"Not Shen Yan?" Mo Chengying thought for a moment, "Avoiding taboo?"

"Yes! My brother's name is Yan Xiu, Shen Yan Xiu."

Shen Yangui randomly scratched the two words on his chest with his fingers, and he actually made out what they were.

"'When the seas are at peace and the rivers are peaceful, it is time to cultivate culture and put down military power.' Your father had high hopes for you, and he lived up to them."

"Well, my brother, I, and Yuanyuan, the three of us have the right names to bear witness to our parents' love."

Shen Yanxiu was born when his parents' love was the strongest, and they were full of hope for the future.

Shen Yangui was born after his parents had been apart for a short time. It is said that a short separation is better than a new marriage. When they were not together, they longed for each other and missed each other.

Shen Yuanyuan was born when her parents' relationship was at its lowest point. At that time, her father didn't even give her a proper name, but just picked a character at random.

"In fact, you can use your brother's name and lie to me that your brother wants to go to the south. Maybe I will agree to let you go in person because of your deep brotherly love."

Qingqing was so frank, and that reckless man Wuda knew nothing, but was still willing to support her unconditionally.

As Qingqing's most beloved person and the person she trusts without reservation, Mo Chengying naturally does not want to be inferior to someone else.

He is looking for a way out for himself.

"No!" Shen Yangui refused, "This is what I want to do, I don't need to use anyone's name."

The biggest difficulty Shen Yangui encountered when going to the battlefield was not the court officials, but her own husband.

Today is over.

"I like you, Jingming, I won't lie to you, and how could I lie to you about such a big thing?"

"In fact, if my brother were still alive, he would be as strongly opposed to it as you are."

Mo Chengying felt like he was drunk again, "What did you say? I didn't hear you clearly."

"I said, my brother would also object. When I was a child, my brother didn't allow me to go out and fight."

"That's not it." Mo Chengying's shoulders trembled, "In front."

"Ahead..." Shen Yangui knew what he wanted to hear, "The road ahead is not right!"

She looked ahead and said, "Are you still drunk? This is not the way back to the Pepper House."

"Take you to a good place!"

Mo Chengying's mysterious secret path.

It is said to be a good place, but as we headed west out of the Imperial Garden, the snow on the road became thicker and thicker, and we got further and further away.

"This is where?"

Shen Yangui was not familiar with the harem. He looked at the slightly shabby courtyard wall, which did not even have a door.

Obviously no one lived there for a long time.

Mo Chengying stopped and looked around the yard, "This is... the small study."

Where he grew up.

Shen Yangui got off his back and looked around the yard again:

A withered tree and two houses without doors, no matter how much they are renovated, can never be considered luxurious.

Such a small and shabby place actually trapped Jingming throughout his childhood?

"The largest one on the north side is the study, which is also my bedroom. The two rooms on the east side are where the nanny and the father-in-law live."

Mo Chengying followed Shen Yangui's gaze and introduced himself, and also told him where he usually read and played.

"Here!" He took two steps to the side and stepped on the ground, "I'll build a snowman here."

"When it snowed for the first time, my father-in-law and I would build a snowman together. Every time it snowed, he would pat it and trim it. When it was as big as me, he would stop adding snow and would leave in the next spring."

Leave... Shen Yangui pondered over this word. To him, it was not a cold snowman, but his playmate.

Leave this winter and come back next winter.

Mo Chengying took her hand and went to the study.

Chen Hui, who had not seen humans for many years, danced with excitement. Mo Chengying stretched out his hand and waved in front of Shen Yangui.

Then he pointed to the books on the shelf and said proudly, "I have read all these books."

The bookshelf is placed against the wall, the books are neatly stacked, and every compartment is filled to the brim.

There wasn't even a decorative vase.

Shen Yangui roughly estimated that there were hundreds of books.

"You've read so many books at such a young age?"

"Hmm~" Mo Chengying picked up a book casually, "I finished reading this "Zi Zheng Tong Yao" when I was five years old." (Note: It is not "Zi Zhi Tong Jian", which cannot be verified)

"Zi Zheng Tong Yao? Do you understand it?"

Mo Chengying had asked Shen Yangui to read this book carefully some time ago. It was a book about governing, understanding changes, appointing talented people, being close to the people, making decisions, and controlling the masses. She hasn't finished reading it yet.

Shen Yangui touched the shelf and flipped through another book. "Oh my god, you had such a miserable childhood! I haven't read so many books yet."

It had nothing to do with food, clothing and daily necessities. Shen Yangui simply felt that being forced to sit and read and write was a chore.

"What about the top one? It's so high. Did you take it down to look at it when you were a kid?"

"Of course! Can't I use a ladder if I'm not tall enough?"

Shen Yangui put the book down, turned around and walked around the table.

The desk is very clean, and the pens, inkstones and brushes are all placed in their designated places. If they were not covered in dust, it would seem as if the owner would come back and use them at any time.

Shen Yangui picked up the pen curiously, touched it, put it down, picked up the ink stick, sharpened it, put it down, and picked up the inkstone...

"Ok?"

I can’t even lift this inkstone?

Shen Yangui didn't believe it, and tried hard, "What did this do?"

Mo Chengying smiled and said, "It's fixed on the table and can't be moved..."

Before he finished speaking, there was a loud rumble and the dust in the room started flying again.

The bookshelf placed against the wall was like two doors, separated to both sides.

"careful!"

Mo Chengying subconsciously pulled Shen Yangui into his arms, fearing that he would trigger some fatal mechanism, and raised his hand to block it.

When the noise stopped, they both looked in the direction of the sound.

The bookshelf was not separated very far, and a small wooden door three feet square appeared on the wall.

"Is this a trap you set up?"

Mo Chengying shook his head blankly, "I don't know what's inside this bookshelf."

When he left the capital, he was less than ten years old. How could he understand all this except reading a few more books?

Shen Yangui has been brave in these matters since she was a child. She broke free from Mo Chengying's arms and reached out to open the door.

"This study was chosen for you by our father. He loves you so much that he racked his brains to find a way for you to make a living. Who knows, maybe he has hidden some treasure in it for you?"

"But the father-in-law and the mother-in-law were left behind when my royal grandfather was alive. The father-in-law said that my royal grandfather was assassinated in the small study. During my father's reign, he rarely came here to rest."

Mo Chengying was worried that something might go wrong, so he said cautiously, "I'll do it."

Shen Yangui did not argue with him. The two of them each took a small door, looked at each other, opened the door at the same time and dodged to the sides.

There were no hidden arrows flying out from inside, just a brocade box quietly placed there.

Although it had not seen the light of day for many years, the brocade box was still as bright as new, and the golden dragon and auspicious clouds were lifelike.

"I said there was a baby."

Shen Yangui happily took out the brocade box, put it on the table, and touched every surface with his hands, but there was no handle.

"How can this be called a box? It's clearly a wooden block painted with gold."
