"I said you are also interesting. You were the one who disagreed with this matter the most before, but now you are trying to persuade him to make peace." Xie Jue snorted and said, "It's not the time for you to beat around the bush and persuade the prince to let go?"

In Jiangfu's study room, the original desks and chairs were removed, and several large wooden boxes were placed beside the bookshelves, half of which were already filled, and the other half were empty.

Xie Jue leaned against the door with his arms folded to watch the excitement, and used his hands as a fan from time to time to remove a little dust that choked up.

"When will you do what?" Mr. Jiang stepped on the high ladder and turned around from the bookshelf, raised his eyebrows, and said straightforwardly: "It's different from the past. If you can't stop it, why do you stop it? Why don't you let Your Majesty stand up?" Happy new year."

Xie Jue was choked by his attitude, and he didn't understand how he said that he was so innocent.

"Don't just stand there and watch." Jiang Xiaohan said, "Come here and give me a hand, otherwise I won't have lunch."

Now that the new year is closed, all the affairs of the cabinet are temporarily sealed up, and they will only be dealt with after the new year.It was rare for Jiang Xiaohan to have a little free time at the end of the year, so he couldn't stay idle, thinking about tidying up the old books in the study.It just so happened that Xie Jue brought Cheng Yuan over to visit, and happened to be captured by him.

"Hey—" Xie Jue said angrily, "Jiang Mingyuan, are you still doing this? Is there anyone else to do this job?"

"My family, one big and one young, are immortals, how can they do such a rough job?" Jiang Xiaohan said with a smile: "If you can call it, you can call it, anyway, I won't go."

Xie Jue thought about Jing Zhan's snow-like child, and couldn't help shivering.

Reluctantly, he straightened up, and complained: "There are still servants."

"How can you leave things like writing books to the servants." Jiang Xiaohan said with a smile: "Don't be lazy, General Xie, if you don't like to move if you are so crooked, be careful to lay your bones down."

"Do you have a conscience? I've been fighting outside for almost two years, and I can't rest when I come back?" Xie Jue muttered and stood next to Jiang Xiaohan's high ladder, took the clean book in his hand, and turned his head. Stacked in a bookcase at your feet.

It was only at this time that Mr. Jiang would reveal his hypocritical literati temperament - although in Xie Jue's eyes, this was about too many things to do.

"Have you lost the battle for two years?" Jiang Xiaohan said, "This is the transition from General Xie to the Duke of the country. You are not yet [-] years old. Is this not enough?"

"What are you talking about?" Xie Jue shook his head and said, "It's not all for His Majesty, hey, it's not that important whether you get promoted or not."

Jiang Xiaohan shook his head and smiled, not embarrassed to expose him.

"That's right." Xie Jue suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Has the prince already moved into the palace?"

"I moved in three days ago." Jiang Xiaohan leaned forward and took out an old book from the corner of the bookshelf, spread it on his knees and carefully dusted it with a soft cloth, and said casually, "I didn't bring much, and moved in a very low-key way— — But I heard that they called all the clan members over to have a meal.”

"The Ninth Prince didn't faint from anger, did he?" Xie Jue gloated.

"It doesn't seem to be, it's quite strong." Jiang Xiaohan sighed regretfully.

In fact, these days, Jiang Xiaohan can probably guess a little bit of Ning Yan's meaning.He seemed to be gradually testing the bottom line of the clansmen, so that they would either voluntarily or be forced to accept Ning Huaijin's affairs.

Ning Jing is already the default prince of the Eastern Palace, and the people who take care of him are all Ning Yan's cronies, including an old nanny from Concubine Shu's Palace, which shows that Ning Yan attaches great importance to this child.

A few days ago, Ning Yan also asked Jiang Xiaohan to go there, implying that he wanted to find an emperor teacher for Ning Jing from now on.Although Ning Yan also wanted Jiang Xiaohan to bring Ning Jing, but father and son cannot worship the same teacher in name, otherwise the seniority will be messed up, and they can only choose another person with good character and ability to help Jiang Xiaohan.

"If you want me to say, don't look at our majesty's young age, he has a lot of thoughts." Xie Jue said: "Your Majesty has an idea in mind, so let's not worry about it, it's good."

Jiang Xiaohan hummed, and was about to say something when he heard a rush of footsteps outside.

The two of them followed the sound and turned their heads at the same time, when they heard a bang, the study door was pushed open from the outside.

The cold wind swept in immediately, blowing away most of the hot air in the room. Xie Jue hissed and rubbed his arms quickly.

"Close the door quickly." Xie Jue said, "You girl, when will you be able to keep your focus?"

Jiang Ling stuck out his tongue at him, closed the study door behind his back, and walked towards the bookshelf step by step with his hands behind his back, with a flattering smile on his face.

"Father, Dad asked you to go eat." Jiang Ling said.

Jiang Xiaohan saw her smile and knew that what she wanted to talk about was not just about eating, so he didn't leave, but raised his eyebrows and asked, "What else?"

"Also—" Jiang Ling had a good time, moved to Xie Jue's side little by little, bumped Xie Jue with his elbow, and said in a low voice: "Uncle, I just heard Uncle Cheng say outside, after waiting Are you going back to the border town in [-]?"

