"Do you want this?" Lin Zaifeng helped Su Zili pick a hairpin, and asked casually when he picked up a peach-colored hairpin.

"This color is too ugly, look at that," Su Zili picked up the begonia hairpin on the other side: "This color scheme is novel." ”

"This hairpin...... It's a good match for you," Lin Zaifeng smiled: "Do you like begonias?"

"It's okay," Su Zili picked up the hairpin and said suddenly, "This hairpin...... It seems to remind me of someone. ”

"Who, boss, I want this," Lin Zaifeng paid for Su Zili, and the two walked together.

"It's Zeng Motang, the sister of the criminal minister Zeng Yiren," Su Zili whispered: "I was fortunate enough to meet her, she was really a wonderful woman." ”

"Oh?" Lin Zaifeng raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "How can anyone be more unique than you." ”

"How can I say it," Su Zili didn't pay attention to Lin Zaifeng's tricks: "Her natural elegance and innocence are mixed together, and when I laugh, I feel that my heart doesn't belong to me anymore." ”

"It's really a pity for Zeng Guiren," Lin Zaifeng sighed: "The Son of Heaven is unkind, and he always knows the pity when the song is over." ”

"Zili is brave, I want to know if the prince has also coveted the throne?" Su Zili suddenly said coldly.

"No," almost without thinking, Lin Zaifeng replied without hesitation: "From the moment I became the king of Anping, I just wanted to live a happy and peaceful life; My father and my uncles died on the throne, and I didn't want to touch them from the beginning. ”

"What is peace and happiness in the heart of the prince?"

"Marry the woman you love, have a healthy child, and," Lin Zaifeng looked at seriously: "You can protect the person you love and protect the family." ”

"The prince's happiness is not simple," Su Zili said with a smile: "But the prince was born in the royal family, and it seems that it is easy to achieve such a wish." ”

"No," Lin Zaifeng shook his head with a wry smile: "Even if it's so simple, I can't seem to fully do it now." ”

"Let's talk about something happy," Su Zili looked at the melancholy Lin Zaifeng, and said with a smile: "Today is my birthday!"

"Speaking of which, the time is coming," Lin Zaifeng suddenly pulled Su Zili up: "Go, come with me." ”

"Where are you going?" Su Zili let Lin Zaifeng pull him up a small hill, where could he see the stars in the sky......

"When I was a child, I thought that this was the closest place to the stars," Lin Zaifeng looked at Su Zili who was amazed and smiled: "You look north!"

Su Zili turned her head and suddenly saw gorgeous fireworks blooming in the air, merging with the stars in the sky.

"Wow! Fireworks!" Su Zili looked at Lin Zaifeng happily: "Lord Wang, how can there be fireworks?"

The country of early cold has a clear rule that fireworks are not allowed except during the New Year's holidays.

"I asked the emperor to come," Lin Zaifeng smiled: "It's still a little good to be a prince, go." ”

As soon as the fireworks were over, Lin Zaifeng led Su Zili all the way to the north, and not far away was a small stream, sparkling in the moonlight.

"Lord Wang, you're here, hurry up!" Jin Chen seemed to have been waiting for a long time, and handed Lin Zaifeng a firefly covered in glass: "This thing is not easy to catch!"

"It's so beautiful," Su Zili was a little speechless with emotion: "Thank you...... Lin Zaifeng. ”

When Lin Zaifeng heard this, he suddenly paused, and hurriedly scratched his head: "No...... Nothing ......."

"Hahaha, you're too pure, aren't you?" Jin Chen laughed on the side, he looked at the shy two, and said jokingly: "Alas, pure is good, it's quite a match." ”

The three of them walked back to Liuli Pavilion together, with Jin Chen there, there was less embarrassment in the atmosphere, and the three of them talked and laughed to send Su Zili back. Su Zili looked at Lin Zaifeng, and in addition to being moved, she also gave birth to some feelings beyond friendship.

Lin Zaifeng just thanked Jin Chen, and after Meng Xiu left in style with a sentence of "Brother believes in you", Lin Zaifeng's heart collapsed - brother, I can't do it! Fortunately, Jin Chen gave him advice, so he barely had some ideas.

After Su Zili went back, she put the glass cover full of fireflies on the dresser and looked at it for a long time, revealing a shy smile.

"Miss will have a good dream tonight," Momokin said with a smile, "After Miss, it will get better and better." ”

"No wonder they say that you have a sweet mouth," Su Zili looked at the hairpin but sighed: "It's just that the friendship between men and women is still a mirror...... You see, the emperor favored Zeng Guiren and was promoted to Concubine Xuan in less than a year; But now that he has taken away his title, he is no longer favored. You said that the royal family was unkind, and when I was with Nie Xiuhe, he was just a slave, but he still couldn't withstand the rights......"

"Miss always thinks too much," Tao Xin knew that Su Zili had not completely let go of Nie Xiuhe, and hurriedly comforted: "Nie Xiuhe is not affectionate, because he has been a slave since he was a child, and it is inevitable that slaves will be bullied too much; The emperor is affectionate because he has too much power, and he favors a person more because of her family background. But King Anping is different, he has waited for Miss for so long, how can he hurt Miss?"

