Ning Huaijin was stopped by Jiang Xiaohan for a moment.

Love is too unfamiliar to him, so much so that Jiang Xiaohan has already said this, but Ning Huaijin still can't understand the meaning of this sentence.

He was stunned because of another thing - because Ning Yan had said similar things to him before.

But when the young man said this, he was not as understated as Mr. Jiang. Ning Yan had tried his best to look calm at that time. Don't put on a face like a child who has been robbed of candy, but Ning Huaijin can still See how sad he is.

"Your Majesty." Jiang Xiaohan said earnestly, "Your Majesty is young, just when he is stubborn. You and I are both here at this age. You should understand his heart."

When Ning Yan said this, Ning Huaijin could treat him as a child's heart indifferently, and forget it after venting.But when these words came out of Jiang Xiaohan's mouth, Ning Huaijin couldn't help but think a few more words.

"According to Mingyuan, what should this king do?" Ning Huaijin asked humbly.

"How can I talk about the prince." Jiang Xiaohan smiled and said, "But if it were me, I would definitely return this sincerity."

Ning Huaijin pursed her lips, wondering: "Why?"

It's not that he didn't try his best, but every time he mentioned this matter to Ning Yan, there would always be an inexplicable and unhappy ending, leaving him with nothing to do.

"Your Majesty has intentions for the prince, it comes from the heart and ends with emotion, and it is the purest." Jiang Xiaohan said: "If the prince blindly talks to your majesty about the overall situation, ethics, and those thousands of pairs of eyes outside, it is the most pure thing." You can't make His Majesty give up, you can only make him sink deeper and deeper."

Ning Huaijin looked at him suspiciously, waiting for him to continue.

"As I said just now, His Majesty's mind is the purest, so using these things to reject him, not only will it not make him retreat, but it will make him have other thoughts - thinking that as long as it is solved These scruples of the prince will be able to get what he wants." Jiang Xiaohan said with a smile: "Your Majesty is taking chances like this, but it is not getting deeper and deeper."

Ning Huaijin was slightly taken aback.

After sitting for a long time, he finally understood.

Prince Gong has no understanding of love, but he is not a fool who does not know the world. Jiang Xiaohan's words are just trying to persuade him to face up to Ning Yan's intentions, and then seriously and use the most "pure" way to cut off Ning Yan's thoughts .

— But no, Ning Huaijin thought.

He just asked Ning Yan to take back his heart, and the other party was already so sad. If he directly spread out this heart and crushed it, denied it little by little in front of Ning Yan, and seriously used the matter of "love" to reject him, Wouldn't it make him more painful.

"Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain" is easy to say, but in reality, Ning Huaijin couldn't help it.

Ning Huaijin was suddenly very confused, and rationally told him that what Jiang Xiaohan said was right, he had cleared the fog for him, and pointed out the most effective way.But emotionally, as long as Ning Huaijin imagined the scene where he rejected Ning Yan, he would feel distressed.

Besides, he wasn't sure he could really speak.

He knew Ning Yan's temperament best. He looked soft-tempered, but in fact he had the most ideas, and he refused to turn back easily.If the words went deep, Ning Yan asked him if he really had no feelings for him, but Ning Huaijin thought he couldn't feel his conscience and say no.

He has raised Ning Yan for these years, and watched him grow into such a tall and handsome young man from a small bean. Whether it is family affection or mutual dependence, it is a mess.If he were to tear a clean thread out of this mess to deny, he couldn't.

Love itself is very mysterious, it's nothing more than a mixed feeling of "love" and "possessiveness", and it's nothing to take it apart.When people describe love, they often say that they live together and fly together, life and death follow each other—he can do it with Ning Yan.

But can this be called love?

People have such a heart, Ning Huaijin thought, feelings are everything, the good and the bad are all entangled together, how can one be separated from the other.

If your majesty insisted on competing on this, it would be too stubborn.

Jiang Xiaohan saw that he was silent for a while, so he knew he was undecided.

Prince Gong is good at everything, has the ability to assist the government, and is willing to spare for Ning Yan, but sometimes this hesitation and over-cautiousness really make people unable to say anything good.

"Your Majesty is still young." Jiang Xiaohan could only pass the steps and said, "Maybe later—"

Before he finished speaking, there was a rush of footsteps outside the flower hall.Ning Huaijin looked sideways, and saw Jiang Ling was holding a food box in his hand, and pushed open the door of the flower hall.

"What's the matter, Brother Yan!" Jiang Ling said.

"It's becoming more and more unruly." Jiang Xiaohan narrowed his eyes slightly, and lightly reprimanded: "Didn't you see that I was meeting guests? And don't ask anyone to pass it on."

Jiang Ling was used to running around in the mansion before, but when he opened the door and saw Ning Huaijin was there, he was startled and blushed.

"Wang... Uncle Wang." Jiang Ling hurriedly said, "I didn't know you were here."

"It's okay." Ning Huaijin smiled gently, and turned her head to plead with Jiang Xiaohan for her: "Mingyuan doesn't have to be angry, the second girl has always been simple-minded, so it's better to be more at ease."

"I'm used to playing in Kunlun, and I can't change it when I come back." Jiang Xiaohan sighed helplessly, and asked, "What's the matter for coming here?"

Jiang Ling blinked, looked first at Ning Huaijin, then at his father, pursed his lips, and shook the snack box in his hand in embarrassment.

