Hand over the jade seal first [Infrastructure]

Probably all parents will feel that if their children fall in love and choose someone who is not good enough, then the relationship will naturally fade after a period of separation.

At least Xiao Xuan thinks so, and he may even think that Xiao Zirong is just a temporary leader, such a smart child, it is impossible not to know how difficult this road is.

Xiao Zirong felt that Xiao Xuan expected this in his heart, and it was his only means.

"After you go back, what should you do honestly? The emperor just doesn't let you go back to Jiankang, and he also said other things. Don't think too much."

Sitting next to Xiao Zirong, Xiao Ji tried to explain, he was worried that Xiao Zirong would complain to Xiao Xuan because of this matter, but thinking about it, it seemed that this was unavoidable.

How could Xiao Zirong be happy to separate the two of them so forcefully?

Xiao Zirong looked at the scenery outside the car window and said, "Got it."

The perfunctory tone gave Xiao Ji a headache, and he couldn't help but whispered: "If you really can't do it, just take a step back and admit to your father that you were impulsive?"

As for what's going on in private...that's the matter between Xiao Zirong and Xiao Xuexing. Xiao Ji didn't explain it too clearly, but he felt that Xiao Zirong should be able to understand what he meant.

Xiao Zirong turned his head to look at him and said with a smile, "What's the use of this other than whitewashing the peace? At that time, if I get close to my brother, my uncle will misunderstand that our old relationship will rekindle."

Xiao Ji was silent, he really wanted to say that even if he likes men, there are so many people in the world, why Xiao Xue must do it?

It's just that he can't say this, Xiao Zirong has said before that no one can compare to Xiao Xuexing, in fact... Xiao Ji can't think of anyone who can compare.

Oh, what's the matter?

After Xiao Xuan returned to Jinling, he took people back without staying for a few days, and of course Xiao Xuexing also went back with him.

The two of them only met once when they were parting. Xiao Xuexing patted Xiao Zirong's head with Xiao Xuan's eyes as if he was about to kill someone, and said, "Take care of yourself."

Leave the rest to me.

Although Xiao Xuexing didn't say this sentence, he felt that Xiao Zirong should be able to understand it.

Xiao Zirong pursed his lips, he knew he should be more relaxed, but his eyes were still red, he tugged on Xiao Xuexing's sleeve, and whispered: "Okay."

The intimacy and dependence in that expression made Xiao Xuan even angrier: His nephew had never been so close to him before!

Xiao Xuan got into the Luanjia angrily, Xiao Xuexing naturally accompanied them on horseback, Xiao Zirong stood behind him and watched them leave.

After everyone had left, Xiao Zirong withdrew his support and went back dejectedly.

In the days that followed, he was still the same as before, what to do and what to do, it seemed that there was no difference.

However, everyone knew that something must have happened, because His Highness would be in a daze from time to time.

In the beginning, it was only like this when dealing with paperwork in the study room, but in the end it developed to the point where he would be distracted in court meetings.

Liu Cainiang and Ayin Aman knew about it, and originally they also felt that the emperor's handling method was not bad.

After all, the emperor didn't beat the two of them, so he was showing mercy.

However, seeing the smile on Xiao Zirong's face becoming more and more formulaic, and the fact that he was losing weight even though his appetite hadn't diminished, he felt a little distressed.

Ah Yin found Liu Cainiang and said: "Sister Cainiang, why don't we send a message to the regent, he is so powerful, there must be a way."

Although they didn't know why the regent hadn't moved in the past few months, they had natural trust in Xiao Xuexing.

Liu Cainiang hesitated: "This... I'm afraid His Majesty will be angry if he knows."

"So what if he is angry? At worst, we will follow His Highness back to Taoyuan City!" Aman stomped her feet and said.

In the eyes of the two of them, no ethical guidelines are usually as important as their Highness.

What is the use of ethics?For these weak girls, they can only bully them. If their Highness really valued this so much, it is impossible for Taoyuan City to be established.

Liu Cainiang sighed: "Taoyuan City is also a king's land."

Ah Yin is very ambitious: "Then find another place, there are always places in the world that the emperor can't control."

After hearing this, Liu Cainiang thought for a while, and finally said with a smile on her face, "Yes, it's because I'm in love, but we are willing to leave, and the other sisters may not be willing to leave."

At the beginning, some people went to Taoyuan City with Xiao Zirong because they had nowhere to go. Now that those people’s lives are on the right track, they can even be said to be safe and prosperous. How could they still be willing to live a life of ups and downs?

A Yin said: "If you want to leave, you can leave, and if you don't want to leave, who can force them? If it weren't for His Highness who needs someone to take care of you, I think it would be fine if you don't take someone with you!"

Liu Cainiang patted her head and said: "You two little ladies, you are not big, but you have high ambition."

Ah Yin wrinkled her nose: "The two of us are not young anymore!"

That's right, the two of them are actually one year older than Xiao Zirong, but because they followed Xiao Zirong when they were teenagers, they have been raised a little more delicately over the years.

Apart from taking care of Xiao Zirong, they didn't have to do anything else beside Xiao Zirong, and no one even dared to provoke them, so after so many years, their temper didn't change much.

Liu Cainiang smiled and turned her head to discuss with Bai Yan. Both A Yin and A Man were impulsive, but I'm afraid they couldn't tell what to do.

Today's Jiankang looks calm, but in fact, the emperor must strictly guard against the contacts between the regent and Jinling, and will not give Xiao Zirong and Xiao Xuexing a chance to communicate with each other.

Bai Yan sat there and sighed slightly: "It's not difficult, let the firm find a way to take it there."

