"Waiting for me?" Xu Sheng stared at the scholar in front of him, when the two people in the center of power, the prince and the prince of Rui were all vying for it, but he didn't care about it, and now, he took the initiative to find his own dilapidated prince who had long been forgotten in the corner.

Qi Wenxiu naturally saw the doubts in his heart, and stretched out his hand to invite, "Lord Wang, let's talk while walking." ”

Xu Sheng led the horse, and the two walked on the road on the outskirts of Beijing.

"The prince must have wondered in his heart, why did I put it in King Rui, the prince didn't choose, but chose you?" Qi Wenxiu was not afraid that he would lose the face of the third prince, and continued, "You have no power in the palace, and you are not favored, and you have even been in the frontier for many years, and you are the youngest, and you have no foundation. "Compared with the prince and the prince Rui, the prince of Tai'an is less sophisticated and ruthless, and he is naturally better controlled.

Xu Sheng stopped his pace, turned his head to look at Qi Wenxiu, but smiled again, "Indeed." "Let's see what he can say.

Qi Wenxiu naturally saw that the third prince was a little unhappy, but he accepted it calmly, and he didn't think it would be too bad a seedling. Qi Wenxiu himself is only twenty-six or seventeen, and he naturally has the superiority of the elderly. "However, you are indeed more suitable for the throne than they are."

"It's a great sin of treason." Xu Sheng led the horse and said slowly.

"You are the emperor's three dragon sons, and it is justifiable to sit on the throne, why not?" Qi Wenxiu understood at this moment that he was not a person without ambition and desire, such a person was easy to control.

"Why not, it's just that I'm a rough person, why did Mr. Wolongzi choose me?" Xu Sheng laughed back, "As I just said, I am at a disadvantage everywhere, and none of them are superior. ”

"You have." Qi Wenxiu turned around and said, "That's me." The prince's qualifications are dull and his temperament is narrow-minded, and Prince Rui is not the world's ambitions, but the three princes, who are upright and upright in the world. Besides, I am a protégé of Mrs. Wen, and Mrs. Wen has a very good relationship with you. ”

Xu Sheng looked at the person in front of him, a pair of golden eyes, shining, "Upright, the blessing of the world?" My father often said that my eyes were animalistic, but they were uncivilized disasters, but you said that I was a blessing to the world? ”

"Whether it's a blessing or a curse, when you sit on the dragon seat, you can know."

"Good. Even so. Xu Sheng led the horse and still said, "You informed the second emperor brother today and suppressed the crown prince, and last time you helped the second emperor brother take the proton away from the prince. And what is this for? ”

"Lord Wang, think about it, am I helping you or helping him?" Qi Wenxiu said with a smile, "Now that the proton is in your hands, the prince is grounded, but he hates it so much that he is the prince of Rui." ”

Xu Sheng stopped his pace and looked at the person in front of him carefully, looking like a scholar, but he concealed it, easily stirring the biggest power vortex in the capital, his face was deep in thought with surprise, and he asked rhetorically, "Is this still your gift to me?" ”

"Exactly." Qi Wenxiu continued, "The power of the prince is not full, so it is not appropriate to expose it. The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind. ”

"Are you helping me use the knife of the Second Emperor Brother?" Xu Sheng suddenly realized, "Let him get rid of the prince?" ”

"Definitely." Qi Wenxiu added, "It's a lose-lose situation. ”

Xu Sheng thought for a while, then bowed down and saluted, "How can this king have the help of Mr. Hede." ”

Qi Wenxiu hurriedly helped up the prince of Tai'an, "It's just a good bird choosing a tree to perch on, and a cunning rabbit is a dead lackey to cook." Either of those two people's minds, when they win the world, I will no longer be able to live in the world. ”

Xu Sheng twisted the reins of the fierce horse in his hand.

Before arriving at the Tai'an Palace, Qi Wenxiu thanked the prince and left first.

Xu Sheng led the horse, stood in front of the Tai'an palace and looked at the plaque on the door, but it was a craftsman in the capital who rushed to work, the workmanship was rough, and it was not grand enough to put it on the door of the important ministers in the court, let alone put it in the prince's mansion. However, for the first time, Xu Sheng was so fortunate that he was hiding from the edge and was in the dark.

Otherwise, I really don't know how to deal with myself. Before, Xu Sheng also thought that Qi Wenxiu was just a first-order strategist, and today, he would definitely not be so simple, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he wanted to take the world of the Xu family.

In this way, it is not known who fights with the mussels and who benefits from the fishermen.

Xu Sheng returned to the mansion and arranged for someone to privately investigate Qi Wenxiu's background and background. It seems that the previous investigation was not thorough enough, and there were many doubts that had not been found before.

Open a secret passage from the room, step by step down the world, and there is a world below. Xu Sheng came to a Jiazi, which had a trap lock technique, and Xu Sheng rotated and twisted it a few times before opening the box.

There is only a book in such a precious and confidential box, which is very old, but it is very well preserved. Not a word on the cover. But he drew a ghostly shape with a third eye on his forehead, and if he didn't distinguish it carefully, he thought it was a child's random graffiti.

Xu Sheng continued to twist the box, and a mezzanine popped up at the bottom of the box, on which were several pages of paper.

