Old Man Shen frowned and looked at the eldest grandson, he didn't expect that it was only two months, but Shen actually had such a deep concern and affection for that Xue Nuo, and even regarded that child as his own responsibility.

Neither want to be exiled nor send people out.

He said in a deep voice, "Why do you think you can teach him well?" What if he still has a hard time changing his nature? ”

Shen didn't know what the future would be, but no matter how bad it was, it wouldn't be worse than in his dream, he smiled bitterly and said, "Grandfather, how do you want me to answer?" All I can do is try to make him better, and I try to restrain him, and who can say what will happen in the future? ”

Seeing Shen Zhongkang's face calm, he said,

"Human nature is inherently complex, and it is so easy to say good and evil."

"Seven years ago, before Princess Yongzhao was guilty, did grandfather ever think that Xu Lizhen would betray, and did he ever expect that His Majesty, who was so affectionate as a brother and sister, would wash the princess's mansion in blood, and expected that those who had followed Princess Yongzhao for many years and sang praises for her would step on her bones and climb up after her death?"

"They are still like this, how much more ...... Arnold"

"Smack!"

The chess pieces in Shen Zhongkang's hand fell heavily on the chessboard, and he looked at Shen Qi angrily.

The candle flame on the table was swaying by the wind, but Shen looked at Shen Zhongkang with a fierce gaze, and was silent for a moment before getting up and kneeling down in front of the couch: "It's my grandson who said the wrong thing, please punish my grandfather." ”

Shen Zhongkang's breathing was a little heavy, and his knuckles tightened as his fingers grasped the corners of the chessboard.

"What if I insist that you kick people out?"

"The grandson is not worried about him, so he can only confess to his grandfather first."

“……”

Shen Zhongkang was almost laughed at by him, what did this mean that if he insisted on taking Xue Nuo away, his eldest grandson would also go with him? That little doll gave her grandson a trick?!

"You're going to hold me hostage again?"

"The grandson didn't dare, but the grandson promised him that he would protect him."

Shen softened his expression and said seriously,

"Grandfather, you have taught me since I was a child, and people cannot stand without faith."

"I know what you're worried about, if I keep him by my side and still can't restrain him, he will really become a scourge as you said, that is the incompetence of the grandson, even if he risks his life to go to the grandson, he will definitely take him personally, but before that, it is not fair to condemn him just by nature."

Shen Zhongkang wanted to sneer when he heard the words of the eldest grandson.

Fair?

How can there be so much fairness in this world, from the beginning of reincarnation, people are divided into three, six, nine and so on.

Some people are born high, and they spend money in brocade clothes, and some people are born poor and low, and they work hard every day for their stomachs, but they can't say anything about Shen Qi's eyes and ridicule when they reach their mouths.

After a while, the old man snorted coldly:

"Whatever you want!"

"Since you want to keep the person, then take a good look at him, you should know the current situation of the Shen family, Your Majesty has long been jealous of the Shen family because the crown prince is very jealous, and everyone is staring at you in it, and if you make a mistake, it will be a matter of the head."

"Don't let him cause trouble that shouldn't be caused, otherwise even if you intercede for him at that time, I won't be able to spare him!"

Shen Ke suddenly showed his face: "Grandson understands." ”

Before the two grandparents finished playing a game of chess, Shen Zhongkang seemed to be annoyed with him, and asked Shen to leave first.

When he arrived in the outer courtyard, Shen couldn't help but feel a little annoyed when he stood in front of the door and looked back at Shen Zhongkang under the candle shadow in the room, he shouldn't have mentioned the matter of Princess Yongzhao just now.

After Shen Zhongkang watched the eldest grandson leave the yard, he couldn't help but curse in a low voice: "Stinky boy, I haven't learned anything else, but I know how to poke at people's sore spots!" ”

If it weren't for his own grandson, he would have had to beat him to death.

After the anger on Shen Zhongkang's face just now dissipated, he looked at the chess pieces that had not been played, and said to the window,

"Come out."

There was a small noise behind the window, and a moment later someone came out of the shadows.

Shen Zhongkang said: "Did you hear it? ”

Xue Nuo looked up at him slightly.

Through a window lattice, the house is brightly lit.

When the old man sat by the window and looked out, his eyes fell on the cold expression that stood in the night, not at all like the handsome young man who deliberately showed a smile when he was ingenious before.

"My grandson has been strict with rules since he was a child, and he rarely talks back to me, and he always wanted to teach him integrity, kindness, affection, and righteousness, but he forgot to let him know the way of the treacherous people in this world."

"You've always had something to say." Why scold her for being cunning?

Shen Zhongkang looked at him with heavy eyes: "Who are you?" ”

"Yanling refugees."

"I don't believe it."

"Who does the old man think I should be?"

Shen Zhongkang frowned at him.

"Since the old man has already asked people to check me out, if there is really a problem with my identity, you are afraid that you would have kicked me out of the Shen family a long time ago, so why do you have to talk to me here?"

"Just because I can't find it doesn't mean you're fine."

Shen Zhongkang did not hide that he had ordered someone to investigate Xue Nuo's matter.

After the flood in Yanling, the population of the nearby villages and towns was extremely chaotic, and those who died died, those who fled, or those who fled to other places due to the flood, or fell into the grass under the flow.

If someone gets involved in the process of concealing their origins and walking with a group of refugees for months, it is not easy to find out their identity.

Shen Zhongkang said in a deep voice: "Although I can't find out your identity, you are by no means an ordinary refugee, maybe even the word Xue Nuo is fake." ”

Xue Nuo raised his eyebrows and didn't speak.

Shen Zhong looked at her steadily, immersed in the court for decades, even if the officials of the DPRK and China were fashionable and worried in the face of him, but the young man in front of him was unmoved.

Shen Zhongkang knew that if he wanted to test her with words, he might not be able to.

His expression calmed down: "I don't want to explore what you came to the capital for, and I don't want to know what you want to do today." ”

"But since you came to the Shen family, you will abide by the rules of the Shen family, if you let me know that you use Changlin and Changrui, don't say that Changyuan intercedes for you, it is useless for anyone to come."

"No matter who you are or what you rely on, but in the Shen family's one-third of an acre, I think it won't be difficult if I really want to deal with you."

Xue Nuo looked at Shen Zhongkang who was guarding the calf slightly, he didn't doubt that he saw this, but he was just curious: "Since you all know that today's incident was intentional on my part, why didn't you tell Shen Ke?" ”

"Tell him something."

Shen Zhongkang sneered, "Tell him that the person who is bent on protecting is a liar who has more eyes than holes?" Or tell him that after you used him to enter the Shen family, you also used his favorite brother to do things for you? ”

"He treats you like a lamb, but you fool him?"

Shen Zhongkang fiddled with the chess pieces in his hand and said,

"Since he is an official in the court, sooner or later he will have to go through these things, and I can't protect him for the rest of my life."

"Since he chose to leave you behind, no matter what the consequences are, he should suffer by himself, if you can treat this friendship well, it will naturally be the best, but if you still live up to it in the end, then it can only be said that he deserves to know no one, and it just allows you to sharpen his heart, let him come out of the high walls of the Shen family, and go to that senseless soft-hearted and benevolent."