"I want to go and play with Brother Yan." Jiang Ling chuckled and said, "Anyway, today is the nineteenth, and my brother is fine in the palace. I happened to buy the Yunpian Cake from Chunqiu Tower, so I can go find them Eat the pot."

Because Jing Zhan was in the palace, Jiang Ling often went to the palace to play with Ning Yan, and Jiang Xiaohan usually didn't bother her much.

Jiang Xiaohan glanced at Ning Huaijin, and seeing that he had nothing to say, he nodded and said, "Don't play too late, come back with your brother at night."

Jiang Ling was immediately happy, cheered and was about to run out, but she just took a step, and before she could step out of the flower hall, Ning Huaijin suddenly stopped her.

"Second Miss, stop." Ning Huaijin said.

Seeing that Jiang Ling was about to hop and slip out, when he heard his call, he hurriedly grabbed the door frame and turned around, and said with difficulty: "Uncle Wang, what's the matter?"

"I have a letter here, please bring it to Your Majesty." Ning Huaijin said.

Jiang Xiaohan raised his eyebrows.

On the other hand, Jiang Ling blinked blankly and looked at Jiang Xiaohan.

Ning Huaijin didn't seem to have any intention of explaining. He stood up and asked Jiang Xiaohan politely: "Mingyuan, can I borrow the study room?"

Half a quarter of an hour later, the bewildered Second Miss Jiang walked out of the gate of the Jiang Mansion with a thin letter in her arms, forgetting even the food box.

On the other side of the palace city, Ning Yan was standing at the gate of Luoyun Palace, looking up at the plaque above.

Since Jiang Xuan entered the palace, He Wenting couldn't understand Ning Yan's thoughts more and more.He didn't seem to like Jiang Xuan, but he seemed to be unable to resist his instinct. He sent off the courtiers who were discussing matters with his front feet, and then turned around with his back feet.

Forget it, He Wenting thought happily, maybe this is a good thing.

Ning Yan looked at the name of the palace for a while, then lifted his foot and entered the door.

Originally, the palace had been vacant for a long time, and the courtyard between the main hall and the palace gate had become a wasteland, but the Ministry of Internal Affairs was very nimble, and within a day, it was full of flowers and plants.Let’s not talk about the model species, at least it’s lively when you look at it.

Ning Yan went straight to the main hall, and as soon as he got there, he bumped into Shu Qiuyu who came out of Jiang Xuan Palace.

Her face was a little haggard, her eyes were black and blue, she looked like she hadn't slept well.

Shu Qiuyu also saw him, walked up to him, saluted, and said, "Your Majesty."

"Yeah." Ning Yan looked her around and asked, "Why is Aiqing so haggard today?"

"I slept late last night and woke up with a headache." Shu Qiuyu lowered her head and said respectfully, "Your Majesty is worried."

I don't know if it was his illusion, but Ning Yan always felt that Shu Qiuyu's words seemed a little alienated today.He blinked, looked at the other party for a moment, found nothing wrong, so he didn't care, and asked casually: "By the way, what is Ai Qing doing here?"

"Jiang Zhaoyi has just moved into Luoyun Palace. It's very inconvenient. I came here to see if there are any deficiencies and deficiencies in her decorations and manpower, so I can make up for them one by one." Yi's stature, used to cut new clothes."

Ning Yan didn't understand these trifles, so it was fine after asking, so he nodded and didn't delve into it.

Seeing that he didn't ask any more questions, Shu Qiuyu silently saluted and withdrew.

Jiang Xuan, who was in the room, had heard the commotion outside, and came to greet him at the door.

She is still wearing a dull-colored shirt today, with a dark blue background, and two plum branches dotted on it, which looks a bit dull.

Ning Yan glanced around her inexplicably, his eyes stopped for a moment at the plum shadow on her cuff, he didn't say excuses, and he didn't help her, he went into the hall on his own.

Jiang Xuan was not angry, and knelt at the door for a while, then got up by herself, and followed into the hall.

Ning Yan didn't know who he was competing with, she didn't speak when she came in, she just glanced at her lightly, then took a sip of the tea He Wenting handed over, as if she didn't see this person.

Jiang Xuan was not surprised by his reaction. On the way she came to the capital, someone had already told her about Ning Yan's character and ways of doing things.So although she had never met Ning Yan, she still knew him a little bit.

So she didn't touch Ning Yan's bad luck, and rushed up rashly, but walked forward silently, and sat on the soft stool that Ning Yan started.

During the few steps she walked in, Ning Yan had been observing her—not only under the dim light, but also in daylight, Jiang Xuan's figure and demeanor were indeed exactly like Ning Huaijin's , it must have been trained by someone.

The person who taught her thought about every detail, not only could there be no flaws in the clothes, but even the spices on her body had other tricks.

When Jiang Xuan walked over, Ning Yan could smell the floral fragrance on her body, which seemed to be mixed with spices, and the taste was very similar to plum.

But man-made things are crude and crude, not as good as the fresh fragrance of flowers and plants, Ning Yan feels tired and flustered after smelling them.

Jiang Xuan couldn't look up at Ning Yan, so she couldn't guess his mind, so she could only wait.She sat on the chair and waited for a long time, her back was stiff, and finally waited for Ning Yan's first words to her.

"Turn around." Ning Yan said coldly, "Put on the veil."
