Records of the King of Xin'an County

After relying on the power of his elders to remove Wang Chang's only commendable post of county lieutenant, Li Hui did not hide from Wang Zixian.He has never been of the temperament of doing things quietly, nor does he think that such an important matter should be concealed.After all, Wang Chang is the father of Wang Zixian, any change will have a slight or heavy impact on him.Only by telling the truth can it be easier for him to think about countermeasures in advance.Otherwise, if there is any misunderstanding in it, wouldn't the gain outweigh the loss?

"Just in case, I resorted to such a method of dredging the bottom of the pot and completely cut off his future. Only in this way, your patriarch will not have any hesitation, and will definitely favor you, and hold him tightly. Detain. It was just because the timing was so coincidental that I didn't have time to discuss it with you, so I made a decision on my own. Didn't my actions ruin your plan?"

Wang Zixian looked deeply at the young man sitting across from him, as if something was constantly bulging in his heart, wanting to tear his chest apart, he rushed over to completely submerge him.He knew that it was a surging emotion, an emotion that was only caused by the other person.It used to be like a gurgling brook, cheerful and warm; now it has become a surging river, deep, turbulent and passionate.

Sure enough, there was only this person in this world who planned for him wholeheartedly, who really put him in his heart, and communicated with him as an equal.Everything he does is done because of him and for his consideration.Whether it is big or small, there is a care and love that he has never had before.

It turns out that everyone in this world has weaknesses.And his only weakness is him.However, even if his future and life were given to him, perhaps he would still be content with it.Only she couldn't bear to lose him, the most important person - she didn't even want to think about the slightest possibility of losing him.Therefore, he had no choice but to continue to hide his secrets and guard him carefully.He would share everything with him except the secret lest he should hate him.

"Zixian?" Li Hui didn't see him responding for a long time, thinking that he had indeed made a mistake, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows.Could it be that he was really too eager to disrupt Wang Zixian's arrangement?So he was pondering, how to check for gaps?At that time, after hearing the words of Princess Changning complaining about their brothers' injustice, he had an idea, and took advantage of the opportunity of visiting Mrs. Du to kill Wang Chang completely.Thinking about it now, maybe it was really impulsive?

The prince returned to his senses, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help curling up: "No, A Hui, your move is very good. If you think about it, if you go back to Shangzhou in the future, you don't have to look at their faces all day long. You can solve it. My worries for the future, I can continue to study in the Imperial College with peace of mind, and sooner or later I will earn you a first-class title and come back."

The only pity is that Wang Chang's "good reputation" has not been spread.He originally wanted to take it easy and use Prince Ling to provoke him to come back to Chang'an himself.After he runs into walls everywhere and realizes the dangers of Chang'an, let his "evil father" set off his "filial son" well.Then, the supervisory censor participated in the performance, and asked him to abandon his official position and return to Shangzhou in despair.The current result is actually not bad, after all, his "good reputation" has already spread into the palace.

"Earn me a No. [-] title?" Li Hui couldn't help laughing, "Okay! Okay! Then I can show it off to others - I am the youngest friend of the first class in Guochao. If If you want to get to know Wang Zixian, you have to pass my test first. I will sift through the postings of any literature club or poetry club for you. Those who think highly of themselves, those who are self-righteous, and those who seek fame and fortune will not know Let them come over and get in your eyes."

The two had a tacit understanding, and they all thought of Yang Qian and Yang Zhuangtou, and they looked at each other and laughed.

After laughing, the prince poured tea slowly for Li Hui, squinting his eyes slightly amidst the fragrance of the tea: "Yang Qian tried to use Zimu's apprenticeship to catch me last time, but he didn't succeed. I want to give him a handle, what do you think?" The hazy light smoke covered his deep eyes, and the indifference in them was like a cold sky.

"Send it out?" Li Hui understood, "Wang Ziling? You want to 'fulfill' him?" He could understand the thoughts of his best friend, and instead of waiting for Yang Qian to attack again, it would be better to show weakness for now, confuse him, and avoid his edge.As long as Wang Ziling stayed in Chang'an, he would be a shining target, and sooner or later he would become the target of the enemy.As long as you hold him, you can more or less control the two brothers of the Wang family.If he can't stand the provocation and plot against his brother secretly, it's not the best policy to be on guard.

