Xiao Huai listened to Taishi Yang ask him which prince he belonged to, lowered his eyes and took a sip of the teacup, "I've always wondered why Taishi is standing with the fourth prince." ”

Taishi didn't expect him to ask himself this question so directly, and he was stunned for a moment before he said: "Now the only princes who can inherit the throne are the third prince and the fourth prince. Compared with the cowardly third prince, although the fourth prince is a little impulsive, it is much better. ”

Xiao Huai held a teacup in his hand, turned his head to look at the scenery outside the window, and a plum tree was standing tall in the cold wind. He suddenly remembered the first emperor, once the emperor pointed to a plum blossom in the palace and said to him: "It is easy to fight the country and defend the country, I hope that Daqian can be like this plum blossom, no matter what kind of predicament, can stand proudly, and the flowers are still blooming." ”

Turning around, he tilted his head and poured all the tea in the cup into his mouth, but the pain in his throat was still unbearable. Seeing the current court like this, looking at Li Chengyi's stubbornness, he even regretted it a little, when the emperor asked him if he wanted to succeed to the throne, he refused.

Although he has the memories of his previous life, he has lived here since he was a baby, and the first emperor gave him all the love of a father, and even when he said that he didn't want to be an emperor, the first emperor did not force him. At that time, the emperor knew that Li Chengyi would not be able to become a great weapon.

"Besides, behind the three princes, there is a queen and the Wu family." At this time, the Taishi said again.

He was very honest, and directly said that he planned to follow the dragon's work.

Xiao Huai put down the cup in his hand, leaned back on the back of the chair, looked at Master Yang lightly and said, "I don't stand on any prince, I only stand on the big front." Whoever wants to disturb the big cadres and cut off the big cadres is the enemy of me Xiao Huai. ”

He said this indifferently, but Taishi Yang saw the killing spirit from him, and his heart couldn't help but tighten, "They are all big cadres, and naturally they all focus on big cadres." ”

Xiao Huai hummed, then leisurely poured himself a cup of tea and tasted it carefully. I have to say that his wife is very good at business. This tea room is not only elegant, but the tea is also of the highest quality.

Taishi Yang also drank tea with a cup, looked at Xiao Huai in front of him, and found that he did not have the previous killing on him. Sighing in his heart, Xiao Huai's momentum was retracted freely, and he said:

"What is the court today, Dingguo Gong also understands it. The emperor's body seems to be not as tough as before, and it is necessary to establish a crown prince. But in comparison, the fourth prince is better than the third prince. And ....."

Yang Taishi hesitated for a moment, and then said: "If Ling Ai marries the fourth prince, he will definitely have a transcendent status in the future. ”

Xiao Huai raised his eyes to look at him, his eyes were cold, "I only heard this kind of thing once, and I don't want to hear it again next time." ”

"This ......."

Isn't the position of a queen attractive enough? What more could you want? Do you really want to rebel and become the emperor yourself? Yang Taishi even had an impulse to tell Xiao Huai that the risk of rebellion was too great, and he was not safe to be a strong relative. But he could only think about it in his heart.

At this point, it is useless to say anything else. The two chatted for a while, and Taishi Yang got up to say goodbye. When he got outside, he met Qi Er with a smile on his face, "Master Yang is fine." ”

Master Yang was stunned for a moment, looked at him and thought for a while, "Are you from Master Qi's family?" ”

Qi Er smiled and nodded, "Yes, I am in charge of some things in Huguang Pavilion, you can come and tell me in advance in the future, and I will arrange the best for you." ”

Everyone loves to listen to good words, and Taishi Yang's mood was originally depressed because of Xiao Huai's rejection, but at the moment, he lightened a lot, and there was a smile on his face, "Next time this official comes, I will tell you in advance." ”

"Okay." Qi Er continued to laugh, "The private room where you and Uncle Xiao had tea today is the best room in our Huguang Pavilion. The tea for you to drink, and the best tea. ”

Taishi Yang nodded with satisfaction, and then heard Qi Er say again: "Uncle Xiao said that you invited him to tea." ”

Yang Taishi hummed again, and Qi Er said again: "The cost is 153 taels of silver, I'll erase the change for you, 150 taels." ”

Master Yang: "........."

Why did you suddenly count the money? Besides, he drank two cups of tea, and it was 150 taels of silver, and the tea was more expensive than gold.

Although he knew that he was slaughtered, he could only suffer a dumb loss. took out 150 taels of silver tickets from his sleeve and handed them to Qi Er, and he walked away with a calm face. Qi Er looked at his unpleasant back, shrugged his shoulders, and then took the silver ticket to enter the account.

..........

Xiao Huai tasted tea for a while before getting up and going home. He didn't go to the study in the front yard, but went directly to Shi'an Yuan. When he arrived, Tang Shuyi was talking to Li Jingyi and Xiao Yuzhu, and stopped when he saw him coming.

Xiao Yuzhu got up and called Daddy, and Li Jingyi also got up and saluted him, "Master." ”

He is now practicing martial arts with Xiao Huai, and he also has the status of master and apprentice.

Xiao Huai waved his hand for them to sit, then sat down beside Tang Shuyi, and said, "Madame, go on." ”

Tang Shuyi saw that he didn't have anything important, so he looked at Li Jingyi and Xiao Yuzhu and continued: "The mean is not without principles, it means, first, doing things has its own principles and propositions, and it has not changed. This is the so-called neutrality, mediocrity is not easy to ......"

Li Jingyi was puzzled by the mean, he had asked Fang Daru before, but today he still came over to ask Tang Shuyi. Because he found that Tang Shuyi's views on the same thing were often different from others, but this difference seemed to be more reasonable.

Tang Shuyi finished talking about the golden mean she understood, and said: "The golden mean is easy to say, but it is very difficult to do. There's no need to be yourself, it's good to be able to do five or six of them. ”

Li Jingyi and Xiao Yuzhu both nodded, and Tang Shuyi said again: "Then the two of you can write down your experience." ”

Li Jingyi and Xiao Yuzhu picked up the pen and began to write seriously, Tang Shuyi looked at Xiao Huai and said, "Grandpa Guo, let's go talk elsewhere." ”

Xiao Huai got up and walked out with Tang Shuyi, and after the two left, Li Jingyi whispered to Xiao Yuzhu: "I found that Master listens to Mr. very much. ”

Master refers to Xiao Huai, and Mr. refers to Tang Shuyi.

"You found out too." Xiao Yuzhu approached him and lowered his voice: "But I think my father is quite happy." ”

Li Jingyi listened to her words, pursed her lips and wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything.

He felt that Master and Mr. got along very well like this.