Xu Sheng gently touched the ancient book and said, "It seems that I don't need you for the time being." ”

This ancient book was personally asked for by the carpenter Weng when he returned to Beijing last time, and he also spent a lot of effort to forge the key points of the last few pages. thought of giving a Wolongzi at the right time and letting him use it for himself, but now it seems that he can't use it.

After Xu Sheng arranged everything, he asked people to set up the meal and go to Si Koulin's room next door to eat together.

After this time, the child is no longer so resistant. Xu Sheng also developed the habit of eating together here in the evening.

Si Koulin was dressed in white, and the whole person looked like a snow doll, but the black hair like splashing ink was long and scattered over his shoulders, but it was delicate like a mountain elf in the script. It's also a shame that he's recovered a little bit from his illness recently, unlike before, as if he was as fragile as a snowman and would melt at any time.

"It's time to eat." Xu Sheng said hello, and then sat down at the table by himself, ready to eat, and he didn't need any etiquette rules for this child, after this time, he understood that he was like a good kitten.

Si Koulin hugged the white cat in his arms and sat down at the table. I just wanted to prepare for dinner, but was stopped by Xu Sheng, "Put the cat down." ”

Si Koulin reluctantly put down the snow-white white cat and silently began to eat.

A few days ago, Xu Sheng saw that the child was bored, and when he saw a white cat, he felt like him, so he asked the servant to buy it and gave it to him. Unexpectedly, in just a few days, I hugged him all day long.

What made Xu Sheng even more strange was that he used to think that this enemy country was a proton, restrained and introverted, and didn't like to talk, but he was also a normal person. In the past few days, I don't know if it's my own delusion or what, but I feel more and more like a cat.

It's still black hair splashed with ink, and it's still like a snow-white elf, but there's something wrong.

The occasionally revealed expression, every move, walking posture, and even demeanor are all like the white cat on the ground with a hint of laziness, alienation, and even primitive animal breath.

This is the unique intuitive feeling of a soldier tempered by Xu Sheng in the four years in the frontier.

Si Koulin took the initiative to clip a fish and put it in his bowl, sandwiched a large piece of fish meat and put it in his mouth, his tongue was flexible and chewed on the fish, his head was half lowered, his long black eyelashes were half lowered, and his eyes were pleasantly lost in the city, and his expression was lazy and natural.

It was a look he never had before.

Xu Sheng watched quietly while eating his meal, since he sent the cat two days ago, something was wrong, but today it is becoming more and more evil. Xu Sheng had heard that there were some people who were weak and weak and could be worshiped by evil.

I still can't believe it when I see it today.

But he didn't dare to bother. I have long heard that if a person who is in evil is frightened, he will be so frightened that his soul will not possess his body, and in serious cases, he will even become dementia.

Xu Sheng was not afraid, so he grabbed a small fish and put it on the ground. Beckoned the white cat to come and eat.

The white cat turned around twice, then slowly approached, and while vigilant, he quickly bit the small fish and went to the corner of the wall to eat slowly.

Xu Sheng looked at the white cat, and it didn't look like it was soulless.

Xu Sheng waited for the white cat to finish eating the small fish in three times and two by two, and got a little benefit, so he kept going around the dining table and meowing twice.

Xu Sheng picked up a small dried fish and just withdrew his hand.

I saw Si Koulin on the other side burying his head, sullenly stuffing the remaining three small dried fish into his bowl.

It's like a kitten that protects food. Xu Sheng looked at Si Koulin and thought.

Xu Sheng put the small fish on the ground, and this time the white cat did not take the small fish away, but ate it on the spot. Xu Sheng watched Si Koulin's movements attentively, and reached out to tentatively stroke the white cat.

The white cat instantly stiffened, and Si Koulin's eating action also stopped for a moment.

After a while, the white cat seemed to know that Xu Sheng would not pose any threat to him, so he slowly relaxed and concentrated on eating the small dried fish in his mouth.

But Si Koulin's side did not relax, but lowered his eyes, staring at Xu Sheng and slowly stroking the hand on the white cat's back, slowly, forcefully and gently.

Xu Sheng naturally noticed that Si Koulin was silently looking at this side, but he couldn't figure out what his abnormal attitude meant?

Perhaps there is a person who can help him by sending a pigeon to the carpenter.

If it was an ordinary thing, it would definitely not be able to trouble his old man, but this sneaky thing Xie Chong should not be neglected.

The white cat finished eating the small fish on the ground and fled as fast as he could. Sure enough, the cat is still not used to being close to people, which is very similar to the child.

Xu Sheng looked up at Si Koulin, who had returned to his original appearance, and was slowly eating small dried fish with his head down, like an elegant cat, only with two cat ears on his head and a cat tail wagging behind his back.

Xu Sheng chuckled and said, could it be that he was also fascinated by this evil spirit?

After eating, Xu Sheng returned to the room, wrote a secret note, and tied it at the feet of the white pigeon, which was really eventful.

When Xu Sheng was working at night, there was the sound of cats barking outside the window. It seems to have landed on the windowsill, or on the ginkgo tree outside the window.

Xu Sheng was curious, came to the window, opened the window, and the cold wind instantly poured into the room. In the cold wind, on the hundred-year-old ginkgo tree, facing the window, there was really the white cat, meowing.