It’s a bit early for Yuxu Trading Company to say that it spread all over the world, but it’s true that it has opened many branches. Jiankang has even opened several stores, specializing in selling wine, musk, and glaze. Occupy half of the market.

Under such circumstances, Yuxu Trading Company has frequent contacts, not to mention that Xie Lianyun seems to have started to spread her detailed work recently, no longer just looking at Jinling.

These people must be invisible to the emperor, and they are very suitable for passing news.

Bai Yan and Liu Cainiang conspired for a long time, and finally found Xie Lianyun.

Originally, the three young ladies just wanted Xiao Zirong to talk to Xiao Xuexing, but after the three of them met, they suddenly felt the thrill of secretly doing big things.

After the three of them discussed a solution, Bai Yan looked at Liu Cainiang: "Do you want to speak to Your Highness?"

Liu Cainiang thought for a while: "Actually, His Highness may not be helpless, but he has his own plans. Maybe he doesn't want the Regent to know his current state. I'll go around and make a side note. If he wants to, let His Highness come down. If he doesn't want to , just follow our method.”

Bai Yan and Xie Lianyun nodded at the same time.

However, as Liu Cainiang said, Xiao Zirong seemed to have no intention of meeting and communicating with Xiao Xuexing at all.

When Liu Cainiang asked him if he wanted to find a way to meet or write a letter, Xiao Zirong smiled and said, "No rush, I trust him."

Xiao Xuexing is not an impulsive person, perhaps he already had a plan after he understood his own intentions, and it is impossible for him to fall into a passive position.

Now all he needs to do is wait, what if he really does something and it will be a disservice?

Liu Cainiang didn't say anything after hearing this, and turned her head to ask Xie Lianyun to find a way to pass the news to Xiao Xuexing - she didn't care what the regent thought, but she knew that she couldn't watch Xiao Zirong so distraught.

So one day a Kongming lantern suddenly floated to the Regent's Mansion in Jiankang, and the Kongming lantern burned out and fell down halfway.

The guards in the mansion immediately surrounded the Kongming Lantern, and then saw the glass pendant representing Yuxu Trading Company.

The guards didn't dare to be negligent, and directly handed the colored glass pendant to Ling Fu, who turned around and went to Xiao Xuexing.

Xiao Xuexing couldn't help smiling slightly when he heard it: "I also said that he has grown up, but I didn't expect to lose his composure so soon."

It's just that after opening the glass pendant and taking out the note inside, his complexion changed.

Only at this time did he know that Xiao Zirong was not restless, and even trusted him as before. The news was not from Xiao Zirong, it was because the people below couldn't stand it, so they secretly reported to the regent to their highness current situation.

Xiao Xuexing's face was serious, and he resolutely decided that he could not continue to procrastinate.

In fact, it wasn't that he didn't do nothing these days, he had chips enough to make Xiao Hyun compromise. During these days, apart from the tug-of-war with Xiao Hyun, he was more concerned with dealing with some people.

Some people who heard the news that the King of Jinling was not allowed to return to Beijing without an edict wanted to take the opportunity to attack Xiao Zirong.

Although Xiao Zirong has been immersing himself in his own affairs, he is not immune to everyone.

What's more, there are always some people in this world, even if you don't get along with them, as long as you live well, they will be envious and jealous.

These are the people that Xiao Xuexing took care of, and one of them was headed by the Xie family. Of course, it wasn't the eldest son of Qian Weiwei. The eldest son is still keeping his filial piety, living in the countryside with his mother and siblings, and doesn't care about anything at all. .

On the contrary, some other relatives of Captain Qianwei, such as in-laws or cousins, were unconvinced and wanted revenge.

How much of this is due to family affection, Xiao Xuexing can't say for sure, after all, the benefits that someone in the family can bring to the family in the position of Wei Wei are huge.

Now this Wei Wei disappeared for no reason, and was quickly occupied by other people. He was still an existence that didn't quite match up with the Xie family. How could they not be in a hurry?

Even if there were rumors in the rivers and lakes that the regent took Wei Wei's life secretly, they could only secretly put the account on Xiao Xuexing, and Xiao Zirong, who had been speaking for the women's department, couldn't escape.

Strictly speaking, the whole thing started because of King Jinling.

The Xie family is not impatient. They are a family with hundreds of years of history. In their eyes, whether it is Xiao Xuexing or Xiao Zirong, they just gained power for a while, and sooner or later they will fight back.

It's just that I didn't expect this day to come so soon, and for some reason, King Jinling annoyed His Majesty and refused to let him return to Beijing.

This is not a small matter, if they don't take advantage of the emperor's anger, how can they have a chance when the emperor's anger subsides and he feels sorry for his nephew?

But they also did not expect that no matter how carefully planned revenge would not achieve the desired effect.

In the final analysis, on the one hand, it was the emperor who did not cooperate, and on the other hand, it was the regent's thunderous tactics. Anyone who had a slight inclination was expelled from the court by him.

Xiao Xuexing didn't want Xiao Zirong to be wronged at the time, but now he regrets it a bit, and thinks that he should let the two little fish and shrimps go there, at least give Xiao Zirong something to do and let him vent his emotions, won't he be like now?

It's just that it's useless to regret. Now anyone with a discerning eye can see that the emperor is angry with the King of Jinling, but he is unwilling to let other people bully the King of Jinling, let alone have the escort of the Regent.

All the people who were ready to make a fuss died down, Xiao Zirong sat in the study all night, and when he came out the next morning, he said, "Changing clothes, follow me into the palace to see you."
