"Xianggong, I've wronged you!" Su Xiaojin pulled Tang Muchen's sleeve and said distressedly.

Tang Muchen shook his head, he only took one scoop to drink after drowning three thousand, no one was to blame for this.

The ancient ballad and the bamboo spirit are also a little faintly uneasy. Queen Wang's face was very scary when she left, and her kind of person who is sure to repay will definitely not stop there.

"What should the emperor do?" Su Xiaojin asked softly.

Tang Muchen hugged her shoulders and comforted her gently: "I have my own way to do this, Madam doesn't need to worry." ”

Su Xiaojin didn't ask any more, but he still felt unhappy.

Here, Meng Shi drank tea and listened to the report of Su Xiaojin and Wan Mei. Hearing that Wan Mei was probing Su Xiaojin, she was a little surprised.

"It's not a big deal. Maybe she's just a person who is too stuffy in the house, so she walks around the yard. The next person guessed, otherwise she wouldn't have thought of any connection between the two.

Meng Shi smiled, sure enough, the slut chatted with the slut, Su Xiaojin's humble background and the evening charm are a perfect match.

After the servant finished speaking, he looked at Meng Shi flatteringly. Meng Shi nodded at the maid beside him, and the maid immediately handed the next person a silver ingot,

"Thank you, ma'am. Don't worry, the minions will show you a good look. The servant thanked him for his kindness and took the money and left.

Meng Shi lazily rubbed his temples with his fingers, only to feel more proud. If those two women really colluded, she would be better off. Just do nothing and wipe them all out.

In the palace, the emperor stayed in the palace of the queen tonight. Concubine Xiang seemed to know about it early on, and sent someone to invite Xiao Wenxuan, saying that she was playing chess with her.

After a pillar of incense, Xiao Wenxuan came. Just as he was about to kneel down to say goodbye, he was stopped by Concubine Xiang.

"You kid, you're so reserved every time you come to me. There are no outsiders in this room, so you don't have to kneel and bow to them. E-Niang wants to know that you are a filial child. She looked pity.

Because of his humble position when he was pregnant with him, Xiao Wenxuan has been very sensitive since he was a child, and he is respectful in front of the emperor. Even in front of him, he was always upright, for fear of a trace of negligence.

With his mother's support, Xiao Wenxuan got up and walked to the bed and sat down.

The maidservant set up the chessboard, and one of them held the black and the other held the white child, and began to play.

"A few days ago, the princess feasted, who did you see when you went?" Concubine Xiang pretended to know nothing about her son's words.

Xiao Wenxuan smiled, but they were all children of princes and nobles, and there was nothing interesting.

When Concubine Xiang heard him say this, she raised her head and glanced at him, and then lowered her head and went to the chessboard to get the chess pieces.

"Mother, take it wrong, you're a sunspot." Xiao Wenxuan saw her holding her chess pieces in her hand and reminded her gently.

Concubine Xiang smiled, her face a little embarrassed.

"Can you see Su Xiaojin?" She continued to ask questions after changing the pieces.

Xiao Wenxuan was a little stunned when he heard this name. But he's no longer as impulsive and reckless as he used to be. Now he understands that loving someone should bless her with a better life.

"See, there is also General Qin's daughter, they are sitting together." He gathered his thoughts and said in a calm tone.

Concubine Xiang was a little surprised when she saw that everything was normal with him. This child likes Su Xiaojin, and when he heard her name in the past, his eyes lit up with excitement, why is he so calm today?

"Well, you're the same age, so you must have a lot to say." Concubine Xiang continued to say quietly.

Xiao Wenxuan didn't speak, lowered his head and frowned, thinking about what to do next.

After a while, he glanced up at his mother and asked her in a low voice if she had anything to say.

Concubine Xiang saw that she couldn't hide it, so she stopped playing chess. Anyway, if you are absent-minded today, you are destined not to wake up to this chess game.

"Xuan'er, you are E-Niang's only child. E-Niang tried her best, but she just wanted you to have a bright future. She pushed the game away and let the maid beside her withdraw.

After the maidservant finished cleaning up, she closed the door and went out.

Xiao Wenxuan knew that his mother's drunkard's intention was not to drink today, so he quickly packed up his mood and sat down to listen to his mother's teachings.

After Concubine Xiang was sure that there was no one around, she was relieved to communicate with her son boldly.

"You are the second prince, you are gifted and intelligent, riding horses and archery, and your reading and literacy are no worse than that of the prince. It is only because of his humble status that the prince will force his head. But my son, if you are willing, Mother is willing to plan for you. "She didn't have a loud voice, but she didn't speak well.

No matter how stupid Xiao Wenxuan was, he could hear his mother's words. It's just that she has never had the heart to win the heir, and she has repeatedly encouraged herself to do so.

"Under the whole world, it is not the king's land. Whether it's gold and silver treasures or land beauties, which one is not your father's? If you really like Su Xiaojin, how can you bear to give her to others! Concubine Xiang's persuasion made Xiao Wenxuan a little confused for a while.

He didn't speak, holding a black chess piece in a daze. Mother is right, the emperor is alone in the world, as long as he likes the woman, there is nothing he can't get.

It's just that he suddenly found that Su Xiaojin didn't seem to be so good, to be precise, he didn't love her so much. He now thinks Qin Wenya is also quite interesting. The woman who was occasionally mighty and occasionally shy also fascinated him.

"No, Queen Mother, don't say such things in the future, my father will be furious when he hears it."

Concubine Xiang looked at Xiao Wenxuan with a serious face, and stopped talking. She didn't understand, why didn't he have any ambition, was he willing to be a second prince who did nothing for the rest of his life?

"I don't like the throne. If I do anything to get a woman, I will hate myself, because it is not a gentleman's doing. Xiao Wenxuan said lightly.

If before, he did have this heart, including the last time the envoy from the Western Regions came to Beijing, he and his mother secretly visited, and at that time he also tried to snatch the throne, but now, he has figured it out, some people are destined to have no fate, and he no longer insists on it.

Concubine Xiang was furious when she heard him so pedantic. It seems that he has read too many sage books, so that he is old and old at a young age, without any youthful ambition and vitality.

"You, really don't look like my child, you let me down so much." Concubine Xiang shook her head, unable to hide her disappointment.

Xiao Wenxuan didn't argue, just sat there silently and didn't move.

"You go back to the palace to rest first, I want to be alone for a while." Concubine Xiang said coldly, her tone becoming very distant.

Xiao Wenxuan looked up at her, her face was cold and unfamiliar, as if she was treating a passerby. He tried to comfort her, but he didn't know how to talk about it.

"Mother, my son's resignation." After a moment of silence, he got up to say goodbye.
