The emperor's heart alone

Xu Tao urged him for a long time, until Xu Yunjin showed impatience on his face, and then Xu Tao let Xu Yunjin leave.Qingpei was guarding outside Xu Tao's study, and when she saw Xu Yunjin coming out, she whispered next to Xu Yunjin: "Second Young Master Zhao came to see you, and he is now in your bedroom."

Xu Yunjin pursed his lips and walked towards his bedroom.

"Shouldn't you be busy in Xu's mansion at this time? Why come to me when you have time?" Xu Yunjin entered the room, saw Zhao Ershao standing in front of the window, and smiled first, and patted Zhao Ershao on the shoulder .

Zhao Ershao turned his head from the window, his face startled Xu Yunjin: "Why is your face so ugly? Even if you are not happy at this time, you shouldn't be sad." Xu Yunjin thought for a while, "Could it be that your father has done something to you again? Stumbled?"

Zhao Ershao took a deep breath: "He wants to adopt me."

Xu Yunjin, who began to change clothes under Qingpei's service, paused, and waved away Qingpei who stepped forward to untie his belt: "You said, your father wants to adopt you?" Xu Yunjin laughed, "Who will you adopt?"

Zhao Ershao glanced at Xu Yunjin: "When is this, can you still laugh? To whom? You can guess. It's not my father's younger brother."

Xu Yunjin thought for a while, and suddenly realized: "You mean your father's younger brother who has passed forty years and is still unmarried, who has nothing to do and relies on your father's supplies?"

Zhao Ershao said disgustedly: "It's not him!"

Xu Yunjin rubbed his chin: "I remember he has a son."

"There is a son, but it was born to him by a prostitute." Speaking of this, Zhao Ershao's face became more and more ugly, "My father is the first wife, and his brother is the second wife. What my father means is that the second wife There is no wife, no son, and no successor, so a son is given up from the first house to adopt to the second house, so that the second house can have an offspring."

"It's a joke!" Xu Yunjin sneered, "Even if he is adopted, he is still the concubine of the adoptive family. I really have never heard of giving it to the second family and giving it to the concubine. If you say it, the entire Daping Dynasty will laugh your ass off! Da Fang But with you as a legitimate son, your father wants to adopt you because he wants your elder brother to be the eldest son of the eldest son?"

Zhao Ershao went to the table irritably, sat down and stood up again, his undulating chest showed that Zhao Ershao was not at peace in his heart: "What else can I think? Now Mr. Zhao has appointed that the fire can't be covered with paper, He was trying to save him."

"You mean..." Xu Yunjin hesitated for a moment, "It is reasonable to say that your father's branch has only one legitimate son and one concubine son, and your elder brother is also a concubine even though he is the eldest, so he is not qualified to inherit the Zhao family. Xi, I will let you inherit in the future, and your elder brother will not get too much of the family property. But if your father adopts you to the second wife, you will lose the right to inherit the eldest son, and the Zhao family will be your elder brother It's gone."

"It's more than that." Zhao Ershao sneered, "The emperor will definitely ask about the cheating in the township examination. Even if the emperor doesn't hold my father accountable, my elder brother will definitely not be able to escape, but if everyone in my Zhao family just There is only one son left..."

Xu Yunjin snorted and said: "The abacus is very good. The emperor has no plans to replace the Minister of the Ministry of officials. If your father really insists on this, even the emperor will have to back down a step. Once his life is safe, the limelight will pass in the future." Now, the Zhao family doesn't belong to your eldest brother?"

Xu Yunjin squinted at Zhao Ershao: "If you are a man, don't be a mother-in-law. You wanted to let them go, but they wanted to kill you. You really can bear it." Xu Yunjin put the teacup on the table to him My eyes were parallel, and I was a little dazed, and said softly, "You have to think about it, is it you, Zhao Ershao, who got the whole Zhao family and didn't give it to your so-called big brother, or your big brother and your father's concubine got you Everything will drive you out of Zhao Mansion, the choice is in your hands, if you choose wrong, you can’t blame others.”

Zhao Ershao was silent for a while, and smiled wryly: "I, Zhao Ershao, the name of the Fifth Young Master of Beijing, is not just called casually. You gave me two choices, so you know which one I should choose, don't you?" Looking intently at Xu Yunjin , sighed, "You are always like this, you always do things very well, I really don't know what you are thinking."

"What am I thinking?" Xu Yunjin raised his eyebrows, "If you know what I'm thinking, I'm not Xu Ershao, but you are." Xu Yunjin stood up, "Leave this matter to me, no, hand it over to me." Let Young Master Su do it, you wait for my news, oh, by the way, I don't want you to let you adopt to your father's younger brother before I get the evidence."

"Don't worry, I still have this ability, then," Zhao Ershao took a deep look at Xu Yunjin, "I'm leaving."

Xu Yunjin motioned for Qingpei to see off the guests, and frowned to let Qinghuan come in to change his clothes.Letting Qinghuan change his clothes, Xu Yunjin looked forward and became dazed. This official minister was smarter than he thought. He originally wanted to kill Mr. Zhao at once, but he didn't expect that the official minister would fight back against him. However, the corner of Xu Yunjin's mouth twitched into a smile. He originally wanted to make a living with them, but now it seems that they don't want it anymore. In this case, don't blame him for not giving them face for Zhao Ershao's sake .

