura, and he condensed an internal force in his palm to fight this little guy.

Mu Ranyue hurriedly stopped his movements: "Don't, let's listen to him first." ”

Ye Zichen slowly put away his internal strength at this time, and spit out a word coldly: "Say." ”

The little guy was so frightened that he almost peed his pants, but now that he saw that Ye Zichen should have no intention of killing him, he wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and his voice trembled: "Back to the Hou Ye, yes, it is the second son of Murong Villa who is here, and he is now outside the door." ”

"What? Cousin Heng actually came. Mu Ranyue was so excited that she hurriedly ran out.

Ye Zichen came back to his senses, and Mu Ranyue was gone. He hurriedly went out to follow her, but he was very unhappy in his heart, but he was just a cousin, so it was worth her to be so excited? And this cousin is not a pro yet.
