"These three points, Nie Xingji all meets." Qi Zhan blurted out.

"What did you say?" King Ning's face suddenly became ugly.

Qi Zhan was shocked, and he also regretted that he was fast-mouthed, and hurriedly explained: "Grandson is ...... Nie Xingji is our strong opponent, and Sun Er will definitely take it as his mission to defeat him. ”

King Ning still couldn't let go, and snorted coldly: "In terms of martial arts, Nie Xingji is not as good as you; In terms of talent, he is inferior to Yunchen; In terms of active mind, he is not as good as Che'er. You see, he seems to be good at everything, but in fact, he is not at the top of his class! ”

Nie Xingji had just defeated Ning Jun not long ago, and it was normal for Grandfather Wang to be dissatisfied with him, so Qi Zhan hurriedly echoed: "You are right, Sun Er will try to surpass him." ”

Seeing that Qi Zhan had made up his mind several times, King Ning didn't say anything more, stood up on the stone bench and said, "Okay, I'm really tired, let's go!" ”

"Yes." Qi Zhan held the box in one hand and King Ning in the other, and slowly walked out step by step. He felt that most of King Ning's body was leaning on him, and he couldn't help but secretly wonder about King Ning's condition, so he asked, "After you get out of the secret passage, do you need to ask the imperial doctor to check your pulse again?" ”

King Ning seemed unwilling to accept old age, and his face sank again: "No need, Lone's body is lonely, and he knows it in his heart." ”

Qi Zhan listened to his words, so he didn't persuade him again, and the grandfather and grandson returned to the door of the stone room. The two gatekeepers knelt down and saluted again, still as light and silent as Fang Cai, which made Qi Zhan feel sad for no reason, and seemed to be able to empathize.

At this moment, King Ning suddenly stopped for some reason, and his face showed a little hesitation.

Qi Zhan asked curiously, "Grandfather Wang?" ”

King Ning was awakened by this sound, turned his head to stare at him for a long time, and sighed: "That's it, you help me back." ”

Qi Zhan felt confused, but he still did so, and the two ancestors and grandchildren returned to the stone room one after another. King Ning asked Qi Zhan to take him back to his place, pointed to another box, and said, "There is a painting in this box, you take it out." ”

"Yes." Qi Zhan opened the box and saw that there were many items inside, including accessories, clothing, and embroidery, all of which were used by women, and they were very exquisite. There was only one painting of them, and he reached out and took it out.

"You're going to open the drawing."

Qi Zhan did as he said, spread the painting scroll on the stone bench, and carefully spread it out, and saw a young and beautiful woman in palace clothes leaping onto the paper. This woman has delicate eyebrows and eyes, looks to be at most seventeen or eighteen years old, and is dressed like a concubine in the palace, or some princess and princess.

"This is ......" Qi Zhan was puzzled.

"You take a closer look at her." King Ning stretched out a hand and slowly stroked the scroll, his expression suddenly becoming complicated and indescribable.

Qi Zhan followed King Ning's hand and looked closely, and always felt that this woman's face was a little familiar, but he couldn't say where he had seen it, in short, she was a beauty. He looked down at the inscription and suddenly realized that the painting had been made more than 30 years ago, but there was no person who wrote the painting on it, nor did it have any seal.

Qi Zhan doesn't know calligraphy and painting, so he can't judge how good this painting is, but the woman's smile is so vivid that it is as vivid as a real person, and he can probably see that the person who painted it is exquisite. Moreover, I don't know what process was used to preserve this painting so well, the color is as good as new, and there are no creases.

"The box you opened just now is your father's relic." King Ning suddenly sighed and said.

Father's relics? Is it the legendary promiscuous Prince Ning? His biological father? When Qi Zhan looked at the box of women's belongings again, his eyes gradually changed: "Who is she...... Is it a father's sweetheart? ”

"Hey!" King Ning sighed heavily, his face gloomy: "What I am about to tell you is the biggest secret of my life, and it is also your father's greatest hatred in this life. More than five years ago, the reason why I tried my best to make you the crown prince and grandson, and even did not hesitate to make Che'er hate me, was because I owed your father too much in this life, and I could only compensate for it on you. ”

"The woman in this painting, she is ......" King Ning slowly closed his eyes and fell into a painful memory.

*****

Half an hour later, the grandfather and grandson walked out of the secret passage again. King Ning was first angry today, and then sad, and also taught Qi Zhan that people were extremely tired. But he relieved himself of the burden in his heart and said to Qi Zhan with relief: "Remember what Gu said to you today, what should you do when you go to the battlefield, you must know in your heart and be proportionate." ”

Qi Zhan just heard a shocking secret, and the feeling in his heart was indescribable, and he couldn't slow down for a while, and his expression was in a trance.

Seeing this, King Ning gave him another reassuring pill: "Zhan'er, remember, no matter what, Grandfather Wang only wants you to inherit the unification, and no one else can." ”

Qi Zhan held the heavy box of military books in his arms, as if he held all the hopes of King Ning in his hands, and it was not until this moment that he suddenly realized that he had never really understood the responsibility of a king's grandson, let alone accurately measured the value of being a king's grandson.