"That's right." Xie Jue said, "I'm not allowed to go back after the battle is over."

"That...that..." Jiang Ling faltered and glanced at Jiang Xiaohan out of the corner of his eye, coughed dryly, and said, "I want to play too."

Xie Jue: "..."

--What the hell?

General Xie was well-informed, and he didn't change his face with a million soldiers in his hands, but he was almost shocked by a little girl.

He looked at Jiang Ling in shock, almost thinking he heard it wrong, and asked again: "Where do you want to go?"

"I haven't been to the border town yet." Jiang Ling said enthusiastically, "I heard that there is a desert in the border town, and there are grasslands and wolves in the Turkic city farther away. I want to see it."

"No." Xie Jue refused flatly: "What child, the little girl's family is just playing in the Central Plains, and she wants to go to a foreign land. No, I won't take you."

"I travel by decree!" Jiang Ling held his chest high and said confidently, "Brother Yan said that I can play as I please! This is an imperial decree!"

"Then His Majesty didn't let you go to the frontier to eat sand." Xie Jue smacked Jiang Ling on the forehead: "If you don't believe me, you go to the palace and ask him that you are going to Turkic, and see if he will let you go. .”

Jiang Ling covered his forehead and stopped talking.

However, Xie Jue could tell by looking at her expression that this little girl had heard something interesting from somewhere, and she probably had already made up her mind.

"You, you, you——" Xie Jue nodded her forehead angrily, turned around and complained: "Mingyuan, don't worry about it, good girl, this is all running wild, and I won't be able to talk about kissing in the future, let me see what you do cry."

Jiang Xiaohan put down the soft cloth and duster in his hand, and took advantage of the opportunity to sit on the steps of the high ladder, watching the excitement without fear of serious problems.

"What are you afraid of?" Jiang Xiaohan said with a smile: "Marry if you find someone you like, and don't marry if you can't find someone you like. If it doesn't work, I can still recruit a relative. I'm afraid I can't afford her in this huge Xiangfu?"

Xie Jue understood, co-author Jiang Ling was able to grow from such a big and well-behaved pink dumpling to what he is now, thanks to Jiang Xiaohan's contribution.

"You just let your father get used to it." Xie Jue said.

"I promise not to cause trouble for you!" Jiang Ling made a swearing gesture, and said firmly, "I'm not going with the army, but anyway, uncle, you have to go back to the border town, and take me for a while."

Xie Jue was helplessly entangled by her, so he could only say, "Go ask your father what I do."

Jiang Ling's eyes lit up, and he turned to look at Jiang Xiaohan.

"Have you asked your brother?" Jiang Xiaohan asked sharply.

Jiang Ling: "..."

The second Miss Jiang, who was so excited just now that she seemed to be about to lift the roof of the house at any time, suddenly looked like a deflated ball, she lowered her head limply, like a little rooster that was drenched in water.

"Hey——" Xie Jue gloated, "I thought your posture was taking care of the whole family, so, girl, if you can take care of your father and brother, I will take you there."

"I can talk about your father." Jiang Xiaohan said slowly, "but you have to talk about your brother."

Xie Jue: "..."

Jiang Ling only felt that the dawn appeared in front of his eyes again, as if he had been beaten with blood, he agreed with a crisp voice and jumped to find Jing Zhan.

Seeing her in a hurry, Xie Jue patted the ash in his hand, shook his head and sighed, seeing that she had no airs of being a lady.

"You are really used to children." Xie Jue said, "Who's father treats you like this."

"Isn't happiness the most important thing in a person's life?" Jiang Xiaohan said: "Everything else is fleeting, whether it's fame or wealth, it's all empty after all. If you don't bring it with you, you won't take it with you when you die. Since she can Live happily for the rest of your life and do nothing to hold her back."

"Don't tell me, sometimes when I watch these children grow up, I suddenly feel that I am old too." Xie Jue sighed: "Obviously when I went to the border town, I was as old as her."

"Feel sad?" Jiang Xiaohan asked with a smile.

"Not really." Xie Jue said, "If I have to say it, I'm a little envious?"

Jiang Xiaohan waved his hand at him, Xie Jue knowingly stepped aside and let Jiang Xiaohan get down from the high ladder.

"If you want to have a queen, it's easy." Jiang Xiaohan said: "You are now in the prime of life, and your power is at the peak of power. The Xie family has a child who is a side branch who wants to adopt you. Now you don't have a monogamous and half concubine in your backyard. If you open your mouth, I think they will all agree."

"What are you going to do after you stay?" Xie Jue asked back: "If you take over Xie Jiajun in a few decades, it won't really be my family?"

Jiang Xiaohan smiled without saying a word.

"Forget it, Your Majesty's magnanimity is the blessing of being a courtier, and there is no guarantee that this blessing will be enjoyed from generation to generation." Xie Jue said: "Besides, if the sleeves are broken, any further adoption will be just deceitful. There is no need to do so. It's not like your family, where they are adopted when their fate comes, and they cannot be forced."

"Besides, it's enough for me to raise Xiaoyuan alone." General Xie said confidently: "It's so tiring to raise others."
