Prince Consort

Xie Ze'an was a little surprised when he saw Princess Yan Ning in the East Palace, but he didn't say much, and taught her like Zhao Chongzhao.

The days went by so peacefully.

Zhao Ying knew about Princess Yanning's visit to the East Palace a long time ago, so he asked Liang Jian about Xie Zean's usual performance.

Xie Ze'an was respectful to Liang Jian, but he didn't try to please him. Instead, he made Liang Jian take a high look at him.Liang Jian said, "Neither humble nor overbearing, that's fine."

Zhao Ying said: "Xie Ruogu was like this before he married Ah Man."

How many people can be number one in the world?There is only one out every three years.However, this person who has been selected by thousands of people cannot replace the one who has been dead for many years.

Liang Jian let out a cold chuckle: "How can fish eyes be misleading?"

Zhao Ying asked a little more clearly: "Then Xie Sanlang, is it a fish eye or a pearl?"

Liang Jian said, "Why don't you ask Yao Dingyan and Xu Juncheng?"

Zhao Ying paused, and realized that what she said was a bit redundant.The two most wise eyes of Chaozhong fell on Xie Ze'an, what else could he ask?

Zhao Ying could only ask other questions: "How does he treat others?"

Liang Jian thought of the daily laughter, paused, and said, "Excellent."

Xie Ze'an was able to get Liang Jian to say "excellent", Zhao Ying was really surprised.He wanted to ask something more, but Liang Jian looked impatient, as if he didn't want to continue talking.Zhao Ying waved her hand: "Thank you for your hard work, you can go back to Xie Mansion."

Liang Jian nodded and disappeared into the imperial study.

Liang Jian went back to Xie's mansion in silence, stayed in his room and was about to close his eyes to rest when he suddenly heard footsteps coming from the courtyard door.

Liang Jian ignored it. After a while, he suddenly heard a woman's voice outside: "Sanlang, your grandmother is looking for you."

Liang Jian was startled.

He will never forget this voice in his life!Although much younger, with a bit of tenderness, they sound very similar.

Xie Ze'an seldom made people worry, so he rarely saw people other than Xie Dalang and Xie Xiaomei come over during the half month he lived in Xie's residence.That day when Yao Dingyan came over, he appeared on purpose, so that Yao Dingyan would know that Xie Zean had fallen into Tianjia's eyes, and he would teach Xie Zean more carefully.

Judging from the woman's tone, Xie Ze'an's mother should have come in person?

Liang Jian clenched his fists, and finally walked out of Xie Zean's study quietly, and looked at Mrs. Li in the room from the window.

When he saw Li's facial features clearly, Liang Jian felt his world spinning and his heart throbbed.

Mrs. Lee looks very similar to his deceased wife!

At that time, he divided his troops and went south to deal with the turmoil in Jiaozhi, but did not participate in the tragic battle in the north.His wife and daughter were still in the north, and when he returned home after a great victory, he saw that his home had been reduced to scorched earth, and his wife and daughter had no bones left.

Liang Jian felt pain and resentment in his heart, but he didn't know who to blame.

Who would remember to protect his wife and children in such a time of turmoil?He could blame no one but himself for not taking his wife and children to the capital because he believed too blindly that Zhao Ying would never be defeated.

Counting his age, his daughter is indeed as old as Li Shi.

Is it possible, is it possible—

Liang Jian quickly jumped out of the courtyard wall and galloped on the long street. He kept running forward until he ran out of the moat outside the city gate before he raised his head and yelled loudly.

... Is it possible that his wife and children are not dead.

Or at least his daughter survived.

Liang Jian felt two lines of tears slid down his face, and he, who was over half a century old, started to cry uncontrollably.

If his daughter is not dead, if Li Shi is really his daughter, then he really wants to swallow Xie Qian alive.

But Xie Qian is the son-in-law.

The eldest princess didn't nod, even Zhao Ying couldn't help him.

Under the watchful eyes of the guards, Liang Jian collected his thoughts.

Mrs. Li's life in Xie's mansion is pretty good, Mrs. Xie looks fierce, but she never treats others harshly.Although Xie Jiyu was a little dazed, but when Xie Zean and Xie Xiaomei chatted, he was still a good husband.Under Zhao Ying's yin and yang mistakes, she found a good match for Li Shi.

Brother and sister Xie Zean and Xie Xiaomei are both filial, and they were taught very well by Mrs. Li.Xie Ze'an was also taught by two famous teachers, Yao Dingyan and Xu Juncheng, and his future is boundless.

When you think about it, this situation is pretty good.

At least the pain has come to an end.

Liang picked up Xie's mansion and did not stay in Xie Ze'an's courtyard, but stayed on the roof of the main house, listening to the daily conversation between Mrs. Li and Xie Jiyu.

Xie Dalang was the first to discover Liang Jian's abnormality, and he immediately told Xie Ze'an.

Xie Ze'an was slightly stunned, then shook his head and said, "Probably the princess or Your Majesty wants to find out something, let's leave it alone and talk to Father later."

Xie Dalang frowned, but still nodded.

Xie Ze'an sat at the stone table all night waiting for Liang to pick it up.

Liang Jian was a little surprised when he saw Xie Zean sitting there reading a book, but his face remained calm: "What's the matter?"

