That feeling is mysterious and mysterious, but Sima Ke can perceive its existence very clearly.

This guy who claimed to be Ouyang Zhi of Shuzhou really made him feel very cordial, as if there should have been something involved between them.

I can't say it, and I can't understand it.

But this did not prevent Sima Ke from getting close to him.

In the same way, the same is true for Ouyang Zhi.

He himself was confused, he didn't understand how this prince could be so kind to him, did he know the relationship between himself and his father?

But think about it.

He knows Chen Yuan's character, he doesn't like publicity, and it is impossible for him to reveal such a relationship to others.

Even, even half of his son didn't want to admit it, and he still posted it himself.

He thought about it, but he just attributed it to the word 'fate'.

Sima Ke was very enthusiastic, as if he regarded the Wu'an Hou Mansion as his home, and he was very enthusiastic about Ouyang Zhi, and began to ask about the relationship between Ouyang Zhi and Chen Yuan.

Ouyang Zhi picked up what he could say and began to tell, saying that they met in the Valley of Tibetan Soldiers.

Sima Ke kept bowing his head, secretly admiring Chen Yuan's methods, he could maintain such a closeness to people who had never met at all, and he still needed to learn more from him.

After Ouyang Zhi finished speaking, he was not silent, and seeing that this prince had no arrogance, he also began to ask about his relationship with Chen Yuan.

Sima Ke laughed, and did not shy away from saying that they had had some enemies before, but both sides did not take it to heart, and gradually turned enemies into friends.

As for how to defeat the enemy, then he naturally can't go into details.

Later, Sima Ke also revealed that his sister from the same origin is the eldest princess today, and she is also one of the protagonists in the capital who may marry Chen Yuan.

When he landed, Ouyang Zhi was shocked in his heart, and he secretly speculated.

After saying this, Sima Ke was not very happy, and began to talk about a series of important things that Chen Yuan had done in the capital, except for hiding the matter of abolishing the emperor's relatives and relatives, he said everything else.

made Ouyang Zhi admire Chen Yuan even more.

Secretly, what his mother once said was indeed not wrong, Chen Yuan's future is very broad, he wants to revive the Ouyang family and the Tibetan Soldier Valley, and Chen Yuan is indispensable for his help.

No wonder his mother is obsessed with him, such a strange man in the world, who is not confused when he sees it?

On the other side, Chen Yuan, who had been sitting in Zhang's Mansion for a while, got up to say goodbye, and Second Sister Zhang personally sent him out of the gate, revealing a sense of closeness that was even worse than before.

Chen Yuan even thought that if he took the initiative, it was estimated that he would be able to take down this woman.

became Zhang Xuan's brother-in-law.

But that's not how it works.

Zhang Xuan is his friend, and Zhang Yantong has repeatedly supported him and released kindness, but he really doesn't want to delay Second Sister Zhang, especially at this juncture.

is not fake to the royal woman, but he is obsessed with the Zhang family's daughter, which is a blessing and a curse for the Zhang Mansion.

Looking at his daughter's posture, Zhang Yantong frowned, he had the intention to stop it, but he didn't know where to start, he just sighed lightly, and was ready to reveal Chen Yuan's meaning to the emperor.

I only hope that the emperor will be broad-minded and not suppress Chen Yuan because of such trivial matters.

Chen Yuan, who returned to the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion, soon learned from the butler that the fourth prince, Sima Ke, and a white-clothed man with the surname Ouyang had come to visit.

Sima Ke intends to ascend to the throne of the crown prince, and at this time, he came to visit him to ask for help, but this guy with the surname Ouyang is a little interesting.

Among the people he knew, there were only a few people with the surname Ouyang, and this was not a big surname, and he almost didn't need the housekeeper to say anything more, so he guessed who it was.

Cheap son, Ouyang Zhi!

It's just that this time he ran into Sima Ke so coincidentally, which really made him feel a little weird, after all, the relationship between himself and them was really weird.

Nominally, they have all been to their hometown.

As for why it is nominally, it is naturally that Ouyang Zhi was not born to Mrs. Xu, but only raised the eldest sister's heir.

When Chen Yuan arrived in the lobby, Sima Ke and Ouyang Zhi were talking energetically, and they didn't notice it until he got closer, so he quickly got up and said with a smile:

"Brother Chen."

Ouyang Zhi looked at this cheap father who he hadn't seen for a long time, but his own power was different from that of the past, and his face was straight, and he bowed and said:

"Brother Chen, I haven't seen you for a long time."

