Records of the King of Xin'an County

Perhaps, when Princess Changning chose to go with Prince Xin'an, she really had some children's thoughts in her heart.However, the king of Xin'an County did not allow her to do so.As a good and responsible elder brother, he has been riding on horseback by the window of Yandi's car, chatting and laughing with Princess Yong'an softly.The two brothers and sisters always talked and laughed at Yan Yan, which sounded like childish talk, but neither of them could bear to disturb each other.

Therefore, Princess Changning could only stare at Wang Zimu from a distance through the corner of the window.In order not to attract the attention of others, she would respond to Princess Yong'an with a word or two from time to time, and even her gaze could only be intermittent.And Wang Zimu, who was beside Wang Zixian, didn't dare to do anything that would make people daydream in public, and could only occasionally look up and look back at the past.

A good couple of teenagers and girls were "broken apart" just like that by teaching the two tacit understanding brothers, and they didn't know where to complain about the grievances in their hearts.Of course, they also understand very well that their relationship with each other is still hazy, immature and fragile.If they reveal anything, or if they are seen in full view, what awaits them will never be the fulfillment of tolerance, but endless storms.

The behavior of the brothers at the moment seems a little unreasonable, but in fact they are protecting them - but, such protection will always make people feel a little depressed.

The guard of honor of the two princesses did not leave until they arrived at Yankang Square.Li Hui glanced sideways at Prince Xian's brother, then turned his horse and did not go back home.Wang Zixian, who was still angered, took Wang Zimu back to the Fuji Garden, which meant that if he didn't explain the matter clearly, he would not be allowed to go back to the other courtyard of the Yang family.

The two brothers closed the study door and sat upright.Wang Zixian looked at the younger brother opposite, and suddenly felt that he had indeed grown up.Back then, he was also at this age when he discovered his own mind and had someone he admired.Once an emotional matter comes, no one can control it, and there is no need to control it.The only thing that makes the elder brother a little sad - is that his own relationship is progressing slowly, but the yellow-haired boy in front of him is already in love with each other.

"Brother..." Under the serene and composed eyes of the elder brother, Wang Zimu was a little nervous.However, not long after, he controlled his emotions, and admitted gently but firmly: "I really like your lord... It's been a while. I didn't want to tell her, let alone disturb her life , but she doesn't seem to be happy...so I...I only found out later that she also treats me..."

"Your lord is a rare little lady. I'm actually not surprised that you are pleased with her." Wang Zixian said flatly, "But, you should also know that she already has a marriage contract. Li, just looking at her from a distance, there is nothing wrong with that. But now, you are facing the difficulties, and you have almost confessed your feelings to her, right? Could it be that you forgot that she already has an unmarried son-in-law? You forgot her What kind of identity is it?"

"I have never forgotten her identity." Wang Zimu replied in a low voice, "but I like her, which has nothing to do with her identity. When she was Li Shishilang, I thought she was very special. If I fell in love with her When you are alone, if you can easily control the full of affection, you can't be regarded as true love." After that, he raised his eyes and looked at his elder brother: "Brother, why not?"

Wang Zixian squinted his eyes, and slightly raised the corners of his lips: "Me? So what about me?"

"Brother, is it more than a life-and-death friendship for the county king?" Wang Zimu said, and under his extremely oppressive gaze, he also maintained a calm demeanor, "If I didn't realize my affection for your lord , I am afraid that it is impossible to find that brother has the same admiration for the county king. I love your lord and want to marry her so that she can live happily all the time—maybe it is indeed beyond my control, and the road ahead is also very difficult .But, my brother loves the king of the county, wants to get his response, wants to be with him, ten times or a hundred times more difficult than me?"

At this moment, the atmosphere in the study was tense as if it would be on fire the next moment.However, Wang Zixian's chuckle broke the silence and restored the tense atmosphere to tranquility and peace.

As if he felt that sitting upright was a bit too solemn, after the prince smiled, he reclined and lay down on his side.Between gestures, there was a bit of leisure and casualness that I never had when facing my younger brother before: "Even you can see it, and I don't know how many people are watching it, but I was negligent. If these If someone makes Xuan Qi difficult because of this, it goes against my original intention."

"Brother, don't worry." Wang Zimu breathed a sigh of relief quietly, and sat cross-legged instead, "If it wasn't someone close to me, it would be impossible to think too much. Even if it was me, I was just guessing from the details, and I am not completely sure. , I just think it should be six or seven percent true. It wasn't until my brother's reaction..."

"You have also learned to deceive people, but I am the one who deceived you." Wang Zixian looked at him with a half-smile, "Forget it, it's not a bad thing. Let's not talk about my affairs, let's talk about your plan. You If you want to marry your lord, how should you marry? Why should you marry? Do you know that the marriage between your lord and Yan Dalang will never be dissolved easily? What qualifications do you have to win the favor of saints and queens, so that they will willingly send their beloved daughter down? to you?"

Wang Zimu replied earnestly: "Brother, I have thought about it carefully. In the past two years, I will study hard and study hard, and try to get out of the tribute exam as soon as possible. If I can win the first place like my brother, I will be able to do it." Become famous in the capital at one stroke. An unknown scholar is naturally insignificant, and he is not qualified to be the master; but a young man with a head will always make the saint and His Royal Highness look at him with admiration."

