On the fifth day of the lunar new year, today is the beginning of school at the academy, Chen Yuan still sleeps until he wakes up naturally, there is no rush to go to the academy, the two boys in the palace have to wait for the emperor to come down, and he also has to wait for his grandfather and father to go down to pay their respects.

Chen Yuan didn't know what was wrong with him, so he said to go together, obviously the system didn't arrange tasks.What a cheap mouth.

After washing up, Chen Yuan looked in the mirror and saw the childish 17-year-old boy inside, whose soul revolved around thirteen or fourteen-year-old brats every day.

He sighed, it was all good things done by his grandma's system.But having said that, there doesn't seem to be much difference between 78 and [-]. If there is any difference, it is probably the difference between an adult and a minor.However, in ancient times, it was possible to talk about marriage at the fifteenth or sixteenth...

Chen Yuan frowned, it was too early to talk about marriage, he wanted to sleep right now.

At the dinner table, the eldest lady explained in detail, and Chen Yuan enjoyed the maternal love reflected in the words, and felt that God treated him well and gave him such a good mother.

"You child, why are you staring at Wei Niang and giggling? Did you hear me?"

"It's definitely not word for word, but the meaning is that my son knows." Chen Yuan took the fried buns to the eldest lady: "Mother, these beef fried buns are delicious, don't patronize and care about me, hurry up and eat them while they are hot."

The eldest lady couldn't help but smile on her face. Her son never cared about her before, but now he is not only sweet in his mouth, but also very considerate in his actions. This is a great comfort to a mother.

"You like to eat, mother will arrange for a cook from the house to come with you." She took a bite of the steamed stuffed bun, her mouth dripping with oil: "Well, it's really delicious."

"Oh, my mother, my son is going to study, so what does it look like to bring a cook?" Chen Yuan hurriedly said, "Your thoughts are clear, the academy has everything in place, so don't worry."

Besides, the beef fried buns I made are not inferior to this one.

The eldest lady looked at Chen Yuan, her heart seemed to be dipped in honey, she was always worried that her little son would go astray, but now it seems that her worry is completely unnecessary.

Chen Yuan took two mouthfuls of porridge: "Aniang, I will go to the academy with Li Ji and Li Geng later."

The eldest lady was puzzled: "You and the Second Highness, it seems..." She considered the words: "Became friends?"

Chen Yuan bit the bun, thinking about Li Ji's little hedgehog: "That's right, but his temper doesn't quite suit me."

"Don't be as knowledgeable as him." Da Furen knew that Chen Yuan's temper was even worse. The emperor didn't pursue the incident last time, and he had already shown mercy. If anything happened again, it would really be a blow to the royal family. Face is not a concern.

"I want to be as knowledgeable as him and beat him up." Chen Yuan swallowed the buns in his mouth, and naturally changed the topic: "Grandpa and daddy are going to the morning court, and the brothers and sisters are not here. When the son is gone, that's not right. Is it just Auntie who sits at such a big table and eats alone?"

The eldest lady smiled: "You silly son." She picked up a jade spoon and added some porridge to Chen Yuan: "How can I be lonely in such a big Xiangye's mansion? Besides, there are a bunch of girls and boys in other yards, so don't you I'm worried about my mother."

"Aniang, we still have to share the food. If you are really lonely, let the servant girls in this room accompany you."

The eldest lady smiled and said yes.

……

As soon as Yinshi arrived, Li Ji got up. He had very few things, a few pieces of underwear and nothing else. The four confidants left by his mother and concubine only came with Aye.

Aye was sitting on the table wiping his long knife. Outsiders were not allowed to bring knives into the palace, but he was capable, so naturally he couldn't restrain him. He put the knife into its sheath and took Li Ji's dagger to wipe it.

"At my age, should I be more innocent and laugh?" Li Ji quickly tied himself into a ponytail.

A Ye was confused: "What did the little master say?"

"Chen Yuan said to go back to the academy with me." Li Ji tied up his hairband, "and Li Geng."

"Then," Aye's hand wiping his sword stopped, "Young master still wants to kill him?"

Li Ji looked at him and smiled: "Do I seem to want to kill him?" He laughed again, imitating Chen Yuan's tone: "At your age, why do you open your mouth and keep your mouth shut to kill him?"

