I have an altar of luck

Sima Ke kept nodding his head, secretly admiring Chen Yuan's method, he was able to keep so close to people who had never met a few times, and he still needed to learn a lot from him.

After Ouyang Zhi finished speaking, he did not remain silent. Seeing that the prince had no airs, he began to ask about his relationship with Chen Yuan.

Sima Ke laughed, and said without hesitation that they had had some enemies before, but neither of them took it to heart, and gradually turned enemies into friends.

As for how to transform the enemy, he naturally couldn't elaborate.

Later, Sima Ke also revealed that his own sister from the same origin is the current eldest princess, and one of the protagonists in the capital who may marry Chen Yuan.

Immediately, Ouyang Zhi was startled, and secretly speculated.

After saying this, Sima Ke was still not satisfied, and began to talk about a series of major events that Chen Yuan had done in the capital with great interest. Except for the matter of hiding and abolishing the emperor's family and relatives, he said everything else.

Ouyang Zhi couldn't help admiring Chen Yuan even more.

He secretly said, what his mother said was indeed correct, Chen Yuan has a very bright future, he wants to revive the Ouyang family and the Cangbing Valley, and Chen Yuan's help is indispensable.

No wonder his mother fell in love with him. Who wouldn't be confused when seeing such a strange man in the world?

On the other side, Chen Yuan, who had been sitting in Zhang's mansion for a while, got up to say goodbye, and Zhang's second sister personally sent him out of the gate, revealing a stronger sense of intimacy than before.

Chen Yuan even thought that if he took the initiative, he might be able to take this woman down.

Become Zhang Xuan's brother-in-law.

But that's not how it works.

Zhang Xuan is his good friend, and Zhang Yantong has repeatedly supported him and expressed his kindness. He really didn't want to delay Second Sister Zhang, especially at this juncture.

It's not a blessing but a misfortune for the Zhang family to show no pretense to the imperial daughters, but fall in love with Zhang's daughters.

Looking at his daughter's posture, Zhang Yantong frowned, intending to stop her, but he didn't know where to start, so he just sighed softly, ready to reveal Chen Yuan's meaning to the emperor.

I just hope that the emperor has a broad mind and doesn't suppress Chen Yuan because of such trivial matters.

Chen Yuan, who returned to the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion, soon learned from the housekeeper that the fourth prince Sima Ke and a man in white with the surname Ouyang came to visit.

Sima Ke intends to ascend to the position of prince. At this time, he came to visit him to ask for help. It can be said that this guy with the surname Ouyang is a bit interesting.

Among the people he knew, there were only a few people with the double surname Ouyang, which was not a common surname, and he almost didn't need the housekeeper to say anything more, before he guessed who it was.

Cheap son, Ouyang Zhi!

It's just that he met Sima Ke by such a coincidence this time, which really made him feel a little weird. After all, the relationship between himself and them is really weird.

In name, they have all been to their hometown.

As for why it was in name, it was naturally that Ouyang Zhi was not born to Mrs. Xu, but only raised the eldest sister's heir on her behalf.

When Chen Yuan arrived in the lobby, Sima Ke and Ouyang Zhi were talking vigorously, but they didn't realize it until he got close, and they quickly got up and cupped their hands and said with a smile:

"Brother Chen."

Ouyang Zhi looked at this cheap father whom he hadn't seen for a long time, but his own power was no longer the same as in the past. He also straightened his face, bowed and said:

"Brother Chen, I haven't seen you for a long time."

With Sima Ke here, his title of 'father' is naturally to be covered up.

Chen Yuan nodded, and slowly sat on the top:

"It's been a long time since I saw it."

"Brother Chen, in your future, I have already had a lot of conversations with Brother Ouyang. It's strange to say that although this is the first time I've seen Brother Ouyang, I feel close to him in my heart."

"Yeah, yeah, boy... I also find it strange, brother Chen, do you know why?" Ouyang Zhi looked at Chen Yuan curiously and asked.

Hope to hear an answer.

Chen Yuan looked at the curious eyes of both of them, and laughed in his heart.

Can you not get close?

They are half brothers.

There is no fate in Ping Japan, and it is all connected by "Tao".

"Chen doesn't know about this, maybe the two of you hit it off." Chen Yuan smiled calmly.

"Brother Chen is right."

"You came here this time, but Madam has entrusted you with something?" Chen Yuan then turned his gaze to Ouyang Zhi and asked.

"That's true. My mother is pregnant with Brother Chen, but she has a heavy responsibility and it is not appropriate to leave Tangshan. It just so happens that I also have some yearning for the capital, so I took this errand to come here. Don't blame Brother Chen."

"Is Tangshan all right?"

Ouyang Zhi glanced at Sima Ke calmly, then shook his head slowly:

"Everything is fine, everything is safe, but the adults and... mother miss Brother Chen very much."

"Well, there will be opportunities in the future."

Chen Yuan nodded.

As long as there is nothing to do, Tangshan's foundation is actually not that important to him now, but after all, it is the place where his dragon rises, and he still has some feelings.

"Madam... Mother..."

Listening to the brief conversation between Ouyang Zhi and Chen Yuan, Sima Ke was at a loss, but after thinking for a long time, a flash of understanding flashed in his eyes, and he understood who Ouyang Zhi was.

He once investigated some of Chen Yuan's past, and knew that he had a foundation in Tangshan, and at the same time raised a woman, Mrs. Xu, who was once the most beautiful woman in Shuzhou.

And Ouyang Zhi is the son of Mrs. Xu.

No wonder he was so close before.

It turns out...they turned out to be the same people...

Thinking of this, when Sima Ke looked at Ouyang Zhi again, he felt unnatural and uncomfortable, but surprisingly, he couldn't hate him.

