male princess
Chapter 40
I do it myself, and I can't do it well.Spend more time when you have time
I. "Xi Yincang let go of his hand and muttered
"Well, good. Yin Cang, Fat Tuan'er is so small, why do you always act like a child, a majestic prince, don't be ashamed. Hehehe" Zhi Luo asked the nanny to tidy up and carried Fattuan down, hugging Xi Yincang said with a smirk.
Xi Yincang bit him on the neck in a muffled voice, and cursed: "I regret it a little bit, now you are full of fat lumps in your eyes and hearts, you change your mind when you see something different, you always give up, you have no conscience."
Zhi Luo rolled his eyes at him: "Don't you like him too? How nice and simple a child is. But, in my heart, you will always be number one."
Only then was Xi Yincang satisfied, and couldn't help being intimate again.
Zhi Luo was satisfied and fulfilled. He felt that now that he had Xi Yincang and Fat Tuan'er, although the future would still be dangerous, he only believed in Xi Yincang, and believed that no matter what happened, they would be able to work together. Walking over, he thought to himself that he must become stronger, because now he has something he wants to protect with his life.
Zhi Luo's consciousness slowly became a little blurred, and his eyelids were a little heavy. After all, his body hadn't fully recovered yet. He felt that he was hugged and put on the bed by Xi Yincang, and his face was warm and wet being licked by Xi Yincang. Unable to bear it any longer, he fell into a deep sleep.
Ming Jin followed Fang Ziyi to the south and went south for more than three months. Finally, when winter was about to enter, everything was arranged, the victims were arranged, and the corrupt officials were rectified. After handing it over to the local officials, he set off for Beijing.
He went back to the Hou's mansion directly, and waited for the next morning to return to the court with Fang Ziyi.Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yan Mingjin gained a small reputation both in the court and among the people.
What he didn't expect was that when he returned to the mansion, Yan Xiaoru actually came over, and even ordered the housekeeper Shi Rui to arrange a banquet to welcome him.Ming Jin secretly smiled inwardly, with a submissive and calm look on his face.The wine table was full of people from the Hou's mansion, Mrs. Yu has gradually recovered in the past few months, and her complexion has improved.Zhixi and Zhishan were also sitting together, as well as Minglei.Since Mingxuan had an accident, he hadn't been out of the yard very much. Everyone knew it in their hearts, and no one mentioned it.
Yan Xiaoru first asked a few things about the south, and Ming Jin did not hesitate, and explained one by one, what is the situation and how to solve it.When Yan Xiaoru heard this, he couldn't help praising him: This son is really not a thing in the pool, alas, he can't tell what it feels like.I also explained a few words that need to be paid attention to when going up to face the saint, so I won't say more.
Yu's somewhat taboo towards Ming Jin, and she doesn't know whether she hates or is afraid. In short, in front of Ming Jin, she always feels uncomfortable and can't settle down.With a smile on her face, she picked up some food for him: "I've been out for so long, I'm afraid I'm tired and suffering outside, so eat more."
Ming Jin glanced at her and smiled faintly: "Thank you Madam, is Madam safe?"
Yu Shi's body froze slightly, and there was something strange on his face, he twitched the corners of his mouth and said with a smile:
"Well, it's better. I'm old and I can't stand stimulation. I was just sad for Xuan'er at that time, and that's why... oh!"
Ming Jin picked up the wine glass and raised her head to take a drink: "It's inevitable, that mother didn't feel sorry for her son. At the beginning, my mother was unhappy because of the matter with my elder brother and hurt her body." Ming Jin didn't look at her anymore. Yu Shi, with no emotion in his voice, picked up the jug and poured Yan Xiaoru another glass.
Yu Shi shook his hand holding the chopsticks, and the dish he picked up fell onto the table.
"Ahem! Don't mention the past. It will be fine in the future. I am old, and this will be your world from now on." Yan Xiaoru frowned and sighed, knowing that he was left out in the cold Jin's mother doted on Shi Yu, which made Ming Jin and Zhi Luo resent him deeply, and naturally disliked Shi Yu. Seeing what Ming Jin said, she coughed and wanted to change the subject, but couldn't find it. nothing to say.He didn't expect that Mrs. Yu was thinking of something else.
Zhixi seized the opportunity, rolled her eyes, concealed the schadenfreude in her eyes, and said in a worried tone: "Second brother is not at the mansion recently, maybe he didn't know when he just came back. Eldest sister had an accident in the palace..." She Before he finished speaking, Ming Jin looked over, his heart tightened inexplicably, and his voice became lower and lower.
Ming Jin's originally calm face turned cold, and he looked straight at Zhi Xi: "What happened to Luo'er?"
Zhixi clenched her palms secretly, swallowed her saliva, did not dare to look at Mingjin, and then said: "It is said that the prince dotes on the eldest sister, but this doting is only for a while. After you left, I heard that a woman was picked up The one who is pregnant is favored by the prince outside, just gave birth to a son a month ago, and the old princes, concubines, and princes in the house are very fond of it. It is also discussed in the capital."
"That's right, there are all kinds of things in the capital now. The eldest sister has been married for less than a year, but now there is a woman outside who has given birth to the prince's child, and even the Hou Mansion has lost face." Zhishan is stupid, listening to Zhishan When Xi talked about this matter, she couldn't hold back immediately, and took up the conversation in a strange way, but she didn't see Ming Jin's dark and handsome face.
Yan Xiaoru snorted coldly, and reprimanded the two of them: "It's all rumors from outside, why are you fooling around like this?" He turned his head and looked at Mingjin again: "The prince has a noble status, he has three wives and four concubines. It's normal." He actually hoped that there would be some rift between Ming Jin and Xi Yincang, but anyway, it's better for Ming Jin and Fang Ziyi to remain neutral than to be too close to Xi Yincang.Although Xi Yincang is also neutral on the face and only loyal to the emperor, but who does not know that he and the second prince have been together since childhood and have a good relationship.
Ming Jin calmed down a little, remained unmoved on the face, continued to eat, and stopped taking care of the two women.Zhixi and Zhishan were a little embarrassed, feeling uncomfortable.
After Ming Jin finished dealing with Yan Xiaoru, he went back to the yard. Mo Xuan waited on him to clean up and changed his clothes. Then he called Si Yi in. He sat in a chair casually wearing a thick black cannonball and asked : "What's going on with the third young master?
? ”
The boy named Si Yi hurriedly reported the news from the pavilion. He stuttered and spoke clearly, telling about Zhiluo and Xi Yincang falling off the cliff, falling into a gu, and Xiaodouding who suddenly appeared. out.I couldn't help but feel a little anxious, as soon as the master left, so many things happened to the third young master. Alas, fortunately, the third young master is fine now, otherwise the guardian Chiyan might suffer.Moreover, the news about the woman and the child from Guardian Chiyan is not very clear, and I don't know if they are Xi Yincang's seed. I only know that they were brought back by Xi Yincang. It's just that after giving birth, The person disappeared, and I don't know where he was sent.
Ming Jin frowned, and waved Si Yi back.Si Yi couldn't wait to leave quickly, so he quickly bowed and saluted, then turned and left in a hurry.
Mo Xuan looked at Ming Jin, went over to a cup of tea, and asked in a low voice: "Master, do you want to go to the palace?"
Ming Jin didn't say a word, as if he was thinking about something, he sighed after a long time, stood up and walked to the inner room: "No, we'll talk about it after seeing the emperor tomorrow." Ming Jin took off the robe he was wearing and handed it to Mo Xuan Li: "You've been exhausted these days, so go to bed early today."
"Well, Xuan'er is not tired, and Xuan'er is the happiest to be able to help the master." Mo Xuan blinked his bright eyes, his face full of satisfaction.
A rare faint smile appeared on Ming Jin's cold face: "Stop being coquettish, go down."
