Since sending Jin Xiaopang home alone that day, Jin Yang followed Sheng Zixuan's master and servant along the way, and walked for nearly three months before he came to the imperial capital of the Qin Imperial State.

"After three years of leaving, there have been few major changes, and those few people are still guarding the door. I remember that the missing half of the tooth seemed to be called Liu Laoshi, and when he was about to enter the city, he saw a big chaos in the crowd in the city gate. As soon as he put the master and servant behind him, he saw a team of cavalry escorting a gorgeous carriage speeding by, Jin Yang turned his head and asked a middle-aged man next to him: "Uncle, whose carriage is this past?

The middle-aged man looked at Jin Yang and whispered, "Be quiet, young man, this is your first time coming to the imperial capital." Without waiting for Jin Yang to reply, Sheng Zixuan next to him said, "Yes, uncle, we are from the Tai'an Empire." ”

After listening to Sheng Zixuan's words, the middle-aged man said with a really such expression: "Let me tell you, what has just passed is the carriage of the four princes of the current dynasty, these four princes are the most powerful of the many princes, and they rely on themselves to be favored by the Qin Emperor on weekdays, and even the eldest prince is not very concerned." I heard that a big man will come to the imperial capital in the next few days, so the princes will go to the welcome pavilion ten miles away at this hour every day to wait, you must keep in mind that no one dares to offend the four princes if you offend in the imperial capital. ”

As he spoke, several more teams of chariots and horses drove out of the city one after another, but they were barely neat, and they did not fly as high as just now. Suddenly, Sheng Zixuan stabbed Jin Yang and whispered with a little excitement: "Look, that's my uncle, his name is Li Zheng, and he is now the confidant of the eldest prince." ”

Jin Yang looked in the direction of Sheng Zixuan's finger and saw an elegant-looking middle-aged man sitting on a horse next to the carriage of the eldest prince. After thinking for a while, Jin Yang said to Sheng Zixuan: "After entering the city in a while, you will go to your aunt, I will find an inn to live in first." ”

Sheng Zixuan shook his head and said, "You go to my aunt's house with me, we are fair and honest friends, and there is nothing unpleasant." Seeing Sheng Zixuan's resolute attitude, Jin Yang nodded and said, okay!

After several inquiries, the three finally found Sheng Zixuan's aunt's home in an alley. To Sheng Zixuan's surprise, there was no imagined Gaomen compound, only a small courtyard. There were no groups of maid ring servants, only an aunt's maid ring and a small servant.

Looking at her aunt Sheng Xiuying, who was dressed plainly in front of her, Sheng Zixuan's eyes immediately turned red, and she didn't expect her aunt to live so hard.

However, Aunt Sheng smiled and told Sheng Zixuan that although she was a little harder, she was really happy. It was when Sheng Zixuan introduced to his aunt that this was his friend Jin Yang, and almost frightened Aunt Sheng.

Knowing that it was just a coincidence of names and not the second youth of the Jin family, Aunt Sheng became natural, which shows that Jin Yang's reputation is really stinky.

Just when Aunt Sheng was preparing dinner with Yahuan, Sheng Zixuan's cousin Sheng Ding came back from school, this is a down-to-earth and steady child who makes people feel good at first sight.

The four dishes and one soup on the dining table, although it is not very rich, but it shows the sincerity of the host's family, pointing to the food on the table, Aunt Sheng smiled and said: "Your uncle has been busy recently, it is estimated that it will be late at night when he comes back, let's eat!" In fact, the monks after the Jindan period don't need to eat this ordinary food anymore, but Jin Yang and Sheng Zixuan still eat very sweet.

After the meal, when Jin Yang proposed to go to the guest house, Sheng Zixuan resolutely disagreed, and Aunt Sheng also said: "How can there be a reason to let the guests go to the guest house, but there are few small rooms in the courtyard, so you can only wronged the guests and Sheng Ding to live in the same room." Speaking of this, Jin Yang had no choice but to agree happily.

After a while, when I was listening to Sheng Zixuan's eyebrows dancing about the new things along the way, my uncle Li Zheng came back, looking at Li Zheng with a sad face, Aunt Sheng hurriedly asked what happened.

Looking at Li Zheng, who wanted to speak and stopped, Jin Yang hurriedly got up and prepared to say goodbye and go back to the room, but Li Zheng said: "It's okay, you can sit down, since you are Zixuan's good friend, there is nothing to hide from you." ”

It turned out that the emperor had recently come to a big man, and this big man's influence on the Qin Emperor was extraordinary. If any prince can get his support, then the succession to the throne will be a sure thing. During this time, all the princes showed their skills and wanted to leave a good impression on this big man.

Although the eldest prince also hopes to get the support of this big man, he is not willing to use sycophancy to achieve his goals. If the eldest prince does not get the support of this big man this time, then he, who was originally suppressed by the four princes, will completely lose his last chance to compete for the throne.

According to the conduct of the four princes, once they succeed in ascending the throne, a major purge will be launched. At that time, not only will several princes, including the eldest prince, be unlucky, but the subordinates who follow them will definitely be affected, especially Li Zheng, who is the confidant of the eldest prince, will inevitably be purged.

