At the beginning, there is smoke coming out of the ancestral grave, and the woman is busy in the imp

"In all these years, has there ever been a time when my younger brother was less advantaged than my brother-in-law?"

"Have I ever informed my sister about the girls you have raised outside? My brother-in-law is so shameless."

Fan Hong gritted his teeth, went out and called his entourage, whispering a few instructions.

Early the next morning, Si Yuandao went to the government office, and Xie Mingli also went to Jingzhaoyin to teach the officials how to draw.

When Xie Yuheng was asleep until late, he suddenly remembered something in a daze, as if he was going to see the queen today...

I was so sleepy when I came back yesterday that I forgot to say anything to Rong Shi and others.

Xie Yuheng suddenly sat up from the bed, startling Rong Shi who was about to wake her up.

"Sir, Mrs. Nalan is here, and she has brought a young master with her. Miss Yunhua is now keeping her company in the middle hall."

After waiting for the master to wash up, Rong Shi took the basin and went out.

Xie Yuheng rubbed his still sleepy eyes, took out the county prince's robe from the wardrobe, dressed neatly and left the yard.

From a distance, I saw a swallow-shaped kite floating in the sky next to the nave.

When Xie Yuheng passed through the corridor, a fat little man jumped out from behind the large flower pot next to him.

Then there was a thud. Kneeling in front of Xie Yuheng, he called loudly: "Father-"

The rise is fierce, and the adopted son falls from the sky.

Xie Yuheng held his forehead. Although he knew that Little Fatty was hiding behind him, he never expected...

Nalan Jing blinked her innocent big eyes, flickering, looking at this adoptive father who was not a few years older than him.

Yesterday, his father told him that he wanted to have a good relationship with Jianglinghou, the new champion.

He said that if he followed the Marquis of Jiangling, he would become popular and drink spicy food in the future.

He doesn't like spicy food, but he likes spicy food, and his favorite is squirrel mandarin fish!

After tossing and turning all night, he thought about it, and it seemed that the relationship between parents and children was the strongest.

Anyway, he already has a father and doesn’t care about having another one!

"Nalan Jing!"

The sound of the woman's gnashing teeth sounded behind Xiao Pangdun, as terrifying as a life-threatening evil spirit.

Xie Yuheng bowed his hands and said, "I have met Mrs. Nalan."

After thinking about it, I added, "The child is still young..." It's important to fight early...

Mrs. Nalan put on a loving smile, greeted Xie Yuheng, then picked up the little fat man with one hand and walked to the side.

"Father save me——"

And then... there was a snap, and the world became quiet.

When Mrs. Nalan returned to the central hall with Little Fatty, she saw Nalan Jing, who was close to becoming her adopted son.

He tried hard to cover his buttocks with both hands, but he was too fat and couldn't reach them.

Mrs. Nalan covered her lips with silk and said gently: "The dog is naughty and makes the Marquis of Jiangling laugh."

"It's better for children to be lively and active." Xie Yuheng picked up the tea cup, lowered his head and took a sip to hide the smile in his eyes.

After chatting for a while and getting acquainted, they left the house and got on the carriage.

When they arrived at Li Zhengdian, the Queen's residence, Little Fatty threw himself into the Queen's arms like a cannonball, crying and complaining.

After Ji Pingjun asked why, he silently returned the little fat man to Mrs. Nalan.

Still able to jump around, but it was too light.

Turning to look at Xie Yuheng aside, Ji Pingjun said softly: "I often hear His Majesty mention the Marquis of Jiangling. Today I saw that he is indeed a young hero."

Xie Yuheng lowered his eyes, focusing only on the floor tiles under his feet, and replied: "Your Majesty, I am so complimentary. I am ashamed that I cannot bear it."

After chatting for a while, the little palace maid came in to report. Her face was extremely ugly and she whispered: "The Queen Mother invites Marquis Jiangling to come over and talk."

Ji Pingjun stopped smiling and remembered hearing someone report earlier.

It was said that after the small court meeting, the Queen Mother's people called Prince Rui over in a hurry.

Now he is called the number one scholar in the new department... It can be said that it is Sima Zhao's heart, and everyone knows it.

But the Queen Mother occupies a single letter, and the Emperor has to maintain a superficial sense of filial piety for as long as he is alive.

Ji Pingjun had no choice but to send someone to Princess Ji's palace to deliver a message, asking her to keep an eye on her so that nothing could go wrong.

......

Xie Yuheng knelt in the Queen Mother's Hall and did not hear the Queen Mother's cry for a long time.

It is said that the Queen Mother favored her youngest son, King Rui, and disliked her eldest son, the Emperor.

I'm afraid this is to build a relationship between her and King Rui, to suppress her arrogance first, and then...

But the new top scholar and King Rui approached each other, and it didn't sound good no matter what.

My knees hurt from kneeling for so long, and I was thinking about letting Suzaku set up an illusion.

A man in rich clothes walked out from behind the curtain, turned around and said loudly:

"My son has taken the little champion to play. If the queen has a headache, she should rest. My son will come see you another day when he is free."

The figure's arms behind the curtain moved slightly. Seeing this, Chu Chen carried Xie Yuheng away from the Queen Mother's palace like a chicken.

Chu Chen didn't let out a long sigh of relief until he stuffed her into the sedan chair.

If he really wanted to have a relationship with this little guy in front of his mother, he was afraid that his brother would be beaten to death if he found out about it afterwards.

"I will take you to play like a little old man day by day. Don't read like a fool."

Chu Chen gave the order and the sedan moved forward with difficulty.

In the small space, listening to the labored groans of the bearers, Xie Yuheng tried his best to sit in the corner as still as possible.

Xie Yuheng lowered his eyes and explained: "I don't read every day at home. I also play leaf cards with my brother and friends as a pastime."

"Leaf cards? What's the meaning of that thing?"

Chu Chen's eyes moved and he said, "I will take you to a fun place."

After leaving the palace, I changed to a carriage. The carriage swayed all the way to the back door of the branch hall in Pingkangfang, which was full of gold and jade.

After changing out of his official robe and putting on his mask in the room, he followed Chu Chen and continued walking forward.

Xie Yuheng looked at the surrounding decorations and asked tentatively: "Is this golden and jade-filled hall your Highness's business?"

Chu Chen didn't hide anything and said proudly: "Well, it's not bad at all."

This rich family can provide a lot of subsidies to the state treasury in a year.

Xie Yuheng: "..."

Suddenly I remembered that I had seen a man in the gold and jade hall in the West Market, loudly encouraging others to bet on the number one prize in Chi Song.

The number one scholar is determined by whoever the emperor chooses. There is no chance that he will fall into the hands of a heir from a noble family.

Now it seems that Chi Song's name of "Tanning Hua" is a bit strange.

After twists and turns, we finally arrived at the lobby of Jinyu Mantang, which was already overcrowded with gamblers.

"big big big!"

"Xiao Xiaoxiao!" Voices like this filled Xie Yuheng's ears.

Looking at the red-eyed gambler, Xie Yuheng frowned slightly.

Chu Chen played with a few jade dice and looked at each table from time to time.

Looking back, he saw Xie Yuheng's small face looking pensive, and asked with a smile: "But you think I'm helping others to harm you?"

Xie Yuheng shook his head. These people would not be gambling in Jinyumantang, but elsewhere.

Suddenly seeing a familiar face, Xie Yuheng said hello to Chu Chen and went there with a few wealthy thugs.

"Uncle Zhuang." Xie Yuheng called softly.

Zhuang Yun was so frightened that the wig almost fell off his head.

He looked around and lowered his voice: "Why are you here?"
