Ying Tianchang

In the prime minister's mansion, Liao Yanxi slowly played with the greeting card and gift list sent by Shen Yue, and said softly: "Jining is not a good place, and it is natural that the ceremony is not shocking, but with the ability of Shen's mansion, it is too stingy." Liao Jinxiu Listening from the side, knowing that Father meant something, he frowned and said with a sneer: "That little fat man Shen Yue blinded his dog's eyes. Seeing that my Liao family is in trouble, he dared to fool Grandpa Tai Sui."

Liao Yanxi smiled slightly, stood up, and walked around a painting spread out on the table. In the painting, the pavilions are elegant, misty and rainy, and several old people are listening to the piano, watching chess, holding wine cups, or admiring flowers. Things, end is a school of romantic weather.Next to the painting is a small poem:

In front of the curtain of a pair of swallows talking, the patient is bored and sleeps day and night.

Apricot blossoms bloom all over the place, and the garden is as green as smoke in the spring rain.

The fine rain does not turn into mud, and the material is steep and cold through the clothes.

There are owners everywhere in the gardens, where to look for the return of spring.

"There are owners everywhere in the gardens. I want to find where to see the return of spring." Liao Yanxi chanted the poem on the painting lightly, and sighed: "Although the painting is average, the image is too small. The calligraphy is not bad, and it is worthy of Shen Chifeng's literary name. .”

Fan Xicheng smiled wryly, thinking that this kid Shen Yue is too messed up, the situation of the Liao family is very unstable now, and the huge family property is about to be blown away by the rain, but you write such straightforward nonsense poems to irritate people.He pondered for a while, and respectfully said: "Shen Yue's actions have always been funny, this move is just boring, and it's just an attempt to stimulate the mind of adults."

Liao Yanxi sighed secretly, patted Fan Xicheng's shoulder lightly, shook his head and remained silent.Fan Xicheng was quite sensible, knowing that his disguise had been seen through, he hurriedly said: "This poem looks familiar, it seems... It was written by the eldest son of King Jing in the previous dynasty."

Liao Yanxi's complexion gradually slowed down, and he nodded with a smile, "Biexiu has a famous literary name, and it's really not false, and my silly boy didn't see it at all." Hearing Liao Jinxiu's low snort, Liao Yanxi turned his head and said: "Why, no Convinced?" Liao Jinxiu said proudly, "I just remembered what Xicheng said just now, isn't he the upright Mr. Yuanze from the previous court? The one who often wrote ridiculed letters because of his disagreement with his father." Liao Yanxi heard Yan couldn't help laughing, and pointed to those few lines of small characters and said, "Do you know whose words these are?"He had no choice but to force his neck and said: "Although it is elegant and graceful, it is definitely not from Uncle Shen." When he was young, he accompanied the prince to study in the palace, and was also taught by Shen Chifeng for a few days, so he has a lot of respect for this famous master respect.

Liao Yanxi nodded, "Happiness belongs to idleness, goodness is not contemptible, this son is probably not a thing in the pond." After finishing speaking, he looked at Fan Xicheng, "Don't be my nephew, what do you think?" After two conversations, Fan Xicheng frowned. Already slightly damp, he looked at the old boss with even more awe, and pretended to be calm and said: "Tight inside and sparse outside, although it is in lower case, the style of writing is very grand, it seems to be Yan Donglou, the son of the chief assistant of the previous dynasty."

Liao Yanxi smiled with his beard and said with a smile: "Sure enough, a talented man!" Fan Xicheng didn't dare to say that, his expression became more and more panicked. You must know that the Yan family and his son are big treacherous ministers. In the end, they all ended up being executed by Ling Chi.As soon as this remark came out, he didn't know how Xiangye would react.Liao Jinxiu didn't take it seriously, and said with a smile: "I heard that although Mr. Donglou's character is romantic, he was born with a short neck and a fat body, which is quite rough and fits Shen Yue's image." Liao Yanxi did not show any particular dislike for Shen Yue, and refuted it with a smile "You haven't had your turn these two days. No wonder you don't know. Fatty Shen went to Jining and lost a lot of weight. Now he's almost as handsome as you!" After speaking, he couldn't help laughing, Fan Xicheng Can't help but smile, only Liao Jinxiu's face turns red and turns white, not sure if his father is hurting him or praising him.