He could only sigh secretly, guessing in his heart that in the whole world, this was the only person who was connected with his fate.

I just don't know whether Chen Yuan and Mrs. Xu's good deeds were facilitated by this person. If it was true, then they thought of going together.

Thinking about it, Sima Ke couldn't help feeling a sense of crisis.

It is said that Mrs. Xu is as beautiful as a flower, and she is in her prime, but her mother and concubine are obviously older. If it is for favor, it seems to be a little worse.

What can be taken is nothing more than the identity of the imperial concubine.

Perhaps, only when the imperial sister married into the Chen family and became the official wife, could he leap forward and become Chen Yuan's most supportive...um...friend.

"Your Highness is here to establish the Crown Prince, right?"

After Chen Yuan talked with Ouyang Zhi, he immediately looked at Sima Ke.

"Brother Chen knows things like a god. That's right. Ke came here just for this. My father hopes that I will experience a period of time in the headquarters of the Sky Survey Department. I still need Brother Chen's help. Well... when I came, the concubine mother also said, change it." I must thank Brother Chen for your help."

As he said that, he also glanced at Ouyang Zhi, his eyes made Ouyang Zhi a little weird.

Why do you want to compete for favor?

shouldn't be...

Is it...

Ouyang Zhi's thoughts scattered, and thinking about his father Chen Yuan's sexual habits, he vaguely had a bold guess, and immediately took a deep breath.

No way? !

Won't!Won't!

Ouyang Zhi immediately strangled this thought to death, he must have thought too much.

No, even if what you think is true, you can't think about it anymore.

When he saw that the relationship between Ouyang Zhi and Chen Yuan was similar to his, he didn't hide it completely, anyway, he couldn't guess the twists and turns inside.

As everyone knows, Chen Yuan even has a faint suspicion about Ouyang Zhi, who likes Ouyang Zhi differently from ordinary people.

"what happened to you?"

Seeing that something was wrong with Ouyang Zhi, Chen Yuan frowned.

"Nothing, nothing, just thought of something."

Ouyang Zhi quickly waved his hands.

Chen Yuan stared at him, then answered Sima Ke's words:

"Well, Mr. Chen will help you with this matter, and send my regards to the imperial concubine for me."

The other party's thanks, he has already experienced it.

Verbal thanks are more than just verbal thanks.

"Thank you, Brother Chen."

Sima Ke smiled at the corner of his mouth, and he really found Chen Yuan's weakness.

The two explained their intentions, and Chen Yuan chatted while serving tea.

Sima Ke calmly mentioned to Chen Yuan what happened at the family banquet that day, and looked at Chen Yuan's thoughts. After all, when he heard about it before, he didn't react much, and even resisted.

But this time it was the emperor's intention, could it be that Chen Yuan wanted to resist the order?

But to his surprise, Chen Yuan's performance was still not salty, not ecstatic, nor did he frown to express boredom, which made him curious.

I couldn't figure out Chen Yuan's context at all.

In fact, Chen Yuan didn't want to talk more about it with him. Zhang Yantong himself had already refused, and the emperor must know that it would be useless to talk to Sima Ke.

Normally, if Concubine Yang Guifei and Princess Pingyang could serve him together, he would naturally not refuse, he just felt that it was a blessing that he deserved due to his good deeds all his life.

But after knowing what Jingtai thought of him, his mother and daughter Tufei's thoughts became much weaker, and he would not risk his future.

If Jingtai was really going to suppress him all the time, then he would find a way to transfer away from the capital immediately.

Being suppressed here is no fun.

After chatting for a while, Sima Ke offered to leave, while Ouyang Zhi stayed in the mansion to rest.

After Sima Ke, an outsider, left, Ouyang Zhi no longer concealed it, and reported to Chen Yuan the current situation of Tangshan and the recent events in the south of Shuzhou.

At the same time, Chen Yuan was also given a letter written by Mrs. Xu herself.

After Chen Yuan finished reading, he just smiled.

The development of Tangshan is progressing steadily. More and more Jianghu warriors are being recruited, and the quality is getting higher and higher. The first batch of alien war horses from Liangzhou has also arrived in Tangshan.

Chen Yuan's influence is expanding.

At the end of the letter, Mrs. Xu also expressed her love for Chen Yuan.

In general, it is almost the same as the previous imperial concubine.

……

……

That night.

Imperial City, Royal Study Room.

Jingtai sat on the dragon chair with gloomy eyes, frowning tightly. Just now, Zhang Yantong came to see him, expressing Chen Yuan's resistance in a subtle way.

I don't want to marry Princess Pingyang, I hope to get all the status and power by myself.

"Hmph, I don't know what's good or bad!"

Jingtai's eyes showed a fierce look, he stared at the chopping board under him and wanted to smash it directly.

Chen Yuan was the first person who dared to disobey his holy will. If it wasn't for this person's rare talent and the qualifications of a real king, if another person came, he would have been furious and began to plan how to deal with this person.

But Chen Yuan is different from ordinary people after all, his martial arts talent really makes him a little appreciative, and he feels that he has the qualifications to become a sword in the hands of the Sima royal family.

And... a lot of fame.

Maybe his current strength is not top-notch in the world, but his reputation is not lost, especially in the north, if he is suppressed for no reason, he will inevitably be criticized and the court's majesty will further decline.

While thinking about how to get Chen Yuan to agree to the marriage, Cao Zhengxian was also summoned, and when he saw Jingtai, he immediately bowed and said:

"The old minister has seen His Majesty."

"Ah."

"I don't know why Your Majesty called the old minister here?" Cao Zhengxian was a little suspicious.
