"It's been a long time." When the prince sat down on the small side, his voice said casually: "Sit." ”

"Yes, thank you, Your Highness."

After Ji Nanxian sat down, he said with a smile: "Your Highness seems to be in a good mood. ”

The crown prince nodded: "One of the new men who was invited into the palace today is quite skilled in traditional Chinese medicine, and after my father took the medicine he prescribed, his situation is much better." My father rested after the dinner, and he might be able to get a good night's sleep tonight. ”

Ji Nanxian: "That's fine. ”

"And what happened this morning, have you heard?" The prince took the tea cup brought to him by his henchmen and asked with a smile.

Ji Nanxian said truthfully: "I have heard a little, but I don't know the details." ”

"Then I'll listen to you." The prince took a sip of hot tea to moisten his throat, and then told Ji Nanxian about today's affairs as they were.

"In this way, Xiao Jie, you really should thank Your Highness." Ji Nanxian said: "After today, the rumors about the so-called private treasure map, Dingbei Hou will finally be able to get rid of seven or eight out of ten." ”

"Xiao Jie's envoy entered Beijing this time, he came with sincerity, I just did what I had to do." The prince said slowly: "Xiao Jieenvoy is a rare smart person, so although he is sincere, he may not have no way back...... Since ancient times, it is not without precedent for the king to force his ministers to rebel, isn't the second brother a bloody example? ”

Rebellion is a mistake, of course, but it is a great mistake.

He often wonders, what the second brother really wants, is it really the throne? Or is he just trying to use the imperial power to get justice for himself?

But in the eyes of his father, the second brother was just a rebel son who betrayed him.

The second brother's actions are indeed too extreme, trying to make his father reflect on this, so that his father can see his mistakes - the reason does not make sense, so he can only use the blood of the sword to prove right and wrong.

But this idea may be extremely difficult to achieve.

The father does not know how to reflect, or ...... The father did not dare to reflect.

These days, he often heard his sick father say something old, but those words were still full of self-deceptive resentment and anger.

Ji Nanxian lowered his eyes when he heard this, and did not take this sentence about King Jin.

He has always been cautious in his words and deeds, and the prince has long been accustomed to it and can understand it very well, so he just went straight down and said: "Xiao Jie's envoy and the second brother are naturally different, the difference is that the former's situation is more difficult and dangerous, and a little carelessness is an abyss. My father and emperor have almost lost the ability to make their own judgments, and most of the Chinese official clans regard Xiao Jie's envoy as a foreign enemy, so if I stand by and watch again, what is the difference between me and forcing people to rebel? ”

Hearing him use the words "forcing people to rebel", Ji Nanxian's heart rose with admiration: "Your Highness is very good." ”

Those who are born supreme are often extremely difficult to empathize with those who are struggling under the throne, and arrogance and indifference are mostly engraved in their bones.

"I can't talk about good words." The prince smiled: "It's also for myself, at such a juncture, Dasheng really can't withstand the big turmoil, I'm just weighing the pros and cons, and I have two thoughts to win people's hearts - although I have never regarded the teacher faction as a real rival, but I don't want to be a puppet in the future, many things have to be guarded against, so I really need a person like Xiao Jie, willing to stand by my side, balance the situation for me." ”

"His Royal Highness just said that 'forcing people to rebel', just as the sister in the family used to say, a person who was about to starve to death was desperate and stole a steamed bun to survive, although it was wrong, but there is no need to be ashamed." Ji Nanxian said: "In the same way, as the prince, if His Royal Highness has a benevolent heart and no means to plan, it will be difficult to control the stability of the country - for the long-term stability of all the people in the world, and to rule, even if he has a mind to calculate, he will not fall behind, not for the unkind, but for the great good." ”

The prince shook his head with a smile: "Nanxian, you are even a sycophant now." ”

Ji Nanxian also smiled and said, "It's just a heartfelt word." ”

"Speaking of which, Sister Ling has great wisdom." The prince sighed: "Among the three brothers and sisters in your family, in fact, the little lady is the most auspicious Taifu's true inheritance, not only in terms of knowledge, but also in the unique insight of life and enlightenment. ”

"Yes." Ji Nanxian nodded with a smile in agreement: "When the ancestor was alive, he often said that Ah Heng is the most talented among our brothers and sisters, so the ancestor likes to take her with him the most, and personally teach her everything, and often say that Ah Heng will be better than the blue in the future——"

Only later......

Ah Weng left early, and Ah Heng suffered such a big change again.