After laughing, Liao Yanxi said sternly: "Shen Yue must not be underestimated. Mr. Yuanze was reused because he turned against his father and killed his relatives righteously. Mr. Donglou was tortured because of his assistance to his father. Let's put it aside. The third one in this painting The meaning is heavy, but do you see it? ──Xiu'er, Biexiu certainly doesn't know this, you need to work harder."

Liao Jinxiu hesitated for a while, "The pavilion in this painting is very familiar, but our family is in Xishan?" Liao Yanxi nodded, and sighed nonchalantly: "You also went there once when you were young, so naturally you can't remember clearly This painting is so detailed, it seems like I have seen it with my own eyes." He suddenly turned his head and looked at a person by the window who hadn't spoken. ?” Lin Shiming stood up slowly, glanced at the scroll on the table, nodded and said, “Not bad.”

Liao Jinxiu didn't react much, but Fan Xicheng was trying to control the shock in his heart. He had followed Liao Xiang for more than two years, and he only knew that Lin Zhongcheng was upright and upright. To show people, there is often a copy every ten days and a half months.He had never seen Lin Zhongcheng visit when he was in or out of the prime minister's mansion. He was quite surprised when he saw him in the study today, and then he became suspicious when he saw Liao's attitude towards him.While he was thinking, Liao Yanxi had softly explained to him:

"If a person is too powerful, there must be someone against him. Otherwise, the Holy Majesty will be very worried. If the Yushitai finds out my small problems every now and then, but still can't find any real reasons, wouldn't it just show my innocence ?”

"It doesn't matter how the people below see you, what matters is what kind of image you are in the mind of the Holy One."

Liao Yanxi turned to Lin Shiming, and said in a deep voice: "Shen Yue and the Ren family are really at odds?" Lin Shiming nodded slightly, and said solemnly: "It has already been investigated. Two years ago, in the case of Yuelian Lake, the Ren family attempted to assassinate Shen Yue by fishing in troubled waters for some reason. It is because of this that the Ren family suffered a lot during the subsequent investigation, and they were willing to be taken advantage of and hand over to the Kyoto Defense."

He didn't say much, but every sentence was to the point. Liao Yanxi gave him an appreciative glance. He had always trusted Lin Shiming's judgment.

"I don't need Shen Yue to spend so much effort to remind me, I also know that I should retire, otherwise Xiu'er will definitely not be able to take the position. It's just that the officials in the court who are attached to me and the people at home, I have to think about them. Although Shen Yue is just a servant now, he already seems to be in charge of the Ministry of Industry, and his future must be limitless—" Liao Yanxi said in a serious tone, glanced at his son, then at Lin Shiming, as if making a silent exchange support.

Lin Shiming frowned tightly, and said slowly, "Shen Yue is trustworthy, but I don't know if the young master can tolerate him with his arrogance."

"Uncle Lin", Liao Jinxiu interrupted him solemnly, "For the sake of the tribe, for the sake of the Liao family, I will practice patience."

Liao Yanxi and Lin Shiming looked at each other, showing a knowing smile, Liao Yanxi said softly: "Then today's matter is settled like this. We will do our best to help Shen Yue and concentrate on bringing down the Ren family." The traitor looked out of the window with some melancholy, his gaze seemed to pass through the atrium to the flower hall in the outer courtyard, saw the young official who was waiting for the handover, and said word by word: "Let him in."

Fan Xicheng took a quick glance at Lin Shiming, who was concentrating on drinking tea without looking sideways, and left in response.