☆, Wangfu visit
The emperor was very satisfied with Fang Ziyi and Ming Jin's going south this time, and praised him greatly in the court, and many rewards were unavoidable. Fang Ziyi was already an important member of the court at a young age, but he did not increase his official status. The prime minister also meant that I don't approve of my son being too ostentatious.As for Yan Mingjin, who was unknown before, but now he has made great contributions and is temporarily in the spotlight. However, the emperor unexpectedly only gave him a sixth-rank idle position. Fang's forces are vying for useful talents both openly and secretly. Although this Yan Mingjin has a taste of being born out of nowhere, it can be seen from his recovery from his illness to his return from going south that he is not a simple person. Everyone can't guess the emperor's arrangement. What is the intention? The people who originally wanted to win over inevitably hesitated and took a wait-and-see attitude.
Ming Jin's face was calm and composed, thanking the emperor for his kindness, without any mood swings or changes in his face.He didn't expect to gain power so smoothly, although he couldn't figure out what the emperor was thinking, but he was not in a hurry.Now he just wants to go to court, and take the opportunity to ask Xi Yincang about Zhiluo.
Finally, when he retired from court, Ming Jin turned around and left the hall. Xi Yincang was called by the emperor to the study to discuss matters. He wanted to go directly to see Zhi Luo, but he didn't want to be stopped by Fang Ziyi just after walking a few steps.
"Mingjin, now that the matter is finally resolved, go to my place tonight and have a drink to celebrate you. Although it is an idle job, I believe that with your talent, you will definitely have the opportunity to serve the country. Father also appreciates you Well, I want to meet you." Fang Ziyi smiled sincerely and happily.
Ming Jin thought for a while and said: "Thanks to Brother Fang's love for Ming Jin, today is the only way. If that's the case, I'm not welcome, I will definitely pass by tonight."
"Haha, good." Fang Ziyi laughed out loud, turned and left.
In the imperial study room, the emperor flipped through the mountains of memorials on the table, while Xi Yincang quietly stood aside.The emperor didn't even look up, and asked in a low voice while watching, "What do you think of Yan Mingjin?"
Xi Yincang thought for a while and replied: "He is a rare talent."
"Oh? I heard that he was stupid before, and he didn't recover for long. Hehehe, it's very interesting." The emperor closed a book with a stroke of his pen and walked, looked up at Xi Yincang, and pointed to the opposite chair Said: "Sit down."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xi Yincang sat down according to his words: "The stupidity before was just a rumor, and no one knows exactly what happened. There are inevitably some unknown things."
The emperor nodded: "You are cunning. Of course I understand this. I came here with your father in the same way. In the blink of an eye, we are all old." The emperor picked up the tea cup, took a sip of the fragrant tea, and continued : "Do you know why I don't reuse him?"
Xi Yincang didn't know what the emperor was thinking, nor what the emperor was looking for him for, so he could only reply: "Does the emperor still want to observe him?"
"This is one of the reasons." The old emperor said, his face raised
Feeling a little tired: "Although I'm old, I know in my heart, Cang'er, I heard that Yan Mingjin and your concubine are brothers and sisters, and they have a deep relationship. How is your relationship with Yan Mingjin?"
"I have met him a few times, and I admire him very much. It would be best if he can serve the emperor." Xi Yincang replied calmly.
The emperor raised his eyebrows: "Oh? I'm very happy if you think so. I heard that you once recommended him for Hao Ting."
Xi Yincang was a little surprised, the emperor is indeed the emperor, these things can't be hidden, he quickly restrained his mind: "Yes, I met once, the second prince also appreciates his ability, and wants him to work for the court. But Ming Jin He didn't express his opinion, but later on he made friends with Master Fang Ziyi."
The old emperor sighed and leaned back on the chair: "I know that you and Hao Ting are on good terms, and I understand Hao Ting's behavior, but his temper is a bit too gentle and his heart is too soft, just like his mother and concubine .”
Xi Yincang did not expect that the emperor would say these words to him directly. Does the emperor mean that he does not want the second prince to inherit the throne as the prince in the future?Still, there is another purpose.He didn't dare to think too much. He looked at the old emperor sitting on the chair. Although he looked much older than he actually was due to working day and night, the wisdom in his eyes remained undiminished. Wisdom down.Xi Yincang bowed slightly and said: "I believe in the character and ability of the second prince, so I support him in my heart. But Yincang knows the measure in his heart and understands his own responsibilities, so he will definitely not overstep."
The old emperor seemed very satisfied, and nodded again: "I also watched you grow up, I just admire you for this, just like your father, you are upright, what can you say. I am very pleased with what you said, you can do this Said that I naturally know your mind." The old emperor paused: "Although I don't want to, some things in the emperor's house have been inevitable since ancient times, and many of them are unexpected or even unacceptable to you. For this, what is the matter? Anything can happen. Cang'er, don't let me down."
Xi Yincang got up quickly and knelt in front of the emperor: "Yincang inherits his father's duties and will swear allegiance to the emperor to the death."
"Well, nothing else, let's go down. Hehe."
"Yes, I understand."
Xi Yincang turned around and left the imperial study room, his mind was full of thoughts. It seems that the final crown prince depends on the second prince's own ability. Compared with the third prince, he is indeed too soft-hearted. He must be able to become a benevolent king, but There is no room for any hesitation and intolerance in this road of fighting for the crown. Which emperor did not ascend the throne through bloodshed.
Ming Jin went out of the palace, and did not rush back to the Hou's Mansion, but went directly to Dinghui Prince's Mansion, and went to the gate of the Palace openly, asking Mo Xuan to report.On the way here, he also heard some rumors, and thought, this is good, he has a good reason to come and see his "sister"
The butler greeted him personally, and led Ming Jing to the main courtyard.Xi Yincang hasn't returned to the mansion yet, but the butler knows that Ming Jin has a close relationship with the princess, and he is not the same as before.
The third young lady who came was different, so naturally she didn't dare to neglect her.
Ming Jin entered the front hall of the main courtyard, Ying'er had already received the letter, brewed fragrant tea and served it.Ming Jin faced the saint today, and he no longer wore a dark robe like usual. He was dressed in royal blue brocade clothes, with a jade pendant hanging from his waist, and his hair was neatly tied up in a bun and the jade crown was fastened. He looked less cold More expensive.He sat there indifferently, and just as he sat firmly, he heard footsteps coming from inside.
"Second brother." Zhiluo arrived before the voice came, and as soon as the voice fell, his figure appeared behind the screen.Zhi Luo was just finishing feeding Fat Tuan'er, hugging him and playing around in the room, waiting for Xi Yincang to come back.Fat Tuan'er has already reached the full moon, and he has been raised fat and fat, and is developing in the direction of Fat Tuan'er, worthy of the name.When he heard that Ming Jin was coming, he was overjoyed, wrapped Fat Tuan'er in a small quilt, and came to the front hall.
Ming Jin got up and turned her head, stared blankly for a moment, watching Zhi Luo come out with a doll in her arms, although she had heard about it before, it was still a bit strange to see Zhi Luo like this all of a sudden.He was not in a hurry to speak, and took a closer look at Zhi Luo, seeing that he looked good, but he was a little thinner, so he felt relieved.He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, the movement was very small, but his whole face became much softer because of this movement: "It's only been more than three months, and I've lost weight again. What did Xi Yincang do? This is still left outside Planted? Hmph!"
"Second brother, don't listen to the nonsense outside, Yin Cang treats me very well." Zhi Luo smiled, he was very happy that the second brother cared about him so much, but seeing Yin Cang being misunderstood, he immediately put in good words for him: "There's something wrong with this matter, don't blame him, I'll tell you later. Look, this is Fat Tuan'er, isn't it cute?" Zhi Luo approached Ming Jin with Fat Tuan'er in his arms, and lifted the small cap on his head. A corner of the quilt revealed his white and tender face: "Fat Tuan'er, uncle is here to see you."
Fat Tuan'er opened his mouth, said yes and ah twice, looked at the unfamiliar face in front of him, and was not afraid of strangers, his black eyes were flickering, and the elves were cute.
Ming Jin looked at the little guy, then at Zhi Luo's expression of offering treasures, and shook his head helplessly.Immediately there was a big smile on his face, just like Zhi Luo, he stretched out his arms to hug Fat Tuan'er: "Come on, Fat Tuan'er, let uncle hug you."
Zhi Luo blinked, um, is this man his second brother?