Speaking of this, Li Zheng looked up at his wife, and then said to Sheng Zixuan: "As a guest of the eldest prince, it is a matter of course for me to be loyal to the Lord, but my wife and children are innocent, so if that day comes, I think you will take your aunt and younger brother back to the Sheng family of the Tai'an Empire, and I think that the four princes will not offend the Tai'an Sheng family in order to hunt down and kill two women and children." (Because she has not been in contact with her parents' family for a long time, Aunt Sheng still doesn't know that Sheng Zixuan escaped from marriage)

After listening to her husband quietly, Aunt Sheng on the side smiled indifferently and said: "Husband, since I married you, our husband and wife have never been separated, you and I are husband and wife, life is the same life, death is the same death, just let Zixuan take Sheng Ding away, you don't have to persuade me, I have made up my mind." ”

Looking at his resolute wife, Li Zheng sighed and said: "If you have a wife like this, what more can your husband ask for! Well, if that day really comes, our husband and wife will go to trouble together." ”

"Dad, mother, I'm not leaving, I want to be with you. Sheng Ding also said with tears in his eyes.

Looking at the family hugging each other tightly, Sheng Zixuan's heart was sour for a while, and she rubbed her red eyes and said, "Uncle, don't think about things so badly first, maybe there will be a turnaround." After talking for a long time, you haven't told us which big man is coming to the imperial capital!"

Li Zheng turned around and sat down slowly, and said with a look of admiration: "The big man I just talked about is Zhou Dazhi, the head of the Zhou family who is famous all over the mainland. ”

"Ah! is that Zhou Dazhi, who is alone and helps the Jin family fight against the twenty-six Yuanying masters of the Twelve Sects?" Sheng Zixuan asked in surprise. "Yes, it is the same Zhou Dazhi who is young but full of iron bones!" Li Zheng clenched his fists and said excitedly.

When Li Zheng's passion burned everyone in the room, no one had the time to notice that Jin Yang in the corner was shaking his head and smiling bitterly.

Walking on the most prosperous street in the imperial capital, Jin Yang looked at the dark circles in his eyes beside him, full of haggard Sheng Zixuan's heart for no reason. Just as he was distracted, he felt that a runaway carriage was crashing towards him in the distance, and he was about to act, when he saw Sheng Zixuan flash in a hurry, stopped in front of him, and grabbed the reins of the horse.

After watching the coachman go away with a thousand thanks, Sheng Zixuan smiled at Jin Yang with a slight smug smile and said, "If you don't have me, what can you do, don't worry! ”

Sheng Zixuan's words completely melted Jin Yang, Jin Yang, who originally didn't plan to participate in the battle for the succession of the princes, lowered his head and thought for a while and said to Sheng Zixuan: "Zixuan, don't worry about your uncle's affairs, maybe I can help a little." As he spoke, he reached into his arms, took out a small porcelain vase and handed it to Sheng Zixuan.

"What is this?" Sheng Zixuan asked. "This thing was given to me by my master, he was kind to the Zhou family in his early years, Zhou Dazhi will definitely recognize this small porcelain vase, but you can't tell anyone that I gave it to you, otherwise, it will bring me and you a lot of trouble. ”

Sheng Zixuan said curiously: "Are you afraid that an enemy will find you based on this bottle? Don't worry! I told my uncle that a good friend of mine gave it to me, but does this little bottle really work?"

Jin Yang looked at Sheng Zixuan, who replied heartily, and said, "It will work, I promise!" It's just that I suddenly have something to do and want to leave for a few days, you can rest assured that I will come back to you immediately after I finish my work." ”

Sheng Zixuan said in surprise: "Is it very important, why don't you wait a few days and I'll accompany you." Jin Yang gently patted Sheng Zixuan's shoulder and said, "It's my master who explained that after I came to the imperial capital, I went to meet a senior, who had a strange personality and didn't like outsiders to disturb, so I just went alone." ”

"Oh, well, remember to come to me as soon as you're done!" Sheng Zixuan said with a little attachment.

Sheng Zixuan returned to her aunt's house alone with melancholy, and when Aunt Sheng saw that she was back alone, she asked, "Where did your friend go, why didn't he come back with you?" Sheng Zixuan said listlessly to her aunt: "He said that he was going to visit a friend of his master, and he would not be back in a few days." ”

Aunt Sheng is a person who has come over, how can she not see her niece's thoughts, so she stepped forward and comforted: "Don't worry, he will be back soon, you go to wash first, we are ready to eat, and you should be hungry after a day." ”

Today, Uncle Li Zheng came back very early, but his face was more sad, Sheng Zixuan couldn't help asking: "Uncle, is the situation very bad?" Li Zheng sighed and said: "The head of the Zhou family arrived today, and he lived in the old mansion before, but he didn't see anyone, I waited at the door with the eldest prince for an afternoon, and the door didn't go in, seeing that it was getting dark, I had to come back first, and I was going to wait for the opportunity tomorrow." ”

Sheng Zixuan thought for a while and said, "Uncle, I suddenly remembered today that a friend of mine gave me something a while ago, saying that it was given to him by the head of the Zhou family, so why don't you take this thing tomorrow and see if you can see Zhou Dazhi." As he spoke, he handed the small porcelain vase to Li Zheng.

Li Zheng took it and looked at it, it was just an ordinary small porcelain vase, and he couldn't help but be a little disappointed, but he still smiled and said, "Thank you Zixuan, I'll try it tomorrow." ”