With Sima Ke here, his title of 'father' is naturally to cover it up.

Chen Yuan nodded and slowly sat down:

"It's been a long time since I've seen it."

"Brother Chen, when you are in the future, you have already talked with Brother Ouyang a lot, and it is strange to say, although it is the first time I have met Brother Ouyang, but in my heart, there is a sense of closeness."

"Yes, yes, the child also feels strange, does Brother Chen know why?" Ouyang Zhi looked at Chen Yuan curiously and asked.

Hope to hear an answer.

Chen Yuan looked at the curious eyes of both of them, and laughed in his heart.

Can you not get close?

They're half-brothers.

There is no chance of peace, and it is all connected by the 'Tao'.

"Chen doesn't know about this, maybe the two of you are already in love." Chen Yuan smiled calmly.

"Brother Chen is right."

"You came this time, but Madame has a trust?" Chen Yuan then turned his gaze to Ouyang Zhi and asked.

"That's true, my mother is worried about Brother Chen, but she has a heavy responsibility, so it is not appropriate to leave Tangshan, and it just so happens that she also has a lot of yearning for the capital, so she took this errand to come, Brother Chen is not to blame."

"Is Tangshan okay?"

Ouyang Zhi glanced at Sima Ke silently, and slowly shook his head:

"Nothing is wrong, everything is safe, but a few adults and . Mother, I miss Brother Chen very much. ”

"Well, there will be a chance in the future."

Chen Yuan nodded.

As long as there is nothing to do, for him now, Tangshan's foundation is actually not so important, but after all, it is his dragon place, and he still has some feelings.

"Madame. Mother"

Listening to the brief conversation between Ouyang Zhi and Chen Yuan, Sima Ke was confused, but after thinking about it for a long time, a flash flashed in his eyes, and he understood who Ouyang Zhi was.

He had investigated some of Chen Yuan's past and knew that he had a foundation in Tangshan, and he also had a woman, Mrs. Xu, who was the first beauty in Shuzhou.

And Ouyang Zhi is the son of Mrs. Xu.

No wonder he was so close before.

It turned out that they were like-minded people.

Thinking of this, when Sima Ke looked at Ouyang Zhi again, he was already a little unnatural and felt uncomfortable, but surprisingly he couldn't hate this person.

He could only sigh secretly, guessing in his heart that in the whole world, there was only this person who was connected to his fate.

I just don't know if the good things between Chen Yuan and Mrs. Xu were caused by this person, if so, then they once thought of going together.

Thinking about it, Sima Ke couldn't help but feel a sense of crisis.

It is said that Mrs. Xu is as beautiful as a flower and is in her prime, and her mother's age is obviously older, if she competes for favor, it seems that she is still a little worse.

What can be taken is nothing more than the identity of the concubine.

Perhaps, only when the imperial sister marries into the Chen family and becomes the main wife, can he leap to the top and become Chen Yuan's most supportive. Well. Friend.

"Your Highness is here to make the crown prince, right?"

Chen Yuan finished talking with Ouyang Zhi, and immediately looked at Sima Ke.

"Brother Chen is like a god, yes, Ke is here for this matter, my father wants me to experience a period of time at the headquarters of the Sky Survey Division, and I also need Brother Chen's help, um. When she came, the mother also said that she would thank Brother Chen for his help another day. ”

As he spoke, he also glanced at Ouyang Zhi, and his eyes made Ouyang Zhi a little weird.

How is it a bit of a competition for favor?

It shouldn't be

Don't

Ouyang Zhi's thoughts were scattered, and he thought about his father Chen Yuan's mental fetish, and faintly had a bold guess, and immediately took a deep breath.

No way?!

No! No!

Ouyang Zhi immediately strangled this thought to death, he definitely thought too much.

No, even if it's true, you can't think about it anymore.

When he saw that the relationship between Ouyang Zhi and Chen Yuan was similar to him, he didn't hide it completely, and he couldn't guess the twists and turns inside anyway.

As everyone knows, even Ouyang Zhi, who likes things differently from ordinary people, already has faint suspicions.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing that Ouyang Zhi seemed to be a little wrong, Chen Yuan frowned.

"Nothing, nothing, just something that came to mind."

Ouyang Zhi hurriedly waved his hand.

Chen Yuan stared at him, and then replied to Sima Ke's words:

"Well, Chen will help you in this matter, and also say hello to the concubine for me."