Mo Xuan on the side was dumbfounded long ago, staring at Ming Jin without blinking, then pouted his rosy mouth aggrieved, feeling overwhelmed.
"Not as cute as you were when you were young, ha ha." Ming Jin gently pinched Fat Tuan'er's face, said to Zhi Luo, and then frowned again: "I heard about you being poisoned and hunted down. , what happened, if this is the case, why don't I let Chi Yan take you out of here?"
Zhi Luo didn't expect him to mention this suddenly, she wanted to shake her head and refuse, but she was a little tangled in her heart: "I, I..."
"That's what I planned at the beginning, but I wasn't ready. I just took over Xiaoyao Pavilion and my strength was not stable, so you were married into the palace. I don't want you to be involved in the battle between the court and the court. Now I
Overtly and secretly, the foundation is gradually stabilizing, Luo'er, my brother can protect you, and my brother will make up for you for the grievances you suffered in the past. "
Zhi Luo smiled lightly: "Second brother, it's not your fault whether you compensate or not. Whether it was before or now, I have never blamed anyone for all of this. No matter what you do, I believe in you because you are my second brother. I feel very happy now. I have Yin Cang who loves me, you love me, Fat Tuaner, and many people in the palace care about me. Extravagant demands, I dare not have any grievances, I am just, just uneasy, not afraid of what will happen in the future, but afraid that I will be too incompetent and drag you down, because I am afraid that all this is just passing by, I am selfish, greedy, willful Well, I know I'm a burden, but I can't bear it, I can't bear to let it go, and leave..." Zhi Luo said, his face was a little sad, he shook his head and smiled bitterly. With such a knot, he believed in Xi Yincang's sincerity, and agreed to live and die with him, but the more this happened, the more entangled he became. He was afraid that Xi Yincang would be hurt because of himself. The emotions can no longer be suppressed.
Ming Jin's eyes became softer, he turned around and handed the fat tuan'er to Ying'er, Ying'er thought it was interesting, and carried the child inside to find a nanny.Ming Jin put his arm on Zhi Luo's shoulder lightly, and said in a low voice: "Fool, you are always like this, you only care about others, and you never complain about anyone. Luo'er, don't think so, you are being hurt and pampered , This is all as it should be, you have such rights, don't feel uneasy, you are not a burden, not a burden. At least for the second brother, Luoer is the support and sustenance of the second brother. After the mother passed away, if there is no You, the second brother who has been suffering for so many years, can't hold on at all."
Mo Xuan silently pursed the corners of his lips. He knew the suffering of the master, so when the master trained himself, no matter how difficult it was, he endured the silence. It was also at that time that he felt distressed. , he made up his mind that he must learn the skills and protect his master. Although he still can't beat him now, he will always be with him.
Zhi Luo was not a sentimental person, and now Ming Jin raised it to vent, and after listening to Ming Jin's comfort, she felt better.He always doesn't think about things when he can't think of a way out.Zhi Luo raised her head and said, "Second brother, I don't want to leave in my heart, I know I'm a little headstrong like this, but I don't want to part with it."
Ming Jin looked at him, nodded, and then said: "Actually, I don't want to do that either. I'd rather put you by my side and watch at ease."
"Where do you want to put my concubine?" Xi Yincang heard Ming Jin's words as soon as he came in, feeling upset, so he walked two steps quickly to Zhi Luo's side, and pulled her over.
Zhi Luo raised her head: "Yin Cang, are you back? Why is it so late today?"
Xi Yincang looked at his red eyes, frowned, and instead of answering his question, asked, "What's wrong?"
Ming Jin took a look.
Ming Jin raised his eyebrows and snorted: "Is it because of you? How did you promise me? I told you at the beginning that if there is anything wrong with Luo, I will take him away. Do you think I'm in the south, so I don't know anything?"
"I know you're still asking, didn't you send your guardian to follow you secretly after you left? Luo'er is fine now, and I will use my life to protect him and let him leave, that's impossible." Xi Yin Cang took Zhi Luo's hand and looked at Ming Jin resolutely.
Zhi Luo felt a little helpless and warm in her heart, knowing that the two of them did this because they cared about themselves.He stood between the two of them and persuaded: "Okay, Yincang, second brother, don't do this. I'm fine, I'm fine. Second brother, didn't I say that, these are not about Yincang's business, everything Blame me."
Xi Yincang and Mingjin looked at each other for a long time, and then said: "I know what's in my heart, don't worry. Besides, it's the same for you, Luo'er can't stop following you. Wherever you put him, others can find him if they want to." Got it. As long as the situation in the court is settled, I will quit everything and take Luo'er and Fat Tuan'er to live a normal life."
Hearing this, Ming Jin suddenly laughed at himself: "Hehe, yes. After all, I am too ambitious. If I had given up all of this from the beginning, I would have been able to live a clean life with Luo'er by now. day."
"Second brother, don't be stupid. If you don't argue, if others don't think so, you will still die. Don't think too much about it. Some things are preordained, mother-in-law." Zhi Luo shook his head helplessly. Believe it, but he can travel through, what else can't happen.Now when I occasionally think of all this, I still think it is a dream, wondering if I will wake up one day, and I will actually be lying on my stomach in front of the computer in my small room.
The two listened and looked at each other with a smile. Who are the two of them?Xi Yincang turned his head to call for someone, and said to Ming Jin: "Master Yan rarely comes to the palace, how about having a drink together."
Ming Jin smiled lightly, calmly and gracefully: "I'll stay with Luo'er for a while longer. Meals are fine, but wine is free. I have an appointment with Fang Ziyi tonight."
Zhi Luo couldn't help but rolled her eyes: "You two just pretend, there's no one else here. Mo Xuan, stop standing on the side, come and sit together." Zhi Luo ignored the two of them and went to the side to pull that A handsome young man who has never said a word.
Some embarrassment appeared on Mo Xuan's serious and deep face, and he raised his eyes to look at his master.Ming Jin looked at Mo Xuan, and suddenly smiled: "Xuan'er, there is no one else, come here." Ming Jin remembered that Mo Xuan followed her when she was a child, and when she was in the most difficult and difficult times, the child would not say a word Caring for and admiring himself in his own way, he actually loves him in his heart, but because of his unwillingness and plans, he has often wronged him on weekdays, now looking at Xi Yincang and Luo'er, he can't help but Soft and distressed.
Mo Xuan was a little surprised on his face. Seeing the master's suddenly gentle eyes, it was as if fireworks exploded in his heart, and he stood there in a daze, without any reaction.Zhi Luo rolled his eyes, but he had heard Xi Yincang talk about the relationship between the two, so he pushed Mo Xuan and smiled and said, "What are you doing in a daze?" While talking, he pulled Mo Xuan to let him sit Leaving Mingjin beside him, he said: "Second brother, don't be so serious at ordinary times. You look at the child and are afraid of you. If two people are together, what's the fun in this way? Yincang, don't you think so?" ?”
Mo Xuan's small face turned red immediately: "Third young master, master, the master is very good, Xuan'er, I'm not afraid of the master."
"Oh? Not afraid? What is that?" Zhi Luo chuckled, deliberately teasing Mo Xuan.
Mo Xuan looked at Ming Jin, then at Zhi Luo, na na said: "Yes... yes..." After a long time, he didn't say anything, his face was even more embarrassing.
Ming Jin gently embraced Mo Xuan: "Okay, I know what it is. The third young master deliberately teased you."
Mo Xuan turned his head to look at Ming Jin, his eyes were sparkling, and his face was full of joy and satisfaction.Ming Jin's heart was peaceful and warm, and he suddenly discovered that, like Xi Yincang, he had someone who he wanted to cherish and take care of, unlike Dui Luo'er, or he already knew about it.
☆、Learn Kung Fu
After a while, Steward Lin led his servants, served the food and wine, and obeyed his orders, they all left, leaving only four people in the hall.
Zhi Luo was naturally very happy, Ming Jin had been there for more than three months, he was thinking about it, and now he was relieved, Mo Xuan always listened to orders and did not worry about messy things, at this time no one else relaxed and followed Zhi Fall, two people have a big meal.Zhi Luo poured him a glass of wine, and Mo Xuan quickly shook his head: "You can't drink."