"I'm just a student of the Imperial College, how can I 'perfect' him? It's just to give him a chance to 'perfect' himself, it depends on whether he can grasp it. If even this little thought is not worth spending, he will wait It is useless in Chang'an. Send him to Yang Qian, maybe we can live a stable life." Wang Zixian lowered his eyes, "However, I still don't understand why Yang Qian insists on making things difficult for me. Could it be because of me? You rejected his invitation to become a teacher earlier?"

"I'm also a little curious." Li Hui continued, "Could it be that he is as unpredictable as I am, predicting that you will be the number one in the future, and will take away all his fame?" In the final analysis, there is only jealousy Only then can this be explained.Perhaps, Yang Qian is really able to distinguish talents, that's why he has such scruples about Prince Xian.If you can't subdue it, naturally you will only be suppressed, or even completely destroyed.

"The ability to predict is unknown, he is definitely not as good as you." Wang Zixian smiled in his eyes.

The two changed the subject and stopped talking about it.After all, their lives are full of fun and don't have to revolve around a stranger.Moreover, spending the winter in Chang'an City for the first time, they all felt that it was quite fresh, and at the same time they were looking forward to it.It seems like a good choice to try to have a night chat by the fire in the snow?

In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the winter solstice. The saint led all the civil and military officials to the Taimiao to worship the ancestors, and the royal family and clan members naturally accompanied them.The ceremony is very cumbersome. Not only do you need to get the crown, but you also have to repeatedly kneel down and knock down nine times.Li Hui looked at his grandfather's back from afar, feeling really worried for him.Such a sacrifice, even a young and strong boy like him feels a little tired, let alone an old man whose body is getting weaker day by day?

However, in the eyes of his children, grandchildren and officials, the saint's back is still straight, as if there is no difference from the past.Only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was closest to him, noticed that his movements were gradually becoming sluggish, so he stepped forward without a trace and helped him up.The saint, who was secretly relieved, looked at him sideways and smiled in relief.

After the sacrifice, the royal family and clan changed their clothes and went to the Lizheng Hall to offer sacrifices to Queen Qin.This time, a lot of graceful figures were added to the sacrificial priests, but the female relatives also joined them.This time the sacrifice was not a big sacrifice, so it came to an end soon.The saint, who wept again, rested directly on the bed in the inner part of the temple, and motioned for everyone else to leave.

Li Hui looked back three times at every step, but he was still worried after all.Li Xin took him to the outside, and said in a low voice: "At this time, grandfather should want to be alone, and it would be unfilial to disturb him. Besides, uncle and aunt must have arranged for the imperial physician to stay outside. Let's go to the banquet That is, if I tell my grandfather about the excitement tomorrow, he will be happier."

Li Hui nodded slightly, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw Li Qianniang, the head of Yichuan County.He frowned, and vaguely felt that the corners of her eyes and brows were all pitiful, as if she had completely changed.Could it be that she escaped catastrophe by pretending to be pitiful, so she planned to show others in such a pitiful manner in the future?

Indeed, in this way, there are many people who are easily bewitched by her.Not to mention the two brothers Li Wei and Li Jing who had been shaken before, there are also some clansmen who have a particularly gentle attitude towards her - such as Li Ge, the youngest son of King Jing, and several county heads who were born out of concubines.Moreover, even Princess Anxing treated her a little more gently.Although the two of them didn't say much, each other's demeanor and behavior were quite profound.

Li Hui couldn't help thinking of the brothers and sisters of the Sun family mentioned by Wang Zixian, and wondered if they had successfully approached the Xu family.The relationship between Princess Anxing and Li Qianniang is too delicate, there is no telling when troubles will arise, and careful preparations must be made.