What Xu Yunjin likes most is to hide himself behind the scenes, which is the kind of deep behind the scenes that most people would never think of. He likes to see himself playing with others in the palm of his hand, which makes him deeply moved Fascinated, but this gluttonous feast hasn't started yet, he is not in a hurry, just like you have to let him grow to a certain level before you want to eat lobster, so it can be delicious, isn't it?

No matter what kind of dire situation the Zhao Mansion is in now, it has nothing to do with Xu Yunjin. Xu Yunjin is now in a good mood and has come to Donglaiju for lunch. Xu Yunjin doesn't know whether the food cooked in Donglaiju is in line with the taste of the entire capital. Absolutely, you can't expect that a restaurant opened by a person who is not short of money will not meet your own taste, so Xu Yunjin likes to come and live in Donglai very much.

According to the usual habits, Xu Yunjin entered Donglai Residence and went directly to his private room on the second floor, but was stopped by someone on the way, he was still an acquaintance.

"Xu Ershao, my master is inside, please go in."

Xu Yunjin looked at Xu Sa who was very respectful in front of him: "No, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat at the same table with your master, so let's eat separately." Then, he used his fan to push Xu Sa who was in front of him, Xu Sa didn't move at all.

Xu Sa bowed even lower, but her tone was firm: "Second Young Master Xu, my master invites you in."

This time without waiting for Xu Yunjin to say anything else, the Qing Pei behind Xu Yunjin stepped in front of Xu Yunjin, and said in a deep voice: "My master can't say it, please respect yourself."

What Qingpei didn't expect was that Xu Yunjin pushed himself to the back, only to hear Xu Yunjin whisper: "You and Qinghuan go to my private room and wait for me, I will go back." She raised her head at Xu Sa, " lead the way."

Xu Sa bowed and led the way, Xu Yunjin gave Qinghuan Qingpei a reassuring look, and followed Xu Sa to Shi Junji's place.

Shi Junji still came out by himself this time, bringing Zhang Dequan and Xu Sa along because Xu Sa was already an acquaintance in front of Xu Yunjin, so it doesn't mean that Shi Junji came to find Xu Yunjin on purpose, unconsciously More or less.

So I walked and walked, and for some reason appeared in Donglaiju again. I didn’t know why I was hungry when I walked to Donglaiju. Looking down from the window on the second floor and seeing Xu Yunjin entering Donglaiju, Shi Jun was very happy, with a wave of his hand, Xu Sa came to find Xu Yunjin with Shi Junji's will.

Xu Sa opened the door of the private room, Xu Yunjin entered the private room calmly, saw Shi Junji with a smile on his face at a glance, chose a seat farthest from Shi Junji and sat down, and asked politely : "What do you want me to do?"

Shi Jun shook his head amusedly: "Could it be that I can't talk to you if I have nothing to do?" He patted the seat beside him, "Sit here."

Xu Yunjin just pretended not to see it, glanced at the untouched dishes on the table, and started to eat unceremoniously. He came to live in the east to eat, so he didn't have time to talk to Shi Junji about what was there.

Shi Junji was not annoyed, he got up and sat beside Xu Yunjin, and beckoned someone to call Xiaoer in: "These meals are cold, ask someone to serve some other dishes before eating, so as not to have a stomachache after eating."

Hearing this, Xu Yunjin put his chopsticks on the table, of course he would eat hot ones, and he was not a masochist who had to eat other people's leftovers.Shi Junji was very close, Xu Yunjin tried to stay as far away from Shi Junji as possible: "Stay away from me."

Shi Junji didn't say anything yet, Xu Sa's expression changed when he was standing at the door, how many people dare to talk to the emperor like that?Isn't that tired of living!Compared with Zhang Dequan's calm expression of "I didn't hear anything", it seems that Xu Sa's journey as a great eunuch still has some time to go.

Shi Junji didn't care, and mentioned the jade pendant last time: "I heard from Xu Sa that you dropped that jade pendant, do you not like that style?"

Xu Yunjin snorted: "Jade is a good jade, but it's a pity that you gave it to me. I won't accept it."

The smile on Shi Junji's face froze slightly, and he waved to Zhang Dequan, Zhang Dequan took out a brocade box from his sleeve knowingly and handed it to Shi Junji, Shi Junji pushed the brocade box in front of Xu Yunjin: "Open it and have a look. "

Xu Yunjin glanced at Shi Junji suspiciously, and opened the brocade box in front of him. Inside was a jade wrench, warm white all over with scattered red silk, Xu Yunjin frowned.

This kind of jade has a name here, called Hongsi Nuanyu.Warm white is mostly used as the base. The more red silk, the higher the grade, and it has the effect of warming the body in winter. The ancients once said that "jade, warm jade is the best, and red silk warm jade is the best." This shows that red silk warm jade degree of preciousness.The period when the red silk warm jade appeared most was in the An Dynasty, which has a history of 1000 years. The red silk warm jade has been handed down to this day and is becoming more and more precious.