"Oh, I'm happy today, and I have nothing to do, drink a little, what are you afraid of?" Zhi Luo raised his head and took a drink.
Ming Jin saw Mo Xuan looking at himself with small eyes, and nodded slightly: "Don't drink too much."
Mo Xuan was overjoyed, he felt that the master had become a different person today, he became very gentle, so, is he pampering himself?He picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and squinted his eyes.
Xi Yincang and Mingjin watched the two of them eating and drinking happily, so they stopped caring about them.Ming Jin glanced at Xi Yincang indifferently, and said softly: "The emperor left you because of me, right?"
"Half." Xi Yincang picked up a dish for Zhiluo, put down his chopsticks, and looked at Mingjin with a half-smile: "The emperor's intention is obvious. But didn't you decide a long time ago? Are you related to your father?" Well, I helped you. Otherwise, I would definitely think that you belong to the third prince and want to win over the prime minister."
Ming Jin smiled slightly: "Who is the prime minister? Naturally, the emperor can trust it. I think the third prince is now smarter and no longer acts rashly. Hmph! But, no one knows what will happen in the end."
"What do you think?" Xi Yincang recalled what the emperor had said to him.
Ming Jin looked at him and said: "Although your heart is for the second prince, but now for Luo'er, you'd better put on a straight posture. I don't need to say what your identity is. The second prince is kind, has great ambitions, and cares about the world. But He is too soft-hearted. Since ancient times, there has been no emperor who has not been fighting with each other and bloody all the way to the top. As for the third prince, I don't care how capable he is. Him. He thinks that I am like him, that I don't care about anything for the sake of profit, I don't know what he and Yan Xiaoru are up to. Hmph!"
Xi Yincang raised his brows slightly: "Hehe, you can see clearly. My father reminded me when I took over the power. I can do what the second prince can do. As for the final result, naturally it depends on him. , if he can't be ruthless all the time, hey! I'm afraid I'm powerless if I want to."
"You never thought that if the third prince came to the throne in the future, how could there be a way out for you? He is not like the current emperor." Ming Jin raised the corners of his lips, and drank a glass of wine with his head raised.
Xi Yincang raised his lips and smiled: "Could it be that I, Xi Yincang, do whatever others want?"
Xi Yincang and Ming Jin were talking about serious business, but one of them didn't pay attention, and Zhi Luo and Mo Xuan drank a few more drinks, and the two of them became a little bit drunk.Ming Jin thought about seeing the prime minister at night, so he didn't stay too long, and pulled Mo Xuan away.Mo Xuan
His footsteps were a bit flimsy. He heard what Ming Jin said, and he never drank at all, because Ming Jin said that drinking was a mistake and he was not allowed to drink.Now he only felt that his body was a little light, and he followed Mingjin unsteadily, feeling a little uneasy in his heart, knowing how many drinks he had had, he rubbed his head vigorously, afraid that Mingjin would scold him, so he opened his eyes, Follow Ming Jin out of the house.
Ming Jin looked back at him, stretched out his hand to bring him to his side, and helped him into the carriage.
Mo Xuan only felt his eyelids sink for a while, and his body swayed when the carriage moved.Mo Xuan sat up straight with a jolt: "Master."
Mingjin knew that he was used to being a killer before, so he kept his vigilance, looked at his slightly flushed face, rubbed his head: "Xuan'er, it's fine. If you're tired, sleep for a while."
Hearing this, Mo Xuan seemed to be relieved, his body softened again, his eyelids drooped, and he lay down in Ming Jin's arms: "Master, Xuan'er will protect you."
"Well, good." Ming Jin showed a rare tenderness in his eyes, gently stroked Mo Xuan's hair, and unconsciously reappeared his childhood appearance in his head, "Xuan'er, I might, I will find a way to marry the prime minister Daughter, Xuan'er, do you blame me?"
Mo Xuan raised his head slightly, his eyes were a little confused, he smiled sweetly: "No, didn't the master say that those are all fake, and the master belongs to Xuan'er alone. Xuan'er believes in the master, Xuan'er Will always be with the master."
Mingjin smiled softly, and hugged her tightly in his arms: "Well, Xuan'er is good. Xuan'er, those are all fake, even if I marry her, I will only love Xuan'er in the future."
"Oh!" Xuan'er buried her head in Mingjin's arms and fell asleep.
Compared with Mo Xuan, Zhi Luo's alcohol capacity is considered good, and the drinker is a little excited, but not drunk.He went back to the room, Fat Tuan'er just woke up from a nap, crying.The nurse is hugging and coaxing him.Zhi Luo reached out to pick it up, went to the bed and took the little bell for the little guy to play with, and while coaxing the fat group, asked Xi Yincang: "Come here and smell it, is the wine smell strong? Will it smoke you?" To the fat group?"
"What are you afraid of? Fat Tuan'er is a boy, and he also drinks when he grows up." Xi Yincang said as he leaned over and sniffed it vigorously, "Hehe, it's fragrant, mixed with the smell of sweet-scented osmanthus."
As soon as Fat Tuan'er arrived in Zhiluo's arms, he calmed down, it was like this every time, and Zhiluo was proud of this for a long time.At this moment, the little thing stopped crying, Yiyi babbled, stretched out meaty claws from the quilt to play with the bell.Seeing Fat Tuan'er obediently, Zhi Luo asked the nanny to go down and rest.He turned his head to look at Xi Yincang and asked: "Yincang, do you think the second prince can be ruthless? If he loses, what will happen to Liu Wanyi and the child in her belly?"
Xi Yincang shifted his eyes from Fat Tuan'er's face to Zhi Luo's face: "Think you know how to eat?"
Zhi Luo pouted, and said, "Don't I need to take care of myself? Yin Cang, I will grow up, and I want to help you."
"Hehe, okay, help me first tonight." Xi Yincang smiled brilliantly,
Just beautiful, when there was a pain in the waist, Zhi Luo stretched out his hand and grabbed the tender flesh: "Oh, take it easy, you are really willing."
Zhi Luo let go of her hand, rubbed him again, and said, "I'm telling you the truth. Hey, tell me, if you want to be in the top position, brother-in-law will inevitably kill each other. If you don't take the top position, you will die in the end. Liu Wanyi is now With the dragon species, the third prince has been quiet for a while, so he has some plans, right? I'm always worried, will he have ideas on that child? Maybe it's because of Fat Tuan'er, I always have this kind of Feel."
Xi Yincang teased Fat Tuan'er with a small bell, and after hearing Zhi Luo's words, he pushed his head against his head and said, "Whoever makes him the prince is inevitable. If he wants to protect their mother and child well, he You have to make up your mind. The third prince's idea of attacking the royal guards had failed repeatedly, and he didn't dare to make any big moves. After all, the emperor was a little alarmed before. The more he doesn't move, the more dangerous he is. They are cultivating their own people in secret."
"You mean, he wants to find an opportunity to rebel?" Zhi Luo was a little surprised, even if he had his own people, without the military power in his hands, it was not easy to rebel.
Xi Yincang shook his head: "I don't know how to do it now, he has no military power, but General Qi is not so easy to talk to, he has always been a loyal and upright person. The imperial guards are in the hands of the emperor, and the other half of the military power is in General Zuo In his hand, he has been guarding the frontier."
Zhi Luo listened and nodded: "The emperor is still the most powerful, important people are in charge. You have that thing in your hand, will the emperor have any taboos?"
"No, don't worry. I've confessed my feelings to the emperor." Xi Yincang rubbed his head.
"Ah, ah..." Fat Tuan'er twisted her body, a little impatient.Zhi Luo shook his hands in a hurry, and stopped talking to Xi Yincang, he smiled and looked at the little guy and coaxed: "Oh, Fat Tuan'er is not happy to be left out in the cold, hehe, mother is here to talk to you." Said He frowned and looked at Xi Yincang again: "Yincang, I still feel awkward when Fat Tuaner calls my mother."
Xi Yincang was happy, took over the fat tuan'er from Zhiluo, lowered his head and kissed Zhiluo with a smile and said, "What's awkward? I usually see you standing up when I hurt you."
