Behind Lin Xun was Lin Shaojin, who had gone to the Yong'an Marquis Mansion but didn't find anyone and had come to the Xie family to watch the fun.

"Uncle Wang, you're not jealous, are you?"

Lin Shaojin pretended to be shocked and looked at Lin Xun...

In fact, Lin Xun was wearing a mask, so his expression couldn't be seen clearly, but Lin Shaojin inexplicably smelled a sour taste in the air.

It's rare that Uncle Wang, who has always been pure and aloof from worldly affairs, actually has emotions similar to those of ordinary people?

Originally, Lin Shaojin was thinking about saying something funny in front of Lin Xun, but when Lin Xun glanced at him, he felt a chill on the back of his neck, and subconsciously said, "Uncle Wang, don't do that. They are siblings. It's a good thing that they can reconcile!"

Lin Xun was too lazy to pay attention to this noisy nephew.

The Xie family had just arrived in Kyoto when Xie's incident happened. The Xie family had to organize Xie's funeral and take care of everything, so it was inevitable that the doorman would make some mistakes.

So when Lin Xun and Lin Shaojin came for a while, the servants of the Xie family were all busy with their own things, and no one informed the master.

Lin Shaojin originally wanted to remind the Xie family, but Lin Xun said, "There's no need to mobilize so many troops."

Tianshu said, "The Xie family has just arrived in Kyoto and is very popular. The master wants to avoid suspicion, lest those old officials in the court always accuse the master of abusing his power for personal gain."

Lin Shaojin suddenly realized, and said, "So it's to avoid suspicion. I thought Uncle Wang was afraid of being stopped by the young masters of the Xie family to settle accounts because you kidnapped Xiao Xuetang."

Lin Shaojin has always had a casual personality. Although he was named King of Yue, it was because his mother's family, the Zheng clan, had made contributions in disaster relief in the south of the Yangtze River last year. In addition, he had no desire to fight for power, so he only held an idle position in the court.

Not having to do serious work means that Lin Shaojin has a lot of time to do unserious things - collecting gossip from various families.

"Although those people in Yong'an Marquis' Mansion dislike Xiao Xuetang, I heard that when the Xie family was in Kyoto, the young masters of the Xie family were very precious to her. This time, you quietly took the little cabbage of the Xie family. Master Xie is still in Dongshan, but I heard that the Xie family members are here, you have to be careful."

Lin Shaojin looked as if he was afraid of chaos in the world. Lin Xun looked at him meaningfully and said, "You have been very free recently."

Lin Shaojin didn't know why, but he suddenly had an uneasy feeling. He laughed dryly and said, "I was just joking. Uncle Wang, please don't mind."

"Am I that kind of petty person?"

Lin Xun patted his shoulder and smiled warmly: "You are not young anymore, so I have already told His Majesty today to choose a princess for you. Among the four major families of Cui, Ji, Wang, and Lu, tell me which one you like and I will definitely arrange it for you."

In an instant, Lin Shaojin's world collapsed!

……

At the same time, Xiao Xuetang in the inner hall gradually calmed down from crying. After coming to her senses, she felt a little embarrassed to see so many people looking at her. Not being able to find a handkerchief, she wiped the tears from her face with her sleeve.

Here, Lin Xun saw Xiao Xuetang's red eyes and stubborn look, which looked a bit pitiful. When he was about to hand her the handkerchief he had prepared, someone handed Xiao Xuetang a clean handkerchief before him...

"Little cat, wipe your face quickly."

The man looked to be in his twenties, about the same age as Lin Xun, but his temperament was gentler and more stable.

He was dressed in a blue robe, which seemed to be the purest blue of the beautiful sky. His every move was filled with indescribable elegance and grace.

Xiao Xuetang, who was always on guard, did not reject the man's approach. She took the handkerchief and blushed as she thanked him, "Thank you, cousin."

Lin Shaojin could no longer maintain the casual smile on his face. He took a deep breath and pulled Lin Xun: "Uncle Wang, this is just a cousin you grew up with. This is your first time visiting the Xie family. You must stay calm and don't destroy the Xie family."

Tianshu...

Your Highness the King of Yue, are you trying to persuade others or adding fuel to the fire?

Tianshu was silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke: "This eldest son of the Xie family, Xie Lanruo, was famous in Kyoto five years ago and was known as Master Lanluo. Even the cabinet, Elder Liu, who has always disliked our prince, also admired this Master Lanluo and wanted to take him as his apprentice."

Lin Shaojin looked at Tianshu with admiration.

This man is truly a warrior, as he can destroy his master's stage like this.

Tianshu gave Lin Shaojin a harmless smile in return...

While the two of them were arguing over their affair, Xiao Yu felt inexplicably jealous when he saw how Xiao Xuetang relied on Xie Lanruo.

He knew in his heart that Xiao Xuetang grew up in the Xie family when he was a child, and Xie Lanruo had always had a gentle temper and took good care of his younger brothers and sisters.

Compared to him, Xie Lanruo is more like a qualified brother...

Thinking of this, Xiao Yu felt a sense of inexplicable loss in his heart.

If he had shown more concern and trust in Xiao Xuetang like Xie Lanruo did, perhaps his mother would not have died...

At this moment, a neatly folded white handkerchief was handed to Xiao Yu.

"It's fine if Tangtang cries, but after all these years, how come cousin Yu is still as crybaby as he was when he was little?"

Xiao Yu!!!

"puff."

Everyone laughed instantly. Xiao Yu originally wanted to act like a brother, but after hearing what Xie Lanruo said, his expression instantly became a little embarrassed and he said, "Cousin, stop talking nonsense."

At this moment, the depressed and sad look on Xiao Yu's face completely faded away, and he showed a rare youthful look.

At this time, the second wife of the Xie family came and said, "There is tea and snacks in the backyard. Let's go to the backyard to talk."

The second wife of the Xie family came from a prominent family and had a gentle and considerate personality. She was worried that Xiao Xuetang and Xiao Yu would hurt themselves from crying, so she took Xiao Xuetang's arm and walked along the corridor toward the backyard, without noticing Lin Xun standing in the corner of the yard.

Lin Xun was originally worried that Xiao Xuetang would be sad when she saw Xie's mourning hall at Xie's house after recovering from a serious illness, and no one would comfort her. But seeing that Xie's family was different from the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion and took great care of her, he was relieved and said, "Let's go back too."

The Xie family's visit to Kyoto this time is not as simple as Xie Yuhong's reinstatement, it may involve some old events during the reign of Emperor Huaimin.

The exile of Marquis Yong'an is not the end, but the beginning of everything!

So after Xie Yuhong came to Beijing, Lin Xun had to keep a certain distance from the Xie family.

Therefore, he definitely did not leave because he was worried about how to get along with the Xie family...

Xiao Xuetang didn't notice Lin Xun, but Xie Lanruo saw him clearly. She only heard him say, "Is it His Royal Highness the Regent?"

Before everyone could react, Xie Lanruo took the lead and stepped forward to greet Lin Xun, saying, "I didn't know that the two princes had come. I'm sorry for being so inconsiderate. Please forgive me."

Xie Lanruo's voice instantly drew everyone's attention away to Lin Xun...