Bidding farewell to King Ning, Qi Zhan personally returned to the East Palace with the box, and his thoughts were heavy along the way. But he didn't expect that as soon as he went back, a eunuch reported: "Your Royal Highness, Prince Wei has been waiting for you for a long time." ”

Qi Zhan felt a little bored, he could almost guess what Yuan Che would do and say something, but since the other party had already found the door, he couldn't hide.

The eunuch wanted to take the box in his hand, but he was not at ease, so he personally carried the box to the front hall. Before entering the door, I saw Yuan Che sitting on a pear blossom wooden chair, drinking tea leisurely, the wound on his forehead had been treated, wrapped in a piece of white gauze, which made that handsome face a little ridiculous.

Qi Zhan stood outside the door and stared at Yuan Che's face for a long time before he reluctantly stepped into the threshold and forced himself closer: "I heard that Brother Che is looking for me?" Keeping you waiting for a long time, I don't know what's going on? ”

Hearing Qi Zhan's voice, Yuan Che put down the teacup with a "snap", stood up and sneered: "His Royal Highness the Prince, my good brother, you are really majestic today, you ......"

As soon as he said this, Yuan Che's eyes were suddenly attracted by the box in Qi Zhan's arms. He had seen it countless times, and had nearly lost his life to it, and he thought to himself that no one knew it better than he did. Yuan Che couldn't help but change his face greatly: "Where did you get this box?" ”

Qi Zhan looked down and pretended to be relaxed: "Grandfather Wang gave it." ”

Yuan Che didn't say a word and went up to check: "What's in it?" ”

Qi Zhan hurriedly took a step back and dodged: "Grandfather Wang has instructed that this box is not allowed to be touched by anyone except me. ”

Yuan Che was suspicious: "You shouldn't lie to me with an empty box, right?" ”

Qi Zhan sneered, did not answer, and asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

It's okay not to mention it, but when he mentioned it, Yuan Che was annoyed, and scolded mercilessly: "Don't pretend to be garlic, what do you mean today?" You live in the palace, when can't you see the old man? You'll see you when I come back to my life, right? You still please Ying, and analyze the reason for Lao Tzu's loss, can you bear it? You're dead, aren't you? ”

Every time Yuan Che scolded, his hand knocked on the box to relax Qi Zhan's vigilance. At the end of the scolding, he suddenly opened the box with lightning speed and took a look inside.

At just one glance, his heart was cold - the military books he worked so hard to find, the military books that he only found after a piece of meat fell off his buttocks, and the military books that were robbed by the old man halfway are all here! The baby he spent half a year to find, so he made a wedding dress for someone else!

Yuan Che's fire burst into flames, "Ahh You're a thief! You're a thief! You stole my stuff! You give it back to me! ”

Qi Zhan had just learned the shocking secret today, and he had no intention of messing with Yuan Che at all, so he couldn't help but say with a cold face: "Yuan Che, you respect yourself!" ”

"Am I self-respecting? Why don't you say that you pick a ready-made cheap? How do you not have self-respect? Yuan Che hated the root of his teeth: "I don't know what ecstasy soup you drank for the old man during my leading army!" With a thief grandson like you, how suspicious is the old man, can he believe you again? I don't believe it if I die! ”

Qi Zhan held back his anger and reiterated impatiently: "I repeat, I have no ill intentions, and I have never planted any eyeliner beside Grandfather Wang. That Wang Tuo in your house is not my person! I don't know at all! ”

"Huh! Dare to do it, don't dare to admit it! Yuan Che didn't believe it at all, he just wanted to deal with Qi Zhan. The shame of defeat, Qi Zhan's words, and the hatred of being robbed...... At this moment, all gathered in Yuan Che's heart, transforming into an impulsive devil. He stared at Qi Zhan for a moment, and suddenly punched him, but fortunately, the guards of the East Palace heard the wind and stopped it in time, so Yuan Che did not succeed.

Seeing that he was still unrepentant, Qi Zhan simply put down the box, grabbed his neck, and said coldly: "In terms of kung fu, you are not as strong as me; When it comes to murder, you can't compare to me; In terms of identity, I am also above you. Yuan Che, if you provoke me again, don't blame me for being unkind to you! ”

Qi Zhan was ruthless at the moment, and pinched Yuan Che's face red in an instant, but the latter still gritted his teeth and refused to admit defeat, staring at Qi Zhan with a pair of handsome eyes, and his hatred was not concealed.

Qi Zhan saw that he couldn't hold it anymore, so he suddenly let go of his hand and said angrily: "I'm not in the mood to mess around with you, and you are not welcome in the East Palace, get out!" ”

Yuan Che covered his neck with his hands and coughed for a long time, and said with a smile: "Ahem...... Ahem...... I knew that you wouldn't dare kill me...... Ahem, you still have to be a good grandson...... Ahem......"

Qi Zhan was really annoyed, and he couldn't bear it anymore, a pair of eagle-like eyes glared sharply at Yuan Che, and his killing intent suddenly rose: "Because of my identity, I naturally won't do it myself." But don't forget where I came from! If Momen wants you to die, you won't live tomorrow! Get lost! ”

Yuan Che was stunned when he heard this, and was thinking about how to win back his momentum, but he saw a eunuch hurriedly running in, panting and saying: "His Royal Highness the King Sun, His Royal Highness the Prince of the World, the King Xuan You two are here!" ”