I. "Xi Yincang let go of his hand and muttered
"Well, good. Yin Cang, Fat Tuan'er is so small, why do you always act like a child, a majestic prince, don't be ashamed. Hehehe" Zhi Luo asked the nanny to tidy up and carried Fattuan down, hugging Xi Yincang said with a smirk.
Xi Yincang bit him on the neck in a muffled voice, and cursed: "I regret it a little bit, now you are full of fat lumps in your eyes and hearts, you change your mind when you see something different, you always give up, you have no conscience."
Zhi Luo rolled his eyes at him: "Don't you like him too? How nice and simple a child is. But, in my heart, you will always be number one."
Only then was Xi Yincang satisfied, and couldn't help being intimate again.
Zhi Luo was satisfied and fulfilled. He felt that now that he had Xi Yincang and Fat Tuan'er, although the future would still be dangerous, he only believed in Xi Yincang, and believed that no matter what happened, they would be able to work together. Walking over, he thought to himself that he must become stronger, because now he has something he wants to protect with his life.
Zhi Luo's consciousness slowly became a little blurred, and his eyelids were a little heavy. After all, his body hadn't fully recovered yet. He felt that he was hugged and put on the bed by Xi Yincang, and his face was warm and wet being licked by Xi Yincang. Unable to bear it any longer, he fell into a deep sleep.
Ming Jin followed Fang Ziyi to the south and went south for more than three months. Finally, when winter was about to enter, everything was arranged, the victims were arranged, and the corrupt officials were rectified. After handing it over to the local officials, he set off for Beijing.
He went back to the Hou's mansion directly, and waited for the next morning to return to the court with Fang Ziyi.Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yan Mingjin gained a small reputation both in the court and among the people.
What he didn't expect was that when he returned to the mansion, Yan Xiaoru actually came over, and even ordered the housekeeper Shi Rui to arrange a banquet to welcome him.Ming Jin secretly smiled inwardly, with a submissive and calm look on his face.The wine table was full of people from the Hou's mansion, Mrs. Yu has gradually recovered in the past few months, and her complexion has improved.Zhixi and Zhishan were also sitting together, as well as Minglei.Since Mingxuan had an accident, he hadn't been out of the yard very much. Everyone knew it in their hearts, and no one mentioned it.
Yan Xiaoru first asked a few things about the south, and Ming Jin did not hesitate, and explained one by one, what is the situation and how to solve it.When Yan Xiaoru heard this, he couldn't help praising him: This son is really not a thing in the pool, alas, he can't tell what it feels like.I also explained a few words that need to be paid attention to when going up to face the saint, so I won't say more.
Yu's somewhat taboo towards Ming Jin, and she doesn't know whether she hates or is afraid. In short, in front of Ming Jin, she always feels uncomfortable and can't settle down.With a smile on her face, she picked up some food for him: "I've been out for so long, I'm afraid I'm tired and suffering outside, so eat more."
Ming Jin glanced at her and smiled faintly: "Thank you Madam, is Madam safe?"
Yu Shi's body froze slightly, and there was something strange on his face, he twitched the corners of his mouth and said with a smile:
"Well, it's better. I'm old and I can't stand stimulation. I was just sad for Xuan'er at that time, and that's why... oh!"
Ming Jin picked up the wine glass and raised her head to take a drink: "It's inevitable, that mother didn't feel sorry for her son. At the beginning, my mother was unhappy because of the matter with my elder brother and hurt her body." Ming Jin didn't look at her anymore. Yu Shi, with no emotion in his voice, picked up the jug and poured Yan Xiaoru another glass.
Yu Shi shook his hand holding the chopsticks, and the dish he picked up fell onto the table.
"Ahem! Don't mention the past. It will be fine in the future. I am old, and this will be your world from now on." Yan Xiaoru frowned and sighed, knowing that he was left out in the cold Jin's mother doted on Shi Yu, which made Ming Jin and Zhi Luo resent him deeply, and naturally disliked Shi Yu. Seeing what Ming Jin said, she coughed and wanted to change the subject, but couldn't find it. nothing to say.He didn't expect that Mrs. Yu was thinking of something else.
Zhixi seized the opportunity, rolled her eyes, concealed the schadenfreude in her eyes, and said in a worried tone: "Second brother is not at the mansion recently, maybe he didn't know when he just came back. Eldest sister had an accident in the palace..." She Before he finished speaking, Ming Jin looked over, his heart tightened inexplicably, and his voice became lower and lower.
Ming Jin's originally calm face turned cold, and he looked straight at Zhi Xi: "What happened to Luo'er?"
Zhixi clenched her palms secretly, swallowed her saliva, did not dare to look at Mingjin, and then said: "It is said that the prince dotes on the eldest sister, but this doting is only for a while. After you left, I heard that a woman was picked up The one who is pregnant is favored by the prince outside, just gave birth to a son a month ago, and the old princes, concubines, and princes in the house are very fond of it. It is also discussed in the capital."
"That's right, there are all kinds of things in the capital now. The eldest sister has been married for less than a year, but now there is a woman outside who has given birth to the prince's child, and even the Hou Mansion has lost face." Zhishan is stupid, listening to Zhishan When Xi talked about this matter, she couldn't hold back immediately, and took up the conversation in a strange way, but she didn't see Ming Jin's dark and handsome face.
Yan Xiaoru snorted coldly, and reprimanded the two of them: "It's all rumors from outside, why are you fooling around like this?" He turned his head and looked at Mingjin again: "The prince has a noble status, he has three wives and four concubines. It's normal." He actually hoped that there would be some rift between Ming Jin and Xi Yincang, but anyway, it's better for Ming Jin and Fang Ziyi to remain neutral than to be too close to Xi Yincang.Although Xi Yincang is also neutral on the face and only loyal to the emperor, but who does not know that he and the second prince have been together since childhood and have a good relationship.
Ming Jin calmed down a little, remained unmoved on the face, continued to eat, and stopped taking care of the two women.Zhixi and Zhishan were a little embarrassed, feeling uncomfortable.
After Ming Jin finished dealing with Yan Xiaoru, he went back to the yard. Mo Xuan waited on him to clean up and changed his clothes. Then he called Si Yi in. He sat in a chair casually wearing a thick black cannonball and asked : "What's going on with the third young master?
? ”
The boy named Si Yi hurriedly reported the news from the pavilion. He stuttered and spoke clearly, telling about Zhiluo and Xi Yincang falling off the cliff, falling into a gu, and Xiaodouding who suddenly appeared. out.I couldn't help but feel a little anxious, as soon as the master left, so many things happened to the third young master. Alas, fortunately, the third young master is fine now, otherwise the guardian Chiyan might suffer.Moreover, the news about the woman and the child from Guardian Chiyan is not very clear, and I don't know if they are Xi Yincang's seed. I only know that they were brought back by Xi Yincang. It's just that after giving birth, The person disappeared, and I don't know where he was sent.
Ming Jin frowned, and waved Si Yi back.Si Yi couldn't wait to leave quickly, so he quickly bowed and saluted, then turned and left in a hurry.
Mo Xuan looked at Ming Jin, went over to a cup of tea, and asked in a low voice: "Master, do you want to go to the palace?"
Ming Jin didn't say a word, as if he was thinking about something, he sighed after a long time, stood up and walked to the inner room: "No, we'll talk about it after seeing the emperor tomorrow." Ming Jin took off the robe he was wearing and handed it to Mo Xuan Li: "You've been exhausted these days, so go to bed early today."
"Well, Xuan'er is not tired, and Xuan'er is the happiest to be able to help the master." Mo Xuan blinked his bright eyes, his face full of satisfaction.
A rare faint smile appeared on Ming Jin's cold face: "Stop being coquettish, go down."