Aye scratched his head, as if he didn't understand, he was originally raised by his master to kill people, except for the master, everyone else was used to kill.

Li Ji casually picked up an apple on the table and threw it over. Aye caught it with his hand accurately, rubbed it on his clothes, bit his mouth, and smiled naively: "It's so sweet."

Li Ji also laughed, the atmosphere was relaxed, the master and servant gossiped for a while, and the drum sounded.

A Ye sheathed the polished dagger, and Li Ji said softly, "It's morning."

"When will the little master leave?" Aye got up and added charcoal to the stove.

"Of course we have to wait for the next court." Li Ji walked slowly in the room, his feet were not lame at the moment, and he walked steadily with every step.

Aye looked at it with a smile on his face, his little master played lame every day, it was really hard work.

There were footsteps in the yard, it was the eunuch and maid delivering breakfast, Li Ji limped and sat down at the table without a trace.

……

Mr. Chen Zhang and Chen Weichang finally went to court. Chen Yuanzao was waiting at the door. Seeing them get off the sedan chair one after the other, he greeted them with smiles.

The "ration" for returning to the academy this time depends on this move.

"How much money did your aunt give you?" Chen Zhang took a sip of tea and said, "In the past three months, you only spent 100 million taels, which is really a big deal."

Chen Yuan didn't expect that it was Xun who was waiting, so he lowered his head and remained silent.

"Where did all your money go?" Chen Weichang asked.

"The dean has detained it." Chen Yuan said: "My son is not lying. If grandpa and father don't believe it, they can ask the dean in person."

As he said that, he greeted the eight generations of the ancestors of the system by the way.

"The money is so generous, do you know that this matter has been reported to the emperor!" Chen Zhang reprimanded him with a cold face: "He also cooperated with the two princes..."

"They didn't spend my money." Chen Yuan frowned in confusion: "I didn't spend the emperor's money, so what does it matter to him?"

"Speak carefully!" Chen Weichang shouted, "Shut up!"

Chen Yuan didn't say any more, just stood there obediently and was scolded.The 100 million taels pulled out a lot of big truths, he didn't understand, why it was a matter of family affairs.

Sitting in the carriage, Li Ji saw that he was downcast, let go of his aloofness, and said a word of concern.

Chen Yuan explained the ins and outs of this morning's events. After listening, Li Ji said: "The Tian family has no personal affairs. Li Geng and I are the emperor's sons. Our affairs are the affairs of the Tian family. You take us two to spend money together." Qian Wanle, beating Li Ao, and Li Ao is the prince, as long as this matter is spread to the ears of the emperor, he will naturally not be able to hold back his anger, and Li Ao is the candidate for the future heir, you say, whether this matter is big or small ?”

Now Chen Yuan became transparent and leaned against the quilt without speaking.

"You still don't understand?" Li Ji asked.

"You said it so clearly that I still don't understand, that's really stupid." Chen Yuan said with a smile: "It's rare, you take the initiative to care about me."

Seeing the smiling eyebrows, Li Ji felt awkward in his heart, so he looked away and said nothing.

Chen Yuan put Mrs. Tang in his arms aside, sat up straight, and crossed his legs: "Who do you think is picking trouble in front of your father?"

"How would I know?" Li Ji lowered his eyes, playing with Tang Pozi in his hand.

"Okay, there are no outsiders, let's stop hiding."

Li Ji looked up at him: "Who is we?"

"You." Chen Yuan will not smile: "We are also friends who eat, drink and have fun together without doing business."

"Friend?" Li Ji seemed to have heard a big joke.

"What are you laughing at?" Chen Yuan objected, "Your father recognized our relationship."

"That's the emperor, the son of heaven. Even if it's just the two of us, you have to be careful with your words. If you accidentally hear it in the emperor's ears, you will be even more disgusted with your Chen family."

Chen Yuan is grateful for what he said. The Chen family is a thorn in Emperor Hui's side. This matter was mentioned in the novel, but this thorn cannot be removed. If the Chen family and his son fall, there will be too many officials involved. In addition, there was a balance of power between the Zhao family and him, Emperor Hui could only suppress his anger and nausea, and had to act like he was friendly with the emperor to deal with the left and right ministers.