The prince obviously thought of this, but he didn't show regret, but said: "Maybe it's the little lady Ji who has had an experience that others haven't had, and only when she is in a difficult situation can she have the ability to empathize." ”

As he spoke, he looked at Ji Nanxian with a smile: "The many qualities of the little lady Ji are also very helpful if they are used in governing the country...... Nanxian, this stealing of the teacher, I can count on you. ”

Ji Nanxian smiled and sighed: "I'm a brother, I've been better than her everywhere since I was a child, and now I've ended up stealing a teacher......"

The prince borrowed his words and said with relief: "For the long-term plan of the country, there is no need to be ashamed. ”

The two laughed for a moment and ate half a cup of tea.

When he put down the teacup, Ji Nanxian said: "Speaking of which, His Royal Highness has the heart of the Lord and the Lord, if Xiao Jie makes this time also come to seek peace, then he is really a fellow traveler." ”

Xiao Mu came to seek peace this time, and he already knew about it from his sister, but it was not appropriate to speak clearly to the prince at the moment.

Fortunately, judging from the current situation, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has also chosen this path, and if he can really be a "fellow traveler", it will be the best situation.

"yes." The prince said: "I really want to have a good talk with Xiao Jie, talk." It's just that I have treated him a lot in the early court today, and if I have too close contacts with him in private, don't say that the teacher and their officials are the father, and I am afraid that I will be suspicious at this juncture. If it really arouses the suspicion of my father, it will be a great trouble for me and him. ”

Ji Nanxian nodded: "Your Highness is right, this matter is not in a hurry, there is always a chance." ”

"Then again...... the prince didn't know what he was thinking, and suddenly lowered his voice and thought about it.

The Jinan string is ready to wait.

"Little lady Ji is going back to Beijing with Xiao Jie's envoy this time?" The prince asked.

Ji Nanxian: "? ”

Here we go again, huh?

"My sister was afraid that she would not be stable when she was traveling alone, so she followed Xiao Jie and his party back to Beijing." Ji Nanxian explained: "But after that, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess asked Shao Yan to pick up people, so it was divided into two ways, and the sister returned to Beijing one day early. ”

"I see." The prince smiled knowingly, and asked again: "Then this time the little lady Ji returned home, did you mention the envoy of Xiao Jie?" ”

Ji Nanxian only said: "I mentioned it, but when I was in the north, Xiao Jie made the mother and son take care of her." ”

The prince's eyes lit up slightly: "Oh? According to this, Mrs. Xiao is also very satisfied with the little lady Ji? ”

Ji Nanxian: "......"

That's not what he was trying to say?

I only smiled helplessly and begged for mercy: "Your Highness, don't make fun of your sister......"

"It's no joke, my instincts have always been very accurate." The prince smiled: "How about you and I make a bet?" ”

"What does Your Highness want to bet on?"

"I'm betting on whether I can become a matchmaker between Xiao Jie's envoy and Ling Mei in the future——"

Ji Nanxian laughed again: "Your Highness has never even seen her sister standing with Xiao Jie's envoy...... Why is there such a deep obsession? Is it just based on the few words of the previous minister? ”

How else can it be called intuition? Do you just say to gamble or not? ”

"Your Highness wants to gamble, then Nanxian will accompany you." Ji Nanxian privately felt that the chance of winning the bet should be quite large.

Although he had suspected that his sister and Dingbei Hou had a great relationship before, his sister also made it clear the night before that the two were in an alliance, and his breath had been relieved.

As for Ah Yao's marginal speculations, they are just cranky.

As for Ah Heng's unscrupulous temperament, if he really has a sweetheart, he can't make everyone in the family know about it?

When the prince was thinking about what bet to make, he heard a voice from the palace people outside the study: "Your Highness, the county lord asks to see." ”

"Let people in." The prince also put down the teacup and subconsciously looked at the door that had been pushed open.

A little girl of about seven or eight years old, wearing a bun and a goose yellow skirt, walked in and saluted dignifiedly: "Father, Lord Ji." ”

Ji Nanxian stood up and saluted: "County Lord." ”

"Why did Yi'er come here at this time, what is the matter of looking for my father?" The prince's voice was gentle and smiling.

"I'm not here to find my father, I'm here to find Lord Ji." The county lord of Jiayi looked at Ji Nanxian: "I'll return Lord Ji's book." ”

Hearing this, the prince looked at the box held in the hand of the female envoy who followed her, and couldn't help but wonder: "Nanxian, when did you borrow the book for her?" ”

Ji Nanxian was also stunned when he heard this: "Didn't His Highness ask the county lord to come to Xiang Chen to find some local travel notes to see?" ”

"When did I say that?" The prince looked at his daughter.