☆, Wangfu visit
The emperor was very satisfied with Fang Ziyi and Ming Jin's going south this time, and praised him greatly in the court, and many rewards were unavoidable. Fang Ziyi was already an important member of the court at a young age, but he did not increase his official status. The prime minister also meant that I don't approve of my son being too ostentatious.As for Yan Mingjin, who was unknown before, but now he has made great contributions and is temporarily in the spotlight. However, the emperor unexpectedly only gave him a sixth-rank idle position. Fang's forces are vying for useful talents both openly and secretly. Although this Yan Mingjin has a taste of being born out of nowhere, it can be seen from his recovery from his illness to his return from going south that he is not a simple person. Everyone can't guess the emperor's arrangement. What is the intention? The people who originally wanted to win over inevitably hesitated and took a wait-and-see attitude.
Ming Jin's face was calm and composed, thanking the emperor for his kindness, without any mood swings or changes in his face.He didn't expect to gain power so smoothly, although he couldn't figure out what the emperor was thinking, but he was not in a hurry.Now he just wants to go to court, and take the opportunity to ask Xi Yincang about Zhiluo.
Finally, when he retired from court, Ming Jin turned around and left the hall. Xi Yincang was called by the emperor to the study to discuss matters. He wanted to go directly to see Zhi Luo, but he didn't want to be stopped by Fang Ziyi just after walking a few steps.
"Mingjin, now that the matter is finally resolved, go to my place tonight and have a drink to celebrate you. Although it is an idle job, I believe that with your talent, you will definitely have the opportunity to serve the country. Father also appreciates you Well, I want to meet you." Fang Ziyi smiled sincerely and happily.
Ming Jin thought for a while and said: "Thanks to Brother Fang's love for Ming Jin, today is the only way. If that's the case, I'm not welcome, I will definitely pass by tonight."
"Haha, good." Fang Ziyi laughed out loud, turned and left.
In the imperial study room, the emperor flipped through the mountains of memorials on the table, while Xi Yincang quietly stood aside.The emperor didn't even look up, and asked in a low voice while watching, "What do you think of Yan Mingjin?"
Xi Yincang thought for a while and replied: "He is a rare talent."
"Oh? I heard that he was stupid before, and he didn't recover for long. Hehehe, it's very interesting." The emperor closed a book with a stroke of his pen and walked, looked up at Xi Yincang, and pointed to the opposite chair Said: "Sit down."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xi Yincang sat down according to his words: "The stupidity before was just a rumor, and no one knows exactly what happened. There are inevitably some unknown things."
The emperor nodded: "You are cunning. Of course I understand this. I came here with your father in the same way. In the blink of an eye, we are all old." The emperor picked up the tea cup, took a sip of the fragrant tea, and continued : "Do you know why I don't reuse him?"
Xi Yincang didn't know what the emperor was thinking, nor what the emperor was looking for him for, so he could only reply: "Does the emperor still want to observe him?"
"This is one of the reasons." The old emperor said, his face raised
Feeling a little tired: "Although I'm old, I know in my heart, Cang'er, I heard that Yan Mingjin and your concubine are brothers and sisters, and they have a deep relationship. How is your relationship with Yan Mingjin?"
"I have met him a few times, and I admire him very much. It would be best if he can serve the emperor." Xi Yincang replied calmly.
The emperor raised his eyebrows: "Oh? I'm very happy if you think so. I heard that you once recommended him for Hao Ting."
Xi Yincang was a little surprised, the emperor is indeed the emperor, these things can't be hidden, he quickly restrained his mind: "Yes, I met once, the second prince also appreciates his ability, and wants him to work for the court. But Ming Jin He didn't express his opinion, but later on he made friends with Master Fang Ziyi."
The old emperor sighed and leaned back on the chair: "I know that you and Hao Ting are on good terms, and I understand Hao Ting's behavior, but his temper is a bit too gentle and his heart is too soft, just like his mother and concubine .”
Xi Yincang did not expect that the emperor would say these words to him directly. Does the emperor mean that he does not want the second prince to inherit the throne as the prince in the future?Still, there is another purpose.He didn't dare to think too much. He looked at the old emperor sitting on the chair. Although he looked much older than he actually was due to working day and night, the wisdom in his eyes remained undiminished. Wisdom down.Xi Yincang bowed slightly and said: "I believe in the character and ability of the second prince, so I support him in my heart. But Yincang knows the measure in his heart and understands his own responsibilities, so he will definitely not overstep."
The old emperor seemed very satisfied, and nodded again: "I also watched you grow up, I just admire you for this, just like your father, you are upright, what can you say. I am very pleased with what you said, you can do this Said that I naturally know your mind." The old emperor paused: "Although I don't want to, some things in the emperor's house have been inevitable since ancient times, and many of them are unexpected or even unacceptable to you. For this, what is the matter? Anything can happen. Cang'er, don't let me down."
Xi Yincang got up quickly and knelt in front of the emperor: "Yincang inherits his father's duties and will swear allegiance to the emperor to the death."
"Well, nothing else, let's go down. Hehe."
"Yes, I understand."
Xi Yincang turned around and left the imperial study room, his mind was full of thoughts. It seems that the final crown prince depends on the second prince's own ability. Compared with the third prince, he is indeed too soft-hearted. He must be able to become a benevolent king, but There is no room for any hesitation and intolerance in this road of fighting for the crown. Which emperor did not ascend the throne through bloodshed.
Ming Jin went out of the palace, and did not rush back to the Hou's Mansion, but went directly to Dinghui Prince's Mansion, and went to the gate of the Palace openly, asking Mo Xuan to report.On the way here, he also heard some rumors, and thought, this is good, he has a good reason to come and see his "sister"
The butler greeted him personally, and led Ming Jing to the main courtyard.Xi Yincang hasn't returned to the mansion yet, but the butler knows that Ming Jin has a close relationship with the princess, and he is not the same as before.
The third young lady who came was different, so naturally she didn't dare to neglect her.
Ming Jin entered the front hall of the main courtyard, Ying'er had already received the letter, brewed fragrant tea and served it.Ming Jin faced the saint today, and he no longer wore a dark robe like usual. He was dressed in royal blue brocade clothes, with a jade pendant hanging from his waist, and his hair was neatly tied up in a bun and the jade crown was fastened. He looked less cold More expensive.He sat there indifferently, and just as he sat firmly, he heard footsteps coming from inside.
"Second brother." Zhiluo arrived before the voice came, and as soon as the voice fell, his figure appeared behind the screen.Zhi Luo was just finishing feeding Fat Tuan'er, hugging him and playing around in the room, waiting for Xi Yincang to come back.Fat Tuan'er has already reached the full moon, and he has been raised fat and fat, and is developing in the direction of Fat Tuan'er, worthy of the name.When he heard that Ming Jin was coming, he was overjoyed, wrapped Fat Tuan'er in a small quilt, and came to the front hall.
Ming Jin got up and turned her head, stared blankly for a moment, watching Zhi Luo come out with a doll in her arms, although she had heard about it before, it was still a bit strange to see Zhi Luo like this all of a sudden.He was not in a hurry to speak, and took a closer look at Zhi Luo, seeing that he looked good, but he was a little thinner, so he felt relieved.He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, the movement was very small, but his whole face became much softer because of this movement: "It's only been more than three months, and I've lost weight again. What did Xi Yincang do? This is still left outside Planted? Hmph!"
"Second brother, don't listen to the nonsense outside, Yin Cang treats me very well." Zhi Luo smiled, he was very happy that the second brother cared about him so much, but seeing Yin Cang being misunderstood, he immediately put in good words for him: "There's something wrong with this matter, don't blame him, I'll tell you later. Look, this is Fat Tuan'er, isn't it cute?" Zhi Luo approached Ming Jin with Fat Tuan'er in his arms, and lifted the small cap on his head. A corner of the quilt revealed his white and tender face: "Fat Tuan'er, uncle is here to see you."
Fat Tuan'er opened his mouth, said yes and ah twice, looked at the unfamiliar face in front of him, and was not afraid of strangers, his black eyes were flickering, and the elves were cute.
Ming Jin looked at the little guy, then at Zhi Luo's expression of offering treasures, and shook his head helplessly.Immediately there was a big smile on his face, just like Zhi Luo, he stretched out his arms to hug Fat Tuan'er: "Come on, Fat Tuan'er, let uncle hug you."
Zhi Luo blinked, um, is this man his second brother?
