Coming out of Sima Daozi's study, Wang Guobao was not in a hurry to go back. Back then, he was high-spirited and had a good relationship with Xie Yan, and the two were like brothers.

The Taiyuan Wang family has always corresponded with the Chen County Xie family, and his father and Xie An also often exchanged letters. His wife was personally asked by his father to marry Xie An on his behalf. Xie An also agreed to marry his youngest daughter to him, which should have been a good story.

But it didn't take long for him to find that Xie An didn't like him. Every time he came to visit, he could feel Xie An's contempt for him.

Over time, he and the Xie family became estranged. When he switched to Sima Daozi's command, he gradually became a bad friend with the Xie family. He didn't think there was anything wrong, the Xie family looked down on him in the past, so why did he put a hot face on the cold bench.

Wang Guobao laughed at himself, people are always responsible for their own choices. He never regretted serving Sima Daozi, let alone being the enemy of the entire Xie clan.

……

The sun was shining just right outside, and the golden beams of light formed mottled halos through the gaps between the leaves, falling to the ground.

The fragrance of golden cinnamon wafted over for a while, and Wang Guobao walked towards Jinxuan Courtyard from the bluestone path with a calm face. It didn't take long to see a group of people jostling through a kumquat forest.

The princess, dressed in a dark red cotton dress, was standing under the porch, watching a group of servants below busy. The floor-length skirt was embroidered vividly, and the skirt swayed in the wind into the flower bed in front of him, looking at it from afar...... The magpie bird with its wings spread seemed to be able to fly out of her skirt at any moment.

Wang Guobao couldn't help but stand still.

The personal maid standing behind Wang reminded her in a whisper, and she raised her eyes to look over.

"Cousin."

Wang Guobao nodded and walked over, "It's orange picking season again." ”

A smile appeared in Wang's dark peach blossom eyes, "Cousin has finished talking to His Highness?" ”

"Hmm." Wang Guobao replied lightly, looking absent-minded.

Seeing this, Wang retreated left and right, and said with concern: "Cousin has something on his mind? ”

"My cousin has been married into the Lang Evil King's Mansion for many years, although she has been favored by His Royal Highness, but the years are urging people to grow old, and one day the existing grace will gradually disappear...... It's time for my cousin to think about the heirs. ”

Wang was stunned, "What does my cousin mean by this?" ”

"Can't my cousin see it? His Royal Highness began to pay attention to Sima Yuanxian......"

Wang's hand in front of him clenched suddenly. When she married into the Langxie Palace, Sima Daozi's backyard was quite clean, except for the eldest son, there were no other women. There is no connecting room, and there are no concubines.

The existence of the eldest son of the concubine did not like the Wang family. But he didn't like Sima Daozi, and he was raised to be lawless, and he was very capable of causing trouble. Sima Daozi didn't care about him, her mother-in-law and concubine were not ruthless, so she naturally went with him.

She also thought about giving birth to her sister-in-law, but Sima Daozi always let her avoid getting pregnant, saying that it was not yet time. Drinking too much soup is harmful to the body...... She knows very well, but Sima Daozi has always been fond of her because of his guilt for her.

She never imagined that she would fall out of favor one day......

"Does my cousin know something?" Wang was slightly nervous.

Wang Guobao smiled and didn't say anything.

"I'm leaving, cousin take care of herself."

"Cousin......" Wang's heart was raised because of his words, where was he willing to let him go, "Cousin might as well say it directly." ”

"The huge palace, does my cousin really plan to let it fall into the hands of Sima Yuanxian? Don't forget, how did the Liu family die, when it really came to that day, would my cousin still have a foothold in this palace? ”

Wang gasped.

Liu's ...... That dying is also disgusting and slut!

She will not forget that on the night of her wedding, Liu killed herself with a glass of wine and poison in the side courtyard.

Sima Yuanxian witnessed Liu's death, and he has not forgotten it for so many years, and always thinks that she and Sima Daozi killed Liu.

If he gains power...... Wang couldn't help but shudder. also wanted Wang Guobao to make a substitute idea, but found that he had left without knowing when.

At night, Sima Daozi found Wang with unprecedented enthusiasm. He is a lot older than her, and he is the best at manipulating people's hearts, although Wang's sudden change made him realize that something was wrong, but he was also a man in the end, and soon fell into Wang's gentle fragrance.

After some clouds and rain, Wang fell asleep with his arm crooked.

Sima Daozi opened his eyes suddenly, and there was no drowsiness in his dark eyes. He got up, put on his robe, opened the tent, and walked out.

The maid who was keeping vigil outside was startled and hurriedly knelt down.

"What did the princess do today?"

"Back to His Royal Highness, the oranges in Jinxuan Courtyard are ripe, and the princess took people to pick them for a long time, and then the princess came and talked to the princess...... The princess has been in the house ever since. ”

Sima Daozi frowned slightly, but he couldn't find anything wrong with his words.

Because Wang Guobao and Wang are cousins, although they don't see each other much on weekdays, they don't have any contacts. And today he has given his permission. Sima Daozi didn't expect his unintentional words to cause Wang Guobao to be uneasy, and he ran to the Wang family to talk more.

Thinking of that kumquat forest, it was because the Wang family liked to eat oranges, and he doted on her, so he asked people to plant one. Maybe...... It's because he's thinking too much.

Sima Daozi waved his hand and motioned for the maid to retreat.

He walked slowly out of the bedroom into the night......

There is no moon tonight, and the west wind in late autumn is as cold as usual. Unconsciously, he went further and further away...... For no reason, I remembered the day before my only son left, and I said harsh words.

- Father Mo didn't go to the wrong yard, this is the Cunju Courtyard, and it is separated by a wall......

On that day, he stood in the Cunju Hall, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a bare branch extending from the courtyard next door. Across a wall, there is the Harushi Temple, and he knows it.

That was the courtyard where Liu lived before his death.

The yard is small and remote, and the place is so narrow that even the subordinates don't want to live. But the Liu family lived for several years.

In the dark night, Sima Daozi walked to this courtyard that had been closed for many years for the first time. He hesitantly stretched out his hand, which had just touched the cold door panel and retracted.

That past that he didn't want to remember was the deepest taboo in his heart, and even the Wang family didn't dare to touch it easily. Can you ...... tonight He couldn't help but walk all the way this way.

Up and down the government and the opposition, before and after people, he is the powerful and infinite Lang evil king. But only he knows how dangerous this superficial scenery is.

He is the brother of Emperor Jin, but he is also a cold sword in his hand. The sword is a dead thing, and it is categorically not merciful, nor is it more likely that the heirs will be prosperous.

The royal brother is suspicious, he has long known that there are secret people buried in the mansions of every king and magnate of Fan. He is no exception...... Liu is a dark chess piece buried by his imperial brother in his mansion.

The funny thing is that he knew her identity, but he was still attracted to her and quietly moved his true feelings...... He married the daughter of the Taiyuan Wang family, and it is impossible to have a son-in-law in this life, but he can't let the Taiyuan Wang family lose his face and go to his mother and keep a son...... She took the initiative to bring it up, so she really can't blame him for her death.
