They all say I'm a puppet

It was still afternoon, but the sky was almost completely dark, cloudy and cloudy, which was obviously a sign of rain, and the weather was extremely hot and stuffy. Even though all the windows in the room were opened, there was still not a single bit of wind blowing in.

But Cang Lin didn't seem to feel it, and sat quietly in front of the desk, holding a letter in his hand, reading it with extra concentration.

A figure quietly came in from the window behind him, Cang Lin seemed not to notice, still focused on reading the letter.The figure hid itself in the corner of the wall, suddenly moved, and rushed towards Cang Lin. Cang Lin raised his hand without turning his head, blocking the opponent's blow, and then said lazily: "Master Xun, you Isn't it a little too busy?"

Xun Cheng curled his lips, went around and sat down opposite Cang Lin, and said, "You're too boring, no wonder you haven't been able to bring back your sweetheart for so long, I think the little emperor might think you're boring, I don't want to talk to you."

Cang Lin put down the letter in his hand, and looked up at Xun Cheng: "I think you are more boring, right? Every time you come here, the routine is the same. You come in through the window and attack you inexplicably. You are also a legitimate court official. I have been in my house countless times over the years, but I have never seen you walk through the door, and I often choose some strange time. Last time I came here in the middle of the night, just in time for the manager to get up at night, and I was almost scared to death by you when I was young."

Xun Cheng and Cang Lin never saw each other, and he didn't care when he heard his words. He poured himself a cup of tea and took a sip. Do you drink this kind of thing every day?"

Cang Lin raised his eyes casually: "Did I say that it was for myself?" He leaned back on the chair back, "Why don't you go to Mr. Su for tea and books today, and then to me What are you running for?"

"The two of us were drinking tea in a teahouse, but later people in their house called him away, saying that some cousin from his mother's family came to visit relatives, and hurried back." Speaking of this, he asked suspiciously, "Have you heard him mention his cousin before? You don't know how excited he was at that time," he suddenly thought, "Hey, I remember what kind of things these big families like. Cousins, cousins ​​and brothers kiss each other more, this cousin lady is not the wife his family found for him, right?"

Cang Lin raised his eyes, with a smile on his lips: "Then why don't you ask Mr. Su?"

Xun Cheng curled his lips: "Who would ask him this?" He picked up the tea bowl and took another sip, then spat out again.

Cang Lin couldn't help but bend his lips when he saw his appearance, he raised his hand to cover his eyes, stopped laughing after a long time, and said: "I don't know if Mr. Su has any cousins, but I know that he can make him a cousin." The only person who is so happy is his biological sister."

Xun Cheng raised his eyebrows, and suddenly realized that the former queen of the Su family had changed his identity. He naturally knew about it. He threw the tea bowl back on the table, and pretended to be casually glanced at Cang Lin: "You said that in the future Whether Su He or the little emperor finds out that you are the one who communicated with them, how will they deal with you?"

Cang Lin picked up the letter and glanced at it again, the corners of his mouth curled up: "I can handle it."

Xun Cheng shook his head, as if he didn't quite believe it. He stood up holding the desk, and looked at the letter curiously: "From the end of the year to the present, there have been several letters back and forth. It has been so long. , I don’t see any changes, I really wonder what you have written? Are you planning to rely on letters to comfort yourself from now on, and don’t expect to cheat people back?”

"It's just about the situation in the court, the battle between the crown prince and the king of Chu, the secret collusion between the crown prince and Su Kunming, the king of Jin either goes to the imperial tomb to oversee the work or hangs out with the young man in the mansion all day long, and he doesn't notice his innocence at all." How difficult the situation is." Cang Lin raised his eyes to look at him, "In fact, Mr. Su's reply letter only wrote these things, I just answered the question that he cared about most but didn't ask."

Xun Cheng stared at him for a while, and finally couldn't help but said: "Su He would never have thought that the years he taught you back then would be used by you to do this. And if that old fox Su Kun knew that you were trying to deceive your sweetheart When I return to Beijing, I will frame him in every possible way in the letter, maybe I will really stand by the prince in a fit of anger."

Cang Lin hooked his lips: "I am cooperating with Mr. Su. As long as I can sit on the throne and keep his Su family safe for a hundred years, I mean he will not care if he cheats and conceals crimes. As for Mr. Su, he will understand me." Speaking of this, he looked up at Xun Cheng, "And it won't be long, Fuyu will be back soon."

Xun Cheng raised his eyebrows in disdain: "Where did you get this illusion?"

