There's always someone who wants to break up with me

Emperor Jing'an's words hit Xu Cenli with icy balls, making him shiver from the cold.Yuan Yao wanted to frown anxiously, but he didn't dare to make any big moves. Emperor Jing'an would notice it, so he had to obediently raise his head, mustering up the courage to look directly at Emperor Jing'an.

Emperor Jing'an was extremely angry and laughed back: "What a boy, you actually abducted my crown prince!"

Xu Cen knocked his head on the ground, repeating the phrase "I'm afraid, my ministers are afraid".

Emperor Jing'an is the son of heaven. Is it the king's land in the whole world, and the king's minister on the shore of the land.It's hard work for him to know what everyone in the world is doing, but it's not too hard if he wants to investigate a person's daily routine.

The friendship between Yuan Yao and Xu Cen had just begun. Xu Taifu beat the mandarin ducks with a club first, and then questioned them in the palace of Emperor Jing'an. Xu Cen felt desolate in his heart.He really likes Yuan Yao. He wants to take care of him and watch the sunrise and sunset with him every day. He wants to become a courtier like his father and help his little prince grow into a wise king step by step. He wants to help his little prince protect the country that the Yuan family has guarded for thousands of years.But his little prince had just agreed to be with him, and he was going to be unable to protect him.

Thinking of this, Xu Cen's eyes were a little sour.

There was another muffled sound, and Xu Cen's forehead was already red.

His voice was no longer trembling and panicked, but with resolute confidence: "I know that I have committed a heinous crime, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive me. I just hope that Your Majesty will not care about the prince's youth. I am the only one who blames him. No fault, the crown prince is innocent."

Emperor Jing'an's eyes were peaceful, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth: "You are responsible, and you have blocked the responsibility on yourself. Feelings are consensual, so you are forced Yanyang?"

Xu Cen wanted to respond, but after repeated hesitation, he still couldn't open his mouth.Yanyang also likes him, he is not a force, they are consensual.

Emperor Jing'an saw that he stopped talking, and asked: "Why didn't you talk? Just now? Don't you swear that it's all your fault? Has this changed?"

Xu Cen's expression was indifferent, and he knelt on the ground and looked up at Emperor Jing'an: "I dare not deceive the emperor. The minister and the crown prince are indeed in love with each other. Please punish me alone." Muffled.

Emperor Jing'an walked up to Xu Cen, helped him up, and looked into his eyes. The young man in front of him had clear eyes, obviously not too polluted by the world.

"I am the Son of Heaven, Yuan Yao is the Crown Prince, do you know that?"

"I know."

"Yuan Yao will bear the responsibility in the future, do you know?!"

"I know."

"You know how to pay back? How dare you be so rebellious?!"

"The word love is the most unreasonable. By the time the minister finds out? It's already too late."

"As the king of a country, I absolutely cannot tolerate you like this."

"I know it. But with the word love, I really can't do anything about it."

Emperor Jing'an seemed to be thinking of something sad, and sighed softly: "Hey, if love can be controlled by the heart, then there will be less in this world? Less troublesome things, less heartbreakers."

Xu Cen fell on the ground again: "May Your Majesty forgive Your Highness, Your Highness has a pure heart, is still young, and is His Majesty's only son, his life should not be so dirty."

Emperor Jing'an smiled instead of anger: "You are wholeheartedly for my son, if you were asked to give up something for my son, would you be willing?"

Xu Cen knelt on the ground, his eyes full of piety: "Your Majesty, you should do your best to serve His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Emperor Jing'an turned around and sat back on the throne. The finger on his index finger collided with the handle of the seat lightly, making a crisp sound.

"Then I want? You give up your official career, you have no doubts."

Xu Cen knelt upright, with his back straight: "I am willing."

Emperor Jing'an said again: "There are too many people missing around my son, do you know?"

Xu Cen looked puzzled, and looked up at Emperor Jing'an, as if trying to guess his intentions.

When Emperor Jing'an saw such eyes, he couldn't help but think of Yuan Yao who was still naughty. This child had the same clear eyes as his Yanyang.As a son of a family and growing up in such an environment, it is not easy to have such eyes.

These two kids are very similar.

Xu Cen's eyes met with Emperor Jing'an's, and he lowered his head in a hurry: "I don't know what your Majesty wants? What should I do?"

Emperor Jing'an's tone was gentle and loving: "I want you to learn martial arts, to be Yanyang's secret guard, to clear all obstacles on the way for him, to keep him safe, and to protect him from worries all his life. I want you to be my eagle dog. "

Dark guard, you can't see the light.The person he misses every day is right in front of him, but he doesn't even have the right to go out into the sun and touch him.

He loves Yanyang, and he wants to walk side by side with him and give him support instead of being like a shadow, moving with the deflection of the sun?He wanted to love him openly.

"If the minister refuses to obey."

Emperor Jing'an curled his lips: "You can try it."

As soon as the words were spoken, three men in black tumbled down from the beams, their expressions were indifferent, like walking corpses.

Looking at their faces, it is clear that they are some military generals who have been missing for a long time!

When the current emperor ascended the throne? It was not all smooth sailing. The previous emperor had many heirs.These few people were the most vicious faction that opposed the Holy Majesty back then.

"You don't want to know what they went through. Death is the easiest thing. Yanyang who provoked me, I won't let you go so easily."

