Xie was naturally happy to receive the annual gift from Xue Pan thousands of miles away.There are not only glass tea sets, but also story books brought to his son Xie Min. The stacks are all comic books with illustrations. The pictures inside are close to the style of Western paintings. Say something, so that Xie Min, who is still illiterate but shakes his head and wants to imitate his master, likes it very much.

After the court meeting, Xie first went to study for his son, which he would do every day when he was free, and then returned to the study. "Yin Xi, how is the investigation going on?"

"Fifth Master, the shadow of the capital is indispensable here, and the Xue family's unlucky dark line has been lying in ambush for a long time, just because Jiangnan is the place to start the attack. We have a small number of people there, and we can't find out who is behind Qibaozhai I'm doing this." What Yin Xi investigated was naturally that Qibaozhai was born, which led to the public's emotions and contradicted the whole story of the Xue family's business. "However, with a hundred secrets and one sparseness, they don't know whether they are too relieved in the north, or because of other reasons, they have exposed some flaws. Someone has contacted the Jia family."

"Jia's family?" Xun buckled the table, which was a bit strange, I didn't expect them to have this ability, "Is there anything else, just this one?"

"Now it seems that there is only one, but the Jia family doesn't have any capable people in the field of business. If they can make this situation, I'm afraid they are just one of them, and there must be other people involved." Yin Yin Xi said so.

If you say that Xie is a prince who has just entered the court, he doesn't have too many connections in his hands, and he should be restrained in doing things, but he has an adoptive mother, Concubine Chen.This woman was born in a general's family, and her natal family is not considered to be guarding the side, but it is also well-known. Unfortunately, it has not been a few years since she entered the palace, because of the deaths and injuries in the border war, except for the fact that she is still guarding the border now. Except for the general, no one stayed behind.

Concubine Chen Guifei can't be called a foster mother who raises children for others without any grievances, but she has the last bit of squareness that is different from the people in the palace.After the death of his fourth brother, Xie felt that Concubine Chen's thoughts were all hopeless, but when she passed away, she handed over some hidden clues in her hands to Xie. Xie was sure that her father didn't know about it, and the reason was also in Chen As expected by the concubine, when the cinnabar mole in a person's heart is dead, and the death is not so normal, he must go back and investigate, and with a trace of irrationality, as long as there is a little gap, the secret can be hidden .

Xie didn't intend to touch these hidden threads at first, until the big Yangzhou case, he had already realized that for himself or for the people he wanted to protect, if he didn't fight, he would die. Only by ascending to a high position can he control others. man's fate.Xie planted some people around Xue Pan. Xue Jiazhi's family was tight outside and inside, and he couldn't penetrate the core, but his eyes and ears in Jiangnan were much more sensitive. This time, the Xue family knew about it very early.He also thought about whether to write to Xue Pan, but he dismissed it this year. He wanted to see what the child could do, and he was not disappointed. , but let the other party avoid it.

However, thinking about the Jia family reported by Yinxi, Xie could smell something unusual in it. It seems that no one can escape this battle for the heir apparent.He wanted to remind Xue Pan a little bit, but he slowed down. He went to the palace tomorrow to find out what his father said. Last time he went back to the Xue family to save him, his father issued a decree to reward him, but he didn't know that the Xue family What is the position in the heart of the father.

"This thing is not bad." The emperor looked at the petals unfolding in the glass pot, and said to Xun with a smile, "Why did it come from the children of Xue's family?" When Xun entered the palace, he brought Xue Pan to send it One of the set of glass tea sets that came here, father would definitely not lack this kind of novelty, but since it has been regarded as having something to do with the Xue family, it is impossible for him not to receive things from the Xue family, and such a novelty good thing It would be too much to justify disrespectful dedication to the emperor.

"Yes, Father." Xie still didn't say much, "It's to let Min'er see something new, of course the pot in Father's hand is the most special." Xue Pan will never forget the current emperor , This can't be said to be a fart, it's just that I gave my son a gift, but forgot the truth of my father, anyway, Xue Pan couldn't do it, and besides, those rewards are not for nothing.

The emperor looked at the inscription of the dragon pattern, and it was really not easy to burn this pattern with glass. "It's different whether it's Xue's family or not. I heard that Song Quan became his master, so he must have done well in his studies. It's an elegant thing for literati to have such wonderful ideas here. , is an interesting kid. Fifth, you guys know each other very well, right?"

Xie's heart skipped a beat, he didn't know if his father meant something behind his words, did he mean that he knew the Xue family very well?This is really wronged Xie, he just has a relatively close relationship with Xue Pan, and he hardly has a word with Xue's father.But it is up to you to decide how to answer, "Father, it would be great if Min'er could be this smart in the future, don't make Father worry like me."