Xie Ze'an said, "I saw you that day."

Liang Jian asked, "What day?"

Xie Ze'an said: "The day when Auntie came to see me." He looked carefully at Liang Jian, "You seemed surprised when you saw Auntie, but I don't want to ask too many questions. But today Dalang has discovered that something is wrong with you, often Run to the main house."

Liang Jian said, "What do you want to ask?"

Xie Ze'an said: "I think either His Majesty and the others want you to investigate something, or...you know my aunt, or you know someone who looks very similar to my aunt!"

Liang Jian said, "You are really smart."

As it was related to the Li family, Xie Ze'an had to ask to the end: "What's going on?"

Liang Jian said, "I do know someone who looks like your mother."

Xie Ze'an raised his head and waited for Liang Jian to speak, but unexpectedly, he saw Liang Jian's expression changed, becoming softer than ever before.

He felt strange, and waited more quietly.

After a long time, Xie Ze'an heard Liang Jian say: "Your mother is very much like my deceased wife."

Xie Zean's heart skipped a beat.

Liang Jian said: "At that time I did not find the bodies of my wife and daughter." He looked at Xie Ze'an, "Your mother has neither father nor mother."

How clever Xie Zean was, he understood Liang Jian's meaning at once.He was really stunned for a moment, and asked nah-na: "That means you may be my... grandpa?"

The veins on Liang Jian's forehead twitched when he heard this name.

Liang Jian said, "Whether it is true or not, I'm not sure yet."

Xie Ze'an said: "If this is true, will you help my mother beat that Xie Qian up?"

After hearing Xie Ze'an's words, Liang Jian said with a sullen face, "No, he is also a son-in-law anyway."

Xie Ze'an said, "You can't even put on a sack?"

Liang Jian was not ashamed to ask: "What is a sack?"

Xie Ze'an said: "Just get a big sack, cover his head in a place where no one is around, and beat him into a pig's head with punches and kicks! Get rid of it, and hide your achievements and fame!"

Liang Jian said: "That's a good idea." After he finished speaking, he suddenly felt something was wrong, and hit Xie Zean hard on the head, "Who taught you such a dirty way? It's not a gentleman's job to beat someone secretly! It's okay. Clothes to hide merit and fame, what is in your head?"

Xie Ze'an held his head in pain: "I'm not a gentleman..."

Seeing that Xie Ze'an was still eloquent, Liang Jian was very happy: "I really don't know how Yao Dingyan and Xu Juncheng taught you."

Xie Ze'an had to mention two teachers to defend: "Why should they teach such trivial things? I am so talented and self-taught... Then what, do you really not consider using that Xie Qian sack?"

Liang Jian glared at him.

Xie Ze'an immediately became well-behaved and peaceful.

Knowing that Liang Jian was "possibly" his "grandfather", Xie Ze'an immediately relaxed a lot, ran back to the study with short legs and made a list, and ran to knock on the door of Liang Jian's room with a shy face.

For Xie Ze'an's behavior of pushing his nose and face, Liang Jian felt angry and funny, but he was inexplicably happy in his heart.

If he really had a grandson, he would probably be as bold as Xie Zean to stroke the tiger's hair, right?

Liang Jian neither agreed nor refused, and silently put the list given by Xie Zean into his sleeve.

Early the next morning, Xie Ze'an saw that all the files he wanted were piled up on his desk.

Xie Ze'an smiled and narrowed his eyes.

Regardless of whether this matter is true or false, it will be much more convenient for him to ask Liang Jian to do things in the future, right?And if it is true, Mrs. Li will definitely be very happy.

Xie Ze'an's happy mood remained the same when he met Princess Yan Ning when people were in good spirits on happy occasions.

Zhao Chongzhao is a rough person, how can he find Xie Zean's difference?Princess Yan Ning was different, she saw a smile in Xie Zean's eyes at a glance.

Princess Yan Ning took advantage of Zhao Chongzhao's departure and asked, "Did Sanlang encounter any happy things?"

Xie Ze'an is not someone who can't control his mouth, he will not speak out until Liang Jian confirms.Although Liang Jian was sent by Princess Yan Ning, he could tell from Princess Yan Ning's bewildered expression that she didn't know anything about it.

Liang Jian must have his reasons for not telling Princess Yan Ning, so Xie Ze'an did not confess, but said: "My mother and my father are getting better and better. I reckon they should give me a younger brother."

Princess Yan Ning was slightly surprised when she heard this reason, but she did not doubt Xie Ze'an's words."That's a really good thing," she said.

Xie Ze'an changed the subject: "His Royal Highness will not be back for a while, why don't I draw a portrait of you, His Highness."

Princess Yan Ning was startled, but she still nodded.

Xie Ze'an spread out the paper with a smile, and began to draw on Princess Yanning.

Halfway through the painting, Zhao Chongzhao came back.He saw that Xie Zean was painting Princess Yanning, and said very displeasedly: "Sanlang, you didn't even paint me!"

Xie Ze'an glanced at Zhao Chongzhao, and said quietly: "I'm afraid the paper is not big enough."

Zhao Chongzhao said, "Why is the paper not big enough?"

Xie Ze'an said: "The paper is not big enough to hold His Highness's heroic figure."

Zhao Chongzhao: "..."