Chen Yuan was not surprised that Li Ji could say this. It was mentioned in the novel that he had a shallow relationship with Emperor Hui and his son, but to Chen Yuan, these words were all aimed at him, so he couldn't help feeling a little relieved.Sure enough, the little ice cubes began to melt.

"What you said," he lowered his voice, "is causing trouble."

"It's okay, I have you." Li Ji said with a smile.

"Will you be buried with me?" Chen Yuan followed with a smile: "It's just a small talk, and besides, it won't reach the ears of outsiders."

Li Ji glanced at Shi Jian who was driving the carriage outside.

"Brother Shitou is my friend, so you can rest assured."

friend?Friends again.Li Ji withdrew his gaze, and was surprised for a moment. The Chen Yuan he knew didn't seem like he would talk about brothers and friends with anyone, but after spending so many days together, he has indeed changed.

Seeing him in a daze, Chen Yuan asked, "What are you thinking?"

Li Ji thought for a moment before saying, "Do you think you can make friends with your status?"

"Yes." Chen Yuan said without hesitation, "Shi Jian, you and Li Geng are all my friends, I've already made friends." Then he leaned towards him: "Could it be that you don't consider me a friend? "

Li Ji avoided his gaze: "The word "friend" doesn't exist in this capital city."

"That's what you think." Chen Yuan leaned back on the quilt and said sincerely, "It's the environment you grew up in that made you not believe it." He softened his tone and started to feed chicken soup: "You are only thirteen, no, It’s fourteen soon, it’s not too late from now on, if you change your mind and look around, you’ll find that this world is full of beautiful people and beautiful things.”

Li Ji was in a trance for a moment. He thought he had read a lot and lived a clear life, but he had never heard such words. The people around him taught him to hate, teach him to be angry, teach him to fight, teach him to kill, But he didn't teach him to change his way of life.

"Do you think about what I said makes sense?" Chen Yuan looked at Li Ji's expression, hoping to make this kid change his temper, after all, the word "tyrant" is not a compliment.

Li Ji was speechless, there are no absolutes, and the truth is the same, so he chose not to answer.

"I know how to read faces." Chen Yuan said suddenly.

Li Ji looked at him with big grape-like eyes, and asked suspiciously, "Looking at the picture?"

"Yes." Chen Yuan said boldly, "I can see from your face that you will be the emperor in the future."

Li Ji was stunned immediately, showing a rare panic expression, Chen Yuan's words were extremely rebellious, and he just said them without any scruples, without fear of death.

"You!" He stared, as if someone had seen through his mind, "Damn you for saying that."

Chen Yuan didn't expect him to react so strongly, so he quickly admitted his mistake and changed the subject: "We won't have to be in the same group when we go back to the academy. We've got our wish, be happy."

Li Ji said nothing with a cold face.

Chen Yuan thought he was angry, and was about to continue apologizing, when he heard Li Ji reproach him in a low voice: "Don't say such disrespectful words in the future, you won't die if you hold it in your stomach, you really want to die if you say it."

Chen Yuan smiled, playing with the headband in a foolish manner: "What my cousin said is true, my cousin wrote it down."

There was silence in the carriage for a long time, and Li Ji first broke the silence. He was curious about the relationship between Chen Yuan and the dean.

"The dean seems to be very kind to you."

"He is very good to me?" Chen Yuanba raised his voice: "I think you have a misunderstanding about the word very good."

Li Ji blinked his big eyes, and said bluntly: "You know how much my father and emperor respect the dean. The academy was founded from the generation of the emperor's grandfather. The dean and his elders lived to be a hundred years old, and they still look not old. Everyone said he He is an immortal who came down from the sky to bless my Rong'an country, knows astronomy and geography, and is omnipotent, and the dean has never had personal relationships with the students of the academy, and he is not afraid of your grandfather and father, why is he only treating you?"

Chen Yuan shook his feet, he couldn't tell the truth to the fool in front of him, and he couldn't bear to lie to him. After a moment of silence, he leaned forward: "To tell you the truth, he is really omnipotent. As for why he only Treat me well because I was his father in my previous life."

"?" Li Ji was at a loss: "Father?"

"I'm his father."

Li Ji: "..."