The emperor shook his head and smiled when he heard this, this old five didn't talk much but he was telling the truth.However, judging from the online newspaper, Xue Pan had a lot of fate when he was a child, so it is normal to have such a mind.For some reason, thinking about the emperor, he rarely recalled his childhood.At that time, his father died young, and he assumed authority when he was only a child.Now that I think about walking on thin ice at that time, I have a little bit in common with Xue Pan. This is what the ancients said that heaven is jealous of talents. For Xue Pan, whom he has never met, he has a sympathetic affection.

"Tell me about the Xue family." The emperor is rarely interested in talking, which makes Xi very embarrassed. He doesn't know what the father thinks about the Xue family, or the four families that are connected in a line in the eyes of the world. What exactly does it mean, the hero in the old days is still a big burden, but looking at the expression of the father, Xie guesses that at this time, he just wants to know how the old story of Jiangnan is going.

"My son is ashamed. When I was in Jinling, I only cared about studying with Xue Pan, Mr. Song, and Lin Yu from the Lin family. About the matter of the Xue family, my son..." Xie was actually telling the truth, Aren't they chatting and having fun, he didn't believe that the father didn't know this.But there are still those three points of lies, but it is his dark line in Jiangnan that has moved since then.

"I know you are reading, or those books that eat food, you have said this. I want you to say that Xue Pan is a good boy." These words made Xie even more afraid to continue, The father only mentioned Pan'er, but why? Could it be that someone said something earlier? Thinking about it again, apart from the father, who can clearly know the situation of Xue's family, I am afraid that no one knows. "I have read a lot of books, and I am very diligent. If my son worked half as hard as he did back then, he wouldn't have to worry so much as his father."

This brought back memories of the emperor, if he said that among the children in the palace, he personally raised only the prince, but just like those secrets that cannot be seen, his favorite is the fourth prince of Concubine Chen, so naturally he is raised by Concubine Chen The Xun was also loved by the house, and this had nothing to do with the fact that Concubine Chen had fulfilled her duty to him. "Yeah, at that time, you were not talkative, and you haven't changed for the better now, but you can't let my little grandson be like that, and let Min'er and Xue Pan get to know each other when I have a chance in the future. There is still a scholar in the family."

Xie was a little puzzled at the moment, had the Xue family ever produced scholars before this? "Father, Jinling is far away from the capital."

"You don't have confidence. If the child can pass the exam early, at least ten years will be fine. By then, Min'er will only be ten years old, and he can be half a wife." The emperor thought of the Xue family. The other person is Xue Pan's grandfather. That person is a strange person, and he has read a lot, but he still inherited the imperial merchant's family business. He didn't choose the imperial examination to enter the world.

Xie naturally wouldn't ask questions. What the father wanted to know and what he didn't know was the holy will, so he couldn't speculate on his own.

"Okay, I can't say anything beautiful if I ask you. I accept this good thing. The Xue family is the imperial merchant that I personally sealed. Shang, they won't be fooled. Didn't they say that Jia Wang Shixue is one of the four big families? It's not bad to see more market customs with Song Quan."

The emperor finally said something lightly, but Xun was shocked, he understood the meaning, his father knew the entanglements and conflicts in Jiangnan, it was nothing more than these few families, they were not united Yes, I'm afraid each has their own entanglements.But what the emperor wants to see now is definitely not the discord among relatives, which means that they are on their own lines, which makes the emperor hate it the most, but is it really good to be harmonious?

"My son knows, Xue Pan must be very happy to know that the emperor cares about him so much." Xie knew that he couldn't talk anymore today, he didn't know where the emperor's father's kindness towards Pan'er came from, but the emperor's kindness was not always Yes, always be on the alert.If you talk too much, you will be lost. Today, I know that the father has a different kind of kindness towards the Xue family, but it also makes him vigilant. It seems that the father knows very well about Jiangnan, so what the prince and the third brother did must not be hidden. But the royal father didn't care, is this trying to boil the eagle, the one who wins will ascend to the top of the treasure, and the one who loses will be knocked down in the dust, is there really no problem like this?

Xue's father and Xue's mother brought Baochai to live in the house of Xue's family in the capital. They didn't want to go to Jia's house, but they were relatives after all. This year, Wang Ziteng returned to Beijing to report on his work. They haven't seen each other for many years. It's impossible not to go to Wang's house. Unreasonable.Father Xue thought about the conjectures in Pan'er's letter about the mastermind behind the scenes, so he lost interest in the two days after tomorrow. The Zhen family in the south of the Yangtze River and the Jia family in the capital city are old friends, aren't they?