The other party's thanks, he has already understood.

Verbal thanks are more than just verbal thanks.

"Thank you, Brother Chen."

Sima Ke smiled at the corner of his mouth, and his heart really found Chen Yuan's weakness.

The two of them clarified their intentions, and Chen Yuan chatted while letting people serve tea.

Sima Ke quietly mentioned to Chen Yuan what happened at the family banquet that day, and looked at Chen Yuan's thoughts, after all, when he heard about this before, he didn't react much, and even resisted a little.

But this time it was the emperor's intention, could it be that Chen Yuan still had to resist the decree?

But to his surprise, Chen Yuan's performance was still neither salty nor light, he was not ecstatic, nor did he frown to express his annoyance, which made him curious.

I couldn't figure out Chen Yuan's context at all.

In fact, Chen Yuan didn't want to talk to him about this matter, Zhang Yantong himself had already refused, and the emperor must know that it was useless to talk to Sima Ke no matter how much.

If Yang Guifei and Princess Pingyang could serve him together, he would naturally not refuse, but felt that it was a blessing for him to accumulate virtue and do good deeds in his life.

But after knowing Jingtai's thoughts about him, his thoughts about the mother and daughter Rabbit Fei were much weaker, and he would not risk his future.

If Jingtai really had been preparing to suppress him, then he would find a way to transfer him out of the capital immediately.

It's not interesting to be suppressed here.

After chatting for a while, Sima Ke offered to leave, while Ouyang Zhi stayed in the mansion to rest.

And after Sima Ke, an outsider, left, Ouyang Zhi no longer concealed it, and reported to Chen Yuan about the recent situation in Tangshan and the recent events in the south of Shuzhou.

At the same time, he also gave Chen Yuan a letter written by Mrs. Xu herself.

After Chen Yuan finished reading it, he just smiled.

The development of Tangshan is proceeding steadily, more and more Jianghu warriors are recruited, and the quality is getting higher and higher, and the first batch of xenomorph war horses from Liangzhou have also arrived in Tangshan.

Chen Yuan's power is expanding.

At the end of the letter, Mrs. Xu also expressed her lovesickness for Chen Yuan.

Overall, it's almost the same as the previous concubine.

It's night.

Imperial City, Imperial Study.

Jingtai sat on the dragon chair with gloomy eyes, his brows furrowed, just now, Zhang Yantong came to see him, and vaguely expressed Chen Yuan's resistance.

I don't want to marry Princess Pingyang, I hope to be able to take all the status and power by myself.

"Hmph, I don't know what's wrong!"

Jingtai's eyes showed a fierce light, staring at the board under him and wanted to smash it directly.

Chen Yuan was still the first person who dared to disobey his holy will, if it weren't for the fact that this person's talent was really rare, and he had the qualifications of a true monarch, and he would have been replaced by another person, he would have been furious and began to plan how to deal with this person.

But Chen Yuan was different from ordinary people after all, and his martial arts talent did make him appreciate it a little, and he felt that he had the qualifications to become a battle sword in the hands of the Sima Imperial Family.

And the prestige is high.

Maybe his current strength is not the top in the world, but his reputation is not lost, especially in the north, if he is suppressed for no reason, he will inevitably be criticized, and the majesty of the court will be further reduced.

When he was thinking about how to get Chen Yuan to agree to the marriage, Cao Zhengxian was also summoned, and when he saw Jingtai, he immediately bowed down and said:

"The old minister has seen Your Majesty."

"Hmm."

"I don't know why Your Majesty summoned the old minister?" Cao Zhengxian was a little suspicious.

"About Chen Yuan."

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the old minister has already asked people to prepare, and early tomorrow morning, someone in the palace will go to announce the decree and promote Chen Yuan to the Heavenly Survey Division."

This is what Zhi Zhan Tai handed over to him, although he is a little uncomfortable with Chen Yuan's superior Heavenly Survey Division Heavenly Character Divine Envoy, but he can only do things honestly.

Xiao Jing, the governor of the capital, and the three divine envoys of the earth, Xuan, and Huang, jointly played, asking the emperor to crown Chen Yuan as the heavenly character divine envoy, and made it clear that he was the most suitable person.

With such great power, even the emperor had to think carefully and give this position to Chen Yuan.

"There's no rush in this matter first."

Jingtai said with deep eyes.