"Getting a middle-ranked head? It's not the first-ranked head, but the second-ranked head. Do you think it's so easy?" Wang Zixian raised his eyebrows, "Not to mention, among your senior brothers, Du Chongfeng is better than you. He is more talented. I wouldn't be surprised if he won the middle or even the first rank within these two years. As for you... Maybe five or six years later, you will be able to have enough confidence. I think in one or two years It is indeed dangerous and dangerous to pass the tribute examination and win the first place."

Hearing this, Wang Zimu frowned: "My lord can't wait so long. Five or six years is too long, and there are too many variables."

"You also know that there are many variables?" Wang Zixian said again, "Not to mention other things, do you think that as long as you are good enough, this marriage can be dropped? How could Yan Dalang give up your lord so easily? , enough to keep undefeated for three generations. If within three generations, one more princess can be honored, and the prosperity and wealth of three generations can be maintained. Honoring the princess is the way to revitalize the family business that all declining nobles can't wait for. Such a stake Marriage, they will never agree to dissolve it."

"Because Yan Dalang regards your lord as the east wind that keeps the Duke of Cheng's mansion rich, I want your lord to live a happy life!" To this, Wang Zimu's reaction was very strong, "Your lord, but How unfair is it to her to marry someone who only sees benefits in her eyes?! If you really love someone, if you treat her sincerely, you will never think of using her as a means to revitalize your family!"

"How do you know that Yan Dalang has no affection for your lord?" Wang Zixian's expression was still calm, calm to the point of indifference, "If he is unwilling to give up your lord, it's not just because of interests, but because of affection. That's right. No matter how many temptations are given to him, it is impossible for him to back down."

Wang Zimu was stunned, and said firmly: "His heart is not sincere, even if he pleases your lord, he can't treat your lord wholeheartedly. All in all, I only hope that your lord can marry the person he wants to marry, and live a happy life. The life I want to live——if she can live happily, even if your lord chooses not me in the end, I..."

Speaking of this, he couldn't help showing struggle and pain on his face, but he still said with great difficulty: "Even if it's not me, I feel happy..."

Wang Zixian was not moved by this, but sighed softly: "Sanlang, if you really admire someone and he is in love with you, you must not give in. You must firmly believe that only you can let him He has lived the happiest and most comfortable life in this life. Even if you don't have the ability now, you will be able to protect him from anyone in the future. You must firmly believe that no one's affection or persistence can compete with you compared to."

Wang Zimu lowered his eyes and shook his head gently: "Brother, I am different from you. I don't want to force her, let alone make her difficult. I believe that no matter what she chooses, it is out of prudent consideration. , there must be a reason. As long as she feels that she is doing well, I am very satisfied..."

"It's useless to say these things now." Wang Zixian frowned, "Forget it, for the sake of today's plan, you can study well. You don't need to take care of the Yang family's affairs. Now that they are eyeing me, they will naturally come to find me. Me. It's safer for me to inquire about it myself than to let you act alone. As for Ziling, I'm not used to him having been quiet for so long."

"Second brother has always listened to Senior Brother Yang very much, and he behaves quite decently." Wang Zimu came back to his senses and replied, "It's just that Senior Brother Yang has been very close to Brother Elder lately, and I don't think he feels good seeing him. Moreover, there have been rumors recently that the Yang family wanted to capture a son-in-law and marry a daughter to brother-in-law. After hearing the rumors, his expression changed drastically and he left on the spot. I was a little worried that he would have other plans .”

"Other plans?" Wang Zixian laughed meaningfully, "I can't ask for it." He had no interest in the Yang family's daughter, and was thinking about how to reject the Yang family's "good intentions".If Wang Ziling could get in the way and spoil the matter by mistake, it would only be good for him.However, this matter has to be well managed, and there must be no mistakes.

After the discussion just now, Wang Zimu has also realized that his brother's temperament is far from being as gentle and unrestrained as he thought.However, in his mind, his elder brother is still the one he trusts and relies on wholeheartedly, and will never change.For some reason, he suddenly thought of the secret feeling in his elder brother's heart again, and became a little worried for him.

Seeing that he was hesitating to speak, Wang Zixian glanced at him: "Why? Just say what you have to say."

"Brother... When are you going to confess to the king?" Even though he is as gentle and tolerant as Wang Zimu, when he mentioned this matter, he still felt a little awkward. I didn't think much about it. If it takes a while, maybe he will get married..."

"..." Wang Zixian almost said to himself, "Even you guys think...he hasn't noticed anything strange yet?" However, he seemed to feel something vaguely.It's just that I didn't dare to confirm it carefully because I cared too much, valued it too much, and worried too much about losing it.Of course, the relationship between him and Li Hui has nothing to do with others: "This matter has nothing to do with you, you don't need to think about it, I have my own opinion."

"..." Wang Zimu looked at him, and a thought suddenly came to his mind: If my elder brother really got what he wanted, in the future, should he call the king of Xin'an County his sister-in-law—or his elder brother?