The girl raised her chin confidently: "If I don't say that, I'm afraid that Master Ji won't borrow it." ”

The prince sighed and shook his head: "If you want to read any books, just ask your teacher for it-"

As he spoke, he suddenly remembered: "Oh, I forgot, you drove the new teacher away two days ago—but I haven't had time to ask you, where did this Young Master Zou offend you?" You said before that those teachers would only teach you chess, piano, calligraphy and painting, and you wanted to change to a history teller...... Why, isn't the history book of Young Master Zou bad? ”

"Of course not." The girl pursed her mouth and said, "When I talked about the history of the Spring and Autumn Period, he told me the story of a widow who cut off her nose in order to observe the festival. When it came to the Western Han Dynasty, he picked out "The Biography of the Daughters" and talked about it for several days! Father, you say, is this a history? ”

The prince did not answer and asked: "So, you don't like to hear this?" ”

"Of course, what I want to listen to is a serious subset of scriptures, and they are simply fooling me." The girl thought about it and frowned: "You said, if I am a royal grandson and not a county lord, will they still be so foolish?" ”

"Then change again." The prince still didn't answer, but said, "Until you are satisfied." ”

There are some things that he wants Yi'er to think about by herself, explore by herself, and choose by herself.

"I already have the teacher I want." The girl smiled and looked at Ji Nanxian: "I want Ji to be a teacher." ”

"Oh?" The prince smiled and raised his eyebrows: "So returning the book is an excuse, and the apprenticeship is true?" ”

"This ......" Ji Nanxian smiled flatteredly, but he was more puzzled: "How can the minister be the teacher of the county lord?" ”

"Master Ji is too modest, although I am only eight years old this year, I have also heard of Mr. Qinghan's name, and you are a serious Jinshi, why can't you be my teacher?" The county lord of Jiayi said with admiration in his eyes: "Besides, I have read your annotations on these books seriously, such a vision, such a mind and understanding, I only feel suddenly enlightened, as if there is another world, these are exactly what I am fascinated by!" ”

The prince couldn't help but smile when he heard this: "Nanxian, it seems that she really wants to apprentice, you know her temperament, if you don't agree, she is afraid that she will have to grind." ”

"Ke ......" Ji Nanxian smiled and said: "Kechen has never made any annotations on these books, and the county lord is afraid that he has misunderstood." ”

"Shouldn't Lord Ji coax me to shirk this matter?" The county lord of Jiayi pointed to the box in the hand of the female envoy: "These travelogues seem interesting to me, I wanted to make people go out of the palace to buy a few volumes back, but after inquiring, I learned that they are all unique books, but they are the only ones in the family of Lord Ji, this annotation is not made by Lord Ji, who can it be?" ”

Ji Nanxian shook his head and smiled: "The minister hasn't read it carefully, and he still has to take a look to find out." ”

The envoy brought the box.

He opened it, took out a notebook and flipped through the page with annotations, smiled, and said, "The county lord really misunderstood, the annotations on this side look at the handwriting, which was left by the sister a few years ago." ”

Lord Jiayi was stunned and blinked his eyes: "Lord Ji's sister? ”

"Yes, there are two younger sisters in the minister's family, and what the minister is talking about is the younger sister Hengyu."

The county lord of Jiayi was very curious: "Dare to ask how old this lady is this year?" ”

"Eighteen years of age."

"Eighteen-year-old girl......" Lord Jiayi was surprised: "This is another ...... a few years ago"

The girl was stunned for a while, and then her eyes became brighter and brighter, and she said firmly: "Then I want Ji Niangzi to be a teacher!" ”

The crown prince and Ji Nanxian glanced at each other, and both smiled.

"What? Didn't my father just say that he would change until I was satisfied? The lord of Jiayi was afraid that his father would not agree, so he hurriedly said: "If you want me to say, although Ji Niangzi has no official status and no fame, in terms of knowledge and knowledge, it is easy to take the top prize." ”

"It's not because of whether you have merit or not, whether you are an official or not." The prince looked at the girl and said with a smile: "The matter of apprenticeship is not trivial, the character of the little lady Ji is much more powerful than yours, it is not that you call to come, and you can rush if you want to rush - you might as well go and inquire with your aunt first, and after learning about the deeds of the lady Ji, it is not too late to make a decision." ”

Deeds?

The county lord of Jiayi was a little puzzled and a little curious when he heard it.

A quarter of an hour later, the crown princess, who had just finished bathing and was sitting at the dressing table, was twisted by the maid when she saw her daughter running in like a wind.

opened his mouth to say a word, and he said breathlessly: "Ah Niang, do you know Ji Xiaoniang?" ”

……

Hengyu, who was leaning on the couch and reading a book, suddenly sneezed.