"Huh? Your Majesty" Cao Zhengxian was stunned for a moment, it was clear that he was the emperor's edict, and he was ready to seal Chen Yuan as the envoy of the Heavenly Character, why is he not in a hurry now?

"Zhang Yantong just came here, and Chen Yuan doesn't want to marry Pingyang."

Jingtai said in a deep voice.

He really wanted to make Chen Yuan a Heavenly Character Divine Envoy before, and he could better cultivate him, but Zhang Yantong told him that Chen Yuan had no intention of marrying a wife.

Suddenly made his heart sink.

Be prepared to suppress this person's unruly personality first.

When to ask the emperor for marriage, and when, give him this seat again!

"What. This." Cao Zhengxian pondered for a long time when he heard this.

"Do you think Chen Yuan is really like this, or does he not want to have too much to do with the royal family?" Jingtai looked at him calmly and asked.

Looking at the emperor's eyes, Cao Zhengxian had the intention to add some material to Chen Yuan, but after thinking about it carefully, he still didn't put it into action, but said:

"The old minister thought that maybe there was a thorn in Chen Yuan's heart about Yang Hucheng before, after all, Princess Pingyang was born by the noble concubine, and they used to have some disagreements."

Jingtai frowned, also thinking of this.

"Hasn't he already settled his grievances with Ke'er?"

As far as he knew, Chen Yuan was basically now able to support Sima Ke's ascension to the throne, and there shouldn't be anything to worry about.

"The grievances of the Fourth Highness have been resolved, but the grievances between the four highnesses have not been resolved, I heard that the concubine Niangniang did not allow the four highnesses to enter the palace before, and reprimanded him, I think maybe it is because of this."

Jingtai's eyes flashed:

"What do you mean?"

"To solve the bell, you still need to tie the bell, Chen Yuan became famous at a young age, he is arrogant, and his personality has always been ruthless, I am afraid it will be difficult for him to bow his head first, it is better to let Niangniang go to Wu'an Hou Mansion and encourage one or two on behalf of His Majesty, maybe it can have a miraculous effect."

Cao Zhengxian said cautiously.

"Well, then let's do it first, what if Chen Yuan still doesn't know what to do?"

"Then Your Majesty will make an order at the court meeting, as long as Chen Yuan is still motivated and has greater power, he will not dare to refuse His Majesty's will."

Seeing the poor dagger, Cao Zhengxian didn't believe that Chen Yuan dared to refuse.

If he really doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, then he will be relegated to the state capital outside the capital to suppress it for a few more years, sharpen his temperament, and let him know that in the imperial court, the emperor is the sky.

No one as arrogant as him is allowed!

Jingtai squinted his eyes, looked at the somewhat dim sky outside, and said to the outside:

"Come on, summon Yang Guifei to come."

"The Heavenly Character God Envoy pressed it in advance, not in a hurry, so that this kid felt a little measured, hum."

Jingtai snorted coldly, a little unhappy with Chen Yuan's recklessness.

At this time, he followed him first, and waited until he made an oath to become one with the royal family, and he had his own way to control him.

"Your Majesty."

Cao Zhengxian immediately sent a sycophant.

After a while, Yang Guifei hurriedly came with a few maidservants, glanced up at the emperor, bowed and said:

"The concubine has seen Your Majesty."

Jingtai looked at Yang Huanyu and said in a deep voice:

"Love Concubine."

He told her the news that Chen Yuan was unwilling to get married, and revealed that it was her reason that made Chen Yuan feel guilty and ruined his plan to win over Chen Yuan.

"Your Majesty forgives you."

Yang Guifei was really a little scared at first, thinking that the emperor knew about her becoming friends with Chen Yuan, and she was uneasy in her heart, but now she has a bottom.

"I can't blame you for this, but I don't want Chen Yuan to refuse this marriage because of you, I have other plans, understand?"

"Concubines. Concubines"

"Later, you bring some things and go to the Wu'anhou Mansion to comfort Wu'anhou and try to resolve this grievance, um. Chen Yuan is a capable person, and he is also helpful to Ke'er. ”

Jingtai said lightly.

"It's the concubine who understands."

Although she had a crying face on her face, her heart was full of joy.

I was thinking about how to get out of the palace, but I didn't expect the emperor to give me a chance directly.

Her vitality has recovered, and it is time to rush.

"Don't rush back, it's best to convince this person to settle the grievance."

"Yes, the concubine will do her best."

Thank you all for your support!!!!