Li Xin also noticed his gaze: "They didn't dare to show their whereabouts under the eyes of everyone. Now, there are countless people in the Taiji Palace who are staring at them, and there is no shortage of you. You just need to have a feast with peace of mind That is, it is not too late to arrange the rest of the matter after the banquet is over."

When the royal family held a banquet, in the small courtyard of Yankangfang, Wang Zixian was also bringing his two younger brothers to worship the ancestors.After the three of them solemnly bowed down to the ancestral tablets, they held incense and inserted them into the censers respectively, and then raised the wine cups and sprinkled wine on the sky, the earth and the ancestral tablets.Because they are not officials, they don't need to use any ritual utensils, and they don't need to use the complicated etiquette of officials, so the process is much simpler.

After the ancestor worship, a wind barrier has been built under the pomegranate tree in the center of the courtyard.The three brothers sat around the stove, Aliu and the maids brought out exquisite food like flowing water, and then slowly retreated after the food table was filled.Wang Zixian and Wang Zimu have no one around to serve them, and Wang Ziling has always had a lot of beautiful and beautiful maidservants, but it is not good to be too presumptuous just after offering sacrifices to the ancestors.As a result, only the three brothers were left in the barrier.

After eating the lunch silently, Wang Zixian said slowly: "The Yang family sent a letter, saying that there is an auspicious day in the first month of the twelfth lunar month, which is suitable for the apprenticeship ceremony. At that time, Zimu will be with Zhang Nian, Du Chongfeng paid homage to Mr. Zhou together. Now, I have already ordered Qingsou to prepare all the gifts that should be prepared. Zimu, after worshiping a famous teacher, you must not slack off. Be filial to Mr. Zhou, respect every senior brother, no matter what No matter what your background is, you must never underestimate it—I don’t need to repeat these anymore, right?”

"Yes, brother, I'll save it." Wang Zimu agreed, but there was no joy on his face.He already knew the groundless accusations in Grandpa's letter, and he also understood the pressure his elder brother was under now.If he could have foreseen today, he would never agree to apprenticeship.Such a happy event made the already divided family even more unreasonable, and the young man felt extremely heavy.The things he had tried not to think about, now had to think over and over again.And the more he pondered, the more panic he felt, and he always felt that there was some truth that was about to come out.

Seeing that they were still very calm, Wang Ziling no longer looked complacent, sneered a little anxiously, and said in a drawn-out voice: "Could it be that elder brother forgot Grandpa's entrustment?"

Wang Zixian glanced at him indifferently: "Of course I have never forgotten Grandpa's entrustment. However, what can I do to teach Yang Zhuangtou to change his mind? Even if Zimu becomes his junior, there is nothing between us." It's just a nod."

"So, you would rather be an unfilial and disrespectful person than plan for me?!" In a rage, Wang Ziling violently overturned the food table, and the leftovers spilled all over the floor, creating a mess.

Wang Zimu lowered his eyes, but there was no response.Wang Zixian's expression still remained unchanged: "I can ask for a chance to meet Yang Zhuangtou for you. Whether you can seize this opportunity and let him take you is up to you. You should be very clear in your heart. All I can do is nothing more than this." After that, he smiled bitterly: "I have never begged anyone in my life, and now... I have to make an exception."

Wang Ziling was slightly taken aback, and then showed ecstasy: "Hehe! Don't worry! As long as I see Yang Mingdu, I will naturally have a way to get him to recommend me as a junior!"

"Very good, then I'll wait and see." The prince replied with a forced smile.

Seeing this smile in Wang Ziling's eyes, he felt more complacent, feeling that he had grasped his weakness with one hand.But in Wang Zimu's eyes, it was even more bitter.He suddenly felt that there was no difference between himself and the second brother, they were just moths that pounced on the elder brother, absorbing his flesh and blood to strengthen himself.

King Sipu: Wait a minute, what does it mean to you that he earns first place?Why do you say I earned it for you?Can I still give you a commandment?

King Sipu: Hehe, obviously he said something wrong, okay?

Wang Langjun: If you can really make A Hui seal something...

Xiaojun Wang: →→, as the county king, I didn’t give him any practical benefits?You can't ask him for an official or anything.
