"I don't know what Cui Shangshu is thinking about." Shen Ji lowered his eyebrows slightly, pinching the fingertips of the sunspot and moving slightly, "But this Sui is ...... I guess it's still useful. ”

"Usefulness?" Yuan Chen raised his eyebrows, a trace of inexplicability flashed in his eyes, "It's just a charlatan, what's the use?" ”

Shen Ji didn't raise his head, his eyes were as black as ink, staring at the chess game in front of him, "The court is changing rapidly, Lang Jun should know how to worry." ”

Yuan Chen paused, and the meaning of inquiry slipped through his eyes, "What does Lord Shen mean...... Tell me to borrow Sui Yin's hand and get rid of the opponent? ”

One word falls, and the winner is decided.

Shen Ji curled the corners of his lips slightly, ignoring Lu Qingfeng's somewhat frustrated expression on the other side, turned his head to look at Yuan Chen, and pointed out, "The spies have come to report, the eldest prince has been moving a lot recently, and although the fief is far away, it can't stop his wolf ambitions." ”

"Cui Shangshu's intentions are unknown, Lang Jun wants to find someone to investigate, if he really doesn't stand in line with other princes, then he is coming to the emperor."

Yuan Chen lowered his eyes to hide the emotions at the bottom of his eyes," Master Shen continued. ”

Shen Ji hooked his lips, and the eyebrows and eyes were very cold, "Since it is to attract attention in front of the emperor, then why don't we help him......"

After the words fell, Shen Ji raised his hand and picked up the tongs leaning on the table, picked up a piece of broken charcoal and threw it into the brazier, and said lightly, "Let the fire burn more vigorously." ”

"But ......" Yuan Chen hesitated and said in a deep voice, "They are my brothers after all, so isn't it ......?"

"Lang Jun."

Shen Ji interrupted his words when he opened his mouth, and Yuan Chen was stunned and raised his head in a trance.

Shen Ji sat on a wooden bench, his hands hanging on his knees, his appearance was noble, but his eyes were cold and scary.

"Do you remember what Lang Jun said when he persuaded his ministers to surrender?" Shen Ji tightened his lips and said softly, "Lang Jun is ambitious, and the minister believes in it, and then he follows." ”

"The opportunity is rare now, does Lang Jun really want to miss that son for the sake of that idea?"

Shen Ji's words were like a long sword, stabbing into Yuan Chen's heart, making him give face.

"Lang Jun thinks twice." Lu Qingfeng also restrained his thoughts, his expression was serious, "Lord Shen is straightforward, although his words are straightforward, but he is to the point, throughout the ages, the road of the prince has always been full of thorns, if you don't swing your sword to cut it, when the stab grows crazy, you will hurt yourself!" ”

Yuan Chen took a deep breath, only to feel that his scalp was numb, and called in a low voice, "Xie Li......"

When Xie Li heard him call his name, his expression moved slightly, leaving only one sentence, "Lang Jun, the overall situation is important, and you must not be indecisive." ”

Yuan Chen lowered his head, looking a little lonely, a pair of slender eyes stared at the tea in front of him, silent.

"As the saying goes, the most ruthless emperor is the family." Shen Ji raised his hand, pinched the teapot with his slender fingers, poured himself a cup of tea, and said in a low voice, "Lang Jun is so embarrassed, why don't you want to think about whether they will take into account the feelings of brotherhood if they change to other princes?" ”

Yuan Chen pondered for a moment, and left a sentence lightly, "Lord Shen, I will leave the matter of Cui Shangshu to you." ”

After a cup of tea, Shen Ji and Lu Qingfeng left together, leaving only Yuan Chen and Xie Li in the house.

Yuan Chen's face was pale, and he was not very interested when he looked at it, "Xie Li... I didn't want to ...... like that."

Xie Li paused to drink tea, raised his eyes to look at him, and said quietly, "Lang Jun did nothing wrong." ”

Yuan Chen's expression was a little dazed, and he muttered, "This son, why can't he be a sage?" Whoever has the ability can take over, so you don't have to sacrifice so many lives......"

When Xie Li heard this, he pulled the corners of his mouth, and there seemed to be a smile on his face, "Desire, Lang Jun doesn't have to mind." ”

Yuan Chen took a sip of strong tea and said lightly, "The eldest brother once taught me to bow and play the piano when I was a child, but it's a pity...... We've all changed. ”

"Sentimentality is not for Lang Jun." Xie Li raised his hand and pressed the big on his body, and said in a deep voice, "The minister still thinks that the noble and arrogant Lang Jun from before is more pleasing to the eye. ”

Yuan Chen smiled bitterly, held the corner of his forehead, and looked at him with interest, "Lord Shen and Brother Lu have a long-term vision, I just think that they are quite old, so they know a lot of truths. ”

"But you, the same age as me, are plotting to kill your siblings, why can you be so calm?" Yuan Chen raised his eyebrows, "That's the family who gets along with us day and night, can you really go with it?" ”

Xie Li smiled, a dark color slipped under his eyes, "Lang Jun said that he laughed, if the minister is kind-hearted, I am afraid that the position of the prince will not fall to the minister after a hundred years." ”

His openness made Yuan Chen lose his mind for a moment, looked at Xie Li's eyes as deep as a deep pool, and silently closed his mouth.

For a moment, there was only the sound of tables clashing in the room.

Qingling Fang family

"You say she's Granny Miaoxuan?" Fang Lan's eyes widened, and he looked at his sister in disbelief.

In her shocked eyes, Fang Xu nodded slowly.

Fang Lan looked sideways, looked at Miao Xuan, his eyes were full of suspicion, and he muttered in a low voice, "Didn't you bring back a charlatan?" ”

"Not bad." Fang Xu smiled helplessly and said in a low voice, "I have asked carefully about the things of many years ago, and they are all right." ”

Hearing this, Fang Lan breathed a sigh of relief, but he still said with some disapproval, "What are you going to do when you bring people back?" Shouldn't you also learn from those powerful people and raise a scholar at home? ”

Fang Xu wanted to explain, but after thinking about it, he responded, "Why not?" ”

Fang Lan frowned, "Take her to the capital?" Living in Houfu? ”

Fang Xu blinked and repeated, "Why not?" ”

Fang Lan was speechless for a while, glared at Fang Xu, then looked at Chen Po on the side, and said loudly, "Chen Po, pack up the house and come out." ”

My sister remembered that one was one play, and she couldn't beat it, and she couldn't lose it, so she had to pet it.

"Huh!" Chen Po responded, and hurriedly beckoned to Miao Xuan, with a gentle smile, "Old sister, you come with me." ”

Miao Xuan nodded politely and walked in her direction with her feet raised.

night

The Fang sisters changed into decent clothes, took off the ornaments on their heads, and came to the hall together.

There were many white candles burning in the room, and there were more than a dozen tablets on the long table, and the cool breeze blew, and the people who looked at it were terrified.

Fang Lan walked to the house and knelt down in front of the futon on the left.

Fang Xu followed her example and knelt beside her.

There were three incense sticks in front of them, and the Fang sisters raised their hands to pinch one and shouted in unison, "Approaching Zhongyuan, the descendants of the Fang family have come to support their clan relatives and set up an incense banquet to thank their ancestors for their kindness." ”

One incense falls, and two incense rises.

"Father, mother, my daughter is here to fulfill her filial piety, please bless the whole family, everything goes well."

Fang Xu pinched the second stick of incense and gently inserted it into the incense pot.

I don't know if it's because the window wasn't closed properly, Fang Xu put the second incense into the basin, just as the cold wind blew, and the burning spark lit up strangely for a moment.