Mo Xuan on the side was dumbfounded long ago, staring at Ming Jin without blinking, then pouted his rosy mouth aggrieved, feeling overwhelmed.
"Not as cute as you were when you were young, ha ha." Ming Jin gently pinched Fat Tuan'er's face, said to Zhi Luo, and then frowned again: "I heard about you being poisoned and hunted down. , what happened, if this is the case, why don't I let Chi Yan take you out of here?"
Zhi Luo didn't expect him to mention this suddenly, she wanted to shake her head and refuse, but she was a little tangled in her heart: "I, I..."
"That's what I planned at the beginning, but I wasn't ready. I just took over Xiaoyao Pavilion and my strength was not stable, so you were married into the palace. I don't want you to be involved in the battle between the court and the court. Now I
Overtly and secretly, the foundation is gradually stabilizing, Luo'er, my brother can protect you, and my brother will make up for you for the grievances you suffered in the past. "
Zhi Luo smiled lightly: "Second brother, it's not your fault whether you compensate or not. Whether it was before or now, I have never blamed anyone for all of this. No matter what you do, I believe in you because you are my second brother. I feel very happy now. I have Yin Cang who loves me, you love me, Fat Tuaner, and many people in the palace care about me. Extravagant demands, I dare not have any grievances, I am just, just uneasy, not afraid of what will happen in the future, but afraid that I will be too incompetent and drag you down, because I am afraid that all this is just passing by, I am selfish, greedy, willful Well, I know I'm a burden, but I can't bear it, I can't bear to let it go, and leave..." Zhi Luo said, his face was a little sad, he shook his head and smiled bitterly. With such a knot, he believed in Xi Yincang's sincerity, and agreed to live and die with him, but the more this happened, the more entangled he became. He was afraid that Xi Yincang would be hurt because of himself. The emotions can no longer be suppressed.
Ming Jin's eyes became softer, he turned around and handed the fat tuan'er to Ying'er, Ying'er thought it was interesting, and carried the child inside to find a nanny.Ming Jin put his arm on Zhi Luo's shoulder lightly, and said in a low voice: "Fool, you are always like this, you only care about others, and you never complain about anyone. Luo'er, don't think so, you are being hurt and pampered , This is all as it should be, you have such rights, don't feel uneasy, you are not a burden, not a burden. At least for the second brother, Luoer is the support and sustenance of the second brother. After the mother passed away, if there is no You, the second brother who has been suffering for so many years, can't hold on at all."
Mo Xuan silently pursed the corners of his lips. He knew the suffering of the master, so when the master trained himself, no matter how difficult it was, he endured the silence. It was also at that time that he felt distressed. , he made up his mind that he must learn the skills and protect his master. Although he still can't beat him now, he will always be with him.
Zhi Luo was not a sentimental person, and now Ming Jin raised it to vent, and after listening to Ming Jin's comfort, she felt better.He always doesn't think about things when he can't think of a way out.Zhi Luo raised her head and said, "Second brother, I don't want to leave in my heart, I know I'm a little headstrong like this, but I don't want to part with it."
Ming Jin looked at him, nodded, and then said: "Actually, I don't want to do that either. I'd rather put you by my side and watch at ease."
"Where do you want to put my concubine?" Xi Yincang heard Ming Jin's words as soon as he came in, feeling upset, so he walked two steps quickly to Zhi Luo's side, and pulled her over.
Zhi Luo raised her head: "Yin Cang, are you back? Why is it so late today?"
Xi Yincang looked at his red eyes, frowned, and instead of answering his question, asked, "What's wrong?"
Ming Jin took a look.
Ming Jin raised his eyebrows and snorted: "Is it because of you? How did you promise me? I told you at the beginning that if there is anything wrong with Luo, I will take him away. Do you think I'm in the south, so I don't know anything?"
"I know you're still asking, didn't you send your guardian to follow you secretly after you left? Luo'er is fine now, and I will use my life to protect him and let him leave, that's impossible." Xi Yin Cang took Zhi Luo's hand and looked at Ming Jin resolutely.
Zhi Luo felt a little helpless and warm in her heart, knowing that the two of them did this because they cared about themselves.He stood between the two of them and persuaded: "Okay, Yincang, second brother, don't do this. I'm fine, I'm fine. Second brother, didn't I say that, these are not about Yincang's business, everything Blame me."
Xi Yincang and Mingjin looked at each other for a long time, and then said: "I know what's in my heart, don't worry. Besides, it's the same for you, Luo'er can't stop following you. Wherever you put him, others can find him if they want to." Got it. As long as the situation in the court is settled, I will quit everything and take Luo'er and Fat Tuan'er to live a normal life."
Hearing this, Ming Jin suddenly laughed at himself: "Hehe, yes. After all, I am too ambitious. If I had given up all of this from the beginning, I would have been able to live a clean life with Luo'er by now. day."
"Second brother, don't be stupid. If you don't argue, if others don't think so, you will still die. Don't think too much about it. Some things are preordained, mother-in-law." Zhi Luo shook his head helplessly. Believe it, but he can travel through, what else can't happen.Now when I occasionally think of all this, I still think it is a dream, wondering if I will wake up one day, and I will actually be lying on my stomach in front of the computer in my small room.
The two listened and looked at each other with a smile. Who are the two of them?Xi Yincang turned his head to call for someone, and said to Ming Jin: "Master Yan rarely comes to the palace, how about having a drink together."
Ming Jin smiled lightly, calmly and gracefully: "I'll stay with Luo'er for a while longer. Meals are fine, but wine is free. I have an appointment with Fang Ziyi tonight."
Zhi Luo couldn't help but rolled her eyes: "You two just pretend, there's no one else here. Mo Xuan, stop standing on the side, come and sit together." Zhi Luo ignored the two of them and went to the side to pull that A handsome young man who has never said a word.
Some embarrassment appeared on Mo Xuan's serious and deep face, and he raised his eyes to look at his master.Ming Jin looked at Mo Xuan, and suddenly smiled: "Xuan'er, there is no one else, come here." Ming Jin remembered that Mo Xuan followed her when she was a child, and when she was in the most difficult and difficult times, the child would not say a word Caring for and admiring himself in his own way, he actually loves him in his heart, but because of his unwillingness and plans, he has often wronged him on weekdays, now looking at Xi Yincang and Luo'er, he can't help but Soft and distressed.
Mo Xuan was a little surprised on his face. Seeing the master's suddenly gentle eyes, it was as if fireworks exploded in his heart, and he stood there in a daze, without any reaction.Zhi Luo rolled his eyes, but he had heard Xi Yincang talk about the relationship between the two, so he pushed Mo Xuan and smiled and said, "What are you doing in a daze?" While talking, he pulled Mo Xuan to let him sit Leaving Mingjin beside him, he said: "Second brother, don't be so serious at ordinary times. You look at the child and are afraid of you. If two people are together, what's the fun in this way? Yincang, don't you think so?" ?”
Mo Xuan's small face turned red immediately: "Third young master, master, the master is very good, Xuan'er, I'm not afraid of the master."
"Oh? Not afraid? What is that?" Zhi Luo chuckled, deliberately teasing Mo Xuan.
Mo Xuan looked at Ming Jin, then at Zhi Luo, na na said: "Yes... yes..." After a long time, he didn't say anything, his face was even more embarrassing.
Ming Jin gently embraced Mo Xuan: "Okay, I know what it is. The third young master deliberately teased you."
Mo Xuan turned his head to look at Ming Jin, his eyes were sparkling, and his face was full of joy and satisfaction.Ming Jin's heart was peaceful and warm, and he suddenly discovered that, like Xi Yincang, he had someone who he wanted to cherish and take care of, unlike Dui Luo'er, or he already knew about it.
☆、Learn Kung Fu
After a while, Steward Lin led his servants, served the food and wine, and obeyed his orders, they all left, leaving only four people in the hall.
Zhi Luo was naturally very happy, Ming Jin had been there for more than three months, he was thinking about it, and now he was relieved, Mo Xuan always listened to orders and did not worry about messy things, at this time no one else relaxed and followed Zhi Fall, two people have a big meal.Zhi Luo poured him a glass of wine, and Mo Xuan quickly shook his head: "You can't drink."