Cang Lin shook the letter in his hand at him: "Of course it's from this letter." He lowered his eyes slightly, "Although he didn't say anything, I can see that he couldn't let it go, even if he felt that I was thinking about it that day. Staying by his side just to take advantage of him and want to help the He family get the throne, he still doesn't want me to live a bad life."

The heavy rain poured down outside the window, accompanied by lightning and thunder, covering Cang Lin's voice, but Xun Cheng still understood his words from his mouth: "So he will come back, no matter what reason he uses to convince himself , as long as he comes back, I will explain everything to him, I will forgive him for pretending to be taken advantage of, and I hope he can forgive me for deceiving me when I was young to protect myself."

"Although there are many misunderstandings, although we have missed it for a long time, we are still young after all, and there is still a lot of time to redeem."

Xun Cheng stared at him for a while, then raised the corners of his lips: "I really don't want to know what's so good about that little emperor that makes you so fond of it. But I also don't know what's so good about you. The little emperor finally escaped from the imperial city, and couldn't help but want to come back."

"He left the imperial city because he didn't want to be bound." Cang Lin said indifferently, "And now, even if he comes back, I will let him live freely."

Xun Cheng gave a "tsk" and waved his hand: "Forget it, leave these words for you to talk about after you come back. I really have nothing to do, so I came here to listen to you say this." "He looked around from the room, and saw Xiao Hei who was dozing in the corner, "Hey, my house is so empty that there is no one in it, lend me your bird and bring it back for a few days. Boredom?"

Cang Lin raised his eyebrows, his eyes locked on him, staring at his hands, it seemed that as long as Xun Chengzhen reached out to catch Xiao Hei, he didn't care at all to fight with Xun Cheng by the way: "Just try."

Xun Cheng glanced at him: "Dignified King Jin, so stingy." He stood up, stretched his waist, and when he turned his head to look at Cang Lin, a smile suddenly appeared on his lips, "Hey, by the way "Aren't the two young ladies that the crown prince sent you still in the mansion, what are you going to say when the Lord comes back?"

Cang Lin sat on the chair and looked at him with a smile: "What can I confess? Everyone knows that I have a deep-rooted affection for the former Emperor Chunxi. Although there are two more young men in the mansion, it is just It’s just that I go to sit occasionally to relieve my loneliness. To be honest, the people the prince is looking for are really good, one is good at playing the piano, and the other is good at painting, they are also quiet and don’t talk much, so it’s very worry-free.”

"That's it?" Xun Cheng raised his eyebrows and looked at Cang Lin's lower body, "Why don't I find a genius doctor to show you?"

Cang Lin picked up the inkstone on the table and threw it towards Xun Cheng. Xun Cheng quickly moved over, and the inkstone fell to the ground and broke into pieces.Xun Cheng glanced at it, and said disdainfully: "Look, is this embarrassment turned into anger? I don't even believe your words. Do you think you can deceive others?"

"He will believe it." Cang Lin said, "If you don't believe me, you can ask the supervisors, after all, they were all there at the time. As for the rumors outside," the corners of his mouth twitched, and he looked at Xun Cheng, "My two cheap brothers Just believe it."

Xun Cheng looked at Cang Lin for a while, then shook his head: "All the brains of the three He family brothers have grown on you, and your two cheap brothers who can only fight to the death are no match for you." At this point, he sniffled, "When you become the emperor in the future, I don't have any other demands, just give me some silver taels, let me eat and drink, and just travel around the mountains and rivers." After finishing speaking, he remembered something Added as if, "By the way, it's better to give you Mr. Su some kind of idle position, I promised him to show him around and gain some knowledge."

"You brought Mr. Su to gain knowledge?" Cang Lin chuckled, "When Mr. Su was a teenager, he traveled with people to study, and then he passed the examination and went to the Imperial Academy." Speaking of this, he shook his head, "However, this is a matter between you, so I won't ask about it."

Xun Cheng waved his hand: "Forget it, I can't tell which sentence of yours is true and which is false now." He looked out of the window with his head, "It's getting late, I'm leaving " As he said, his figure flashed, and then he flashed out of the window, and disappeared into the rain curtain before Cang Lin opened his mouth to stop him.

Cang Lin stood at the window and looked at it for a while, slightly tilted the corners of his lips, the heavy rain outside the window was still going on, and it was gloomy everywhere, looking a little scary, but Cang Lin didn't feel it, there was still a smile on his lips, and he didn't know Thinking of something, he finally raised his hand and closed the window, sat back at the desk again, and picked up the letter that he had read countless times.
