Fang Xu's mind moved, and he glanced at Fang Lan beside him, but fortunately, the latter was concentrating on prayer and did not raise his head.

Fang Xu breathed a sigh of relief, pinched the third incense, and continued to follow his sister's words, "Bother the four immortals to protect the Fang family and keep me safe." ”

When the words fell, the three incense sticks fell neatly in the incense pot, and Chen Po brought a lot of fruits and snacks and placed them on the offering table.

Fang Lan stood up, did not forget to pull up Fang Xu on the side, and commanded in a low voice, "Po Chen, just put these offerings on the table for an hour, and we will return to Beijing tomorrow, and we will take them away." ”

"The old slave understands." Chen Po had a kind face and said softly, "This is the blessing of the ancestors, and the young ladies take it home to share and eat, which can be regarded as receiving the love of the ancestors." ”

Fang Lan nodded, bent his arm and scolded Fang Xu, and said softly, "It's not early, hurry up and go to sleep, it's about to be Zhongyuan, don't come out more after dark." ”

When Fang Xu heard this, he hooked the corners of his lips and said in a low voice, "Sister, let's go to sleep first, I still have something I want to say to my father and mother." ”

Fang Lanquan thought that she missed her father, and she didn't stop it, but only advised, "Okay, you remember to go back earlier." ”

Fang Xu smiled and said softly, "Don't worry, my room is next to it." ”

Looking at the back of Fang Lan and Chen Po leaving one after the other, the smile on the corner of Fang Xu's mouth was slightly reduced, and he turned around and took out a wooden board from the beam behind the curtain, and carefully took it down.

Wiping away the light dust from the top, Fang Xu straightened his face and placed the tablet made of wood on the edge of the table.

His eyes fell on the lettering above, Fang Xu's eyes flowed, and he slowed down his voice, "As far as I am concerned, you are not a piece of paper, but a flesh-and-blood life, and I have replaced you, only then do I know that it is not easy for you, and I will take over your life in the future, you don't have to worry about it." ”

After that, Fang Xu's fingertips moved slightly, touched his heart, and said softly, "I once blamed you for having dusty eyes and not being able to recognize the pearl, but after thinking about it, you are the only victim in this false mother-son friendship." ”

"When Xie Changqing and Xie Shu'er passed away, my heart ached unbearably, and I knew that it was your emotion." Fang Xu's eyes were a little hot, and he said in a low voice, "I set up a card for you, just thinking that you can let go of the obsession in your heart, suffer a lot in this life, and be happy in the next life." ”

Fang Xu's voice was a little hoarse, and he couldn't hold back the sourness in his heart, as if he was saying goodbye to his friend for many years, and muttered in a low voice, "Goodbye, Fang Xu." ”

As the words fell, a peach on the table suddenly fell, rolled on the ground, and stopped at the edge of her skirt.

Seeing this, Fang Xu raised the corners of his mouth, raised his hand to pick up the peach, and said softly, "This is what you left me." ”

After saying that, Fang Xu Shi Ran got up, pushed the door and walked out.

I don't know if it's Fang Xu's illusion, as soon as she stepped out of the door, the originally cold and biting cold wind suddenly softened, and the cold winter was like early spring.

Fang Xu exhaled a breath of turbidity, a trace of crystal flashed in his eyes, and he took a step into the night.

Following

The carriage drove away leisurely, heading in the direction of the capital.

The Fang family's old house was quiet again, and Chen Po grabbed a feather duster and began to repeat her life again.

Stepping into the ancestral hall, Chen Po's body suddenly froze, with a blank expression, "Isn't there only eleven tablets...... Where did the twelfth come from? ”

Chen Po raised her feet and walked over, looking at the tablet on the very edge, and there were two sentences on it that caught her attention.

"There is no ending to the supporting characters."

"Forgetting is death, and I will always remember you."

Chen Po's brows relaxed, and the corners of her mouth rose, "This is quite interesting, it's okay, just put it here, it's also appropriate." ”

The Temple of Nourishing the Heart

Outside the main hall, many people stood in a crowd.

Yuan Chen's face was solemn, and his eyes looked straight at the man opposite.

The man was dressed in an official robe, with a lazy expression, and looked around with a smile.

Yuan Chen's eyes darkened, and he grabbed the wat board with his fingertips until it turned white, and Shen Ji's voice unconsciously sounded in his mind.

"Lang Jun, Cui Shangshu has no backer behind him, Sui Yin's identity can't be found out for the time being, I think there is a bigger backer behind him to protect him."

"The minister has secretly arranged the manpower, Lang Jun just waits, and he can retreat in this incident without being in the limelight."

Yuan Chen came back to his senses, looked at Sui Yin not far away, his face was a little uneasy, and he whispered, "Jianghu Warlock, you can't get on the table!" ”

Xu was aware of something, Sui Yin turned his head sharply, looked at him, his lips raised, and his smile was suspicious.

Seeing his strange expression, Yuan Chen's heart jumped, and a cold sweat broke out in an instant.

At this time, Xie Li walked slowly to his side and said in a deep voice, "Lang Jun is steady, just a liar." ”

Yuan Chen swallowed his saliva and muttered, "What do I think...... He's like a human and a ghost? ”

"Zi is silent, and the strange force is confused." Xie Li's eyebrows were lowered, and his voice was low, "Lord Shen asked me to bring you a message, everything is arranged, just wait for the play to begin." ”

Yuan Chen snorted softly, forcing himself not to think about that terrifying smile.

The bell rang, and Zhang De's chubby body stepped out of the Heart Nourishing Palace, holding the dust, and cleared his throat, "The emperor's dictation-"

For a while, everyone knelt down in unison, and there was silence all around, and the needles could be heard.

Zhang De's eyes crossed a trace of helplessness, and he raised his voice, "Sui Aiqing often observes feng shui luck, and he writes a letter, saying that there is imperial luck in the palace, and the person who is really a dragon is very happy, and Sui Aiqing is specially ordered to find this person as a prince." ”

Hearing this, there was a gasp from the crowd.

No one expected that the position of the prince would be sloppily allowed out.

Several princes had different complexions, but Yuan Chen, who had no expression on his face, was extremely calm.

Zhang De pursed his mouth, looked at Sui Yin in the audience with some displeasure, and said in a low voice, "Lord Sui, please." ”

Sui Yin nodded politely, his eyes swept over the several princes present, and suddenly his eyes closed, and he began to dance on the high platform, muttering something in his mouth, and the others who looked at it looked inexplicable.

"Pretending to be a ghost!" Yuan Chen scolded secretly, his face impatient, "It's really ...... to let such a miscellaneous person decide the position of the prince."

Yuan Chen moved his mouth, but he really didn't dare to scold.

"Lang Jun, don't be impatient." Xie Li's eyes were slightly dark, and he whispered comfortingly, "Everyone knows what the emperor has in mind, and he is relieved in his words, but he may be angry in his heart." ”

"Lang Jun, look." Xie Li looked around and said in a deep voice, "Which of these princes is particularly positive?" ”

When Yuan Chen heard this, he looked around and saw several brothers all looking like vegetables, as if they were afraid of being chosen.

It seems that he is not the only one who is wary of his father.

On the high platform, Sui Yin, who had been talking to himself like crazy, suddenly stopped, pointed with his big hand, and raised his voice, "It's calculated, the real son of heaven is - him!" ”

Everyone looked at his fingertips and saw the four princes in the audience. (End of chapter)