Emperor Jing'an gave him a look, and the three of them approached Xu Cen step by step.Emperor Jing'an continued to ask: "You, would you like to be my eagle dog and secretly guard my son?"

Xu Cen knelt down and said in a clear voice: "I don't want to! I want to guard His Highness the Crown Prince in an upright manner! I promised the Crown Prince that I want to guard this great Liang Jiangshan!"

Emperor Jing'an stood with his hands behind his back: "You have no strength to restrain a chicken, how can you protect my son?! What my son lacks is never a counselor."

Xu Cen gritted his teeth, thought for a moment, and said, "I would like to join the army and be the most capable general under the crown prince's command."

"Oh?" Emperor Jing'an looked at him quite playfully: "To be a general, you have to go to the battlefield. The frontier is far away from the capital, so it is even more difficult for you to see Yanyang. It is better to be a secret guard. Although you can't see him, you can watch in secret. It can also relieve your pain of lovesickness."

Xu Cen smiled wryly: "In this case, why should your majesty make things difficult for me? I know that you are so bold and reckless. Your majesty has kept me alive. I am very grateful. I am greedy. What I want is to help your majesty and see this wonderful river and mountain with him. Instead of looking at him in the dark. I want to accompany His Highness and walk in the sunshine together."

Emperor Jing'an glanced at him coldly: "You really want to have your cake and eat it too. Things in this world can't be so happy."

Xu Cen laughed: "That's why I say that I'm greedy. If I think I can do it, I will fight for it."

Emperor Jing'an looked at Xu Cen with a serious expression: "You always say you are good for my son and tell you to go? When the dark guard protects him, you dislike the dark guard and can't? Be upright with him. Then what do you want to do?! Fight on the battlefield to protect the family guard The country seeks fame?!"

Xu Cen's eyes were burning: "I really have this intention!"

Emperor Jing'an stood with his hands behind his back: "At this time? No, your family has been loyal and virtuous for generations, and they are all civil servants, and you are the only one in your family. If there is any difference, Taifu Xu will be heartbroken."

Speaking of his father, Xu Cen felt a little lost: "Father, my father will understand me. My father already knows my heart for the prince. Swords have no eyes. If I really come back? If I don't come back, that is also my fate. Serving the country If you die, your father will be proud of you."

Now that he had decided to go to the battlefield, Xu Cen decided to withdraw from the scientific research.The autumn is approaching, and Mr. Xu, who was one of the top picks, has withdrawn, which caused an uproar in the capital.

Not long after Yuan Yao returned to Beijing, his own medicine had some glitches and hurt himself, so he stayed in the East Palace for half a month to recover from his injuries.When he came out, he heard the news that Xu Cen had withdrawn from the scientific examination. He immediately spilled a cup of hot tea in his hand, stumbled and ran out, tripped over the corner of his clothes and even fell.

The injury on his calf didn't heal at first, and his knee was bruised again. By the time he ran out of the palace gate and climbed over the wall to the Xu Mansion, the prince's regular clothes made of brocade were no longer visible.

Yuan Yao no longer cared about the word image, and went to Xu Cen's room with ease, and when he found Xu Cen, he was questioned directly.

Xu Cen has been very leisurely the past few days, wearing an undershirt and a collared shirt loosely draped over him, sitting on a chair and fiddling with the hair on the table.

"Master Xu, what do you mean?"

Yuan Yao was so angry that his voice trembled and his fingers clenched tightly.

And Xu Cen's finger was still on the brush, rubbing the pen holder over and over again, his eyes were empty, he didn't know what he was thinking.After a long time, he slowly opened his mouth and said, "Yanyang, I may not be suitable for the imperial examination."

Yuan Yao was stunned, and his thin lips parted slightly: "How could it be? Did my father say something to you?"

Yuan Yao was the crown prince, and the people he accepted both openly and secretly were all acquiesced by Emperor Jing'an. He naturally knew what Emperor Jing'an wanted him to know, but Yuan Yao had no way of knowing what Emperor Jing'an didn't want.Those who are loyal to the crown prince are actually the most loyal courtiers of the emperor.

Yuan Yao didn't know anything about the secret conversation between Emperor Jing'an and Xu Cen.

Xu Cen closed his eyes, and let out a long breath: "Your Majesty didn't say anything to me, but Yanyang, you have a credible talent?"

Yuan Yao nodded, and said: "Everyone has different talents. If you force everyone to take the scientific examination, there will be grades and grades. It means that everyone is interested in this, and there are differences due to the difference in talent."

Xu Cen put down his hair, and said: "That's what I mean, I might? I have absolutely poor talent in official career, so it's a good thing for me to give up as soon as possible."

Although Yuan Yao guessed what Xu Cen would say, he was still surprised when he really heard what he said: "How come, your writing? All scholars in Caijing City can see it!"

Xu Cen shook his head and looked at Yuan Yao: "My father is a grand tutor, so I can't be a son? It's embarrassing for my father. The articles you see are all works that I painstakingly crafted. Yes, even so, I can only get a top prize in the Shangyuan Poetry Association, but I won’t get the top spot. I really don’t have any talent in this journey.”

Yuan Yao looked at Xu Cen with a dazed expression: "Then you insist on joining the army?"

Xu Cen said with a gentle smile, "Your Highness, serving the country is not the only way to go. Now I have chosen a more suitable path. I am willing to spend my whole life protecting my Datang."

Xu Cen has made up his mind, Yuan Yao knows that he can't keep him, all he can do is see him off.