"Oh, I'm happy today, and I have nothing to do, drink a little, what are you afraid of?" Zhi Luo raised his head and took a drink.
Ming Jin saw Mo Xuan looking at himself with small eyes, and nodded slightly: "Don't drink too much."
Mo Xuan was overjoyed, he felt that the master had become a different person today, he became very gentle, so, is he pampering himself?He picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and squinted his eyes.
Xi Yincang and Mingjin watched the two of them eating and drinking happily, so they stopped caring about them.Ming Jin glanced at Xi Yincang indifferently, and said softly: "The emperor left you because of me, right?"
"Half." Xi Yincang picked up a dish for Zhiluo, put down his chopsticks, and looked at Mingjin with a half-smile: "The emperor's intention is obvious. But didn't you decide a long time ago? Are you related to your father?" Well, I helped you. Otherwise, I would definitely think that you belong to the third prince and want to win over the prime minister."
Ming Jin smiled slightly: "Who is the prime minister? Naturally, the emperor can trust it. I think the third prince is now smarter and no longer acts rashly. Hmph! But, no one knows what will happen in the end."
"What do you think?" Xi Yincang recalled what the emperor had said to him.
Ming Jin looked at him and said: "Although your heart is for the second prince, but now for Luo'er, you'd better put on a straight posture. I don't need to say what your identity is. The second prince is kind, has great ambitions, and cares about the world. But He is too soft-hearted. Since ancient times, there has been no emperor who has not been fighting with each other and bloody all the way to the top. As for the third prince, I don't care how capable he is. Him. He thinks that I am like him, that I don't care about anything for the sake of profit, I don't know what he and Yan Xiaoru are up to. Hmph!"
Xi Yincang raised his brows slightly: "Hehe, you can see clearly. My father reminded me when I took over the power. I can do what the second prince can do. As for the final result, naturally it depends on him. , if he can't be ruthless all the time, hey! I'm afraid I'm powerless if I want to."
"You never thought that if the third prince came to the throne in the future, how could there be a way out for you? He is not like the current emperor." Ming Jin raised the corners of his lips, and drank a glass of wine with his head raised.
Xi Yincang raised his lips and smiled: "Could it be that I, Xi Yincang, do whatever others want?"
Xi Yincang and Ming Jin were talking about serious business, but one of them didn't pay attention, and Zhi Luo and Mo Xuan drank a few more drinks, and the two of them became a little bit drunk.Ming Jin thought about seeing the prime minister at night, so he didn't stay too long, and pulled Mo Xuan away.Mo Xuan
His footsteps were a bit flimsy. He heard what Ming Jin said, and he never drank at all, because Ming Jin said that drinking was a mistake and he was not allowed to drink.Now he only felt that his body was a little light, and he followed Mingjin unsteadily, feeling a little uneasy in his heart, knowing how many drinks he had had, he rubbed his head vigorously, afraid that Mingjin would scold him, so he opened his eyes, Follow Ming Jin out of the house.
Ming Jin looked back at him, stretched out his hand to bring him to his side, and helped him into the carriage.
Mo Xuan only felt his eyelids sink for a while, and his body swayed when the carriage moved.Mo Xuan sat up straight with a jolt: "Master."
Mingjin knew that he was used to being a killer before, so he kept his vigilance, looked at his slightly flushed face, rubbed his head: "Xuan'er, it's fine. If you're tired, sleep for a while."
Hearing this, Mo Xuan seemed to be relieved, his body softened again, his eyelids drooped, and he lay down in Ming Jin's arms: "Master, Xuan'er will protect you."
"Well, good." Ming Jin showed a rare tenderness in his eyes, gently stroked Mo Xuan's hair, and unconsciously reappeared his childhood appearance in his head, "Xuan'er, I might, I will find a way to marry the prime minister Daughter, Xuan'er, do you blame me?"
Mo Xuan raised his head slightly, his eyes were a little confused, he smiled sweetly: "No, didn't the master say that those are all fake, and the master belongs to Xuan'er alone. Xuan'er believes in the master, Xuan'er Will always be with the master."
Mingjin smiled softly, and hugged her tightly in his arms: "Well, Xuan'er is good. Xuan'er, those are all fake, even if I marry her, I will only love Xuan'er in the future."
"Oh!" Xuan'er buried her head in Mingjin's arms and fell asleep.
Compared with Mo Xuan, Zhi Luo's alcohol capacity is considered good, and the drinker is a little excited, but not drunk.He went back to the room, Fat Tuan'er just woke up from a nap, crying.The nurse is hugging and coaxing him.Zhi Luo reached out to pick it up, went to the bed and took the little bell for the little guy to play with, and while coaxing the fat group, asked Xi Yincang: "Come here and smell it, is the wine smell strong? Will it smoke you?" To the fat group?"
"What are you afraid of? Fat Tuan'er is a boy, and he also drinks when he grows up." Xi Yincang said as he leaned over and sniffed it vigorously, "Hehe, it's fragrant, mixed with the smell of sweet-scented osmanthus."
As soon as Fat Tuan'er arrived in Zhiluo's arms, he calmed down, it was like this every time, and Zhiluo was proud of this for a long time.At this moment, the little thing stopped crying, Yiyi babbled, stretched out meaty claws from the quilt to play with the bell.Seeing Fat Tuan'er obediently, Zhi Luo asked the nanny to go down and rest.He turned his head to look at Xi Yincang and asked: "Yincang, do you think the second prince can be ruthless? If he loses, what will happen to Liu Wanyi and the child in her belly?"
Xi Yincang shifted his eyes from Fat Tuan'er's face to Zhi Luo's face: "Think you know how to eat?"
Zhi Luo pouted, and said, "Don't I need to take care of myself? Yin Cang, I will grow up, and I want to help you."
"Hehe, okay, help me first tonight." Xi Yincang smiled brilliantly,
Just beautiful, when there was a pain in the waist, Zhi Luo stretched out his hand and grabbed the tender flesh: "Oh, take it easy, you are really willing."
Zhi Luo let go of her hand, rubbed him again, and said, "I'm telling you the truth. Hey, tell me, if you want to be in the top position, brother-in-law will inevitably kill each other. If you don't take the top position, you will die in the end. Liu Wanyi is now With the dragon species, the third prince has been quiet for a while, so he has some plans, right? I'm always worried, will he have ideas on that child? Maybe it's because of Fat Tuan'er, I always have this kind of Feel."
Xi Yincang teased Fat Tuan'er with a small bell, and after hearing Zhi Luo's words, he pushed his head against his head and said, "Whoever makes him the prince is inevitable. If he wants to protect their mother and child well, he You have to make up your mind. The third prince's idea of attacking the royal guards had failed repeatedly, and he didn't dare to make any big moves. After all, the emperor was a little alarmed before. The more he doesn't move, the more dangerous he is. They are cultivating their own people in secret."
"You mean, he wants to find an opportunity to rebel?" Zhi Luo was a little surprised, even if he had his own people, without the military power in his hands, it was not easy to rebel.
Xi Yincang shook his head: "I don't know how to do it now, he has no military power, but General Qi is not so easy to talk to, he has always been a loyal and upright person. The imperial guards are in the hands of the emperor, and the other half of the military power is in General Zuo In his hand, he has been guarding the frontier."
Zhi Luo listened and nodded: "The emperor is still the most powerful, important people are in charge. You have that thing in your hand, will the emperor have any taboos?"
"No, don't worry. I've confessed my feelings to the emperor." Xi Yincang rubbed his head.
"Ah, ah..." Fat Tuan'er twisted her body, a little impatient.Zhi Luo shook his hands in a hurry, and stopped talking to Xi Yincang, he smiled and looked at the little guy and coaxed: "Oh, Fat Tuan'er is not happy to be left out in the cold, hehe, mother is here to talk to you." Said He frowned and looked at Xi Yincang again: "Yincang, I still feel awkward when Fat Tuaner calls my mother."
Xi Yincang was happy, took over the fat tuan'er from Zhiluo, lowered his head and kissed Zhiluo with a smile and said, "What's awkward? I usually see you standing up when I hurt you."
