Tie Songke continued to recount the past.

The meeting was fruitless, and Lao Guozun could only order everyone to retreat. But secretly, he invited Tie Songke back and asked him for his opinion alone.

The reason why Lao Guozun attaches so much importance to Tie Songke may be because Xihan has always been going downhill, and he is becoming more and more weak when he competes with Donghan, and it is not until Tiesongke enters the main weapon Daofu that he has some advantages in armor and magic weapons.

Moreover, in the imperial court, Tie Songke is always in a state of dissociation, almost an outsider. The so-called authorities are fascinated, bystanders are clear, and Tie Songke's opinions are impossible for Lao Guozun not to pay attention to.

Tie Songke saw that there was no one else, so he expressed his opinion: Honestly, he thought that Shen should become a prince.

First, the words are in front, it seems that the throne belongs to the palace of King An, which is the will of heaven. Second, what Mrs. Luo said is right, in recent years, the West Cold has suffered internal and external troubles, and it really needs to boost people's hearts.

But after all, Shen Cheng only has five grades, and he has set up a child as a young respect, and after it is passed out, he is afraid that the enemy country will immediately know: Xihan has panicked and has chosen a path.

So Tie Songke suggested a compromise: canonize Xiao Shen Cheng but not issue a report to the world, and the secret decree was only issued to important people above the second grade, and first stabilize the overall situation.

Lao Guozun weighed it for a long time, and finally agreed to Tie Songke's suggestion.

In this way, Xiao Shen Cheng was held in the hands of his father, and Yu Chongling entered the new generation of young masters, which can be said to be unprecedented, and I don't know if there will be anyone behind.

Lao Guozun also issued an edict to King An, Gu Taishi and the emperor at the same time, warning them: Shen Cheng must not be allowed to make any mistakes. He also agreed to King An's request: send all the people who married Mrs. Ying out of the palace.

Since then, King An has been respected by the country, and he has not even been in the court, staying in the palace all day long to deal with official business, never leaving Xiao Shen Cheng, and guiding him to cultivate hand in hand.

It didn't take long for Xiao Shen Cheng to be the fifth grade complete, but unexpectedly, when he was in the fourth grade, he couldn't absorb the ice essence......

"Cheng'er, your Shen family's dream of respect has been shattered again, and if you are someone else, you must go crazy!" Tie Songke sighed, "Fortunately, your father himself has experienced heaven and earth, and in the end he has survived it again." But this temperament has changed abruptly again......"

Shen Cheng was gloomy when he heard this, recalling that his father had become cold and mean at that time, and he was angry with himself at every turn, and he either punished or scolded......

"Master knows that you have been very aggrieved in your heart all these years. Tie Songke explained: "Yes, you have done anything wrong! But you should understand that your father is a man who has a deep hope and will only be responsible." ”

Shen Cheng bowed his head and said, "I understand." ”

Tie Songke stared at his beloved apprentice's expression, read from it that it was not true, sighed in his heart, and continued to tell Shen Cheng about the ......

--------

Shen Chengxiu was interrupted in the middle of the repair, and in the eyes of the imperial court, there were worries and joys.

The worry is that it is not easy to find the heirs of Guoding, but the bamboo basket is empty.

The good thing is that Xiao Shen Cheng is the son-in-law of King An after all - that's fine, the turmoil in Changbai Pass is unforgettable, and no one wants to come again.

After Gu Taishi found out, he couldn't help but be proud of his words, and sneered: "Retribution! Retribution!"

Soon, Gu Taishi and Jia Luanyi joined forces with the Cai clan and suggested to the old Guozun: Since Shen Cheng can't even advance to the fourth grade, this young master should be abolished quickly. Otherwise, the Shen family took the opportunity to further grow, but I was afraid that it would be difficult to end in the future.

Lao Guozun asked Tie Songke to discuss it alone.

Tie Songke thinks that he can be deposed, but he must leave room for it, after all, the rumors are in the palace of King An. The difficulty of providence, the impermanence of respect, and perhaps there is another mystery in the dark? Who can say clearly.

At the suggestion of Tie Songke, Lao Guozun finally decided to abolish Shen Cheng Shaozun, but the will was only an oracle, which was secretly issued to the three princes of the three mansions and the emperor Cai Xun.

There are no impermeable walls. Whether it is the three princes of the three mansions or the emperor, they all have their own henchmen, so in fact, not many people know about this edict. Presumably, only those ministers who remain neutral will be kept in the dark......

--------

Hearing this, Shen Cheng understood: No wonder my father said that I had been deposed, but he wanted me to keep it secret......

"Help, no matter what," Tie Songke said, "after all, it is a ...... of work."

"Yes," Shen Cheng continued: "Later, Gong'er entered the Mengshu Dao, and Bingfu was also very good, and my father's heart was put on Gong'er from then on." As for me," he sneered, "hehe, I'll have to fend for myself." ”

"He's your father after all!" Tie Songke persuaded, and then continued: Because King An taught Shen Cheng to go on a business trip, Lao Guozun adopted Jia Luan's advice and let Luo Taifu teach Shen Gong instead.

"Cheng'er," Tie Songke asked, "do you know what that means?"

"I think it's ......" Shen Cheng said: "You want to remove my father's influence on Gong'er?"

Tie Songke nodded.

"I'm afraid someone is going to be very disappointed. Shen Cheng sneered, "Gong'er is pure by nature, not to mention my father, it's me, and Gong'er has always loved it!"

Tie Songke shook his head disappreprehensibly, and was about to continue to speak, Shen Cheng rushed to say: "Later, Cheng'er is very fortunate to have met you, Master! Cheng'er wants to enter the Qi Mansion and change to the Qi Dao, but my father insists on not allowing it, if it weren't for my mother's tears all day long......

"Cheng'er," Tie Songke explained, "Let me tell you, once two people join forces in the Three Princes and Three Mansions, the balance will be upset, which will cause a big taboo." Your Shen family's dream of respect has been shattered and revealed, and your father attaches too much importance to the throne......"

"I see, hehe, 'Respect for the throne is more important than everything'!" Shen Cheng's eyes already had a hazy light, and Qi Qi said: "When Xiaobai was drowned, Third Uncle Wang advised my father that he should not be too unfair to me, and that's what my father said...... Ho ho, I deserve not to be angry!"

"Cheng'er, you shouldn't ......"

"Master, you don't know, the apprentice reported to him the progress of the Dao today, but he scolded the apprentice for showing off the cross-grade refining weapon! In his eyes, there is only the Dao of Arts, only the honorable position, and Shen Cheng, who has no future in the Dao, will become worthless!"

"Adult ......"

"Master, the apprentice has something to say in the bottom of my heart, I have been holding it for a long time, and I dare to tell you today......

Shen Cheng tilted his neck to the sky and blinked hard. When he lowered his head again, his expression was already a little indifferent, "...... Since Xiaobai's death, the disciple has only been willing to call him his father...... In the hearts of the disciples, they only remember the great kindness of their mother's nurturing, and there is no more father......"

"Cheng'er ......" Tie Songke could only pat Shen Cheng on the shoulder and continue to recount the past.

--------

After Xiao Shen Gong was successfully promoted to the fourth grade, Lao Guozun convened the three mansions and three princes again to discuss the canonization of Shen Gong as a young honor.

This time, everyone, including King An and Emperor Cai Xun, agreed, only Tie Songke refused to express his position.

"Cheng'er, the teacher didn't say a word at the time, but Lao Guozun didn't consult the teacher alone. Tie Songke compared Shen Cheng: "You analyze and analyze, why is this?"