"Maybe ......" Su Zili held her forehead: "I'll think about it again." ”

Taoxin saw that Su Zili was really tired, so she didn't say anything more, and retreated silently.

Su Zili looked at the can of fireflies and involuntarily lost her mind...... Maybe it's not just that they haven't let go, but more importantly, they still have hope.

An Zhongning and Nangong Yu Heng nominally solved the case of the assassination of the county lord of Tingxue and the murder of Yuan Yunyang, and Meng Xiu proposed to the emperor that An Zhongning of Jin was the servant of the household department, and Yu Heng of Nangong of Jin was the left deputy imperial envoy.

Nangong Yu Heng thanked Meng Xiu after receiving the order, Meng Xiu looked at the high-spirited young man and just smiled and shook his head: "This is not just helping you, the official wants you to remember this feeling, this is also helping the official himself." ”

"Yes, Xiaguan understands," Nangong Yu Heng replied obediently: "The kindness of the adults, Xiaguan is unforgettable." ”

"It's not just your power," Meng Xiu said to Nangong Yu Heng: "It's what you got for the Nangong family, keep it well." ”

"Xia Guan understands. ”

Meng Xiu nodded, but didn't say anything more, in fact, he didn't like Nangong Yu Heng very much.

He felt that Nangong Yu Heng was a little stupid in doing things, and he was also stupid in life. After several conversations with Lu Lizhi, he was full of praise for him: smart, upright, in fact, the most important thing is smart. People who are not smart should not stay with themselves.

Meng Xiu helped him rather than help the Nangong family - he needed a strong shield, and his Meng family was far from enough.

The queen and the Nangong family naturally understood, but the queen was nothing and couldn't help. Meng Xiu didn't care, what he needed was the final blow.

Nie Xiuhe, or Lin Xiuhe, begged to marry the daughter of the minister of the court everywhere but was repeatedly rejected, and in the end, he married Xie Xueyan, the youngest daughter of Xie Yin, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites.

Meng Xiu and everyone just watched it as a joke - Xie Xueyan was famous for her ugliness, and because of her physical disability, she was a waste person who couldn't get married.

But Nie Xiuhe didn't care, he not only married, but also invited all the officials to come, and some people had to give Xie Yin a face and had to go to the banquet.

Xie Yin's direct boss Meng Xiu didn't give him this face, and directly called him sick. But An Zhongning, who had just taken office, and Lu Lizhi, who was also a waiter, were not so good, and the two of them were happy when they walked together.

It's just surprising that Lin Zaifeng also went, which can be regarded as fulfilling the original master-servant relationship.

After three rounds of drinking, Lin Zaifeng invited An Zhongning and Lu Lizhi to his palace for a talk, and the two happily went.

"Actually, this king has always had one thing to ask for," Lin Zaifeng looked at the two waiters and sighed: "I wonder if you two can help?"

"The prince doesn't have to be polite, please speak," Lu Lizhi hurriedly replied.

"At the beginning, my father bought six girls and three boys, and among these three boys, one was Fang Qian, that is, Zeng Yiren's younger brother, who I have always regarded as Nie Xiuhe; One is Liang Shangjun, the personal guard of the county lord, who has been practicing martial arts all year round and is dumbfounded; There is another one, which was sent to Nanxi ......" Lin Zaifeng suddenly became serious: "Don't let Meng Xiu know about this matter, there will definitely be a move when he interferes with the emperor." Can you two find out the whereabouts of this man for this king?"

"But...... Where does this start?" An Zhongning was a little distressed.

"Five years ago, he was sent to Nanxi," Lin Zaifeng thought for a while: "Also, he ...... There seems to be something different from ordinary people. ”

"Different from ordinary people?"

"Hmm...... This is also the reason why he was sent away, he said...... 'I can see a human form other than a person in my right eye,' which is strange and scary. ”

"Why did the prince suddenly want to find this person?" Lu Lizhi asked puzzled.

"Because since I saw Jin Chen, I seem to be able to believe what he said," Lin Zaifeng sighed: "It's not a secret, Jin Chen looks no different, but when I think about it, it's really different from ordinary people...... He was sometimes light and could jump freely from tree to tree; Sometimes it is so powerful that you can break the wooden chair with your bare hands...... The king trusts him, but he has to be on guard. ”

"The prince is looking for this person to come back just to beware of Jin Chen?"

"It's not ......" Lin Zaifeng paused and said slowly: "This king, I want to have a guarantee to stop Yunle." Yun Le didn't know that he existed, maybe this person was the only way. ”

An Zhongning and Lu Lizhi looked at each other and smiled after hearing this, and replied in unison: "The minister will do his best to find this person for the prince!"

"Thank you......" Lin Zaifeng took the last sip of wine, a little moved in his heart, but more still sad......

He longed for real peace all his life, but when he watched his sister marry someone he didn't love and listened to her say things like that...... He felt that he should not be "peaceful" any longer.

What the county lord of Tingxue didn't finish in the end, Lin Zaifeng had actually guessed it...... She wanted him to win over her.

"Yunle," Lin Zaifeng clenched his wine glass: "Brother won't let you go that far!"
