If the superior is willing to show his affection, the followers will never spoil the fun by bringing up the old rules of monarch-subject relations. How to talk about brotherhood and friendship with the prince is a skill that all the children of the noble families learn from a young age.

These people are obviously all intermediate and advanced experts.

"Hahaha, cousin, you are wrong in calling yourself this. Now that you are the crown prince, why are you still calling yourself the king?"

Chu Xiaosan has been very clever since he was young, and he is very quick to react, and he is good at livening up the atmosphere. Pei Changjing smiled and invited them to sit down and have tea, and then he replied with a smile on his face.

"Well, isn't it a habit? It's hard to change it now? Anyway, it's not a big deal. You act like the crown prince in front of others, but you have to act like me behind others. How tiring it is!"

The tone seemed as intimate as before, and the people present were also laughing and talking. After a lot of jokes, the high-profile halo of the crown prince was finally stripped off, revealing the familiar Pei Xiaoliu.

A few of them took a rare break from their busy schedules to sit together and drink tea, chatting and discussing everyone's current situation.

After they had almost finished talking about serious matters, Pei Changjing finally couldn't bear it anymore and looked at the handsome man with exquisite clothes and a handsome face, and asked with a little toothache.

"Old Shen, I'm not trying to pick on you, brother. I'm just saying that you are a general after all, right?

I am a military commander, but you dress up like a pretty boy every day. What are you thinking?"

"Pfft!"

Several consecutive sneers came out of Chu Zongyuan and Chen Lingfang's mouths. The two guys shook their shoulders secretly, obviously trying hard to hold back their laughter.

"If you want to laugh, just laugh. If you keep it in, you might run out of breath and die!"

Well, although this exquisite appearance makes people a little unrecognizable, but when he opens his mouth, he still has that venomous taste. Familiar!

"You're the one who made me laugh, Old Shen. If we weren't brothers, I wouldn't be loyal to you! Hahahahahahahaha..."

Chu Zongyuan laughed loudly, and Chen Lingfang also laughed with great interest, which made Pei Changjing look confused.

"No, what are you two so happy about? I have only been busy for a few days, and suddenly you have something else interesting to say? Tell me quickly so that I can have some fun too!"

"Hahaha, Your Highness, you don't know. Our Old Shen has run into a tough guy this time. This handsome face that has always worked in front of Dai Xiaoqi has almost fallen out of favor! Hahaha, pitiful..."

You can tell there’s something big going on just by listening to it!

Pei Changjing became visibly excited.

"Tell me, tell me quickly, what's going on? Didn't Youan say last time that Xiaoqi wanted to send Old Shen to the Zhennan Marquis Mansion? Didn't he go? What happened again?"

He really is worthy of being a blood brother of the Melon King. When the Crown Prince is in a good mood, his enthusiasm for eating melons is exactly the same as Chu Daidai's.

After taking a quick glance at the person who was still calmly drinking his tea and making sure that he would not get angry, Chu Zongyuan explained with a smile.

"Yes, why not? I heard from Dai Xiaoqi that the old man of the Shen family and the wife of the Marquis of Zhennan gave her a lot of gifts. She was so happy."

To be obedient, you must listen to the tone of the words, Pei Changjing's eyes flashed.

"What? Did the Zhennan Marquisate really split up?"

"Ah."

This time it was Shen Mufeng who spoke up.

"I have submitted a petition to give the position of Crown Prince to my late brother's only son, Shen Lin. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be passed down soon."

"Dead brother?"

This time even Chu Zongyuan and Chen Lingfang raised their eyebrows. Chen Lingfang hesitated for a moment before whispering to comfort her.

"I just heard a few days ago that your brother might not be in good health, but I never expected to hear the bad news today. The dead cannot be resurrected, so I hope General Shen will accept your condolences."

This guy's tongue is really interesting, he is indeed a character. Shen Mufeng nodded in greeting.

"Thank you, Lord Chen, for your consolation. Birth, aging, sickness and death are all God's will. We should just respect God's will and do what we can.

But my eldest brother and I have a deep brotherly love, and I couldn't bear to see his young son helpless. So I thought I'd just give the throne to that kid, and that would preserve our relationship."

You really are worthy of being the emperor's favorite. If we weren't all aware of the inside story, we might really call you, Mr. Shen, a living Bodhisattva!

Pei Changjing glared at him unhappily.

"What the hell is going on? Speak human language!"

Shen Mufeng muttered something half-truthfully.

"He wants to ruin my marriage."

He never mentioned how that bastard had gotten himself into trouble and got involved in the treason case a while ago. Fortunately, the eldest sister-in-law, Mrs. Mo, discovered it in time and reported it to the old man, and the Shen family was dragged back from the brink of death.

Even with his legs broken he was still restless. This was something the old Marquis of Zhennan had never expected and would never allow!

So the old man showed no mercy and personally beat his eldest grandson to death with a stick according to the family law. He and his son went to the palace to plead guilty at night, and only then did he manage to escape the king's butcher knife with his whole family.

Of course, the price was a complete break between father and son.

No matter how bad Shen Congfeng was, he was still the child favored by the Marquis of Zhennan all his life. How could he accept that his own father had beaten and killed his own son?

What's more, there's the old lady messing around too. How can it be sorted out with just the word "chaos"?

However, Shen Mufeng was too careless to bother with these unsolvable issues. After repeatedly asking his mother and confirming that she was unwilling to move out of the mansion, he took his beloved back to go through the motions.

Anyway, he had returned the title to the family, so he would just follow Chu Chu in the future. I had said it before, I was not going to separate from that family, but to join that family.

Well, no problem.

The man himself seemed to be thinking clearly, but it was obvious that the audience did not quite understand.

Pei Changjing rolled his eyes and asked hesitantly.

"So, your eldest brother is courting death by hooking up with my little Xiaoqi?

This can't be done, right?

With his looks, can he compete with yours?"

"Hahaha, Shen Congfeng is not good enough, but there are some who are good enough! Dai Xiaoqi only looks at the face, and doesn't distinguish between men, women, old and young. Hahaha..."

Chu Zongyuan was laughing so hard that he was gasping for breath. Chen Lingfang had to hold back his laughter and explain things to the crown prince.

"Your Highness, you have misunderstood. I know a thing or two about this matter."

Ever since the time in the Dachong Mountains, whenever they mentioned General Shen's various strange behaviors when he bumped into Princess Rongchang, the three of them always had something extra to talk about.

"General Shen heard that an envoy from another country had offered himself to Princess Rongchang, so he found a chance to have friendly discussions with him.

After leaving Sifang Pavilion, I happened to meet Her Royal Highness the Princess who was strolling with Mei in the market, so I went up to greet them.

However, he was no match for Song's beauty and nearly lost the favor of the princess. In the end, he could only leave with his face covered in shame. After returning home, he worked hard to fix his crown in front of the mirror, and only then could he barely match his opponent.

No wonder this guy can get along with Chu Suizuizi. When he is not a human being, he is really a bamboo shoot.
